Necromancer: Divine-Level Summoning

Chapter 29: Abyss Snake!

Unlike the previous battles, many of the enemies that Kedan faced this time were Rank 2 or even Rank 3 demons. Only a few of them were of the lowest Rank 1.

But because of the Caged Trap that Kedan used as a free meal, more than 30 Rank 3 of the demons had been killed by Keaton’s ghouls and skeleton soldiers, leaving only 10 or so Rank 3s scattered around.

Although most of the Rank 3 demons had been killed, there were still hundreds of Rank 2 and Rank 1 demons.

Under the enhancement of the Centaur Lady’s Berserk spell, the four Ghouls were like ferocious tigers that had walked into a flock of sheep, killing the demons until the heavens cried and the earth shook, not even leaving a single piece of of their flesh behind.

However, there was a time limit to the Berserk spell. It could not be applied continuously on the ghouls themselves.

Seeing that the Ghouls were getting surrounded, the deer girl suddenly pushed the mana in her body to release another four Berserk spells.

Keaton immediately took out the Mana Recovery Potion from his Backpack and handed it to the Centaur Lady.

After drinking the Restoration potion, the Centaur Lady’s mana quickly rose and returned to her peak state.

Keaton let out a long sigh. Before this, he had thought that he wouldn’t need to use any of his restoration potions, but in the end, he was still forced to use this backup plan.

“You don’t need to treasure your mana, just release your buffs. I have enough potions here.”

After the last mission at the school’s Dueling Arena, Kedan had taken 10 bottles of Mana Recovery Potions from the system. After receiving this mission, his system had given him another 10 bottles of Mana Recovery Potions.

At this moment, he no longer treasured these potions. He only wanted to win this battle and obtain his System Shop points.

Soon, with the support of the Centaur Lady’s Berserk spell, Keaton’s Skeleton Soldiers and Ghouls quickly wiped out all the demons present.

At the same time, Keaton also heard the system notifications.

[Ding! Congratulations to host for obtaining x1 Rank 3 soul fragment.]

[Ding! Congratulations to host for obtaining x1 Rank 2 soul fragment.]

…

“System, I want to exchange the fragments for Shop Points.”

Looking at the thousands of soul fragments in the system backpack, Keaton called out in his mind.

He now had around 50 Rank 3 soul fragments, over 700 Rank 2 soul fragments, and more than 300 Rank 1 soul fragments.

Based on the system’s calculations, a Rank 3 soul fragment could be exchanged for 100 system points, a Rank 2 soul fragment exchanged for one system point, and 100 Rank 1 soul fragments for one system point.

After completing the exchange, Keaton now possessed an additional 5,703 System Shop Points.

This was the first time that Keaton had obtained so many System Shop points. While he had obtained a massive number of points, the battle had consumed a total of seven bottles of Magic Energy Recovery Potion in exchange.

After some thought, Keaton decided to activate a new summoning template to summon a more powerful creature.

“System, unlock the Abyss Snake!”

[Ding! Abyss Snake summoning template unlocked. System points consumed: 3,000.]

“Summon the Abyss Snake!”

[Ding! Abyss Snake has been successfully exchanged, System points consumed: 3,000.]

During the previous exchange, Keaton had 300 system points remaining.

Today, the remaining 300 system points just happened to satisfy the Abyss Snake’s summoning requirements.

As soon as he summoned the Abyss Snake, Keaton quickly took out the Contract Stone and forcefully signed the contract with it.

He could finally relax and check out the information about the Abyss Snake.

The Abyss Snake gently lowered its noble head and prostrated on the ground, waiting for Keaton to climb onto its head.

Keaton did not stand on ceremony. He lifted his leg and stepped onto the head of the Abyss Snake. He then recalled the Centaur Lady back into the alternate dimension.

“Target location, 9 o’clock direction, 50 kilometers away, let’s go!”

The reason why Keaton came out to surround this group of deviant ghosts today was to challenge a Level 4 Lord of the Demons.

A few days ago, Keaton had stumbled across the lair of an otherworldly demon.

Not only were there a large number of Rank 2 and 3 demons, but there was also a Rank 4 Demon Lord.

With his combat power then, it would be akin to a child facing an adult if he had gone to challenge the Rank 4 Demon Lord.

Therefore, he aimed at another group of demons, with the aim of using the points obtained from the group to exchange for a powerful summoned creature.

Now that he had unlocked the Abyss Snake’s template and summoned it, Keaton had more confidence in this venture of this. He wanted to take this chance to annihilate the lair of demons and use them to strengthen himself.

For Keaton, his strongest combat power came from the summoning system.

Thus, he did not need to worry that he could not withstand the pressure of his summons.

Regardless of the summoned creature’s rank, once it was summoned by him, he only needed to use the contract stone to forcefully sign a contract, and the summoned creature would become his servant.

As for his Necromancy, under his deliberate choice it had turned into a very powerful support tool. Its purpose was to increase the combat capability of his summons.

Currently, he had a Rank 4 Dark Lord tier creature Abyss Snake, eight Skeleton Soldiers, four Ghouls, and a powerful support which was the Centaur Lady.

Such powerful combat strength was sufficient to sweep through the lair. The only thing to worry about was the Demon Lord.

Very quickly, Keatonn arrived at the location with his army.

This was a valley. Pitch-black river water flowed out of this valley, and the source of the river water’s color was the lair of the demons.
