Chapter 351 Two Months of Diligent Cultivation, His Foundation Increased drastically!
Fangzhou massaged the peach petals listlessly, then asked, "What about the other resources?"
Su Xinyan's heart raced slightly. After a few soft breaths, she coordinated with Fang Zhou's massage movements and said, "The second resource is the Qinghui Ore allocated by the Longxia Federal Military Department from the quota of Longcheng Military Academy."
This is a consumable resource that can effectively restore mental energy simply by being worn close to the body.
Its effects are far more powerful than the slime candles you've used before. It's a special resource created by a master alchemist based on the original rare material.
Because of limited production, originally only the top three military academies were able to enjoy this privilege.
Now that our Haicheng Military Academy has finally risen to become the top military academy, we are naturally qualified to acquire such practical mental energy recovery resources.
Fangzhou felt a surge of excitement upon hearing this.
He had already used up all the slime candles he had exchanged with Meng Hongzhuang during this time.
Although he later squeezed some more money out of his assistant, it became less and less effective for Ark.
If we could exchange it for the kind of Clear Radiance Ore that Instructor Su Xinyan mentioned, it would undoubtedly solve the Ark's urgent problem.
He changed his posture again and asked, "What about the third resource?"
Su Xinyan was a little overwhelmed, her peach petals trembling like jelly as she said in a delicate voice, "There is another resource, the latest alchemical product from the Dragon Xia Federation military, called the [Skill Acceleration Card]."
It's similar to the effect provided by a skill training ground, which can increase your proficiency in practicing skills to a certain extent.
While it can't compare to the already mature and stable technology of the Skill Training Ground, its remarkable feature is that its effects can be stacked with those of the Skill Training Ground.
Because we are the top-ranked military academy, the Federal Military Headquarters made Haicheng Military Academy one of the first to try this new approach.
You can also enjoy the effects of this latest technology.
Fang Zhou raised an eyebrow, and his hands stopped moving.
Of these three resources, to be honest, he's more interested in skill acceleration cards.
It must be said that after awakening the power of the professional system, humanity did not become complacent, but instead made full use of its learning and research capabilities to develop one new alchemical technology after another.
He felt a surge of excitement.
Since absorbing the Amber, his necromancer talent had already been greatly enhanced.
With sufficient resources, coupled with the benefits of alchemical technologies like skill acceleration cards and skill training grounds, he might be able to push all his key skill proficiency to the instinct level in the near future.
In this way, the probability of solidifying his innate skills naturally increases greatly during the process of breaking through the bottleneck and condensing the black iron invisible energy core.
As Su Xinyan had predicted, the logistics department's resource database at Haicheng Military Academy continued to receive a number of new resources over the next period of time.
This immediately triggered a buying frenzy within the military academy.
However, as the top seed student who made outstanding contributions in the recruit competition, Fangzhou naturally did not need to queue up and compete for purchases like the other students.
He exchanged enough Moon Spring Water, Clear Radiance Ore, and Skill Acceleration Cards from the one-eyed instructor in warehouse 2103 to last him two months.
Despite the 3% discount, it still cost him over 400 contribution points.
The most expensive item here is naturally the Skill Acceleration Card, a brand-new alchemical product with a very limited production volume.
Without such a large discount, not to mention ordinary students, even first-year seed students simply couldn't afford such a luxurious cultivation cost.
After that, Fangzhou began his 007-style insane training.
In order to pass the grade-skipping assessment smoothly, and without delaying his daily skill proficiency practice and monster-fighting and leveling up with his skeleton clone, his two assistants, Bai Xiaochun and Meng Hongzhuang, suffered a lot and were forced to follow Fangzhou's pace and start doing hard labor for him.
What's even worse is that when Fang Zhou felt a bit tired and went to Instructor Su Xinyan to relax, his two assistants, Bai Xiaochun and Meng Hongzhuang, were forced to eavesdrop outside the door while working.
If it weren't for the incredibly tempting rewards offered by Ark, and if it weren't for the fact that they wouldn't be serving Ark after he skipped a level, they would have quit long ago.
In less than two months, thanks to the efforts of Instructor Su Xinyan and her three assistants, skills such as [Soul Vision], [Iron Wall Aura], [Dominate Skeletons], and [Bone Blade] were all enhanced to the limit of the apprentice stage.
Fangzhou spared no expense and spent a huge sum of money to purchase and learn all the relevant skill tips.
In addition, Ark now has a variety of ways to restore mental energy. After practicing skills day and night with the help of the skill training ground and skill acceleration cards, the proficiency of most skills has been raised to the perfect level, and some have even reached the instinct level.
Skills such as [Skeleton King Meditation], [Summon Skeletons], and [Skeleton Spears] have also been greatly enhanced.
For the necromancer in the Ark, his mental attribute has been approaching 10 points in the past month or two, thanks to daily training and the feedback from his skeleton clones.
The day the Spirit attribute reaches 10 points is the day when the Ark breaks through the bottleneck and is upgraded to Black Iron.
Judging from the current progress, that day is not far away.
Meanwhile, on the skeleton clone's side, Ark has not been idle for the past two months.
For nearly two months, the Ark ventured deep into the Hills of Corpses, reaching a very distant place.
They not only encountered several waves of mutated undead creatures, but also discovered several new undead attribute resources.
Unfortunately, among these mutated undead creatures, the Ark only encountered one mutated Tower Shield Skeleton Warrior, who could be enslaved by his [Skeleton King] skill.
Ark named this new subordinate "Sion".
As for the undead attribute resources that were discovered, absorb all of them on the spot if possible.
If his absorption limit had been reached, Ark distributed it to potential intelligent subordinates such as Tryndamere, Varus, and Sion.
Under his guidance, Sion, Tryndamere, Varus, and other skeleton warriors also began to show their potential.
Seeing his subordinates perform exceptionally well in battle fills Fangzhou with a sense of accomplishment.
It's worth mentioning that the Ark Skeleton clone's Strength attribute is now close to 70 points, and it's very close to the 80-point mark that separates it from the middle and upper levels of Black Iron.
As the strength attribute increases, Ark's combat style becomes more diverse.
The skeleton clone has now not only learned all the Iron-level general combat skills recommended by Instructor Lu Hu, but has also accumulated a considerable amount of unused soul power.
This doesn't mean that soul power has no use other than learning skills.
It was only recently, after the Ark had a surplus of soul power, that it discovered another important function of itss:
You can directly consume soul power to enhance skill proficiency.
However, this direct reinforcement comes at a high cost.
Even though Ark has already accumulated a considerable amount of soul power, it has no intention of spending it for the time being.
According to Ark's current calculations, it takes 10 points of soul power to learn an apprentice-level skill.
Reaching the Master level requires 20 points of Soul Power;
Reaching the proficiency level requires 50 points of soul power;
Reaching the Proficiency level requires 100 points of Soul Power;
Reaching the perfect proficiency level requires 200 points of soul power;
To reach the highest level of instinct proficiency, 400 points of soul power are required.
If you have the corresponding skill materials, skill insights, or relevant knowledge, the consumption of soul power will be reduced to a certain extent.
However, for the necromancer in Ark, most of his key skills are currently the result of his own hard work and ingenuity in deducing them.
I've used all the necessary skill materials and knowledge reserves, and only then did I manage to painstakingly raise my proficiency to the perfect level.
If you want to upgrade from Perfection to Instinct, the consumption of 400 points of Soul Power is really too much, and Ark is reluctant to do so for the time being.
These soul powers were almost all accumulated little by little by the skeleton clones through countless arduous battles.
Therefore, Ark is particularly cautious about whether to invest these valuable resources all at once in improving a particular skill.
As for the skeleton clones, the skill proficiency enhancement costs for those Iron-level skills need to be increased tenfold compared to the Apprentice-level skills.
Fangzhou had no such idea for the foreseeable future.
After all, his main body is about to break through the bottleneck and advance to the Black Iron realm.
Once promoted to a lower-ranking Black Iron Necromancer, many of Ark's current skills will need to be updated.
Fang Zhou knew that once he broke through to the Iron level, he would face a completely new skill system. Many of his existing skills would no longer be applicable, and they would be replaced by more powerful Iron-level skills.
Therefore, he must retain enough spiritual power to cope with this transformation.
Although the Ark has prepared thousands of contribution points for use in the Iron stage, a large amount of soul power is still needed in advance if you want to quickly master these Iron-level mage skills.
After much deliberation, Fang Zhou decided that instead of spending a huge amount of soul power to raise a single apprentice-level skill to the instinct level of proficiency, it would be better to save that soul power and use it for consumption during the Black Iron stage.
After all, the Ark currently has a relatively limited channel for obtaining soul power, mainly relying on hunting and absorbing it through skeleton clones.
Only when other channels for obtaining soul power can be expanded can Ark consider using soul power for the luxury of improving skill proficiency.
In the hills of corpses, Ark looked at the attribute panel of his clone:
[Clone] Skeleton Warrior [Rank] Mid-Iron [Attributes] Strength 70, Constitution 66, Agility 68, Spirit 65
[Equipment] Corpse Spear +2 (Level 2 Bone Stone *2), Corpse Armor +2 (Level 2 Bone Stone *2)
[Oddity] Berserker's Mark (Purple)
[Skills] Skeleton King (Black Iron, Instinct), Corpse Armament (Black Iron, Instinct), Brutal Strike (Black Iron, Perfect), Heroic Charge (Black Iron, Perfect), Advanced Weapon Mastery (Black Iron, Perfect), Parry Counterattack (Black Iron, Perfect), Victory Cry (Black Iron, Proficient), Battle Aura Slash (Black Iron, Proficient), Whirlwind Strike (Black Iron, Proficient), Battle Aura Shield (Black Iron, Proficient), Vengeful Stance (Black Iron, Proficient), Terrifying Roar (Black Iron, Proficient), Trample (Black Iron, Proficient), Unknown Skills (Under Analysis)
[Apostle] 2 (Sandru, Su Xinyan)
[Servants] Tryndamere + Varus + Sion + 64
With a satisfied clench of his bone fist, Fang Zhou led his sixty-odd skeleton minions to continue exploring the Hill of Corpses.
What was supposed to be a typical hunt turned into a pleasant surprise when Ark discovered a brand new mutated dual-sword skeleton warrior.
This dual-sword skeleton warrior appears to be much stronger than Tryndamere.
It swiftly and decisively defeated Team One of the Ark.
After clearing the battlefield, it quickly absorbed the debris left on the ground and then disappeared from the Ark's sight.
It's rare to encounter a mutated skeleton that can be enslaved, and it even dares to attack his pitiful Team One, which has been reorganized many times. Naturally, Ark won't let it go.
He immediately ordered his skeleton squad to track the mutated dual-sword skeleton warrior and relentlessly pursue it along the trail it left behind.
After more than an hour of tracking, Ark and his skeleton minions left the hilly area and entered a canyon.
Before us lay a deep canyon with steep cliffs on both sides.
As they entered the canyon from the hilly area, Ark clearly sensed a slight change in the surrounding atmosphere.
It was as if the aura of death permeating this canyon was purer and gentler.
Moreover, there seems to be an invisible barrier separating this canyon from the outside world.
Upon entering the canyon, Ark looked ahead.
The canyon is not large, about two or three kilometers long and only two or three hundred meters wide.
Standing at the entrance to the canyon, he could see some sluggish zombie figures wandering within it.
At the edge of the field of vision, there was a blurry building surrounded by many figures!
Fang Zhou was startled. He had been controlling his skeleton clone to hunt in the Netherworld for so long, and this was the first time he had ever seen a man-made structure.
The fact that buildings could be formed here indicates that this place was once visited by beings with advanced intelligence.
However, after wandering around the perimeter of the canyon, Ark discovered that the building was already dilapidated and looked like a decaying relic that had been washed away by the river of time for countless years.
After a moment of quiet contemplation, Fang Zhou tried to move as quietly as possible, concealing himself with his skeleton minions as they made their way into the interior of the canyon.
The trail left by the mutated twin-sword skeleton warrior stretched deep into the canyon.
The ark is located at the only exit of this canyon.
Whatever is hidden in this canyon, as long as he clears it out, he will naturally be able to find the hidden mutated dual-sword skeleton warrior.
With a quicker pace, Fangzhou felt more confident.
