Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone

The opportunity for a breakthrough is truly here, but despite searching for many years, they haven’t managed to master it.

This time with Fang Zhou joining, they don’t expect Fang Zhou to immediately find the opportunity to break through to Gold.

However, with one more companion to comprehend together, there is just that much more chance for a breakthrough.

Thinking this way, Murphite and Uriel each found a direction to sit down with closed eyes, silently comprehending the Undead Rules within the Blood Moon Tide.

Fang Zhou remained silent, while comprehending the Undead Blood Moon Rules, he watched the analysis progress on the attribute panel slowly rise.

According to Murphite’s previous explanation, only when the Blood Moon Tide originates from here does one have the chance to enter the core area of the Death Energy Prism.

And the Blood Moon Tide lasts a long time each occurrence.

Judging from the current analysis progress on the attribute panel, it might be possible to successfully analyze it and have the opportunity to advance to Gold before the end of this Blood Moon Tide, provided the soul power doesn’t run out.

The path to ascend to greater heights is right in front of you.

Fang Zhou, however, felt incredibly calm inside.

Everything fell into place as a natural result of hard work and dedication.

Attribute panel, commence extrapolation!

.........

In the space of Beast Fighting City, ever since the war with the Beastmen ended, the place has become a picture of prosperity.

Desolate Land has now become the hottest gold-prospecting site in the area around Beast Fighting City.

Many people are coming here in search of opportunities to make money.

Many adventurer groups that used to hunt Fierce Beasts in the southern Fierce Beast Mountain Range have now come here to take on missions and earn Magic Stones.

The Jinge Adventurer Team, once having crossed paths with Fang Zhou in the Fierce Beast Mountain Range, is exactly such a group.

They too have come to Desolate Land now.

Most of the members of the Jinge Adventurer Team are female professionals of exceptional looks.

Walking in Desolate Land, they indeed make for a very striking scene.

Many people are stunned and gaze at them in amazement as they pass by.

The members of the Jinge Adventurer Team have already grown accustomed to this.

Moreover, they are now much improved compared to before in terms of ability.

They were also conscripted by Beast Fighting City previously, but they were relatively lucky.

Most team members survived the recent great battle and also gained considerable military merits as a result.

"Are you sure you want to take this mission?"

The staff at the Adventurer Association branch in the camp inquired at the window.

"Yes, we are sure." Team leader Yang Qinglu nodded.

Upon hearing this, the staff nodded, picked up the stamp and forcefully stamped a set of documents on the table.

After stamping, the staff uploaded the qualification of the Jinge Adventurer Team and then handed the mission documents to Yang Qinglu.

Soon after, Yang Qinglu and her party set out from the Desolate Land camp with their respective equipment to complete the mission they had taken on.

Following the dirt roads constructed by the nearby expansion group, the Jinge Adventurer Team moved quickly.

Soon, they arrived at a more desolate region of hills.

Yang Qinglu looked at the map and noticed that there was a Metallurgical Company doing mining and metallurgy nearby.

So, Yang Qinglu gathered her team and pointed at the map, saying, "We’re almost at our destination.

The task requires us to visit all the exploratory points along this route to see if we can discover any information in advance."

"Sister An, is this Blazing Fire Metallurgy Company also one of the mission issuers?" Beast Tamer Xiaoqing stroked her spirit pet, the Black Feather Crow, as she looked at the small point on the map.

"Apparently not, but for this line, these exploratory points have official task assessments and we have to consult for information there."

Yang Qinglu shook her head.

"This place is different from Beast Fighting City after all.

When we previously hunted Fierce Beasts, it was based on the experience of our predecessors.

We knew the general activity areas of various tiers of Fierce Beasts, enabling safe hunting.

Raising her head, Yang Qinglu continued, "Many indigenous tribes used to live here.

Although most have been cleared out, there are definitely some remaining.

They don’t dare to directly attack the exploratory points, but for our small group, it’s still dangerous.

Besides, we are not too far from the Beastman’s original territories; there is no harm in staying cautious."

"Understood! Leader!"

Listening to Yang Qinglu’s explanation, everyone agreed that it made sense.

It was thanks to Yang Qinglu’s caution and prudence that their team sustained no casualties on the battlefield earlier.

Many other adventurer groups suffered great losses, with some even being completely wiped out.

Having no objections, they turned and proceeded toward the Blazing Fire Metallurgy Company.

This Metallurgical Company is also located on a hill, not deviating from their route, so it wouldn’t take too much time.

...

The Jinge Adventurer Team rapidly approached the expansion point of the Blazing Fire Metallurgy Company. Meanwhile, upon entering a certain range, Beast Tamer Xiaoqing furrowed her brow.

Noticing this, Yang Qinglu halted and asked, "What’s wrong, Xiaoqing?"

"I feel as though someone is watching us."

Xiaoqing, being a Beast Tamer and a type of caster, possessed natural instincts and outstanding perception.

Yang Qinglu nodded, saying, "That’s not surprising; we are close to the mining area of Blazing Fire Metallurgy Company.

Perhaps it’s just their Guard Array’s reconnaissance. Let’s not display aggression."

"Understood, Leader!"

Hearing this, the other team members nodded in response.

Meanwhile, on the mountain, Fang Zhou also sensed the message relayed by the Flesh Guards: ten people advancing quickly towards the company on the mountain.

Among them, eight with Black Iron Tier energy fluctuations and two with Bronze Tier.

This power isn’t particularly strong, so Fang Zhou simply instructed his undead creatures to remain on alert and didn’t give it more thought.

The Jinge Adventurer Team ran towards the mountain. It was alright at the foot of the mountain, but upon reaching the mountain, they saw many Flesh Guards burning with Soul Fire.

This scene caused Xiaoqing to frown and feel an uncontrollable aversion inside.

As a Beast Tamer, she revered nature and had an innate dislike for these Undead creations.

Someone in the Jinge Adventurer Team was shocked, saying, "Are these Undead creations?

Or products of Alchemy of Flesh and Blood?"

Yang Qinglu, with a grave expression, shook her head and said, "I’m not sure.

But the mana fluctuations they carry seem much stronger than those at the Bronze level.

The creator of these... even if not an Undead Mage, would surely be a formidable Silver level Alchemist.

Everyone must not act rashly to avoid misunderstanding."

Though she said this, Yang Qinglu also speculated within her heart.

Over recent times, there’s been only one Undead Mage who made a prominent mark and quickly gained fame in Beast Fighting City, and that’s Fang Zhou.

This Undead Mage previously crossed paths with them just once, back then merely a Black Iron student at Sea City Military Academy.

At the time, a Dark Attribute Demon Spot Fierce Tiger they had their eyes on escaped their encirclement, eventually falling to Fang Zhou.

Its skin and Fierce Beast Crystal Core were collected by Fang Zhou.

To help the Jinge Adventurer Team’s Beast Tamer Xiaoqing’s spirit pet, the Black Feather Crow, break through, Yang Qinglu sought out Fang Zhou.

Exchanging a Bronze-level Flame Attribute Fierce Beast Crystal Core for the Demon Spot Fierce Tiger’s Fierce Beast Crystal Core.

Initially, she thought their encounter was fleeting, just another genius student from the military academy.

As seasoned adventurers mixed up in Beast Fighting City, every year they’d seen ten or so genius students from the academy.

Unexpectedly, the stories about Fang Zhou coming to their ears were more and more unbelievable.

First, he encountered an ambush by the notorious Fox Tail Bandit Group. Not only did he escape unscathed, but he summoned military reinforcements, annihilating 18 bandits in one go, earning immense rewards.

Later, it was heard that after breaking through to Bronze, he participated in Beast Fighting City’s military operation against the Demon Worshipers Sect, earning numerous merits.

Then, he participated in the military operation in the Northern Wilderness, resisting three Great Demons’ champion power projections during the Demon Tower siege.

From that point on, Yang Qinglu and her team were utterly outdone by the unfolding events.
