Eldritch Creature's Guide-Chapter 6 Start Of The Undead Army (II)
10 Days Later 𝗳𝗿𝐞ℯ𝙬𝗲𝗯n𝗼νel.𝒄𝑜𝘮
Time flew rather fast when one was constantly doing something or even if he was not doing anything at all. It all depended on the perception of the time itself. For some, the 10 days worth of time was one big nothing, and for others, it was the significant passage of time.
Though that was not really important right now, 10 have passed since the day Samiel entered the Tower.
He was still comfortable in his cave which he found to be likable. Fortunately, during his time on Earth, Samiel wasn't really picky about his dwellings, as he was constantly pursued by authorities or some "righteous" factions.
Now, he finally had some rest and some freedom; he could finally have some time to just laze around without worrying that somebody would once again try to catch him or kill him.
After spending several days in seclusion, he managed to increase his Level from 1 to Level 4 by the usage of everything. By some heavenly luck, he found Iron-Tier Mana Crystal in the cave when he was looking for something to eat, which significantly speeded up his progress.
Today, after reaching Level 4 and with his above-average strength due to his Racial and Class bonuses. Now, after he had some bit of strength in his pocket, he went out of his cave to hunt for some Orks to start creating his Undead Army, as every Necromancer needed a proper Undead Army.
By obtaining Class, Grand Necromancer, his control over Undead increased, and now he could control 15 Undead per Level, which was a very nice increase. Contrary to the past 5 per Level, a "very nice increase" was an underestimation.
After leaving the cave and searching carefully for several minutes, he finally found his first target, as he managed to find a lone Ork searching for food in the forests. This was rather rare, as Orks usually moved in groups and hordes, so finding lone Orks was rare, especially when they were weak.
If one thought about it, Orks generally behaved like social animals that tended to band together to fear the strong and bully the weak.
Like the rest of his kind, this Ork was tall, taller than the average man, probably two meters at height, with long arms and short legs, building muscles and green skin. From his jaws were lined vicious fangs.
He wore ragtagged, half-destroyed armor with a meat cleaver as a weapon. Like other Orks, this one probably just found his weapon somewhere, dropped or took it from a killed foe.
In a split of a second, Samiel used Black Magic to cast several curses at the Ork, at first to weaken him. Samiel wasn't aware of his strength entirely, so he went through the safe route and used weakening spells at first before confronting the Ork.
[1st Level Spell: Curse of Weakness]
[1st Level Spell: Inflict Wounds]
[1st Level Spell: Ray of Sickness]
He cast two basic curses at the Ork, who unknowingly was being weakened physically and magically from those two curses, and suddenly wounds appeared around his body from the 3rd Spell.
[Ice Weapon Creation]
He used Ultimate Ability Winter Ruler to create an Ice Spear, as he lacked any kind of weapon. Ice formed from the Winter Ruler was durable and stable, more superior to the weapon and armor that the Ork wore.
Samiel utilized all of his physical strength, which could be considered far above average human, probably a superhuman due to him being Old Deus and obtaining Lord Class Knight of the Niflheim, as he jumped from his hiding spot, gripping his spear and making a piercing notion at the Ork searching for something to kill.
'Stab'
Suddenly, in a moment, he pierced through the Ork's heart, killing him instantly, as he used Winter Ruler to freeze his insides, as Orks were very hard to kill. Orks were hard to kill, at least for those who were weak and had never fought one before or didn't know how to fight an Ork.
As he dispersed his Ice Spear, he looked at the dead Ork with a chuckle as he cracked his fingers and cast his Necromancy. The first time he was raising the Undead in the Tower, and in later Epochs, this would mark the rise of Sorcerer of the Necrosis.
[Class Spell: Create Lesser Undead]
Suddenly a weird black miasma rose from Samiel's body, as the deceased Ork Warrior started rising from the dead, and becoming an Ork Undead, officially, Samiel's first Undead created in the Tower.
After Samiel obtained his first Undead, he went further and started exploring the forest, searching for more Orks. This place was freakin huge, and even the largest forest on Earth cannot be compared to even a fraction of this one.
Mana Density didn't benefit only sentient races but also plants, trees, and other lifeforms. They, too, would benefit from the high mana density in the air, and everything would grow bigger, stronger, and more dangerous. Naturally, one couldn't use common sense from Earth in the Tower or probably in any other mana-rich worlds.
Fortunately, it didn't take long before Samiel and his Undead found another lone Ork of an Iron-Tier searching for some food. Now he was wondering if he was blessed by Lady Luck as he located two lone Orks after another.
This could be considered a slight achievement because finding something in the Tower's enormous mini-worlds without proper technique was impressive. Usually, only trackers or those with special methods or techniques could track someone in the Tower with little effort.
