I, the undead, save the world with the dolls

Vitality 11 Energy 4 Stamina 8 (30) Willpower 21 Strength 11 (30) Agility 6 Adaptability 9 Intelligence 4 Faith 12

Willpower is almost enough, it's time to do something else. While the battles can be handed over to the humanoids, I can't just use this undead system as a summoner, right? It would be ridiculous for a high-level undead to be kidnapped by an ordinary human.

Never mind. I'm pretty fast at getting souls anyway, so I'll probably just get all my points to 30. Next up is the Hyde area, finding the gold digger, and learning miracles. So, I'll probably just increase my miracle points first. Sun Yang guided the soul within him.

Vitality 11 Energy 4 Stamina 8 (30) Willpower 21 Strength 11 (30) Agility 6 Adaptability 9 Intelligence 4 Faith 20

After the upgrade, Sun Yang stood up. Unlike the intuitive feeling of increasing physical fitness, which would inevitably lead to stronger bodies, Sun Yang felt nothing unusual after increasing his faith. He didn't have a strong desire to believe in God or kneel down to pray. He still felt that the gods in the Dark Souls world were nothing special, and he also thought it would be great to interact with the Sun Princess.

But Sun Yang couldn't be so foolish as to ask what increasing Faith felt like; that was too strange. Anyway, as long as it worked properly when he played with the Thunder Gun and the like, why bother worrying about it? Increasing Faith wouldn't make him a charlatan, and probably increasing Intelligence wouldn't actually make him smarter.

"And these things, is there any explanation?"

Sun Yang pulled out the elemental fragment, which looked like a hard block of orange glass or frozen dried mango. It was found by the humanoid during his carpet search.

"Oh, it seems there is hope..." The girl in green robe was about to give a long speech.

"It's to increase the capacity of the bottle, right?" Sun Yang took out his own bottle, and the liquid flashing with orange light slightly illuminated his hand.

"······" The girl in green robe made a few gestures with her hands, and the element fragments turned into soft gel and melted into Sun Yang's element bottle.

"Thank you." Sun Yang thanked the green-robed girl and hurried back to his room. He was exhausted after working outside for a while. He quickly took off his clothes and closed his eyes to prepare for bed. Maintaining a good sleep and rest schedule is the key to staying healthy! Even though he is immortal.

Drowsiness and fatigue had already crept up my arms and legs, my muscles were relaxing, my nerves were blurring, and my consciousness was fragmented.

······

A dreamless night passed. Sun Yang opened his eyes, and for some reason, his yearning for the old world faded.

The despair he had felt disappeared after he was officially pulled out of his human form, and after M4 and AR15 talked to him for a long time, he felt much better.

It's not so much that I've gotten better, but rather that I've adapted to the current situation. There was a bit of a blockage in my heart, but now it's gone.

After all, in his original world, there wouldn't be three beautiful girls treating him like this. If he were reading a novel, he would probably scoff and say that a few little girls had arranged it for him.

But honestly, having people to communicate with is really important. Sun Yang doesn't think he's the kind of person who can go a week without interacting with anyone. Sun Yang really wants to treat the people of the Dark Souls world well and communicate with them, but the gap in their perspectives is so huge that he can't integrate.

As for the dolls, they at least knew about video games and music players. When they were with people they knew well, they naturally felt safer.

Sun Yang stopped his wild thoughts, got up from the bed and stretched his body.

I don't know how many days I've been here, but since I can't leave quickly, it's really meaningless to record the number of days. There's not even any change of seasons in this crappy place.

He left the room and went to open Brother Map's door first to get something. Brother Map's house was not small, and there were all kinds of strange books inside. Sun Yang took out the scanner made by Pascal and scanned all the books around him, and then explored the room.

A few minutes later, Sun Yang walked out of the room. There was nothing else except the elemental fragments and soul container guarded by the skeleton downstairs.

Afterwards, he went to visit and greet every undead he could meet, bought a coat for daily wear from Asan, bought dozens of magic pots from a traveling merchant, and finally gave his bottle +1. After doing all this, Sun Yang did not rush to Hyde's Giant Fire Tower, but turned around and headed straight for the spell girl.

There are currently too many items being looted from Doran's Keep to wait in line any longer. Rather than letting the construction time pile up, it's better to wait for the Oasis to be built and finish the current items before moving on to other places.

As for what to do during this time... strip the armor off the soldiers to study, then throw it into the crusher as raw material. But forget about the corpses. Humanoids might not be able to handle eating corpse starch, and Sun Yang himself is also disgusted by it.

But I don't know if it can be used as fertilizer... Forget it, don't think of this trick unless it's absolutely necessary. It's not like we will be doomed if we don't use corpse compost.

Sun Yang's thoughts wandered as he walked up the slope. A tall girl in a simple coat was sitting on a rock, reading a book and muttering something.

It's the Curse Girl, ah, what's her name? You can't call her the Curse Girl, right?

The spell girl seemed to hear footsteps in the distance. She raised her head and looked at Sun Yang, waving at him: "Mr. Sun Yang, good morning!"

"Good morning. Actually, I came to see you about something." Sun Yang simply ignored the name.

"What do you need from me?"

"I want to learn spells, please teach me." Sun Yang stated his purpose bluntly.

"I heard from others that you are a clergyman with amnesia? But, no problem. After all, it was you who rescued me. If you can help, just come to me. You're welcome. I also plan to stay here for a while to see if I can wait for my teacher." The girl of spell casting did not refuse.

"Thank you so much, Master of Curse. So, what do I need to prepare? Of course, I won't let you teach me in vain. I've even prepared my soul."

This brings up a problem that Sun Yang is more worried about. If he remembers correctly, the degree of enhancement of the first generation of Curse Fire depends on one's own carrying capacity and the maximum capacity given to the Curse Fire user.

In other words, unless every generation of teachers has the same level of carrying capacity as Crana, the fire of magic will inevitably decline.

The second game uses Embers, which contain traces of spellfire power, to power up. The problem is that the game has Embers everywhere, so if you want to max out without a Campfire Explorer, you'll have to run through most of the game.

If it was the former, he doubted the skill of the spell girl. If it was the latter, he didn't know where to buy embers. But no matter what, he had to get the spell gloves first.

"You must remain calm first. I can transfer my spell fire to you and teach you techniques, but the transfer process will consume a lot of souls, so I need you to transfer your soul to me."

"And this process must not be fast. Those who cannot master the flame will definitely be devoured by the flame. Of course, if you eventually want to surpass me, go look for embers. They are left behind by dead sorcerers, and they can also strengthen your flame." The sorcery teacher had a serious expression when he spoke.

It's the 1+2 type! So cool! Sun Yang was delighted in his heart.

"Of course, I know how to proceed step by step. Phew, I'm ready." Sun Yang stretched out his hand, and the spell teacher also held Sun Yang's hand.

"Feel it carefully..." As she spoke, a stream of warm fire came through the palm of her hand. Sun Yang didn't know whether it was the heat from the spell teacher's arm, or she was secretly rubbing the fireball in her palm.

"Okay." The spell teacher released his hand.

"Is it all right now?" Sun Yang tried to feel his body, and indeed there was a small flame. Sun Yang tried to focus on his palm.

Poof. A ball of spellfire the size of a ping-pong ball was suspended in the palm of his hand.

"Don't be impatient. I can only strengthen you once a day. If you can't control the flames well, then I will never help you strengthen. I have seen too many people who thought they could control spells and ended up burning themselves to death. Of course, if you want to learn how to use spell fire, I can teach you. But there will be a fee for this."

"Okay." Sun Yang nodded in agreement. He had to wait for the Oasis base to be assembled soon. He couldn't sit idle during this period, so he might as well use it to practice the Fire of Spells.

23 In short, a week has passed

So Sun Yang began to study and apply spells.

The spell teacher's teachings were quite simple and easy to understand, but it could also be that what she taught was not difficult or profound.

Basically, they teach the basics of fire, as well as the more specialized poison mist, intense sweating, and iron body. Perhaps they'll be useful later.

Every time Sun Yang had learned enough from his spell teacher, he would move to the tower to practice his ability to control fire. At the same time, he would pull out subsequent human figures to come to this world to familiarize himself with combat and exercise.

By the way, Sun Yang has been studying why no big bird came over from the Bird's Nest, and finally came to a terrible conclusion: the big bird had been shot into a sieve when it airdropped Teacher Zhu, and could not throw itself across the sea.

It's better to just sit on the boat. Sun Yang gave up and focused on finding a spell teacher to strengthen his flame.

However, after I increased my flame, I showed no signs of being unable to control it. Using it was like having an extra movable organ, and I could get used to it after practicing for a while.

The spell teacher's answer to this was that Sun Yang had a good adaptability to the spell fire and was born to be a spellcaster. If he went to a university in the south for further studies, he would have great potential.

However, the spell teacher didn’t know what the university was like, and Sun Yang might not be able to get there alive. The curse of the undead might erode all of his humanity before he finished his studies.

M4 and AR15 talk a lot more than before. Before, these two basically didn't send messages to him, but since the showdown, they would send him a few words from time to time, and would also ask Sun Yang to shake them over to sleep with him at night.

Sometimes it was alone, sometimes it was two people together. Although the physiological problems were solved, after all, the AR team's body didn't support many functions... so most of the time they just slept.

The physiological issue here is that you can rest your head on a soft surface when you sleep and have a good rest. There is no other meaning.

Another interesting thing is that when Sun Yang feels that he has mastered a certain skill, a similar skill icon will appear in his head. Perhaps in the world of Dark Souls, this means that a person has mastered this skill and will not kill himself.

In this way, after about seven or eight days, Sun Yang's mastery of the fire of spells reached the limit that the spell girl could give, and the techniques she taught were also fully mastered by Sun Yang.

"You are really amazing, Mr. Sun Yang. I think I have nothing more to teach you." The spell teacher retracted his wrist, and Sun Yang also handed over the soul that he had beaten into his body during this period to the spell teacher.

"I don't really feel anything special." Sun Yang felt the flames within him, which lay quietly within him. After a week of strengthening, the flames had become much stronger, but the upper limit of the power of the fireballs thrown was equivalent to that of a fragmentation grenade.

At present, this is about the same as the female enemy wearing a shafa suit. This level can't be said to be insufficient, but for Sun Yang, he still wants stronger fire power, at least to replace the technological products on his side.

If we were to look for someone, the strongest one would definitely be a witch like Crana, followed by the protagonist of Soul One and Crana's previous apprentice, the King of Spells, Zaraman.

Of course, he couldn't touch or reach these people. The protagonist of Soul One was either still burning or had already become part of the Cinder King's incarnation. It didn't seem possible for Crana and the Spell King to find out no matter how hard they tried.

Of the other sorcerers that Soul Two could communicate with, the one he could remember was the sorcerer girl's teacher, Karion, who taught magic, and the other was the powerful wizard Strider, who was sealed in a stone statue in the Forgotten Cage.

Although Karion only teaches magic, he can also strengthen the fire of spells, so he probably has the corresponding spell power. This depends on luck.

Strider will mock the protagonist for being a weak old man who is cursed, but he really teaches. He can teach magic, miracles, spells, and dark arts, and he can also rub powerful souls with his hands.

After Sun Yang confirmed that the spell teacher could no longer strengthen himself, he returned to his dilapidated house and opened the base interface to check.

Griffin Base continued to operate smoothly. The surrounding collection points had been completely consolidated, and the outposts and patrol systems further afield were complete. Drones were exploring further afield.

The Oasis has a completely new look. Most of the above-ground buildings have been demolished and moved underground. The remaining buildings require sunlight and are better able to withstand the harsh environment.

The scientific research system that Sun Yang had been thinking about was now online. The corpses of various undead people, hippopotamus, turtle soldiers, and cursed ones that had been collected before had all been decomposed and handed over to various parts for research.

Pascal was freed from the heavy work of moving the command base, and after handing over the work at hand to the department head, he concentrated on continuing his humanoid mind research work.

Furthermore, because the fields they cover are so different, currently a single humanoid figure is leading a dozen or so intelligent entities. Therefore, speed is definitely not fast, and reaching conclusions will take time.

There is nothing to worry about. Everything will be fine once we start working.

Sun Yang had been taking his troops out to fight every day for the past week, and had already accumulated a large number of turtle soldier corpses for research. Now, Krochi (mechanical design engineer) and Drase (humanoid maintenance technician) were happily leading a group of people to dismantle the turtle soldiers and study those unfamiliar patterns.

The corpses of various zombies are left to the medical professional humanoids. Sun Yang is really a layman in this area and can only roughly explain his ideas. The rest can only be left to the humanoids to deal with.

Experiments with more reliable plasma and railgun weapons have also begun, though materials are currently in short supply, so they can only slowly build small test machines and refine the theory. This process is likely to be slow.

Theoretically, Xiao Ai's weapons can be copied directly, but the Hanyang-made Xiao Ai's body and weapons are specially made. If you want to upgrade the armament level of the Griffin dolls, you need a scientific research team including Pascal to develop it.

It feels a bit like the scientific research team in XCOM2, although Sun Yang knows that he can't compare with the incredible talent like Taigen.

That guy can research anything, from corpses to weapons. He can research a technology in two or three days at the fastest, and a month at the slowest. Comparing with that kind of shit is too stressful.

"Just take your time."

This was Sun Yang's first words after bidding farewell to the sorcerer and reading Pascal's work report late at night. Let's get on track first, then talk about other things.

If you need anything, just open more. It sounds like the Mica Group in the previous life... At least I can afford to wait here. I will keep the salaries of the humanoids in mind for now. When I find a place to spend money, I will let Pascal print a lot of local currency to buy things.

After Sun Yang finished explaining everything, he took out M4 and AR15 to sleep with him, so that he could gather his energy for tomorrow's action.

······

The sun is shining brightly and I feel refreshed.

Sun Yang put on his armor and retracted his human form. He said hello to the honey-like undead and rushed towards the passage leading to the Hyde area.

The road was long. Unlike the time they had passed through the Giant Forest, the country of Hyde seemed even further away. Sun Yang started chatting with the humanoids halfway through his run, otherwise he would have been bored to death on the road.

After all, Sun Yang hasn't upgraded his green bar yet, so he really can't sprint for a long time. He can only run fast for a while, rest for a while, and then run fast again.

"Fuck! I'm going to have to upgrade my green bar when I get back!" Sun Yang tried to run, but soon became out of breath, then quickly recovered. Now his explosive power was about the same as that of an average middle school student who wasn't overweight or didn't exercise much—something quite weak.

Sun Yang ran in the passage for a whole day. The walls on both sides became wet from dry, as if he had run to a place similar to a sewer.

After passing through the sewer, opening the gate, and walking in the salty sea water for several hours, I finally walked out of a small door and arrived at the location of the Hyde Giant Fire Tower.

The place was almost completely destroyed. All that could be seen was the vast ocean and the buildings built on it. Hyde's huge fire tower gleamed white in the sunlight, and flames still burned brightly on it.

There seemed to be some houses further away that hadn't been destroyed, but that distance was only accessible by boat. Sun Yang looked through the telescope and could no longer see any human figures.

Among the shattered buildings in front of him, there were some tall, heavily armored ancient knights and Knight Hyde who was sitting there pretending to be asleep.

Those ancient knights were also iron golems made using puppet technology, driven by souls. Because these ancient knights were quite old, the metal on them had rusted black and looked very fragile.

The seated Hyde Knights wore whitish armor and barrel-shaped helmets. These knights were highly skilled in martial arts and often used moves that were incomprehensible to humans.

There was one at the door, and Sun Yang didn't dare to rush in directly. Hyde Knight was still powerful. He had nothing to say, so he took out the M14 directly in the passage and kept the remaining blue bar for backup.

"Commander, why did you think of us?" M14 slowly emerged and playfully asked through the communication.

"I've always been thinking about you. It's just that I didn't have many opportunities to appear before." Sun Yang checked his bullet belt and weapon to confirm that there was no problem.

[I thought you would stay immersed in the gentle embrace of those two forever. You can indulge us once in a while.] M14 checked his weapon, confirming it was loaded.

"I will." Sun Yang nodded quickly.

[Alright, Commander, we're just kidding. Is this the enemy we're dealing with this time? Am I the only one?] M14's eyes quickly scanned the enemy before him.

"Because the last campfire was too far away, and I don't want to expose you to the undead like Ru Mi. So, yes, you'll be alone this time." Sun Yang explained.

"Oh? Commander, you're quite possessive, aren't you? Solo combat? That's a bit more challenging. Commander, we can snipe them from a distance. What's your plan?"

"I will shoot those enemies at close range. You provide fire support. If there are enemies approaching from a distance, just help me hold them off. I don't know the weaknesses of these iron golems yet, so if possible, break their legs first. Keep in touch."

After Sun Yang finished speaking, he fired a shot at the Hyde Knight who was pretending to sleep at the door. After all, the Hyde Knight was still a flesh and blood body, and the armor he used could not compare with the turtle soldier.

The enhanced shotgun fired more powerful bullets, easily shattering Knight Hyde's helmet, and the blood splattered from under the helmet spread into the ocean.

[Understood.] M14 found a pillar, climbed up, sat on it, and positioned his rifle. Sun Yang then slid the body into the warehouse and swaggered inside.

The deafening gunshots woke up the patrolling ancient knights and the sleeping Hyde Knights. Sun Yang still shot down a Hyde Knight with one shot.

A continuous stream of rifle fire could be heard overhead, piercing the Ancient Knight's arms and knees. However, the Ancient Knight wasn't human, so simply drilling a hole wouldn't have much of an impact.

The M14 sitting atop the pillar remained silent for a second before firing several shots at Hyde Knight's knees, severing his legs. Sun Yang then fired several more shots at Hyde Knight's joints, severing all of his limbs. He then pulled out a cutting tool and cut open his back. However, the moment he did so, Hyde Knight's soul flew out of his body and into Sun Yang's.

Back? Back again? Are you going to try something new? Generally speaking, when it comes to enchantments, the back is still the most popular. After all, the chest has to take the brunt of the damage, while the back will likely be taken care of by teammates.
