Money-grubbing Necromancer (145)
Blood Prison
Special guests have come to visit the main house. Four elderly people including Geomseon.
“Dragon blood, you need it?”
“Yes, I need it, but… … .”
“I knew this would happen, so I prepared it in advance. I’ll give it to you now.”
“You saved it?”
At those words, Geomseon nodded and said.
“Haha. Well then. Did you really think we could wipe our mouths clean with just one dragon corpse?”
“It was something I never expected… … .”
“If you need anything in the future, feel free to tell me. I’ll do whatever I can to help you.”
The three old men nodded.
After receiving great favor from Kim Min-woo.
Although he personally gave them all his numbers, Kim Min-woo didn’t ask for even one of the usual favors. Instead, he just occasionally greeted them and donated money.
That doesn’t mean that there was no need for help at all. It’s just that I endured it silently on my own.
That was a fact that could be seen just by looking at Kim Min-woo’s growth rate.
Rather, the older man was becoming more and more anxious.
This was especially true for the swordsman.
Not only himself, but even his granddaughter received help from him. It was a favor that he could never repay.
If it weren’t for Kim Min-woo, I would still be awkward with my granddaughter.
That was the kind of problem that even he, the so-called Sword Master, could not solve.
I guess I have to give you something.
Why is that young man so deep?
If you ask for something, he will help you whether he wants it or not.
In that sense, the dragon corpse was an object that was piled up one by one with his siblings.
“I have about 40 of them piled up. Where should I put them?”
… … 40?
Kim Min-woo let out an exclamation of admiration. Each and every one of the dragon tribes is a race that is at least a semi-boss to a boss monster. There are not one or two of them, but a whopping 40 of them.
What the heck is this?
There was nothing to throw away from the corpses of the dragon tribe. The blood could be used for the Blood Prison, the bones could be used for the undead including Cedric, and the materials could be used for future crafting.
Of course it’s expensive.
Of course, it’s not the money itself that’s the problem, but the process of actually getting it.
‘The genes have exploded.’
40 was enough to strengthen Merhen and Cedric as well as other undead hordes.
“I would be grateful. It just so happens that there is an empty space over there. Could you leave it there?”
“Okay.”
In this way, dragon corpses began to pour out endlessly from the four people’s inventories. Although not as large as the ancient dragons, they were corpses of a certain size.
If I had tried to buy this with money, it would have been worth at least 20 trillion won.
I took out the blood jade.
Soon, the round beads began to buzz. A red aura rose above the fallen dragon corpses.
[Would you like to absorb blood?]
The moment he nodded.
Chahak!
Blood gushing from all sides was sucked into the marble like an ebb tide.
“What a curious object. Is that why you needed blood?”
“Yes. If you absorb blood here, you can use it to strengthen the undead. Just like you did with bones.”
The bead continued to suck blood even while they were talking. Soon after, all the dragon corpses were dried and twisted.
[All the blood in the surrounding area has been absorbed! There is enough blood!]
[Hemorrhage 100% charged.]
[You can change the structure to Blood Jade. Would you like to do so?]
Hemolysis.
It was worthy of being called the best among bloods.
Naturally, the undead that would be in line first was decided.
Merhen and Cedric.
The two legion commanders appeared.
“Oh, Minwoo, are you a coward?”
The king asks curiously as he looks at the two.
“That’s right. These are the elders who take care of me. Say hello.”
Cedric, who had been looking at the net, nodded as if he understood.
-Are these the people who changed my hair?
“Oh. I’m going to change the blood too.”
-blood?
I showed the Blood Prison to Cedric. Merhen also came over and took a look.
-Wow, you’re strengthening it with dragon’s blood?
“Oh. Here are the dragon corpses. The elders here worked hard.”
-Thank you! Everyone worked hard to help Minwoo!
Merhen was seen running up to the four people and grabbing their hands one by one.
“Exploration. That, that young lady is… … .”

A poisonous snake asks carefully.
Merhen tilted her head at those words.
-Are you single by any chance?
“I have children too… … .”
-Huh? Then you know how rude it is to ask a woman’s age, right?
A poisonous horse that sinks in one room.
Cedric added.
-There’s nothing to be particularly uncomfortable about. We’re all the same age. We just don’t age.
-Minwoo! That’s all a lie. Merhen doesn’t age. You know that, right?
“Okay. Okay.”
Actually, I’m not sure.
What does it matter?
The important thing was that none of the four felt uncomfortable.
I approached her quietly and whispered.
“Elders, please understand. My summons are so unique… … .”
“Haha, I understand everything. Third Brother. The undead are actually older than they look. They don’t age. How can you not know the basics more than me, who lives in the mountains?”
“… … Aren’t there some individuals that are younger than they look? I asked just in case. Ahem.”
Added additional information about the poison horse.
Age sensitive.
I changed the subject appropriately.
“I’m thinking of strengthening the legion commanders. Would you like to see it, elders?”
“Is that okay?”
“Sure.”
I gave you 40 dragons.
Can’t you show me this much?
The function of the Blood Jade was activated.
That was the moment.
[The Blood Jade is opened!]
A room literally like a red prison popped up with a message.
It’s big enough to fit two or three people.
[When you place the target undead inside the blood jade, the strengthening begins.]
[The more undead you put in, the bigger the blood jade becomes. However, the strengthening effect may be distributed as the number increases.]
[Blood consumption varies depending on the level and abilities of the undead.]
-Is this a prison?
“It may look a bit like that, but come on in, the effect will be amazing.”
Of course.
I absorbed the blood of 40 dragons, so wouldn’t the effect be complete?
The good Merhen opened the prison door first and went in.
Next was Cedric.
That was the moment when the two entered.
[Both are undead with the potential to be powerful enough to accept dragon blood!]
[Estimated hemolysis consumption: 50%]
[Would you like to strengthen it?]
“do?”
-huh.
-However much.
[Reinforcement begins.]
With text.
A red mist-like aura began to form over the bodies of the two undead.
Cedric’s bones were starting to turn red. Merhen’s skin was also turning red.
“Are you sick or something?”
-No. It just feels like I’m soaking in hot water. I feel lethargic.
-That’s a perfect metaphor.
[The dragon’s blood is being absorbed into the bodies of the two undead.]
[Estimated time: 10 hours]
10 hours.
The strengthening process took quite some time.
‘Is it because I drank a lot of blood?’
but.
It absorbs half of the blood from 40 dragon corpses, which is equivalent to absorbing the blood of 20 dragons.
It would take some time for that to happen.
“It’ll take about 10 hours. Would you like to wait inside? Or… … .”
“Okay. Now that I’ve seen the general outline, I think I have a general idea.”
The three old men nodded in response to the swordsman’s words.
I saw something interesting, so that’s good.
I wasn’t curious enough to wait 10 hours to see the results.
Of course, it will get stronger as it eats dragon blood. No matter what the process was, as long as it helped Kim Min-woo, that was enough.
Now that you know what’s done, you’re done.
“Then I’ll go now.”
“You can rest for a bit before you go… … .”
“No. You have to always be diligent in your training so that you don’t fall behind.”
“Big brother, what you said is right. If we want to be able to give you even this little help, Minwoo, we have to work hard too.”
From the swordsmanship to the new spear.
He was showing great enthusiasm for training.
“But you won’t be bored. That girl, Isabella, has a lot of fighting spirit. She’ll be a great sparring partner.”
The king of fists speaks while sniffing.
It was a bonus that the muscles all over my body were already twitching as if I was feeling tense.
“Are you by any chance still at Geomhae-gak?”
“I saw it on my way out today. It didn’t look like it had any intention of going back for a while. You can tell just by looking at it. Its eyes are just fixed. Fixed.”
“Please keep it a secret for the time being.”
“Huh? I didn’t plan on telling you in the first place. People are okay, and this is this. Isn’t that right, hyungs?”
“Okay. We need to separate public and private life. I’m just going to train them in the basics. That alone will be enough to make them feel rewarded for staying here.”
The poison horse answered sharply.
They are truly trustworthy elders.
So the four of them went back.
After 10 hours.
[Reinforcement completed!]
The prison door opened with a message. Merhen came out with a sullen face.
[Merhen’s body is filled with dragon blood!]
[The Heart of the Demon Dragon is created!]
[Dragon Power Stage 1 is unlocked!]
[The ‘Rampage’ feature is now available!]
This message to Merhen.
And to Cedric.
[Cedric’s body is filled with dragon blood!]
[The Blood Dragon’s Heart is created.]
[Dragon Power Stage 1 is unlocked!]
[I am a knight!]
[Additional corrections are provided!]
[The ‘Manifestation’ function is activated.]
[Additional effects of the ‘Master of the Knight’ title are unlocked!]
Additionally, more messages came to mind. I was secretly thinking that since I was a knight, they might give me some kind of bonus.
‘Is it a home run?’
I looked at the two summoners.
First of all, let’s start with Merchen.
“What changed?”
-First of all, this!
[Merhen uses the first stage of the dragon’s power, the wings of a baby dragon.]
Flutter!
Behind Merhen’s back, graceful wings rose. The wings looked just like those of a dragon.
“Can I fly?”
-Yeah. I think I can do it. Just a moment.
Flap flap!
Her tiny wings flapped, and Merhen flew into the sky.
“Oh, it’s fast?”
-Yeah. If you use wind magic, you can move faster. Like this.
Wedge!
Merchen moves at high speed with the wind in an instant.
Kim Min-woo’s eyes lit up.
‘Good?’
The wizard’s weakness.
First of all, mobility.
Merhen’s mobility itself wasn’t all that fast either. She just moved around using magic.
But what if I had those wings?
‘Mobility will increase even more.’
Survival is greatly enhanced.
Merhen’s changes did not end there.
-Minwoo, there’s this too!
[Merhen uses the first stage of the dragon’s power, the dragon’s skin.]
Soon after, Merhen’s skin changed into that of a dragon.
“I’ll try an experiment. I need to see how strong it is.”
-Yeah. But it’s really hard. Even Minwoo’s sword won’t be able to penetrate it, right?
As Merhen said, the intensity was considerable. Even with the full force of the attack.
Kaang!
It was to the point where sparks were flying and it had to be blocked.
‘I guess I’ll have to eat a few more overlapping rooms to get through.’
It hadn’t even been equipped with defensive magic yet. If magic were mixed in here, it would be formidable. Finally, the rampage…
[Rampage begins!]
[All magical power increases by 30% for 10 minutes!]
[You can use magic up to five times in a row!]
A small dragon shape emerged over Merhen’s body. The damage that was amplified afterwards was at a brutal level.
[Merhen stacks Flame Fury (SS)!]
The fire energy gathered above her hand gradually turned red.
Pfft!
I could see the walls of the training grounds disappearing without a trace.
“Hey.”
Kim Min-woo was amazed.
The magic that was tightly packed and stacked up to five times had damage that was beyond imagination.
It’s not 5x level.
It exploded with damage of almost 8 times. The only downside is that it takes some time to cast.
‘Isn’t this awesome?’
This is really good.
Even just looking at Merchen, it was like that.
Even Cedric was a knight and had received additional compensation.
First, the title.
[Master of the Knight]
[He became the master of the knight Cedric.]
[Effect 1. The learning ability of all skeleton series summons increases significantly.]
[Effect 2. Skeletons can reach the dragon’s teeth.]
[Effect 3. Provides a strong sense of intimidation to dragon-related monsters.]
It remained the same up to effect 3.
But a new feature was unlocked in Effect 4.
[Effect 4. You can create Cedric’s comrade, the divine dragon Gleipnir.]
[Effect 5. Unopened.]
‘The Divine Dragon Gleipnir?’
Are you talking about the bone dragon we saw in the first arrangement?
As we looked into the effects in more detail, details emerged.
[Creating the Divine Dragon Gleipnir]
[Material List]
[1. Corpse of an ancient dragon over ten thousand years old]
[2. The Flower of Sorsalon]
[3. Bloodline of the Abyss Monarch]
[4. Balrog’s Blood 500L]
[5. 3 Eastern Witches’ Guild Threads]
[6. A Handful of Mimir’s Sighs]
Familiar and unfamiliar ingredients were mixed in here and there.
“Cedric. Do you know what the flowers of Sorsalon, the Oriental Witches’ Thread, and Mimir’s Sigh are?”
– Has the production of Gleipnir begun?
“uh.”
―It would be best not to try to make it right away. All the related materials are related to groups.
“organization?”
―The flower of Sorsalon is related to the Dragon Army, the thread is related to the Eastern Witches’ Association, and Mimir’s sigh is related to the Giants.
I got the general idea.
‘Thinking about it now just makes my head hurt.’
I guess they’ll come together one by one when the time comes.
He looked at Cedric with a proud look.
“So what did you get?”
-This is it.
Immediately after.
Cedric’s appearance has changed.
[The dragon’s spirit manifests!]
Not only had his bones turned completely red, but his size had also doubled.
The bones had become thicker, and the head, which was already close to a dragon, had changed to the point where it boasted a 100% synchronization rate with a dragon.
Flutter!
Red, bone wings rose from behind the creature.
[This is a ‘present’ state.]
[It lasts for 30 minutes.]
[Strength, Agility, and Stamina increase by 50%.]
[You can use Dragon Blood Slash.]
Cedric begins to fly freely using his wings.
When I used the Dragon Blood Slash, I saw a huge crescent-shaped red slash cutting through a straight line. This was also just as deadly.
It wasn’t as strong as Merhen’s 5-layer spell, but on the other hand, it had the advantage of having a very short casting time.
‘It’s the end.’
It was like a kind of awakening for the two legion commanders.
Power boost?
It’s literally explosive.
even…….
‘There’s still half the dragon’s blood left.’
This can be applied to all regular summons as well.
First of all, of course, you have to put in a lock.
Here are the Dullahan, Specter, and Skeleton.
There was an abundance of summoned creatures ready to inject dragon blood.
