After Lin Jin regained his composure, his deep, penetrating gaze turned to Uther.
"Uther, there are still many members of the Silver Hand Order buried here. Can you awaken them?"
Ever since Uther's resurrection, the Soul-Reaving Scythe Knights had followed him, and Lin Jin was naturally quite fond of them.
If Lin Jin were to use Soul Summoning, it would require souls. But if Uther did it, perhaps it wouldn't be necessary.
The Silver Hand Order was founded by Uther, and he was the leader of the Order. Even as the dead, the undead would only wish to follow their former master.
"I can sense the souls resting here. Some of these bodies can be revived as undead and return to the world!" Uther replied respectfully.
Even if Lin Jin hadn't mentioned it, Uther would have still awakened the undead here.
"Well then, go ahead and awaken them!" Lin Jin nodded, transferring the command of the Terror Knights to Uther, allowing them to benefit from his leadership.
He now possessed the rank of a Legendary Unit, and his strategic core had shifted accordingly. As a qualified leader, he could no longer control every army in each battle. He could only direct the generals commanding the troops.
Earlier, his foundation had been weak, requiring meticulous micromanagement, but now that was no longer needed.
"Yes, Master," Uther nodded. He gripped his great sword and pushed open the large door, stepping into the first room on the right side of the corridor.
His eyes, as dark as ink, scanned the entire room like an endless abyss, but eventually, he stepped back out.
The Silver Hand members in this room had shattered souls and broken bodies, unable to be revived.
The first room on the left side of the corridor contained bodies that were somewhat intact.
Under Uther's Soul Summoning, they transformed into 12th-tier Terror Knights, rising once again.
Uther paid no mind and moved to the second room on the right, then to the second on the left, the third on the right, and the third on the left.
Finally, upon reaching yet another room, Uther showed a satisfied expression and became more serious.
"Awaken, become immortal undead, and continue to fight for me!"
Uther raised his great sword, and a dark aura filled the room.
Soul Summoning!
But this was not the standard Soul Summoning; it was Uther's unique Necromancer's Soul Summoning, capable of awakening knights and transforming them into Death Knights.
As the strongest Paladin in life, he would become the strongest Death Knight in death!
Black mist engulfed the corpse, and within the mist, skeletal bones could be seen, followed by a crimson glow that resembled flames burning through the black fog.
A battle horse's neigh echoed, the black mist dissipating to reveal a knight riding a skeletal warhorse, wielding a massive scythe.
Unlike the Terror Knights, the skeletal warhorse was covered in spiked black iron armor, making it look fierce and formidable.
The knight wore no heavy armor except for vital parts, and his face was hidden under a black hood, with a tattered cloak floating eerily behind him.
Especially the giant scythe he held, which emitted an eerie glow.
This was the 14th-tier Soul-Reaving Scythe of Death!
The Soul-Reaving Scythe of Death was the herald of death, the embodiment of the apocalypse, with a scythe imbued with the power of the Spider Goddess. It was said that wherever the Soul-Reaving Scythe of Death passed, death would follow like a shadow.
The Spider Goddess was a divine projection of death from Yasha, and with the added power of the Spider Goddess, the Soul-Reaving Scythe of Death was an incredibly formidable combatant.
This was the most elite of Paladins, the only type capable of transforming into such a unit!
After transforming a Soul-Reaving Scythe of Death, Uther moved on to the next room.
When he had transformed all the corpses in the tomb, Uther had gained 10 Terror Knights, 3 Soul-Chilling Specter Knights (13th-tier), and 1 Soul-Reaving Scythe of Death.
Seeing these high-tier units, Lin Jin was satisfied but still somewhat regretful.
When Uther was first resurrected, there had been a small squad of Soul-Reaving Scythes, but now he could only resurrect one. It was a stark difference.
However, Uther's revival had originally been influenced by the power of the undead, and all the Silver Hand corpses in the tomb had also been affected, which allowed for the transformation into the Soul-Reaving Scythe.
Now, Uther had managed to resurrect 3 Soul-Chilling Specter Knights and 1 Soul-Reaving Scythe of Death, which was already quite remarkable.
These were four Legendary Units!
"Master, I found a treasure in one of the rooms," Uther returned, bringing a treasure to Lin Jin.
"Cursed Leggings!"
Cursed Leggings (Low Tier): Part of the Cursed Set, imbued with dark, evil power. It is said that ordinary people who wear these leggings will have their vitality slowly drained.
Defense +1
Strength +1
The final piece of the Cursed Set had been found during the search, completing the set at last.
Lin Jin had originally thought that the final piece would be found in Uther's tomb, but to his surprise, it had been found in the tomb of the Silver Hand Knights.
This set, which required significant time and effort to obtain, had now been completed.
Upon equipping the Cursed Leggings, Lin Jin was enveloped by a faint black mist. The individual pieces of the set seemed to merge seamlessly into one, becoming even more refined.
Cursed Set (Low Tier)
Banshee Scream: Automatically releases a Banshee's Scream at the start of battle, reducing the enemy's luck, morale, and unit initiative.
Despair Curse: Inflicts all enemy units with the initial stages of Slow, Weakness, and a Doom status effect, with adaptive effects. (Cooldown: 120 minutes.)
Once the Cursed Set was complete, it did not add extra stat points but did grant two new skills. One was passive, and the other was active.
While the skills weren't particularly strong, they were standard for undead heroes and were most suitable for their use.
For now, the set's benefits were more than enough for the early stages.
