Only I Am a Necromancer - Chapter 502 - Age After Ending (16)

Yes. It was not that Z avoided contacting the Helper. Z was pushed out by the Necromancer, then he was forced to play second fiddle to the Necromancer.

Just as Li Wei, who was ranked No. 1 in China’s 2nd server, came to the Necromancer at the request of the Helper, and played a decisive role in helping him out, Z was also asked to play a role similar to her’s.

So Z declined the Helper’s demands. Then the Helper threatened Z by giving him all kinds of penalties.

‘I felt it then.’

Z’s eyes inside the purple mask glowed.

‘The Helper, they are not gods, they make the wrong choice, and even more, they are stuck into a wrong way of thinking…’

– Caution! The ‘Fire of Punishment’ will be activated in the area to wipe out all ‘living creatures’. (Remaining time: 00:00:03)

“They are nothing but the voices of the devil.”

– Fire of Punishment has been completed.

“The empire built with the power of the devil must be duly destroyed.”

The red ball that had been swinging on his hand came to a stop slowly as if it stabilized. But its heat was stronger than ever.

Clang-

The ground on which Z was standing was split. Even though he produced the ball of fire, he could not hold it any longer.

Z aimed the ‘Fire of Punishment’ at Asadal. Then, as if it was tilting a huge bowl to pour out its contents at once, it melted from the top of the red ball and began to spread toward Asadal.

Even Valkyrie had no other choice but to back away from the heat of the Fire of Punishment, so no one could stop him.

The intense flames spread widely and poured in, filling the space more and more rapidly and wildly, like a tide reaching the ground by tidal force.

At that moment the world tree reacted.

Wooooooooooooo-

As it was confronting the rushing Fire of Punishment, the world tree began to radiate light.

“What the heck is that?”

Blue energy burst out of the world tree in a hemispherical shape. It was a tremendous power.

Slam!

Z was swept away by the energy, and thrown backward, crashing into the outer wall of the building before hitting the ground in darkness.

“…”

Z could not figure out the ongoing situation.

Just before he was engulfed by the fire, he saw a wave bursting out of the world tree.

Blue energy radiated out from it in a hemispherical shape with great speed, sweeping everywhere before being sucked into the body of every player in Asadal. And then it spread all over the world.

At that moment Sungwoo was standing at the roots of the world tree.

– You have successfully cleared the myth quest <Origin of Race (Dragon)>.

* You receive a reward. (You’re evolving into a new race)

‘Done.’

Finally, he cleared the lengthy mythic quest.

– Your body evolves into a different form.

* You may go through some pain.

“Ooops…”

Sungwoo groaned when he felt his whole body twist.

Like the message warned, he felt a lot of pain all over his body. He felt as if new bones and flesh were filled between his bones and skin, becoming hard and tough.

‘Actually, my body is changing like that.’

A total changeover was going on inside his body.

It was as if something unique to a dragon was layered on his body’s unique particle structure as a human being.

Fortunately, his changing process didn’t take long.

– You have been reborn as a ‘Dragon Race.’

* All stats will increase. (+10)

* Magic resistance increases. (+50%)

* Physical defense increases. (+50%)

* Fear resistance increases. (+100%)

* Fire immunity increases. (+150%)

* Body regeneration increases. (+100%)

* Health recovery increases. (+100%)

Finally, he has been reborn as a Dragon Race member.

It wasn’t just Sungwoo whose body was changed. About 300,000 players belonging to the World Tree camp went through the same change that Sungwoo did. And those players who would join the World Tree camp would have to go through the same process.

“I wonder if I will be alright.”

He still felt it uncomfortable to break away from being human to turn into something else. But he felt relieved that he was not much different from a human being on the surface. He was worried that he might be changed to something like a bizarre reptile, but it seemed that since the designers of the game were humans, they took some basic aesthetic factors of a human being into account.

But he felt his skin was much tougher than before, and his eyes also felt strange.

– According to your will, your ‘vision method’ is changed. (Current way: heat sensing)

It seemed that his eye structure itself changed.

‘Man, I think it will take some time for me to get used to it.’

Not only his vision but also his senses improved several times. He could even feel the humidity around him, but it was hard to describe the sense of humidity in a human language. In other words, he felt pretty strange about it.

So it was certain that his body changed.

But that’s not all.

– You can acquire a new ‘Race Skill’ if you improve ‘Race Resonance’.

[Skill Information]

– Name: Descendants of the Dragon

– Rank: Myth

– Category: Exclusive race skills

– Consumption: None

The ‘Dragon people’ who are born with dragon blood can express their ‘latent abilities,’ depending on the level of development of the whole race (Race Resonance). There is no skill that you can use because the current Race Resonance is low (level 0).

‘Gosh, there is one more thing I have to care about.’

Sungwoo had so many skills that he could hardly remember all of them.

Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-

At that moment his eyes, which were set to a heat sensor, noticed something.

Red heat was coming toward him from a distance. It looked like a sandstorm in Dubai.

“Oh, I see!”

It was the massacre skill ‘Fire of Punishment’ that was doomed to attack Asadal. Pushed back by the ‘wave of evolution’ emitted by the world tree, it started to come toward him belatedly.

Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu-

But Sungwoo was not afraid of that heat at all. After he became a dragon race, his fire resistance increased by a whopping 150%. This value was equivalent to the point at which the ‘Salamander’s Aura’ was activated.

‘If it has been issued to everyone, it’s no problem at all.’

What was the effect of Salamander’s Aura?

– When ‘Fire Immunity’ exceeds a certain level (150%), ‘Salamander’s Aura’ is granted.

* ‘Burn’ effect is applied to all direct attacks.

* If you are hit by a ‘fire attack’, your health will be restored. (+1%)

This was the effect of feeling the enemy’s fire attack not as an attack, but rather as a buff.

Kugugugugugugu-

The Fire of Punishment reached its target.

But the people of the World Tree camp living in Asadal would simply take it as something like a hot wind, or something like a sauna that would wipe away their sweat, then refresh themselves.

“I don’t know who he is, but he must be pretty disappointed.”

As Sungwoo expected, the enemy’s fatal attack didn’t inflict any damage to Asadal at all because nothing happened.

The Fire of Punishment failed in vain.

But Z did not know the cause of that failure. But he instinctively felt the Necromancer must have played some dirty trick this time, too.

“After all, can’t I nullify his advantage that he has monopolized to make his brilliant achievements until now?”

Still, Z did not give up. He has failed many times so far.

“Whew…”

Instead of giving up, he preserved his energy and kept trying.

As a result, he came close to achieving his goal without any major setbacks.
