Chapter 27 Dominate Skeletons, [Simulated Battlefield] Unlocked
Chapter 27 Dominate Skeletons, [Simulated Battlefield] Unlocked
Fangzhou naturally wouldn't hesitate.
As the soul fire was consumed, he seemed to return to the moment when his skeletal clone was illuminated by the blood-red moonlight.
His will seemed to transcend numerous bizarre and fantastical spatial barriers, reaching a vast, boundless, cold, and desolate world.
The main body and the clone merged into one in an instant.
Then, a powerful death energy enveloped the ark.
"Skill [Dominate Skeletons] successfully activated."
【Dominate Skeletons】(Apprentice Level, Proficient): Slightly increases the four main attributes of the skeleton undead creatures under your command. The increase depends on your Spirit attribute and skill proficiency.
Fangzhou nodded slightly. It was another super useful passive skill.
His current skills mainly fall into two categories: summoning and skeletal.
As his strength increased, he was initially worried that the power of [Summon Skeleton] might not be enough.
After all, skeletons are just cannon fodder, and their combat power is far too weak.
With the addition of [Dominate Skeletons], skeletons can now remain in his battle order for a much longer period of time.
Fangzhou casually uploaded this skill to the Human Alliance skill library and received a reward of 100 contribution points.
He then looked at his attribute panel.
[Name] Fang Zhou
[Class] Necromancer
[Rank] Apprentice - Intermediate
[Attributes] Strength 3.9, Agility 3.9, Constitution 3.9, Spirit 6
[Status] Soul Split
[Equipment] Apprentice Mage Hat, Apprentice Necklace, Apprentice Ring *2
[Skills] Skeleton King Meditation (Perfect), Summon Skeletons (Perfect), Skeleton Spears (Master), Skeleton Shield (Master), Skeleton Shackles (Proficient), Control Skeletons (Proficient), Calm Mind (Proficient)
Compared to its initial attribute panel, Ark's four main attributes have more than tripled, and it has learned a total of seven skills, all of which are high-quality skills with a high level of proficiency.
Such remarkable growth in less than a month gives me a great sense of accomplishment.
Fangzhou stretched lazily, contentedly preparing to fall asleep, when his personal terminal suddenly flashed a few times, displaying a notification.
"Ding-dong, Corporal Ark, someone has redeemed the skills you developed: [Bone Spear], [Bone Shield], [Bone Shackles], and [Dominate Skeletons]."
According to the revenue-sharing reward rules, you will receive 20 contribution points.
Fangzhou was slightly taken aback, not expecting that someone would redeem the new necromancer skill he uploaded so quickly.
He originally thought that with fewer than 100 necromancers, it would be a long time before anyone would discover the updates to these skills.
However, it was only 20 contribution points, so Ark didn't take it too seriously.
He yawned and quickly drifted off to sleep.
......
Haicheng Military Academy, Principal's Office.
A beautiful projection appeared in front of Su Tiankuo.
This is a young female military officer with long silver hair and strikingly beautiful features.
"Dad, I just redeemed those new necromancer skills you mentioned."
In addition to the three skeletal skills, there's now a new skill called [Dominate Skeletons]!
What a brilliant idea, such extraordinary talent!
Do you know who developed these skills?
I want to learn from him, or even become his student.
The female officer said excitedly.
Upon hearing this, Su Tiankuo's face immediately darkened.
"Take him as your master? Xin Yan, are you kidding me!"
This person is a first-year student at Haicheng Military Academy, named Fang Zhou.
Lu Hu has been begging me to transfer you back to be his mentor.
Su Xinyan exclaimed in shock, "What?! A first-year student?!"
His understanding of necromancy far surpasses that of those several gold-ranked necromancers.
"How could I possibly be qualified to be someone's mentor?"
Su Tiankuo's eyebrows drooped, and he asked with a sour face, "Is Fang Zhou's talent really that strong?"
"Didn't you always pride yourself on being the most talented necromancer in history? How come you've lost your spirit so quickly?"
Su Xinyan chuckled and said matter-of-factly, "Dad, you're a warrior, you wouldn't understand the ways of mages."
Compared to Ark, a prodigy who can create a completely new skill tree in less than a month after awakening, I only deserve to be called the second-best necromancer in history.
You wait here, I'll report to headquarters and go back to the military academy right away.
I can't wait to see the Ark.
Su Xinyan licked her pink lips, her pupils flashing with an eerie light.
"Tsk tsk tsk, it would be great if we could dissect his brain structure."
Su Tiankuo ignored his daughter's nonsense. He stood up, paced a few steps, and said, "Then Xinyan, you should come back soon. The simulated battlefield for the first-year students is about to open."
At that time, you will be able to test Ark's capabilities up close.
If he can maintain this talent, I'll apply for a necromancer research project for you, with plenty of funding!
Su Xinyan cheered, "Dad was brilliant!"
......
Time flies, and another day off has passed in no time.
When Fangzhou returned to Haicheng Military Academy from the Cloud Welfare Home, he could clearly feel that the atmosphere at the academy was much more tense than before.
This is because the [Simulated Battlefield] will be open to first-year students tomorrow.
The learning outcomes of this month, the level of development of professional skills, the differences in individual combat qualities...
All of these can be differentiated in terms of quality and strength through the open platform of the [Simulated Battlefield].
Needless to say, everyone knows that their performance in the [Simulated Battlefield] determines whether they can make it into the one-in-a-hundred [Seed] list.
The trainees couldn't help but feel nervous and unconcerned.
Fangzhou sat on the bed, making final preparations for battle.
His skills and attributes have reached the pinnacle of what he can achieve.
He has also accumulated a lot of combat skills and practical experience in practical training and sparring with Ye Fan.
The only way to improve it is to buy equipment with real money!
He opened his personal terminal and accessed the equipment exchange interface.
[Apprentice Staff], slightly enhances spell effects, buy it!
[Apprentice Robe], slightly increases defense, buy it!
[Apprentice Cloth Shoes], slightly improves movement speed, buy them!
[Apprentice Gloves], slightly increases skill casting speed, buy!
With 40 contribution points consumed, Ark finally purchased a complete set of Apprentice equipment and activated the [Apprentice Set] set effect: slightly enhances spell effects!
According to the Ark experiment, this set of equipment can improve his combat ability by at least one-tenth.
Considering Ark's superior attributes and skills compared to other students in the same cohort, this improvement is already quite remarkable.
The next morning, Haicheng Military Academy was bustling with activity as the [Simulated Battlefield] was open to new students for the first time, with nearly 10,000 new students flocking to the training ground where the [Simulated Battlefield] was located.
This is a spacious venue specifically built for simulating battlefields, large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people.
Once you enter the simulation pod in the training ground and have the corresponding permissions, you can log in to the [Simulated Battlefield] anytime, anywhere via your personal terminal.
