Chapter Fifty-Five: Job Change! Skeleton Priest!

Shen Yi waved his hand, "Second Master."

The skeleton priest stepped forward.

After a period of recovery, the Skeleton Priest can cast spells again.

Shen Yi's mana has recovered somewhat, allowing him to use Undead Summoning three times or Corpse Manipulation once.

"The Skeleton Priest possesses the ability to restore mana."

Shen Yi said this.

Then, Wu Yong witnessed firsthand the skeleton priest and the skeleton warrior begin to merge.

"Now that we've merged... what can we do?"

Wu Yong counted on his fingers, "The skeleton devouring the monster's corpse is actually similar to how we gain experience points by killing monsters."

"But skeletons are different from us. They don't start with a class. Instead, they need to devour a certain number and quality of monster corpses to successfully change classes."

You need to reach level 7 to change jobs... Shen Yi didn't tell Wu Yong the details.

Even after all this time, and although Wu Yong has gained Shen Yi's trust, Shen Yi will not reveal everything about [Unity Power] or other details of his professional skills.

"If we look at it this way, the fusion and evolution of two skeletons is similar to a professional with two bodies, each gaining different levels of experience points, and then merging together, where the experience points are also added together."

"The skeleton priest has a skill to restore mana... not surprising, I remember now, it's called [Energy Restoration]."

In Wu Yong's view, even if Shen Yi created a few more fused skeletons, what could they possibly do?

It's just creating a slightly stronger professional skeleton, maybe a bit more powerful, but it won't change the status quo.

Shen Yi then spoke up: "Skeletons with mana will have their mana reset after fusion and job change."

"Reset? That's convenient, but... after resetting, what else can be done..."

Wu Yong suddenly thought of something, his muttering stopped abruptly, and he looked up at Shen Yi with an incredulous gaze!

"Brother Yi, the bet you mentioned earlier, could it be... could it be what I'm thinking?!"

"You're betting that after the fusion class change, the Skeleton Priest's mana regeneration skill will still be there? Wardfa... you're thinking way too far..."

It would be an understatement to describe Wu Yong's feelings as a mixture of emotions.

The skeleton priests' mana regeneration was indispensable in enabling Shen Yi to assemble such a large skeleton army in such a short time.

But now, he actually wants to play one of his trump cards and gamble on a very slim possibility!

"Brother Yi...you really are..."

After holding it in for a long time, Wu Yong finally managed to squeeze out two words through gritted teeth.

"gambler!"

"A gambler is someone who loses at gambling."

Shen Yi smiled broadly, "If you win the bet, you're not a gambler, you're a winner."

Wu Yong gasped, "Brother Yi, how can you be so sure that the fused class... also has mana regeneration skills?"

Shen Yi shook his head.

He certainly couldn't be sure.

Wu Yong's chubby face broke into a smile that looked more like a grimace. "Boss, how about we call it quits? As long as we're alive, we can always make a comeback!"

If they do nothing and just linger in the instance.

They can rely on Chen Yi's own mana recovery and the Skeleton Priest's mana recovery to quickly raise their mana to a level that can fight against the beast tide.

But if you do this and the bet fails...

Then, Shen Yi's mana regeneration speed will be slowed down again!

Shen Yi shook his head. "There's nothing we can do; the fusion has already begun."

Wu Yong's face was ashen, and his heart was as still as death.

He turned his gaze back to the skeleton priest and even began to pray.

I hope... it really will succeed!

The fusion process would take at least two minutes, and since he had nothing else to do, Chen Yi decided to admire the scenery of the Giant Tree Forest.

Due to the influence of the fog and miasma, most organisms do not linger in their habitats.

Only silence remained.

The enormous trees soared into the sky, and only a small amount of sunlight could penetrate the dense foliage to illuminate the slightly reddish, damp soil.

Beneath the giant tree, a faintly glowing insect fluttered its wings.

"Oh, there are still monsters that haven't been affected by the miasma?" Shen Yi was somewhat surprised.

If it were affected by the miasma, it probably wouldn't be here; instead, it would be joining the beast tide to hunt down the professionals in the dungeon.

"Boss, aren't you worried about what they might merge into? You still have the mind to look at these things."

Wu Yong had mixed feelings. "That thing... oh, it's a glowing insect. It's very weak, but it doesn't have much meat and doesn't taste very good, so it doesn't have many natural enemies."

It's called a glowing insect, but it's only because its attribute is holy that it can emit light from its body.

etc……

Holy attribute?

"Holy attribute, unaffected by miasma!"

Thinking of this, Wu Yong and Shen Yi's eyes lit up almost simultaneously!

"That paladin..."

"Miss Ye!"

The two of them said Ye Qianyu in unison.

"I see, I understand now!"

Wu Yong slapped his thigh, "Because they want to ensure that there are no Holy attribute professionals after the dungeon mechanism is activated, so they postponed the activation of this mechanism!"

"The reason is likely that professionals with holy attributes might be able to influence the course of the battle!"

How to influence the course of the battle?

The answer is obvious.

"Holy attribute professionals will be a huge help in killing the Mist Corpse Demon!"

Thinking of this, Wu Yong scratched his head.

"But with such a huge instance, where are we supposed to find Miss Ye?"

"It's more accurate to say, is she still alive?"

"Too……"

Wu Yong went silent.

The hope that had just risen was extinguished in an instant.

It's highly likely that Ye Qianyu has already been dealt with before they activated the instance mechanism.

Just then, a skeleton stood still, perfectly obedient.

Shen Yi walked over.

"If they delayed the dungeon trigger mechanism in order to eliminate holy attribute professionals, then it means that our so-called methods for dealing with the miasma no longer exist?"

“It’s very possible… but Ye Qianyu herself is a rare professional with great strength. With Chief Ye watching over things outside, this is already their limit. It’s impossible for them to let a high-level professional infiltrate; that would be too incredible.”

"What methods did they use to get rid of Miss Ye?"

Wu Yong's expression was rather grim. "Someone from the Heavenly God Alliance has infiltrated the Jiangdong All-School Alliance... This is not good news."

He paced back and forth, gritting his teeth as he said, "A bunch of lunatics! What good does hunting human professionals do them?"

He was cursing under his breath when he looked up and saw Shen Yi standing not far away.

Only then did Wu Yong remember the important matter at hand.

"Brother Yi!"

Wu Yong rushed over.

"Was the priest's class change... successful!?"
