Necromancer: Becoming a God Starting with Skeleton Clone

Chapter 77 Destination: Goblin Cave

Fang Zhou glanced at the approximate distance; at his speed, he should be able to reach it in an afternoon.

Cleaning the goblin cave thoroughly will not only give you a significant advantage in hunting points compared to other trainees, but it will also allow you to spend the night there.

After resting for a while and restoring his mental and physical strength to their peak, Ark once again commanded the skeleton team to embark on a hunting expedition.

Unbeknownst to them, a thick fog had already risen in Cave 1.

"Awoo!"

Suddenly, a wolf howl came from ahead.

Then a gigantic wolf-like creature, almost reaching the Ark's chest when standing on all fours, slowly emerged from the thick fog.

"A ferocious wolf?"

Upon seeing the giant wolf in front of him, Fangzhou immediately commanded the skeleton team to surround it.

"roar!"

The ferocious wolf stared intently at the Ark and his horde of skeletons with its blood-red eyes, baring its teeth and howling menacingly.

Click.

Click.

No matter how ferocious the wolf was, the skeletons knew nothing of fear.

Under Ark's command, they darted out from all directions in a single stride.

"Woof!"

After letting out a howl, the giant wolf charged towards the skeletons on the ark!

When the two sides meet, it is clear that although this ferocious wolf is only a lower-level apprentice, its strength is no less than that of a mid-level apprentice skeleton.

Looking at the skeleton in front of it, the giant wolf's front paws gleamed with a dark light, as if it had used some kind of skill, and then it slashed out with its paw.

The first skeleton to rush forward was unable to dodge and was sent flying backward, crashing down next to the ark.

Although it didn't shatter completely, the left arm bone was broken into two pieces.

Fang Zhou remained calm as he watched the fierce battle unfold before him.

Skeletons are essentially cannon fodder summons; you summon as many as you die.

But no matter how strong this ferocious wolf is, how many times can it use that skill in a row?

In fact, Ark could kill this ferocious wolf instantly by using the combo of [Bone Shackles] and [Bone Spears].

However, in order to conserve his mental energy, he did not do so.

It's just that the skeletons will take a little longer and suffer a few more injuries; it's nothing serious.

After all, this underground hunt lasted for three whole days.

Unlike the racing in the simulated battlefield, the dungeon hunt tests the trainees' endurance in combat.

Therefore, Ark is not in a hurry to win or lose in the short term.

Just as he expected, the ferocious wolf used its skill again, knocking away another skeleton.

However, when faced with the attack of several other skeletons, it immediately became weak, as if the two skills it had used had consumed a lot of its stamina.

As the skeletons' fangs and claws tore open wounds, the ferocious wolf gradually became exhausted, and two skeletons ripped two large chunks of flesh off its left and right thighs.

This caused its originally agile body to begin moving more slowly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, two more skeletons pounced directly at the ferocious wolf's waist.

With a head of bronze, a tail of iron, and a waist of tofu, this ferocious wolf's greatest weakness lies in its waist.

The ferocious wolf, whose movement speed had been greatly reduced, didn't even have time to dodge before being pinned to the ground by the two skeletons.

Then, all the other skeletons gathered around.

With a swift swing of its bony claws, the ferocious wolf was completely torn to pieces.

Hunting points +4.

"Soul Power +0.1".

This ferocious wolf is significantly stronger than the previous ferocious rats and rabbits, and has a hunting score of 4 points.

This propelled Ark directly into the top ten of the Hunting Points leaderboard.

After confirming that the giant wolf was completely dead, Ark commanded several skeletons to pull out its sharp fangs.

In the demand list of Haicheng Military Academy, one fang of this material is worth 0.1 contribution points.

Even a mosquito's leg is still meat, no matter how small!

......

At Haicheng Military Academy, nearly 10,000 first-year students, under the guidance of their instructors, were intently watching the live broadcast of the battle between 180 seed candidates.

The students who can participate in the underground hunting are the best of the best among the first-year students.

Their performance in battle, whether good or bad, can greatly inspire other trainees.

Therefore, under Su Tiankuo's orders, the first-year students would spend the next three days watching live broadcasts of the underground hunting battles and summarizing combat experiences that would benefit them.

A row of classrooms.

One of the students exclaimed, "Look! Gu Zhi Qiu's [Chain Wind Energy Missile] can actually kill a Stone-skinned Lizard directly! His strength has improved a lot again!"

"What's so special about that? Look at Ye Fan, he didn't even use any skills, he just kited and killed several cave monsters with a bladed bow."

"Zhao Yuan also performed well, relying on his thick skin to hunt ferocious rats directly. Although each rat doesn't give many points, there are more than a dozen in a group."

However, some students wondered, "I've been watching Fangzhou closely, but his performance wasn't as amazing as I expected."

Despite possessing the skills of a mid-level apprentice, he relied solely on 10 skeletons to overwhelm his opponent, displaying absolutely no skill whatsoever.

"That's right, half a day has passed and his score has only just entered the top 10 of the leaderboard."

"Look at how he dealt with that ferocious wolf. He could have taken it down with a single Bone Spear, but he dragged it out and slowly whittled it down with those skeletons. It was so inefficient."

At this moment, the oval-faced female student who had asked Fangzhou for his contact information couldn't help but retort: ​​"Hmph, this is a three-day underground hunt. Do you think it's a simulated battlefield where you can refresh your status in every battle?"

"Don't be fooled by how carefree Gu Zhi Qiu and Ye Fan are now. In a couple of days, when their mental and physical strength is exhausted, do you think they'll still be able to maintain such high hunting efficiency?"

Another female student chimed in, "That's right. Fang Zhou is very careful with his mental energy, making full use of his professional advantages, summoning a small number of skeletons to fight steadily, and always paying attention to restoring his condition."

This is the proper model for cave hunting.

Their rebuttals left some students who had questioned Ark speechless, and also made some students who were wondering why Ark's hunting efficiency was not high suddenly realize the truth.

The instructor standing on the podium nodded slightly, secretly agreeing with Fangzhou's approach.

For newcomers who have only been awakened for two months and whose mental and physical strength are not high, it is actually very difficult to survive in the underground cave for three days without being eliminated.

Don't be fooled by how energetic and vigorous some students are now, hunting monsters everywhere. If they don't maintain their good condition, it's uncertain whether they can escape the monsters' pursuit by the third day.

......

Deep within the cave, in the opposite direction from the Ark.

Meng Hongzhuang rode on the back of a giant bear with snow-white fur, looking down at the rankings on the hunting recorder.

Seeing Fangzhou enter the top ten, she muttered to herself, "It seems Fangzhou is starting to exert its strength."

She patted the giant bear beneath her and encouraged her, "Winnie, we'd better step up our game!"

Even if we can't hold onto first place from Ark, we should at least be second.
