Chapter 25 Death... The Undead Emperor?



"Detecting, please wait..."

The mirror surface was plunged into complete darkness.

Yaberlik couldn't help but interject, "Master, what kind of career do you think you can get?"

"Hmph, the Holy Lord will naturally obtain a top-tier profession in the Holy Light system. I guess it will be something like Lord of Radiance or Inheritor of Holy Light. Although it's a bit unworthy, it'll have to do for now. Once Heaven is restored to its former glory, the four Your Majesties can work together to help the Holy Lord regain the power of the Holy Lord of Light," Annalia said proudly.

“That’s right. Moreover, Lord, you are humble, righteous, brave, and wise—qualities that are highly favored by the Holy Light.” Several greatswordsmen also joined in the fun with smiles.

Jiang Yan recalled what Ifina had said before, "The Holy Light has chosen you," and couldn't help but smile subtly: "That should be the case."

"Detection complete. Factor collection will begin shortly to complete the matching..."

At this moment, various images began to appear on the mirror:

In the first scene, Jiang Yan is seen holding a dagger and skillfully gutting a pitiful spider that is unable to move.

"I am more interested in the structure of those unknown and powerful creatures."

In the second act, Jiang Yan stands on the giant bear, gnawing on a crispy, juicy bear paw with one hand and holding the Angelic Sword in the other. Under the bear's terrified gaze, he cuts off a piece of tender meat.

"Actually, this piece of meat is not bad either. It looks very tender. Let's take it with us for now. We can have it in hot pot when we return to the Federation."

In the third scene, a seemingly kind old woman has a terrified expression, while opposite her, Jiang Yan has a gloomy face.

A cold voice rang out: "Kill her!"

"no!"

Jiang Yan couldn't hold back any longer: "The spirits of the Tower of Inheritance can also maliciously edit things!"

"Pure slander!"

But the spirit ignored his protest.

The scene continued, eventually settling on the Abyssal Terror Beast, which had been hacked to pieces.

"Assessment complete. You are ruthless, heartless, and indifferent to life, even when facing the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled."

Therefore, the extracted traits are: cruelty, ruthlessness, twistedness, and composure...

"Matching suitable professions..."

"Match complete. Congratulations to the challenger for obtaining the unique Tier 1 job advancement 'Undead Emperor'."

Without any time to react, a jet-black beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping Jiang Yan completely.

The aura of the laws of death gradually filled the space.

"This..." The ten great swordsmen were so shocked that they were speechless.

Jacobi had an expression that said, "I knew it," and his fear deepened.

Analia stood to the side, her brows furrowed, saying nothing, lost in thought.

One hour...

Ten hours...

Two full days later, the black beam of light gradually faded, and Jiang Yan slowly opened his eyes.

The clansmen guarding the area stepped forward one after another.

“Master…” Yaberic was about to speak when he met Jiang Yan’s eyes and was immediately struck by an endless chill and majesty, as if he were surrounded by mountains of corpses and seas of bones.

It involuntarily took two steps back.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Yan gradually regained consciousness, and seeing this, he touched his face and asked curiously.

"Uh, it's nothing. Congratulations, Master, on obtaining a powerful inheritance." Yaberic blinked hard and found that the scene had disappeared.

"Holy Lord".

Jiang Yan turned his head and found Annalia staring at him intently, which made him feel a little guilty.

These angels all called him the Holy Lord of Light, but he changed his title to "Emperor of the Dead".

He had never heard of such a scene in either of his two lifetimes, and he had no idea how to explain it. You must know that issues involving faith are extremely serious and unsolvable!

"Ahem, listen to me, Anna," Jiang Yan said, forcing himself to speak.

“Holy Lord, I understand.”

"Actually, my heart is still with... uh? You understand?" Jiang Yan was stunned.

What do you understand?

But then Annalia's eyes suddenly filled with reverence.

“I have heard of a powerful figure in ancient mythology who made a great vow: ‘I will not become a Buddha until hell is empty.’ I always thought it was just a legend. But today, Your Majesty’s actions are no less impressive than his.”

"The Necromancer is the most evil and ruthless profession. It spreads death and does not even spare the bones of the living. Anyone else who obtains this power will be a disaster for the entire world."

"It must be very difficult for you, accepting such evil power must be very painful for someone with a bright heart like you."

this...

Seeing Analia's utterly sincere expression, Jiang Yan paused for a second, then nodded in agreement:

“That’s right. As the Holy Lord of Light, this evil power can never corrupt my heart. I will master it, conquer it, and purify it completely with holy light. But this path is destined to be difficult and arduous. Will you help me, Anna?”

“I do,” Analia said with emotion and determination. “Where your will points, my sword will follow. We will forever follow in your footsteps, Holy Lord.”

Jiang Yan turned his back and let out a long sigh.

He suddenly remembered Anna's Faith section on her panel.

Faith Level: Blind (Everything you say is true).

I didn't realize those two words carried so much weight.

After calming down the understanding angel, Jiang Yan was finally able to try out his newly acquired power. At this moment, his panel had completely changed. In addition to the original Lord interface, a separate class interface had also appeared.

[The Undead Emperor]

Level: Unique.

Exclusive Skill 1: Necromancer Domination.

The highest priority is to manipulate all dead creatures within a certain range, generating or transforming them into undead creatures.

Exclusive Skill 2: Imperial Arrival.

Any being summoned by necromancy is subject to the control of the Undead Emperor to some extent.

Exclusive Skill 3: Necropolis.

It can consume a certain amount of Death Essence to permanently summon a Heroic Spirit from the Necropolis of the Underworld to serve you (first summon is free).

Exclusive Skill 4: Death Harvest.

Each kill grants a certain amount of Death Essence.

Innate talent: Infinity.

As the Lord of the Dead, there is no limit to the number of summons you can generate.

Amazing! Jiang Yan was dumbfounded.

As far as he knew, necromancers typically only had one skill at the start of their class advancement, something like summoning skeletons. To obtain higher-level skills, they needed to advance their class.

Moreover, he had seen god-level necromancers, who, even at their full power, could only summon ten thousand skeleton warriors. It wasn't a lack of magical power, but rather a limitation imposed by the laws of magic.

However, the Undead Emperor not only starts with 4 skills, but also has the talent of infinite summoning.

The only weakness of a lord is that he is limited by resources and cannot recruit troops indefinitely. Furthermore, once his elite troops die, all the time he has spent training them will be wasted.

But the undead are different. As long as there are enough corpses, they can be summoned infinitely and become stronger the more they are fought.

If you're lucky enough to find the remains of a god, you can directly possess god-level combat power.

A thought suddenly flashed through Jiang Yan's mind.

I'm invincible!
