This really was the life. What could possibly beat relaxing while your minions fight your enemies for you? Although slightly inefficient I could just kick back and read some books while my dogs cleared the way for me.

As I was checking my drops from my Afk session I noticed some new drops that I had never gotten before. Why is that? Seeing as there were common loot that there wasnt there before they couldn't have just been too rare for me to get before.

[Loot table updates as the Player advances. This is to prevent the emergence of useless loot.]

What a smart game, if only the games I used to play made this much sense. Looking over the new loot my little doggies had fetched me I was pleasantly surprised.

I did not jump up and kick my heels together like a prospector who found gold. You can't prove anything.

They won't believe you.

This finally meant that I could create humanoid undead without resorting to drastic measures. And it also seems like I can unlock more undead by committing murder in this dungeon. Great.

Immediately I took out the template card, it was a black and green card with the silhouette of the zombie grunt in the middle. When I used it the card dissolved into notes of light and entered my body. After I pulled out the cadaver.

The system wasn't kidding when it said no identifiable features. It looked like the most average man I have ever seen, I don't even know if it is a man seeing the lack of genitalia. Regardless I raised my hand and cast {Create Undead}.

I decided to try raising a zombie grunt.

[Zombie Grunt]

A buff and durable zombie with the IQ of a shovel.

They are good at soaking up damage and performing physically intensive labor. Hard to kill but it is also hard for them to kill with their lacking agility.

On a second thought , I think I will stick with skeletons. I don't want to lug around a big bag of meat around. Casting the spell the corpse decomposed quickly until it became a skeleton and rose up from the ground.
