Instructor Huang Qiuyue shook her head and sighed. "However, we lack your level of expertise with Skeleton Series Skills. We've only managed to create bionic skeletons from biological materials.

"But once an ordinary person undergoes the rite of Awakening and successfully becomes a Professional, their physiological structure is no longer the same as an ordinary human's. These bionic skeletons, created with traditional biological technology, simply cannot integrate with a Professional's own power system. Not only do they fail to assist in Cultivation, but they also cause severe rejection reactions. That idea ultimately ended in failure."

At this, Instructor Shen Hongyu hesitated for a moment before adding, "Based on my combat experience in the Mythical World, it isn't just us humans from Blue Star who have problems with skeletal injuries and difficult recovery; Abyssal Demons and even other races in the Mythical World face the same issue. As we discussed in class, for beings of flesh and blood like us, the soul and the body are both indispensable."

Although Instructors Huang Qiuyue and Shen Hongyu didn't explicitly state their opinion on Fang Zhou's concept, it was clear they were not optimistic.

Before Fang Zhou could speak, Shen Ziwei couldn't hold back any longer.

She stood up, her expression resolute, and said, "I know the hope for bone regeneration may be slim, but I am willing to personally participate in this research project. Fang Zhou, if you're looking for test subjects, please consider me first!"

Shen Ziwei glanced at the mechanical prosthesis of her left arm and added bitterly, "After all, the situation can't get any worse."

Sensing the heavy atmosphere in the reception room, Fang Zhou said with a wry smile, "Ziwei, the situation isn't that dire. To be honest, this is just a preliminary concept, and I don't have much confidence in its success either.

"However, based on my understanding of Skeleton Series Skills, it's possible that artificial skeletons condensed from Undead Attribute energy could be accepted by the human body. The specifics still require further testing."

He looked at Shen Ziwei and continued, "During a hunt in Cave No. 1, I encountered several Ice Trolls and managed to harvest their hearts. In the Demon Compendium, Trolls are infamous demons known for their robust Life Energy. Even if they lose their arms and legs, they can recover given enough food, energy, and time. I was wondering if we could leverage the research data on Trolls to deduce a skill that prevents immune rejection."

Shen Ziwei's eyes lit up, and she looked toward Instructor Huang Qiuyue.

Instructor Huang Qiuyue looked at Fang Zhou and said, "Fang Zhou, I can help you collect data on that. Our Light Series Professional Association has previously conducted comprehensive and in-depth research on Trolls. From what I know, Trolls are uniquely gifted when it comes to Life Energy. Perhaps they can offer you some inspiration. Additionally, you can look into our failed skeletal regeneration project from a few years ago. You can retrieve the original experimental progress and conclusion reports from the Sea City Military Academy archives. I hope it will be of some help."

Fang Zhou nodded. "Then I'll have to trouble you, Instructor Huang. If I make any discoveries, I will inform you and Instructor Shen immediately."

At that moment, Su Xinyan snapped her fingers nonchalantly. "Leave retrieving the data from the academy to me. Instructor Huang, I'll just need you to send me the project number from back then. I'll write up the application and pull the experimental data from the archives shortly."

Huang Qiuyue opened her personal terminal and sent a string of project codes to Su Xinyan and Fang Zhou.

After a moment of thought, Fang Zhou took out the Life Crystal—purified from the Fierce Ant Queen's Magic Crystal—from his clothes. "Actually, we Undead Mages have always faced a problem. That is, the Death Attribute energy constantly erodes our bodies, making our constitutions far weaker than those of ordinary Professionals. Never mind Combat Professionals; we're significantly weaker than even other Magic Professionals. Regarding this issue, Instructor Su Xinyan once mentioned that the erosion from Death Attribute energy could be slowed to some extent by the nourishment from a Life Crystal."

Fang Zhou looked at Instructors Shen Hongyu and Huang Qiuyue. "Ever since I obtained this Life Crystal, I've carried it with me. From my own experience with it, I can feel a constant, nourishing stream of Life Energy. The effect isn't dramatic, but it's sustained and harmless. In light of this, I believe that in addition to referencing the research on creatures like the Troll, we could also analyze the principles behind how the Life Crystal functions. It might also help with the current research project on skeletal regeneration for human Professionals."

Su Xinyan tapped on her personal terminal a few times, then looked up at Fang Zhou. "Regarding the Life Crystal, I've previously looked into a lot of research on how to prevent the body's erosion by Death Attribute energy. I've also run a few experiments of my own and have some findings to share. Fang Zhou, if you need them, I can send you the data."

Fang Zhou said with delight, "Thank you so much, Instructor Su. Life Crystals are an extremely precious resource, and they're almost never available for exchange in the academy's resource library. I was just worrying about where I could possibly get enough material to research! With the Life Crystal research you're providing and the Troll research from Instructor Huang, I just need to secure sufficient experimental materials. Once I do, it shouldn't take long to get a rough idea of whether my concept is feasible."
