Chapter 75 - 75: 075 Necromancer Legacy
Pink City, City Lord’s Mansion.
As Dean McKenzie opened those two boxes, the system prompted a refresh.
[You’ve received the [Legacy of the Necromancer] (Book Knowledge version)!]
With the system prompt in place, Dean McKenzie flipped through the two boxes.
After flipping through them, Dean McKenzie figured out what the [Legacy of the Necromancer] in the book knowledge version was.
All the contents of the two boxes were books related to the necromancer’s legacy.
Dean McKenzie counted them, there were 87 in total.
These 87 books formed a complete set.
From the introduction of the necromancer system to step-by-step becoming a necromancer, the skills explanation was very detailed.
In the meantime, Dean McKenzie also saw the detailed attributes of the legacy.
Name: Necromancer Legacy (Book Knowledge version)
Explanation: Once mastered by reading, it can greatly enhance your legacy.
It might even trigger the legacy of an advanced profession [Necromancer]
Just from this introduction, one could see the importance of these 87 books.
Dean immediately started reading, but he was shocked at what he found.
He couldn’t understand it!
He didn’t recognize the characters on it.
They weren’t characters from the real world. Dean McKenzie could understand real-world characters, which were similar to traditional Chinese characters and easy for him to grasp.
But the characters in these books had a hint of the Western system, which Dean McKenzie couldn’t understand at all.
That was a bit embarrassing.
Fortunately, Dean McKenzie wasn’t afraid of embarrassment.
“Can anyone help me? I can’t read these characters!”
Dean McKenzie straightforwardly expressed his request to the maid pig.
The maid pig frowned, “Aren’t you a human mage? How come you can’t read human language?”
“There are hundreds of human languages, I can’t possibly know them all, can I? I don’t recognize this one, can you find someone to teach me?”
“This is troublesome, not many people know this language, I’ll ask the princess for help!”
Then, the maid pig left and didn’t return until half an hour later.
When she returned, she held a ring in her hand, which she gave to Dean McKenzie.
“Here, this is from the princess!”
Dean McKenzie took the ring and was immediately taken aback.
Name: Scholar’s Wind (Ring)
Quality: Silver
Level: Level 21
Usage conditions: None
Effect 1: Comes with [Human Language Proficiency] (Level 4)
Effect 2: After wearing the ring, learning efficiency increases by fifty percent
Dean received a silver ring.
Regardless of whether he could use it or not, the princess was genuinely generous, giving away a silver-quality ring just like that.
With the ring on, the situation changed when Dean opened the books again.
The text, which originally looked like gibberish, suddenly became clear to Dean McKenzie. Finally, he could understand it.
However, although he could read it, Dean McKenzie still couldn’t understand much of the content in the books.
Rather than trying to understand everything on his first read-through, Dean decided to skim through all 87 volumes first.
Very quickly, Dean McKenzie finished reading all the books.
As soon as he finished, the system prompt immediately refreshed.
[You’ve read the [Legacy of the Necromancer], and your template legacy has now increased to nineteen percent!]
It increased by two percentage points at once.
However, the biggest gains for Dean McKenzie weren’t these two percentage points.
In fact, while reading, in addition to this system prompt, Dean McKenzie received a few more system prompts.
[You’ve read a detailed analysis of the skills [Bone Fang] [Bone Shield] [Summon Skeleton] [Slow Curse] [Bone Prison]. Your understanding of these skills has deepened, and the proficiency of these skills has been enhanced to varying degrees!]
While Dean McKenzie read the books relevant to these skills, the knowledge about these skills would automatically pop up in his mind and combine with the knowledge from the books.
This was incredibly beneficial for Dean. Not only did he gain a deeper understanding of how to use the skills, but the proficiency of these skills also increased to varying degrees. The skill [Slow Curse] had the most significant improvement and leveled up from level 1 to level 2.
This gave Dean McKenzie a further understanding of the value of the [Legacy of Necromancy].
“With the help of these books, I might be able to level up both [Bone Fang] and [Bone Shield] to level 6 within three months. By then, I would be able to…………………. ”
He suddenly went silent halfway through his sentence.
That’s because he remembered that even if he managed to level up [Bone Fang] and [Bone Shield] to level 6 within three months, it wouldn’t be a great help.
In the end, he was really poor. He only had five or six gold coins in his pocket. This little money wouldn’t be enough for anything!
“I’m broke!”
Dean McKenzie couldn’t resist groaning in poverty.
At this moment, a soft voice said, “Mr. McKenzie, do you need money?”
Dean McKenzie turned his head just to see that Princess Pig, Elisa, and Maid Pig were sitting next to him.
Surprisingly, the Princess Pig with her huge body, sitting there, gave off a serene and elegant aura.
As Dean McKenzie turned to look, Princess Pig took out a pink bag from her bosom and gave it to Dean McKenzie.
“I don’t have much with me, only these. Tell me how much you need, and if it’s not enough, I’ll have Chloe deliver more to you.”
Dean McKenzie looked at the pink bag handed over by her, there was no hesitation, and he took it straight away.
It’s a joke, she was giving him money, why would he hesitate?
He opened it up to check the pink bag, and there were hundreds of gold coins in it.
That money would be enough for him to level up two or three skills.
However, having money seemed to be of no use, as Dean McKenzie did not have the essences to use.
When faced with this problem, Dean McKenzie shamelessly asked the princess for help: “Thank you. Besides, I also need to personally kill some elite template or even excellent template enemies. Can you arrange it for me?”
As soon as Dean McKenzie put forward this request, before Elisa could react, Maid Pig became angry: “You human, don’t you think your demands are a bit excessive?
What do you think the princess is?
How can you shamelessly make these requests to the princess?
You are simply…”
“Chloe!”
Elisa interrupted the maid pig, and then looked at Dean McKenzie affectionately: “It’s okay, as long as it’s Mr. McKenzie, it’s okay.
I’d be glad to do these things for Mr. McKenzie.”
If you have any other needs, you can tell me, and I’ll try my best to fulfill them!”
Elisa’s affectionate look was indeed a bit intimidating.
For a moment, Dean McKenzie felt as though she was head-over-heals in love with him.
If it weren’t for her robust body and pig head, if it weren’t for the previous farce, Dean McKenzie might have been fooled by her.
“For now, I don’t have any other needs, you can just help me with this one!”
In any case, no matter what the princess was planning to do, Dean McKenzie decided to eat the sugar-coated bullets she offered..
