Wizard: I Have a World of the Dead

The corridor leading to the government office!

This is a long corridor located in the heart of the dungeon.

Walk through this corridor, and you'll reach the BOSS room.

"Phew!~"

Lin Qi breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally... I've been looking for this for ages!"

He had been exploring the dungeon for days, searching for this cursed place.

Although the terrain of the core dungeon area remains unchanged within the instance, the reality is vastly different from the game.

Regardless of the length of the corridors, the number of intersections, or the distribution of dark rooms, it is hundreds of times more complex than what is shown on a computer screen.

He had wandered around the dungeon countless times these past few days, long since lost his way in this labyrinthine silence, and could only rely on his memory of the game map to blindly advance in a general direction.

Fortunately, Lady Luck smiled upon him, and after stumbling and falling for so many days, the corridor finally stood before him.

Holding a lantern, Lin Qi stood at the entrance of the corridor and began to plan his tactical arrangements.

The name "Corridor of the Organs" tells you what kind of corridor it is; just look at the bones scattered all over the floor in the dim firelight.

Getting through here won't be an easy task.

The entire corridor is several hundred meters long and is divided into three sections.

The first part is about floor traps.

Each stone slab could be a death trap; once stepped on, enchanted arrows would shoot out from the walls on either side, turning the intruder into a sieve.

The specific locations of these traps are different each time you enter the instance, so Lynch doesn't know which floor tiles he can step on and which he can't.

There's no other way but to try them one by one!

"You all, line up..."

Arrange the skeletons in a line, carry torches and walk forward, stepping on each floor tile one by one.

The first skeleton had barely taken a few steps when, with a "crack," the stone brick beneath its feet sank. Hidden holes on both sides of the wall opened simultaneously, and arrows rained down. The skeleton was instantly riddled with arrows.

"Third row, second piece from the left..."

Lin Qi took out a small notebook and made a mark in it.

"continue!"

The second skeleton went in, and after only a few steps, the same fate befell it: after a series of rapid "whoosh" sounds, bones scattered all over the ground.

Then came the third, the fourth, the fifth...

Skeletons fell one by one in the rain of arrows, their broken bones piling up on the ground.

Lynch's sketches became increasingly detailed, with every safe brick marked on them.

Only after the location of the last brick was confirmed did Lin Qi lead the remaining undead forward.

Even so, he still walked very carefully, summoning the portal with every step so that he could escape at any time in case of any unexpected situation.

These arrows have been tempered by the black wizard's magic, and the magical shield of the Wisdom Set is simply not enough to stop them.

"Da...da...da..."

Footsteps echoed softly and intermittently in the dim corridor, while the dim light of lanterns flickered on the corridor walls.

One minute...two minutes...five minutes...

"clatter!"

The sound of boots hitting the ground rang out, and Lin Qi finally stood on the platform outside the corridor.

"Phew!~"

He breathed a sigh of relief and glanced back at the narrow corridor behind him. He had walked through it hundreds of times in the game, and he had never felt that any time was so difficult.

There are so many creative ways to beat this place in the game, and some expert players even come here specifically to trigger traps and mechanisms to hone their skills.

However, you can start over if you die in a game, but in reality, Lin Qi certainly wouldn't have the guts to do that.

"Safety first, safety first."

Bringing his wandering thoughts back, Lin Qi continued to look ahead.

The second section of the corridor is just ahead.

This is a deep pit.

It was several meters wide and several meters deep. The bottom of the pit was covered with countless sharp spikes, each one gleaming with an ominous dark purple luster.

Between the spikes, a viscous liquid bubbled and gurgled, emitting a sickly emerald green foam.

Stone pillars protrude from the deep pit, each less than half a meter wide, with intervals ranging from one meter to several meters, like a row of irregular checkers squares scrambled by a giant, extending all the way to the end of the corridor.

How should we get through this area?

Lin Qi squinted.

The spikes in this deep pit are all enchanted and tempered, enough to pierce the defenses of a mid-level knight.

The flowing liquid was a putrid mixture of magical waste and highly toxic substances; a single drop could dissolve flesh and bone.

The only way to get there is by walking on the stone pillars in the middle.

That's easy, just skip over it, right?

That's true, but there's a problem: skeletons have relatively stiff joints, so their agility is halved when they jump.

The stone pillars here are spaced between one meter and several meters apart. In the game, you would need at least 8 or 9 points of agility to get past them, and in reality, the distance is roughly the same.

Dungeon skeletons have an agility coefficient of around 16, and if it's halved, they'll only have 8 points left, which might not be enough for them to jump over.

As for the lich...

Needless to say, these third-class disabled people would be lucky to even jump over them. But the boss room is right in front of them. Without these main AOE attacks, how can they fight the boss?

What should we do?

Lin Qi thought and thought and thought...

Ding!

Got it!

After thinking carefully for two seconds, Lin Qi quickly came up with an idea.

He raised his hand, summoned a portal, and sent the skeletons and liches into it, leaving only Diego behind.

If the skeletons can't get through, can't he just get through by himself?

Once we get there, we'll summon them back.

"Absolutely perfect!"

After secretly praising his own cleverness, Lin Qi traveled light and arrived at the edge of the pit.

He first opened the system panel to check his attributes.

Name: Lynch Warren.

Occupation: Knight (Intermediate). Wizard Apprentice (Low)

Attributes: Strength 13.2, Agility 13.6, Constitution 12.1, Spirit 2.3.

Skills Mastered: Undead Domination Lv8, Berserk - Brute Force Breathing Max, Berserk - Swift Breathing Lv1, Apprentice Meditation Lv1, Ignition Max, Fireball Max...

Although he has been busy with dungeon raids these days, Lynch's knight training has never slacked off.

At the end of each battle, he would deliberately leave one or two monsters behind for him to practice on.

The battlefield is the best place for knights to hone their skills, bar none!

The Knight's Breathing Technique is integrated with the Knight's combat techniques, and it will naturally operate during combat.

After several months of fighting, Lin Qi's strength has improved significantly, and his Berserk Breathing Technique has been upgraded to the maximum level.

In addition, some attribute-boosting potions found in the dungeon quickly raised Lynch's three-dimensional attributes to around 13, not far from becoming a mid-level knight.

Among these, there is one more key point that must be mentioned—

Berserk - Swift Breathing Technique!

Lynch has recovered the second part of the family breathing technique that was lost by the ancestors of the Warren family.

The one who brought him this generous gift was none other than Earl Vinhart.

After the banquet that day, the count discussed the price of Wind Ridge Pass with him in detail. To Lynch's surprise at the end of the negotiation, the other party pulled out this book of knightly secrets.

So this thing had been with him all along!

Although this knightly skill is actually irrelevant to Lynch, who has already embarked on the path of a wizard, it wouldn't be a bad thing to learn it since he has found it.

When Butler Cliff heard the news, he was so excited that he burst into tears.

After closing the system panel, Lynch called Diego over.

He first took a sturdy rope from the castle and tied it to Diego, while attaching the other end to himself. Then he ordered Diego to insert the greatsword into the stone slab.

Although I was confident that I could definitely skip it, I still wanted to be on the safe side and add an extra layer of insurance.

"Phew!~"

With everything ready to proceed, Lin Qi took a deep breath and officially began the challenge.

Berserk - Agility Surge!

As soon as he activated the Swift Breathing Technique, Lin Qi immediately felt a surge of power flowing into his legs, causing his leg muscles to swell and his entire body to feel much lighter.

Using that force, he immediately leaped upwards!

"Whoosh!~"

The knight's explosive power was on full display at this moment. His body was like an arrow released from a bow, landing steadily on a stone pillar, his feet covering the entire surface of the pillar.

It seems pretty good!

It must be said that the feeling of personally experiencing amazing physical abilities is something that cannot be replaced by controlling a little person on a computer screen.

Lynch felt like he was Superman.

Calling Diego to jump over, Lynch then leaped towards the second pillar, then the third, the fourth...

"Huff! Huff! Huff!"

The sound of wind cutting through the air echoed in the empty corridor. Lin Qi was like a squirrel in the forest, leaping from one end to the other.

He ignored the sharp spikes in the deep pit below, and the bubbling venom did not affect him in the slightest.

He quickly jumped to the other side.

The second paragraph passed perfectly.

However, it was precisely at the moment of landing that...

"Click click click!"

A series of dense grinding sounds of bones rang out.

The corridor was teeming with dungeon skeletons and zombies, and the green flames surged and undulated in the darkness like a ghostly green ocean.

Lin Qi, who was prepared, immediately raised his hand, and a teleportation portal slowly appeared behind him. The loyal undead legion strode out and charged fearlessly towards the enemy.

A fierce battle has begun.

"Click click click!"

"Clang! Clang!"

"Whoosh—crackle—boom!"

The sounds of bones grinding and metal clashing rose and fell, the wind and snow howled, flames danced, and lightning flashed.

The battle ended quickly, and few of Lynch's skeleton warriors remained.

But it's okay!

He immediately took a step forward, and the ripples of his spiritual energy spread outwards, causing the broken bones in the narrow corridor to reassemble.

Skeletons rose from the pile of broken bones.

After replenishing the troops, Lin Qi did not delay and continued forward, arriving at the end of the corridor.

At the end of the corridor was an iron gate with a winch next to it. Two skeletons stepped forward and turned the winch. With a creaking sound, the gate rose up.

An extremely spacious hall and the dark, imposing objects within it gradually came into view before Lin Qi's eyes.

The final battle...

The curtain rises!
