[Heavy Strike]
A powerful, charged attack that deals 250% of the attacker's attack power as damage to a single enemy.

Note: If the second skill has already been learned, it will override the original second skill.
"Wow!" Jiang Hao took a deep breath.
This skill was the one that left the deepest impression on Jiang Hao from poor Ryan—the strongest single-target attack skill that instantly knocked down 3400 HP from the Skeleton Turtle King!
After carefully reading the description below the skill, Jiang Hao understood that the second skill should be the second gray icon among the four skill icons in the skill bar.
He hasn't even figured out his own second skill yet, but he's already developed it for someone else.
We have no choice but to sell it.
Jiang Hao chuckled self-deprecatingly and looked at the sixth item in his backpack, the icon of which was a letter.
[A handwritten letter from the High Priest Orong]
This is a special item. Upon opening, the player will participate in a special event until its end. Please note that during this period, the player's life will not be protected by the Spirit Ruins, and those who die during the event will not be resurrected. After the event ends, the player will receive generous rewards from the Spirit Ruins. Note: Player level 10 or higher is required to open the envelope.
Didn't they say there was special equipment?
This looks like a task posting.
That's it?
Jiang Hao was somewhat disappointed. He had gone to great lengths to defeat the world boss, and all he wanted was equipment.
"I took my pants off, and this is what you show me?"
A letter that cannot be opened unless you are at least level 10.
A letter from God!
If this special item were available for trade, Jiang Hao would love to auction off the letter immediately.
Anyone who wants to participate can participate.
Feeling dejected, Jiang Hao looked at the bronze treasure chest in his backpack. This was the reward Lingxu had given him for defeating the world boss. Upon opening it, he saw a blindingly bright blue light emanating from the chest. When the light faded, Jiang Hao saw a skull staff lying quietly in the original spot of the chest.
The opening effect of the treasure chest is really impressive. Jiang Hao, filled with excitement, checked the staff's attributes.
Odair's Skull Staff
Quality: Bronze
arms
Health +400
Intelligence 50
Spirit 10
Equipment effect: Every two seconds, it can summon a level 6 skeleton soldier to help in battle, with no limit on the number.
Equipment Requirements: Summoner
Within the skull of the staff lies the powerful will of a summoner.
Oh no!
Jiang Hao repeated his catchphrase several times, his fingers starting to tremble.
This equipment truly lives up to its reputation as bronze-level gear. Its health has increased to a terrifying 400 points, and its main attribute, Intelligence, has reached a staggering 50 points—more than Jiang Hao achieved even after leveling up five times. And the equipment's effects—could they be any more outrageous?
With no limit on the number of skeleton soldiers, whether fighting monsters or engaging in PvP, you can simply overwhelm your opponent with sheer numbers.
He's a proper summoner, a rare class, and even that has a limit on the number of summons he can have. Why can an item have no limit on the number of summons?
Ah, I'm so happy!
Defeating the world boss yielded six pieces of equipment, but only one belt was usable. It's impossible for Jiang Hao not to feel emotional. Now, this staff has instantly erased all of Jiang Hao's discomfort.
Without hesitation, equip it!
Health increased from 960 to 1360, Intelligence increased from 78 to 128, and total Mana reached 1920.
"You know what, the new staff feels really good."
Stroking the new staff with both hands, Jiang Hao felt that the weight of the staff was just right. The gray flames at the top of the staff were burning, enveloping the white skull inside, which looked very cold, but Jiang Hao liked it very much.
He felt that the staff was perfect in every way, and he was extremely satisfied with it.
Having reviewed all the equipment and equipped everything he could, Jiang Hao began listing the unused equipment for auction.
As usual, all equipment would be auctioned off, with a starting price of 10 yuan. However, Jiang Hao was more cautious this time. Last time, he had unintentionally missed the bidding time, revealing the crucial element of bidding in the last second. Therefore, he made some adjustments to the bidding time this time. The first item's bidding time was set at 5 minutes, the second at 10 minutes, the third at 15 minutes, and the skill book [Heavy Strike] was placed last, with a bidding time of 20 minutes.
As long as the timing is right, all the money will end up in my pocket.
Jiang Hao happily closed his portable auction house and opened his skill bar. It was time to upgrade his skills. With the 20 skill points he had just received from the Spirit Ruins, he now had a total of 26 skill points to use for upgrades.
Open your personal panel, click on the skills section, and then click the plus sign below the first skill icon.
"Upgrading this skill requires 8 skill points. Would you like to upgrade?"
Jiang Hao selected "confirm," and a flash of white light appeared on the icon, indicating that the resurrection skill had finally reached level 4.
Resurrection (lv4): Summons 7 summoned creatures to aid the necromancer in battle.
(Upgrading this skill requires 11 skill points. Current skill points: 18)
Jiang Hao had enough skill points left to level up again. He was curious about how many summons he could summon after his resurrection and level-up. The more summons he had, the stronger he would be, so he clicked the plus sign below the icon again.
A moment later, the white light on the icon flashed again, and the resurrection skill was upgraded to level 5.
Resurrection (lv5): Summons 9 summoned creatures to aid the necromancer in battle.
(Upgrading this skill requires 14 skill points; current skill points: 7)
Jiang Hao was satisfied that the maximum number of summoned creatures had increased from 7 to 9. However, were the skill points required for each level up too many?
Normally, you gain one skill point for every level you gain. He's already spent 26 skill points to level up his skill to level 5. The skill level is severely mismatched with his own level. Leveling up will definitely be more difficult later on; won't he have to level up several times before he can upgrade a skill again?
It seems that skill upgrades are a bottomless pit in the Spirit Ruins, impossible to fill; you can only fill as much as you can.
Jiang Hao still didn't know what the career points were for, and he just hoped they weren't another trap.
After processing all the available rewards and equipment, Jiang Hao looked at Ryan's corpse lying on the ground.
With such a powerful boss, Jiang Hao couldn't possibly not revive him as one of his summons.
Jiang Hao tapped his finger, unleashing the Resurrection skill. Just like the last time he resurrected the White-Shelled Turtle King, Jiang Hao's mana was instantly depleted, leaving him with only 200 points. If it weren't for the fact that his bronze-level staff provided enough intelligence to boost his mana to 1920 points, he would probably have faced the embarrassing situation of not having enough mana to cast the skill again.
It took another minute, the same as the last time the White-Shelled Turtle King was resurrected. Jiang Hao thought this time it should have taken longer, probably because the resurrection speed had increased after the skill upgrade. Jiang Hao saw a ghostly blue soul fire ignite inside Ryan's empty skull. He realized he could control him now.
