Chapter 546: The Necromancer Race
"Well... although it's said to be an evolution, it's not evolving like the evolvers do."
...
Shang Chuan directly poured a basin of cold water, extinguishing Chu Yuan's enthusiasm.
"A degenerate species?"
Chu Yuan asked in a cautious and slightly tentative tone.
"It can't really be considered a degenerate species either."
Shang Chuan shook his head.
"Then what is it?"
Beside them, David frowned and looked at Shang Chuan inquiringly.
Especially what it had to do with Lan Qingyou and the Witch Race.
None of the people present were fools. Since Shang Chuan brought it up in front of Lan Qingyou and even involved the victims of the last war, it was definitely aimed at the Witch Race.
"Simply put, these guys aren't as formidable as evolvers, but they aren't as extreme as degenerate species either. They are an existence in an intermediate state."
"There's actually such a thing?"
Hearing this, everyone frowned one by one.
Lower than evolvers, higher than degenerate species, in an intermediate state.
In other words, their stats had improved, but their physical functions, IQ, or other things hadn't regressed.
This...
"Isn't this the most ideal state?"
Chu Yuan excitedly slammed the table, then blurted out a vulgar phrase that didn't seem like something he would say.
"No, no, no, it's not exactly ideal either."
Shang Chuan waved his hand.
"How so?"
"I know what you're thinking. Although these people are indeed very ideal in terms of positioning, there are still physical problems."
"Mutation?"
"No, there is a difference from mutation. To be more accurate, they changed from living people to living dead. Their skin color is a bit close to the Demonic Humans, but there is a difference; it leans towards a cyan-gray."
Living dead...
Hearing Shang Chuan describe those people like this, Lan Qingyou couldn't help but frown again.
These guys had undoubtedly died once and were subsequently revived by the witches using the Resurrection Spell.
If looked at from this perspective, then these people indeed deserved to be called the 'living dead', after all, they really had died once.
"To be correct, the name of this new race is the Necromancer Race, but they call themselves the Forsaken Ones."
Shang Chuan continued.
"Necromancer Race... This name is quite fresh."
"What are their racial talents and modifications?"
Hearing a new race name they didn't know, everyone expressed great interest.
After all, inquiry into and fear of the unknown are the ladders of human progress.
Although not a single person at this table was human anymore.
However, although they didn't know exactly what the situation was with the other party, just relying on these two aspects, this group of experienced Manor members could roughly guess a thing or two.
"Their racial talent is Death Magic. The randomness of this is quite high; anything could possibly be obtained."
"As for modifications, there are attribute modifications, Summoning Studies Modification, Symbology Modification, and Drawing Studies Modification."
"Ho ho, looks like it's another race that excels in academics."
"These three academic modifications give a feeling of summoning specialization."
After all, for a race to have three types of academic modifications at once, no matter how you looked at it, it was a race that could birth great scholars.
One must know that some races only had two academic modifications, and some extreme ones didn't even have one.
"That's not right. Logically speaking, if these guys came to the Forsaken Territory and are still in this brand-new state, it shouldn't be that no witch mentioned this."
Lan Qingyou leaned back against the backrest.
Although the Forsaken Territory was now given to Shang Chuan to manage, there were still witches living there doing research.
Yet with such a big incident happening, actually no one explained it in the tea party?
It wasn't that Lan Qingyou was dissatisfied with these guys not saying anything.
Rather, she felt that for such an interesting matter, it was impossible for those witches who stayed behind not to participate.
However, Shang Chuan thought Lan Qingyou was dissatisfied with him keeping it from those witches in the Forsaken Territory, so he hurriedly explained.
"This only appeared shortly before I came, so the news hasn't spread yet. Otherwise, we wouldn't be sitting here chatting, but slashing and flaming each other on the world channel."
"I also only found out after someone's skin started to gradually change from a normal color to cyan-gray."
...
Alright, this was indeed a fact.
Lan Qingyou was momentarily speechless.
After all, for something like this related to evolution, as long as it was known, there would definitely be many people coming to find them for help or something.
"In other words, these people are slowly mutating right now?"
"You could say that. But everyone's mutation speed is different. So at the beginning, some people thought they had contracted some disease. As a result, when their skin color completely changed, even their race changed along with it."
Shang Chuan shrugged helplessly.
To be honest, if it wasn't for this gradual mutation method making those people feel they were sick but unable to find the cause, eventually finding him, he might still not know that someone was secretly mutating within his jurisdiction.
As for why they found him, the reason was also very simple.
Simply put, they wanted to find the witches through this cunning merchant.
In the eyes of these people who originally lived in the Forsaken Territory but died due to the war, the witches inherently represented absolute strength.
So when they learned that this cunning merchant was the proxy appointed by the Tower Witch, and saw that he also had witch bodyguards by his side, they found him, hoping he could report everyone's current situation to the Tower Witch.
Even when the person who found him completely mutated into the Necromancer Race a day later, they still maintained this attitude.
Hence the scene now of Shang Chuan bringing up this matter here.
"So, what do they want to do?"
Shang Chuan bringing up this matter was definitely not a simple intelligence sharing. Lan Qingyou was clear about this, and the Manor people around were also clear.
Of course, as a mouthpiece, Shang Chuan was also clear.
But precisely because he was clear, he was even more confused.
"I don't know. To be honest, the other party just asked me to tell you the current situation of these Forsaken Ones."
Forsaken Ones, huh...
Hearing this term again, the corners of Lan Qingyou's mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times.
People from the Forsaken Territory could be called Forsaken Ones.
But people who had been abandoned could also be called Forsaken Ones.
As for whether this self-proclaimed title of the Necromancer Race referred to the former or the latter, it was simply too easy to distinguish.
It was nothing more than saying she had abandoned them.
Alright.
Although she didn't issue the order, and even now she felt Diana's handling method was not a problem.
But the result had already been produced, after all, and in a way that no one had thought of.
Lan Qingyou was also very depressed.
Who would have thought that a Resurrection Spell could actually produce such an unheard-of matter.
"Then let them live in the Forsaken Territory. Also, allocate a batch of resources over. At the same time, have Diana conduct a screening and let those who have fought before serve as the management."
