Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge

As for not having enough efficiency, one could make up for it with numbers, but that would require the mining tunnels to be big enough.

Given such a small area, not only did several hundred dogs have to go in to work, but when you crammed more than two thousand skeletons in there, there was hardly any room left for pits. Enjoy exclusive content from empire

Accompanied by the birth of a hundred elite skeleton bosses, he compared their attributes with the skeletons he had summoned during the Blue Star era.

It must be said that within the Sea of Realms, the changes were indeed significant; the skeletons’ attributes were noticeably stronger than those on Blue Star.

On Blue Star, he himself could only summon elite skeletons, and although there were mutated, enhanced versions, they were just so-so and still doomed to be cannon fodder.

Besides, he never thought about concentrating on cultivating skeletons; after all, given their base qualities, the difficulty of raising a skeleton lord was far greater than raising a spectre or vampire of equivalent combat ability.

Among the eight undead species in the Castle of the Undead, including the Skeleton Tribe, even all-boss members were fated to be cannon fodder.

It couldn’t be helped, with bosses of the same Fourth Order Level 100, ten skeletons couldn’t beat one vampire – such was the disparity in racial essence.

Otherwise, practitioners of death-related professions wouldn’t be so keen on obtaining more bone dragons and dark knights for cultivation.

By four in the afternoon, the sun had begun to wane.

Sitting in a sedan chair carried by four elite skeleton bosses, Zi Liyuan led a team of a hundred skeleton bosses to the riverside in the north.

In view, the landscape was open, and one could see a squad of seven wild boars drinking by the river.

Downstream, a hundred meters away, about twenty deer were frolicking in the shallow water.

As for the other scattered wild animals, there were quite a few, with substantial signals of life force on both sides of the river, according to the map.

And in the river itself, there were plenty of large crocodiles; basically, there were four to five large crocodiles every hundred meters, and there were also a lot of river fishes, shrimps, crabs, and so on.

A river rich in food resources could yield a great amount of food.

Of course, to harvest enough fish, one would first have to deal with the large crocodiles in the river.

Early in the morning, he had traded food with the dogs, and the territory was almost stripped of its supplies.

After all, he was the only living person in the territory, and with his current physical condition, he wouldn’t have a problem not eating for ten days to half a month.

However, subsequent trades with the dogs could still primarily involve food, with life necessities and mining tools as a supplement. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Although the dogs were only so numerous, their food consumption was not small; 30,000 units of food, if let loose, wouldn’t last five days.

Who made these dogs dig and dig in the mining tunnels every day? It was super hard physical work.

"Next," he said, "we’ll drain all the goods from the dogs and also need to venture into the Stone Mountain Range to look for other mines."

The upgrade to a Level 6 Lord’s Mansion required ordinary quality silver mines, and a Level 7 Lord’s Mansion would definitely demand fine silver mines, followed by gold mines.

He had already asked the dogs about silver mines, and they didn’t have any, so he needed to find a way to procure them himself.

Zi Liyuan had already scouted the surrounding one hundred kilometers and had not found any silver mines. Instead, he had discovered iron, copper, and gold mines, all concentrated in the Stone Mountain Range.

He had also found many resource points, such as crystals, jewels, sulfur, mercury, and more. However, the greatest discovery wasn’t the resources but a dungeon!

Downstream, about four thousand meters into a deep-water area of the river, the riverbed was spatially chaotic, with a pale green vortex more than ten meters in size.

This vortex didn’t swallow the surrounding water; its surface had a membrane-like layer, as if there was some unknown space inside.

Having raided numerous wild dungeons on Blue Star, Zi Liyuan could tell at a glance through the map that this was a dungeon space.

"With the current strength," he thought, "raiding the dungeon is a bit troublesome. Better to wait until upgrading to a Level 10 Lord’s Mansion and lifting the seal before steamrolling the dungeons – that’s the real deal."

His gaze returned to the large crocodiles in the river. Elemental Arrows suddenly converged and shot out.

The massive blended elemental force nearly instantly pierced through the head of a crocodile, damaging its brain in the process.

An instant kill, which then immediately triggered rioting among the crocodile’s brethren in the river.

"Roar~!"

A roar echoed from the river, as crocodile after crocodile rampaged, carrying a surge of water and rushing out of the riverbed, heading straight for Zi Liyuan.

Large crocodiles of the second and third order, even if not boss templates, could still suppress elite skeletons of the first order Level 40 in one-on-one battles.

But as four or five crocodiles rushed ashore, what awaited them was not a few portions of a rib feast but rather a group of thugs, wielding machetes and lacking any sense of chivalry, ready to trap them.

A hundred bosses ganging up on a few ordinary monsters – just ask if that isn’t bullying.

The large crocodiles that were chopped to pieces had something to say.

Crocodile skin was good stuff, crocodile meat could be traded with the dogs, and crocodile teeth could be used to make arrowheads...

Poor crocodile babies, who were just peacefully sleeping in their river, suddenly had a disaster come their way, besieged and mercilessly hacked to death without a hint of sportsmanship.

Such a sin!

The hunt went on wherever they went, clearing over three thousand meters of the river, all the way to the deep-water area of the dungeon, before Lord Zi stopped the hunting frenzy.

This time they had harvested a total of 238 crocodile corpses. Bringing them back and processing them would yield at least ten thousand units of food resources.
