Chapter 267 The Four-Piece Cultivation Set, the Treasure Chest for Pioneering!
Upon hearing this, Su Xinyan's cold and beautiful face revealed a thoughtful expression.
She didn't insist on her opinion, but nodded slightly and said with a meaningful tone, "You make a good point."
The new recruits' skills competition truly requires us to demonstrate our greatest strength.
As a necromancer capable of commanding an army single-handedly, you can indeed maximize your personal combat power if you can fight independently.
In this way, we can have Hongzhuang, Ye Fan, and others lead another team.
In this way, our Haicheng Military Academy team can form multiple combat units that can support each other and complete missions independently.
This is undoubtedly a huge advantage in the game.
Su Xinyan thought for a moment and continued, "Moreover, considering your special skills, if you can move freely on the battlefield, you can not only quickly eliminate the enemy's key targets, but also provide support for our team when necessary."
This way, we can flexibly adjust our strategies according to the specific circumstances of the match, maximizing the strengths of each player.
"Once all the team members for the recruit competition are finalized, Fangzhou, you can certainly mention your ideas to Captain Lu Hu."
If the instructors agree with your assessment, then it's not impossible for you to operate alone.
After hearing this, Fangzhou did not delve further into the topic.
He has enough ability and confidence to convince all the instructors of his views through his subsequent actions.
After all, his skill set is already quite comprehensive.
Whether it's attack, defense, control, buffs, or even movement and detection, he doesn't need other students whose strength is too much different from his to assist him.
This will likely be quickly recognized by the military academy instructors.
Fang Zhou gently stroked the necromancer orb in his hand, a surge of fighting desire welling up within him.
Now, with the addition of the four-piece training set of the Nova Set, he already possesses five pieces of white, common-quality equipment.
As his mental attributes continue to improve, he might be able to withstand the pressure from one or two additional pieces of ordinary white-quality equipment before breaking through to the Black Iron level.
At that time, he might even activate the five-piece set effect of the Nova Set.
Due to the limited forging technology of humans on Earth, the higher the quality of a professional's equipment, the more difficult it is to achieve a set bonus.
For example, the entire gray, low-quality apprentice set that Ark previously used required eight pieces to achieve a complete set effect.
Now, the white, ordinary-quality Nova Set provided by Haicheng Military Academy only requires five pieces to achieve the set effect.
However, five pieces is the maximum value for the Nova Set's set effect.
Even if you collect all eight pieces, you cannot generate more equipment resonance or activate additional set effects.
Therefore, replacing the Nova Staff that Ark originally planned with the Undead Orb that Instructor Su Xinyan had used would not bring any negative effects; on the contrary, it might bring him unexpected advantages.
Looking at the equipment slots in his attribute panel, Fangzhou couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and satisfaction.
However, he quickly shook his head, banishing that hint of arrogance from his mind.
Next, even more challenging tasks awaited him.
Despite the fact that he could break through the bottleneck and advance to the Black Iron level in no time thanks to his daily passive meditation and the assistance of his clone attribute panel, he was still able to do so.
But before that, he had an even more pressing goal.
That is to find an extremely rare apprentice-level undead attribute natural treasure, Ghost Amber.
Although the necromancers on the Ark possess unparalleled talent among all humans on Earth, obtaining a treasure like the Amber would be a significant advantage.
It will greatly help in consolidating one's own foundation and enhancing one's affinity.
Both Meng Hongzhuang and Liu Diewu, being natural-attribute professionals, experienced a significant increase in their abilities after consuming the Everlasting Fruit.
This made Fang Zhou even more certain that Youpo was equally important to him.
If given the chance to obtain it, Ark would naturally not want to miss it.
But Fangzhou was very aware of his own abilities.
Time was of the essence, and he knew that his progress was extremely rapid, with breaking through to the Black Iron realm within a few months being almost a certainty.
In such a short time, where could he possibly find such a rare piece of amber?
Fang Zhou fell into deep thought, his mind racing as a list of possible candidates came to mind.
Instructor Su Xinyan.
The High Priest Sandru.
Instructor Lu Hu and even Principal Su Tiankuo.
These people might be able to guide him or offer him help.
Besides trying to obtain the rare and precious material, Ark also needs to sort out and develop the various skills possessed by its main body and clones as much as possible.
Since the Ark just awakened, the military academy instructors have spared no effort in instilling a crucial concept in the cadets.
"The quality of skills is far more important than the quantity."
This sentence seems to have become an ironclad rule of the military academy, engraved in the hearts of every cadet.
A powerful skill that has reached an instinctive level of proficiency is far more valuable than several ordinary skills that are only at the beginner level.
This profound understanding allowed Fangzhou to maintain a clear awareness throughout his cultivation journey.
As professionals, our energy and resources are extremely limited.
How to create a relatively perfect and powerful combat system with limited energy and resources is a question that every professional needs to consider.
Thinking of the unknown talent skill originating from the zombie that was being developed in the attribute panel of the skeleton clone, Ark was filled with anticipation.
The analysis of this talent skill will greatly enhance the combat power of his clone and main body, and may even become the key to victory in future battles.
After pondering this in his heart, Fang Zhou's mood returned to calm.
if I get it I am lucky, but if not, it is fate.
With the support of his skeleton clone and attribute panel, he firmly believed that one day he would be able to reach the pinnacle of the professional world and achieve great things.
Carefully storing the necromancer orb in his hand into his spatial storage capsule, Fang Zhou looked up at Instructor Su Xinyan.
"Instructor Xinyan," Fangzhou's voice carried a hint of amusement, "I put in a really good effort just now."
This isn't just about getting that undead orb.
As he spoke, he raised the two fingers that had just brought Su Xinyan both immense pleasure and torment, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.
Instructor Su Xinyan's gaze was unconsciously drawn to Fang Zhou's two fingers, as if they still retained some strange scent.
This made her heart beat a little faster involuntarily.
A faint blush crept onto her cheeks without her realizing it, making her both shy and charming.
Su Xinyan coughed lightly, trying to hide her emotions, and then opened her personal terminal.
As she transferred files to Fangzhou, she grumbled, "You little traitorous apprentice, one day I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget!"
I have already applied to Haicheng Military Academy for the basic skills materials for the part-time alchemist profession.
Send it to your personal terminal now.
"I was planning to teach it to you at noon today."
But you insisted on playing tricks on me in my lounge.
Now look what's happened, more than an hour has passed, and you've wasted all that time.
You should just go to class and behave yourself.
Fang Zhou, however, said nonchalantly, "How can spending time with Instructor Xin Yan be considered a waste of time?"
Su Xinyan gave Fang Zhou a charming glare and said, "Go to class and stop arguing with me."
Remember to come to the lab tonight, I'll give you a proper demonstration of the wonders of alchemy.
Fang Zhou nodded and smiled slightly, saying, "I will follow Instructor Xin Yan's instructions."
After saying that, he brazenly put his arm around Su Xinyan's slender and supple waist, and then, carrying a sweet fragrance, hurriedly headed towards the training ground deep underground in the Hall of Glory.
It must be admitted that Instructor Su Xinyan's adaptability is getting stronger and stronger.
It actually took him more than an hour to finally subdue this little devil.
If we don't hurry, we might really be late.
During the break between classes, Fangzhou suddenly thought of something.
He immediately opened his personal terminal and sent a message to his senior brother Lu Renjia, who had once lent him a helping hand when he needed it.
【Ordinary Apprentice】(Ark): "Senior Brother Lu, I have successfully advanced to the upper apprentice level and am now qualified to challenge the upper apprentice level simulated battlefield 【Defense of the Shelter】."
If you still have challenge attempts today, we can team up and try it out.
Meanwhile, in a corner of the second-year practical training field.
Lu Renjia had just finished a tense and intense training session, and his training clothes were soaked with sweat.
Just as he was about to take a short break, he noticed the information about the Ark on his personal terminal.
His eyes widened suddenly, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing.
Lu Yiyi, who was standing nearby, noticed Lu Renjia's unusual behavior and asked with concern, "What's wrong? You seem very agitated."
Lu Renjia snapped out of his daze and turned to Lu Yiyi with an excited tone, saying, "The Ark boss just sent me a message!"
He has successfully been promoted to apprentice and is now ready to take on the challenge of defending the shelter.
He also asked me if I had any challenges today, and if I could team up with him.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yiyi also showed a surprised expression and muttered to herself, "The Ark Boss has already been promoted to the senior apprentice level."
How could that be—he's only been awakened for less than four months.
Haicheng Military Academy, as a cradle for cultivating outstanding soldiers, has always been known for its rigorous standards.
Such a rapid promotion is almost unprecedented here.
Lu Yiyi couldn't help but exclaim, "This is simply unbelievable."
Our Haicheng Military Academy has never had such a promotion record before. Fang Zhou's progress is truly astonishing.
Lu Renjia shook his head and sighed, "Alas, it's true that comparing yourself to others is just plain frustrating."
We are all students at Haicheng Military Academy. Who among us isn't proud and ambitious, striving to perform exceptionally well?
But now it seems that the new generation is pushing the old one aside, and the old one has been swept away and left to die on the beach.
We painstakingly cultivated for over a year, only to be easily overtaken by the Ark's experts.
Lu Yiyi sighed softly, a complex emotion in her eyes, and said, "Yes—"
We've also watched their first-year seeded students perform in the ring challenge.
At that time, Fangzhou had just been promoted to the intermediate level of apprentice not long ago.
But the strength he displayed made me realize that even as an apprentice archer, I couldn't compete with him.
Now that the Ark veteran has been promoted to apprentice, how much of a leap in strength will he experience?
Lu Renjia listened from the side, a hesitant look on his face, as if he had some unspeakable secret.
Finally, he couldn't help but speak up: "Actually—just a few days ago, before Boss Fangzhou was promoted to apprentice,
I once had the privilege of making a cut with him.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yiyi immediately raised her head, her eyes shining with admiration.
"As expected of you, Lu Renjia!"
The Ark boss's strength is so terrifying, how dare you fight him?
With that courage alone, you've already surpassed many others.
Lu Renjia shook his head with a wry smile and explained, "Actually, that so-called 'cut' was just me deceiving myself and trying to make myself look good."
What I was facing was just a skeleton under the command of the Ark boss.
With the enhancement of his skills, even an ordinary skeleton becomes extremely powerful.
As for me, a warrior who had risen from apprentice to warrior, I was utterly defeated after only a few rounds of fighting that elite double-axe skeleton.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yiyi was so surprised that her mouth dropped open, and she was speechless for a moment.
After a moment, she came to her senses and said incredulously, "How is this possible?"
You are a professional who rose from apprenticeship!
Even in a one-on-one situation, if he wasn't a match for Ark, the necromancer who was still a mid-level apprentice at the time, surely he wouldn't be unable to handle even one of Ark's summoned skeletons?
She paused for a moment, then continued, "Do you have any video footage of the battle?"
I simply can't believe it.
If it's really as you say, that a single skeleton can achieve a challenge beyond one's level, then the strength of the Ark's boss is simply too heaven-defying.
Lu Renjia opened his personal terminal, found the video recording of a fierce battle with Olaf, one of Ark's subordinates, and a coronation greatsword skeleton, and quickly sent it to Lu Yiyi.
"Yiyi, I've never told you about that experience."
Because I felt it was a rather embarrassing experience.
The Ark expert seems to have recently developed a new summon enhancement skill, and he needs a suitable opponent to help his summons improve their strength.
I thought to myself, even though I'm no match for Ark, I should be able to deal with one of his summons.
Therefore, I accepted the invitation without hesitation.
But I didn't expect that the elite double-axe monster he summoned would be so terrifying in combat after being enhanced by his skills.
I tried everything I could, but I could only barely hold out for a short while before it easily defeated me.
