YM778.TV Chapter 44 Flashy
Ethan was confident in his plan, and after thinking for a while, even Hannah began to feel confident. That was right. There was a huge flaw in the necromancer\'s strategy. He had to use mana to revive the zombies, his mana would have to fly from wherever he was to the battlefield, and the mana would revive the corpses. Any mage with good senses would be able to tell the direction the mana would come from. However, few mages could approach the horde of monsters for more than a few moments without getting themselves killed. Hannah was one of them, but since her teleportation required some preparation and concentration, it wasn\'t something she could do.
"I got the gist of your plan, but that will only show us the right direction and not the exact position of the necromancer," Hannah crossed her arms and spoke.
"That is more than enough," Ethan shrugged. "With your power and my skills, we can find him before he realizes that we are planning something."
Hannah finally realized every single part of Ethan\'s plan. To locate the necromancer, Ethan and her won\'t have to do anything complicated. Ethan would just have to capture a zombie and ask Hannah to teleport them to the direction they find. Then, Ethan will kill the monster and pinpoint even more the location of the necromancer. It was simple but effective. However, the longer the distances, the fewer people Hannah would be able to send.
"If you are planning to fight the necromancer alone, then forget it," Hannah declared. "Unless you accept me to go with you, I won\'t accept this plan of yours."
"I don\'t mind," Ethan shrugged and smiled. "There is no way that my big sister is someone who needs protection against a foe that has been hiding for weeks."
"Obviously," Hannah puffed her chest and then declared.
pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ Necromancers were troublesome, but they were nothing in comparison to liches. The current Ethan knew that he would have more than a hard time against a lich. Still, a necromancer was a beatable opponent, even if he faced them alone. Even if the necromancer was someone at the level of the biggest mages in that world. A single strike on the head or heart was enough to defeat them.
Truth to be told, Ethan was even expecting that Hannah would insist on bringing other people with them. Still, it looks like the people she trusted weren\'t at the level where they could be useful in a fight. Besides, she didn\'t want to show much of her powers or of Ethan\'s to others.
"I\'m going to find the people we will need," Hannah declared. "Try to rest a little bit in the meantime."
Ethan nodded at that. However, Ethan himself had some preparations to make, so he couldn\'t stop to rest. Ethan wasn\'t strong enough to cause enough damage on an army of that size and make the necromancer wary of him, so he had to obtain that power before Hannah returned. Since he will the help of several people with Lili\'s power, he could go all out, so Ethan, without a hint of hesitation, put all his points into STR.

"Now I can avoid some damage while focusing solely on attacking," Ethan nodded to himself. "Now, I just need a new skill that will cause a lot of damage in a wide area… a skill that will be highly effective against undead."
Truth to be told, Ethan didn\'t remember having a skill like that. In the past, he only cut down such opponents to minces until they couldn\'t be revived. Brute strength had always been the solution to all his problems on the battlefield, after all. Again, Ethan was left with the feeling that this kind of thought prevented him from finding a viable solution to his power as an Omni Hero.
Regardless, Ethan looked in his memories of the time he used skills that could damage several enemies. Although he forgot to perform them, he couldn\'t lose the memories of the times he used them since those memories belonged to him alone. Fortunately, he quickly recalled one that would seem perfect for that situation. It was a bit flashy for his tastes, but Ethan barely would be able to learn with his current strength.
"I can\'t damage the walls, so I guess I will have to do it on the streets below," Ethan said while looking at the capital and the houses nearby. "Most houses and streets are made of brick, so the damage won\'t spread all that much… at least at the level one. Here comes nothing…"
The walls were fifty meters tall, but despite that, Ethan jumped from there while holding firmly his long sword. If he landed on his legs, he wouldn\'t suffer all that damage, but Ethan wasn\'t planning that. Instead of it, Ethan gritted his teeth and held the grip of his sword with both hands as he fell. When he was just a few meters from the ground, he pushed his sword downward with all his might.
Congratulations! You learned the skill Explosive Impact!

Congratulations! For learning a new ability without help, you received one hundred coins.
All the ground trembled and cracked around Ethan in a ten meters radius. The impact had been powerful enough to make it look as if an elephant had fallen from the skies and created a crater. As if that wasn\'t enough, flames spread from Ethan\'s sword in the same radius soon after the ground cracked. It was an after-effect created naturally in order to damage the foes who manage to survive such explosive attack… However, all that power came with a price. Ethan felt that several bones in his arms cracked a little until both of them began to swell up. As if that wasn\'t enough, the claymore lost three points of durability.

"Well, I should have known…" Ethan sighed.
