Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge

Each spear was like a giant skewer, threading the stone monsters together as if they were skewered barbecue.

The dense, blood-red damage numbers flew from the tops of the stone monster’s heads, accompanied by a crisp "crackling" sound as they shattered into gravel in the passage all at once.

Instant kill!

The kind where even their Spirits were dispersed.

Given Zi Liyuan’s absurd attribute enhancements, top-level skills, equipment boosts, and the mutated, enhanced Spear of Death, the lethality was so terrifying that it all but guaranteed the instant kill of the unprotected Lord Boss. Let alone the hero-level Boss stone monsters.

A dozen Spears of Death cleared nearly half of the stone monsters in the back in one sweep before their power was depleted.

Following closely beside Zi Liyuan were Dragon Two, Shen Yurou, and Dailisi, who had yet to take action.

The cave passage was narrow. With Zhu Wu and two others plus Lao Tie and the Spider Queen leading the charge, they had already pushed forward over ten meters.

Zi Liyuan alone had almost cleared the rear.

As for the stone monsters still within the walls, they used the power of the earth element to ram the thick ice and needed more time to break free.

"Let’s go!"

Ying Xueji called out, controlling the spreading power of ice without harming her allies, and extended it along the passage, sealing the surrounding walls with ice.

With Lao Tie and the others leading the way, their pace was not fast enough to run, but it quickened considerably.

Luckily, the passage was not very long, and in about ten minutes, they reached the end.

At the exit, a red glow radiated, and unbearable waves of heat poured continuously into the passage.

"Ahead lies the interior of the volcano where magma flows. The power of ice is weak here, and once we leave the passage, I won’t be able to seal the walls with ice. Be careful not to be ambushed by the stone monsters from the walls."

Ying Xueji’s complexion was unusually pale due to the overwhelming power of fire here, which made it extremely difficult for her to use her ice powers.

The temperature around them had risen above a hundred degrees, and she needed to constantly invoke the power of frost to reinforce the ice walls; otherwise, they would have melted into water vapor long ago.

The others naturally heard Ying Xueji’s words, and they reformed their formation once again.

Lao Tie and the Spider Queen took the front, acting as spearheads, with Zhu Wu’s trio closely behind them, smashing the stone chunks into pieces to prevent them from recovering.

After all, these were earth elemental creatures that could use the power of earth elements around them to regenerate as long as their cores and Spirits were intact.

The rest followed closely behind Zhu Wu and his group, leaving Zi Liyuan to occasionally cast single-target magic into the passage behind them, instantly killing any pursuers.

Once they exited the tunnel and entered the true interior of the volcano, their field of vision instantly opened up.

This was a vast hollow, with a narrow spiraling path etched into the surrounding rock walls, which descended into a magma lake below.

The enormous Magma Lake glowed red-hot, with the fiery magma churning endlessly. Giant bubbles emerged and exploded, sending splashes of magma in all directions.

The intense heat and high temperature made even those with the constitution of professionals feel as if they were being scorched by flames all over their body.

"Where’s the seal?"

Li Fengwen peered into the pit and asked about the Magma Lake below.

"Down there, within the Magma Lake."

Ying Xueji casually answered and came to the edge to assess the situation below.

From their current position to the Magma Lake below, the vertical distance was probably about a hundred meters.

"Come on, what were these ancestors thinking? Why place a seal inside a Magma Lake?"

"To ensure the seal’s safety, of course. Even a Fourth Order Peak powerhouse would need special items to enter the Magma Lake, and they’d be good to last for about fifteen minutes at most."

Liu Shengnan gave Li Fengwen a disdainful glance, then frowned slightly.

"Looks like a big one’s coming."

"Indeed, a very big one."

Zi Liyuan’s expression was grave as he looked up at the volcanic rock wall diagonally above him, where an incredibly vast life source had appeared.

"The boss of these Stone Monsters has arrived," he said. "Perfect, after we take it down, these little minions won’t bother us anymore."

Zhu Wu, carrying a huge ax, also looked up in the same direction.

At this moment, a massive silhouette had emerged on the wall of the volcano, almost as if the wall itself had come to life, slowly stepping forward.

"An Epic Boss, huh? This is its lair, so be careful not to get knocked into the Magma Lake by this thing."

Watching the twenty-meter-tall Stone Giant stepping out of the wall, the faces of the group also turned solemn.

Fighting this creature, everyone present was confident they could take it on solo.

But below was a Magma Lake, and if one were not careful, being knocked into it would be no laughing matter.

"Dailisi, give this gentleman a bath, would you?"

"Of course, Master~."

With a cooing reply that had a silky smoothness to it, Dailisi gracefully made her way forward and with a graceful leap, she jumped out.

"Roar~!"

In an instant, a surge of darkness enveloped the space as the massive true form of the Black Dragon hovered within the huge volcanic cavern. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Then, with a single flap of her wings, she nearly instantaneously flew in front of the Stone Giant, her colossal claws seizing its limbs, initiating a spine-tingling free-fall.

The mere hundred meters of height was left behind in the blink of an eye.

With a "boom," the dragon and the Stone Giant plunged into the Magma Lake, indulging in a scorching magma bath.

The next moment, Black Dragon Sister surged into the sky, a slight shiver of her body shaking off all the magma that had clung to her.

The resistances of an Epic Black Dragon made her almost immune to magic elements’ harm, and together with the strong protective power of her dragon scales, Dailisi could briefly relish swimming in the Magma Lake without any harm.

However, Dailisi didn’t soar into the sky but hovered about ten meters above the Magma Lake, quietly watching the Stone Giant, who had been thrown in and was fully enjoying his bath.

This creature, having resided within Mount Fuji Volcano for years, had long since adapted to the environment and even possessed the power of fire elements in its body.

As such, while the temperature of the magma was high, it did little damage to him.

However, with the vast and deep Magma Lake offering no foothold, the giant couldn’t escape for a while.

"Let’s go down."

With Lao Tie and the Spider Queen leading the way, the Stone Monsters that leaped out from the volcanic rock walls along the path were no match for them.

They were quickly sliced into several sections as soon as they appeared before the two, only to be smashed to pieces by the trio led by Zhu Wu that followed.

"The number of these Stone Monsters is truly overwhelming; there must be tens of thousands, and the Magma Lake below is not peaceful, either."

Zi Liyuan sighed as he effortlessly collected the various items that had fallen.

"Where there’s a Magma Lake, it’s easy for fire elemental creatures to emerge. There are quite a few big fellows waiting for us below."

Ying Xueji took out a bottle of silver-white potion exuding an extreme chill and nonchalantly tossed it into the Magma Lake below.

As the bottle struck the Magma Lake, a tremendous surge of cold air blasted into the sky upon contact, instantly creating a frigid storm.

Before this freezing storm could wreak havoc and solidify the lake’s magma, an angry pillar of magma shot into the sky.

In the roaring explosion, the terrifying power contained within the magma column shattered the freezing storm in an instant, its high temperature evaporating the frigid air.

"Tsk tsk, you’ve stirred up a hornet’s nest there."

The entire Magma Lake boiled over as the magma column erupted, revealing the heads of countless fire elemental creatures.

Hundreds of fiery beings directed their attention toward Ying Xueji, their eyes filled with a violent aura.
