Farming in a Parallel World and Becoming a God-Chapter 2137 - 977: Slaughter Blessing_3

"This is interesting!" Gaven immediately became interested; this is clearly necromancy! 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Upon reflection, this is not surprising.

Bal, along with Bane and Milkau, is known as one of the Three Gods of Death. They not only control divine positions closely related to death, but once divided the divine offices of death and the deceased among themselves. Bal particularly likes using undead armies to facilitate more murders.

After Khan Yamen absorbed Bal’s old followers, he immediately activated this ability, organizing a massive vanguard army of the undead to assist in attacking Tavelan City.

Gaven now merely inherited this ability in due course.

This isn’t Slaughter Devouring Evolution, but a conventional Slaughter Divine Power blessing, transforming them into his skeleton soldier subordinates.

Alone and isolated here, Gaven felt no sense of security, and could entirely use this ability to build an undead army for himself.

Gaven has no significant prejudice or fear of the undead, as most undead lack a soul and consciousness, acting merely by instinct. The ones truly committing evil are the few intelligent ones, and sometimes not even undead but intelligent creatures using undead as tools.

This view further developed after acquiring Weizemay Manor.

After all, a capability notorious in the hands of the Undead Goddess of Revenge became a boon for Gaven’s rapid development.

Since they have become his subordinates, they deserve Gaven’s attention, and with Dragon Sight ability, he thoroughly examined these Slaughter Skeleton Soldiers, observing the changes before and after.

Life Force: 16 (Life Dice: 3D8)

Attributes: Strength 13, Dexterity 14, Constitution -, Intelligence 6, Perception 8, Charisma 5

Undead Trait: Skeletons are immune to effects that affect the mind, poison, sleep, paralysis, stun, and diseases. Effects causing instant death through critical hits, bludgeoning, attribute damage, attribute absorption, energy absorption or massive damage do not affect it; it doesn’t require air, food, or sleep.

Immunity (Special Ability) — Skeletons are immune to cold due to lacking flesh or internal organs; slashing and piercing weapons only do half damage to it.

Slaughter Blessing (Special Ability) — Blessed by Slaughter Divine Power, your Strength and Dexterity each gain an enhancement of two points, and intelligence is activated.

All your attacks carry three points of slaughter damage, which is true damage and converts into Slaughter Power. If life force is not full, it turns into healing power to restore itself; if life force is full, it turns into profession experience, usable once per turn.

Strong, really strong.

Is this still the skeleton soldier known for being cannon fodder?

Compared to before transformation, it’s not the same species at all.

This Slaughter Blessing not only combines attack and healing but also accelerates self-growth, truly embodying Slaughter Power.

Before this, a warrior with the same life dice could challenge four skeleton soldiers alone.

Now, this skeleton can compete with warriors of the same life dice without being at a disadvantage.

"Kill them!" Gaven issued the attack command to the Slaughter Skeleton Soldier.

Click!

The Slaughter Skeleton Soldier responded, lowered its body, and charged out with bone blade and shield.

Bang!

The skeleton soldier at the forefront was directly knocked to the ground.

The long bone blade was enveloped in a blood-red glow; with a crunch, it pierced through the chest of another skeleton soldier, directly passing through the soul fire within.

The blood-red glow on the bone blade wrapped around briefly; the soul fire of that skeleton soldier shattered, and its entire body collapsed, reverting back to a pile of lifeless bones.

One hit kill!

Gaven knew the Slaughter Skeleton Soldier’s strength had greatly increased, not expecting it to be so fierce, though the one it instantly killed was merely the weakest level-one skeleton soldier.

After the skeleton soldier was slain, its soul fire split into two; one part was absorbed by the Slaughter Skeleton Soldier, and another turned into strands of Slaughter Power, converging into Gaven’s Slaughter Left Arm.

Once the Slaughter Skeleton Soldier’s body was infused with Slaughter Power, it naturally became his believer, his soldier, fighting naturally for him.

The Slaughter Skeleton Soldier’s actions stirred up a hornet’s nest; surrounding skeleton soldiers were stirred and rushed towards the Slaughter Skeleton Soldier.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

A series of sounds echoed from skeletal clashing.

The Slaughter Skeleton Soldier promptly raised its bone shield, retracting behind it, bracing for the attack from its companions.

Though besieged and looking hopelessly battered, it did not suffer significant harm.

Once the bone blade in its hand was again enveloped by blood-red light, the bone shield was aggressively thrust outward, once more launching an attack, stabbing precisely into the chest of a skeleton soldier.

Though this time it didn’t destroy the soul fire outright, it dimmed thoroughly, nearing death.

The Slaughter Skeleton Soldier pushed past its advantage, thrusting the bone shield directly into the flickering soul fire, extinguishing it.

Immediately, the Slaughter Skeleton Soldier withdrew behind the bone shield again, slyly waiting for the recharge of the Slaughter Blessing.

This is another point of difference between Slaughter Skeleton Soldiers and ordinary skeleton soldiers; it has activated intelligence which, although marginal, beneath Gnolls and Goblins, suffices for executing simple tactics.

After all, skeleton soldiers have soul resonance inherently, retaining some leftover combat instincts and habitual actions.

For instance, a skeleton who was a miner in life would continuously hold a pickaxe or weapon, even a bare mechanical hand, knocking against rock walls.

A skeleton formed from a guard corpse might randomly post at a gate or patrol along a street.

A dragon skeleton instinctively occupies a pile of treasure and lies atop it to sleep, though it doesn’t need sleep.

And a skeleton horse would chew on nearby vegetation, though without swallowing, it falls out, sometimes even chewing air.

Unable to clap with one hand.

Despite its strength, the Slaughter Skeleton Soldier couldn’t change the flaw of its lowly origin and was quickly overwhelmed by a swarm of approaching skeleton soldiers, unable to raise its head, let alone retaliate.
