Chapter 32: Necromancer
The fire of the soul cannot be seen all the time. It should be said that the soul is invisible, and its true appearance can only be revealed when it is burning. The soul that cannot reveal its shape is also called the fire of the soul among undead creatures.
.
Every undead creature has soul fire in its body. Even if it is dead, the soul power still acts as muscles and tendons to facilitate the undead creature's movement. When the soul fire stops burning (that is, dissipates), it loses power.
The undead creature will turn back into a corpse. The dissipated soul fire is a completely different concept from the ordinary soul. When it dissipates, the soul has completely left, or should be said to be "no more".
Soul power is the basis for the actions of undead creatures, so the power of soul fire is directly proportional to the level of the undead creature. The lowest level soul has no self-awareness, cannot burn soul fire, and cannot even attach to a corpse; slightly higher levels
The soul fires of the dots (that is, the low-level ones in the game) show a faint blue color. They wander in the sea of bones, searching for the body in death until the soul power is exhausted and turns into nothingness. The lucky ones who get the body can
Provide slightly better protection for soul fire. You must know that soul fire is very fragile.

On the left, no.
There is none on the right either.
In the west of the Ocean of Bones, Qingyi looked around in a daze. What appeared in front of his eyes was an empty and silent world, with countless soul fires burning silently. Although it seemed spectacular the first few times he looked at it, over time, Qingyi also
got used to.
He's here for a reason.
"Go and find powerful subordinates. This will help your development." After sending Schroeder Bray away, Robert, the old immortal, slowly said this in a tone that sounded like a stickman.
After saying this, he kicked Qingyi to this place where birds do not lay eggs. But as far as he could see, most of them were souls that could not be burned, and there was not even a single high-level soul fire.
Qingyi cursed, but did not close the [Eye of the Soul]. Firstly, it was because he had to find a high-level NPC to go back to for business, and secondly, because he was surrounded by groups of zombies. Instead of facing those disgusting faces, it would be better to
Look at these soul fires that are like works of art; everyone has this habit of pursuing "beauty". For example, when doing something inappropriate for children with his girlfriend, he closes his eyes and thinks about popular actresses, eh
, the principles are the same.
Well?
That place seems a little different? The soul force field... seems a little distorted?
Qingyi discovered something strange and walked over quickly. Although in the soul's vision, this distance seemed to be reachable with a snap of the fingers, in fact it took more than ten minutes to walk.
The so-called soul force field is easy to explain.
The first thing to say is that souls can also communicate with each other. According to the beating frequency of the soul fire, they will emit waves centered on themselves. Different waves are different sentences, and there is a tacit understanding between undead creatures, so it is impossible to
The two sentences "Have you eaten?" and "Hahaha, the weather is so damn nice" are wrong. The vocal cords of undead creatures are difficult to produce sounds, and the skeleton soldiers have no vocal cords, so their conversation is actually
It is simulated by soul fluctuations. For example, Qingyi and Robert, they were talking happily, but to the living player, they looked like two skeletons staring at each other with big eyes.
These fluctuations are similar to the magician's mental power tentacles. They are all manifestations of "force". The mutual interference between "forces" creates "fields" one by one. What pure magic creates is the field, the mental power.
What is mixed with magic is the aura, what gravity constructs is the gravitational field... and what the soul power forms is naturally the soul force field.
In the soul vision, the soul force field is the ripples emanating with each soul fire as the center. The ripples are scattered and intertwined, and the more powerful the soul fire, the farther away the ripples can be spread.
, the larger the force field is formed. Well, you can imagine two people jumping into the water at the same time, and the fat one can make a bigger splash.
Now, the strange thing that appears in front of Qingyi is that there is a twisted soul force field in front of him. It is wrong to say that it is twisted. It is much larger than other soul force fields, and the fluctuations are very stable; but for some reason, the other soul force fields in it are
The soul fire was also vigorously emitting waves, intertwining and crowding each other, causing the soul force field in this area to become distorted.
"Powerful soul!"
The closer he gets, the more excited Qingyi becomes. Only when he gets closer can he feel the power of the ripples - like lines of fire that will not go out, completely different from other translucent fluctuations! Look at the force field again
The soul fire in the center is rotating and burning feverishly - perhaps it should be called an "explosion"? It is simply a small sun! This is proof of a high-level NPC!
Around this soul fire, other soul fires can also burn to a higher level, but this kind of burning cannot be supported by their souls, so from time to time some soul fires dissipate, resulting in the soul force field
The partial distortion is like a piece of cake that a mouse has taken a few bites of.
Qingyi immediately deactivated [Eye of the Soul], and he was very interested in the hiding places of NPCs. He had previously summarized the rule that "the more advanced NPCs appear, the more decorations they have in the ruins where they appear," which can be used to prove that——
What?
He was dumbfounded and spun around in circles, still dumbfounded.
There wasn't even a single ruin in front of me.
Why not! This way you can’t even guess the identity of the other party, right?! Qingyi scratched his head and honestly activated [Soul Call] to see what was going on. During the chanting, a strong wind suddenly arose, and a man’s body was in tatters.
The rotten zombie suddenly climbed up from the bones and shouted: "Hell, who interrupted my work!"
Qingyi stared at the zombie in shock. The zombie was really in tatters. His clothes were only shorts and his upper body was bare, but his muscles had long since fallen off in large chunks, revealing a yellow-red skeleton. His face was well preserved.
It is still complete, with a somewhat fat face, hair like flames pointing angrily at the sky; a short and stocky body, and holding a big hammer in his hand.
"Oh, he is a respected adult!" The other party finally saw some clues, and immediately inserted the big hammer into the waistband of his pants, rubbed his hands, and showed a somewhat honest smile. "It's really great that a small store can welcome such a big shot like you...
…It’s so… so welcome!”
Damn, if you take the Chinese language test, you will definitely fail. At this moment, Qingyi inexplicably thought of going elsewhere. He shook his head and asked suspiciously: "What... do you do?"
"I'm a shoe repairman, sir!"
Qingyi almost fell to the ground, stood up awkwardly, and asked tentatively again: "You, what did you say? Can you say it again?"
"Sir, are you deaf? I am a leather shoe repairman. My family has been doing this since my grandfather's generation!" The other party's voice was loud and proud, as if he was on the podium.
Qingyi turned around and left: "Sorry, I came to the wrong place."
"Sir! Are you dissatisfied with my service attitude? I haven't started serving yet!"
"I don't have leather shoes for you to repair."
"Who said I can only repair leather shoes!" The other party roared with majesty, and the fire of the soul burned like an explosion, which shocked Qingyi. "I will be the best master craftsman, I will definitely do it!"
———————————————————————————————————
Femur, the undead repairman: a high-level NPC. He was an unsuccessful shoe repairman during his lifetime. He dreamed of becoming the most famous master craftsman in the mainland, but he died of an epileptic seizure. He died young in order to fulfill his last wish.
, resurrected again, and explored the path of a master craftsman. It seems that I have not realized the fact that I have died. I must shout passionate slogans while working.
Race: Constructed Necromancer (Necromancer)
Requirements: food (2 meals/day) sleep (8 hours/day) salary (none) building (blacksmith shop branch building - handicraft workshop) special (helper)
Note: Do not mention your death in front of them, otherwise you will fall into a state similar to epilepsy for two hours.
Special effect: Because his warm-blooded personality is extremely contagious, the work efficiency of other NPCs under his subordinates will increase by 10%.
[Manufacture Equipment] As long as there are blueprints, Fermat can make equipment that meets the quality.
[Recycling] Fermat's unique craft. He can ingeniously reuse the corpses of dissipated undead creatures to make equipment or construct undead creatures (if the new undead creatures dissipate, you cannot use [Recycle]
Resurrection by means other than reconstruction). It can also be used to repair equipment.

"Handcraft workshop?..."
How can we afford to build branch buildings now that the city has not yet been deciphered? Waterboro? Cullen's Colosseum will not appear for who knows how many years, and there is another living treasure that requires branch buildings... However,
Equipment is a problem. You can't let your skeleton soldiers always hold the white equipment given by the system, right? To develop your own power, Feima is a talent that must be recruited.
"Okay, Fermat, how about coming back with me?" Qingyi patted Fermat on the shoulder, quietly peeked at his chest from the side, and couldn't help but secretly exclaimed: How thick does this guy have to be to not notice the fact of his own death?
ah?
"I have always wanted to make a weapon as my first work! Sir, if you can provide me with some materials, I will be honored to go back with you."
Although you clearly know that it is a task process, you are too arrogant in your words! Do you really think of yourself as a master craftsman?! And the wording is completely substandard! Qingyi flipped through the item bag angrily: "Tell me, what materials?
"
"Steel!"
"Steel?" Qingyi thought for a while. It seemed that all the steel he bought from Schroeder Bray had been used as construction materials. How could there be any excess? "Can we not use steel? What about wood?"
"Of course not, sir!" As if he was greatly insulted, Fermat slapped his chest and shouted: "Only steel is the symbol of manhood!"
