Chapter 66: Crossdressing and Succubus
Translator: Lonelytree
Looking up, he saw an endless plain.
Countless craters were scattered across the ground.
The sky is greyish brown
The same was true of the horizon.
A huge full moon hung between heaven and earth.
It was like the undying soul fire.
The silence was the eternal theme here.
Even the wind was silent.
Endless whirlwinds came from an unknown place and blew to the next unknown place.
The undead creatures that were swept up by the whirlwind either choked and fell or regained their vitality.
Death and metamorphosis played out different stories in the same negative energy whirlwind.
Matthew walked alone on this quiet land.
It was different from the lively and noisy experience in the oak tree domain.
Everything here was so quiet.
It was very similar to the concept of this place.
Death.
A skeleton walked towards him.
Almost none of its bones were intact, and its soul fire was pitifully weak. It seemed that as long as a gust of wind blew, this newborn skeleton soldier would lose its last chance to “live” again.
However, it was very tenacious.
Matthew saw with his own eyes that it was blown into a bottomless pit by the negative energy whirlwind.
According to his guess, this skeleton would definitely fall apart.
And that indeed happened.
Matthew noticed that it stayed in the hole for a long time.
It was so long that Matthew began to doubt whether time had meaning in this domain.
At a certain moment.
He saw the skeleton climb out of the hole again.
The earlier tornado had destroyed its last remaining thigh bone.
It managed to recover a little before it struggled to get up from the ground.
Matthew noticed.
The soul fire in its eyes burned even brighter.
“It turns out that undead creatures also have such a strong will to live.” Matthew was slightly moved.
This skeleton clearly did not have much intelligence. It did not even know where it should go.
However, from the moment it ignited its soul fire, it possessed the instinct to survive.
Perhaps in the next moment, it would be completely extinguished by another whirlwind.
But before that.
It would continue to move forward.
To that unknown place…A place where the fire of life could bloom.
After stopping for a moment.
Matthew continued forward.
Along the way.
He brushed past all kinds of undead creatures. Zombies, Ghosts, Banshees, Vampires, Ghouls, Headless Horseman, Death Horseman, Dark Knight, Abomination, Tomb Guard, Mummy…
Some of them were strong, and some were weak.
However, they were all heading towards the unknown. Here.
None of the undead creatures knew what was ahead.
Very few people could explain the purpose of constant moving.
But moving forward was the only purpose.
Death is eternal silence, and the undead are existences that persist in advancing in eternal silence. They may not be actual living creatures, but they are just like living creatures, fighting against death tirelessly.
“They were destined to be unable to escape the barrier of death, but they could no longer be simply regarded as the vassals of death.
“This is the ‘Undead’.”
Matthew came to the end of the horizon with this conclusion.
He stood in front of the eternal full moon.
A wind blew from above.
“So the negative energy wind is blowing down from the moon?”
He curiously looked at the celestial body that was close at hand but far away on the horizon.
In the next second.
The scene in front of him shattered like a mirror!
The view shook slightly.
Matthew’s consciousness returned to his living room.
[Based on the accumulation of summoning undead creatures and the exploration of negative energy planes, you have successfully entered the sub-domain of death, Undying!]
As a reward for stepping into the domain, you can choose one of the following three abilities:
Undead Body (Your body can instantly transform into the shell of an undead creature. During this period, you will obtain the immunity and other characteristics of the undead creature; In the state of “Undead Body,” you will have the opportunity to gain more understanding of the Undying domain. Lasts for 60 seconds once a day.
Negative Energy Control (You will gain the opportunity to control negative energy. After choosing this ability, you will have the opportunity to obtain some negative energy spells)
New Summon (You will receive a random Summoned Undead that is not lower than Tier 3)
It was a difficult choice.
Matthew frowned slightly.
Unlike the Oak Domain and the Temperance Domain, he really wanted the three abilities given by the Undying Domain!
As for the Undead Body, it was a life-saving skill and had the chance to increase the exploration progress of the Undying Domain.
‘ Negative Energy Control ” was the ability that necromancers dreamed of. With this ability, casting negative energy-related spells would be twice as effective.
After all, the two main skills of necromancers were: Summoning undead creatures and negative energy spells.
As for the third option,” New Summon,” it was less tempting.
Matthew actually did not lack undead followers, but it would be perfect if he could summon a Headless Horseman or a Dark Knight. This would make up for his lack of strong followers in the melee.
Although Peggy was also very fierce, Matthew was not willing to risk her life…
or death.
He hesitated.
Matthew gritted his teeth and chose the Undead Body.
This was also out of consideration for the unity of knowledge and action.
He didn’t want to miss any life-saving skill, not to mention that this ability could increase the progress of the exploration of the undying domain. Perhaps it could lead to a virtuous cycle of progression….
