Chapter 262: Chapter 262: Powerful Element

With a flick of his wrist, he summoned a faint aura of blue energy around him. His sharp gaze then shifted, searching for any signs of life—or undeath.

He spotted one of Gu Jin’s skeleton warriors creeping in the shadows.

Without a second thought, he unleashed a powerful burst of energy, and the skeleton crumbled into dust and disintegrated in an instant.

"Pathetic," he muttered.

One by one, the blue-hair man moved through the underground tunnel, finding and destroying each of the skeleton warriors that Gu Jin had positioned.

His movements were swift.

The skeletons fell apart, their bones scattering across the ground, unable to withstand the power of a False Heaven Rank parasite.

All the humans who were tied down were shocked by the blue-hair parasites’s move.

They were excited that someone had come to save them but now seeing the blue-hair parasites killing all the skeleton warrior, their heart was filled with despair.

Just then a whistle sounded which not only attracted the attention of the humans but also the blue-hair parasites.

When the blue-hair parasite turned around he saw a figure walking out of the tunnel he had seen Gu Jin earlier.

The figure moved with eerie grace, their face hidden beneath the hood of the cloak. T

hey raised a hand, and with a quick, fluid motion, they threw a pair of gloves toward the blue-hair man.

The blue-hair man caught the gloves in mid-air, inspecting them with mild curiosity. They were sleek, black, and exuded a strange energy.

"And what is this?" he asked, his voice tinged with amusement. "A gift?"

The black-cloaked figure remained silent, their head tilted slightly as if observing him closely.

One of the humans couldn’t bear to see the blue-hair man’s dumbness and said,

"He is challenging you."

The blue hair man chuckled,

"Is that so? Great then we could fight-"

However before he could finish his words the black cloaked figure started to run away.

Seeing this the blue hair man shook his head,

"I thought you were courageous, since you dared to challenge me, but who would have thought that you be will scared even before I can move?

But now that you have challenged me...you can’t take it back."

Toward the end a chilly smile appeared on the blue hair man and he started to chase the black cloaked figure.

The other soldiers on the floor were disappointed when they saw the black cloaked figure running away.

"Uh! I thought we were finally going to be saved."

"I can’t believe...I thought we were going to be saved..."

"Are we truly going to die today?"

"Yes...from the start I could feel the cultivation of the black cloaked figure. It was at Advanced Rank. From the start we didn’t have the chance to win."

"Exactly. Not to mention for some reason that high rank parasite have magic power too!"

"It is as if even the god wants us dead."

Uncertainity and the fear of death enveloped the soldiers. For a moment they wished the god would descend and save them.

But to their dismay, even when someone arrived to save them, they ran away.

Just as they were wallowing in their misery, 10 dead soldiers started to rise from the ground.

The flesh of the soldiers started to melt away and only their skeleton remained.

This scene stunned and frighetend all the soldiers.

"What is that? Sh*t! Is the parasites not enough?"

"We are going to die! Boohoo! We are going to die! Ahhh!"

"Is the parasites controlling these skeletons? Do they want to use this skeleton to kills us all?"

However the parasites were equally confused and looked at the skeleton warily.

Before anyone could react, the skeleton warrior started to march toward the humans.

"Ahhh! They are going to kill us! They are going to kill us!"

"Run!"

However the soldiers were restrained and could hardly move. When the skeleton reached near one of the soldier, the solider closed his eyes as if he was making a great sacrifice and said,

"Nan’er I am sorry, I couldn’t fulfill the promise! I am sorry that I can’t marry you now..."

Clang.

A metallic voice sounded and the solider slowly opened his eyes, expecting the King of Hell to be right in front of him and sharp pain on her neck.

However...he only saw the skeleton moving to next human.

Hm?

"Eh?"

The soldier realised something. The chain around his hand was cut off!

"My hands...Ahh! They are on our side!"

The other soldiers had already seen this scene and were filled with hope.

The parasites understanding that then skeleton warrior wasn’t on their side started to attack the skeleton.

They were so interested in a killing those skeleton warrior that they didn’t notice...that one by one many of the parasites were falling and more skeleton warrior were rising.

Gu Jin knew that compared to the skeleton warrior at the entrance of the magic academy who have the mana artifact and could continue to attack without any cooldown period, the skeleton warrior in the underground tunnel didn’t have this advantage.

They can just fight for the next 2 hours, before they rest like any other mage to recover mana.

There was also some humans whose only half of the body was preserved. They didn’t retain any magic at all.

So Gu Jin could only used them as a shield to those skeleton warrior who retained some of the magic.

Thankfully, the best part of the necromancy element was, even after a skeleton warrior is ’killed’ they can again be resurrected.

Earlier Gu Jin always thought that the necromancy element was one of the most stupidest and disadvantageous element.

But now...Gu Jin understood how overpowering it was.

She could call out other Skeleton Warrior of her own, use the mana artifact and may even conquer the nation.

It may sound absurd...but the advantages of the nercomancy element were too....powerful.

She only needs to absorb the life force from the parasites and use it to make a skeleton warrior who has the power of Super Rank.

Once she repeats this 5000 times to 10,000 times, she could rival the military. Maybe she will surpass the military too.

After all, the skeleton warrior awakened by her, not only could never die or age but the mana artifact they can attack continuously too!

The one thing that Gu Jin likes even more is that...she can stored all these skeleton warrior in her space till she reaches the advanced rank. Once on the advanced rank she could gain a separate undead space to store these skeleton warrior.

This means she will never have to start again from 0. Her army will only increase over the period of time.

These were the advantage of necromancy element...the real power of the necromancy element.

Now she understood as to why the space insisted that her necromancy element was powerful.

Gu Jin’s body trembled with excitement and she continued to make more and more skeleton warrior.

The parasites soon noticed that something was amiss.

Their number was decreasing as the time passed. It was original around 100 or so, but now...it had reduced to 50 or so.

Gu Jin gritted her teeth. Even though she was trying her best it would still take a long time.

"Looks like I have no option."

She was about to knock all the soldiers out when suddenly her face lit up.

Form her connection with other skeleton warriors, she realized that the war on the entrance of magic academy had died down.

500,000 parasites were eliminated.

Gu Jin didn’t believe that such a significant loss won’t affect the parasite army at all.

She called those skeleton warriors and asked them to bring the mana artifact with them.

With a rough estimation, Gu Jin reached as conclusion...

Her skeleton warriors at the entrance of magic acadmey would reach in the underground tunnel only after half at an hour or 20 minutes.

Till then she needs to hold on.

She quickly came with a stragey and used one of the skeleton warrior to say to the soldiers,

"I want everyone’s corporation in dealing with this parasites. If all can contribute in the fight, I can hold the high rank parasite."

The soldiers were stunned to hear the hoarse voice of the skeleton warrior, it took them some times to come to their sense but once they did, they hurriedly nodded,

"Sure."

The soldiers, though still shaken and exhausted, realized that this was their best chance of survival.

They quickly steeled themselves, preparing to fight alongside the skeleton warriors.

The room, once filled with despair, now buzzed with determination.

The skeleton warriors, animated by Gu Jin’s necromantic power, moved with eerie precision.

Those equipped with magic power led the charge, using what limited spells they had to disrupt the parasite’s movements.

Meanwhile, the other, less magical skeletons formed a defensive perimeter, shielding the soldiers and buying time for Gu Jin.
