Undying Warlord

After Oliver’s team questioned everyone whether they had procured ability crystals or not, the final result was much better than expected.

“47 Survivors have yet to procure their ability crystal. Should we lead them to the second floor? There are more than enough imprisoned zombies separated in the patient wards.”

Oliver’s idea was good, and with the Kobolds’ weapons killing a single unleveled zombie would be easy for the new survivors.

There was nothing for Dilan to add, which was why he gave Oliver the authority to go ahead with his plan.

Even if he had just crowned himself the leader of their group, Dilan knew that he had yet to gain the trust of everyone, let alone their unwavering loyalty.

Furthermore, it was not as if he could take care of everything all by himself.

He was only one person and not a machine that worked 24/7.

As such, sharing his burden with the others was the easiest to show that he trusted them.

His trust was not infinite, but it was enough to give them specific responsibilities.

What he planned was to give everyone certain occupations, and roles that would make it much easier for their life within the hospital to function.

But even then, the most important to survive was strong, which was why Dilan required time for himself.

He had to talk to the nurses in order to figure out the easiest way to lethally injure himself along with ways of healing as quickly as possible as well!

Other than that, there were still the Ancient Paths of Advancement, which he wanted to take a look at first!

Because he was curious about the Paths of Advancement, he quickly checked it out._-.

Dilan spent more than ten minutes staring at the Ancient Paths of Advancement. He was unmoving and looked like a petrified statue.

“Hmm…I knew that I wouldn’t be able to get an occupation that has to do with leadership, but what the hell are those occupations?!”

Dilan felt like complaining because the eight occupations were a little bit more unique than he expected. Well, if he were to be honest, only three out of the eight names sounded cool to him.

All occupations seem to have some sort of relation to Dilan, which proved his theory about the compatibility one required to get a proper occupation.

However, it was especially three occupations that bothered him the most.

“Suicide Warrior…Necromancer and…Kirak’s Vassal?? Who the hell is even Kirak?…”

Dilan knew what a Necromancer was. This was kind of easy to describe; an existence that used dark energy, or some sort of witchcraft in order to revive the dead. Afterward, they would turn into the Necromancer’s subordinates and obey his or her orders.

This was certainly advantageous if one wanted to build up a large army of Undeads before conquering places such as the Rian mountainside hospital.

After all, it wouldn’t even matter if the Necromancer’s army would die because they were already dead, to begin with.

Interested in this occupation, Dilan began to wonder if he had received the opportunity to choose this occupation because of the message he received when he obtained the Origin ability.

“What was it again…something like ‘Unwilling to succumb to the Lord of Death of the Abandoned Lands’…I think? Is that why I received the opportunity to choose to become a Necromancer?”

Dilan was simply mumbling to himself, while trying to understand better but some Survivors, who walked past him, were able to hear what he said.

They looked at Dilan in confusion before averting their attention.

It was better not to question whatever Dilan was going to do after all!

Choosing to become a Necromancer would probably be the most helpful, considering that the occupation ‘Suicide Warrior’ sounded very…suicidal.

Now that left him only with ‘Kirak’s Vassal’. It was mysterious, something that was neither graded nor an occupation that gave Dilan the faintest hint to what exactly it was about.

However, even then, it seemed to be higher ranked if Dilan had understood the Ancient Paths of Advancement properly!

‘The Essence I gained after reaching level 10 is probably the equivalent to the percentage stated in front of the individual occupations.

That means I would require more Essence to choose Occupations with a higher grade?’

The principle behind the Ancient Paths of Advancement seemed quite simple. The higher the grade of an occupation the more Essence was required to actually choose it.

Because of that, one could easily decipher which occupation ought to be the strongest.

‘So Kirak’s Vassal is the strongest? Followed by the occupations Necromancer, Suicide Warrior and so on…’

Dilan had stopped saying everything that came to his mind out loud.

However, that didn’t help him in figuring out which occupation he was supposed to work towards.

A Necromancer was certainly powerful, and it would make him near invincible. But that would be the case if he were to utilize Necromancy properly in combination with his Regeneration Origin ability followed by being adept at fighting in close combat.

The biggest issue for most Necromancers was that they were considered as weak.

At least, that was how it had always been in the games he played, and the novels he read.

The Necromancers there were extremely powerful but quite easy to kill once their army of dead had been exterminated.

But that wouldn’t be the case for Dilan, which was something that intrigued him quite a bit.

Yet, even then, Dilan’s biggest curiosity was in the Occupation that had an unknown grading, and a weird name which left him clueless about everything.

The progression bar was still at 0% as well which should be impossible because there was already some Essence in his Essence pool.

As such, the progression bar should show a little advancement at the very least, even if it were to be far less than the Necromancer’s progression bar!

Kirak’s Vassal interested him the most, especially because it was not graded, and had not progressed even a tiny bit.

This could have multiple reasons, with one being that only higher graded Essence advanced the progression bar of the Kirak’s Vassal occupation.

It was not unlikely, but the more likely reason was that the zeros after the decimal were simply too many.

Dilan thought that Kirak’s Vassal required manifold times more Essence than the Necromancer occupation.

If that were to be true, it was quite obvious which occupation he would choose.

Of course, it would be the one with the highest potential as the future development of the occupation would definitely widen the gap between the occupations even more.

With that in mind, Dilan decided to accumulate more Essence soon enough.

But before he would focus on accumulating more Essence, and hunting all kinds of different monsters to increase his status at the same time, Dilan wanted to find the nurses.

Looking around, he found Ella, the only nurse, who was willing to fight.

Dilan respected her decision a lot. As such, it was even better when he found her next to Kathrine.

He saw that they were working hard on compiling a proper list of all Survivors. It was even more meticulous than Dilan had hoped for.

But that was probably for the best.

The fact that they were working hard for the good of everyone was great, which was why he didn’t want to disturb them a lot.

“Morning. Ella, do you have a moment to spare for me?” Dilan thus asked straightforwardly.

Ella was not sure what Dilan wanted from him. However, because she was not all too busy, Ella nodded her head.

“What is wrong?” Somehow, she was still feeling a little bad for helping Dilan to open the cafeteria doors during the night and slip out not too long ago.

When Dilan had returned he had looked like he barely escaped death. Thus, she felt a little bit guilty about putting him through that.

It didn’t make things better when they noticed that Dilan was able to heal at a rapid pace, and Ella was still sorry about her immature behavior. She should have held back the young man from risking his life.

However, the moment Ella heard Dilan’s next words, her guilt was replaced by disbelief.

“Do you know a way in which I can injure myself lethally, but have the best prospects to heal? Like, is there a specific spot on the body where I can stab myself which would bleed me to death under normal circumstances, but I can heal rapidly if treated for the injury in time?”
