Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone Chapter 515 - 370: Apostle Development—Clone or Divine Spiri

At this mont, Silvanas, who had been too intimidated to speak in front of the two Golden Tier elders, Sandro and Su Xinyan, finally spoke after Fang Zhou had finished.

"Actually, I also solidified a Summoning Series talent skill at the Black Iron Tier," Silvanas said softly. "However, I only solidified the Summon Skeleton skill. The resulting enhancent only applies to Skeletons, Skeleton Warriors, and other undead creatures from the Skeleton Series. Creatures like Zombies, for example, won’t receive any benefits from the talent skill’s enhancent. At the Black Iron Tier, this talent skill can still significantly boost my combat power. But as my level increases and low-tier undead creatures like Skeletons and Skeleton Warriors are phased out of my combat lineup, the effectiveness of this talent skill will diminish drastically. Eventually, it might as well be a blank slate."

Silvanas wasn’t speaking the language of the Longxia Federation or the Purple Iris Alliance, not even a language of the Blue Star People. She was speaking the language of the Moon Elves. However, all three Undead Mages present, including Fang Zhou, had mastered the Universal Skill, Language Mastery. Thus, they perfectly understood her, and communication was seamless.

The issue Silvanas ntioned is a common predicant Professionals face when solidifying talent skills, Fang Zhou thought. Not all talent skills can be continuously upgraded. For those that can’t, they only provide a temporary boost. As a Professional levels up, the effects of such skills naturally diminish. Of course, the talent skill he had solidified for Summoning Undead Creatures was extraordinary. Its magic structure provided him with nearly unlimited room for expansion. Forget Black Iron or Bronze; it had more than enough potential to extend to Silver, Gold, or even Glory Champion. As for the realms beyond Legendary, that was another matter entirely. That was too far off for him to worry about now.

The four Undead Mages continued their discussion on the topic of summoning Undead Creatures for quite a while longer. The atmosphere in the eting room grew increasingly lively as everyone actively shared their insights and experiences.

This continued until Su Xinyan said, "Fang Zhou also serendipitously developed a skill to summon Mutated Skeleton Bats a few days ago. How is the progress? Is the summoning success rate stable?"

Fang Zhou nodded. "After several days of deduction and refinent, I’ve beco much better at capturing the soul fluctuations required to summon Mutated Skeleton Bats. The success rate of the summon has increased significantly as well. However, compared to ordinary Skeleton Warriors and Zombies, the mana cost for summoning a Mutated Skeleton Bat has doubled. For other Undead Mages unfamiliar with the soul fluctuations of Skeleton Bats, this mana cost would be even more exorbitant."

He certainly hadn’t been idle these past few days. Leveraging his Overturning Talent, along with so minor assistance from his Clone and attribute panel, he had spent only 100 Soul Power to develop the new summoning skill to a combat-ready state.

Hearing Instructor Su Xinyan’s introduction piqued Master Sandro’s interest. He said, "A Skeleton Bat, is this a mutated undead creature of the Black Iron Tier? If it’s convenient, could you summon one for us to see?"

Fang Zhou naturally had no objection. He softly recited a spell.

Soon, from a vortex shimring with a black iron-colored tallic luster, a Black Iron Lower Tier Mutated Skeleton Bat with a wingspan of just under half a ter flew forth. After circling above everyone’s heads once, it landed on Fang Zhou’s hand.

A gray glow flashed in Master Sandro’s eyes as he seemingly scanned all the data and skills of the Mutated Skeleton Bat. A hint of surprise appeared on his face as he said, "It’s a rare Flying Series undead creature! Whether used for aerial reconnaissance or as part of our airborne units, it’s a powerful addition to the array of creatures we Undead Mages can summon."

Pride flashed across Su Xinyan’s face as she nodded. "You’re right, Master Sandro. I’ve also been helping Fang Zhou test the various stats and combat performance of this Mutated Skeleton Bat recently."

She opened her personal terminal and sent the latest Undead Creatures Atlas to Sandro and Silvanas, then continued to detail the Skeleton Bat’s various stats.

Silvanas stared at the atlas, nodding repeatedly, her eyes filled with irrepressible excitent. After a mont, she looked at Fang Zhou in disbelief and said, "Fang Zhou, it’s been nearly a year since I broke through my bottleneck and advanced to the Black Iron Lower Tier. Even my ntor, Master Sandro, has praised my talent for the Undead Mage profession. But in all my ditation during this ti, I’ve never once felt the soul fluctuations of a mutated undead creature, let alone deduced a new skill to summon one. And you’ve only just broken through to the Black Iron Lower Tier, yet you’ve already captured the soul fluctuations of a powerful undead creature like the Skeleton Bat during your ditation. You even successfully deduced the related skill and summoned it to Blue Star."
