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

Chapter 355 An Explosive Growth In Strength!



—–

Beowulf unleashed his truest power as a beast-kin, summoning the beast spirit of wolves. Beast-kins were capable of acquiring a variety of unique skills to themselves after leveling up and even evolving a lot. However, due to Beowulf case where he was turned into a Subordinate Vampire, granting him an immediate amount of power, when he leveled up he gained even more strength and unlocked his truest potential quicker as a result.

The power of the Beast Spirits was rare amongst Beast-kins, only the strongest ones or those blessed with amazing magical talent capable of channeling their mana and speak with spirits would be able to achieve this. Beowulf was never talented at magic, and even as a Vampire he was still rather bad at using magic.

However, as he awakened several amazing skills through leveling up, including [Lycan Transformation], he was an incredibly mighty Subordinate of the Pure-Blood Vampires, or the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, as Agatha called herself and her fellow vampires governing over the rest of them.

It wasn’t so farfetched to think that he was Agatha’s favorite!

FLAAASH!

Mercury, the giant undead metal slime immediately felt an enormous pressure coming from his target. Beowulf roared like a mighty wolf as the phantasmal and aetheric presence of a wolf spirit emerged over his body, fusing with it, and forming some sort of magical and spiritual armor, enhancing all of his parameters, and granting him brand new capabilities.

However, the reason why he hasn’t used it before was because of his lack of mastery over such art. Overusing this Skill meant that his soul would slowly begin to be consumed by the powerful spiritual energies which required large quantities of power to maintain themselves. Beowulf had a rather low amount of Mana, and due to Maria’s presence, most of his Mana was already completely dry. The only option he had was his soul.

As the lap dog of Agatha, he didn’t doubted after he gave him the order. Although initially he still held some sense of self-preservation and hadn’t used this power, when she gave the order, there was nothing he could do. Refuting her was something impossible for the current Beowulf, as his spirit and mind were now completely broken, he was merely a slave of her and her evil and sadistic ways.

“GROAR!”

Beowulf roared with all of his might, unleashing a gigantic shockwave loaded with his life energy and the spiritual power of the Beast Spirit of Wolves, said to protect all wolf beast-kin, and bring their souls to their resting place. Such golden light consumed Mercury’s incredibly dense body, slowly making large chunks of the giant undead metal slime dissipate!

“Guuuu…!”

Mercury cried in pain, attempting to resist the pain of such enormously strong energy. He quickly unleashed all of his magical power and combined the elements he could conjure, which were made from the Skills he inherited from the slimes that made up his rainbow body. Fire, Wind, Lightning, Darkness, and Ice combined together into a powerful elemental storm, hitting Beowulf with all of its might! Mercury was also receiving the effects of the [Enhance] Soul Grimoire Ability from Veronica, enhancing his stats further.

BOOOOMM!!!

The elemental magical attack hit Beowulf strongly, but the mighty wolf man was left almost unscathed by it. His body seemed completely fine as the smoke of the elemental explosion dissipated, his claws suddenly grew large and golden, emanating spiritual power. He leaped into the air and flew down against Mercury, hitting him with his claws and tearing him apart into smaller pieces which were easier to deal with!

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

“Gyyyyuuuu…!”

As Maria fought against Agatha, she could hear the screams of Mercury. He was a very young Undead. Despite knowing that Undead were made to be disposable soldiers most of the time, she had given him a name after all. It was painful to hear him in such pain, especially because he was so strong defensively. Whatever power Beowulf had, it seemed to be able to easily ignore a large part of Mercury’s incredible physical defenses.

“Mercury!” Maria cried, quickly dividing a part of her body into a swarm of flies.

The swarm of flies flew towards Beowulf, and suddenly distracting him for a few seconds before the powerful spiritual light of his body were to fend off the flies, as Maria used another part of her body, a second clone, to conjure [Undead Heal] countless times over Mercury, quickly recovering him up! Maria quickly got an idea to make Mercury resist better.

Thanks to her amazing Mana and Health Drain abilities and Agatha having so much Mana to drain, she simply decided to constantly heal Mercury. Her second phantasmal clone flew inside of Mercury’s body and possessed it, meddling with his body. This way it could be protected by him and at the same time, constantly heal him.

FLASH!

Mercury felt his body regenerating rapidly, as he leaped into action once more. His metallic body quickly decided to use special moves that it did when it was a living Metal Slime King, such as hardening his metallic body to deal great amounts of damage! With this memory clear on his soul’s mind, Mercury attacked Beowulf, shapeshifting his body into enormous metallic and hardened pillars that flew against the beast-kin man!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Beowulf’s reflexes were good, despite being showered with curses from Maria’s phantom clone in the form of a swarm of flies, he seemed mostly unaffected, even her Gorgon Eyes had a very lesser effect and could only paralyze him for a split of a second before he were to break out of it, the powerful petrify was useless as he was easily regenerating new skin, destroying any surface turned into stone. And poison and other ailments such as confusion were completely useless, as Vampires were resistant or even immune to them. Maybe Confusion could have worked in the past, but now that he was brainwashed by Agatha, he couldn’t be easily brainwashed again by someone else.

“ROOARRR!”

BOOOM!!!

Beowulf’s fists clashed against Mercury’s metallic pillars, shattering them into pieces as if they were as feeble as glass!
