The Necromancer's Fourth Catastrophe

Chapter 151: Willing or Not


Mr. Zhou and Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching did not receive the second task prompt because they are dual-class players.

However, they both received the first task prompt.

Upon seeing this task prompt, Mr. Zhou became a bit uneasy.

Mr. Zhou looked at Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching beside him: "Mr. Qian, what do you think?"

Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching carefully reviewed the task on the game panel, then said somewhat uncertainly: "Maybe it has something to do with the number of players who have advanced their profession to a high tier?"

"When I advanced the Skeleton Warrior profession to high tier before, there was no task prompt at all."

"Later, when Iron Black Pot and Caged Parrot advanced their professions to high tier, it also didn't trigger."

"But their acquisition of the skin made all players rush to advance their profession, and now there are probably a few more players who've reached the high tier."

"It seems that must be the case."

Mr. Zhou shook his head: "This is really annoying, I originally planned to buy a house, purchase some currency from other players to advance my profession to high tier, but didn't expect I couldn't buy anything at all."

"The players in the Underground City now are all seasoned, very hard to fool."

"And with this task, they've surely put all their attention on advancing their profession, making it even harder to get money from them."

Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching patted Mr. Zhou's shoulder: "Xiao Zhou, haven't you already got some clues on your new magic? Once you figure it out, you'll have the money."

Mr. Zhou shook his head upon hearing this: "Forget it, researching new magic might take some time before making progress, dragging it out any longer is just wasting time. I've decided to go mining first."

"Anyway, I'm only a few steps away from becoming a high-tier Skeleton Warrior, I'm in need of money, and the shortfall isn't too much. Mining is a good option."

"Mr. Qian, when do you plan to undertake this task?"

Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching glanced into the distance: "I'm planning to head to the Royal Palace now to discuss with other players who've advanced to high-tier Skeleton Warrior to see if we can collaborate."

Mr. Zhou, hearing this, didn't waste any more words: "Alright, I'll go do some mining first. Once I advance my profession to high tier, let's meet again."

Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching nodded, then walked towards the entrance of the passage.

When Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching arrived at the Royal Palace entrance, he found it quite lively.

Iron Black Pot, Caged Parrot, Wangzai Little Buns, Sea Flip, Chubby Orange Cat, the five of them were discussing heatedly.

Seeing Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching walking over, the five of them immediately turned around.

Wangzai Little Buns waved at Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching: "Mr. Qian, we were just waiting for you."

Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching walked up to the five of them, looking at their unique appearances, he just felt a bit bitter inside.

After all, he's the only skeleton, who can he complain to?

However, he quickly adjusted his mindset, nodded at Wangzai Little Buns: "Xiao Mantou, your skin looks great, quite lucky you are. By the way, you said you were waiting for me here?"

Wangzai Little Buns immediately nodded: "Yep, based on our understanding, only the six of us have reached the high tier, so after discussing, we plan to act together."

"I wonder if you'd be willing, Mr. Qian?"

Upon hearing this, Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching immediately nodded: "Sure, why wouldn't I be? I'm not a lone wolf, naturally I like to cooperate."

Sea Flip grinned: "As long as you agree, we've previously consulted Mage Fang Ka, this exploration task requires at least six people to act together, which is likely the number of high-tier profession players triggering this task."

"Since we have enough people, Mr. Qian, you go apply with Mage Fang Ka, and we'll find Tina to take us to the exit, then we'll set off."

The reason Fang Ka set a minimum of six people was mainly to get these players to act together.

He can review any player's perspective at any time through the Soul Contract, if they act together, he doesn't have to switch views.

Moreover, these six players of Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching are quite unique right now, working together can greatly enhance their safety and exploration capabilities.

Also, having players restrain each other can prevent a lot of silly behavior.

Mr. Qian nodded, then applied with Fang Ka to receive the exploration task, and then followed Tina towards the Royal Palace.

Watching these players following Tina into the Royal Palace through the Dark Eye Magic Array Carrier, Fang Ka turned off the Dark Eye Magic Array Carrier, then frowned.

Currently, there's a question about the Brahma Wall Magic Array in the Underground City.

The Brahma Wall Magic Array's main body is located within the Royal Palace, and Fang Ka has the means to control the Brahma Wall Magic Array's main body.

But the problem is that the means to control the Magic Array's main body must be used by a Mage.

Currently, Fang Ka only has two indigenous Mages under him, one is Xia Lin, and the other is Sonam.

These two Mages are no ordinary Mages, they are both high-tier Mages, Fang Ka keeps them on his island for a significant reason.

Moreover, leaving Sonam alone in the Underground City is not reliable, what if he uses his familiarity with the Underground City and escapes?

Feeding him alchemy poison to control him is absurd because Sonam himself is an expert in the alchemy potion domain.

As for the magic used to contract to restrict normal creature souls, it has long been lost, and there's currently no solution.

If Noel is sent to oversee, it's not reliable either, because Noel is still underage, and his tail can't move around the Underground City.

So, Sonam certainly can't be placed in the Underground City, and Xia Lin, who is also underage, has daily affairs of the Merfolk Race on the island to take care of, it's not appropriate to send her over either.

Therefore, Fang Ka is currently lacking Mages, he needs a Mage to control the Underground City's Magic Array's main body.

In this way, in the future, when Fang Ka arranges for Noel to deliver things to the Underground City or bring things back from the Underground City, he won't have to take Sonam with him every time to open the gate.

After pondering carefully for a while, he suddenly thought of a group of people.

That would be the group of slaves rescued from the Underground City.

It's uncertain whether any of these slaves have magic talent.

Anyway, those goblins definitely won't test or train them.

Those goblins only oppress and abuse these slaves.

Thinking of this, Fang Ka immediately called over the two merfolk nearby.
