Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone-Chapter 326 - 265: Supreme Weapon, Su Xinyan Caught by Her Father

Fang Zhou grabbed one of Su Xinyan’s soft, adorable little feet, playing with it in his hand as he cheerfully replied, "Why should I leave? I haven’t had enough of the massage yet."

"Fang Zhou, I’m begging you! I really can’t take it anymore," Su Xinyan pleaded, reaching out to shake his arm with an anxious expression.

"Heh heh, Instructor Xinyan, you’re not holding up very well. You’re a Golden Tier Great Undead Mage! How could a mere apprentice like me make you surrender with just a light touch?"

Su Xinyan was at a loss for words. She silently watched Fang Zhou, who was grinning mischievously.

"How about this? I can leave," Fang Zhou proposed with a feigned look of distress, feeling he had pushed things far enough. "But I’m not satisfied, so you’ll have to compensate me."

"You...! How... how should I compensate you?" Su Xinyan asked in a tiny voice.

"I haven’t decided yet. But if you promise that you’ll be obedient the next time I come to give you a massage, we can call it a day." Fang Zhou pulled Su Xinyan into his embrace, pinching her soft cheek as he spoke.

"You still want to give me a massage?" Hearing this, Su Xinyan’s pretty face flushed, her voice becoming so small it was almost inaudible.

"If you don’t agree, then I’ll just continue massaging you!" Fang Zhou forcefully kneaded her ample chest, posturing as if readying himself for a heated conquest.

Seeing Fang Zhou’s strong and powerful arms, Su Xinyan’s face paled and she hurriedly relented. "Okay, I promise! I promise you! Fang Zhou, please, just leave quickly."

"Heh heh." Hearing this, Fang Zhou leaped off the bed. He pointed to his own lips and said to Su Xinyan, "Kiss me, and this apprentice will wait for you outside."

Su Xinyan sat pitifully on the bed, looking speechlessly at Fang Zhou’s gesture. Finally, with a sense of helplessness, she knelt up and gently kissed the corner of his mouth.

"Good girl, Instructor Xinyan. I’ll be waiting for my reward."

With a complex expression, Su Xinyan watched Fang Zhou get dressed and leave the room in high spirits. She suddenly felt as if she had escaped an abyss, like a survivor of a great catastrophe.

A long while later, Su Xinyan wiped the thin layer of sweat from her forehead, took off her ripped and disheveled silk stockings, and walked toward the bathroom, enduring the tingling weakness that lingered throughout her body.

Sometime later, Fang Zhou was nestled comfortably on the soft sofa in Instructor Su Xinyan’s office, having just finished a tense and exciting match of "Demon Extermination Total War" war chess.

Just then, Instructor Su Xinyan finally emerged from the break room, her movements hesitant and stiff. She noticed Fang Zhou watching her, and her cheeks couldn’t help but flush with a hint of red. To conceal her embarrassment, she took a Crystal Ball that emitted a faint, gray-black light from her spatial storage equipment and gently handed it to him.

As Fang Zhou took the Crystal Ball, his heart surged with joy. He knew this was the Ordinary White-grade Crystal Ball exclusive to Undead Mages that Instructor Su Xinyan had promised to give him.

He carefully examined the treasure in his hand. The Crystal Ball was meticulously crafted from a special, deep obsidian-like material, its surface shimmering with layers of a delicate, gray-black luster. When his fingers touched it, a subtle coolness spread from his fingertips, as if it resonated with the energy of the Netherworld, both invigorating and slightly chilling. This power not only enhanced his understanding of Undead Magic but also made him feel a tighter bond with the Undead Mage Profession. He could sense that this Crystal Ball would significantly improve his Magic, and because of its unique material, it would also effectively reduce Mana consumption during casting, allowing him to last longer in battle.

At this moment, Su Xinyan spoke up. "This Undead Magic Ball was a gift from my father after I broke through to become a Black Iron-rank Undead Mage. It’s made from a special obsidian crystal, a material that has an extraordinary enhancing effect on an Undead Mage’s skills. More importantly, this material has extremely high conductivity for Undead Attribute energy, which can slightly reduce the Mana an Undead Mage consumes when using skills."

She continued to explain, "As an Ordinary White-grade piece of Equipment, it has two very practical effects, which is quite rare for Equipment of its quality. Furthermore, compared to the New Star Series standard Equipment provided by Sea City Military Academy, this Undead Magic Ball has a special enhancing effect on an Undead Mage’s exclusive skills. For any low-level Undead Mage, it can be considered an exceptional weapon. I only stored it away and stopped using it after I was promoted to the Bronze Tier."

Fang Zhou listened intently to Instructor Su Xinyan’s explanation, his gaze quietly shifting to the equipment section of his attribute panel.

[Undead Magic Ball] (White Ordinary, Refinement +2, Level 2 Nether Stone x2): A Crystal Ball crafted from precious Obsidian. It possesses strong conductivity for Undead Attribute energy. Slightly enhances the magical effects of an Undead Mage’s exclusive Profession Skills and slightly reduces the Spiritual Power and Mana consumption for casting them.

Fang Zhou’s eyebrow twitched, and a wave of amazement washed over him. Not only did this [Undead Magic Ball] far exceed his expectations, but Instructor Su Xinyan had even thoughtfully kept the previous Refinement effects and the two precious inlaid Level 2 Nether Stones. This consideration undoubtedly elevated the equipment’s quality by another level.

Fang Zhou slowly reached out, gently stroking the two Nether Stones inlaid on the Crystal Ball’s base. He looked up, his eyes meeting Instructor Su Xinyan’s.

She naturally noticed his intention. Tilting her chin up slightly, she crossed her arms and let out a soft huff, a mix of pride and smugness in her tone. "Consider the Nether Stones and Refinement effects a little bonus. I’ve given you the weapon. Now, don’t you dare disgrace us Undead Mages."

Fang Zhou smiled. Though his tone was calm, his confidence was palpable. "Rest assured, Instructor Xinyan. When have I ever let you down?"

Su Xinyan didn’t say more, instead shifting the topic to the phone call she had received from her father, Su Tiankuo, the Principal of Sea City Military Academy, while Fang Zhou was massaging her. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"Fang Zhou, you heard the call from my father earlier. Based on the current situation, it’s highly likely you’ll be directly selected for the Sea City Military Academy team participating in the new recruit martial arts competition. Moreover, judging by your performance and combat strength, the position of team captain is yours for the taking."

Hearing this, Fang Zhou’s expression remained as calm and composed as ever. "Instructor Su, I don’t think I necessarily need to take the captain’s position."

Instructor Su Xinyan was slightly taken aback, a trace of confusion flashing in her beautiful eyes. "You don’t want to be the team captain? Why? In terms of strength, you’re an Upper Apprentice, while the other members are Middle-Rank Apprentices at best.

"In terms of military rank, you’re the only Senior Sergeant among the first-years. Whether based on strength or rank, you are the most suitable person for the position."

Fang Zhou shook his head, a faint, serene smile playing on his lips. "You’re mistaken, Instructor Xinyan. There’s still some time before the new recruit martial arts competition officially begins. By then, I believe my strength will have taken another huge leap. To be honest, the gap between me and top first-year students like Hongzhuang or Ye Fan is already quite large. Rather than have me lead them, it would be better for them to form their own team while I act alone. After all, as an Undead Mage, I’m a one-man army! That way, I can maximize my individual combat advantage. Regardless of the format or stages of the upcoming competition, our Sea City Military Academy will be guaranteed to achieve an unprecedentedly good result."
