Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone Chapter 329 - 267: Extreme Enhancement, Alchemist Fang Zhou!

Lu Renjia’s eyes grew vacant as he recalled with a bitter expression, "Later, Fang Zhou told that his Elite Double Axe Skeleton possessed such formidable combat power, rich battle experience, and had mastered so many Berserker skills because it was the final gift from General Ning Feihu’s Heroic Spirit. Then, he had spar with an ordinary Great Sword Skeleton he had casually enhanced. Although I won that ti, I had to exert all my strength, and my stamina was nearly exhausted. By the end of the battle, I was so tired I could barely stand, as if all my energy had been drained."

At this point, Lu Renjia shook his head ruefully. "From that mont on, I understood more profoundly just how vast the gap in strength between and Fang Zhou really was. We were incredibly lucky to have been the first to invite Fang Zhou to team up with us for the Shelter Defense Battle."

anwhile, Lu Yiyi had finished watching the battle footage Lu Renjia sent her on fast-forward, shaking her head in admiration, utterly convinced. Suddenly, a jolt went through her. Her gaze was sharp and intense as she looked at Lu Renjia, speaking rapidly, "Since a top player like Fang Zhou has already sent us a team invitation, what are you hesitating for? Hurry up and accept! We can’t let soone else snatch this powerhouse from right under our noses! Look at the two first-year seed students, Bai Xiaochan and ng Hongzhuang; aren’t they the best examples?"

Lu Renjia nodded, fully understanding Lu Yiyi’s aning. In the past few days, Bai Xiaochan and ng Hongzhuang had stuck closely by Fang Zhou’s side. By teaming with him, they easily secured the top spot on the historical speedrun rankings for the Apprentice Middle Rank Horn Demon Outpost Simulation Battlefield. This achievent had sparked widespread envy, jealousy, and even a bit of resentnt among the students of Sea City Military Academy. After all, for any student, the chance to fight alongside a formidable warrior like Fang Zhou was a dream co true.

Now, with Fang Zhou having advanced to the Upper Apprentice Rank, it was the golden opportunity for Lu Renjia and Lu Yiyi to latch onto this powerful backer. If everything went smoothly, they might, like Bai Xiaochan and ng Hongzhuang, be able to rely on Fang Zhou’s support to experience a teoric rise and taste the supre glory of topping the historical speedrun rankings. At that mont, Lu Renjia’s heart filled with excitent and anticipation as he could almost see his and Lu Yiyi’s nas shining on the leaderboard.

Thinking of this, Lu Renjia quickly opened his personal terminal and sent Fang Zhou a ssage to confirm their plan for a team challenge that night.

[How to Raise a Bystander Male Protagonist] (Lu Renjia): "Boss Fang Zhou, Lu Yiyi and I haven’t used our Simulation Battlefield challenge attempts today. We can team up with you. If it’s convenient, how about we team up for the Shelter Defense Battle tonight?"

At that mont, Fang Zhou, who was attending a course in the Hall of Glory, glanced at the ssage on his personal terminal. He simply replied with a "no problem" emoji before imrsing himself fully in his intense studies once again.

「...」

After class that evening, Fang Zhou once again stepped into the building of the Undead Mage research project group. This ti, Instructor Huang Qiuyue was also present.

"Fang Zhou, you’ve actually broken through to the Upper Apprentice Rank!" Instructor Huang Qiuyue’s voice was full of surprise and admiration. "It’s truly unbelievable!"

Fang Zhou nodded slightly. He had achieved this entirely through his own efforts, so he naturally had nothing to hide.

"Excellent! Excellent!" Instructor Huang Qiuyue praised him repeatedly. "Instructor Su Xinyan just inford that you successfully broke through the bottleneck and advanced to the Upper Apprentice Rank. This ans you can now equip two more pieces of white-grade, Normal-quality equipnt. I knew you would have new equipnt and would need refinent and inlaying, so I ca right away."

Hearing this, Fang Zhou felt a surge of warmth and said gratefully, "Thank you, Instructor Qiuyue. I received a white-grade, Normal-quality Crystal Ball exclusive to Undead Mages from Instructor Xinyan. However, it’s already been enhanced to the limit. I also got a New Star Necklace from the military academy’s logistics departnt. This necklace still needs refinent and inlaying."

As he spoke, he took out an exquisite New Star Necklace from his Space Storage Capsule, along with the Refining Stones and Gemstones prepared by the logistics departnt, and handed them to Instructor Huang Qiuyue.

"I’ve already acquired the necessary Refining Stones and Gemstones from the logistics departnt. If you would be so kind as to assist..." Fang Zhou’s words were full of anticipation.

Instructor Huang Qiuyue waved her hand, indicating he didn’t need to be so formal. "Leave it to ."

With that, she led Fang Zhou toward the forging workshop of the Undead Mage research project group. The workshop was brightly lit, its various forging tools gleaming under the lights. Instructor Huang Qiuyue stood before the workbench, closed her eyes, and muttered a spell. Following her gestures, a giant, transparent white hand slowly materialized. This was her signature skill, "Mage’s Hand."

Under Instructor Huang Qiuyue’s control, the "Mage’s Hand" picked up the forging tools. Soon, a series of CLANGS and BANGS echoed through the workshop. Before long, Fang Zhou’s new New Star Necklace had been enhanced to its limit.

Taking the finished necklace, a masterpiece which Instructor Huang Qiuyue proudly handed to him, Fang Zhou’s gaze imdiately shifted to his personal attribute panel, eager to see the changes the item would bring.
