Chapter 10: Mummy Upgrade (Treasure Troves)

“Level 3, Elite 3-star field protectors?”

“And there were as many as 25 of them!”

Richard’s pupils constricted.

It was not something that normal soldiers in the resource points could compare.

Although the mummy was also an Elite 3-star, its level lagged behind the opponent. The mummies were still lacking a small team.

If they were to forcefully charge, it would be a little risky.

However, Richard was not willing to retreat just like that.

He gazed at the mummy’s stats: [Body of Death], [Corpse Bandage], [Sharp Claw Tearing], and [Sand Transformation]…

The mummy’s skills did not have much advantage against the desert wolf. The desert wolf was too agile.

Only the Sand Transformation skill that it obtained was different.

It meant immunity to 99% physical damage. This skill allowed the mummy to occupy a strong position from its weak position.

Moreover, it was easier for the enemy to get infected with the plague after the Sand Transformation.

When they were fighting the gnolls earlier, this combination had a powerful effect.

Richard took a look. At this time, all the mummies’ Sand Transformation skills had already recovered.

“Although the Sand Transformation skill is a bug, if we were to face the opponents head-on, the desert wolves are too agile. We might not be able to make much progress…

“Is there any way to restrict the desert wolves’ movements? No, there’s no need to restrict their movements. They just need to be slowed down.

“The mummy’s plague can reduce their attributes by 20%. It’s completely possible to do that… Then, is there any way to infect the desert wolves with the plague before the battle?”

While looking at the desert wolves resting on the sand, Richard suddenly had a thought.

He turned his head to look at the mummy closest to him.

“Immediately use the Sand Transformation to melt into the desert…”

The commanded mummy had a faint yellow sand glow on his body. Then, the mummy’s entire body immediately turned into a blurry image formed by countless grains of sand, and the bandage also turned dark yellow.

Under Richard’s gaze, the ground began to sag. The mummy’s body that had turned into sand gradually merged into the yellow sand.

Eventually, its entire body disappeared without a trace, leaving only an inconspicuous mark on the ground.

“Hahaha, that’s surely good!”

Richard was in a great mood.

He looked at the desert wild wolves while still lying under the shuttle tree…

…The plan worked.

In the afternoon, the hot weather made the desert wolves immensely lazy, and they were not in a hurry to hunt.

After dark, it was time for Richard’s troop to attack.

While they were lying down in a daze, the desert wolves suddenly felt a rustling sound coming from the ground.

It seemed that something was underground.

However, most did not pay much attention to it and continued to lie down.

Only a few stood up slightly and lowered their heads to sniff with their wet noses.

However, the things on the ground were blocked by the yellow sand. So, they could not smell anything.

The movement continued for a while, and the desert wolves lost their vigilance and laid back lazily on the ground…

‘Whoosh!’

At this moment, the ground suddenly shook, and countless yellow sand rose.

The more than ten desert wolves lying on the ground only felt a pain in their abdomen, and their physical strength rapidly declined.

Blood splattered on the sand and was all over the ground. After the sand absorbed the blood, it condensed into a ball.

“Roar!”

The desert wolves let out an extremely painful roar from their throats.

It bounced up from the ground like a spring.

Of the 25 desert wolves, 12 had sharp claw marks on their abdomen. Only two were fast enough to escape.

Only then did the desert wolves see what had attacked them.

The posture of the mummy crawling up from the ground made the desert wolves almost go crazy.

They immediately launched a fierce attack on the mummy that had crawled up from the ground.

Those severely injured did not retreat at all.

However, to their surprise, their sharp claws that could tear apart the bison just shortly penetrated when they hit this undead creature.

‘Rustling…’

It was as if they had pierced through the sand.

The fierce launched attacks by the 25 desert wolves at the same time did not cause any damage to the mummy.

On the contrary, as long as the desert wolves pierced through a mummy’s body, their bodies would turn blue after a few breaths.

The mummy’s curse could reduce all the enemy’s attributes by 20%!

The aura of the desert wolves immediately weakened.

If the mummy is normal, even if it could kill these desert wolves, the mummy would suffer severe losses.

Unfortunately, their enemy was the mummy whom Richard gave the ability to turn into sand.

After turning into sand, the mummy was an unkillable existence.

No matter how the desert wolves tore at it, the mummy’s body would always recover quickly.

It was like using a knife to cut through quicksand, but pulling out the knife would leave no mark.

Instead, after the mummy got up from the ground, it faced a group of cursed enemies and started a crazed killing mode.

It didn’t know fear, didn’t know pain, and it only knew to launch an attack.

Trading injuries for injuries with a wave of its sharp claws, the mummy constantly achieved results.

After the mummy came out from the yellow sand, three or four desert wolves surrounded it and attacked it.

In a few rounds, it could kill a desert wolf.

Although the desert wolf fought back frantically, it was helpless against a group of enemies who had activated their invincibility skill.

The battle ended before the mummy’s Sand Transformation skill duration ended.

The last desert wolf was drowned by more than ten mummies. The body of the desert wolf was almost covered in scars, and fresh blood was flowing out…

[Ding~ The army you have led has annihilated a group of desert wolves and obtained victory in a small-scale battle. You have obtained 50 experience points.]

[Level: 2 (50/1000)]

The Elite-level troops each provided 2 experience points. The rewards were not bad.

However, the experience gained from leveling up to level 3 was 10 times more than before. The progress of leveling up slowed down instantly.

However, what made Richard happy was still to come.

[Ding~ Bandaged mummies have experienced a lot of battles. Their levels have increased.]

After the system notification sounded, the aura of the 14 bandage mummies suddenly increased by a huge amount. At the same time, the scars left behind had also returned to normal.

Even the Sand Transformation skill that he had just used had refreshed.

Richard was in a great mood.

This was a bloody good win.

And the main gains were not just these.

He looked at the corpses of the desert wolves lying on the ground.

Weren’t the calves of these desert wolves good meat?

For Twilight City, which lacked food, this was a resource that made people drool.

However, the problem was that the corpses infected with the plague were deadly.

Richard thought for a moment and turned at the mummy beside him. His eyes were filled with anticipation.

“Can you remove the plague from the corpses of the wild wolves?”

The mummy in front of him was stunned. It seemed like it had never done this before.

After hesitating for a moment, the mummy slowly walked forward and pressed its hand to the wound on the wild wolf’s corpse.

A moment later, the blue curse on the desert wolf’s skin seemed to come alive and began to move towards the direction where the mummy was pressing on the wound.

After more than ten breaths, the blue light completely disappeared. Clearly, the wild wolf’s corpse had returned to normal…

Richard’s eyes were filled with surprise.

Mummies were treasure troves!

Blood money, blood money!
