Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone-Chapter 71: The Undead Legion of the Skeleton Clone

Chapter 71: Chapter 71: The Undead Legion of the Skeleton Clone

Of course, the number of skeletons that the "Skeleton Monarch" can enslave is limited by Fang Zhou’s four-dimensional attributes.

After enslaving Fu Yi, Fang Zhou already had a clear feeling.

He can currently enslave up to 35 skeleton warriors with four-dimensional attributes not stronger than his own.

The Undead Calamity is just a fantasy for the current Fang Zhou.

But at the very least, he can patch together a Skeleton Battle Group!

...

Four hours passed.

Crack!

Crack!

The soft and orderly footsteps echoed over the Burial Wilderness.

In this land filled with desolation and deathly silence, a group of skeleton warriors was marching forward.

This group of skeleton warriors numbered a little over twenty.

The skeleton at the front had sturdy bones, armoured body, and wielded a nearly two-meter-long skeletal long spear pointing at the ground.

This was the skeleton clone that fought tirelessly through the night.

Behind it, the slightly slender skeletons either held two-handed greatswords, or carried great shields, or wielded giant axes.

They constituted the initial form of the Skeleton Battle Group under Fang Zhou’s command.

That night, whenever they encountered skeleton warriors, he would rush forward with his underlings, beat them down, then enslave and subdue them!

Once he had the first underling, capturing the second became much easier.

With the second underling, the third was even easier to subdue.

This was a positive cycle.

As time passed, the number of skeleton warriors under Fang Zhou’s command grew.

Eventually, whenever a skeleton warrior was found, Fang Zhou didn’t even need to make a move; his skeleton warriors would charge forward immediately, bring it down, and leave it to Fang Zhou to enslave and subdue.

The twenty-something skeleton warriors spread out grandly.

Added to Fang Zhou’s own strength, far surpassing that of ordinary lower Black Iron skeleton warriors, he felt confident to explore deeper.

However, the fatigue deep within his soul restrained Fang Zhou’s desire to keep exploring.

Looking up at the blood moon in the sky, Fang Zhou found a safe corner and shifted his mind back to his actual body.

What was a bit disappointing for him was that without focusing his mind on the skeleton clone, these skeleton warriors he enslaved would be in standby mode and unable to act on their own.

This temporarily shattered Fang Zhou’s dream of "idle leveling."

It was already very late, and there was an oath-taking meeting for the cave hunting tomorrow.

As usual, after drinking a bottle of Soul Calming Potion, Fang Zhou went back to the dormitory for a deep sleep.

... 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Early the next morning, Fang Zhou followed the personal terminal’s prompts to a meeting room.

He wasn’t particularly early; Ye Fan, Meng Hongzhuang, and others were already there.

Bai Xiaochan was not present; as a support profession, she had different assessment criteria.

As Fang Zhou walked into the meeting room, Meng Hongzhuang’s eyes brightened and she quickly tiptoed to wave at him.

Fang Zhou walked over, glancing around briefly, noticing that besides Meng Hongzhuang, he only recognized a few others like Ye Fan, Gu Zhiqiu, Zhao Yuan from the company.

But that was normal.

For the past two months, he had been engrossed in cultivation, mostly operating between two points, and had hardly participated in freshman social activities.

Unlike Bai Xiaochan, a social butterfly who knew people in every unit.

After chatting briefly with Ye Fan and others, all 180 candidates for the seed list, both combat and magic professionals, had gathered.

Soon, Instructor Lu Hu took the stage.

He cleared his throat, and the once noisy meeting room quickly quieted down.

These elite students held their breath, listening intently to Lu Hu’s explanations.

"Students, standing here means you’ve performed excellently on the simulation battlefield, as the elites among Sea City Military Academy’s current freshmen.

First, I want to congratulate you all."

Lu Hu gazed around the meeting room with a solemn expression and said in a deep voice, "However, it’s unfortunate that Sea City Military Academy only has 100 seed spots.

Next, half of you will be eliminated.

I hope you’re mentally prepared for this."

The atmosphere in the meeting room instantly tensed up.

Many students, not confident in their own abilities, looked tense and clenched their fists silently.

They had exerted great effort to stand here and could not afford to be eliminated!

However, the few widely acknowledged powerhouses like Meng Hongzhuang, Ye Fan, and Gu Zhiqiu remained calm and composed.

They were confident that as long as they performed normally, they would surely be on the seed list.

As for Fang Zhou, he looked exceedingly serious.

After all, securing the number 1 seed position would greatly accelerate his growth, something he could not take lightly.

Although almost everyone believed Fang Zhou had a 99.99% probability of securing the number 1 seed, wasn’t there still an extremely slim chance of it not happening?

Feeling the heavy atmosphere in the meeting room, Lu Hu nodded in satisfaction and continued, "Perhaps some of you are still unclear about what the seed position at the military academy specifically represents?

Here, I can clarify for you all!

The most important point is that once confirmed as a seed of the military academy, your permission will be elevated to E-level.

In addition, depending on your ranking, you can enjoy up to a 40% discount and a maximum loan limit of 1,000 contribution points at the military academy.

Skill insights, high-tier equipment, attribute potions, concentration arrays...

All sorts of cultivation resources are available, enough to rapidly elevate your strength to the Black Iron level."

Upon hearing Lu Hu’s detailed introduction, the previously somber meeting room suddenly became lively.

The students present all looked forward with eagerness and silently resolved themselves.

With this chance to climb higher right before them, they would do everything possible to succeed without regrets!

Even Fang Zhou, a big tycoon, was quite tempted.

He was eager to elevate his permissions; with E-level permissions, he could exchange for Black Iron level skills far more powerful than the apprentice-level ones.

Although due to realm limitations, he couldn’t learn them himself at the moment, there was no issue for the skeleton clone.

On the stage, Lu Hu continued, "Let’s take the number 1 seed as an example.

If you can secure the number 1 seed, during your time at the military academy, you’ll enjoy an interest-free loan limit of 1,000 contribution points and a 40% discount.

Moreover, the academy has prepared extremely generous one-time rewards.

Including 300 contribution points!

Three pieces of common white-quality equipment!

Four bottles of apprentice-level attribute secret medicine!

One invaluable spatial storage treasure!

And a number 1 seed medal that can specify an enchantment!"

With each reward name spoken by Lu Hu, the students’ breaths in the meeting room grew heavier.

Even those like Ye Fan, Meng Hongzhuang, and Gu Zhiqiu, who always considered themselves superior, couldn’t help but feel the same way.

A great man is born to stand above others and stay there for long!

Yet when they saw Fang Zhou’s calm demeanor, their ambitions quickly cooled as if doused with a bucket of cold water.

With Fang Zhou, this towering mountain, pressuring the competition, the number 1 seed likely had nothing to do with them.
