Use the XP System To Build the Devil City

Ainz could naturally control the size of these things.

"This is miasma. Don't get too close, it's poisonous to the living."

Just like dark magic can cast a curse on cells.

Miasma is more harmful than human beings.

If you get too close, you will have headaches, chest tightness, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms.

Those with poor resistance will faint, and it is not surprising to die directly.

Ainz tried to expand the miasma, let it adhere to the whole body, and no longer deliberately suppressed the existence of the miasma as usual.

In an instant, everyone frowned.

Ainz's presence, who gave the impression of being easy-going, magnified hundreds of times in an instant.

The swordsman tower with black smoke and dust attached to it turned into a huge monster, spreading its arms to cover the sun, leaving only despair to the world.

Everyone was overwhelmed by this powerful presence.

The living's instinctive fear of the dead is like gushing magma, which emerges uncontrollably.

His body became more and more uncomfortable, his heart beat faster, and he felt that his heart was being squeezed by a pair of invisible hands, and the cold blood was about to be frozen.

Everyone deeply realized that Ainz was a real lich.

And the lich is a real monster.

"Because it's miasma, not flames, so you don't have to worry about your clothes being burned. It's okay to attach it to your body like this. However, only magic masters can freely retract and release the miasma. Most necromancers can't freely control the miasma. They just open the miasma fully." The appearance of it. This is why the existence of the undead makes the living instinctively disgusted."

The living are afraid of the undead, not only because of ideas, but also because of the physical level of miasma.

Miasma is like an insect repellant, driving the living away from the dead.

It feels like a stress regime.

Li Muran feels weird to use science to explain magic.

After demonstrating the effect of the miasma, Ainz put away the miasma.

As the black flame-like thing disappeared from the clothes of Swordsman Tower, the invisible sense of oppression in the room also disappeared.

Li Muran specifically told Ainz to pay attention to controlling the miasma when he was active in the Demon King's City. It's not good to scare children or something.

Ainz readily agreed.

Using miasma to attach to the bones is the first step in completing necromancy.

That is often said to control the skeleton.

Having said that, Li Muran raised a question.

"Is it necessary to attach the miasma to the bones? Isn't it possible to use dark magic? How about attaching the miasma to something other than the bones?"

Ainz gave an affirmative answer.

"Yes. It has to be bones. Nothing else. And it has to be miasma. It can't be dark magic."

Dark magic can also be attached to props.

It's like attaching wind magic to arrows to enhance the range and power of bows and arrows.

Li Muran can also attach dark magic to a sword or shovel to increase its power.

It can also be attached to your whole body.

At this time, the dark magic will become armor, which provides more attack power when protecting Li Muran.

And this way of using magic is called 'blessing' magic.

Although according to the attributes of magic, the specific methods and difficulty are also different. But 'blessing' magic can be regarded as a common usage of all types of magic.

Ainz explained again.

"Blessing magic is just to strengthen the props and strengthen oneself. The props still need to be operated by people. But the skeletons summoned by necromantic magic can move by themselves. This is the essential difference between the two kinds of magic."

Blessing magic is like wrapping a layer of iron on the outside of the stick, or wearing an armor for yourself, making the stick or yourself stronger.

The stick doesn't move by itself and needs to be used by the caster to function.

But necromantic magic does make the corpse move by itself.

As long as the caster gives the order, the corpse can act by itself.

Of course, there are many other factors that affect the combat effectiveness of bones.

The magical strength of the caster, the strength of the bone itself, the strength of the soul fragment (memory of life), the equipment of the skeleton, etc.

But these two kinds of magic are fundamentally different.

"The reason why it must be bones, not tables, chairs, and wooden sticks, is also because the body is the container of the soul. On the bones, there are fragments of the soul. It can also be understood as the memory and experience of this person. This is to let the bones themselves The key to getting moving."

"The bones have the memory of the dead, so they can make actions that conform to our cognition. But the tables and chairs have no memory, and they cannot make actions that conform to common sense."

The bone can walk and raise its hand because it has such a memory.

It did so in life. Know it's the right thing to do.

Different bones cooperate with each other to make complex movements.

And wrong memory, it is impossible to complete complex actions.

Tables, chairs, and wooden sticks have no memory of life, so it is impossible to cooperate naturally like bones, and then make complex movements.

Even if the table and chairs are assembled into a human shape, it still cannot perform human-like movements.

Therefore, necromancer magic has only used bones since ancient times, not anything else.

"Bones are the second necessary medium for the completion of necromancy. There is nothing else. Moreover, it does not conform to common sense when other things move. It is better to say that the common sense of necromancers rejects tables and chairs. .So nobody does it either.”

This argument is equally convincing.

"According to my research, even if you master the method of converting dark magic into miasma and bones at the same time, you may not be able to complete necromancy. It also requires corresponding magic and a certain amount of luck."

"Even if the necromancy spell is successful, the quality of the summoned undead is also different. It can be roughly divided into two types, and they will only act when they are manipulated. Skeletons like puppets. This type of skeleton is also the most common and basic miscellaneous soldier. There is also a more advanced class that has independent intelligence and can make judgments and actions on its own, just like me. This type should be called skeleton warriors, or skeleton heroes."

The key to making the two different skeletons is the quality of the soul attached to the bone.

The longer the soul is away, that is, the longer the death time, the easier it is to summon the first type of skeleton.

The shorter the death time, and those who had a strong will and strong obsession during their lifetime, the easier it is to summon the second type of skeleton.

Because the skeleton acts according to the memory of his life.

So it will inherit part of the experience in life.

Therefore, necromancers like to use the bones of soldiers for necromantic summoning, so that the summoned skeletons, whether they are the first or the second type, have much higher combat effectiveness than civilian skeletons.

"This can be called an elite skeleton."

"Li Muran is right."

Li Muran and Ainz chatted with gusto.

But the others couldn't help but frown because they were so happy chatting about the evil ability of necromancy.

Li Muran, who was in high spirits, didn't care about the way other people looked at him, and continued to ask.

"Since I can inherit part of the memory. Does that mean that the craftsman's skeleton will also do the craftsman's work? I have a bold idea again."

As soon as Li Muran finished speaking, the others wailed in unison.

"Again, here again. Li Muran's super abnormal divergent thinking."

Ainz laughed mechanically.

"In theory, it is possible. But in reality, after death, many things will be forgotten. For example, me. The longer I die, the more I forget. So I don't guarantee that it will be easy to use. Besides, the Necromancer never thought of getting a skeleton. Technology only cares about the fighting power of skeletons. Necromancers only pay attention to the part of fighting instinct, and it is also the instinct that is most likely to be preserved. I haven't heard of such things as Li Muran said."

"Has anyone tried it? Interesting."

Everyone saw Li Muran's expression of eagerness to try, and secretly urged Bella to tighten the chain around Li Muran's neck.

"Master Bella, it's up to you. Be sure to hold him back."

"Lord Li Muran is the kind of person who will really do what he says. Before he grows into a public enemy of the world and becomes even more evil, you must stop him."

"Master Bella, the fate of the world depends on you."

Bella swallowed and nodded nervously.

"I know, I know. Leave it to me."

The effect of necromancy is related to the material itself, and more importantly, the quality of the caster.

Not just any dark magician can become a necromancer.

There are very few dark magicians with dark magic talents, and even fewer can become necromancers.

"Can't anyone do it?"

"Of course, necromancers are rare. Dark elves are experts in dark magic. I think everyone's aptitude for dark magic is pretty good. But have you seen any necromancers among the dark elves?"

That being said, it is true.

The dark elves know dark magic, and many of them are masters.

And none of these dark elves were necromancers.

Even Tuyang, who can swing the bow left and right, has no chanting, and has high attainments in hand-to-hand combat and magic ability, doesn't know necromancer magic.

It seems that necromancy has its own uniqueness.

When Ainz said this, he suddenly felt that necromantic magic became more mysterious and powerful, just like the top martial arts in Jin Yong's novels, which made Li Muran more interested.

"I want to learn a little bit."

Li Muran unconsciously spoke his mind.

He himself didn't react too violently, and frightened the other cadres who were in the meeting together.

"Lord Li Muran has started to challenge the field of uncommon sense again."

"We dark elves don't even dare to have such thoughts. He is going further and further down the road of not being a human being."

"One, how can a decent family learn such crooked martial arts, no, magic? It's too nonsense."

"Master Bella. There is nothing we can do. You should persuade Master Li Muran to be a human being."

"You can tell by the look in his eyes that he is serious. If it becomes like this, I probably won't be able to persuade him."

Everyone's reaction was overwhelming.

Li Muran still didn't care.

What's wrong with wanting to learn necromancy?

As a magician, isn't it normal to want to learn more and more advanced magic?

It is the instinct of all scholars to explore higher realms.

This is no different from carpenters who can't walk when they see new carpentry skills.

Didn't Tuyang and other dark elves all feel happy when they heard that Ainz would teach everyone new magic?

Based on this inference, what's wrong with Li Muran learning necromancy?

Although it is true that it is not as sacred and righteous as light magic in terms of image, it will also make people feel uncomfortable.

There is a feeling of breaking the rules and going against the customs.

But powerful and practical.

To put it bluntly, why do you have to pay attention to rules in a different world where there are no rules? It is very strange.

Pragmatic Li Muran has always felt that as long as it can be used by me, it can make me stronger and can be used to protect my important things, and the form is secondary.

More importantly, this is necromantic magic.

It is the magic mastered by powerful villains in different world works.

Don't you think it's very romantic?

The image is evil all the better.

Magic is for enemies.

The more disgusting the enemy is, the more effective it will be.

Only fools have to take into account the enemy's preferences when fighting the enemy.

Why do my moves have to make the enemy feel comfortable and elegant? Of course, it is to disgust the opponent vigorously.

Li Muran does not have the old tradition of being imprisoned by thoughts like Tuyang and the others.

Since his attribute is dark magic, Li Muran just wants to maximize the potential of the attribute.

This is the way to survive in this world full of crises.

The shooting range is the range of truth, and only with a hard fist can one be qualified to pursue justice.

Without strength, no matter how gorgeous the moves are, no matter how decent the style is, it will definitely end up in a miserable slump in the end.

The enemy will not reason with you. It is not because you pay attention to principles and respect traditional moves and beautiful moves that they will not stop hitting you.

They will only step on your dead body and laugh at your pedantry after killing you.

Can't protect family, friends, can't protect yourself, everything is bullshit.

Magic is meant to kill. The effect is always the first element to judge whether the magic is strong or not.

Finally, isn't necromancy or something very suitable for the image of the Demon King's Army?

After thinking about it this way, I feel that whatever suits me. It is simply tailor-made for Li Muran.

After learning magic that no one else knows, you can still pretend to be aggressive.

It's hard not to be interested.

"It's started again. His set of arguments is obviously fallacious, but it sounds reasonable."

"I can't say it, Mr. Li Muran. Common sense has been distorted again."

"I was led by him, and I began to want to recognize his ideas. The ability to influence other people's thoughts is as strong as ever."

"Tch, it's the place where he is obviously resisting but has to admit him is the most annoying."

"I have to admit that what Li Muran said makes sense, this is what makes me feel most uncomfortable."

"Brother Li Muran's mouth is as powerful as ever. In my opinion, compared with necromancer magic, this is your greatest weapon. This is your own business, and it is inconvenient for me to talk too much."

"Master Tucker, you gave up too quickly. Don't run away."

In short, Li Muran fought against the heroes with his tongue, and once again forcibly rejected the opinions of all the people, standing on the commanding heights of public opinion.

Let everyone accept and recognize that they are interested in necromancy.

The big devil Tucker has slipped away. Bella also said that Li Muran, who was serious, would not listen to anyone.

Everyone can only pin their hopes on Ainz.

Ainz understood everyone's thoughts and extended the topic further.

"Li Muran's idea of ​​learning necromancer has been conveyed to me. But as I said just now, not everyone can become a necromancer. Dark magicians need strict conditions to be promoted to necromancers. This is why dark magicians There's no reason why elves don't have a single necromancer."
