Chapter 230 Succubus Mist Woman, New Skill [Undead Curtain] (Minor Revision)
As the gray smoke gradually stabilized, Su Xinyan turned to the ark, a confident and smug smile playing on her lips.
"Haha, it seems my interpretation was correct. The patterns on this black magic bottle are indeed intricately connected to [Mist]."
She snapped her fingers lightly.
In an instant, a cutting-edge energy analyzer appeared before the Ark.
A wisp of gray smoke, as thin as a cow's hair, slowly escaped from the mouth of the black magic bottle and hovered steadily above Su Xinyan's palm.
Then, Su Xinyan raised her slender index finger and gently touched the wisp of mist.
A few minutes passed silently, and after some reflection, Instructor Su Xinyan slowly opened her eyes.
"The mist created by this black magic bottle, although its energy level is limited to the black iron level, has an exceptionally complex and unique internal energy nature."
It appears to possess the ability to enhance necromancy-related things, and also has the wondrous effects of shielding from detection and concealing its presence. Its exact limits require further in-depth testing to determine.
Immediately afterwards, Instructor Su Xinyan fed the carefully stripped wisp of gray smoke into the energy analyzer.
Feedback quickly appeared on the energy analyzer's display screen.
A series of complex numbers and charts leap off the page, presenting an exceptionally complex energy spectrum.
Instructor Su Xinyan performed a precise and complex calculation based on this spectral chart.
Then, she gently picked up the black magic bottle from the lab table and handed it to Fangzhou.
"Okay, all done."
Based on the analysis results of the energy analyzer, I can confirm that this black magic bottle is indeed an ancient artifact left behind by the Naraku civilization.
By guiding sufficient necromantic energy according to a specific mental frequency, it can be successfully activated, releasing a large amount of gray smoke.
This smoke enhances the undead creatures within it, primarily by helping them conceal their movements and become elusive and ghostly on the battlefield.
Instructor Su Xinyan continued, "Besides external noises such as sound, movement, light and shadow, and energy fluctuations, the most crucial thing is that it can also have a certain concealing effect on the soul fluctuations of undead creatures."
This means that even under the most sophisticated detection, these undead creatures can maintain a certain degree of concealment.
This is undoubtedly of great value for carrying out covert missions or strategic deployments.
As Su Xinyan spoke, she opened her experimental notebook. Her fingers flew across the keyboard as she meticulously recorded her findings.
Fangzhou followed Su Xinyan in conducting a comprehensive and thorough study of the black magic bottle, gaining a preliminary understanding of its usage and operating mechanism.
After a long while, Su Xinyan gently stretched her waist and casually revealed her beautiful figure wrapped in a silver fishtail dress in front of Fang Zhou.
However, Ark's gaze was not drawn to this beauty.
His gaze remained fixed on the black magic bottle, and that focus and calmness stirred a ripple in Su Xinyan's heart.
Seeing Fang Zhou's unchanging expression, she pouted with some boredom and said, "Alright, Fang Zhou."
"This black magic bottle is actually a white, ordinary-quality undead attribute artifact, and its effect is limited to undead creatures of Black Iron grade and below."
It's useless to me.
However, for you, my young apprentice, it can become a sharp sword in your hand.
"Although it cannot directly enhance your combat strength, with your cunning, you will surely be able to use it perfectly on the battlefield and create miracles."
Upon hearing this, Fang Zhou gave a bitter smile.
His rebuttal was full of self-deprecation: "Instructor Xinyan, you flatter me."
How was I being insidious?
It was just a small tactic used.
Fang Zhou's gaze shifted back and forth between Instructor Su Xinyan and the black magic bottle.
"Instructor Xinyan," he said, "compared to your gold-level magic power, my abilities are truly insignificant."
I'm afraid I can't activate this black magic bottle from the ancient Naraku civilization on my own.
If you hand it over to me now, I might have to wait until it reaches the Black Iron rank before I can truly unleash its full potential and let it shine in my hands.
Upon hearing this, Instructor Su Xinyan smiled faintly.
"Don't worry, Ark."
The reason why the black magic bottle was difficult to awaken before was because it had been dormant for too long in the river of time.
The internal energy could not be replenished, and the magic array structure was on the verge of collapse.
However, during the activation process, I not only infused it with immense energy using my Gold-tier mana, but also repaired the magic array patterns that were on the verge of collapse.
Therefore, you don't need to worry at all about the problem of an apprentice-level mental strength being unable to control the Black Magic Bottle.
If you don't believe me, you can try it now.
Fang Zhou's eyes lit up instantly, and he exclaimed sincerely, "Instructor Xin Yan, you are truly amazing!"
"Then I'll give it a try."
Therefore, Fangzhou guided the mental energy in his mind to vibrate at a specific frequency, attempting to establish a connection with the black magic bottle and activate the intricate patterned magic array on its surface.
This attempt went exceptionally smoothly, much simpler than the countless failed experiments in front of the Yue brothers, Yue Pengfei and Yue Lingyun.
He resonated with the black magic bottle almost effortlessly.
Instructor Su Xinyan looked at Fang Zhou's reaction and a hint of smugness flashed in her eyes.
She laughed and said, "How is it? Doesn't it feel great to use?"
Fang Zhou looked at Instructor Su Xinyan with admiration and gave her a thumbs up, saying, "Instructor Xinyan, I've thought of a possibility."
Based on the research and analysis just now, the reason why this black magic bottle can produce gray smoke is mostly due to the mysterious patterns representing "mist" engraved on it.
Since you can roughly discern the specific meaning of the patterns engraved on this black magic bottle through the technological legacy of the Naraku civilization.
Is it possible to extrapolate this to a new skill that a human necromancer could master, thus no longer relying on this black magic bottle as a medium?
After a brief silence, Su Xinyan suddenly clapped her hands.
"Fangzhou, you are a genius."
What you said is indeed very feasible; let me give it a try.
If we could truly deduce that the mysterious patterns on this black magic bottle could be used as a class skill by human necromancers, then we could make up for our weakness in concealing our presence.
She then turned back to the lab bench, where the microscope and energy analyzer were activated one by one, and she resumed her dazzling experimental procedures.
Fang Zhou did not choose to stand idly by; instead, he stepped forward to help Instructor Su Xinyan.
Half an hour passed quickly.
Su Xinyan breathed a sigh of relief, a hint of regret flashing in her eyes.
"The Naraku civilization's understanding and mastery of necromancy reached an astonishing level."
However, their underlying logic is completely different from that of us humans on Earth.
We might be able to draw inspiration from them, utilize their magical techniques, or even directly use ancient artifacts like this black magic bottle.
However, directly translating this into professional skills for humans is far more difficult than imagined.
Fangzhou nodded in agreement.
He had just personally participated in the analysis of the magic bottle pattern and knew all too well what a formidable challenge it was.
However, human strength is indeed finite, but the power of the attribute panel is infinite.
He quietly glanced at the attribute panel in front of him.
At this moment, a barely visible prompt has quietly appeared above the skill bar.
"Extractable skill materials have been discovered and are currently being analyzed."
