I, the Necromancer, will crush the gods!

Chapter 401 Jiang Chen's New Challenge: Acting as a Healer

A thick fog enveloped the suspension bridge.

Jiang Chen has just defeated another puppet; one out of every three puppets is an archer.

This time, it took him a little longer, about three minutes.

The third puppet added 1500 attribute points, bringing Jiang Chen's total attribute points to 13000.

After defeating the puppet, a beam of light descended upon Jiang Chen once more, and the warm currents became even stronger, as if he were enveloped in a ball of white light.

From a distance, Jiang Chen looked like a ball of light crossing the suspension bridge. His figure appeared even more mysterious in the mist.

"The platform pairs you up. First, you learn the skill, then you complete the challenge. If you win, you pass." A voice echoed in the air, explaining the rules again.

"The skills are getting harder to learn, the puppets' attributes are getting stronger, and the challenge is constantly increasing." Another voice echoed, conveying the severity of the test.

"It's not just a test of comprehension, but also a test of practical combat skills," the third voice said, emphasizing the essence of the trial.

Jiang Chen realized that the forest orchard should actually be considered the first stage, and learning skills and taking on challenges should be the second stage; this was the normal order.

For so many years, people have been mistaken.

He guessed it was related to memory confusion after leaving.

Since everyone forgot what happened in this stage, they considered it to be the third stage. Ultimately, this version has been passed down for thousands of years.

Jiang Chen was filled with gratitude towards Hong Jishi, Ao Hongchen, and Li Xueru.

If they hadn't made themselves into puppets for trials, they wouldn't have been able to master each profession so thoroughly.

Passing the test on your own is definitely not that easy.

"I wonder what kind of skills the next platform will require."

Swordsmen, mages, and archers all appeared.

Next, the remaining classes should be knights, assassins, summoners, and boxers.

Upon reaching the seventh platform, we saw a stone tablet.

Is there only one?

A stone tablet represents a skill.

It seemed incredibly simple, but the more simple it seemed, the more Jiang Chen felt something was amiss.

Jiang Chen walked over and took a look, a look of astonishment in his eyes. "Skill: Healing Glimmer"

"Healing Glimmer: A basic healing skill that can heal the target and restore their health."

It turns out to be a healing skill.

Jiang Chen couldn't help but imagine the challenges that lay ahead.

He and a puppet that could only heal were staring at each other, seeing who could heal the other to death first...

The scene is kind of funny to think about.

Anyway, let's learn it first.

Jiang Chen began learning skills.

He had never used any healing skills, and even when he was a puppet in the Dragon Tower, he was always a combat-oriented character.

But this still didn't stump him; Jiang Chen imagined himself as a therapist.

On the battlefield and in dungeons, the healer's duty is to heal teammates.

It heals injuries, restores vitality, removes control effects, removes curses, and removes abnormal statuses.

This is the therapist's job.

Half an hour later, a faint light appeared in Jiang Chen's hand.

Healing the glimmer of light, skills are mastered smoothly.

Jiang Chen felt a sense of novelty as he mastered the skills of a therapist for the first time.

The therapeutic light was emitted, but because there was no target, the light quickly dissipated into the air.

This skill is only effective if the target is locked on.

After learning the skill, we waited for another half hour. The stone tablet disappeared, and a new suspension bridge appeared.

On another platform, Jiang Ruo had just mastered the Healing Glimmer skill when the stone tablet disappeared.

Jiang Ruo smiled and said, "Xiao Chen is really fast."

She knows the most about the ancestral land, even far more than a god-level figure like Yi Qianfan.

They were very clear about some of the rules in their ancestral land.

The stone tablet disappeared just half an hour after she entered the platform.

This means that Jiang Chen was about half an hour ahead of her.

She knew that only Jiang Chen could do this; no one else could.

Yi Ning and Lin Cai'er both frowned at this moment.

They had just stepped onto the platform and hadn't even had a chance to glance at the stone tablet before it vanished.

Lin Cai'er stamped her foot, "What are we going to do about the next level?"

...

Jiang Chen was unaware of all this; Jiang Ruo deliberately didn't tell Jiang Chen about this rule.

She knew that, given Jiang Chen's personality, once he knew the rule, he would definitely slow down and wait for them.

So she deliberately kept quiet, allowing Jiang Chen to focus all his energy on moving forward.

We stepped onto the eighth platform.

Jiang Chen saw the puppet again.

This test has changed; it's no longer a battle.

A puppet stands in the center, being attacked by five other puppets.

Jiang Chen could tell at a glance that it was about to die.

In that instant, Jiang Chen understood the requirements of this test.

We can't let it die...

He immediately locked onto the opponent and unleashed a healing glow.

A faint light immediately shone from its body, as if it had recovered somewhat.

Treating faint light is only a basic skill, and the treatment effect is generally average.

It could even be described as very poor. Jiang Chen could only use it continuously, treating the patient without stopping.

Even so, there is often a feeling that it is difficult to continue.

The puppet that he needed to protect and heal was far too weak in combat.

It's impossible to defeat an opponent when you're outnumbered five to one.

Jiang Chen gradually realized a problem: the difficulty of this level was not skills, but mental strength.

The treatment process will continuously consume mental energy, and even the most abundant mental energy will eventually be exhausted.

The problem is clear: to pass this level, you must join the battle and help the puppet.

The various weapons scattered on the ground also illustrate this point.

But now I have no combat skills at all, and I've completely forgotten all the skills I had before.

You can only use some combat techniques, and you have to heal the puppet while fighting.

Playing both a primary combat role and a support role simultaneously is extremely difficult.

As Jiang Chen cast the healing spell, he approached the puppet and picked up a longsword from the ground.

To him, all weapons were pretty much the same; he just picked them up casually.

With a soft shout, he joined the battle, thrusting his longsword forward to help the puppet take over one of its opponents.

Ding!

As the two swords clashed, Jiang Chen discovered that his opponent's strength attribute was very strong, around 5.

This attribute is already enough to surpass other professionals, but for him, it is far from enough.

His current strength has reached 13000, far exceeding his opponent's. Jiang Chen heals the puppet while fighting his opponent.

For Jiang Chen, multitasking was just a routine operation and not difficult at all.

Although Jiang Chen has no special skills, his combat techniques are almost perfect.

In addition, he was not afraid of the opponent's attacks at all.

Damage transfer will transfer all damage to the skeleton.

This allowed Jiang Chen to attack with even greater impunity.

Jiang Chen is only attacking and not defending; that's exactly what he's doing now.

Every sword strike looked like a reckless, death-defying move.

Only Jiang Chen himself knew that this was the most reasonable and fastest way to play.

Make good use of every advantage you have to eliminate the enemy as quickly as possible.

Overwhelming power! Overwhelming skill!

Ignore the attack!

With these three advantages, Jiang Chen cornered his opponent almost instantly.

The opponent used a skill, but Jiang Chen ignored it.

The longsword flashed with a sharp light, slicing it into pieces.

Its body exploded with a bang, turning into countless starlight that merged into Jiang Chen's body.

The attributes haven't changed because the assessment isn't over yet.

Jiang Chen continued to cast the Healing Glow, sending away another opponent.

The puppet's fighting style is very simple, and Jiang Chen has already mastered it.

This time it was even faster; he took down his opponent in no time. Then came the third…

In the blink of an eye, the puppet that Jiang Chen was protecting had no opponents left.

A gust of wind blew by, and the platform became empty.

Only the longsword in his hand remained.

The attributes have been increased again.

All attributes increased by 3000.

Another beam of light entered Jiang Chen's body from the distance.

This is the third ray of light since the challenge began.

The warm current within my body intensified once more.

...

Outside the ancestral land, a faint light flickered.

Lin Cai'er and Yi Ning were teleported out almost one after the other.

The two looked completely bewildered, unable to recall anything about the assessment on the platform. Their only memory was of stepping onto the platform; they vaguely remembered being tasked with learning and understanding something, but nothing else.

Lin Zhenzi and Yi Qianfan breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the two were alright.

Lin Zhenzi asked, "Cai'er, check if there are any changes in the attributes."

Lin Cai'er checked her attributes and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"My attributes have increased."

"The increase in attributes is natural," Lin Zhenzi asked. "How much did it increase?"

Lin Cai'er said, "Strength, agility, and spirit have all increased by 3000, and physique has increased by 7000. There is also an additional trait: vitality increased by 20%."

Hearing this number, Lin Zhenzi breathed a sigh of relief.

Based on past experience, this number is normal. Yi Ning's increase was the same as Lin Cai'er's.

There were a total of 30 people; one died and 26 survived.

Logically speaking, there should only be three people left in the ancestral land now.

They are Jiang Chen, Jiang Ruo, and Sha Jin from the Sha family.

The elders of the Sha family were beaming with joy.
