Chapter 282: Song Junlangs Experiment

Chapter 282: Song Junlang’s Experiment

There were tables for reading beside every bookshelf. Xiao Lin took out the book and immediately had the carpet land. Even though the flying carpet was a great experience, the book in his hand was a lot more interesting

That introduction book detailed the origin and progress of necromancy. Necromancy was considered an evil art on Planet Norma. Other than a small number of races, most of the natives never wanted to meet necromancers, causing the branch of magic to be understudied.

Even though they were both branches of magic, necromancy and elemental magic basically had nothing in common. Necromancy did not require elemental affinity, nor did it need any resonance to magic. For necromancy, the most important thing was death energy.

Simply put, it was the energy left behind after dying. Every living being produced it when they died, and death happened in every corner constantly on Planet Norma. That was why necromancers believed that death energy was something ever-present and unavoidable; the myth that necromancy could only be used in ominous places like graves was unfounded.

The book was probably written by someone from Earth. There were various illustrations and personal opinions in the book, such as how the natives regarded necromancy as evil because of the reverence the natives had for the dead, just like how death is treated by certain cultures on Earth.

Just as Xiao Lin expected, summoning was the best part of necromancy. Compared to solidifying death energy to attack, necromancers prefered to use the undead to fight for them.

Compared to the nature summoning of the elves, necromancy’s summons had a lot of advantages, such as being impervious to fatigue and pain, and being completely submissive to the summoner.

Necromancy’s summonings were also split into a few types. Breathing life into rotting corpses was the lowest level of necromancy. Those corpses were usually not very strong and slow to boot, just like wooden dolls or machines. The corpses rarely affected combat unless there were terrifying numbers.

However, that was all for later on. Xiao Lin quickly flicked through it and arrived on how to learn the magic. It was quite easy to learn necromancy, only requiring a Basic Meditation of LV4 to start feeling death energy while meditating. Since death energy was controlled purely with mental strength, it led to a much faster increase than other magics.

Of course, necromancers had their own system of mediation: necromantic meditation. Even if normal meditation was fine, it was not as good as necromantic meditation for sensing death energy.

After writing ‘necromantic meditation’ on the paper slip, the carpet quickly located the book. The thick book was quite heavy, its pages a faint yellow, signifying how old the book was, but the condition of the book was still quite good, showing that not many people had read it.

That was expected. He had heard in New Washington that, other than a few special cases, most academies did not offer necromancy as a course, so students had to learn it themselves if they were interested.

Even if necromancy did not invoke any negative opinions among the colonists, they had noticed that necromancy would often invoke fear or hatred from the natives, causing needless bloodshed.

For instance, the elves’ hatred for the undead was carved into their bones. That was why, even if there were no official rules on it in New Washington, it was absolutely prohibited to use necromancy in front of the elves there.

Dawn Academy did not have that worry. Even though the orcs did not like the undead either, the academy never had a good relationship with the orcs anyway. The war from years ago was not easily forgotten, meaning there was no need to avoid anything they hated.

Picking up ‘Necromantic Meditation’, Xiao Lin left the library. The borrowing process was extremely simple, only needing to note it down on the library card. Gu Fantian had reminded him that every book had a magical trace on it, and not returning them on time would lead to trouble.

As for the book that Xiao Lin had chosen, Gu Fantian and Zhang Tingting voiced quite a bit of shock. It was not because of necromancy itself, but they just felt like Xiao Lin was trying to learn too many things at once.

The truth was Xiao Lin was not that sure he would go any deeper into necromancy, but he still thanked the two of them for their concern.

Xiao Lin had actually started to realize that he had quite a hodgepodge of skills, but it was undeniable that it was the best way to increase his attributes in the beginning.

Thanks to Miracle’s attribute-changing ability, increasing his attributes meant a lot more for Xiao Lin than anyone else. Every increase in attribute points caused his skill-activation to be better. The best proof was when he knocked Captain Yu unconscious during the monthly examination.

He did not bring his phone to the library since that toy did not have a silent function and he did not want to disturb anyone else. That was why Xiao Lin was surprised to see that he had received a few messages while he was gone, and they were all from Song Junlang.

Xiao Lin got up excitedly. Song Junlang contacting him at this time could only be related to increasing his attributes. He put away the book and immediately headed to Song Junlang’s department.

After twenty minutes, Xiao Lin stood in front of Song Junlang’s usual office, looking inside with an uncertain look, swallowing before he said hesitantly, “Uhm, is it really okay for me to come inside?”

The inside of the room looked very peculiar. There were dozens of transparent test tubes and flasks on the table, with various different-colored liquids inside. He did not know what the liquids were, but one red liquid definitely had the familiar scent of blood!

Song Junlang did not seem to have time for Xiao Lin at that moment. In his hand was a tiny silver knife, cutting into a frog that had wings. After a few seconds, he retrieved what looked like organs from that thing before throwing it into the flask behind him. He then poured a few strange smelling things inside, and after the smoke settled, there was only a dense liquid left inside.

Okay, Xiao Lin finally understood what those different-colored liquids were.
