Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone Chapter 207 - 200: High-Level Blacksmith, Divine Skill [Mage

Hearing this, Shen Hongyu looked at her daughter’s hopeful face, sighed softly, and said, "Fang Zhou, since that’s the case, I will find a way to get you enough Trolls and Life Crystals. You don’t have to worry about it."

Fang Zhou nodded. "Then I’ll have to trouble you, Instructor Shen. However, due to my limited strength, I only need Apprentice-level Living Trolls and Life Crystals."

Shen Hongyu nodded slightly, starting to carefully plan where to find these two relatively scarce resources for Fang Zhou and her daughter. Although she still wasn’t very optimistic about Fang Zhou’s plan, she could see that he had, at the very least, prepared a well-thought-out research proposal.

Whether it succeeds or fails is up to fate. For my daughter’s sake, it’s right to put in more effort and pay a higher price.

At this mont, Shen Ziwei looked at Fang Zhou, pursed her lips, and asked expectantly, "Fang Zhou, if you don’t mind, can I join your research team? If there’s anything you need to do, just let know. I don’t need any remuneration; I just want to be involved in the skeletal regeneration experint. I’m not afraid of how hard or tiring it gets."

Fang Zhou was slightly stunned but agreed to Shen Ziwei’s request after a mont’s thought. Putting himself in her shoes, he understood her current feelings and thoughts. On one hand, she was desperate to participate in the skeletal regeneration research to see if there was any hope for her recovery. On the other, she wanted to do sothing for him to express her gratitude.

Besides, having Shen Ziwei as a research assistant for the skeletal regeneration project would indeed save him so energy. After all, this project concerns her own future and destiny, so she will definitely be extrely dedicated.

Thinking of this, Fang Zhou said to Shen Ziwei, "No problem, Ziwei. I already have two assistants; you’ve probably heard their nas, Bai Xiaochan and ng Hongzhuang. I’ll add you to our research group chat later. The group files contain the research plans and work content. Your main responsibility will be to assist with the research on skeletal regeneration in human Professionals. After I’ve sorted through the information given to by Instructor Su and Instructor Huang, I’ll discuss the specific details of your work with you. Also, your benefits and compensation will be the sa as Bai Xiaochan’s and ng Hongzhuang’s. I hope we have a pleasant collaboration."

"Yes, thank you, Fang Zhou! I will give it my all," Shen Ziwei said, a little excited as she extended her only remaining right hand.

Fang Zhou smiled and shook her hand.

Seeing Shen Ziwei transform from listless to full of fighting spirit and motivation, Instructor Shen Hongyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling even more grateful toward Fang Zhou. No matter the final outco of this project, just finding sothing for Shen Ziwei to do right now, helping her break free from the pain and depression of her severe injury, is enough to satisfy . Of course, if there’s even a one-in-ten-thousand chance that Fang Zhou can actually deduce a skeletal regeneration Skill, that would truly be a blessing from the heavens.

They continued chatting on this topic for a bit before the conversation gradually shifted to Fang Zhou’s cohort of first-year Seed Students.

Shen Ziwei asked curiously, "Fang Zhou, what resources did you redeem from the logistics departnt? I saw in the company group chat that a lot of people were saying you spent a fortune again."

Fang Zhou opened his Space Storage Capsule, took out the resource box he had received, and said with a wry smile, "Besides so Universal Skills, it’s just so Refining Stones and Gemstones. The military academy awarded the No. 1 Seed with three pieces of white, common-quality New Star Equipnt: a Mage hat and two rings. I plan to enhance these three pieces of equipnt to their limit to improve my cultivation efficiency. Unfortunately, I have no confidence in performing the second-level Refinent with Refining Stones and inlaying with second-level Gemstones by myself. I’m currently racking my brain about where to find a Blacksmith to help!"

Upon hearing this, Instructor Huang Qiuyue smiled. "That’s hardly a difficult matter. I happen to have so Talent for blacksmithing and just passed the high-level Blacksmith assessnt. I can’t guarantee the success rate for very High-Tier Refinents and inlays, but I’m quite confident when it cos to the second-level enhancent of white, common-quality equipnt. Fang Zhou, if you don’t mind, I can try enhancing them for you right now. How about it?"

Fang Zhou was taken aback and couldn’t help but ask, "Instructor Huang, can Magic and Support Professionals also take on the Blacksmith Sub-profession?"

"Of course!" Talking about this topic, Huang Qiuyue’s smile beca more pronounced. She nodded and said, "You didn’t think that only Combat Professionals had a Talent for blacksmithing, did you?"

Fang Zhou nodded, sowhat embarrassed. "Yes. I thought being a Blacksmith required using heavy forging tools. I figured Combat Professionals with Strength or Constitution as their Main Attributes would be more suited for the Blacksmith Sub-profession."

Huang Qiuyue replied, "You have a point. In fact, most Blacksmiths are indeed Combat Professionals. As you said, the Blacksmith profession requires the use of heavy tools for forging equipnt, refining it, or inlaying Gemstones. Generally speaking, one does need sufficient Strength and Constitution Attributes to take on the role."

After a slight pause, Huang Qiuyue’s right index finger twitched, summoning a transparent, large hand that radiated a brilliant light. While expertly flexing the five fingers of this transparent hand, she explained with a smile, "However, we Magic and Support Professionals have a very practical Universal Skill called Mage Hand. This Skill can be used from the Apprentice Stage all the way to the Legendary Crown Realm, greatly facilitating our daily lives. You see, Mage Hand can, to a certain extent, convert our Spirit Main Attribute into a proportional amount of the Strength Attribute. Plus, as our Skill Proficiency increases, our dexterity in operating the Mage Hand improves significantly. Once it reaches ’Perfection’ level proficiency, it’s no different from using our own hands."

Hearing this, Fang Zhou imdiately understood. He looked in amazent at the transparent giant hand dancing in the air of the reception room, as agile as a butterfly flitting among flowers. In that instant, he realized how the gentle Light Priest, Instructor Huang Qiuyue, could also be a Blacksmith.

I see. So Instructor Huang must be using this Mage Hand to wield those heavy tools for forging and enhancent. What a genius idea! To think these inconspicuous Skills could be used in such a way! Fang Zhou marveled.

Rarely seeing the composed No. 1 Seed so full of praise, Huang Qiuyue retracted the Mage Hand and said with a slightly smug smile, "You’re as smart as they say, Fang Zhou. You catch on right away. So, what do you think? Would you like to see how I enhance this equipnt?"

Just then, Su Xinyan, who had been quiet for so ti, chid in, "Our laboratory facilities are quite complete. There is a forging room right next to my alchemy lab."

Seeing that Su Xinyan also agreed, Fang Zhou said to Instructor Huang Qiuyue, "Then I’ll have to trouble you, Instructor Huang. I would love to observe your process."

Everyone stood up and followed Su Xinyan’s lead to the research group’s forging room.

Fang Zhou took out the second-level Refining Stones and Gemstones from his resource box, his heart pounding with excitent. Talk about perfect timing! On his way back to the research group, he had been worried that he didn’t have enough Soul Power for the Refinent and inlaying, which would affect the improvent of his cultivation efficiency. Unexpectedly, he had run into Instructor Huang Qiuyue, a rare Support Professional who was also a Blacksmith. Better yet, out of consideration for Instructor Shen Hongyu and Shen Ziwei, she was willing to help him for free. This would undoubtedly save him another huge expenditure of Soul Power.
