The Skeleton Soldier Became a Necromancer Episode 044
‘First, we need to verify whether Mudman’s immunity is truly swordsmanship.’
Maybe it’s not a specific attack, but rather a targeted attack.
-Dalgrak!
In response to Seo Yi-jun’s call, skeleton soldiers rushed out.
To make the experiment more certain, I did not use the brain attack that infuses brain power into magic power.
Thump!
Thump thump!
The skeleton soldiers’ attacks, just like Yoo Hye-ryeong’s, were completely ineffective.
“Come out.”
-Less!
The guard waved his scythe-wielding right arm with great vigor.
WHACK!
Unlike the swords of Yoo Hye-ryeong or the skeleton soldier, the scythe of the guards clearly cut through the mudman’s surface.
“… … .”
Yoo Hye-ryeong was observing the scene closely.
‘He’s a good hunter.’
A situation where a C-class hunter summons a monster with a peculiar appearance and skeleton soldier that is being attacked by a monster that is immune to his attacks.
You may feel confused, annoyed, or even suspicious when you are unable to accept this situation.
But Yoo Hye-ryeong just calmly observed Mudman.
It was proof that Yoo Hye-ryeong was a good hunter.
That was when.
Warm.
Subtle changes began to occur in Mudman.
There are a total of seven pebbles embedded in the Mudman’s face.
The pebble embedded in his forehead is black.
The center of the face, both temples, both cheeks, and the chin are white.
‘I was wondering what kind of design it was.’
-Less!
The moment the guard was about to take advantage of his momentum and bring down the scythe on his right arm.
Warm.
One of the pebbles on the temple turned black.
Thud!
The guard’s sickle did not work.
Just like Yoo Hye-ryeong’s swordsmanship.
-Gewoooooooooo!
Something suddenly rose up from within Mudman.
‘…face?’
Sharp facial features that emerge from within the Mudman.
It was a human face.
This is not the face of Kim Woo-hee or Kim Woo-hyung, who are presumed to have been eaten by Mudman.
This is the first time Seo Yi-jun has seen this person.
“… You’re Hunter Park Seung-ju.”
But Yoo Hye-ryeong found out who he was. * * *
Guilds that are larger than a certain size tend to seek out social reputation.
A typical example of reputation management is field hunting.
Park Seung-ju, a B-rank hunter from the Haetae Guild, was dispatched to the DMZ field a year ago to gain guild reputation and then went missing.
“Although only one at a time, it had the characteristic of becoming resistant to attacks when attacked.”
It wasn’t like Kim Woo-hee’s [Fire Magic] or Kim Woo-hyung’s [Cold Magic] that it was displaying the characteristics of the opponent it had eaten.
‘The face from earlier was connected to the Mudman’s skeleton.’
Park Seung-ju was a key element that formed Mudman along with Mud Slime.
‘I was wondering why the mud slime had a human skeleton.’
It really was a human skeleton.
Seo Yi-jun said.
“Just as Mudman duplicated the characteristics of Mud Slime in the form of skills, so resistance duplicated in the form of immunity.”
“I think so too. Judging from the pebble-like thing on its face, it looks like it has a total of seven immune capabilities.”
“Then it seems like I got my sword immunity from the gremlin. Because the gremlin uses a sword.”
Seo Yi-jun and Yoo Hye-ryeong quickly gathered information this time too.
‘With 7 resistance abilities, it seems like Hunter Yoo Hye-ryeong from her previous life would have a hard time.’
Before obtaining [Land God-Pungbaek], Yoo Hye-ryeong was a pure swordsman.
There is no way to attack a Mudman who has gained immunity to sword attacks.
‘Maybe he lured the Mudman to another field to fill up another tolerance.’
This time there was no need for that.
“Fortunately, I have a variety of offensive means.”
Because Seo Yi-jun has a skeleton troop.
“Come out.”
Although there are no units yet equipped with weapons other than swords and scythes, there are other means of attack.
-Less than that~

-Clap clap clap.
-Come on!
The skeleton warlock, magic troopers, and beast troopers were all summoned.
Did you feel any sense of crisis about that number?
-Kyaahahahaha!
The mudman screamed.
Whether attacking or being attacked.
Mudman kept screaming.
But the scream just now was different from the roars or screams that had come before.
‘If we have to be specific, it’s a command.’
Mudman’s cry contained a clear message.
As if responding to the mudman’s shout.
-Kie! Kieeek!
-Keeeeeeet!
From a distance, the howling of a horde of gremlins could be heard.
Yoo Hye-ryeong frowned.
“It’s the boss monster’s howling.”
Howling.
A boss’s unique ability to gather and advance monsters under his command.
‘Did you eat the gremlin boss and get howling instead of corrosive fluid?’
It must have been because of Howling that Mudman led the Exodus.
E-class monster, Gremlin Warrior.
Not only Yoo Hye-ryeong, but even Seo Yi-jun wasn’t at the level where he would have a hard time when gremlins came rushing in.
However, when dealing with an unfamiliar enemy like Mudman, it is better to eliminate any distracting elements as much as possible.
“I am…….”
So, Yoo Hye-ryeong, who had no means to attack the Mudmen right away, volunteered to assist and tried to stop the gremlins.
“No. Hunter Yoo Hye-ryeong, please reserve your strength.”
Seo Yi-jun stopped her.
There was no need for Yoo Hye-ryeong to come forward.
-Less!
-Dalgrak!
The guards, accompanied by their assault troops, went out to intercept the gremlin horde.
“All right.”
Yoo Hye-ryeong nodded obediently upon seeing that sight.
“Those skeletons could easily take out dozens of gremlins.”
This was because I personally witnessed the skills of the guards and assault troops that attacked the Mudmen.
Wow!
Meanwhile, the black magic soldiers poured [black magic] at the mudmen, and the magic soldiers poured magic balls at them.
-Gewooooow!
A human face burst out of the mudman’s body, and the third and fourth pebbles turned black.
The beastmen clawed and bit the mudmen with their teeth.
-Gewooooow!
The fifth pebble turned black.
‘Teeth and claws are treated as a bundle. Can we consider them as wild weapons?’
It’s a shame that it’s all lumped together, but this leaves Mudman with two pebbles left.
Woof woof woof!
There, the dragon soldier mixed dragon piercing and breath and sprayed them.
‘oh.’
Both belong to [Dragon’s Power], but is it because the mechanism by which they manifest is completely different?
-Gewoooooooooo!
Mudman was able to shake off his fear with the sixth pebble, and gained immunity to breath with the final pebble.
-That, that’s sooooooo… … .
Finally, Mudman’s immune system was saturated.
-Kyaahahaha!
Mudman shouted again.
-Kihii… … .
Unlike before, the cries of the returning gremlin horde were utterly pitiful.
We’ve already dispatched additional black magic and magic troops, and just a little while ago, we even sent the dragon and beast troops to hunt gremlins.
“Come out.”
If he felt his men were being lost to the gremlin horde, he would immediately summon and replenish them.
[Title [Usurper] is activated.]
[Obtain an E-class essence.]
The achievement was passed on to Seo Yi-jun through [The Usurper].
‘then.’
Seo Yijun looked at Mudman.
‘It’s time to change the guy’s immunity pattern so that Hunter Yoo Hye-ryeong’s attacks can hit him.’
The skeleton corps has no means of attack left.
Sara-ra-rak… …, tta-ttuk!
Moreover, attacks using wires were already included in Mudman’s immunity.
‘also.’
The sea as expected.
‘It’s just normal magic power that has changed its form and doesn’t have any special power.’
Although there is a [Magic Control Technique], it is only a skill that increases the range and power when the magic power is refined.
Seo Yi-jun didn’t have any special skills for handling wires.
As a result, the wire was treated by the mudman like a magic ball thrown by a magician.
Thump!
Even if I carefully polished it, it was the same.
But it was not a meaningless act.
‘Oh, if I sharpen it this thinly, will it be treated like the breath of a dragonfly?’
Seo Yijun was checking whether the normal magic immunity or the refined magic immunity was reacting through the subtle reactions of the pebbles.
Swish.
Seo Yi-jun, who had finished checking the wire reaction, moved again.
-That’s it!
Avoid the mudman’s spewing icicles and flames, and dive into its embrace in one breath while splashing the caustic liquid over you.
Yoo Hye-ryeong, who had been waiting for her time, opened her eyes wide.
‘Those are the movements of a C-class hunter, and a necromancer at that?’
At the very least, it was a movement that only a B-class veteran warrior would show.
Considering that Seo Yijun is a C-class necromancer and does not have the mobility of a B-class veteran warrior… … .
‘The ability to predict enemy attacks is… … at the level of a Class A Hunter.’
This means that you are reading Mudman’s attacks at the same level as yourself.
Talk.
Seo Yi-jun’s hand touched Mudman’s shoulder.
Boom! Bam! Bam! Bam!
-What the heck?!
Mudman’s skeleton was breaking apart.
The result was that the skeleton destruction option of [Balanced Skeleton] was amplified by [Bone Strike].
Until now, Mudman had been hit several times and had developed immunity to the cobblestones.
Flash!
Unable to endure even 3 or 4 seconds, the pebble on his forehead that was immune to sword attacks flashed.
Thump!
Then, instead of the sensation of bone, a dull sensation was felt beyond Seo Yi-jun’s fingers.
‘…this.’
I didn’t know when Yoo Hye-ryeong and the Skeleton Troop’s attacks weren’t working.
It was Seo Yi-jun’s own attack, but he didn’t know it was a wire that he had guessed would not work.
‘I feel really dirty?’
I never knew it would feel so bad to have my bones turn into something blunt… … . * * *
Seo Yi-jun, who succeeded in changing Mudman’s immunity pattern, stepped back.
Seo Yi-jun and Yoo Hye-ryeong exchanged glances.
‘… … You endured such suffering.’
Yoo Hye-ryeong, seeing Seo Yi-jun frowning, gathered her resolve once again.
A hunter who came to the field despite being a C-class for some reason.
Just like large guilds hunt fields for image management.
It may also have been a choice he made early on to solidify his own brand.
‘It doesn’t matter.’
Even if that were the case, that would never be a factor that would lower the evaluation of the man named Seo Yi-jun.
fault.
Yoo Hye-ryeong pulled out three swords from her waist.
A situation where sufficient strength has been accumulated thanks to Seo Yi-jun’s consideration and instructions.
As the left arm moved, the tips of the three swords came together at one point, forming a cone.
-Growling!
Mudman threw a punch.
Yoo Hye-ryeong twisted her body to avoid the attack.
‘Hunter Seungjoo Park.’
There was no particular connection between Park Seung-joo and Yoo Hye-ryeong.
-Gewoooooooooo!
Since we belong to the same Haetae Guild headquarters, we often met.
I remember him as a person who was always full of laughter and energy.
‘I’m sorry. I’ll make sure to find out what happened to you.’
At the same time, he flapped his sleeves widely.
The pressure of the sleeve pushed the sword away.
Remember.
The Mudman’s torso was gently carved.
Heads, arms, legs and torsos were scattered in all directions.
however.
“?”
Kkuddudududuk.
Mud rose from the cut section, and the Mudman tried to come back together.
‘Regenerative power… …?’
Regeneration.
And it’s not just an ordinary regenerative power, it’s a regenerative power that’s on the level of trying to reattach a severed body part.
‘Mudmen don’t have this ability. It’s like the regenerative power of a troll… , ah.’
Something suddenly came to mind.
‘Yeah. Troll.’
Just a moment ago, Yoo Hye-ryeong injured her right arm while hunting trolls in a Class A field.
Just now, Mudman’s fist also grazed Yoo Hye-ryeong’s right arm.
The Mudman’s ability to use the abilities of the eaten target is implemented in the troll’s regenerative power.
Warm.
Then, one of the pebbles on his head began to flash.
‘Immunity to swordsmanship?’
The immunity pattern hadn’t changed yet, but she had blasted her three swords behind the mudman.
“… … !”
Yoo Hye-ryeong hesitated for a moment.
Then suddenly I noticed a black shadow rising beyond the Mudman.
Kwaaaaak!
The wires, swung like blades, instantly entangled each of Mudman’s fragments.
Knock… … !
Mudman’s regeneration was noticeably slowed by the pressure of the wire.
“At this level, it seems like both refined magic immunity and normal magic immunity will work.”
Immunity to magic balls and breath.
It was a wire drawn with exquisite purity magic in between.
Warm.
Mudman tried to learn wire immunity instead of sword immunity.
“It’s over.”
From the beginning, Seo Yi-jun’s target was not wire.
Tsk tsk tsk-!
A blue lightning flashed that had never been seen before in this battle.
