Chapter 171: Interesting New Skills
-----
This is certainly amazing! Although I cannot do much with it, it could still be used for offense or defense. Another element is always nice. Although my Ice Magic will always be the best there is, as that's my Unique Skill.
So, Ice Magic is my main magic while the other elements are there for support and a bit more variety, but although based on my stats, this flame wall can be used to kill monsters, I bet Flayr will evolve her fire magic and become even stronger than my fire attribute skills in the future.
She will become the main "fire girl" around here after all, so I don't have to worry much about developing my own Fire Attribute Skills!
The bad side about this Skill is that I cannot shape the fire I create by using the skill, I can make it bigger through the use of more mana, but not shape it and make fire my element.
But I could still summon the wall of fire over a monster nearby and burn it to a crisp in a second.
Although most monsters and people around here are Fire resistant, so it might not be that good.
Moving on, the Piercing Light Skill was interesting, it let me conjure a piercing ray of light that could be launched towards a certain direction, it wasn't so strong, but it could still do some damage. But because it was light and not solid, it wouldn't leave such big wounds. Perhaps if I could combine it with Photon Bullet, maybe something better could emerge.
And then, there's the Armor Skill.
This Skill works like the weapons, it let me summon the armor… right over my body!
Indeed, it shapes perfectly over my body.
The moment I summoned it, I resembled a dark Knight directly out of some fantasy book, even my aura exuded darkness and the curse of the armor was still there. I felt like my vitality was also being sucked, but my stats had increased too. I guess this is why the other Ice Giants were using this armor despite its downsides, it makes you stronger.
However, I am not planning on getting my luck cursed, for now, so I quickly turned it off as the armor disappeared out of thin air.
The skill that came with it was named Cursed Fortune, and it helps me at… Cursing my own Fortune even more.
What is the point of that?!
But it seems that Fortune is somehow an element or an attribute here. It is something… A Venerable pioneered in this attribute, but it is quite secretive and rare, even to this point.
I guess this Skill lets me curse my own fortune, but not the ones of others.
Maybe one day I will be able to reverse engineer it, but for now, I can't.
Maybe if I can make Runes and infuse them with this, and then make someone wear the item with these runes…
Anyways, there was also Alchemy Magic, and just as its name implies, it lets me use the famous Alchemy Magic! I don't know how to use it though, but Rakasha said that I could make potions and stuff with it… as long as there were materials and some knowledge and recipes.
Synthesis is an interesting skill, it seems to go with Alchemy Magic, and it helps in the better crafting of items through the fusion of materials. It also lets me fuse Skills that I couldn't fuse before.
In fact, this lets me fuse things willingly without having to ask the System to do it for me, and there were some restrictions to it too, so that's why I haven't been fusing Skills lately.
But maybe this can open up more possibilities for me to fuse whatever the heck I want!
Enhanced Vitality and Mana Regeneration is a Skill that… well, this enhances my Vitality and Mana Regeneration a lot! Even more than before, I guess. It could be a nice skill on someone else though… But for now, it is good enough.
I didn't get something like HP and MP Potion Secretion though, what a disappointment…
But I got two weird Skills out of it alongside this enhanced regeneration skill, and those were Revitalizing Flesh and Mana-Conducting Muscles.
It might seem as if the properties of the effects of the potion were infused into my body, my flesh and muscles became stronger, as if I was filled with energy. These skills were passive, but could also be turned off.
My muscles also gained the ability to conduct mana more efficiently than before, meaning that I could theoretically load my own muscle mass with my vas mana and enhance my physical strength to insane levels, but that would also put constant strain on my own body… But who cares, I have an Immortal Body! I guess it goes pretty well with it.
This Skill could theoretically let me go Super Saiyan by infusing all the mana into my muscles and scream like a crazy space monkey until my hair turns blonde…
No, I don't think it will go that far.
Anyways, by eating the Spatial Pouch I didn't get one, but two Skills! Unexpectedly, I acquired the Spatial Perception Skill, which helps me at perceiving all the space around me, even in four dimensions.
And there's something pretty weird going on because I can see that space is made of… endless amounts of layers.
Behind the "perception of reality" that I have, there is like a "backstage" where one can see the fabric of space.
Woah, I can really see it. This is trippy.
And the fabric of space is made of endless amounts of transparent layers.
Let's call them Spatial Layers.
Well, these Spatial Layers are pretty insane, mind you, they help you see space.
I wonder if I could sneak inside this space between spaces?
Maybe I would get compressed into a flat pancake.
Perhaps if I enter as a slime I could survive.
Or my Mana Core would get shattered, and I die…
Hm, yeah, better not for now.
