Claire used the badge given by Hubert to ask for a few days of leave for Sirian. The process went smoothly. When the leave was being approved, the teacher in charge of approving the leave pulled Sirian aside and gave him a few instructions, saying that he was a genius and telling him to focus on his cultivation and not to run around with other people.

When he said this, he glanced at Claire several times, which was particularly obvious, but Claire just smiled and didn't care. According to ordinary people, he was indeed affecting Sirian.

After taking Sirian out of the Knight Academy, Claire took him directly towards the place with the most undead in the capital, which was the largest Public Cemetery in the capital. It is located near the Royal Capital Magic Academy. Many students come here to find undead during spell testing to test the power of their spells. This can be regarded as reducing the number of undead appearing in Public Cemetery, so no one in the capital has any objections.

I just don't know if they will kill their grandfather's undead or something when they are testing the power of the spell.

It's not like this has never happened before. In order to verify his conjecture, "The undead can retain a certain amount of memory even after death", a mage went to a tomb at night to dig out the corpses inside, and went back to make the lowest level Bone Skeleton, and let it recover some memories of the previous life. After carefully studying the memory of the skeleton, he realized that the skeleton was actually his grandfather!

This news immediately exploded in the entire circle of mages in the kingdom. The topic lasted for several months before it cooled down. The mages of other departments were happy, so the mages of the undead system went back to check whether the ghouls and skeletons they had made Undead Creature had some blood relationship with them, so as not to make the same joke as others.

After waiting until night, Claire sneaked in with Sirian. After easily avoiding the patrolling guards, the two successfully entered Public Cemetery. As soon as they entered, they saw the tombs all over the mountains and plains. Coupled with the cold moonlight and the protruding tombstones, it was really eye-catching, and some timid people would be scared to death when they saw it.

"Zi!"

When Claire was walking Sirian through a grave, a pair of hands covered with maggots suddenly stretched out from the grave.

Claire didn't even look at it. He took out his big sword and stabbed it directly in. He stabbed it several times. After confirming that the ghoul was dead, Claire took the big sword back.

There is nothing scary about this kind of ghoul that has just transformed into a corpse. It is just a little disgusting. Ordinary people can beat it to death with a wooden stick.

"Look for where the undead are. The book says there are ten undead." Claire said.

"Okay." Sirian nodded and started to look around.

"Just tell me if you find it. You can't catch it." Claire told me again. Claire had made full preparations in the library to catch the undead.

"Understood!"

This is the largest Public Cemetery in the royal capital. Most of the dead people are buried here, so many undead are born every day, and it is not troublesome to find ten.

It took Claire and Sirian less than half an hour to successfully capture ten relatively high-quality undead.

These undead have blue bodies, dull eyes, and no awakened wisdom. They will only wander around their own graves. If they encounter living people, they will actively pounce on them and absorb the life force from them.

If there is a chance, it is not impossible to advance to Level 1 Undead Creature. By then, you will have certain wisdom. But it can only live longer. Every time a certain period of time passes, Royal Capital Magic Academy will send someone over to clean Undead Creature inside.

Otherwise, why would Public Cemetery be placed near the Royal Capital Magic Academy? The purpose is to allow the students inside to regularly clean up the Undead Creature inside, so as to prevent any high-level Undead Creature from appearing and disturbing the normal operation of the royal capital.

"Are you ready?" Claire said to Sirian.

Sirian had already activated the magic power in his body according to the method recorded on Frost Ghost Technique, and then nodded to Claire, "Okay."

Then Claire moved the ten bound undead towards Sirian's body one by one. As soon as the undead approached Sirian's side, it was sucked into the body by an invisible force.

And every time Sirian inhales an undead, his face will become paler, and his expression will become a bit painful and ferocious. Now he only feels that his body is immersed in ice water, and the cold air penetrates into every pore of him. He has never felt such coldness before.

"Can you still bear it?" Claire asked with concern.

"No problem!" Sirian replied through gritted teeth.

After getting a positive answer from the other party, Claire continued to move the remaining undead towards Sirian one by one.

All ten undead souls entered Sirian's body, like mud cows entering the sea, without any fluctuations. But Claire could feel something more. He could feel the magic power in Sirian's body changing slightly, and some changes were taking place in his body.

After tens of seconds, the painful expression on Sirian's face eased, and Claire could also feel that the changes in his body were coming to an end.

He immediately asked, "Have you been promoted?"

Sirian slowly opened his eyes, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and then he hid the depths of his eyes and replied, "Yes, I have been promoted, and my body seems to have undergone some changes."

"Huh?" Claire asked, "Tell me more about it."

"It's hard to say." Sirian frowned, feeling a little distressed.

"I'd better show it to you."

"Okay." Claire responded, taking a few steps back, "Of course it would be best if you can show it."

After Claire stepped back, Sirian slowly raised his hands. A strange magic wave spread through his body. Claire could clearly feel it. Although it was somewhat similar to the wave when the mage cast a spell, it was not the same wave at all, so he watched it more carefully.

Then, with Sirian as the center, ten illusory figures gradually appeared around him. Claire was shocked. The ten illusory figures looked familiar. They were the ten undead souls he had just sent into Sirian's body.

After a few more seconds, the ten illusory figures solidified, giving people a slightly different feeling from the aimless undead before.

Claire leaned over again and asked, "They are under your control, right?"

Sirian looked a little uncertain, "It seems so, I feel so, but I can't believe it."

As he spoke, he tried to control an undead to pick up a stone on the ground. Then the undead followed his instructions and picked up the stone, then walked over and put it in his hand.

Now Sirian finally confirmed, "Yes, they are under my control."

Claire opened his eyes wide and observed the undead carefully, and murmured to himself, "This is not a spell to control the undead. I have never seen Hong Qi use it before. Is it because he didn't use it, or did it change after Cultivation Method arrived in this world?"

Claire is not a necromancer mage. After reading it several times, he still couldn't see anything clearly, so he simply gave up. Anyway, this is not a bad change.

"Are there any changes in your body now?" Claire asked.

Sirian said honestly, "When I just gave the order, some of the magic power in my body was consumed..."

"This is normal. It would be strange if it didn't consume magic power."

Sirian frowned and thought for a moment before replying, "The magic power in my body seems to have become colder."

Claire had already guessed this, so he took out the system he had developed and started teaching on the spot. Sirian's comprehension ability was also very fast. Under Claire's careful guidance, he condensed a simple spell configuration in just a few hours. After injecting magic power, a wind blade appeared as expected.

Later, Claire asked Sirian to condense the spell configuration of the Ice Cone Technique. Sure enough, compared to the Wind Blade, the Ice Cone Technique spell configuration was condensed much faster.

Just as Claire thought, the Cultivation Method of "Frost Ghost Technique" will make the cultivator move closer to Ice Element, making it easier to cast Ice Element's spells.
