Chapter 3 - Chapter Three: The Skeleton Warrior from the Garbage Heap

Suddenly, a student shouted, "Look, there's something in the dark clouds."

Everyone looked up.

Points of light began to rise from within the dark clouds.

The lights floated in the air, rising and falling.

Besides the lights, there seemed to be something else.

Moreover, crackling friction sounds came from the clouds, making everyone's teeth tingle.

Finally, a sharp-eyed student saw what was in the clouds and was so frightened that he fell to the ground.

"It's skeletons, the dark clouds are full of skeletons."

Following his words, the scene within the clouds fully revealed itself.

Thousands of skeletons densely packed together, the lights were actually the soul fires burning within their skulls.

Each skeleton glowed with a ghastly white light, looking ferocious and terrifying.

Although everyone knew it was just an anomaly, many students still retreated in fear.

One of the soul fires descended from the sky and landed on Lin.

Then all the anomalies disappeared instantly, and everything returned to normal.

[Unique Hidden Profession: Necromancer]

Not a rare profession.

But a hidden profession.

And a unique hidden profession at that.

This means that this profession is the only one of its kind in the entire world.

Unless Lin died, there would not be a second person with the same profession.

Hidden professions are even rarer than rare professions, and even less common than legendary professions.

It's unclear how powerful it is, but it's definitely rare.

Lin's Necromancer profession is the only one in the world.

"Lin is so amazing, he got a hidden profession, and it's a unique hidden profession."

"How could the silent one be so lucky, could there be a mistake with the formation?"

"A hidden profession isn't necessarily powerful, there have been people in history whose hidden professions weren't that great."

"Right, right, hidden professions are just rare, not necessarily powerful."

"But that anomaly was so scary, and his profession is Necromancer, does that mean he'll always have to deal with the dead?"

"He doesn't talk much anyway, dealing with the dead is perfect for him, no need to talk then."

After fully awakening to his profession, Lin stepped down from the formation.

A unique hidden profession excited him, but nothing of it showed on his face.

Unmoved by joy or anger, the shock and excitement were kept inside; there was no need to show it on his face.

"Wait a moment," Zhang Qian suddenly spoke up as Lin was passing by.

Lin turned around and bowed to Zhang Qian, "Senior, do you have any instructions?"

He wasn't a man of few words, just not overly talkative.

He wouldn't miss out on necessary courtesies.

Zhang Qian asked, "Your profession is a hidden one, which I've never seen before. Can you demonstrate a skill?"

Faced with Zhang Qian's request, Lin didn't refuse.

"Please wait a moment, senior."

Having just completed his job transition, he wasn't fully familiar with his abilities yet.

He checked his attributes.

[Name: Lin]

[Profession: Necromancer (Unique)]

[Level: 1 (0.00%)]

[Strength: 10]

[Agility: 10]

[Spirit: 20]

[Constitution: 10]

[Equipment: None]

[Summon Space: 0/10]

[Skills: Soul Flame (Level 1), Summon Skeleton Warrior (Level 1)]

[Soul Flame (Level 1): Burns the target's soul, causing burning damage. The power depends on the user's spirit and skill level.]

[Summon Skeleton Warrior (Level 1): Summons a Black Iron tier skeleton warrior (Skeletons are categorized into Black Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, Legendary, and Divine tiers).]

In terms of attributes, spirit is superior to the other attributes.

This also signifies the positioning of the Necromancer profession, belonging to the mage category.

The Soul Flame skill also highlights this point.

However, the Summon Skeleton Warrior skill shares similarities with summoner professions.

Soul Flame is definitely not suitable for demonstration, so Lin chose to demonstrate Summon Skeleton Warrior.

Upon skill activation, a dark vortex appeared beside Lin.

Then, a skeleton warrior with a soul fire burning within emerged from the vortex.

His spirit momentarily dropped from 20 to 10, using up half of it.

The Black Iron tier skeleton warrior's bones were all grey.

The entire skeleton had numerous cracks, and even the sword in its hand was broken and old, seemingly picked up from a pile of trash.

More than the sword, the whole skeleton warrior looked like it had come out of a garbage heap.

Such a Black Iron tier skeleton warrior didn't look formidable at all, appearing as if it might fall apart at any moment.

Lin also took the opportunity to check the skeleton warrior's attributes.

[Black Iron tier Skeleton Warrior]

[Strength: 15]

[Agility: 15]

[Spirit: 15]

[Constitution: 15]

[Skills: None]

The four main attributes were quite balanced.

No strengths but also no weaknesses.

Temporarily without skills, it could only use basic attacks.

It wasn't very formidable.

When the skeleton warrior appeared, the students gasped in surprise and unconsciously stepped back.

People always harbor fear towards terrifying things.

Only a few bold ones remained unmoved.

Like Gao Yang, who was instead a bit curious.

Zhang Qian's fingertips glowed, casting a light breeze on the skeleton warrior.

The skeleton warrior's eyes suddenly emitted red light, looking towards Zhang Qian, and its soul fire also flared up violently.

[Skeleton Warrior is under attack, will you retaliate? (If no choice is made within ten seconds, it will automatically retaliate.)]

A message suddenly popped up in Lin's mind, and he quickly commanded the skeleton warrior not to move.

Zhang Qian, with a smile, said, "Very high vigilance."
