Necromancer: I Am A Disaster

Chapter 329: A Dungeon Radiating An Artistic Atmosphere



Lin Moyu strolled leisurely through the Water God’s Courtyard, the dungeon's layout swiftly mapping itself in his mind. The entire dungeon consisted of interconnected courtyards, each with an open-air design, bordered by small waterfalls on all sides. The environment was masterfully crafted—elegant and harmonious.

The gentle sound of flowing water filled the air, blending together like a symphony. Each courtyard had its own unique melody, creating a soothing atmosphere.

Among all the dungeons Lin Moyu had ventured into, the Water God’s Courtyard stood out for its artistry. Every courtyard featured eighteen stone pillars, some damaged, others intact. Intricate carvings adorned each pillar, depicting various creatures—some beast-like, others humanoid.

One figure appeared repeatedly in the carvings: a female figure. Though the carvings lacked facial detail, her distinctive presence made her instantly recognizable. She was clearly the central figure in these depictions.

“These carvings seem to tell a story.” Lin Moyu mused, “It’s a pity that many of the pillars are damaged, leaving the narrative fragmented.”

In less than twenty minutes, his undead army had cleared all eighteen courtyards, each featuring eighteen stone pillars. Together with the distinct melodies and sounds, the entire dungeon radiated an artistic atmosphere.

The courtyards were arranged in a circular pattern, spiraling inward. At the center was a massive whirlpool.

Without hesitation, Lin Moyu dove into the whirlpool, plunging into its depths. As he descended, the entire dungeon shook violently.

Back in the Dungeon Hall, the entrance to the Water God’s Courtyard suddenly erupted with brilliant light, and an unusual energy quickly spread throughout the Dungeon Hall.

"It upgraded!"

"Godly General Lin was right—the dungeon really upgraded."

"The same thing happened with the Fire God’s Hall last time!"

"As expected of Godly General Lin! Now we can collect water elemental crystal fragments from the water dungeon too!"

Shouts of amazement filled the Dungeon Hall as Lin Moyu activated the Water God's Courtyard's upgrade mechanism by clearing the stage with incredible speed. He had accomplished a similar feat in the Fire God’s Hall, where he had swiftly dealt with the early-stage monsters to trigger a dungeon upgrade. However, this time, Lin Moyu completed the task with even greater ease.

As the dungeon's upgrade concluded, the vortex at the entrance stabilized. Dongfang Yao checked the dungeon's updated information and saw that a new hell rank difficulty had been added.

The dungeon had indeed been upgraded.

Although she had heard of such occurrences, but seeing it firsthand left Dongfang Yao astonished. The Water God's Courtyard had been in the Dungeon Hall for hundreds of years, unchanged since the day it was placed here. No one had ever succeeded in obtaining the fabled water elemental fragments. Now she understood why: only by upgrading the dungeon and clearing its hell difficulty could those fragments be acquired.

The person or party responsible for upgrading a dungeon would automatically face its hell difficulty. At this moment, Dongfang Yao’s curiosity about Lin Moyu deepened—she genuinely wanted to understand everything about him. How could one person achieve such extraordinary feats?

...

Following the whirlpool's current, Lin Moyu found himself in a vast underwater world. Below him stretched a massive palace with a transparent roof, offering a clear view of the gentle currents flowing within.

The palace gate stood firmly shut, appearing to be immensely sturdy, but this did not concern Lin Moyu. Without hesitation, his Skeletal Warriors and Skeletal Mages launched a simultaneous attack. In a matter of seconds, the gate crumbled under their assault.

Suddenly, a powerful surge of the water element poured out from behind the gate, forming a trident that shot toward Lin Moyu with blinding speed. It moved too fast for him to dodge.

Narrowing his eyes, Lin Moyu recognized the trident. It was the same weapon depicted in the courtyard carvings, always appearing beside the mysterious female figure. ᚱ�

The trident struck Lin Moyu, but his Bone Armor shimmered and absorbed the impact, sending the weapon flying back into the palace.

"Pretty good attack power." Lin Moyu murmured.

Judging by the impact on the Bone Armor, Lin Moyu estimated the opponent’s strength attribute to be around 50,000—impressive for a level 37 dungeon.

"It seems the dungeon has upgraded. It should be at hell rank difficulty now." Lin Moyu remarked calmly, unfazed by the change. Having experienced something similar before, he wasn’t surprised.

His undead army surged into the palace ahead of him, but before Lin Moyu could follow, a dazzling light engulfed the interior. Countless tridents materialized in midair, raining down on the skeletons in an overwhelming display. Despite the sheer number of attacks, their power was lacking. The skeletal warriors shrugged off the assault. The Lich Generals casually cast a few healing spells, effortlessly managing the situation. The relentless trident barrage failed to slow their advance.

The palace was vast and empty. Even with Lin Moyu’s entire undead army inside, they occupied only a fraction of the space. The shimmering blue light from the transparent ceiling illuminated the entire area.

Lin Moyu entered the palace himself, feeling the dense concentration of the water element that permeated the air. It was an inexhaustible source of power. As soon as he stepped in, the tridents turned their attention to him as well. However, his Bone Armor neutralized the attacks with ease.

While his Skeletal Warriors charged deeper into the palace, Lin Moyu hung back, surveying the surroundings. The palace walls were weathered and damaged, with faint traces of ancient murals that had mostly been erased or destroyed. Eighteen massive stone pillars supported the structure, though several had collapsed. Like the murals, the carvings on these pillars were badly damaged, making them difficult to interpret.

"It feels like something has been intentionally concealed." Lin Moyu thought, a sense of doubt creeping in. The damaged murals and carvings suggested that someone had deliberately erased certain parts.

After walking for a while, he arrived at the heart of the palace. In the center stood a grand throne. Beside the throne, a radiant trident was embedded in the floor, glowing brilliantly. This trident was clearly the source of the attacks.

As the Skeletal Warriors drew closer to the throne, the blue gem embedded in the trident suddenly flashed. With a deafening bang, columns of water erupted from the floor, forcefully repelling the nearby skeletons. Immediately after, a shimmering water barrier formed around the trident.

[Water God's Trident (projection)]

Lin Moyu cast the Detection spell on the trident, but the results were minimal—only a name appeared: Water God’s Trident. There was no indication of its level, attributes, skills, or traits. No further information was provided. As for what "projection" referred to, Lin Moyu wasn’t sure. Based on the name, it was clearly linked to the Water God. But if the trident was here, where was the Water God?

Regardless, the trident was now an obstacle that needed to be dealt with.

His Skeletal Warriors surrounded the shimmering water barrier, relentlessly slashing at it with their blades, while the Skeletal Mages unleashed a barrage of spells. In less than two seconds, the water screen shattered with a loud crash, leaving the trident exposed. Immediately, the Warriors and Mages focused their attacks on it.

The trident let out a mournful, resonant sound, as if it had been wounded. It lifted off the ground, glowing brightly, and the entire palace shook. The water element surged from every direction, and massive water dragons formed, charging at Lin Moyu's undead army.

However, to Lin Moyu, this attack was no different from the previous ones. Despite its grandeur, the actual power was weak and posed little threat to his skeletal forces. The Skeletal Mages continued casting their spells, effortlessly breaking through the water dragons, while the Skeletal Warriors leapt into the air, grabbing hold of the trident and hacking away at it without mercy.

The trident trembled violently, emitting strange sounds.

Suddenly, a female figure appeared on the throne. She looked remarkably human, her aura intensifying as she gazed down upon Lin Moyu and his army. Her presence was powerful and commanding.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Lin Moyu cast Detection again, this time focusing on the figure, hoping for more information about this new opponent.

[Water God (incomplete projection)]

[Level: 41]

[Strength: 60,000]

[Agility: 10,000]

[Spirit: 10,000]

[Physique: 40,000]

[Skills: Water's Roar, Everfreeze]

[Traits: Water Elemental Immunity, 50% Physical Damage Reduction]

The Detection spell revealed the female figure’s level: level 41, with the combined attributes totaling 120,000. For most class users, facing such a powerful boss would be a near-impossible challenge.

But to Lin Moyu, this was just another obstacle—one he viewed as a ripe fruit, ready to be harvested at any moment.
