Necromancer: Becoming a God Starting with Skeleton Clone

Chapter 66 Ultimate Enhancement [Bone Shield]

Meng Hongzhuang rummaged through her bag and pulled out a stack of messy materials, handing them to Fang Zhou. She said, "My initial thought was that since skeletons are undead creatures that prioritize quantity over quality, could we use some skills to transform the numerical advantage of a massive number of skeletons into a qualitative advantage for certain individuals?"

We, the Natural Summoners, have similar skills.

However, adapting it for use by undead creatures would be far too difficult.

Fang Zhou quickly glanced at Meng Hongzhuang's draft, his eyes suddenly lighting up.

He had a general idea of ​​Meng Hongzhuang's thinking.

If you summon 100 skeletons, and through a certain skill, each skeleton sacrifices a portion of its attributes, all of which are then added to a single skeleton leader.

Therefore, the individual combat power of this skeleton leader will be greatly enhanced, thus solving the problem of the lack of strong individuals in the skeleton horde tactic.

Although this is just a preliminary idea and the skill materials are not yet complete, the attribute panel does not currently have a "skills that can be deduced" prompt.

However, Fangzhou had a feeling that this idea was definitely feasible.

So he sincerely encouraged her, saying, "Hongzhuang, your idea is excellent."

In addition to the Nature Summoner's class skills, you can also refer to similar skills from other classes.

In addition, Instructor Su Xinyan, as a Gold-rank necromancer, can also provide you with a lot of inspiration.

After all, this is about creating a new skill from scratch, which is definitely very difficult.

You just need to provide inspiration and direction; I'll handle the specifics of the simulation.

Meng Hongzhuang nodded firmly.

She glanced at Bai Xiaochun, who had a smug look on her face, and secretly made up her mind.

She couldn't afford to lose face; how could she let Bai Xiaochun ride roughshod over her?!

Sensing the intense, almost explosive tension between the two assistants, Fang Zhou was secretly delighted, but said gently, "Xiao Chan, Hong Zhuang, you two are both my wings."

If the necromancer class ever rises to prominence, your names will undoubtedly be credited.

For Ark, creating value, making empty promises, and PKU are all talents and skills that come naturally to them.

Bai Xiaochun and Meng Hongzhuang, these two innocent assistants, had never seen such a trick before.

They were quickly inspired by the Ark and were eager to devote themselves to the great cause of revitalizing necromancers.

Seeing that the time was right, Fang Zhou assigned Bai Xiaochun a new task: researching control skills, and then left the research lab.

On his way back to the dormitory, Fangzhou couldn't help but sigh.

Previously, he only thought of recruiting Bai Xiaochun as a research group assistant so that she could better assist him in his cultivation.

This was purely a random move he made.

In retrospect, it has saved him a lot of time and energy, and even brought him unexpected surprises.

Good deeds really do get rewarded!

......

Back in his dorm, Fangzhou opened his personal terminal and browsed the Human Alliance skill library.

The 12 powerful shield-type skills that Bai Xiaochun listed for him all received full affirmation from Instructor Su Xinyan and Instructor Lu Hu, both Gold-rank experts.

It can be said that each one is a gem among the skills of legal professionals.

Now, he needs to carefully consider which shield skills' essence he should absorb to strengthen his Bone Shield.

After much deliberation, and drawing on his own practical experience in simulated battlefields, Fangzhou made a decision.

First, [Psychic Shield] can effectively defend against indirect attacks, so it's a must-have.

Secondly, the Frost Shield, which comes with a slowing and even freezing effect, is a must-have.

Secondly, the [Thorn Shield] has a damage reflection effect against physical attacks, making it a must-have.

Finally, [Mirror Shield] has a chance to reflect spell attacks, so it's a must-have.

If the Bone Shield can possess these four spell effects during the apprentice stage, it is already quite perfect.

After confirming the skill materials, Ark immediately redeemed the four shield-type skills on his personal terminal.

He still had plenty of contribution points, so in order to better improve the simulation results, Fangzhou simply exchanged all the [Skill Insights] for these four skills.

The original price was 80 contribution points, but through the public expense reimbursement process, Ark only needs to pay 40 contribution points.

"Sufficient skill materials have been detected to improve the skill. It is estimated that 80 points of soul power will be consumed."

"Should it be improved?"

Over the past week, Ark has been able to significantly extend the time it takes to level up by controlling its skeleton clones, and the speed at which it accumulates soul power has also increased considerably.

After silently confirming his choice, he quickly consumed 80 points of soul power and rapidly mastered the spell structure of the four premium shield skills.

In a burst of inspiration, he successfully deduced a more comprehensive and powerful [Bone Shield] skill than before.

"Skill [Bone Shield] successfully upgraded!"

[Bone Shield] (Apprentice Level, Perfect): Guides necromantic power to condense into a bone shield, effectively defending against all direct and indirect attacks. It reflects a certain percentage of physical attacks and has a certain chance to reflect magical attacks. When the shield is broken, it will paralyze surrounding enemies. Defensive capabilities and spell effects depend on spirit attribute and skill proficiency.

Compared to the previous brief skill description, the new version of [Bone Shield] is far more powerful.

It perfectly incorporates the advantages of four excellent shield skills: [Psychic Shield], [Frost Shield], [Thorn Shield], and [Mirror Shield]. The spell's effect has reached its limit at the apprentice stage.

Fang Zhou casually conjured a skeletal shield, reaching out to feel its more resilient texture than before, and nodded in satisfaction.

Thanks to his intelligence and the small help from Bai Xiaochun, Meng Hongzhuang, and others, he has acquired another ultimate skill after the [Bone Spear] with its four-fold damage attribute.

Xiao Chan and Hong Zhuang, you two must keep up the good work!

......

The next day, Ark entered the Abyss difficulty [Horned Demon Outpost] again to test the new version of the [Bone Shield] skill.

The results were even better than he had imagined.

The Abyss Demon Children, who had previously been very restrained by him, could no longer absorb spiritual energy from the Ark protected by the Bone Shield, no matter how they used their Devouring Magic Talent.

Even the horned demon boss wielding a giant axe could not break through this sturdy bone shield with a full-force attack.

When it finally manages to withstand the reflected damage from the bone shield and manages to break through the shield with great effort, it will be paralyzed and immobilized in place by the resulting paralysis effect.

Fangzhou stood far behind, watching the horned demon boss in its impotent rage, with a very pleased expression.

It feels really good to easily crush a former formidable foe.

After exiting the simulated battlefield, Fangzhou casually uploaded the latest versions of [Bone Spear] and [Bone Shield] to the Human Alliance skill library.

Soon, he received a reward of 300 contribution points from the People's Federation.
