Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!

—–

“I just discovered it, but Petrification is still a curse. The Basilisks shot invisible rays of curse magic against their targets. The rays are incredibly fast, but they can be blocked through a barrier made of light! Spirit of Light, maintain it up and expand it!”

“Fooo!”

The little Spirit of Light made a small sound and flew around Emeraldine, enhancing the barrier and expanding it all while maintaining it up for us! The barrier expanded and it protected everybody else from the petrification. Those that were affected by it quickly shifted their attack pattern to long-ranged combat, while those immune to it, Mercury and me, ran around the barrier slaughter the Basilisks.

“GRUUOOOHHHH!!!”

However, a Boss already showed up, running from the floor below, a larger than usual Basilisks emerged. It was around 30 meters tall; the thing was a titan! And it had three Basilisks head, meaning that it had six damn eyes! Each Eye had a special Curse, one caused Petrification, the other had a Curse that lowered all stats by -20%, and the last pair of eyes could cause temporary blindness and mute, so we cannot see nor even chant! The barrier of Emeraldine suddenly became vital for everybody except Mercury and I, who were completely immune to those shits.

The Boss was a Three-Headed Basilisk Tyrant King, and it was mighty not only in curse casting, but sheer strength! Its enormous trio of tails were big enough to shake the floor while hitting it, and all three of them were directed towards Emeraldine’s barrier! If those things end up hitting the barrier, it will surely break!

“Mercury, go all out!!!”

“GUUUU!”

Mercury gave out a valiant roar, as he jumped towards the Three-Headed Basilisk Tyrant King and quickly began to spread out his body around the creature, entangling all of its limbs and stopping it from moving the tail. The Boss’ scales were incredibly hard, so Mercury’s digestive acid was barely working on it, and the elemental spells he could use were only up to mid-tier, so they were dealing absolutely no damage to a monster with [Dragon Scales] Skill, which reduced elemental damage substantially.

This guy wasn’t as tanky as the Metal Slime King, but he was damn durable and annoying! Not only Emeraldine was tasked with maintaining the barrier, I also had to give her my own Mana which I drained from the other Basilisk and the Boss surrounding us, all while I had to find a way to kill him while everyone else was busy dealing with the army of Basilisks rushing towards us.

I had trying to use my Gorgon Eyes against these damn bastards, but it has gotten harder and harder to be honest. They got Resistance to all Curses, so my Eyes are barely effective, even if I use all of their effects… However, they’re not immune! I also had the [Greater Curse] Skill which allowed my hits to leave Curses on the targets their hit. I combined this with my Gorgon Eyes and then unleashed rays from my eyes, trying to curse the boss while Mercury kept him busy, tanking his many hits while the boss tried to free itself by struggling like there was no tomorrow!

FLAAAAASSSHHH!

“GROOAARR!”

The Basilisks quickly felt all of my Curses accumulating and hitting him. His body was suddenly paralyzed, and he was poisoned as well! Not only that, but his mind was becoming dizzy and confused, and he was losing his mind, hahaha! Look at him now, he was just taking his tongue out like a dumb dog or something.

However, this wouldn’t last long, we had to quickly finish this guy off before things were to get worse! I ran straight towards him and told Mercury to back off for now!

“Mercury, get away!” I said.

“GUUU!”

Mercury jumped off the Basilisk, who fell straight into the cold floor. The creature struggled to fight my Eye powers, and he was doing a great work at resisting the agony, but I wasn’t going to let him recover and then wreck us again. I got a bit closer to him above and then…!

“Chaotic Dark Meteor!”

FLASH!

All of my MP was drained in a single second, as a gigantic mass of darkness, poison, death, and chaos converged into a large, solidified black crystal rock made out of all these raw elements of magic materialized together! This amazing spell was a good finisher, but it literally drained all of my MP, so I only had one shot before I had to fully recover my MP to fire it again.

The gigantic meteor fell rather quickly down below. The enormous Basilisk attempted to evade, but the spiders led by Pyro used their spiderwebs to keep him tightly stuck in the floor while the meteor closed in, finally impacting, and exploding!

BOOOOOOMMMM!!!

The darkness of my spell engulfed the entire Boss, as it spread out through shockwaves. Everybody jumped away as I lifted them with several Phantasmal Libs off the ground. Mercury was tanky enough to resist it anyways (he was too heavy for me to lift him off the ground). The other monsters were engulfed in the darkness of the shockwave and killed instantly. Just seconds after my attack, I saw hundreds of souls flying around, and quickly getting eaten by the Dungeon itself. I decided to extend more Phantom Limbs, as I caught a few dozen of them for myself, including the big soul of the Dungeon Boss.

And then, everything was in peace once more. I could sense more monsters coming from the tenth floor, but for now we had a few minutes to assess things and quickly collect all the loot spread out! I spread countless of funny-looking stretched phantasmal hands, grabbing everything greedily and stuffing it into my Inventory, all the while I saw System Notifications, the amount of EXP was pretty good, but not as high as the Metal Slime King!

Ding!
