Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone

"Lord Murphite.

Lord Uriel.

I’m out."

Stepping out from the Death Energy Prism, Fang Zhou greeted the arriving Murphite and Uriel.

He now had a much clearer understanding of his current strength.

Facing Uriel and Murphite, he already possessed power enough to completely crush them.

Precisely because of this strength, Fang Zhou could now face Murphite and Uriel with complete calm.

This was the confidence of the strong—everything lay wholly within his own grasp.

Right now Fang Zhou had no intention of harming Murphite and Uriel, because he was fully confident he could draw these two top-tier Undead into his Tomb Territory.

Whether Bone Dragon or Corpse Witch, in the Wasteland of Strife they were absolutely unique—only this one.

Fang Zhou had always valued talent like his own life, so of course he wouldn’t let them go.

"Lord Blood Spirit, congratulations on advancing to Gold.

Lord Blood Spirit actually managed to break through the constraints of this realm and ascend to Gold."

His mood somewhat complicated, Murphite gave a slight show of his shock, while also expressing a bit of his respect for Fang Zhou, this strongest being in the Wasteland of Strife.

Uriel, however, didn’t have that many thoughts.

Appearing before Fang Zhou, the Bone Dragon asked somewhat urgently, "Fang Zhou, you’ve already advanced to Gold—when can you help me with another enhancement?"

Now that Fang Zhou possessed sufficient strength, those little shady thoughts Uriel had once harbored naturally collapsed.

However, as long as they weren’t enemies, Uriel still had hope of obtaining Fang Zhou’s help to break through the upper limit of the Silver Tier.

"As you can see, Lord Uriel."

Fang Zhou spread his hands and said, "I’ve already used my Talent to raise my own strength and can’t use it again in the short term.

But giving your skeletal body a bit of minor enhancement is still within my reach.

As for helping you break through to Gold, I’m afraid that’s not something I can do for now."

Uriel felt a bit disappointed.

Fang Zhou’s reluctance to use his Talent to boost it might be an excuse.

Or it might truly be as he said—that after advancement, his Talent had already been consumed to elevate his own power and couldn’t be used again for a while.

Uriel leaned more toward the latter.

In the Era of Myth, all things had to follow the law of conservation of mass-energy.

Only this reason could explain why merely breaking through to the Golden Tier had caused Fang Zhou’s strength to skyrocket to such a terrifying level!

Uriel found it a bit regrettable, yet didn’t dare lose its temper, only gazed at Fang Zhou with intense expectation.

Fang Zhou as he was now was no longer someone it could casually compel.

Looks like this big fish had taken the hook.

Fang Zhou gave it a reassuring look, then turned to glance at Corpse Witch Lord Murphite.

"Lord Murphite, Lord Uriel.

As the Tomb’s Undead Lord, I sincerely extend an invitation to you, the guardians of the City of Strife.

I invite you to join my Tomb Territory, to together become guardians of the Wasteland of Strife and even the Undead Realm."

Hearing Fang Zhou’s words, Uriel merely fell silent, while Murphite’s Soul Fire rippled violently.

He had already been aware of the agreement Fang Zhou and Bone Dragon Uriel had made earlier.

Uriel would help Fang Zhou break through to Gold, and Fang Zhou would primarily use his Talent to help Uriel raise its strength.

Though this was merely a relationship of interest, in essence Murphite and Uriel too were only in a relationship of利益合作.

The peace and stability of the City of Strife were their shared pursuit.

When enemies invaded, Uriel would help him fend them off, guarding the City of Strife.

And as a Corpse Witch Lord skilled in research, his results on the Undead Blood Moon Will would be shared with Bone Dragon Uriel in ordinary times.

But now this balance had been broken.

At this moment Murphite felt a bit agitated inside.

He was just a Corpse Witch who liked doing research; for the sake of having more time and energy to投入到研究中, he had responded to the call of the Undead Blood Moon Will and taken up the duty of guarding this City of Strife.

Yet he’d had to face invasion from Abyssal Demons again and again, as well as the wolfish ambitions of other powerful Undead Lords.

Originally, not long ago they had just wiped out an Abyssal Demon expeditionary force, and had welcomed the addition of Blood Spirit, this Undead Lord who seemed relatively honest.

Who would have thought this Blood Spirit’s Talent was so powerful he actually ascended to Gold.

Now he even wanted to reverse roles and invite him to join his Tomb Territory.

Murphite just wanted to do his research quietly—why did they have to make him go through all this!

Still, in the Undead Creatures’ world, the strong were revered.

If he outright refused Fang Zhou, this sole Golden Undead in the Wasteland of Strife, it would likely provoke his anger.

Thus, after a period of silence, Murphite asked, "May I ask, Lord Blood Spirit, what do you need me to do if I join the Tomb Territory?

You have now successfully broken through to Gold and are already the most powerful Undead Lord in the entire City of Strife and even the Wasteland of Strife.

With or without one more of me, what difference does it make?"

Fang Zhou’s answer would directly relate to Murphite’s safety.

If Fang Zhou wanted merely to form a loose alliance, Murphite would still have room to maneuver;

if it was to enslave these Undead powerhouses and make them serve the Tomb Territory, then Murphite had to prepare himself mentally to become Fang Zhou’s enemy!

Fortunately, Fang Zhou’s reply allowed him to breathe a sigh of relief.

"The City of Strife is a place of Undead peace—on this point, the Blood Moon Will bears witness; it will never change.

I wish to invite the two of you to join the Tomb Territory because I naturally want to share with you the secret of breaking through to Gold.

And Lord Murphite, I’ve heard from Lord Uriel that you’re quite accomplished in the改造 of Undead Units and in research on Undead Authority.
