Chapter 442: The Dark Life Contract and the Second Tauren
Translator: Lonelytree
At night.
Matthew placed the cured meat-no, the dark warrior-that had been oiled for ten days on the ground.
The oil application segment had ended.
The five dark warriors in front of him were all full of colour and shiny.
Matthew decided to strike while the iron was hot and complete the third step.
Unbinding ceremony.
The so-called unbinding ritual was to awaken the remaining spirituality on the Dark Warrior’s corpse through incantations and rituals. During this process, Matthew would also call for the wandering soul to enter the Dark Warrior’s body.
At this stage of the ritual, the space he was in would temporarily overlap with the Underworld.
Matthew had to use his mental power to project the ancient divine artefact, the Furnace of Casted Soul, that he had repeatedly memorized in his mind.
This was to attract the unconscious souls into the dark warrior’s body.
This would further strengthen the power of the dark warriors.
When the Dark Knight’s body contained enough spirituality, he would complete the final binding and sealing through the form of incantations.
After successful bindings, a large amount of spirituality would be active in the dark warrior’s body.
They would kill each other and fight for control of the bodies.
The consciousness that survived in the end would become the dominant consciousness of the dark warrior.
The other failed souls would become the source of power for the dark warriors. It was also because the birth process of the dark warriors was filled with killing and pain.
This kind of undead would also want to self-harm day and night after taking shape.
This self-harming instinct could comfort his heart.
Matthew had made a lot of preparations for tonight’s ceremony.
He first found an empty space in the cemetery and carefully constructed all the materials, rituals, and media needed for the unbinding ritual.
Secondly, he was prepared for battle.
Soldier, Renesme, and even Peggy were on standby.
His imaginary enemy was the messenger from the Underworld.
The process of creating dark warriors would slightly violate the authority of the Underworld. Although no one wanted the souls scattered in the world, sometimes, these small officials in the Underworld could not bear to see the necromancers pick up things they did not want.
Usually.
The Underworld Messenger’s level would not exceed level 16.
Matthew’s formation should be dealt with calmly.
Other than that.
He was still holding Ursul’s Reprimand in his hand.
This treasure was also a great threat to spirits.
It could be used just in case.
After all the preparations were done.
Matthew began a long chant.
The Dark Knight’s unbinding was also a type of ritual magic, but due to the exploration of the senior mages, this ritual was very concrete.
Matthew chose a set of unbinding rituals with the lowest risk from the Alliance’s Spell Library.
He had to admit that the quality of spells that had been tested by the Alliance was indeed high.
Even though it was Matthew’s first time, the chant was very smooth.
In the blink of an eye.
Accompanied by the ringing of the bell.
The corpses of the five dark warriors began to emit a faint green light at the same time.
This green light was even more dazzling after being covered with the strong colour potion that he had prepared in advance.
This step would make it easier for the necromancer to judge the situation of the gathering of the spirit souls.
When a dark warrior glowed green.
It was almost time to wrap things up.
The wind from the underground cave blew across the cemetery.
The bell rang.
Matthew was nervous.
He was constantly paying attention to the changes in his surroundings.
As time passed.
The Soul Casted Furnace that he had projected also began to slowly dissipate.
Half an hour later.
Even the last Dark Warrior was green and shiny.
Matthew suddenly began to chant a sealing spell.
Another three minutes passed.
The magic array under his feet slowly dissipated.
All the media and materials were also sublimated into powder.
Unbinding successful!
Matthew looked at the five black warriors full of spirituality, his eyes filled with surprise.
“Did I actually succeed just like that? No one from the Underworld came to disturb us?”
Matthew found it hard to believe.
However, this kind of smooth sailing was exactly what he had hoped for.
Not long after.
He settled the dark warriors down.
When the final spirituality was determined, he could use the incantation ritual to strengthen their spirituality and ability.
The final recognition was just a matter of course.
This was because, during the entire production process of the Dark Warrior, Matthew had already established an inseparable relationship with them. The cost of making a Dark Warrior was indeed too high. This included not only the cost of time and materials but also the cost of emotions and energy.
Taking away the necromancer’s summoned creature was probably worse than killing him.
Thinking of this.
Matthew could not help but consider inciting other people’s undead to defect.
He muttered to himself and opened the Tauren Domain.
Before this.
He had already accumulated enough elements from Rheagar.
Now, he could open it for the second time!
[Hint: You are in the process of opening up the Tauren Territory. Please choose the direction of exploration]
Horizontal development (Obtaining more elements, getting involved in more intersecting domains)
Vertical development (select a certain element to explore deeper)]
Matthew thought for a moment. In a small domain like the Tauren, it was better to take the small but refined route.
Blind expansion was not desirable.
If it expanded to other messy domains, it would lose its purity.
Thus, he chose to explore vertically and plunder the elements.
[Creation successful. As the creator of the Tauren Territory, you will obtain two of the following three abilities:
Strengthened Instigation (Your innate spellcasting ability Instigation has been strengthened, the effect has been increased to- –
When you successfully instigate an undying to defect, if there are other undying of the same type around him, you will randomly instigate another one to defect.
This enhancement cannot be stacked with Consecutive Instigation.)
Hunting Mark (You can mark a certain type of creature as your prey. For the next 72 hours, as long as this type of creature is within 300 meters of you, it will appear in your field of vision and be highlighted)
Snatch (When you steal or rob, you will receive additional attribute authentication. Every time you steal or rob successfully, you will receive a large amount of XP).”
If I continue to dig deeper into the Plunder Domain, will I really develop towards the evil side?
‘ Moreover, plundering and hunting seem to have some overlapping elements.” Matthew thought thoughtfully.
If he chose two out of the three abilities above, he would undoubtedly rule out Snatch.
Strengthened Instigation was not bad.
Hunting Mark was quite useful.
Snatch was okay, but he was not someone who liked to steal from others.
He had completed his domain creation.
Matthew got up and stretched his muscles.
The cemetery was very lively at night.
Recently, not only did the skeleton soldiers dance the hip twist every day, but this trend was gradually spreading to the zombies.
Matthew passed by a zombie carrying a tombstone.
The latter actually bent down and twisted his hips twice.
Matthew was speechless.
He was also very curious about the medium through which the trend among
the undead spread.
While patrolling the cemetery.
Matthew also noticed that many of the zombies’ faces were swollen.
Without a doubt, this was Renesme’s handiwork.
Just as he was about to go back and reprimand her.
Matthew passed by the Ghost District.
When the spirit wolves saw their master passing by, they immediately pounced over enthusiastically and circled back and forth like huskies.
At this moment.
Elite Specter Ali floated over.
He said respectfully to Matthew,
“Good evening, my lord. It just so happens that I have something to discuss with you. Speaking of which, I’ve been living in the cemetery for so many days, and I can feel your kindness every day. My clansmen and I have nothing to repay you with, so we can only share some of our discoveries with you. If you can use them, that would be the best.”
Matthew thought to himself, This guy finally couldn’t hold it in anymore.
It was probably because the skeletons and zombies had tombstones, and he could not bear to eat and drink for free every day. He was finally willing to offer something.
He asked calmly,
“What discoveries?”
Ali said,
” When we were wandering, we passed by many underground cities. On the way, I found an open-air sulfur mine and a very hidden silver mine.
“The sulfur mine is not far from the cemetery.”
