Chapter 11: Mutated Strengthening Skill "Death Shadow Arrow
```
["Goblin Tribe" Level 20 dungeon cleared successfully, commencing clearance reward calculation.]
[You have gained 50,000 experience points.]
[You may stay in the dungeon for ten minutes, or be directly transported out.]
A golden light flashed over Zi Liyuan's body and disappeared, as his level rose once more, reaching Level 14 (8100/60,000).
He glanced casually at his attribute panel, briefly sorted through the loot from the dungeon, and exited the dungeon space directly, appearing in the altar square of White Crane Academy.
The sky was dotted with stars, but White Crane Academy was still bustling with activity.
Standing on one side of the altar, Zi Liyuan saw several figures rushing over hurriedly, all of whom had reached Level 10 without exception.
Players who reached Level 10 on the first day of awakening and changing jobs, even if it was just an ordinary profession, were definitely considered talented.
As for whether these people relied on family resources to reach Level 10, did that matter?
If others had resources, it was the result of their parents' efforts. One could only blame oneself for not choosing a wealthier family at birth.
After all, since the invasion of reality by the game, numerous restrictions were imposed by the game system.
For instance, leveling with a party, if any team member's level exceeded the others by more than 5 levels, the lower-level members would not receive any experience points.
As for not teaming up and helping by leaving monsters critically wounded for new players to deal the finishing blow, there were also restrictions.
Monster experience was distributed based on Contribution Value, so if you finished off a critically wounded monster, you would only get a very small amount of experience points.
Such game restrictions eliminated most players who wanted to take shortcuts.
After resting for less than half an hour, midnight arrived in the blink of an eye, the dungeon reset, signaling that Zi Liyuan could continue to run the dungeon twice more.
Without hesitation, he re-entered the dungeon space through the altar, choosing the "Goblin Tribe" dungeon again.
As the saying goes, the first time you're new, the second time you're familiar. For Zi Liyuan at this moment, except for the final boss which posed some difficulty, the rest could be easily bulldozed.
Two runs of the rare Level 20 dungeon netted a total of 300,000 experience points, shooting Zi Liyuan directly up to Level 18 (8100/100,000).
He also spent 5,000 experience points to upgrade his Skeleton Summoning to Level 4 (0/10,000).
[Skeleton Summoning (Level 4, 0/10,000)]: Using Spirit as a guide, consumes 10 units of Spiritual Energy to summon 8 Skeletons to fight for you. (The summoned Skeletons receive +6 Physical Damage, +6 Physical Defense, +60 Health, enhanced mutation skills enjoy similar effects.)]
With the level increase, the number of summons had doubled again, and he believed it wouldn't be long before unleashing an Undead disaster was no longer a dream.
[Player]: Zi Liyuan
[Level]: Level 18 (3100/100,000)
[Profession]: Necromancer (Apprentice)
[Talent]: Star of Fortune (Orange)
[Attributes]: Physique 27, Spirit 43, Spiritual Power 42.
[Comprehensive Attributes]: Health 2700, Spiritual Energy 4200, +37 Physical Damage, +61 Magic Damage, +37 Physical Resistance, +58 Magical Resistance
[Cultivation Technique]: Huaxia Empire's 9th Set Broadcast Gymnastics (White) Level 9 (MAX)
[Skills]: Skeleton Summoning (Level 4, 0/10,000, derivative enhancement skills: Summon Skeleton Warrior, Summon Skeleton Archer, Summon Vulture Skeleton, Summon Giant Fish Skeleton, Summon Skeleton Knight, Summon Skeleton Behemoth)]
[Spatial Backpack]: Nether Crystal Core (Multicolored), and so on...
After exceeding 4,000 points of Spiritual Energy, mutation enhancements (1~6) were all unlocked, so he modified them all using Nether Crystals.
```
This also led to another adjustment in the configuration of the Skeleton Army.
The mutated Skeleton Behemoth, with attributes far superior to those of the Shield Combat Skeleton, became the tank of this Skeleton Army.
As for offense, the Mutated Skeleton Knight, with its attack and mobility attributes surpassing both the berserker skeleton and the Crossbow Skeleton, thus reintroduced melee DPS into the ranks of the Skeleton Army.
——
On the second day of the Awakening, at 2 a.m.
Zi Liyuan returned to the largest professional market in White Crane City.
He disposed of the large quantity of materials obtained from the wilds and dungeons at a reasonably priced shop in one fell swoop.
The equipment received from dungeons and wild BOSSes was handed over to the official auction house, with a 6-hour auction time set.
With plenty of Dragon Coins at his disposal, he didn't need to sell materials and equipment to recuperate funds for the time being.
Unfortunately, it was very difficult for hidden classes like Necromancer to obtain profession-matching skill books.
Skill books for hidden classes were usually collected by the nine major academies and their subordinate first and second-tier institutions, with a few being purchased by major families at high prices, leaving very few circulating among the common folks.
Zi Liyuan had scanned the skill information on the official auction house from top to bottom and not a single low-level skill book related to death professions was found.
In the end, with no other options, he purchased a low-level dark skill book "Shadow Arrow."
After all, a Necromancer was still a Mage, and with a natural magic damage of 61 points, not having any magic skill output methods was unacceptable.
Shadow Arrow (White): Level 1 (0/100), takes 3 seconds to condense dark energy into an arrow to attack a target, dealing 10 + 60% of magic damage in dark damage, consuming 10 points of energy, no cooldown.
Fortunately, dark skills were barely compatible with the Necromancer, and they could be mutated and strengthened using Nether Crystal Cores to create more powerful skills.
There were only two paths for the mutation enhancement of Shadow Arrow.
Mutation Enhancement (1): Consuming 2000 units of energy, Shadow Arrow mutates into Shadow Arrow Rain;
Mutation Enhancement (2): Consuming 4000 units of energy, Shadow Arrow mutates into Death Shadow Arrow;
After taking some potions to restore Spiritual Energy, both skills underwent mutation enhancement.
Shadow Arrow Rain (Green, Level 1): Takes 3 seconds to condense a large amount of dark energy into 3 arrows, attacking three Spirit-locked targets, dealing 10 + 60% of magic damage in dark damage, consuming 30 points of energy, skill cooldown 15 seconds.
Death Shadow Arrow (Blue, Level 1): Takes 3 seconds to condense death dark energy into a death arrow, attacking a Spirit-locked target, dealing 100 + 120% of magic damage in death energy damage, consuming 100 points of energy, skill cooldown 30 seconds.
One is an Area of Effect skill, the other a high-burst skill.
Additionally, both skills would become more powerful as the "Shadow Arrow" skill level increased.
Without a doubt, original Level 18, with 3100 points of experience remaining in the pool, Zi Liyuan immediately invested 1100 points, raising "Shadow Arrow" to Level 3 (0/5000).
Each level up for the skill doubled the base damage and added a 5% magic damage bonus, while the skill casting time was reduced by 0.1 seconds.
Shadow Arrow (Level 3): Takes 2.8 seconds to condense shadow energy into an arrow, dealing dark damage of 40 + 70% magic damage.
Shadow Arrow Rain (Level 3): Takes 2.8 seconds to condense 5 shadow energy arrows, dealing dark damage of 40 + 70% magic damage.
Death Shadow Arrow (Level 3): Takes 2.8 seconds to condense death shadow energy into an arrow, dealing death energy damage of 400 + 130% magic damage.
To Zi Liyuan's regret, the cooldown for the two mutated skills hadn't changed after mutation enhancement.
It could be said that with this boost, Zi Liyuan's own damage output also became incredibly strong, and he wouldn't have to be relegated to being a mere spectator commander anymore.
