Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone Chapter 704 - 466: Summoning [Advanced Corpse Tomb], New Uni

While the Corpse Knight served as his decisive trump card and assault unit, Fang Zhou still needed to create one or more types of Undead Creatures to act as the main force of his army. This was also a necessary preparation to ensure he would have a powerful sequence of Summoned Creatures, ready for combat, imdiately after his own advancent to the Bronze Tier.

As far as Fang Zhou knew, the Bronze Tier Ghost he so desired was still a distant and elusive goal. The focus of his upcoming research would likely still need to be on the broader Zombie family. He could either follow the design path of the Corpse Warriors, continuing to build upon them with resources from the Skeleton Series and Flesh and Blood Series, or he could draw from the characteristics of the Zombie race, developing specialized units from their various advanced forms that focused on things like plague, blood, Iron Armor, or even explosions.

For a long ti, Fang Zhou had given this serious thought. According to his previously superficial understanding, Zombies were the typical trash of the Undead Realm. Aside from serving as at shields, they were basically useless. However, in the Wasteland of Strife, Fang Zhou had seen all kinds of bizarre, advanced Zombie types.

In the end, Fang Zhou decided to experint with a new idea. He issued the order to construct the [Advanced Corpse Tomb], an upgraded version of the Corpse Pit.

With a large investnt of Corpse Essence and Soul Power, a plot of land next to the Corpse Pit suddenly began to stir and loosen. A low, desolate graveyard erged. From the outside, it looked like the perfect filming location for a ghost movie. Similar to other Unit Buildings, there was an altar-like structure at the graveyard’s exit. Based on past experience, synthesizing High-level Zombies simply required tossing in a considerable amount of resources.

Once the Advanced Corpse Tomb was built, an excited Fang Zhou signaled Tidamia to push the prepared Zombie offerings inside. The mont these offerings—or synthesis materials—were thrown in, the ground of the entire Advanced Corpse Tomb began to shake violently from below. Before long, humanoid monsters with bluish-gray skin crawled out of the soil and limped toward Fang Zhou.

The most eye-catching of them all was the Zombie leading the group.

This Zombie was very special. He was roughly three ters tall with a waist circumference nearing two and a half ters, a truly frightening, bloated mass of flesh. In his right hand, he tightly gripped a Butcher Knife that was three feet long, with a wide blade and a thick spine. The blade bore black stains that resembled dried blood. In addition, several black Chains were wound around his body, biting deep into his bulky flesh. A rusty iron hook was attached to the end of one chain.

After crawling out of the Advanced Corpse Tomb, this extraordinary Giant Zombie ignored the dirt caked on his body and charged straight toward Fang Zhou.

"My Lord, your loyal servant reports to you!"

Upon hearing the raspy yet flattering voice, Fang Zhou secretly felt relieved. It seems the first Summoning from the Advanced Corpse Tomb brought a pleasant surprise, producing a highly intelligent Mutated Zombie. Even with Fang Zhou’s power and influence, finding and enslaving a mutated Undead Creature was an opportunity that ca by chance, not by searching.

"Alright..." Fang Zhou grinned. "Since you’re so clever, I’ll call you Sain."

Fang Zhou had previously bestowed the na Sain upon a mutated Tower Shield Skeleton Warrior. However, after that warrior advanced to beco a Bronze Tier Corpse Knight, the na no longer seed to fit. It was only fitting to now transfer the na to this more suitable Mutated Zombie.

As my subordinate, the smarter and stronger Sain is, the better. No one would turn down powerful subordinates, especially ones who would never betray you.

"Sain, tell about your abilities."

"At your command, my Lord!" Sain replied earnestly. "I have the ability to directly command all Zombie units. That’s not just the Zombie units summoned from this Corpse Pit or the Advanced Corpse Tomb. I can also command any other Zombie units you subjugate.

"Additionally, my own combat prowess is quite strong. My subordinates may be weak, but they are no reflection of my true strength. I will do my utmost to ensure that you are never hard by anyone."

Sain’s bold words, accompanied by his honest expression, indeed seed credible. However, for Fang Zhou, seeing was believing. He thought for a mont and summoned Tidamia.

"You called for , my Lord!"

"Tidamia," Fang Zhou nodded, "spar with Sain. I want to see your strength."

"Yes, my Lord."

"I understand your command, my Lord."

And with that, the Corpse Knight and the Giant Zombie—two Bronze Undead—began to clash.

Fang Zhou sat astride his Yellow Springs Nightmare, calmly watching the duel between Sain and Tidamia unfold. I really have to admit, Sain’s prowess is indeed above Tidamia’s, especially with those swift movents. Despite his massive size, his movents showed no sign of sluggishness; he was as nimble as an oversized gorilla! The chains wound around Sain’s body were especially effective. Whenever Tidamia tried to create distance, with a WHIR of his chain, Sain would hook him and drag him back, leaving Tidamia no chance to catch his breath.
