Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge

"Smiling so happily, it seems the intelligence gathered was correct, kiddo. You really do have a skill or talent for enhancing luck."

Old General Huang sipped his tea unperturbed, glanced at some fellow who wasn\'t trying to hide his excitement, and continued.

"Don\'t you want to try your luck by opening one? Don\'t worry, I\'ll handle any unusual phenomena that arise from opening the origin treasure chest."

After a sip of goji berry tea, General Huang gave a meaningful look to a soldier who had just walked in, and the latter understood immediately and left the room again.

"You\'ve been waiting for me here for quite a while, haven\'t you? When I officially joined the Dragon Academy, my detailed information had already been completely acquired by the officials of the Great Xia Empire, right?"

Soon after entering the Dragon Academy, the military was already assigning him one-on-one tasks, and Zi Liyuan understood that he was being closely scrutinized by the officials of the Great Xia Empire.

At first, he thought it was because of Shen Yurou, especially since those uploaded mechanical drawings were not just about vindicating the Mechanics; they also presented an opportunity for the Great Xia Empire to unify Blue Star.

And Shen Yurou had been coaxed by Lord Zi into signing a Boundary Sea Contract, the contents of which the officials of the Great Xia Empire had roughly figured out.

Therefore, the Great Xia Empire could only handle him with caution because anyone who had signed a Boundary Sea Contract with him was bound by its last clause: if the contract master died, the contracted would share life and death with him!

Zi Liyuan was no pushover, especially since his resurrection in this world of supernatural powers, having been accustomed to life and death since childhood.

Particularly his experiences in the orphanage as a child, having the mindset of an adult, he had seen much darkness.

Those who had been coaxed into signing a Boundary Sea Contract with him were people he valued, his future core team, meant to assist him on his journey to become a lord of the Sea of Realms.

To avoid nurturing ingrates and traitors, of course, he had to invest some careful thought in certain areas.

The Boundary Sea Contract was monitored by the rules of the Sea of Realms, akin to the heavenly laws of the cultivation world.

In the world of cultivation, would a cultivator dare to make an oath to the heavenly laws and then break it?

It was no different from seeking death!

So, Lord Zi waited very calmly for the officials of the Great Xia Empire to come to him. This was also why he had the confidence to start his own arms company and even sought the official support of the Great Xia Empire for collaboration.

However, after the appearance of the Black Dragon\'s Nest task, his original plans changed.

He realized that he seemed to be valued by the officials of the Great Xia Empire, or more specifically, the military.

The Black Dragon\'s Nest task was a probe and a test for him.

To confirm his suspicions, he deliberately hid the information about the three foreign-instigated Resource Islands and quickly raided them, just to see the military\'s reaction.

When General Huang took a seat opposite him, he understood many issues.

"You little scoundrel, you\'ve got the nerve to fleece the military. If it weren\'t for this old man taking a fancy to you, persuading a bunch of old guys, did you think you could still laze around here like a salted fish?"

He had assigned this little rascal two tasks, and both times the kid caused quite a stir.

Clearly, the little rascal was also testing the waters, definitely suspecting something.

So, this time General Huang himself came, ready to have an open and honest talk with the youngster.

After all, not only was the kid incredibly valuable and had astounding potential, but Shen Yurou, whom he had tricked, was also similarly precious and might even affect the entire Blue Star landscape in the future.

Such a super talent, of course, had to be cultivated!

"Then I owe you one for holding them off."

Who\'s hitting who is still up for debate; at this moment, Lord Zi was feeling rather bold.

Bone Dragons might be bottom-tier among Fourth Order creatures, not much to look at, but a few hundred Bone Dragon Bosses, even if only capable of hand-to-hand combat, are still a force not to be underestimated.

What\'s more, he had legendary and Epic Boss trump cards. Even if the military came looking for trouble, as long as they didn\'t pull off a major move, minor forbidden spells and the like, he was ready to take them head-on and beat them until they were looking for teeth on the ground!

"You really are slick. Alright, open the chest. Let\'s see your luck, as this will decide the military\'s cooperation model with you in the future."

General Huang had the attitude of, if you want to exploit the military, you\'d better show some real goods, or else things won\'t go so smoothly.

"Just waiting for those words from you, sir. Watch closely now."

Some salted fish, who had been lazing around like Ge You, immediately sat up straight. The half-person-tall blood-colored treasure chest was placed on the coffee table between them.

Lord Zi rubbed his hands, ready to lift the lid of the treasure chest directly.

"Hold on, just like that? Don\'t we need some sort of ritual to increase your luck?"

Watching the kid\'s actions, General Huang was flabbergasted.

Who doesn\'t have a ritual for opening treasure chests? In his youth, when he got an original copy treasure chest, he would fast for three days and pray for the blessings of the goddess of luck before opening it cautiously. Never would he have imagined, this little rascal would go about it so simply and brutally.

"Ritual? That\'s something only cursed folks and Luck Emperors need to worry about."

Do I, Lord Zi, need a ritual?

Don\'t you know the goddess of luck lets me massage her black-stockinged long legs every day?

Do I need those flashy but insubstantial things?

General Huang: (-_-||)... I feel insulted.
