Chapter 5 'Capitalist's Ecstasy'

 Two brand-new cards greatly alleviate the dilemma of the creator, a special profession, who cannot cast spells.

It also increased the number of cards held to 15.

Excluding auxiliary types such as Mimicry and Thinking Library that cannot play a role in combat, there are only eight cards that can actually be used to fight enemies.

There are three biological cards and five magic cards.

Two of them were secretly made by Zuo Si based on what he learned in this world and avoiding everyone.

Of course, in addition to the card system of the planeswalker profession, he also used the characteristics of the creator profession to create some magic items, potions and rare objects.

In addition to the magic scrolls saved in daily life, as well as the good things stripped from the corpses of the dead after the outbreak of the plague, in theory it should be enough.

Just when Zuo Si was thinking about using the [Refining] ability to draw energy from some less useful magic items to replenish the empty mana pool, the undead creatures wandering on the streets outside the tower suddenly became commotion.

Get up.

Those zombies and skeletons that originally relied solely on their undead instincts to attack the living suddenly seemed to be stimulated and let out low roars towards the tower, and began to gather at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As for the ghoul, who had the ability to speak and a certain amount of wisdom during his lifetime, his eyes were shining brightly as he stared at Zuo Si standing on the windowsill, which made people involuntarily feel a creeping feeling of terror.

In addition, demons evolved from ghouls, ghosts born from souls, and other dangerous undead creatures that have not yet appeared can be vaguely seen in the shadows of the streets.

There is no doubt that these undead creatures were attracted by the huge movement caused by the creation of land cards just now.

Fortunately, it took less than two months for the plague to break out and kill people in large numbers.

Therefore, some dead powerful spellcasters, warriors, knights, monsters, and magical creatures have not yet had time to transform into more advanced undead forms.

Otherwise, I am afraid this place will really become a country of the undead.

"Gan! I knew something was going to happen."

Realizing that these undead creatures were planning to gather together to attack the tower, Zuo Si finally couldn't stand it any longer.

Since he does not have control over the tower, he has no way to deal with the undead that are roaring in like a tide.

We can only wait for the tower's passive defense system to activate on its own.

Moreover, with the magic energy stored in a mage tower, it may be possible to release lightning, fireballs, ice cones and positive energy spells to kill massive undead creatures.

But once the energy is exhausted, the remaining undead will break open the sealed entrance and rush in to kill every living creature they encounter.

This scene has been staged more than once by other survivors in the tower.

Therefore, Zuo Si is quite aware of the dangers and difficulties he is currently facing.

I can't wait any longer.

Otherwise it is a dead end.

Damn it!

The task that rewards three card drawing opportunities is not that easy to complete.

Just as he was thinking over and over again and checking whether there were fatal loopholes in his escape plan, a group of about thirty zombies of various sizes, a team of six ghouls, finally rushed to the entrance near the entrance, triggering

Warning runes placed around.

The next second...

The already dim top of the tower suddenly released a bright blue light.

Before the undead could approach the sealed door, a chain of lightning fell from the sky.

Wow!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Dazzling silver lightning keeps jumping between the undead creatures.

The body of each target that is hit will instantly turn black, and then fall to the ground uncontrollably, emitting black smoke and a pungent burnt smell.

Just one blow!

One ghoul and several zombies were killed.

Followed by a series of fireballs as big as a washbasin.

Continuously exploding in places where the undead are most densely packed.

Deafening explosions and scalding flames devoured everything.

When the magic flame disappeared, all the undead within 20 meters near the entrance in front of the tower were cleared away.

The powerful defensive capabilities of the Mage Tower are vividly displayed at this moment.

As for Zuo Si, who was standing above watching the show, he took the opportunity to absorb the negative energy emitted by some undead creatures after being killed, and put it into the mana pool to use as black mana.

At the same time, two magic items were destroyed, and about thirty points of general mana were extracted to prepare for emergencies.

Seeing that the undead couldn't attack for a while, he didn't care to stay where he was to take advantage, but immediately ran towards his own room on the east side of the third floor without looking back.

Walking with his two short legs through narrow passages and corridors, as well as empty workshops and libraries filled with bookshelves, Zuo Si quickly arrived at the dormitory where the apprentices lived.

But it’s different from most ordinary apprentices.

His room is not a common room that is so crowded that it can only accommodate four beds, two tables, and a few chairs, but a separate bedroom located at the innermost side.

When the door is opened, the first thing that comes into view is two undead creatures that are bound and fixed on a shelf and assembled from various mutilated corpse parts. They are riding on a device without wheels and a structure very similar to a bicycle.

.

Under their non-stop trampling day and night, the transmission chain drove the rotating shaft below to rotate wildly, making a buzzing noise.

On the rotating shaft, a large number of copper coils are densely and regularly wound.

Two huge ring magnets are placed around the coil.

Anyone who has studied junior high school physics can see at a glance that this is a primitive generator with a simple structure.

The copper wire at the end is connected to a cylindrical crystal about half a meter long and about the same thickness as a water glass.

Through the slightly turbid outer wall, you can clearly see the flashing silver electric light inside.

Obviously, the function of this device is to store the electricity generated by the generator in the form of pure energy.

To put it simply, it is a product that combines technology and magic.

Except for the cylindrical crystal memory, which is a magical object, the rest of it uses 100% electromagnetic induction principles.

As for the power source that provides power for power generation, it is naturally two low-level undead driven by negative energy.

Because in the magical world, there is no so-called "conservation of energy".

Therefore, you only need to replenish the two undead with a little negative energy every once in a while, and the power will be continuously output.

Zuo Si even gave this device a meaningful name - "Capitalist's Ecstasy".

He can guarantee that if the capitalists on earth see the undead creatures in the magical world, their first reaction will definitely not be fear, but they will jump up excitedly and shout that this is the labor force I need.

No need to rest!

No need to breathe!

No need to eat or drink!

No need to fall in love or reproduce!

Don’t be afraid of being corroded by toxic substances!

No need to pay any compensation!

As long as there is a little bit of negative energy, these "little cuties" will be like a perpetual motion machine, continuously producing value.

What nine nine six, zero zero seven...

Even slaves have to stand aside in front of undead creatures that can work around the clock.

By that time, the necromancer, who can resurrect the corpse and control the undead, will definitely be the most popular profession in the world.

Maybe the value of the corpse will exceed that of the living person...

Walking to the cylindrical crystal connected to the copper wire, Zuo Si carefully disconnected it with an insulating tool, took off the device that stored electrical energy, and fixed it on his left belt.

In addition to storing the electrical energy generated by the generator, this strange object can also release it in the form of lightning when needed.

Under normal circumstances, it can release thirty bolts of lightning with normal power or one bolt of super lightning with astonishing power at a target no more than ten meters away.

The former causes stable damage.

The latter is equivalent to releasing all the power at once.

The power depends on the remaining power inside the strange object.
