Chapter 774: Chapter 499: Three Major Undead Creations—Tomb War Factory!

Ryze stood empty-handed, a ghostly blue glow emanating from within him. This was the special radiance emitted when soul, Death Energy, and Frost Energy fused.

"Tell me, aside from magic, what else can you do?" Fang Zhou asked.

"Punishment, torture, binding, whipping, bloodletting, crippling, grinding bones, skinning, and soul tearing, my master."

Ryze’s voice was as chilling and sinister as the Skeleton Mage he had previously slain. "The disobedient and captured prisoners, leave them to me! I guarantee none will last a day under my watch!"

Instructor Su Xinyan, standing nearby, nodded in satisfaction and said to Fang Zhou, "He’s responsive and possesses a high Wisdom Ability. Truly a perfect creation."

This was the first time a human Undead Mage on Blue Star had artificially created an undead creature with high-level Wisdom Ability and casting ability. What was even more remarkable was that because his Soul Fire core had been converted from the original Soul Box, he retained a small part of the Skeleton Mage’s soul. This allowed Fang Zhou and the others to gain a more direct and detailed understanding of the Naraku Civilization from him.

Master Sandro and Instructor Su Xinyan continued to question the Skeleton Mage Ryze with keen interest, while Fang Zhou focused his attention on the Dragon Tempered Golden Battleaxe. Such a powerful weapon couldn’t be left unused.

「Several days later」

In the alchemy laboratory, Fang Zhou’s fingertips brushed over the cracks on the chest armor of the Naraku Hate Samurai. It was a lethal wound cleaved open by the Berserker Heroic Spirit.

Master Sandro’s specially crafted Skeleton Melting Agent corroded the energy residue at the fracture, causing foamy bubbles to ooze blackish-red beads of blood.

"Preserve this scar," Instructor Su Xinyan said as she measured the arc of the Dragon Bone Soldier’s spine. "The vengeful obsession of the Naraku Civilization is the best soul catalyst."

When the two carcasses were hoisted above the Nether Iron Melting Furnace, Tiamat’s Death Dragon Breath ignited the furnace fire.

Dragon Forging, commence!

Three different types of energy converged within the furnace: the dark purple runes of the Naraku Civilization, the azure Soul Fire of the Dragon Bone Soldiers, and the blood-colored resentment of the Hate Samurai.

Vigus’s silver hair suddenly plunged into the furnace, precisely plucking out a turbulent strand of energy that was about to run rampant. This was a demonstration of her Death Energy Control, which had grown increasingly powerful after her advancement to the Bronze tier.

CLANG!

The battleaxe lying on the forging table instantly dropped the workshop’s temperature by ten degrees. When Fang Zhou embedded the freshly forged Hate Core into the groove of the axe handle, the Dragon Scale patterns on the axe’s surface suddenly came to life, and the blade burst forth with an aurora of blue and white light.

"Not vicious enough."

Master Sandro flicked out a Frost Realm Blood Diamond, embedding it precisely into the energy hub at the end of the axe handle. The battleaxe instantly erupted with draconic might, pulverizing three skeletal craftsmen into bone dust. However, Su Xinyan swiftly deployed a barrier, confining the Energy Fluctuations to the forging table.

The battleaxe was no longer an inanimate object. The Naraku runes on its surface now vibrated in dangerous harmony with the draconic spells. The initial activation of the fusion nearly caused a disaster.

When Fang Zhou handed the battleaxe to the Dragon Bone Hatred Warrior, the Naraku Civilization’s slaughter program suddenly overrode the control runes. The samurai’s eye sockets burst with blood-red light, and the frost hurricane unleashed by the axe shredded the obsidian target in the testing ground.

"Reversed Scale node on the spine!"

Su Xinyan casually flung out a White Bone Chain, ensnaring the samurai’s left leg at the critical moment. Sandro threw a Frost Core Stabilizer, which expanded in mid-air into an ice crystal cage. Meanwhile, Vigus’s silver hair penetrated the armor’s seams, directly purging the slaughter program.

A mere object was not about to defy its creators. After repeated adjustments, a powerful Dragon Bone Hatred Warrior was finally complete.

BOOM!

When Olaf’s Skeleton Battleaxe collided with the Dragon Tempered Golden Battleaxe, the Protective Barrier of the testing ground visibly distorted. Every cleave from the Dragon Bone Hatred Warrior carried a triple effect: the physical tearing of the Dragon Tooth Axe Blade, the slowing freeze of its Frost Energy, and the Soul Tremble from its Naraku runes.

Olaf’s vaunted Berserker Body showed its first sign of faltering. During the seventh collision, the armor on his left arm completely shattered.

"You’re up," Fang Zhou ordered the Six-armed Snake Demon Warrior standing guard by his side.

Its involvement instantly brought the test to a fever pitch. The six Soul-Breaking Stabbing Swords formed a Suffocating Sword Net, but they were frozen by the Frost Shield before they could reach the Hatred Warrior’s Dragonbone Chest Armor.

The Dragon Bone Hatred Warrior’s battleaxe struck the ground, causing a frost explosion. Three of the Six-armed Snake Demon’s arms were instantly covered in a thick layer of ice. This was the Frost Realm Domain, a power infused with the Ice Dragon Breath attribute.

After this test, Fang Zhou was certain. With the support of the Dragon Tempered Golden Battleaxe and the Dragon Bone Remains, this Dragon Bone Hatred Warrior’s direct combat power now surpassed that of the Berserker Heroic Spirit Olaf and the Six-armed Snake Demon Warrior. It had become the most powerful elite Undead Summoned Creature under his command.

Berserker Heroic Spirit Olaf.

Six-armed Snake Demon Warrior.

Frost Skeleton Mage.

Dragon Bone Hatred Warrior.

Without realizing it, Fang Zhou had amassed a considerable number of elite Undead Summoned Creatures. With the buffs from Fang Zhou’s full set of summoning Skills and the collective power of his Undead Coronation, these elite Summoned Creatures were far stronger than human Professionals of the same tier. They were nearly on par with the Six-armed Snake Demon Lord that Fang Zhou had previously killed.

With these elite Undead Summoned Creatures as the core of his forces, supplemented by the Undead Army and Fang Zhou’s magical saturation bombardments, he could drive any enemy of the same tier to utter despair.
