I'm really a necromancer

Chapter 238 Summoning the Faceless Shadow!

"It seems that it's not just a simple scream, but it contains weak mental damage, which can barely match a second-class soul witchcraft!"

Fortunately, relying on the soul strength of the third-class necromancer apprentice and the physique of the earth knight, Yi Hua recovered from the screaming impact of the shadow of the dead in just two or three seconds.

"It seems that the enhancement of the strange power in the secret world has also given the shadow of the dead a new ability!"

Seeing the group of Illuminati apprentices [-] meters behind him who seemed not to be affected by the screaming sound from the shadow of the dead, Yi Hua said clearly:
"Next, when dealing with the shadow of the dead, we must keep our distance as much as possible."

At the same time, nearly a hundred apprentices [-] meters behind them also reacted.

Due to the long distance, there are hundreds of meters away from the dissipated shadow of the dead.

A group of Illuminati apprentices heard the screams when the shadow of the dead dissipated, but they were not affected by it.

Therefore, everyone focused their attention on the matter of Yihua beheading the shadow of the dead with one sword.

"The speed of that ghost thing is too terrifying! If it were me, I wouldn't be able to react at all. Fortunately, I have the protection of the vice president."

"The pale-faced shadow of the deceased who attacked us just now looks like a talented second-class apprentice who was among the top [-] in this college competition!"

"Could it be that the apprentice who died in the secret world was resurrected by the strange power that the vice president said, and came to claim his life?"

The apprentices of the Illuminati who were present talked about everything that happened before.

At this time, someone also noticed the four male and female apprentices who had followed the "Shadow Thorn" Tucker who had just died, who woke up from the dizziness and got up one after another.

"Why did those apprentices faint? Could it be that the ear-piercing scream that that bastard died just now had the effect of affecting the soul?"

"But why does the vice president seem to be unaffected?"

"Are you an idiot? How can the vice president be compared to those few apprentices!"

Ignoring the discussion of a group of apprentices hundreds of meters away, seeing the four surviving people wake up, Yi Hua went straight forward.

"Brother Tucker..."

The four of them looked at the unrecognizable face on the grass beside them, mixed with broken bones, eyeballs and meat sauce from internal organs, their faces showed an unconcealable sadness.

Seeing Yihua coming forward, the blond-haired young second-class apprentice glanced at the grey-haired girl, the brunette-haired young woman, and another sturdy young man with a square face beside him who were in mourning.

Without thinking too much, he faced Yi Hua decisively, and said in a low tone:

"Sorry, we misunderstood you earlier, thank you for saving us, it's a pity that Brother Tucker..."

Compared with mortals, wizard apprentices are more rational.

The blond young man knew that Yihua had nothing to do with them, even if Yihua didn't save them, there would be no problem.

Therefore, the blond young man did not resent Yihua because Yihua did not save the "Shadow Thorn" Tucker in time, but was grateful to Yihua.

Yi Hua did not respond to the blond youth's thanks on the spot, but glanced back and forth at the four people in front of him through his eyes.

Through the power of the soul, Yi Hua stared briefly, and found that the four people in front of him had light white karmic auras.

This means that the merit value of each of these four second-class apprentices who follow "Shadow Thorn" Tucker is positive.

The amount of merit and whether it is positive or negative is Yihua's criterion for judging whether he can join the Illuminati.

An apprentice with a negative merit value will provide Yihua with far less merit than if Yihua kills the other party.

Knowing that there is a lack of second-class apprentices in the Illuminati, Yi Hua flashed his eyes and said immediately:

"It's nothing, I'll give you a few picks. No, apprentices have two options. One, join us in the Illuminati, and then follow us to act together. I will protect you under the hands of those 'shadows of the dead'."

"Second, hand over most of your points. You can stay here temporarily. After the daytime period of the secret world is over, you can choose to leave on your own."

Since the death of the apprentice would enhance the strength of the strange forces in the secret world, neither of the two options allowed the four of them to leave immediately and face the shadow of the dead.

For the time being, the four second-class apprentices headed by the blond-haired youth suddenly became solemn when they heard the choice given by Yi Hua.

The four of them saw Yi Hua just now, and with almost crushing strength, they wiped out the shadow of the dead that they couldn't compete with at all.

The four apprentices who followed "Shadow Thorn" Tucker and were rescued by Yihua knew the dangerous situation, so they made a decision on the spot without much hesitation.

"We choose the first one!"

"Okay, sign them and follow me."

Seeing that the four agreed, Yihua casually threw out four template contracts from the Illuminati.

"Kindness? What is that?"

"Huh? You can gain merit by 'helping' others, even if the person being helped is not a wizard apprentice, but just a mortal? How can this thing called 'merit' be so easy to obtain?"

"After joining the Illuminati, we can use this kind of 'merit value' that can be easily obtained to directly exchange for second-class scrolls? I heard about this before. At that time, I thought it was a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true. of!"

Compared with other forces in the academy, the contract of the Illuminati is extremely loose.

It can even be said that there are almost no restrictions except that the apprentices in the club cannot hurt each other.

Among them, the regulations about collecting merits and redeeming second-class light therapy scrolls made the four of them even more shocked.

For the part related to the merit value, in order to increase the attractiveness to other apprentices, Yi Hua did not stipulate the "performance" requirements.

After all, the attractiveness of being able to exchange for real second-class light therapy scrolls through the simple and illusory merit points is enough to make apprentices who join the Illuminati work hard day and night to collect merit points.

Adding the limitation that each person must collect a certain amount of merit within the specified time is completely superfluous.

Now that time is running out, Yi Hua didn't take the time to give the four of them a detailed explanation.

Seeing that Yihua didn't explain, he realized that time was running out, and a new shadow of the dead would appear to attack everyone at some point.

The four of them took a quick glance and found that there were no loopholes in the contract. The four of them who had not joined other forces before signed the contract immediately and took the four Illuminati silver cross badges that Yi Hua casually threw out.

Seeing that the four had successfully joined the Illuminati, Yi Hua turned around and glanced at a token embedded in the flesh and blood of the dead "Shadow Thorn" Tucker.

With "Shadow Thorn" Tucker ranked 33rd in the points list, the points contained in the token now contain no less than a thousand points.

Translucent fear tentacles extending from the third-class half-dead witch body in the open state.

Due to the characteristics of the tentacles of fear, only when in contact with other things, will it temporarily show a part of its shape.

The blond-haired young man and others around him did not notice the existence of the tentacles of fear from the brief contact between the tip of the tentacles of fear and the token in the ground meat.

Under the surprised gazes of several apprentices around, Yi Hua took the token thrown to him by the tentacles of fear with his hands.

After simply wiping off the blood, Yi Hua extended his perception to the token left by "Shadow Thorn" Tucker.

After a while, Yi Hua, who came to his senses, flashed a subtle joy.

"Sure enough, there are more than 1000 points in the token of 'Shadow Thorn' Tucker!"

Just when he wanted to transfer the points in the token immediately, Yi Hua frowned and thought of another thing:

"I don't know how many apprentices are left in the secret realm world..."

Thinking of this, Yi Hua decisively called up the real-time scoreboard in the secret world——

[Real-time standings for the apprenticeship exam]

[No.1——Milkor Farbouti——Currently holding points: 10682 points]

[No.2——Rey Fercis——Currently holding points: 8038 points]

[No.3——Enzo Lateran——Currently holds points: 7775 points]

……

[No.5——Iva Fercis——Currently holds points: 5848 points]

……

[Third thousand 880 second place...Currently holds points: 13 points]

Seeing that the number of apprentices had been reduced by less than a thousand compared to before, Yi Hua frowned, and doubts suddenly came to his mind:

"Huh? The number of apprentices displayed on the real-time standings does not seem to have changed much from before...?"

Just when Yihua was a little surprised by the number of apprentices.

He suddenly remembered that the apprentice who died under the strange power of the secret world, unless there were other apprentices around.

Otherwise, the token it carries will remain in place with a high probability.

The points contained in it are still retained in the token and have not been transferred by others.

The real-time scoreboard can only judge the current points in the corresponding apprentice token through the points in the token.

It is impossible to directly spy on the life and death of the apprentice holding the corresponding token.

Just like the "Shadow Thorn" Tucker who just died, because his points have not been transferred by Yihua, he is still ranked 33rd in the real-time standings.

Realizing this, Yi Hua shook his head.

"It seems that the information obtained on the real-time standings is no longer useful for reference."

Next, Yi Hua, without wasting time, quickly transferred the points in the dead "Shadow Thorn" Tucker's token under the complicated gazes of the four apprentices.

Just as Yi Hua was about to step away, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a fleeting jet-black energy from "Shadow Thorn" Tucker's unrecognizable, meat sauce-like corpse.

"Ok?"

Seeing this, Yi Hua's right foot that had just stepped out suddenly stopped in mid-air.

Realizing the weirdness, Yi Hua immediately stepped forward and looked at the body of "Shadow Thorn" Tucker.

After checking for a while, Yi Hua did not find the trace of the jet-black energy that he glimpsed earlier on the shattered body of "Shadow Thorn" Tucker.

"Could it be a mistake?"

Yi Hua got up and stood still, subconsciously said in her heart.

But no matter whether the jet-black energy he saw before was real or just his illusion, Yi Hua still firmly remembered the scene he saw before.

He decided to take a closer look at the corpse when the apprentice died next time.

"Fair...no, Mr. Vice President, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing Yihua turning over the body of Brother Tucker suddenly, with a thoughtful expression, the blond youth who was the leader of the four who had just joined the Illuminati said doubtfully.

"No, nothing, come with me."

Yi Hua shook his head and didn't explain too much to them.

Next, Yihua led the four of them back to the group of Illuminati apprentices hundreds of meters away at the fastest speed.

After transferring the points in the "Shadow Thorn" Tucker token, the points in the Yihua token have exceeded 4 points, ranking No. [-] in the real-time scoreboard, second only to Milko, Rey and Enzo three people.

Before Yihua could issue a new order, an Illuminati apprentice suddenly pointed to a distance of several hundred meters and said in surprise:
"Vice President, over there!"

Hearing the apprentice's exclamation, all the apprentices present looked in the direction pointed by the Illuminati apprentice one after another.

The current location of everyone is located in the middle of a forest in the secret world, covering an open space with a radius of several hundred meters.

I don't know when, another shadow of the deceased who was beheaded by Yihua was very similar, with a pale complexion and blood and tears in his eyes, which appeared hundreds of meters away from the crowd, at the edge of the open space and the forest.

Judging from the fact that it is somewhat different from the shadow of the dead who was killed by Yihua before, but the body is also blurred, covered with scars, and the skin is swollen like a dead body, this is undoubtedly a brand new shadow of the dead.

Before Yihua could respond, the blond young man who had just joined the Illuminati shrank his pupils and said straight away:

"That guy is the bastard who chased us and killed several of our companions!"

Seeing the familiar figure in the distance, the other three companions of the blond-haired youth showed fire of hatred in their eyes, wanting to swallow him alive.

However, before a few people spoke, two more shadows of the dead with the same pale translucent body but with different appearances appeared beside the shadow of the dead that appeared first.

The appearance of the two is a young man with black hair and a girl with long orange hair.

But at this moment, under the influence of the strange power of the secret world, the two of them turned into the shadows of the dead, covered with centipede-like dark red scars, and dead air all over their bodies, not like living people at all.

Just a shadow of the dead earlier forced the blond youth and others to flee.

Now, at the same time, three appeared!

The blond-haired young man was about to speak, but the gray-haired young apprentice's eyes trembled, and he said with fear:
"Wait, the one who appeared next to that guy...is Karl!"

"And Sally!"

At this moment, another shadow of the dead, covered in blood, like a humanoid monster stitched together by countless pieces of flesh, suddenly appeared beside the shadows of the dead.

Beside Yihua, the four people who had just joined the Illuminati, after barely making out the face of the sutured monster with collapsed bones, advanced to show horrified eyes.

"Look at that face, it's Brother Tucker!"

"This!"

"Damn it! It's disgusting and weird! Do you want us to be enemies with our former partners!"

Facing the strange power in the secret world and the behavior of blaspheming their dead classmates, the faces of the four blond youths showed pain and hatred.

However, in today's era where night and day are confused, a large number of apprentices died in the secret world, and turned into food for strange forces, and strange forces can launch attacks unscrupulously.

The strange force's attack on the apprentices in the secret world is obviously far more than that.
