Magicians never make wishes

Chapter 128 The Netherworld

This soul core is much larger than the original soul core, and its specific form has also changed.

The original manifestation of the soul core was the blue soul fire in the two eye sockets.

The new soul core turned the two blue soul flames into purple, and the soul flames became much more intense than before.

Ronan found himself having more control over the skull.

The skeletons now come in two modes: a control mode and an automatic mode.

The control mode is actively controlled by Ronan, which is smoother than the control mode that comes with the "Skull Summoning" spell. It is not only simpler, but also much more responsive.

The automatic mode represents a significant leap forward.

The skeletons of today can not only better understand his meaning, but also make their own judgments and take appropriate actions.

Ronan estimated that the skeleton now had the intelligence of a seven-year-old child.

However, this is only temporary.

As the skeleton grows, its intelligence will gradually increase, and it is more likely to grow into a higher-level skeleton in the future.

This little skeleton, with its promising future and unlimited potential, must be given a resounding name.

He was lost in deep thought.

Ronan initially considered calling it "Skull 1," but then felt that cold, hard numbers couldn't convey human compassion.

After much thought, he decided to name the skeleton "Go!"

It's simple, easy to understand, and easy to use, and it can also cause some trouble for the enemy on the battlefield, killing two birds with one stone.

Imagine you're in a situation where you need to retreat but can't be too direct about it. In that case, you could shout, "Charge! Come back first!"

Upon hearing this, wouldn't the enemy feel a sense of disconnect, like their left and right brains are fighting each other?

Not bad, not bad————

Ronan thought he was a genius at naming things.

"Bring me some tea."

He reclined on the soft chaise lounge and whispered commands to the skeleton.

Through the soul core, he instilled the process of boiling water and making tea into the skeleton.

Only through constant stimulation and continuous learning can the skeleton accelerate its growth.

Upon hearing this, he nodded heavily and then slowly walked towards the kitchen.

He sensed through his spiritual senses that it was taking out tea leaves and boiling water to prepare for brewing tea.

Ronan nodded. "This person's intelligence is not bad."

Saying he's a 7-year-old child refers to his intelligence and comprehension ability; he has absolutely no problem carrying out his master's commands.

After boiling the water, they brewed the tea leaves with the hot water and carefully brought it over to me.

The whole process, while not exactly flawless, went very smoothly without any hiccups.

This convinced Ronan that he needed to instruct it more to promote its development.

However, Ronan was clearly being a bit too optimistic.

A 7-year-old child's intelligence can sometimes lead to very unreliable actions.

For example, right now.

"Get him here, go cook me two dishes."

Ronan wanted to try it out and see what the skeleton's understanding of cooking was.

As expected, without his explanation and instruction, the skeleton obviously didn't know what stir-frying was, but it could understand that Ronan wanted to eat, so it went to the kitchen, took two pieces of bread, and placed them in front of him.

As expected, without any indoctrination process, the skeleton could only act on instinct.

This reminded Ronan that he needed to instill a set of behavioral logics in advance to regulate how the skeletons should react when they received relevant commands.

This is like teaching a child a basic set of behavioral logic, such as what to do, what not to do, and when to do something first.

Therefore, the most important thing now is to teach the skeletons how to survive in the undead realm and continuously grow stronger.

Ronan pondered and summarized.

He also had some knowledge of Gou Daoliu and the like.

Time flew by, and the second free lesson finally arrived.

When Ronan arrived, he found the classroom already packed with students from all departments.

If it weren't for the fact that a seat had been reserved for him by the other freshmen, he probably would have had to stand to listen to the lecture.

"What's going on? Why are there so many people today?" Ronan asked the man next to him, Ba Quan.

"You're not on the Magic Network?" Ba Quan raised his eyebrows.

"What happened?" Ronan asked curiously.

He's been training me these past few days, preparing for my future exile to the undead realm, so he hasn't been using the magic network much.

Ba Quan immediately explained, "They said the last free course was so popular that it attracted many of the previous batches of students."

Seeing Ronan's still puzzled expression, Ba Quan added, "I heard that the previous free courses were taught by another instructor, whose level wasn't as high as Instructor Cursed Eye's. Since the last class, the forums on the magic network have been buzzing with it—that's why so many people have come here to experience Instructor Cursed Eye's teaching abilities."

"I suppose it's not free for returning students?" Ronan remarked. "They really have money to burn."

However, upon further reflection, he realized that given the teaching level of the Cursed Eye Instructor, spending money to retake the course wouldn't be a bad deal.

"Today's lesson will begin with a discussion of the 'Skeleton Summoning' problem left unresolved at the end of last lesson, specifically the third possible solution for dealing with the summoned skeletons: banishing them to the undead realm."

As soon as the Cursed Eye Master entered the lecture hall, he saw that the seats below were full, so he didn't waste any words and started lecturing directly.

"Before we go any further, everyone needs to understand one concept: What is the Netherworld? Or rather, where is the Netherworld?"

"You can think of the Undead Kingdom as a plane that is attached to our world. This plane is home to a large number of terrifying monsters, undead creatures, and so on. The environment and rules of this plane are conducive to the growth of these creatures."

"Therefore, for us necromancers, the greatest use of the Netherworld is as a place of exile for our summoned creatures."

"Especially when you raise a high-level undead creature, you can banish it to the undead realm and summon it back when needed."

"This not only solves the containment problem, but also encourages higher-level undead creatures to grow stronger."

"Next, I will explain the anti-summoning magic that is inherent to summoning magic, 'Necromantic Banishment'."

The Cursed Eye Master took out a goblin corpse and placed it on the ground.

The Minggu Lecture Hall is a tiered classroom, and the rear also offers a good view.

With everyone focused on the scene, the Cursed Eye Instructor simply waved his hand, and a goblin skeleton leaped up from the corpse.

This goblin skeleton seemed very energetic, jumping around a few times before circling the Cursed Eye Mentor.

"As you can see, these are the skeletons created by the 'Summon Skeleton' spell. Next is the casting process of 'Necromantic Banishment' —"

As soon as he finished speaking, the goblin skeleton seemed to sense something and immediately started jumping around restlessly, but it did not dare to do anything out of line.

Such high IQ!

Ronan couldn't help but exclaim, "It's almost as good as if I were the one who got it."

After the Cursed Eye Master finished casting his spell, he pointed a finger at the goblin skeleton.

In an instant, a spatial fluctuation emanated from the goblin skeleton, and its form gradually faded.

In no time, the goblin skeleton disappeared from everyone's sight.
