Different World Online

Finding the right direction and digging all the way, Steve dragged the vampire's body all the way to the mass grave south of Waterdeep City;

As the excavation continued, Steve dug out a large number of bones buried deep under the soil.

Steve threw aside a thigh bone that was so rotten that it broke at the touch, pursed his lips, and reached out with another pickaxe.

The next second, a feeling of lack of force came from the tip of the pickaxe. I looked up and saw a pitch-black underground space in front of me.

Seeing this, Steve did not hesitate and immediately blocked the hole in front of him.

The mysterious space beneath the mass grave doesn’t look like a good place at first glance, so it’s better to block it off first and deal with the vampire’s body before exploring.

Thinking of this, Steve casually took out a gorgeous table made of pear blossom sandalwood from the [Void Demiplane], broke it into firewood in a few seconds, and piled it together;

Walking over to the vampire's body, Steve began to strip him of his clothes;

Roughly tearing off the guy's tattered cloak and hood, a corpse with a thick frame, split lip, and frightening paleness appeared before his eyes.

Then, lighting the torch, Steve discovered that this guy had a holy emblem of a white skull surrounded by purple-black light hanging around his neck;

He broke the rope that tied the holy emblem and looked carefully at the holy emblem in his hand.

That’s right, it’s the holy emblem of Xirik, the Lord of Lies, the Black Sun, and the God of Murder;

After finding a dimensional bag and carefully placing the holy emblem inside, Steve turned the vampire over, revealing his pale back;

As expected, this guy's back was covered with densely packed holy scriptures tattooed on it.

Although part of the area near the heart was burned, it was indeed Cyric's holy book.

Without thinking, Steve took out a sharp dagger and peeled off the skin on the vampire's back along the edge of the holy book.

Except for the white tough fascia, not a drop of blood flowed out between the skin, bones and muscles.

It seems that this vampire used all his blood to extinguish the fire in his heart before he died.

It’s a pity that the Stonefire magic bestowed by Soul Forger Moradin is not so easy to extinguish.

After taking off the human skin and putting it and the holy symbol into a dimensional bag, Steve kicked the vampire's body into the firewood and threw a burning stone.

The scorching heat accompanied by thick black smoke rose up and soon filled the entire enclosed mine tunnel.

Listening to the crackling sound of the oil burning until only ashes were left, Steve checked his equipment, dug a hole into the mysterious underground space, and jumped out of the mine with a torch in hand.

By the light of the torch, he took a general look at this mysterious underground space;

This is a square stone room with a tightly closed stone door on the left hand side;

On the right, in front of an oily desk, a body that had long since become nothing but bones sat quietly on a chair;

On the table, the black ink bottle was overturned, and the long-dried black ink was all over the table, staining the messy parchment on the table black;

On the innermost side of the desk, there are crystal jars filled with turbid liquid, and inside the jars, various strange...organs are floating;

Next to the desk, a small makeshift bed with blackened bedding was littered with various sawdust and blackened cotton;

The corners and ceilings were full of traces of rats and spiders’ nests;

The entire stone chamber was filled with a creepy and eerie atmosphere.

Holding the torch with a slightly flickering flame, there was no trace of fear on Steve's face.

Because of understanding, there is no fear;

He didn't even have to turn over the parchment on the table to know where this was;

An underground laboratory of a wizard, a wizard specializing in necromancy;

Only those who like to explore the ultimate mysteries of the body and soul would build their base under a mass grave.

Necromancer, one of the most polluting spells;

In some colleges where necromancy can be legally studied, necromancy branches are often established far away from the main campus.

However, for many wizards who have the ability and intelligence but no money, specializing in necromancy is actually a good choice;

The mediums for necromancy are mostly bones, coffin boards, shrouds, grave soil of the dead, and various things related to the dead.

These items all have one thing in common: they don’t cost any money!

Moreover, a lot of necromancy research requires the dissection of corpses, and corpses are often not valuable.

However, don’t underestimate necromancy because of this;

Putting aside the pollution to the necromancer's own body, necromancy is actually a very powerful type of spell!

For large-scale damage, check out [Corpse].

Meat shields, the [Flesh Golem] made from corpses scattered all over the battlefield is not weak;

If the necromancer wants to, they can even heal the sick and save the dead, and they can do it very well;

After all, a necromancer who is proficient in necromancy is also proficient in pathology and pharmacology;

Despite their very, very bad reputation, most necromancers actually live reclusive lives and are quite friendly;

The truly evil ones are the necromancers who study the soul;

At this point, we have to mention two major research directions of necromancy;

body and soul;

Most necromancers who study the body look ferocious but are kind-hearted;

They are devoted to the ultimate secrets of the flesh of various creatures, flesh, bones, nerves, veins, their research is varied, but they are all the ultimate battlefield slaughter masters and medical experts;

Necromancers targeting the flesh pollute their bodies but not their pure souls;

The Necromancer, who studies the soul, is just the opposite;

Necromancer spells that target the soul pollute it. Although these necromancers look like most pale humanoid creatures, their souls are either riddled with holes or simply inhuman patchwork monsters.

Those necromancers who had the most profound research on the soul eventually became liches;

Although the necromancers who focus on studying the body cannot obtain eternal life like the liches, they are all the most outstanding pioneers without exception;

Steve remembered that Old Pete said that the first scholar who discovered that the inner cavity of the demon and the inner cavity of the original Zerg were almost identical was a hermit-like legendary necromancer.

Unfortunately, most mortals judge their souls by their appearance and confuse the two completely different types of necromancers.

With a simple sigh, Steve raised the torch and approached the desk;

Carefully pulling out the fragile parchment that was not stained by ink from the desk, Steve glanced over it;

Sure enough, the person in the chair next to him was the remains of a necromancer;

In his last scrawl, he regretted that his research was not focused on the soul, and that he could not transform himself into an immortal lich;

But the emotion revealed between the lines is more like a kind of pride, a pride that sticks to the human soul;
