Undead Tyrant: Evolving from a Skeleton - Chapter 21

“This is a combination of free attribute points and skill points?”

Bruce had an epiphany.

He was a skeleton.

He also had a monster template.

Monsters did not have the concept of free attribute points and skill points.

Players’ four-dimensional attributes were increased by relying on the free attribute points obtained from leveling up. Therefore, players could freely choose their own ways of adding points. However, the four-dimensional attributes of monsters completely relied on the class template.

The leveling-up of a player’s skills consumed skill points. The source of skill points could be brought by leveling-up, or it could be brought by some hidden quests.

The leveling-up of a monster’s skills was different. Other than when it crossed a certain level, the system would give it an upgrade. It could only increase its skill level by releasing skills over and over again to obtain skill proficiency. (Players could also do the same.)

It was very obvious.

If he was correct, the 5 Omni points that he obtained could be used as free attribute points to increase his four-dimensional attributes. It could also be used as skill points to increase his skill level!

‘But…where did these 5 Omni points come from?’ he wondered.

Bruce once again fell into deep thought.

Recalling everything he had done during this period of time, he seemed to have some guesses.

“5 Omni Points…5 elite zombies…Could it be that these 5 Omni points were brought about by killing those 5 elite zombies?” he said.

Bruce made a wild guess. Verifying this guess was very simple. He only needed to kill another elite skeleton.

There was no rush.

What he needed to consider now was how to use these five precious Omni points.

He didn’t need to dwell so much on his four-dimensional attributes.

With the [ devour ] talent, he had countless opportunities to increase his four-dimensional attributes.

The skill did not seem to be that urgent at the moment.

He only had the [ Sky-splitter ] skill. Even if the level of this skill increased, it would only allow him to cast it a few more times.

He didn’t want to use these five precious free points before he could figure out how he got them. Besides, his skill could be upgraded on its own.

‘What if…’ A thought appeared in his mind.

Bruce tentatively pulled out the two elite class templates that he had obtained. What if he tried to add points to them?

In an instant, the two completely different elite class templates shone brightly. There was a fusion between the two templates.

—

[ template ] : Elite Skeleton Swordsman

[ rank ] : elite class template

[ bonus ] : health + 1,000, strength * 15, agility * 12, vitality * 20, spirit * 0.5

[ skill ] : double speed

[ speed increase: active skill. Consumes one-tenth of your stamina and gains a movement speed of * 1.5 for a short period of time. Skill duration: 5 seconds. ]

—

[ template ] : Zombie

[ rank ] : elite class template

[ bonus ] : health + 3,000, strength * 16, agility * 3, vitality * 35, spirit * 1

[ skill ] : corrosive venom

[ Wide corrosive venom: active skill. After being bathed in the aura of death for a long time, a large amount of corrosive venom has accumulated in the zombie’s body. When encountering an enemy, the zombie can spit it out from a distance, dealing 0.5 corrosive damage to the enemy’s spirit * 1 + vitality *]

These were the two elite class templates that Bruce had obtained.

He tentatively placed his free points into the class templates. The two elite class templates were both shining brightly, proving that his train of thought was not wrong. Free points could indeed be used to strengthen the class templates!

Only 1 free point was invested, but the two class templates were already shining brightly.

With 2 Omni points invested, the two class templates were on the verge of shattering.

With 3 Omni points invested, the two class templates were completely shattered! The two balls of light representing the class templates also began to fuse at this moment.

However, the fusion speed was extremely slow!

“Isn’t it enough?” Looking at his remaining Omni Points, Bruce gritted his teeth and invested the last 2 Omni points into the fusion of the two class templates!

The light faded.

The elite skeleton swordsman and zombie class templates had disappeared.

In their place was a brand-new class template.

—

[ template ] : heavy skeleton creator

[ rank ] : elite class template

[ bonus ] : health + 2,500, strength * 20, agility * 15, vitality * 30, spirit * 3

[ skill ] : tentative

—

From the data, Bruce knew that the new elite class template that he had obtained could be considered as the enhanced and upgraded version of the elite skeleton swordsman and zombies.

This class template combined the advantages of the elite skeleton swordsman and zombies, and it enhanced them.

The HP and attribute growth surpassed the attributes of the elite skeleton swordsman, and it also eliminated slow movement, which was the biggest weakness of the zombies. It was omnipotent!

—

Ding!

“You have obtained an exclusive elite class template—Heavy Skeleton Swordsman.”

“You can choose one of the following skills as the skill that comes with the class template.”

—

Following the sound of the system notification in his mind, several options appeared in his field of vision.

The first two skills did not need to be mentioned. They came from the elite skeleton swordsman and the zombie class template. The former was a skill that the elite skeleton swordsman used to escape the sea of skeletons. The latter was a skill that the elite zombies used to corrode the many underlings of Bruce.

The last two were the skills that the system (or the game rules) carefully crafted according to the elite class template that Bruce had created!

[ Gale combo ] focused on attack.

[ White bone armor ] focused on defense.

From the aspect of the skill, it was obvious that [ white bone armor ] was more suited for the heavy skeleton swordsman class change. Without armor, what would he be?

However, among Bruce’s four-dimensional attributes, his vitality was the highest.

The new elite class template that he had obtained also added the highest bonus to his HP and vitality.

With the combination of the two, Bruce’s HP and defense in the elite class was no less than that of the warrior class. Only those in the warrior class could surpass him in this aspect.

As a result, Bruce’s requirements for vitality and defense were greatly reduced.

In addition, he had obtained the heavy skeleton swordsman class template through the free points fusion platform. Once he changed classes, it meant that he would not be able to change classes through conventional methods in the future. He would only be able to obtain the class template by killing warrior-ranked monsters. Then, through the free points fusion method, he could continue to advance.

This required him to have sufficient survivability and sufficient attack power!

Combining all the above, Gale combo was the best choice for Bruce.

“I choose Gale combo!”

Following Bruce’s choice, the other three skills disappeared. Gale combo was also integrated into the class template, becoming an elite class skill, similar to that of the heavy skeleton swordsman.

—

“You have obtained the class change information of the elite class template, heavy skeleton swordsman.”

“Class change conditions met.”

“Would you like to change class to ‘Heavy Skeleton Swordsman’?”

—

When the crisp system notifications sounded again, Bruce did not hesitate and chose to change class.

Heat streamed into Bruce’s body.

His skeleton body began to change at this moment.
