Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone-Chapter 562 - 395: Skeleton Centurion, Luxurious Attribute Panel!

After several days of experimentation, Fang Zhou had gradually mastered the various combinations and cyclical uses of the skills on his revamped Skill Panel. He practiced repeatedly, adjusting the timing and sequence of his skill releases to ensure he could maximize their power in actual combat. In terms of sheer combat power, his strength had taken another terrifying leap forward compared to his sparring match with Gu Yueyuan in the ring just a few days ago.

Fang Zhou looked at his Attribute Panel with satisfaction:

Overall, Fang Zhou had become an incredibly powerful and versatile Black Iron-tier Undead Mage.

The trade fair over the past few days had provided Fang Zhou with an excellent opportunity to convert his accumulated gains into practical combat strength. It would likely take another period of accumulation before he could experience such a rapid expansion of power again.

He stood up and turned toward the Concentration Meditation Room. Tonight, he planned to once again take control of his Corpse Clone and conduct a large-scale massacre to further enhance his strength. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Tomorrow would mark the final event of this grand trade summit: the Appraisal Convention.

「Under the Blood Moon, within the Skeleton Hills.」

The air was thick with the scent of decay. The occasional grating sound of bone scraping against bone and deep, guttural roars sent a shiver down one’s spine. Under the protection of a multitude of Skeleton Warriors, the Corpse Clone slowly opened its ghastly scarlet eyes.

For the past few days, while Fang Zhou’s main body had been digesting resources, his clone had been hunting continuously in the center of the Skeleton Hills. With his newfound ability to multitask, he was pushing his time management to its absolute limit.

During this period of hunting, Fang Zhou discovered an important change. Under the Skeleton Lord’s influence, the Skeleton Commanders under its command had all acquired rudimentary intelligence. Intelligence implied memory. Even if this memory was extremely simple, it contained the patrol directions and routes of the Bone Clusters, as well as commands from higher-ranking skeletons.

After devouring the second Bone Cluster, Fang Zhou obtained the patrol routes of several other Bone Clusters from that Skeleton Chiliarch’s memory and immediately set out to hunt them down. Unsurprisingly, with his current strength, crushing these Skeleton Chiliarchs was an effortless task.

Over several days, relying on information obtained from the memories of various Skeleton Chiliarchs, Fang Zhou had wiped out two large units commanded by Skeleton Chiliarchs and more than ten medium units led by Skeleton Centurions. Just devouring these Bone Clusters had caused his Soul Power to surge by several thousand points. This was after he had refined the process, selecting only the most valuable parts for absorption.

However, the time for easy raids was now over.

Because the Corpse Clone’s true enemy had arrived.

There was good news and bad news.

The good news was that Fang Zhou had finally figured out why he gained so little Soul Power from these commanded skeletons.

These Skeleton Warriors, forcibly enslaved by the Skeleton Lord via the Skeleton Soldier Talisman, had been compelled to offer their Soul Fire Cores to their master. After being filtered by the Skeleton Soldier Talisman, a portion of their Soul Power was returned to their Soul Fires, but the crucial Soul Fire Cores were ruthlessly devoured by the Skeleton Lord.
