The hug by her brother surprised Tessa. Then her face turned red. For a half-dead person, this feeling was rare.
She wanted to hide her feelings but hesitated. She was reluctant to give up this rare feeling of family union. Suddenly, Tu Ya’an said he wanted to open a store.
“Ah?” At this moment, she didn’t know what she should say next. “Why did you suddenly mention this?”
Tu Ya’an did not understand the true meaning of her sister’s words at all. He laughed and said, “I just got some inspiration. What do you think the Dead Soul Spell can do? The most common thing is to summon or create Dead Souls! Ghosts without entities can’t do anything, but skeletons, zombies, and living corpses are all honest and obedient. Although they are mentally slow, they won’t disobey their master’s orders. No matter what kind of order the master gives, there is no hesitation or delay. Isn’t such a skeleton the best kind of worker?”
The more he spoke, the more proud he became. “Recently, I have also done a detailed survey of the current situation in Void City and the Northwest Republic. The biggest problem here is the scarcity of workers. A large number of people are needed in farming, working and exploiting. But the number of vagrants that can be recruited is getting smaller and smaller, and they cannot meet the needs at all. In this case, don’t you think it’s a chance for necromancy?” he said happily. “Imagine it. We can handle over all the dull and simple work to the dead. The living people just need to command the dead. Doesn’t that add a lot of workers at once?”
Tessa really wanted to beat her unromantic brother to punish him for destroying the moment they just had. But she was rational. After listening to this idea, she put aside that feeling and seriously considered the matter.
“Dead Souls need to be manufactured by magic,” she thought for a moment and said. “Magic costs a lot, and it’s not cheap.”
“Necromancy is the cheapest among all spells,” Tu Ya’an shook his head and said. “I’m not going to make the mid and high-ranked Dead Souls, just the lowest level Dead Souls. As long as I have enough materials, I can create at least two or three thousand Dead Souls in one day. Give me ten days or a half month, I can even launch a Dead Soul Army.
He was right, and that was the real reason why necromancers were feared by many countries.
In this world, the most unsettling spells for rulers were necromancy spells. Necromancy could quickly create a Dead Soul Army. Although the fighting capacity might be weak, the Dead Soul Army was loyal and brave. Even if the whole army were killed, they would carry out the orders of their monarch without hesitation. They were the most terrible army in the world.
In the past, there had been more than one occasion in history where legendary necromancers launched a Dead Soul Army to declare war on another country. Unless there was a strong man who was extremely powerful, these countries would be defeated by the legendary necromancers every time. Facing the Dead Soul Army, the army of the living had never won once.
This was one of the important reasons why Tu Ya’an wanted to become a necromancer. Only when he became a powerful necromancer could he be sure of revenge.
Of course, the most important reason was poverty. Other spells needed a lot of money. Only necromancy was the cheapest. He was poor because he spent lots of money to save his dying sister.
If he had enough money, he could find a big temple and donate a huge sum of money to invite the Bishop to perform a powerful spell to heal Tessa. The reason why he was saved was because of his adoptive father, the old friend of his father. He had donated lots of money to the Temple of Wealth.
Tu Ya’an was not good at making money and was not sure that he would become a high-ranked magician, so he only could try to cure his sister himself. Among all the treatments, the only one he could possibly afford was necromancy.
So he became a necromancer.
If he had known that he would become a legendary mage, he would never have chosen this life.
A legendary mage could ask most of the temples to cure Tessa without giving money. Over the years, Tu Ya’an had more than once regretted his original choice. But now he was glad that he had chosen to be a necromancer.
Necromancy could help the Northwest Republic a lot at this moment.
This time, what he wanted to do was not to gather a Dead Soul Army to attack a country, but to let the Dead Souls participate in national construction. He wanted to let the Dead Souls become the largest exporter of labor in the Northwest Republic.
He knew that there were many masters in the Northwest Republic and the Church of Void Mask. But they didn’t have a Dead Soul Army like him! Ha ha!
Ashes Woods had the world’s richest resource of the Dead Souls. Although most of them were only skeletons of the lowest rank, they could work as a labor force.
The skeleton was weaker than a living person, and even an ordinary farmer could knock it down in one blow. But when it came to working, a skeleton was much better than a farmer. The farmer needed to eat and rest, but the skeleton could work all day long by adding magic to it and regularly repairing it.
Of course, in the daytime, skeletons would be damaged by the positive energy contained in the sunlight, but this was not difficult to solve. We would have the skeletons work at night.
Ashes Woods had negative energy. These skeletons working at night could continuously absorb the negative energy and become stronger!
The more Tu Ya’an thought, the more satisfied he was. He told his sister that he was going out to meet Sui Xiong in the Church of the Void Mask.
He met Sui Xiong and said his plan. Sui Xiong was shocked. He never thought that necromancy could be used in this way. But after careful deliberation, he found that this plan was really feasible.
There were even some additional benefits.
For the pioneers of Ashes Woods, the greatest danger was the attack from the Skeleton Army on the first night of every month. The Skeleton Army actually came from the corpses of every creature that died in the Ashes Woods for so many years. The number of the Skeleton Army was amazing, but if Tu Ya’an, the legendary necromancer, executed his plan, he could turn all the corpses of a large area into skeletons under his control, thereby completely eliminating the danger in that area.
Even just for this purpose, it was worth letting him do it!
After a while, Sui Xiong could not help but frown.
Satan, head of the Church of the Void Mask, was working to purify negative energy for years. His plan was to build a huge Purification Array that would cover the whole of Ashes Woods and transform the forbidden area of life into a beautiful paradise. Tu Ya’an’s idea was good, but it contradicted Satan’s plan.
Sui Xiong favored Satan plan. It was not because Satan joined him earlier, but in the long run, Satan’s plan was clearly more reasonable. It was more suitable for the people to live and work in peace and to restore the properties of the Ashes Woods.
A beautiful Northwest Republic was better than a Northwest Republic with numerous skeleton force.
Who would like to stay with skeletons all day?
He hesitated for a moment and told Tu Ya’an this.
Tu Ya’an was silent. Although his strength was higher than that of Satan, who had not yet entered the Legendary Realm, he understood that His Majesty’s consideration was correct. For the ordinary people of the Northwest Republic, they would not want to spend all day with skeletons even if the skeletons could be a good workforce.
“Sorry, I was inconsiderate,” he said with a deep sigh. “You’re right. Without my sister, I would not have chosen to be a necromancer who played with skeletons all day, let alone ordinary civilians… My idea was still too simple and naive. I’m sorry to have wasted your time.”
When Sui Xiong saw that Tu Ya’an was depressed, he said immediately, “Your idea is very useful. At least in the immediate future, the Northwest Republic needs your plan. As for the future… Who knows? Let’s talk about your plan. Even if these skeletons are not useful in the future, at least they have been useful. Isn’t that right?”
Tu Ya’an then turned joyful and laughed again.
“You’re right. Nobody knows the future. Even if the Northwest Republic does not need me in the future, I can play a role now. It’s better to do something for you now than to do nothing!”
He clenched his fist, and his eyes had a strong light of confidence. He wanted to do something!
He knew that he needed to hurry up and gain some achievements. Time was limited.
