Chapter 214: Unbelievable, three brand‑new Skills!

Jiang Chen saw that he obtained a new Skill: "Damage Curse."

The Skill description reads: "Damage Curse (Level 1): Curse enemies within a 1‑meter radius, increasing all damage they receive by 1 %, lasting 1 minute."

A faint smile curled at Jiang Chen's mouth; he felt excited about the Skill.

Although it is only Level 1 now, its range and increase are very limited, and even with his Compatibility it is not outstanding, but he knows that once the Skill level rises, the effect will be entirely different.

Jiang Chen's heart brimmed with anticipation; he could hardly wait to enter the Tyrant Desert to hunt for Desert Fruit and upgrade the Damage Curse Skill to its highest level.

The Skill's Red Light gradually faded, and Jiang Chen saw three pairs of eyes staring at him.

"This time it's Damage Curse, which can increase the damage enemies take," Jiang Chen explained.

The three of them immediately understood; Damage Curse is a Skill that forms a stark contrast to the auxiliary defensive boost.

The Prophet's state enhances one's own defense to reduce damage, whereas Jiang Chen's curse weakens the enemy's defense, thereby increasing damage.

Both Curse Skills have excellent uses individually and are extremely powerful Skills.

Hong Jishi gradually realized that the Necromancer Summoner profession seems to have no discarded Skills.

"Continue! One hundred each time!" Hong Jishi said.

Jiang Chen nodded and began using Skill Scrolls.

One hundred each time, batch after batch of Skill Scrolls were activated, shining with bright light.

However, the first attempt failed.

The second time, failed.

The third time, the fourth time…

All four consecutive attempts failed to awaken a new Skill.

Hong Jishi frowned and said, "Come, two hundred at once."

Now only 200 initial

Level Skill Scrolls.

Jiang Chen did not hesitate either and activated directly.

Anyway, once they're used up, he'll just buy more.

Money is spent; he'll just earn more.

Two hundred Skill Scrolls burst into dazzling light that enveloped Jiang Chen.

The light quickly dimmed.

"Failed!"

Jiang Chen let out a light sigh in his heart.

Not only him, Hong Jishi also felt the failure.

Suddenly he thought something was wrong.

Jiang Chen abruptly lifted his head: "Something's wrong!"

The light turned dark, but did not vanish.

Instead it turned black.

Then Jiang Chen saw, in the darkness, a beam of pure white light burst out.

Like the first ray that shatters the heavens' darkness, it burst forth and explosively scattered into countless stars, dazzling and brilliant.

"Acquired Skill: Bone Fang"

"Bone Fang LV1: Release Bone Fang to attack enemies; the number and power of Bone Fang depend on the Skill level and one's Spiritual Power."

Dark‑type attack Skill.

Wrong.

Jiang Chen immediately dismissed the thought.

Based on his current profession, this Skill should, like Bone Armor, belong to the Bone System.

Currently his profession's Skills can be divided into Soul System, Summoning System, Curse System, and Bone System.

Completely different from the Mage's Elemental System; although the Necromancer Summoner also bears the title of Mage, it is fundamentally unlike a Mage.

Four Schools Skills; none of the four is weak.

Jiang Chen believes Bone Fang is certainly not inferior.

Moreover, the quantity varies with level, indicating Bone Fang is an area‑of‑effect Skill.

Jiang Chen gave a brief explanation of the Skill.

Hong Jishi pointed at the sky and said, "Release it!"

Jiang Chen let out a sound of acknowledgment and released Bone Fang.

Buzz!

A low rumble sounded as a row of Bone Fang flew from Jiang Chen's hand, generating a powerful

wind‑cutting sound, razor‑sharp, soaring straight into the sky.

Then they exploded one by one in the air, emitting pure white light.

That row of Bone Fang numbered forty pieces.

The power looked quite good.

Hong Jishi looked at Li Xueru: "How do you feel?"

Li Xueru said, "The attack power is okay."

"What do you mean 'okay'?"

Li Xueru glared at him: "Each Fang's power is about the same as a Level 30 Perfect State Mage Fireball."

Hong Jishi's eyes widened: "That much power? It's only Level 1."

The "full state" Li Xueru mentioned is not only that the support state is maxed, but also that the equipment is complete—at least a Gold-level Equipment Set—and the skills have reached Level 30, a state where nothing more can be upgraded.

Li Xueru shook his head: "It's not that the skill's power is high; it's Jiang Chen's innate talent that's strong, greatly amplifying the skill."

"That's the same!" Hong Jishi waved his hand: "In that case, if a skill is cultivated to Level 30, its power can increase by many times at least."

"Theoretically, that's correct!" Li Xueru gave a confirming answer.

Jiang Chen knew that his Bone Fang, combined with his Amplify talent, had its power increased fortyfold.

Not only the power increased fortyfold, but the quantity also rose fortyfold.

Otherwise a Level‑1 Bone Fang couldn't possibly have as many as forty pieces.

Jiang Chen looked forward to seeing how it would turn out after the level rises.

At least he now possessed an active group attack skill.

No longer limited to the monotonous Soul Burn.

The attack methods are diversified, which brings many benefits for Magic Class professions.

Having exhausted his Skill Scrolls, Jiang Chen asked, "Teacher, should I go buy some Beginner Skill Scrolls?"

Hong Jishi shook.

His head: "Hold on, let Lao Li check how many skills you still haven't learned."

"Can that be measured?" Jiang Chen had never heard of it.

He was rather lacking in knowledge on that front.

Hong Jishi gave a mysterious smile: "Others can't, but Lao Li can; it's not 100% accurate, just an approximate estimate."

Jiang Chen nodded; the Divine-level Professional's methods are unfathomable, and his understanding of the profession far exceeds that of ordinary people.

Being able to do things others can't is also normal.

"I trouble you, Senior Li," Jiang Chen respectfully bowed to Li Xueru.

Li Xueru gave a slight smile, and a breeze of clear wind fluttered from his fingertips.

It seemed to be a Detection Technique.

With Li Xueru's level, a single glance is enough to see Jiang Chen's attributes; there's no need for a Detection Technique at all.

The breeze circled Jiang Chen repeatedly, round after round.

After circling a dozen or so times, it finally returned to Li Xueru's hand.

Hong Jishi was the first to ask, "How is it?"

Li Xueru shook his head: "It's strange; the detection isn't very clear. It seems there's another one, but not many."

Hong Jishi frowned: "What do you mean by 'seems'? If it exists, it exists; if not, it doesn't."

Li Xueru sensed again carefully: "There should be one or two more skills."

Still not a definitive answer.

Hong Jishi chose to trust Li Xueru: "Use the flashing Beginner Skill Scroll."

Jiang Chen nodded and took out a flashing Beginner Skill Scroll.

The flashing Beginner Skill Scroll emitted brilliant golden light.

The golden specks burst outward like a fountain, beautiful and splendid.

Unlike ordinary scrolls, this one hovered in midair, rotating slowly and continuously.

Jiang Chen infused Spirit Power and began activation.

Huh?

The scroll showed no sign of movement.

Hong Jishi said, "More Spirit Power, this thing"

is not easy to activate.

Jiang Chen nodded and immediately increased his Spirit Power.

A massive influx of Spirit Power made the golden light on the scroll grow brighter, becoming dazzling.

Bang! (a light sound)

The Skill Scroll finally exploded.

At the moment it burst, the entire Hong Shen Courtyard was enveloped in golden light.

The flashing Beginner Skill Scroll caused quite a commotion.

Amid the golden light, Jiang Chen saw a peculiar scene.

A Skeleton Army marched orderly in the view, with Skeleton Warriors at the front, forming a square formation, vast and imposing.

Skeleton Mages were behind, their elemental power radiating, their might shaking the heavens.

Behind the Skeleton Army stood an undead figure like a general, commanding the Skeleton Army.

"Acquired skill: Summon Lich General"

"Summon Lich General LV1: Summon a Lich General, gather Skeleton Warriors and Skeleton Mages, forming an Undead Legion."

"The number of the Undead Legion depends on the Summon General skill level."

"The Undead Legion belongs to the Lich General and does not occupy the Summon Queue."

"If the Lich General dies, the Undead Legion it led will return to the Summoner's command."

With this skill's appearance, his base attributes gained an entry: Undead Legion (0/10).

Jiang Chen watched it repeatedly, began to grasp the skill's specific meaning, and his whole body started trembling.

Hong Jishi noticed Jiang Chen was off and asked, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Chen said, "Teacher, I think I've awakened a very powerful skill."

"Oh? Tell me about it!"

Jiang Chen finished speaking, and Hong Jishi let out a strange cry, directly leaping into the air.

He was more excited than Jiang Chen.

Lin Zhenzi's mouth twitched nonstop, this skill is too perverse.

Li Xueru sighed, "Really, a single person can form an army...

! This profession is very strong, terrifyingly strong!"

Each Lich General can command a group of Skeleton Warriors and Skeleton Mages, forming an Undead Legion.

And it occupies only one Undead Legion slot.

Now Jiang Chen can summon 10 Lich Generals, which equals 10 Undead Legions.

As the level rises, the number of slots a Lich General can summon will increase.

A Level 30 Lich General can command 300 Skeletons.

Ten Undead Legions will cause the Skeleton count to surge to 3,000.

This number is exactly ten times larger than before.

Hong Jishi could no longer wait: "Quick, summon one and see."

Jiang Chen let out an "oh" and immediately prepared to summon.

Suddenly his whole body trembled, a wry smile appearing: "Can't summon, Spiritual Power insufficient."

To activate the flash scroll, Jiang Chen expended a lot of Spiritual Power.

Now Spiritual Power is only 3,000, yet summoning a Lich General requires 4,000 Spiritual Power.

"Old Li!" Hong Jishi lightly shouted.

Li Xueru shot a ray of light from their fingertip onto Jiang Chen.

Spiritual Power quickly recovered.

When Spiritual Power recovered to 4,000, Jiang Chen began using the Skill.

Skill: Summon Lich General!

Gusts of dark wind blew repeatedly, growing stronger, and behind them the dark wind began to howl.

The sky also darkened at that moment, with black clouds covering the sun.

The Skill's effect was enormous.

Lin Zhenzi frowned, expression solemn: "This Skill can affect the heavens, like a Forbidden Curse!"

Hong Jishi and Li Xueru were also startled by the Skill's magnitude.

In their line of sight, a Lich General taller than three meters, massive and hulking, wielding a White Bone Staff, appeared beside Jiang Chen.

Only 1

Level 1 Lich General, with impressive aura, seemed extremely powerful.

Even its whole body was enveloped in a grim, murderous aura!
