BXBX NOVEL Chapter 93 - Basement
Since the dark energy swirling around the place has dissipated already, the mansion is not as grim as before. It just has the feel of loneliness vibe in it due to how long it has been since someone lived here. And even if the Necromancer Lich is living here before, it was clear that the lich did not bother to improve anything here.
The interior has no furniture so I didn\'t have to worry about any sort of repair. There are also many rooms but since I don\'t really have much any idea how the house system in Alternate World due to how I don\'t have a house in the past timeline in the game and how I ignore its mechanics before, I am currently not sure. The only thing I know is that if you have a house, you can install a smithy, a pharmacy and any kind of thing that has a relation to your EX-job, other than that, I am clueless.
There are many rooms present in this house. After going around them for one visit, I already remembered everywhere of the place which will be perfect for me to avoid getting lost here. After all, I will be purchasing this place.
"Master! I found something! Come here quick!" Lina shouted somewhere around the middle room out of the 10 rooms line up together.
"You found something?" I asked as I open the door.
There, I saw Lina squatting on the carpet as she removes it on the floor, revealing a trapdoor.
"A basement huh? This should be normal for a mansion though so I am not surprised," I said and checked the handle if I can open it.
It was easily opened so my guess is that the Necromancer Lich have surely used this place before seeing some traces of being used on its hinges.
"Let\'s check this place out."
We descended to the basement. With Lina using her fire magic to illuminate the way, we slowly descended to our destination. Maybe after purchasing this mansion I have to ask someone to install lights here in this basement\'s stairs to allow the people descending towards the basement have access to light despite lacking the ability to use magic like swordsmen classes.
Arriving the basement, I saw that it was a study room and a pharmacy room since I saw a pharmacy installed already. If you have a pharmacy, portable pharmacy or any kind in your house, you can easily use this chance to create potions and the like. The pharmacy is also kind of free way of experimenting medicine and some other stuff since the Ex-job Pharmacist does not just rely on the existing recipes given by NPCs, they are free to experiment time. Usually, if it is a failure, if you are a blacksmith, the material of the weapon will be destroyed after it gained a failure tag. In pharmacist EX-Job, any items crafter here can be easily consumed.
Of course, the failure potions made are also possible to consume but due to the "Failure" status, the effects intended will never work, and will grant you a random debuff or buff depending on how bad the failure is.
I also checked the books scattered on the table and on the floor and one of it catches my eye. Something popped up after picking up the first book I held in my hands.
[Book of Necromancy]
Type: Class and Skill book
Usage: Can be used indifinitely.
Effect: Reading this book will unlock an additional skill tree consisting the Necromancer class skills plus additional 20 SP.
Restriction of class usage: None
It was a totally unexpected even for me. It is a skill book! No, this is a Class Book + Skillbook that will allow you to unlock theclass tree the skill book possess. Even if you are a Swordsman, mage or any kind of class as long as you have the book\'s class tree of that Job, you can still use it for versatile purposes. But that was not the real reason I am excited about.
Necromancy class have yet to be released since it is scheduled to be released after the release of the First Patch, the Sandurk Expansion pack which include other classes. I have yet to hear a future class to be released very early in the form of a Skill book and this is the first time for me to encounter one even in my past life.
[Would you like to use the [Book of Necromancy]? This skill book cannot be recovered after this action.]
Yes/No
Necromancer class can be considered as a one man army but they are not that overpowered as everyone thinks of. They might be able to summon undead and control monsters but they cannot continue to control them. Once you stop your control on the undead, the undead you are using will immediately crumble to dust. During the release of this class, some new players who thought this class can dominate the game choose this class since they wanted to rise above immediately from others by thinking the class is similar to a certain guy who managed to solo almost everything due to his army of shadows. If you know what I mean, then I won\'t say anymore since that is another novel and that we might get mentioned.
Anyways, the players who choose the class and ended up to be disappointed by how the class operates, complained to the creators of the game. However, they became the laughingstock of the gaming community due to how immature they were and were immediately struck down before they can spread toxicity to the community of players.
Still, I admit the Necromancer class is pretty much considered as a class meant for players who like to fight with inexhaustible army against bosses. Too bad that the players can\'t fully grasp its full power since the developers said this would make the balance of the game break and all the players might convert to Necromancer only world which would break the meta.
This is a new class tree so if it is available, I won\'t hesitate to take it.
[Congratulations! You have achieved the title, [More Advanced than Beta Testers]! [Necromancy] Skill Tree has been added to your skill tree!]
A new title again? And a title I have yet to hear and see. I am curious so I decided to check this out. I am pretty sure the title is also Unique.
[More Advanced than Beta Testers]
Type: Unique Title
Method to achieve: Unlock an unreleased Class skill tree.
Info: Increases the luck of finding Skill books and experience books on loots. Effect increases if the user managed to unlock another class unreleased on the current patch. The effect can be used and stacked with other effects even if not equipped.
Note: You are the first player who managed to play the game first before the Beta Testers. Of course you are not a beta tester but you managed to get something a beta tester did not get yet, so are you a beta tester now? Have you outplayed the beta testers that are also outplaying the normal players? I don\'t know, don\'t ask me. It\'s confusing.
