Undead Tyrant: Evolving from a Skeleton - Chapter 19

Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL

Picking up the skull of the elite skeleton swordsman and placing it on the body of a skeleton warrior whose skull had been melted by the corrosive venom, Bruce walked to the front of the first elite zombie.

He bent down and activated his talent.

When the familiar heat flowed into his body from the remains of this elite zombie, a few letters appeared on Bruce’s attribute panel.

—

“You have absorbed the essence of the corpse. Your body has become stronger.”

“Your strength has increased by 3 points.”

“Your vitality has increased by 8 points.”

“Your spirit has increased by 1 point.”

—

The corpse of an elite zombie had allowed Bruce to absorb 12 points of attributes, which was roughly equivalent to the number of attributes he had obtained after leveling up.

The elite zombie that he had transferred to was about to be emptied out by the dark altar and had weakened to the point that it was about to fall off the elite tier. These attribute points were not only not small, but also exceeded Bruce’s expectations.

Just like the first zombie, Bruce also devoured and absorbed the other three elite zombies. Bruce’s four-dimensional attributes once again increased by more than 30 points.

Bruce then walked towards the ferocious zombie that was about to break through to the warrior-level.

Even though its head had exploded due to failure of enslavement, this zombie still emitted an extremely ferocious aura, as if it would wake up at any time and devour all the undead around it.

Bruce felt a little excited looking at the huge corpse that was more than two meters long,.

Those three elite zombies were just a piece of cake. This fierce zombie that had almost broken through to the warrior level was the true harvest of this battle.

He was very excited, but he tried his best to suppress his excitement.

Bruce lay his bone palm on the tough zombie’s corpse, which was as hard as steel.

[ devour ] talent activated!

Instantly, a huge stream of heat gushed out from the corpse and entered Bruce’s body.

The corpse of an elite zombie would emit just a small stream of heat, but the corpse of this ferocious zombie emitted a huge river-like stream of heat.

As the stream of heat gushed in and as every minute and every second passed by, he felt his skeleton body growing rapidly.

After a full ten minutes, the corpse of the ferocious zombie collapsed and turned into a pile of black ashes. Bruce then opened his attributes panel.

—

“You have absorbed the essence of the corpse. Your body has become stronger!”

“Your strength has increased by 17 points.”

“Your agility has increased by 3 points.”

“Your vitality has increased by 26 points.”

“Your spirit has increased by 5 points.”

—

Bruce gained a total of 51 points of attributes values.

The number was evidence that the zombie was as powerful as he believed.

Perhaps its four-dimensional attributes were no longer inferior to those monsters that had truly stepped into the warrior-level.

Letting out a long breath, Bruce looked around the entire altar.

Following the death of the elite zombies, there was no longer a single zombie on the dark altar. The black crystal ball that was floating above the ferocious zombies was still floating above the ashes. It wasn’t completely lifeless and broken. It had absorbed the aura of death from the dark altar and the entire undead canyon.

He took a few steps forward.

Bruce reached out his hand and “plucked” the crystal ball.

When the crystal ball entered his hand, a series of information popped up on his attributes panel.

—

“You have gained 1,000 experience points.”

“You have gained 1,000 experience points.”

“You have gained 1,000 experience points.”

“You have gained…”

“…”

“Your strength attribute has increased by 5 points.”

“Your agility attribute has increased by 5 points.”

“Your vitality attribute has increased by 5 points.”

“Your spirit attribute has increased by 5 points.”

—

Bruce was surprised. A series of densely packed system messages popped up in a row!

He counted a total of more than ten messages. When he obtained the black crystal ball, he had obtained a total of 28,000 experience points. His four-dimensional attributes had also increased by 5 points. Among them, he also gained spirit attribute points, which was the most difficult to increase for the undead!

The aura of death—when Bruce obtained the crystal ball, it poured out the remaining aura of death into Bruce’s body.

The aura of death was a source of life for the undead, just like the aura of life was to living creatures. Pure energy from the aura of death, which had been stored in the crystal ball, had entered Bruce’s body.

That was why he had received such a huge upgrade in such a short time.

Bruce calculated his rapid growth.

The purest aura of death would have allowed the ferocious zombie to complete the final leap from the elite level to the warrior level. Now, all of it had been given to him.

Because of this, Bruce obtained such a huge harvest.

After absorbing the aura of death in the crystal ball, Bruce began to carefully examine the crystal ball.

The crystal ball was sparkling and translucent and was the size of an adult’s fist.

The entire ball was extremely smooth. It looked like a meticulously polished piece of crystal.

After losing the aura of death, the wisps of continuously floating mist also disappeared from the crystal ball.

Shortly after Bruce held it in his hand, the crystal ball’s specific attributes appeared.

[ name ] : Logris’s Crystal Ball

[ quality ] : dark gold

[ type ] : item

[ effect ] : Absorbs, stores, and automatically purifies the energy stored in the crystal ball. Current energy storage is 10,000 points.

[ item description ] : In the lost inheritance, Logris obtained this crystal ball and attempted to use this crystal ball together with the undead modification technique to create his own undead race of zombies.

—

With just a glance, he saw and understood its origin.

Bruce was ecstatic!

Without any hesitation, he grabbed the crystal ball and rushed out of the dark altar!

While he was running, Bruce ordered his remaining skeleton underlings to follow behind him. They left the dark altar together and rushed out of the undead canyon.

All the zombies had been killed.

The crystal ball was the core of the altar, and it was also taken away by Bruce. The tall dark altar has been abandoned.

Bruce and his underlings sprinted as they left the canyon.

When they reached the exit, Bruce ran faster and led his army. His skeletal underlings were led by the elite skeleton swordsman, which had fused with the body of the skeleton warrior. They were heading towards the direction they came from.

When the skeleton underlings arrived at the battlefield, they once again spread out under Bruce’s control. They continued to move in circles in the huge area around them.

This process lasted for more than half a day. Bruce and the skeleton underlings had completely covered up their traces so they could no longer be found and followed.

Bruce then ordered the skeleton underlings to meet up with him.
