Chapter 20 Lord Monster
"Now my strength is 9.5. After killing 4 more monsters that I haven't killed before, I can break through to the second tier."
Thinking this, Zhang Changsheng opened his attributes to check them.

"Such luxurious attributes; his physique is almost catching up with his strength."
After reviewing his attributes, Zhang Changsheng nodded in satisfaction.
"White Dragon, let's go."
After waving to the white dragon, Zhang Changsheng walked towards the Cave of the Dead, steel sword in hand.
Because the Fog Eagle was scouting ahead, Zhang Changsheng wasn't afraid of being attacked by the undead.
Click! Click!
Zhang Changsheng had advanced less than a few hundred meters when several undead rose from the ground, brandishing long swords and charging towards him.
These undead are just ordinary undead warriors, not very strong.
"Fireball!"
Flames erupted from Zhang Changsheng's body, instantly blasting all the undead into pieces.
"So hard to kill!"
After shaking his head helplessly, Zhang Changsheng continued forward. With his fireball spell, the undead blocking his way were no match for him, whether they were ordinary undead warriors and archers or first-tier undead swordsmen and shieldmen.
When Zhang Changsheng stopped at a place that resembled a bone bridge, he learned from the mist eagle that there was a very strange undead on the bone bridge.
The bones of this undead were scattered all over the ground, only visible from the air. From Zhang Changsheng's current perspective, he could see nothing but bones scattered on the ground.
Because the bone bridge is made of bone, any loose bones on it are not noticeable.
Zhang Changsheng began to examine the information about this special undead.
Undead Giant
Class: Tier 1 Warrior
Power: 8
Agility: 5
Physical condition: 8
Intelligence: 1
Perception: 1
Charisma: 1
Skills: Mastery of hand and foot (Tier 0), Charge (Tier 1), Scatter Camouflage (Tier 1), Stomp (Tier 1)
"Is it a scattered disguise?"
"That must be the skill that allows this guy to disguise himself as a pile of bones."
After a slight shift in Zhang Changsheng's gaze, he first clapped his hands together, unleashing the Great Strength Technique.
Increase your strength by one point, reaching 10 points.
I don't know if it's because the Giant Strength Technique is only at level one that he can't break through to a strength level of 10 or higher, even though his strength is already 9.5.
Then, Zhang Changsheng used his lightness technique to pounce on the undead giant, leaving a trail of afterimages as his speed was astonishing.
When Zhang Changsheng arrived in front of the undead giant, the undead giant finally reacted, and the bones scattered on the ground began to gather together, with countless bones piecing together in the air.
"Fireball!"
Flames rose from Zhang Changsheng's body and crashed into the bones that were being pieced together in mid-air.
"Do you think you're filming a movie, transforming without anyone interrupting?"
Amid Zhang Changsheng's complaints, a terrifying explosion occurred.
boom!
Amidst the flames and explosions, the undead giant's body was instantly blasted to pieces.
Only a few bones, which had not yet been pieced together, remained.
Click! Click!
These bones came together again, piecing themselves together into a bizarre, incongruous skeletal monster—neither human nor beast, ugly and grotesque.
"roar!"
The undead giant lunged at Zhang Changsheng.
"Fireball!"
Zhang Changsheng used the fireball spell again, colliding with the undead giant amidst flames.
boom!
The undead giant was no match for Zhang Changsheng's strength and was instantly knocked away, turning into ashes in the explosion of flames.
You killed the undead giant!
[The slaughter and plundering have begun!]
You have plundered the Tier 1 spell "Bone Assemble" from the bloodline of the undead giant.
[Under the effect of this spell! Your Strength +0.125! Your Constitution +0.125! Your Agility +0.125!]
[Warning! Killing the undead giant again will not grant you spells!]
"Bone assembly technique?"
After frowning slightly, Zhang Changsheng began to recall the information about the spell.
"I remember this spell is a necromancer's spell, used to piece bones back together, it's a pretty useless spell."
"Hopefully, it will become somewhat useful once it gets into my hands."
With this in mind, Zhang Changsheng began to communicate with the spell model in his mind.
"Bone-jointing surgery!"
With a thought, Zhang Changsheng's body instantly grew much taller, then shrank again, and even his facial features changed.
"Contortionist techniques combined with disguise?"
Zhang Changsheng's lips twitched slightly. He hadn't expected that the necromancer's bone assembly technique would turn out like this in his hands.
"But it's alright, not exactly useless."
"If I kill three more monsters now, I can advance to the second tier. I hope there will be new monsters later."
After Zhang Changsheng removed the bone-reassembly technique, he continued forward with Bai Long.
Because the Fog Eagle had scouted ahead, the entire Undead Cave was practically transparent to him.
Thanks to the Fog Eagle's reconnaissance, Zhang Changsheng easily dealt with the monsters behind him.
No matter where these undead monsters hide, Zhang Changsheng will find them and blow them up.
"Um!"
Zhang Changsheng suddenly stopped, his eyes narrowing slightly.
He stopped because the fog eagle had flown to the deepest part.
At the deepest part of the Cave of the Dead, there was a dilapidated palace, which looked like a royal palace.
On the throne sat a golden-armored skeleton wearing a crown.
Apart from this golden-armored skeleton, there were no other monsters in the palace.
"I remember the intelligence said that the boss monster of the Undead Cave is a monster wearing golden armor and a crown. This should be the one."
Thinking of this, Zhang Changsheng opened the information of the golden-armored skeleton and began to examine it.
Lord of the Dead (projection)
Class: Tier 1 Sword Saint
Lord Monster (All Attributes +1)
Strength: 5+1
Agility: 9+1
Physical fitness: 5+1
Intelligence: 1+1
Perception: 1+1
Charisma: 1+1
Skills: White Eagle Swordsmanship (Tier 1), White Eagle Step (Tier 1)
"10 points of agility is equivalent to a second-tier assassin. No wonder many people can't deal with boss monsters of the same tier. Adding one point to all attributes is indeed overpowered."
"Fortunately, I'm also cheating."
Zhang Changsheng strode towards the deepest part of the Cave of the Dead, without the slightest fear.
After all, although the King of the Dead is fast, his power has not reached the second tier, so his defense cannot be broken.
The moment Zhang Changsheng stepped into the palace, the King of the Dead, who was sitting on the throne, instantly raised his head, and golden ghost fire rose in his eyes.
"roar!"
After the towering undead king let out a terrifying roar, his figure flashed, leaving a trail of golden afterimages.
"Shield!"
Seeing the Undead King charging towards him, Zhang Changsheng activated his shield spell.
hum!
Zhang Changsheng's skin turned silvery, radiating a metallic sheen.
Ding!
The King of the Dead's longsword pierced Zhang Changsheng's chest with a clanging sound.
Although the longsword pierced through the armor, it did not penetrate Zhang Changsheng's skin; this is the power of skill.
brush!brush!
The King of the Dead, like a white eagle in the sky, was terrifyingly fast, relentlessly battling Zhang Changsheng, thrusting his sword again and again. Beautiful and dangerous.
Unfortunately, Zhang Changsheng's constitution reached 10 points under the effect of the shield spell, making it impossible for the King of the Undead to break through his defenses.
"Fireball!"
Zhang Changsheng moved swiftly, charging towards the King of the Dead.
brush!
Seeing Zhang Changsheng charging towards him, the King of the Undead darted away like a startled rabbit.
boom!
A terrifying explosion of flames occurred, but unfortunately, the King of the Dead retreated too quickly, and the explosion didn't hit him at all.
"He runs really fast. If we want to take him down, we have to slow him down."
Thinking of this, Zhang Changsheng slashed with his steel sword, and a wind blade rose out of thin air, spinning as it rushed toward the King of the Dead.
At the same time, Zhang Changsheng used his lightness technique to rush towards the King of the Dead.
With the Lightness Technique, Zhang Changsheng's agility reached 9.5. Although he was not as fast as the King of the Dead, he was only slightly slower.
The King of the Undead moved with ease, dodging the incoming wind blades with effortless grace.
"Hey!"
A cry of an eagle rang out, and the King of the Dead raised his sword and pointed it diagonally to the sky. A huge white eagle phantom rose from the sword and swooped down on Zhang Changsheng.
boom!
The white eagle swooped down on Zhang Changsheng, trying to carry him into the sky.
Unfortunately, the white eagle's strength was far inferior to Zhang Changsheng's, and it couldn't move Zhang Changsheng.
"Lightning Bolt!"
Golden lightning bolts rose from Zhang Changsheng's body, striking the King of the Dead like a golden lightning bolt.
Compared to Lightness Spell, Lightning Spell is much slower.
brush!
The King of the Undead retreated again, trying to keep his distance from Zhang Changsheng.
"Hey!"
The moment the King of the Dead retreated, a cry rang out, and a huge golden eagle appeared behind it.
The terrifying claws instantly gripped the King of the Dead; it was Zhang Changsheng's Giant Horned Golden Eagle, summoned using the Summoning Contract Space Technique.
The Summoning Contract Space Spell allows you to summon your battle pet to any location within 100 meters of yourself. For high-level professionals, this distance is practically negligible.
However, it is still very useful at lower levels, like now, its sudden appearance can catch the opponent off guard.
Although the giant golden eagle does not possess magic, its strength is as high as 8 points, and its brute force is terrifying.
With a powerful tug of its claws, the King of the Undead was instantly torn into several pieces. Although he did not die due to the special nature of the undead, it would only take a little time for him to reassemble his body.
Unfortunately, Zhang Changsheng didn't give him that chance.
The giant golden eagle disappeared, and the instant it was summoned back by Zhang Changsheng, Zhang Changsheng arrived, riding on golden lightning.
boom!
Zhang Changsheng stepped on the foot bone of the King of the Dead, and golden lightning rose up, engulfing the surrounding bones.
The bones were shattered by the lightning. Although the lightning spell was not as powerful as the fireball spell and some bones were missed, it was enough. The remaining bones were simply not enough for the Undead King to piece them back together.
"Resist the ring of fire!"
The ring on Zhang Changsheng's hand lit up with a red light, and then he stomped his right foot.
boom!
A semi-transparent, terrifying shockwave spread outwards from Zhang Changsheng.
Wherever the shockwave passed, everything, from rocks to the bones of the Undead King, was instantly crushed.
The remaining bones of the King of the Dead were all crushed by the shockwave.
The moment the King of the Undead died, beams of light rose from the spot where he had died, transforming into various pieces of equipment that scattered across the ground.
You have slain the King of the Dead!
[The slaughter and plundering have begun!]
You have plundered the first-tier spell "Summoning the White Eagle" from the bloodline of the King of the Dead.
[Under the effect of this spell! Your Strength +0.125! Your Constitution +0.125! Your Agility +0.125!]
[Warning! Killing the Undead King again will not grant you spells!]
"White Eagle Summoning Spell?"
"Judging from the name, it should be a summoning spell, but my spell is abnormal, so I hope it will be powerful."
After shaking his head slightly, Zhang Changsheng began to communicate with the spell model in his mind to check the spell information he had just acquired.
brush!
With a thought, Zhang Changsheng thrust his steel sword forward, and a terrifying whooshing sound rang out.
Then, an eagle-shaped sword aura appeared and shot towards the distant rocks.
boom!
The eagle-shaped sword energy landed and instantly shattered the stone into pieces. In terms of power, it was similar to the Flying Stone Technique.
"Again!"
Zhang Changsheng thrust again, and as soon as the White Eagle Sword Qi rose, the white eagle seemed to come alive. Under Zhang Changsheng's control, it circled in the air, then turned and crashed into a rock on the side.
"I see. The White Eagle Sword Qi can move under my control, just like a remote-controlled airplane."
Zhang Changsheng instantly understood how to use the White Eagle Summoning Technique and its advantages.
"Not bad, not bad, a very powerful spell, like an upgraded version of the Flying Stone spell."
After nodding in satisfaction, Zhang Changsheng looked at the extraordinary equipment on the ground that was emitting various colors of light.
"Next, let's check the equipment. I didn't expect to get so many drops. My luck is pretty good."
Zhang Changsheng looked at the five pieces of equipment on the ground, and his smile widened.
When a boss monster dies, it will drop one to six pieces of equipment, but most people get two or three pieces, and very few people get four or five pieces.
Zhang Changsheng arrived in front of the first piece of equipment, a set of golden armor that looked very much like the golden armor worn by the King of the Dead; they were practically identical in appearance.
"property!"
With a thought, Zhang Changsheng opened the information on the golden armor to check it.
The King's Armor [Fake]
Rank: 1
Quality: Perfect
Perfect effect: Agility +1 point
Effect 1: Strength -1
Effect 2: Agility +1
Description: This is a very lightweight suit of armor, but its drawback is obvious: it will reduce your strength.
"Adding two points to agility and subtracting one point to strength is perfect for assassin classes, but unfortunately it's not very useful for me now, as I'm about to advance to the second tier."
"However, it should fetch a good price; I estimate it can be exchanged for spatial equipment."
Thinking of this, Zhang Changsheng felt much better.
Next, Zhang Changsheng looked at the second piece of equipment, which was a silver ring with a white eagle on it.
The Ring of the White Eagle [Fake]
Rank: 1
Quality: Perfect
Perfect effect: Agility +1 point
Effect 1: Agility +1
Effect 2: Constitution -1
Description: Wearing it will make you faster, but it will make your body more vulnerable.
