The Skeleton Soldier Became a Necromancer Chapter 104

The Skeleton Soldier Became a Necromancer Chapter 104

The true value of unique grade equipment lies in the user-exclusive options.

This user-only option changes every time you strengthen your equipment.

At this time, it is affected by the order in which the user acquires skills.

‘+1 reinforcement is not linked to the common options of the equipment.’

Common options for the Black Ghost Coat include temperature and humidity adaptation to Class A and below.

So, the [Balanced Skeleton] obtained immediately after awakening has an option to respond to environments below C-class.

‘From the second time onwards, one of several options is randomly selected.’

In response to [Summon Skeleton Soldier] obtained through the Awakening Skill Book, the number of Skeleton Soldiers that can be summoned has been increased by 10%.

‘I was worried that [Bone Lord] was a skill with so many adjustments that any option would be useless.’

Fortunately, the best option was chosen.

And Seo Yi-jun’s third skill.

[Bone Strike] obtained from the D-class skill book obtained by becoming the <Conqueror of the E-class Gate>.

‘Whatever comes out here is generally okay.’

The unique options related to [Bone Strike] were pretty good.

‘Because the skill itself is so simple.’

Seo Yi-jun checked the information on the coat with a relaxed mind.

That’s what it was.

[+3 Black Ghost Coat]

… … .

3. User-only options

… … .

-[Bone Strike]: Increased skill activation probability [NEW!]

‘… … Increased activation probability?’

Seo Yi-jun frowned.

I thought most of the options were fine.

What that means is that there are still some duds.

‘That’s bad luck.’

What came out was just that dud.

‘Increased activation probability.’

[Bone Strike] is a skill that is originally activated randomly.

So an option to compensate for that probability.

‘Originally it would be the best option.’

But that wasn’t the case for Seo Yi-jun.

This is because [Lord of Bones] changed the skill from a random activation to a guaranteed activation when adjusting the skill.

That means the probability is already 100%.

There was no point in increasing the activation probability here.

‘… Is it because there was no prayer from Pastor Seonwoo Chan?’

+2 When strengthening, Seonwoochan said he prayed while calling on all the gods.

Did it fail this time because it wasn’t there?

That must have made me think that way.

but.

‘hmm?’

As I checked the skill information for [Bone Strike], all those thoughts disappeared.

[Bone Strike (C)]

-When hitting a bone, the following effects are [certainly] activated.

– Activation probability exceeding 100% is distributed to each option.

1. Additional damage 30% -> 35% [UP!]

2. Critical -> Critical+ activation [UP!]

3. Low probability -> Paralysis with slightly lower probability [UP!]

The [UP!] signs were overflowing as the 100% excess was used to increase the performance of each option.

Additional damage has increased.

Critical damage correction rate increases.

When hitting a bone, the probability of causing paralysis has also been raised from ‘low’ to ‘slightly low’.

‘This would be like picking three options at the same time.’

Considering Seo Yi-jun’s style of detonating [Bone Strike] like a normal attack, this leads to a tremendous increase in combat power.

‘Let’s keep going.’

There were still enough points and cores.

Seo Yijun didn’t stop there, and took out the next coat from his inventory. * * *

At a time when reinforcement is imminent.

“hmm.”

This time, Seo Yi-jun’s mind was truly at ease.

I hit the jackpot a little while ago, so even if I fail this time, I’ll still get my initial investment back… … It wasn’t the same mindset.

It was really just comfortable.

‘Because it’s already decided what will come out.’

There is no luck involved in +4 reinforcement.

Unlike the existing enhancements that adjusted the effects of skills in the order of Seo Yi-jun’s acquisition of skills.

This was because +4 reinforcement had a fixed effect.

Kuoooo!

Perhaps for that effect, the ghosts were swinging around more loudly than before.

If the existing reinforcement was a chaos where they were trying to eat each other.

Now it looked like a group dance.

‘… … A ghost.’

When I first strengthened by +1 and saw the ghosts dance.

Seo Yi-jun thought it was a shame that the armor wasn’t made of bone.

Well, seeing ghosts act like that didn’t really interest Seo Yi-jun.

Instead, the sight of bones rolling up and down would be fascinating to anyone who sees it.

‘I’ve changed my mind a little now.’

A bone-crunching sight?

Seo Yi-jun can make it happen.

If you think about it, the artificial sights created by the system reinforcement were more likely to be painful to Seo Yi-jun’s eyes than attractive.

Just like the catacombs’ gates did one after another.

‘Instead of feeling pain looking at that, I’d rather decorate the scenery myself.’

In that respect, it felt pretty good that the black coat was now made into a ghost.

‘Perhaps it was because I witnessed the souls of the comforted ghosts transform into spirits.’

I thought I had no connection with the ghost family, either in my past life or in this life.

‘Come to think of it, the shadows of the 7th Knights are also ghosts in some ways.’

[Suitable Person] Our relationship has deepened considerably thanks to the effect of the title.

As I was thinking about this and that, I looked at the bracelet on my wrist for a moment.

‘… … What is this?’

I discovered something unexpected.

Twinkle.

Parts of this bracelet were glowing to the beat.

“no way.”

Seo Yi-jun suddenly raised his head.

This bracelet has a sparkling beat.

It matched the dance of the ghosts coming out of the black ghost coats.

After a while.

As the military service stopped and the ghosts disappeared, putting their coats back together, the lights on the Bone Bracelet also went silent.

[[+3 Black Ghost Coat] Strengthens.]

[Points remaining: 3,415 -> 1,915]

[Cores Remaining: 36,000 -> 26,000]

‘… … What might have changed?’

+4 reinforcement is an upgrade of the first option exclusive to the user.

In the case of the Black Ghost Coat, it was planned to be upgraded to B-class from being able to respond to environments below C-class with [Balanced Skeleton].

[+4 Black Ghost Coat]

Grade: Unique

– A black coat made by weaving together the ghost’s body.

– Achieved communion with the spirits.

1. Common Options

– Maintains optimal temperature and humidity at gates of S-class and below.

… … .

3. User-only options

-[Balanced skeleton]: Able to maintain optimal temperature and humidity in gate environments below Class A

The black ghost coat that communicated with the consecration of the spirit was different.

‘A gate below S-class?’

The common option itself has been changed to apply to gates of S-class or lower, not gates of A-class or lower.

‘… … [Balanced skeleton] has risen to below A-class.’

The first user-only option has also been upgraded one step further than planned.

‘I never thought the blessings left behind by the spirits would have their effect here too.’

Even though I’m already responsible for the growth of this bracelet.

It even promoted the growth of the black magic coat.

“Phew… .”

Seo Yijun took a short breath and put the black ghost coat into his inventory.

It can’t be strengthened any further.

Not only do I not have enough points to proceed with the next reinforcement.

‘That’s all a normal hunter can strengthen on their own.’

+5 enhancement required more than just points, cores, and extra coats.

A crafter who knows how to handle unique equipment had to personally strengthen it.

‘There’s no need for a commission fee there.’

This is because various additional materials are consumed during the process of reinforcement by the manufacturer.

Therefore, the next reinforcement was scheduled to take place a little later. * * *

A few days later.

Seo Yi-jun got into the management agency’s vehicle.

“It’s been a while, Hunter!”

“Yes. I’m glad you came back safely.”

Seonwoochan was back in the driver’s seat.

“hello.”

Yeon Ha-eun was riding in the back seat.

Today was the day when Yeon Ha-eun showed off her skills as a B-class channel user.

“If we were to run a two-track system, we decided that it would be best to proceed through both gates simultaneously.”

The proposal was to proceed with gate and gate simultaneously, rather than proceed with gate and field simultaneously.

“Now that we have purified the racing field, we have decided that there is no field in the country that should be given priority over other fields.”

It was just as Yeon Ha-eun said.

Other fields, like the Seoul field, also contain the stories of the displaced people.

It was impossible to rank their stories.

“Instead, the Gyeongju field and LA’s second field were purified, and voices were raised in each country calling for the purification of fields that harbor ghosts.”

“Have other countries also changed their commission targets?”

“Yes. That means that it will soon be more beneficial for you, Hunter, to travel to overseas fields.”

“yes.”

Seo Yi-jun gave a short affirmative answer.

Purifying overseas fields not only expanded the scope of the brain and wave attacks contained in [Suitable Person], but also allowed for [Spirit Consecration].

Yeon Ha-eun added that it would also help Seo Yi-jun’s personal reputation, and continued speaking.

“But Hunter, you have no intention of going to overseas gates.”

We had to proceed with the domestic gate and overseas field at the same time, so there was a possibility that there would be some time in between.

“It would be okay if it were relatively close China and Japan, but… … Unfortunately, the two countries have not yet changed their target of requests.”

So, the opinion was that it would be better to change the gate to a two-track system.

“Let’s do that.”

Seo Yi-jun nodded readily, as he had left the task of planning such things up to the management.

Finally, the vehicle arrived at its destination.

“Chief Yeon Ha-eun, are you here?”

“Today is the director’s debut day.”

“Oh, Hunter Seo Yi-jun! It looks like Hunter Seo Yi-jun is in charge of escorting the chief today?”

The media personnel who had arrived in advance pointed their cameras and microphones at Yeon Ha-eun and Seo Yi-jun.

Today is the debut day of B-class channel user, Yeon Ha-eun.

‘Chief Yeon Ha-eun leaked that fact to the press.’

You have to show off your skills in front of the media so that the world will properly recognize the fact that a B-level channel user has emerged from Korea.

“Okay, I’ll be off.”

“Let’s go, Chief.”

[Enter the Spilled Milky Way (B).]

Seo Yi-jun and Yeon Ha-eun entered the B-class gate, the spilled Milky Way.

“Show up.”

‘Appear? Not ‘come out’?’

Yeon Ha-eun noticed that Seo Yi-jun’s commands were slightly different from usual.

And then I realized.

The secret to why Seo Yi-jun mentioned Gate to Track lies in this changed command.
