Necromancer: I Am A Disaster Chapter 246 - The Number Of Fresh Corpses Is Growing

Succubus Alice was among these Demons. Although she was only level 50, a low level among the Abyssal Demons, but her status was the highest as an envoy of the Succubus Queen, compelling the Abyssal Demons to obey her commands.

Jiang Hanshan, upon identifying the approaching Demons, sighed in relief. "Luckily, they're only high rank Demons, not lord rank."

The Abyssal World teemed with Demons, organized in a strict hierarchy. Demons were classified by level: below level 40 was ordinary Demon, level 40 to 69 was high-level Demon, and above level 70 was top-level Demon. Additionally, Demons were divided into ranks, with higher ranks signifying greater status: Demon, lord rank Demon, and Demon King rank Demon.

Lin Moyu was familiar with this hierarchy. The Crimson Moon Demon he had previously encountered was a lord rank Demon. In terms of status, Demons of the same level couldn't compare to it. Only top-level Demons above level 70 could match the level 55 Crimson Moon Demon. However, the Crimson Moon Demon was unique. Despite possessing lord rank strength, its mind was simplistic, lacking the intelligence typical of its rank, making it suitable only as a henchman.

The Dragonkind also had a hierarchy, though cruder and more primitive, reflecting their nature. Among Dragonkind, status was determined by bloodline purity, resulting in common and noble classes. Even a level 70 common Dragonkind held lower status and authority than a level 30 noble Dragonkind. Bloodline was paramount.

Among the approaching Dragonkind, some bore powerful bloodlines, evident from their auras and equipment. Their auras were more formidable, and their equipment was ornate, adorned with vibrant jewels, fitting their noble status.

Observing the rapidly approaching Dragonkind, Lin Moyu remarked, "Their equipment is quite impressive."

Mo Yun glanced at Lin Moyu askance. He was already eyeing their gear.

Lin Moyu turned to Jiang Hanshan and instructed, "When the time comes, follow my lead and use the flight restriction skill."

Jiang Hanshan nodded, "Understood."

The Shadow Mage also nodded, "Got it."

Jiang Hanshan placed his trust in Lin Moyu, and his party trusted Jiang Hanshan.

As the Abyssal Demons approached, they halted 500 meters away, spreading out across the sky, each maintaining a distance of over 100 meters from the others—a tactic to counter Lin Moyu's Corpse Explosion skill.

Alice, the farthest from Lin Moyu, fixed her gaze on him. Seeing his calm, even slightly relaxed expression, she felt a growing sense of fear. She tossed a crystal ball, its interior flickering with flames. With a loud bang, the crystal ball shattered upon hitting the ground, unleashing a vast sea of fire.

The flames were an eerie dark-green, burning fiercely on the solid black ground, instantly melting it into lava—a testament to their extreme heat.

Mo Yun and Jiang Hanshan's expressions changed drastically. Mo Yun exclaimed in shock, "Abyssal Fire!"

Lin Moyu looked puzzled; he had never heard of Abyssal Fire before.

Mo Yun explained, "Abyssal Fire is said to be the source of power for Abyssal Demons, the origin of the first Demon in the Abyss. Within its range, the power of Abyssal Demons is greatly enhanced."

Jiang Hanshan added, "In the presence of Abyssal Fire, the power of Abyssal Demons can increase by at least 30%."

Lin Moyu understood that Abyssal Fire acted as a significant status buff for Abyssal Demons, who already had the highest attributes among the three races. With this status buff, they would become even more formidable.

Jiang Hanshan continued, "Abyssal Fire is the reason why our human armies have failed to penetrate the Abyss. We must be careful."

After releasing the Abyssal Fire, Alice shouted, "Attack!"

Immediately, a horde of Abyssal Demons surged forward, their appearances ferocious, exuding powerful auras. Dark abyssal power surged in their hands as they unleashed a barrage of attacks.

The abyssal power transformed into black swords, raining down like a storm. Some of it combined with the Abyssal Fire, forming dark green fireballs that plummeted from the sky. The Abyssal Demons also flapped their wings, generating tornado-like attacks. Meanwhile, several Abyssal Demons in the sky suddenly vanished.

Jiang Hanshan shouted, "Be careful!" He wanted to protect Lin Moyu but was stopped by a single glance from him.

At the same moment, four slender daggers appeared around Lin Moyu. Four Abyssal Demons, capable of turning invisible, had snuck up on him.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Accompanied by four sharp sounds, Lin Moyu's Bone Armor shone brightly, blocking their attacks. He smirked and pressed down with his hand.

Skill: Slow Curse!

The figures of the four Abyssal Demons were revealed under the curse. Short in stature, about 1.5 meters tall, they crouched with small wings on their backs, unlike the tall, imposing high-level Demons.

Panic flashed in their eyes as they retreated swiftly, leaving afterimages in the air. Succubus Alice, observing Lin Moyu's slight smile, felt a chill down her spine, sensing something was wrong. Through the gaps between the skeletons, she noticed a fresh monster corpse.

Suddenly, a red light flashed again, and the Slow Curse was replaced by the Damage Curse, followed almost instantly by a loud explosion!

The monster corpse detonated, instantly killing the four Abyssal Demons. Although a level 55 monster might not match the level 60 Abyssal Demons in health, but the 10-fold amplification from the Damage Curse combined with the 10-fold amplification of the Corpse Explosion proved too much for them to withstand.

Jiang Hanshan shivered involuntarily. He recognized the four dead Demons as Abyssal Nightstalkers, similar to human Assassins. Known for their invisibility, speed, and explosive power, they specialized in ambushes and could potentially one-shot Mages and supports of the same level. However, their low health and defense made them vulnerable once caught. Still, they shouldn't have been one-shotted like this.

With four fresh corpses, the battle turned in their favor.

Alice bellowed from midair, "Spread out! Be careful of Lin Moyu's group attacks!"

A barrage of attacks from the Abyssal Demons rained down on Lin Moyu. His Bone Armor gleamed and creaked under the onslaught. The power of the attacks was formidable, although not on par with those from the Earth Evil Centipede, but just as potent as those from the Crimson Moon Demon. Even his Bone Armor couldn't withstand them for long.

Lin Moyu quickly recast his Bone Armor and that of Mo Yun. As for Jiang Hanshan and his party, there was no need to worry. The Shadow Mage cast a dark cloud that shielded them from all attacks.

The Abyssal Demons spread out, attacking from a distance—just as Succubus Alice had planned. She believed this was the safest approach. The failed surprise attack by the four Abyssal Nightstalkers had been just a test.

Ignoring the dispersed Abyssal Demons, Lin Moyu turned his attention to the Dragonkind class users charging toward them. The Dragonkind, simple in their thinking, rushed directly at them, not paying attention to the Abyssal Demons and focusing solely on reducing Lin Moyu to a pulp, according to the Dragon King's orders.

The supports cast status buffs in rapid succession as the melee fighters charged at Lin Moyu.

"This is the kind of fight I like!" Lin Moyu chuckled.

A skeleton picked up an Abyssal Nightstalker corpse and hurled it into the air.

Mo Yun whispered, "It's going to rain again."

Before Jiang Hanshan could react, a red light flashed, followed by a powerful explosion. The detonation in the air was even more devastating than on the ground. Nearly half of the Dragonkind class users were killed in the blast, their bodies plummeting in a grisly downpour.

Only then did Jiang Hanshan understand what Mo Yun meant by rain.

Even several Dragonkind nobles at the forefront, clad in ornate armor, were not spared. They, too, perished in the explosion.
