CHAPTER 62: CHAPTER 62: RARE RESOURCES OF THE UNDEAD REALM, EXPLOSIVE POWER SURGE
Fang Zhou’s soul fatigue was greatly alleviated, and he couldn’t help but let out a long breath.
This Soul Calming Potion truly lived up to Bai Xiaochan’s strong recommendation; its effect was indeed remarkable.
However, just like the Spiritual Recovery Potion, an apprentice-level Professional could only consume one bottle of [Low-grade Soul Calming Potion] within a day.
Otherwise, with Fang Zhou’s affluent status, he would wish to drink it like water.
Now, Fang Zhou could listen to Bai Xiaochan perform a piece of [Soul Calming Song] every day, eat more Soothing Mushrooms in the cafeteria, and coupled with the newly redeemed Soul Calming Potion, his soul recovery speed was nearly twice as fast as when he first awoke.
Bathed in the bright moonlight, Fang Zhou happily returned to the dormitory. After washing up, he quickly fell into a deep sleep.
...
The next morning, Fang Zhou woke up refreshed and reenergized.
The drowsiness caused by soul fatigue and lack of sleep was completely gone.
Worth the money indeed, as this Soul Calming Potion truly was effective.
Fang Zhou was very satisfied and sighed once more.
After breakfast, he spiritedly headed to the Simulation Battlefield.
After last night’s spending spree, his attributes, equipment, and skills had all seen a significant improvement.
After updating his projection in the Simulation Battlefield, Fang Zhou decisively entered the Abyss Difficulty [Horn Demon Outpost].
This time, he intended to try facing the demon formation head-on to test his real combat ability.
In the familiar thick fog, Fang Zhou quickly summoned 50 skeletons, stronger than before.
Then he drank a Spiritual Recovery Potion, activated the [Calm and Relaxed] skill, and restored his spiritual power to seventy percent.
Unlike before, he no longer controlled the Skeleton Army to dig traps in the Thick Fog Jungle but directly charged towards the Horn Demon Outpost in a grand array.
Under the precise Bone Spear attacks, the six little infernal demon sentinels outside the outpost only had time to issue one alert before Fang Zhou killed them all.
Then, amidst the grating sound of skeletal friction, the Skeleton Army swiftly surged into the outpost, blocking the Giant Axe Heavy Armored Horned Demon and its demon army that were rushing out upon hearing the sentinels’ warning in the outpost hall.
When narrow meets courage, the brave wins!
With seventy percent spirit left, Fang Zhou, along with 50 elite skeletons, confronted 35 demons head-on.
Amidst the demons’ roars and skeletons’ screeches, a great battle erupted instantly.
Meanwhile, at the training ground,
other apprentices challenging the Simulation Battlefield also turned their surprised gazes towards the live feed of Fang Zhou’s battle.
"Look! Fang Zhou actually charged into the outpost with his skeletons this time? Is he going head-to-head with those demons?"
"How is that possible? Last week, he had to devise various tactics to weaken the demons’ strength for a win.
If his raw strength was enough, why would he need so many tactics?"
"Haven’t you noticed? Fang Zhou summoned 10 more skeletons than a week ago!
And his magic staff and other equipment are all inlaid with various gemstones. Wow, that’s so extravagant! I don’t even have the contribution points to exchange for an apprentice’s longsword."
Amidst the students’ shocked discussions, the Skeleton Army and outpost demons were already locked in a brutal melee fight.
Unexpectedly, the skeletons summoned by Fang Zhou didn’t shatter upon contact with the fierce axed Heavy Armored Horned Demon.
Fang Zhou’s magic staff emanated waves of pitch-black light, enhancing the skeletons upon which the black light shone significantly.
Under the Group Brutality Skill’s effect, their fangs and bone claws were able to leave deep scratches on the horned demons’ heavy armor.
Of course, given the horned demons’ tough hides, Fang Zhou planned to deal with them last.
Under his command, the primary targets of the Skeleton Army were the six cunning, middle-rank apprentice Abyss Demon Children.
Standing outside the outpost gate, Fang Zhou, through a sea of skulls, was naturally unafraid of having his spiritual power absorbed by the Demon Children’s Magic-Devouring Talent.
Seeing this, the Demon Children retreated under the protection of the little infernal demons, waving their obsidian magic balls and firing a string of filthy Desecration Beams.
Outnumbered, the little infernal demons were forced to huddle together to stabilize the front line.’
Good opportunity!
With a glint in his eyes, Fang Zhou decisively waved his magic staff, "Skeleton Arrow Rain!"
With sharp whistling sounds, dozens of bone arrows shot near the outpost hall’s ceiling towards the little infernal demon battle group bundled together.
Amidst a series of tragic wails, five or six little infernal demons were struck down dead.
Then, the bone arrows caused successive explosions, injuring many little infernal demons unable to dodge in time.
Terrified, some lower-rank apprentice little infernal demons, regardless of the abyss demon children’s commands, fled chaotically.
The originally tight defense line exposed a flaw.
Fang Zhou immediately and sharply seized this rare opportunity.
Releasing Skeletal Shackles again to interrupt the axed Heavy Armored Horned Demon’s charging power storage, Fang Zhou commanded 30 skeletons to launch a fearless offensive amidst the chaos of the little infernal demons’ ranks.
Supported by Perfection-level [Summon Skeleton] and [Domination Skeleton], as well as [Group Brutality Skill] and other skills, the once-fragile skeletons now completely overpowered the lower-rank apprentice little infernal demons.
Even middle-rank apprentice little infernal demons struggled to fend off these skeletons despite desperately swinging their steel forks.
The six abyss demon children, realizing the grim situation, let out sharp curses, then fired six Desecration Beams, shattering three skeletons that led the charge.
Seeing this, Fang Zhou was not to be outdone.
With another furious wave of Skeleton Arrow Rain, he once again killed four or five little infernal demons.
The Skeleton Army executed another charge, finally ripping apart the little infernal demons’ desperately maintained front line.
Crack.
Crack.
Unafraid of anything, the skeletons paid no heed to the panicked little infernal demons.
Under Fang Zhou’s command, they directly targeted the six abyss demon children hiding at the back of the battle formation, surrounding them from all sides.
The outpost hall, originally quite spacious, now felt incredibly cramped under the melee of nearly 100 combat units.
The abyss demon children, deprived of the little infernal demons’ protection, were directly exposed to the attacks of Fang Zhou and the Skeleton Army.
Unhesitantly using his mana, Fang Zhou raised six Skeleton Shackles, sealing the abyss demon children’s last hope of escape.
Then, the dozens of skeletons lunged and easily tore these demon children to pieces.
After dealing with these troublesome demon children, Fang Zhou let out a gentle breath of relief.
He knew the scales of victory had fully tipped in his favor.
Next, he allocated half the skeletons to continue suppressing the furiously frustrated axed Heavy Armored Horned Demon.
The other half collaborated with his Skeleton Flying Spear and Skeleton Arrow Rain to encircle and eradicate the remaining few little infernal demons in the hall.
