Rogue awakeners
Ryan gazed at the scorching body that's been twitching and asked," what's your purpose here? Who is the one inside the cave? What exactly are you doing? Tell me and I'll give you a swift death. Or I'll make ten times painful ", the vampire laughed and said," you're finished boy. I'm just low ranked vampire. But that person inside has an army. Better run if you want to live. But you can't, he'll chase you along with all the awakeners on first floor then kill you in the most brutal way possible since you tried to stop our plans ".
Ryan looked at her and said," we'll see. Now I'll ask you again. Tell me the information and I'll free you from your suffering ", the girl laughed and said," you're afraid to face the unknown boy. But I won't say a word about anything. Go to hell ", Ryan looked at her and said," then die ", Ryan used the dagger and cut off her head. He then used Gluttony on the corpse.
[ You killed an awakener lv 12 ]
[ Exp +30%, +100 coins ]
[ Gluttony has consumed the soul fragments ]
[ Vitality+3, Agility +3, Mana+3 ]
[ You got the skill - Vampirism (B) ]
Ryan looked at the pouch dropped by the vampire girl. This is if someone has inventory skill. If an awakener is killed the things in their inventory will be dropped at random. Not all loot can be dropped though. The loot will be random from the one with inventory. But if a player has no inventory, then what's on his body is considered loot.
That will allow be dropped. Ryan took the pouch, he opened it and a notification flashed in front of him :
[ You got 5000 coins ]
Ryan raised an eyebrow. It seems this girl has some coins and mo artifacts on her. He thought he could get one. Ryan dived deeper into the cave and saw undead. Skeletons and zombies are crawling in the cave. A necromancer is here. Ryan looked at the undead. He didn't have any light based skills that are effective against the undead.
He only has fire and ice type abilities. He can hold one sometime but if the undead are too much then he may not be able to hold on. Afterall matter how strong he may become he is still a rookie while that's a rogue awakener who has some experience. Getting surrounded may result in a worst circumstance.
Ryan decided to make a choice. He will first try to farm these undead in order to gain exp and stats. He activated Frost Control and sent icicles towards the undead. They're blasted into the skulls of those undead skeletons and zombies but the result made him frown :
[ You killed a lv 3 undead ]
[ +10 coins ]
[ Corrupted low level soul fragments detected ]
[ Corrupted soul fragments are consumed by gluttony to restore peak condition ]
[ The soul fragments are too low level to get stats and skills ]
[ You killed a lv 3 undead ]
[ +10 coins ]
[ Corrupted low level soul fragments detected ]
[ Corrupted soul fragments are consumed by gluttony to restore peak condition ]
[ The soul fragments are too low level to get stats and skills ]
.

They turned out to be low level undead. He cursed himself for being stupid enough to not use the eye of insight on these monsters. If they're low level undead then it's not bad for a farm. Although he won't exp, he will get coins. He looked at those undead with a glint in his eyes.
Good money bags. He used the frost control to kill all these skeletons and zombies. Ryan killed the undead one by one and moved to the deeper layers. The undead also became stronger but then stopped at level 6. Their levels didn't increase after that. Ryan ran deep into the cave and found some corpses.
He stopped and wanted to go there but then he felt a disgusting feeling from them. He activated his eye of insight and looked at them :
[ Corpse explosion trigger body ]
[ Corpse explosion trigger body ]
[ Corpse explosion trigger body ]
These bodies are unawakened dead people who are killed and infused with dark mana. He ignored these bodies and go deeper into the cave. He found many bodies like that and with eye of insight he is able to evade all those corpse explosion bodies. As Ryan ran deep into that cave, he felt more and more eerie and ominous.
As he is thinking he saw a weird purple and red glow. Getting closer he saw some awakeners being held like prisoners with undead holding them so they couldn't escape. There is a huge ritual circle in the middle with a hooded man who covered his head. Ryan used the mask he got from one of the treasure chests in the cave :
[ Ghost Mask of whispers
Rank : D
Effects :
- conceals your identity
- can change your voice
- can change your hair and eye colour ]
It's a complete white mask with 2 black lines on both side of cheeks. Ryan activated vampirism. He grew fangs, and his eyes have red colour. Vampirism is a temporary skill that changes him to a vampire for short amount of time. It won't change him into vampire completely. Additionally unlike original vampires he has no weakness of sun, wood and silver. Fire affects him like it does with all awakeners.
But this transformation will not be as strong as a real vampire. Ryan didn't care though, with his stats he can close the gap if he encounters a real high level vampire in future. He looked at the necromancer drawing the ritual circle, Ryan transformed into a bat and flew towards the awakeners.
He landed on one of the skeletons while it didn't seem to react to him. He whispered to the awakener," I'll bite the ropes and free you all. Escape from here ", the awakener looked at the bat in shock. She nodded and whispered to the awakener on the right.
The awakeners all got the news and looked at Ryan who is in bat form biting the rope. They turned around and gazed nervously at the necromancer who is immersed in drawing the ritual circle.
