155: You can control it even after you die!
Chapter 155: Can Be Controlled Even After Death!
[Skill: Undead Rebirth]
[Cooldown: 60 minutes]
[Cost: 100 Mana]
[Effect: Resurrects all non-professional, non-BOSS units within a thirty-meter radius that have been dead for no more than 5 minutes, lasting for 1 minute!]
Lu Ran, of course, had known about this skill for a long time.
Moreover.
This skill was also very famous; it was a hallmark skill for an Undead Mage entering a new stage.
Undead Rebirth!
And it was an area-of-effect skill.
It greatly increased the Undead Mage's combat power!
Especially when running dungeons.
Before entering a BOSS battle, team members would gather the corpses of monsters that had died no more than five minutes ago.
They would be concentrated within a thirty-meter radius.
Then, the Undead Mage would perform Undead Rebirth.
This allowed the Undead Mage to instantly control a large number of dungeon monsters to assist in combat!
Although it only lasted for one minute, after controlling them, immediately entering the BOSS battle often allowed them to maximally tie down and attract the BOSS's aggro for one minute.
Not only could it deal a large amount of damage, but it also bought the team one precious minute of full output!
It was precisely because of this skill that any Undead Mage who reached Level 45 was very popular in dungeons.
The only pity was that.
The skill only lasted for one minute, but its cooldown was as long as sixty minutes!
But even so, the burst in that one minute, and the time it bought for the team, were of immense importance!
Unfortunately, Lu Ran didn't take this skill seriously.
Although Lu Ran's skill coverage could extend for hundreds or even thousands of kilometers, a one-minute duration was simply too useless.
It wasn't even as satisfying and direct as Lu Ran's Bone Storm's infinite stacking.
As for the sixty-minute cooldown being directly eliminated for Lu Ran, it didn't really help either.
After a large-scale Undead Rebirth, even if a second cast was immediately made with no cooldown, there would be no monster corpses left for Lu Ran to control.
It could be said to be a very useless skill.
“I just wonder if the new unlocked entry this time will come with the skill,” Lu Ran muttered.
Then.
His gaze turned to the entry panel.
Upon seeing it, Lu Ran's eyes instantly lit up!
It was as if whatever he thought of appeared!
[Entry: Resurrection]
[Effect: Removes the non-BOSS restriction from Undead Rebirth, removes the one-minute duration restriction. After resurrection, they exist permanently and are controlled permanently!]
What a good thing!
Unexpectedly, this new entry really appeared in conjunction with the new skill!
This perfectly compensated for the shortcomings of a skill that was somewhat useless to Lu Ran!
Although he still couldn't control deceased professionals, it removed the restriction on BOSSes, meaning Lu Ran could now resurrect BOSSes!
Any BOSS that was killed, Lu Ran could revive and store them in his Sleeve Universe, ready to be used at any time!
Although Lu Ran's Bone Throne also had a similar effect, Bone Throne could only control dark-type monsters!
But now, the Resurrection entry, combined with Undead Rebirth.
To put it simply, in this world, as long as it wasn't a human, if Lu Ran killed it, he could control it permanently!
Although it required killing them once, which was a bit more cumbersome than the Bone Throne's control steps, it didn't matter; Lu Ran didn't care about such trivialities!
Coming back to his senses.
He saw the Dwarf King and his group still maintaining their respectful postures.
Liu Xinxin also came up to Lu Ran and nudged him with her elbow, reminding him, “Don’t just stand there, be polite!”
They had shown such a noble etiquette, and he remained silent; that was too impolite!
The Dwarf King was a bit awkward.
He thought, did this kid not understand our Dwarf etiquette?
Why isn't he speaking?
Should I continue to maintain this posture?
Just as he was thinking, Lu Ran finally spoke, “No need for such formality. From now on, we are friends. This is all something I should do.”
It was just polite talk; it always came down to a few phrases, and Lu Ran understood that.
The Dwarf King finally breathed a sigh of relief and returned to his normal posture.
After that, Lu Ran and his group were ready to leave.
The Dwarf King did not try to keep them.
Because the Dwarf were now busy, clearing the Evil Spirit Griffin corpses throughout the city and collecting materials.
They also had to forge equipment in large quantities.
At the same time, they needed to prepare for the Dwarf's migration back to the underground caves.
Naturally, they couldn't pay attention to Lu Ran and his group.
After Lu Ran and his group left Blackstone City.
He opened the map and took a look.
“So, should we return the way we came?” Lu Ran asked.
“You can grind monsters here if you want, but although the monsters here are high-level, they are too scattered. It’s far less efficient than going back to grind dungeons,” Liu Xinxin said.
After speaking.
As if remembering something, Liu Xinxin added, “The Sand Sea area is suitable for large-scale skill use to grind monsters, as it’s a Forbidden Area and there are no human professionals. However, there might be other neutral races like the Dwarf. If you cast your skills, they will probably die along with the wild monsters. Wild monsters can respawn, but those races could truly face extinction.”
Perhaps it was after interacting with the Elves and the Dwarf.
That Liu Xinxin had such concerns.
After all.
Neutral races and humans were simply too similar.
And they weren't monsters, so there was no experience. Killing them in large numbers would even be like a butcher indiscriminately slaughtering!
“Understood. These neutral races should not be touched,” Lu Ran said thoughtfully.
“Moreover, I now understand that if you have the ability, you can build good relationships with those neutral races. The rewards they can provide you are much better than the little experience gained from grinding monsters. Besides, although you still need to level up, it’s not that urgent anymore, since you are already invincible,” Ye Hongyi also said from the side.
After speaking.
Lei Tai eagerly cut to the chase.
He urged, “I’ve been holding it in for too long, hurry, hurry, Lu Ran, tell us about your new skill and new entry!”
Upon hearing this.
Ye Hongyi and Liu Xinxin's eyes also lit up as they looked at Lu Ran.
Although they were both excited.
Liu Xinxin managed to remain calm and teased, “Lei Tai, don’t tell me you’ve forgotten the Undead Mage’s skills again?”
Lei Tai was stunned.
He then quickly said, “How could I? The Undead Mage’s Level 45 skill, hmm… let me think, right, right, right! It’s Undead Rebirth, isn’t it?”
Ye Hongyi immediately nodded and said, “Exactly, it’s Undead Rebirth, one of the Undead Mage’s signature skills. Unfortunately, it’s not very useful for my brother, since it can only resurrect small monsters and only lasts for one minute. Although the sixty-minute cooldown is gone for my brother, the skill itself is a bit useless, far less direct than Bone Throne, and Bone Throne offers permanent control.”
As soon as she said this.
Even Liu Xinxin nodded in agreement.
That was indeed the case.
But Lu Ran smiled mysteriously.
He said, “That’s not necessarily true. The newly unlocked entry this time corresponds to the new skill and perfectly solves the problem. You’ll see for yourselves.”
After speaking, he pulled out the entry panel.
