15: The Perspective of the Dead

On the third floor of the teaching building where Gu Qinghan had been having class, Tian Tian and Tao Yu were waiting with worried expressions, watching the rift in front of them.

Suddenly, the rift writhed, and like throwing out trash, it spat a person out.

The two immediately looked over. Who else could the person thrown out be but Gu Qinghan?

After landing, Gu Qinghan immediately began to check his necromantic space.

After confirming that he hadn't brought out the equipment from those weapon racks, he sighed with some disappointment.

Following that, his four skeletons were spat out, but the weapons in their hands had also vanished.

Seeing Gu Qinghan's disappointed expression, Tian Tian asked with concern, "What's wrong? Did you fail?"

Gu Qinghan shook his head. "It was a success."

"Then why are you…"

"It's nothing, nothing. It's just a bit of a pity…"

Gu Qinghan waved his hand, then immediately turned to look at the rift that had previously been constantly spitting out zombies.

He saw that after spitting out Gu Qinghan and the skeletons, the rift was gradually shrinking, as if a zipper were being slowly pulled shut.

In just over ten seconds, the rift vanished completely, as if it had never appeared at all.

Even the bloodstains and zombie corpses on the ground disappeared along with the rift.

"Alright, there are no more zombies on this floor."

Gu Qinghan smiled and spread his hands towards the two.

Tian Tian let out a joyful shriek and wanted to hug Gu Qinghan, but the latter dodged it directly.

Tao Yu also had a look of joy on his face and wanted to say something, but his stomach let out a loud rumble.

Gu Qinghan glanced at him and immediately laughed, "It's also time to find something to eat. I'm hungry too."

He looked around this floor; there were almost no zombies left.

And he was now only a tiny bit of necromantic energy away from level 5. Once he reached level 5, he could equip that apprentice staff!

By then, his combat power would directly reach 35 points, and he would even be able to have three more skeletons!

A full seven skeletons with combat power around forty points should be an invincible force at the current stage.

Thinking of this, he opened a window and looked down.

This window faced the flower bed downstairs, where quite a few zombies were wandering around.

With his command, two skeletons jumped down from the window ledge.

As a result, after the two skeletons landed, they almost shattered into a pile of bone fragments.

Fortunately, their frames were sturdy enough; after crawling up from the ground, they slaughtered the surrounding zombies.

In less than two minutes, Gu Qinghan finally lit up the fourth soul fire and successfully reached level five!

He immediately equipped the apprentice staff, and seeing his combat power become 35 points, he immediately felt much safer.

He quickly summoned two more skeletons, but discovered that the combat power of these skeletons was only 25 points.

"It seems the attributes of the summoned skeletons are only equal to my base combat power and cannot include the values brought by equipment."

Actually, thinking about it carefully, this was quite reasonable.

After all, if he were to obtain a piece of equipment that greatly increased combat power, wouldn't his skeletons simply take off?

Gu Qinghan saw with his own eyes that one of his skeletons struck twice with its club, and an ordinary zombie was beaten to death.

"Wait, what was the enhancement effect of the fourth soul fire again?"

Gu Qinghan suddenly remembered something and looked directly at his panel.

As it turned out, the soul fire this time did not bring any enhancement, but rather a new skill.

[Vision of the Dead: The power from death brings joy to your subjects; you can gain the vision of any one of your subjects.]

"It's not a combat skill, but it seems it can be used for reconnaissance…"

He immediately used this skill. He felt a wave of dizziness, and in the next second, he saw himself in his field of vision.

This was a very strange feeling, as if he had gained a third-person perspective and was spying on himself from the side.

Gu Qinghan turned his head involuntarily, and he saw himself in his vision slowly turn his head as well.

The next moment, with a thought, his vision returned to normal, but his eyes carried a hint of a smile.

This skill seemed to have many uses.

He had already started thinking that he could use this skill to hide in a safe place while sending a squad of skeletons to carry out dangerous missions.

Tian Tian, who was beside him, saw him grinning and asked, "Gu Qinghan, what are you doing? Have you gone silly?"

Gu Qinghan shook his head, left two skeletons to guard him, and had the rest of the skeletons jump downstairs.

He took the two skeletons responsible for protecting him, entered a classroom with a broken door, sat down, and then beckoned to the two. "Come on, let's rest for a while. My skeletons have gone to find food."

Tao Yu looked at the departing skeletons and, after holding it in for a long time, finally managed to spit out, "Really? Does your skeleton know what is edible?"

"Of course, it's fully automatic."

Gu Qinghan smiled and immediately used the Vision of the Dead skill.

His vision suddenly changed; the desks and chairs in front of him turned into terrifying zombies.

However, his perspective seemed to be that of a skeleton equipped with a shield and a weapon, killing the zombies in front of it with an overwhelming force.

With just a thought, this skeleton could change its actions according to his will. This feeling was just like controlling an incredibly agile mecha!

He currently had 7 such mechas, and there would only be more in the future!

Tian Tian, who was in the classroom, originally wanted to chat with Gu Qinghan, but seeing Gu Qinghan's focused expression, she realized he seemed to be busy with something.

Thus, under Gu Qinghan's guidance, this skeleton squad headed towards the nearest small supermarket in his memory.

This supermarket was not large in scale, less than five hundred meters away from this teaching building, and had provided quite a lot of convenience to passing students.

However, just as the skeleton squad was running towards this small supermarket, the Squad Leader skeleton suddenly glanced towards the entrance of this teaching building.

Through the skeleton's vision, Gu Qinghan saw a group of people struggling to clear away the zombies trying to rush inside.

Gu Qinghan had only closed the rift on his third floor; the rifts in other locations still existed, so it could be said that the number of zombies had not decreased at all.

However, just with that one glance, he seemed to see a Male Student with a crew cut looking outside from the window.

This person was none other than Li Qingshan!

Gu Qinghan couldn't help but sneer in his heart. He had guessed right; it was this guy who organized the people downstairs to block the staircase.

However, he didn't want to expose himself directly at this moment. For one thing, he wasn't sure if he could win, and for another, he needed to carefully plan how to take his revenge.

The other party didn't know that Gu Qinghan was on the floor just a wall away from him. If he knew, he would probably definitely break through the earthen wall to finish him off.

Gu Qinghan suddenly had an idea: he would wait until his strength had grown to a certain extent, then return to face Li Qingshan with an overwhelming posture.

"When that time comes, it will be your death day, Li Qingshan."

Gu Qinghan sneered coldly in his heart, and then this skeleton squad continued to move forward slowly amidst the siege of surrounding zombies.

Meanwhile, on the side of the first-floor window, Liang Chao was looking at the few skeletons in the distance and suddenly said to Li Qingshan beside him:

"Qingshan, why do I feel like those few skeletons just looked back at us a moment ago…"
