Tessa was taken aback by her brother's sudden hug, and then her face blushed. For a half-dead, such an expression was as rare as a sloth running, almost in the category of 'impossible'.
She wanted to use strong actions to hide her true emotions, but she could not help but hesitate, unwilling to let go of this rare opportunity. Just as she was in a dilemma, she heard Tu Ya 'an's words.
"Ah?" At this moment, she really did not know what expression to use. "Why did you suddenly think of this?"
Tu Ya 'an did not understand the true meaning behind his sister's words, and he laughed, "I just got the idea. Think about it, what can necromancy do? The most common thing is to awaken or create dead souls! Spirits without physical bodies were fine, but skeletons, zombies, and even living corpses with physical bodies were all obedient. Even though they had low intelligence, they were absolutely obedient to their master's orders. No matter what kind of orders were given, they would not hesitate or delay. Aren't these kinds of subordinates the best cheap workers? "
The more he spoke, the prouder he became. "Recently, I have investigated the current situation in Void City and the Republic of Northwest, and the biggest problem here is the lack of workers. Whether it is farming, work, or development, they all require a large amount of manpower, but the number of vagrants that can be recruited is decreasing, and it is impossible to meet the demand.
"Under such circumstances, don't you think that it is an opportunity for us necromancers to show off our skills?" He said happily. "Think about it, all those boring and simple jobs are handed over to the dead, and the living only have to command the dead. Wouldn't there be a lot of workers in a short time? "
Tessa really wanted to give her brother a good beating to punish him for his careless behavior, and at the same time, vent her frustrations. But she was a person who knew what was important, and after listening to his words, she temporarily put aside Tu Ya 'an's previous mistakes and seriously considered this matter.
"Dead souls need to be created using magic," she said after thinking for a while. "Magic has a cost, and the cost is not low."
"Necromancy is the cheapest among all kinds of magic," Tu Ya 'an shook his head. Tu Ya 'an shook his head. "I'm not trying to create high level undead, I'm just trying to create low level ones. With my strength, as long as I have enough materials, I can create at least two to three thousand of them in a day. Give me ten days to half a month, and it won't be a problem for me to launch an undead army of tens of thousands. "
He was right and this was the real reason why Necromancers were feared by many countries.
In this world, the spells that made the rulers the most uneasy were necromancers. The most important reason was that Necromancy could quickly create a large army. Although their individual combat power might be weak, this kind of army was loyal and brave. They would carry out the orders of their lord to the letter. Even in the face of the crisis of annihilation, they would not hesitate or be afraid. Once they reached a certain scale, they would be the most terrifying army in the world.
In the past, there had been more than one Legendary Necromancer who had launched an Undead Army to declare war on a certain country. Unless they could find enough experts to form a team to eliminate him, the country would lose every time. On the battlefield, the army of the living had never won a single battle against the Undead Army.
This was one of the main reasons why Tu Ya 'an wanted to become a Necromancer. Only by becoming a powerful Necromancer would he have the confidence to take revenge.
Of course, the most important reason was that he was poor. In order to save his dying sister, other spells other than Necromancy required a large sum of money, and what he lacked the most was money.
Tessa's condition was not really hopeless. If he had enough money, he could even find a large temple and donate a large sum of money to ask the Head Priest to use a powerful divine spell to cure Tessa. The reason why he was able to be saved was because his adoptive father, who was his father's classmate when he was still studying, donated half of his family's assets to get treatment from the Temple of Riches.
Tu Ya 'an was not good at making money and did not have the confidence to become a high-level Necromancer. Thus, he could only take a step back and think of ways to cure his sister.
Among all the healing methods, the only one that he could afford was Necromancy.
Thus, he became a Necromancer.
If he had known that he could become a Legendary Mage, he would not have chosen this path!
A Legendary Mage, not to mention wealth, just by asking for a favor, would be enough to ask most of the temples to cure Tessa …
Over the years, Tu Ya 'an had regretted his choice more than once. But now, he was glad that he had chosen the path of a Necromancer.
For the Republic of Northwest at this moment, the thing that could provide the greatest help was, in fact, Necromancy!
However, this time, as a Legendary Necromancer who was known as the "King of the Dead" and the "Catastrophe of Death," what he wanted to do was not to gather an army to attack a country. Instead, he wanted to forge swords and use them as plows to mobilize the Undead Army to participate in the construction of the country.
He believed that in the Republic of Northwest and the Church of the Void Mask, there might be more than one master who was stronger than him. But in terms of labor … Haha, hahahaha, even if other Legendary Masters worked together, they would not be able to compete with his Undead Army!
Don't forget, this was the Cinder Woods, the place with the richest resources of the Undead in the world. Although most of them were skeletons of the lowest level, skeletons were still labor!
The strength of skeletons was weaker than a strong living person. In a one-on-one fight, even an ordinary farmer could defeat them. But in terms of work, a skeleton was much better than a farmer. A farmer needed to eat and rest, but a skeleton only needed to replenish its magic and repair its wear and tear regularly. It could even work from day to night.
Of course, under the sun, the skeletons would be damaged by the positive energy contained in the sun. But this was not difficult to solve as long as the skeletons worked at night.
Because of the negative energy contained in the Cinder Woods, the skeletons working at night would not be damaged. Instead, they could continuously absorb the negative energy and become stronger!
The more Tu Ya 'an thought about it, the more proud he was. He told his sister and hurried out to the Void Mask Temple to meet Sui Xiong.
He met Sui Xiong successfully and told him his plan.
Sui Xiong was shocked. He never thought that Necromancy could be used in this way!
But after thinking about it carefully, he realized that this method was really feasible.
Not only that, this method had additional benefits.
To the pioneers in the Cinder Woods, the biggest danger was the attack of the skeleton army on the night of the extreme first day. But the skeleton army did not appear out of thin air. They were actually formed from the corpses of various creatures that died in the Cinder Woods over the years. There were a lot of skeletons, but with the help of a Legendary Necromancer like Tua 'an, it wouldn't take long for all the corpses in the area to be transformed into skeletons under his control. Then, he would be able to completely eliminate the danger of a' skeleton siege 'in this area.
Not to mention anything else, just this alone was worth it for him to do this!
But Sui Xiong thought about it and could not help but frown.
The leader of the Church of the Void Mask, Satan, had been researching ways to purify the negative energy. His plan was to build a huge purification array that could cover the entire Cinder Woods and turn this forbidden area into a beautiful northern paradise. Tu Ya 'an's idea was good, but it conflicted with Satan's plan.
Sui Xiong would not be unreasonable in favoring Satan just because he had joined his team earlier than him. But in the long run, whether it was to let the people live and work in peace or to restore the natural resources of the Cinder Woods, Satan's plan was obviously more reasonable.
The Republic of Northwest, with its verdant hills and limpid waters, was much better than the Republic of Northwest, which was filled with skeletons.
Not to mention other things, who would be willing to deal with skeletons all day long!
He hesitated for a while, but he still said these thoughts.
Tua An was silent. Although he was a mage who was close to reaching the mid-Legendary-level, his status should be higher than Satan, who had yet to step into the Legendary-level. However, he knew that His Majesty Void Mask's considerations were correct. To the citizens of the Republic of Northwest, even if skeletons could be a good labor force, they would not be willing to deal with skeletons all day long.
"I'm sorry, I didn't think it through." Finally, he sighed deeply and said, "You're right, even I would not choose to become a necromancer who deals with skeletons all day long if it wasn't for what happened in the past. Even I am like this, not to mention the ordinary citizens … My thoughts are still too simple and naive, I'm sorry to have wasted your time. "
Sui Xiong saw his dejected face and comforted him, "Your thoughts are actually still very useful, at least for now, it will be of great use to the Republic of Northwest. As for the future … let's talk about it in the future. Even if we don't need these skeletons in the future, at least they were useful in the past, right? "
Tu Ya 'an's worries turned into joy, and he smiled again.
"You're right, let's talk about it in the future. Even if the Republic of Northwest doesn't need me in the future, at least I can be of use now. Being able to help you now is better than not being able to do anything! "
As he spoke, he clenched his fists, and his eyes shone with a strong sense of confidence. His expression also became urgent.
He did not have much time left, so he had to make the best use of his time and quickly produce some results!
