Chapter 215: 196: Treatment for Drowning Victims
The skill bar, previously brimming with hundreds of skills, was suddenly cleared by more than half.
And these four skills, corresponding respectively to attack, control, support, and exploration, basically integrated all the several hundred universal skills Lord Zi had previously learned.
Elemental Arrow, the potential of this skill grows stronger later on, with its increased damage depending on the caster’s Magic Damage enhancement, considering its initial value is a whopping increase of 900%.
Magic-Sealing Array is an extremely terrifying control skill. Its range of effect is the maximum area covered by the caster’s Spirit, capable of sealing all elemental skills below silver quality.
The only downside is that, once used, it also bans the user’s own magical abilities, so it’s necessary to plan strategically when employing this spell.
Earth’s Blessing is an instant-cast skill that blesses a specific template with the earth’s boon, granting a BUFF that increases all attributes by 10%, lasts for 2 hours, consumes 10,000 Spiritual Energy points, and has a 10 minutes cooldown.
This skill’s power is undoubtedly great, yet its shortcoming lies in the long cooldown time, only able to enhance one target every 10 minutes.
But if you ask Zi Liyuan what his greatest gain was, he would definitely tell you it’s the exploration-class skill “Elemental Map”.
“Elemental Map” (Silver): The Spirit senses the elements between heaven and earth, capable of constructing a detailed terrain map of all explored areas within the Spirit! (Note: Cannot detect living creatures)
Detailed terrain maps, oh, they include everything, from the heavens above to the earth below!
Within the extended range of the Spirit, it’s akin to activating map wallhack!
Up in the sky or down on the ground, absolutely everything could be seen clearly; if combined with Li Yuan’s Eye of Death and Eye of Shadow, within the range covered by the Spirit, there would be no secrets that could escape his perception!
With Liyuan’s Spirit Value now close to 3,000 points, once he uses this skill, he can control every movement within a 3,000-meter range.
Whether it’s something flying in the sky, running on the ground, swimming in the water, or even lurking deep underground, none can escape his Spirit’s perceptive lock!
A true full-map wallhack!
And that’s not even the most outrageous part; the skill also comes with a map recording feature.
Every explored location will be unreservedly recorded, creating a detailed map.
With this skill, should Lord Zi venture into the wilderness to scout for resources and mineral deposits, he is bound to spot them accurately—absolutely a humanoid scanner, and the kind that can delve deep into the earth’s veins.
Satisfied, extremely satisfied, truly favored by the goddess of fortune herself!
Five scrolls, five skills, not only did they compensate for some of Lord Zi’s shortcomings but also provided more strategic loops and choices during his own damage output.
However, he was not satisfied yet. His eyes, shifty as marbles, once again settled on the skill bar and, at the same time, he opened the Spatial Backpack, aiming at the Nether Crystal Core.
Now having a high Spiritual Energy Value of 250,000, some skills could be enhanced further.
The first he aimed at was the “Bone Spear” skill.
As the Necromancer’s strongest bone-type single-target skill, its damage is unquestionably high.
Especially after leveling it up to LV19, it can inflict tens of millions of damage against ordinary monsters, even against lesser bosses.
However, when facing Hero-ranked or higher bosses, due to certain rule resistances, it often only deals millions of damage, yet it’s still incredibly terrifying.
Zi Liyuan had long wanted to use the Nether Crystal Core to derive an enhancement for the “Bone Spear” skill, but unfortunately, the needed Spiritual Energy Value to create a stronger skill reached a terrifying 250,000!
And now, behind the “Bone Spear” skill, a “+” symbol had already appeared and was lit up.
There was nothing to hesitate about; a simple click and it was modified.
“Bone Spear” → “Spear of Death”.
This enhancement wave directly yielded a mass attack skill.
Yet, this skill was different from typical AOE; it relied on the penetrative power of the Spear of Death to cause mass damage.
If you could say that the “Bone Spear’s” penetrative power was so strong because after piercing an enemy’s body, it only consumed the amount of force necessary to kill, leaving remaining Power of Death to emerge from the body, continuing to adhere to the Bone Spear, impaling the next target until the energy of death on the spear was exhausted, then vanished.
Then “Spear of Death” had enhanced its penetrative ability, and after piercing a target, it does not deplete the power of death it carries.
Which means, if the first enemy took 1 million damage, the next one pierced would also suffer 1 million damage, continuing until it pierced five targets before dissipating.
After casting “Spear of Death”, three long spears of death could be instantly called forth to shoot, each capable of piercing through five targets.
At LV19, “Spear of Death” maintained damage parity with Bone Spear, yet saw an increase in numbers, generally adding one more spear every three levels; now he could summon nine Spears of Death at once.
“Great skill, just with a slightly long cooldown.”
After thoroughly examining the Spear of Death skill, Lord Zi’s gaze shifted to the next skill that could be further enhanced.
“Zombie Summoning” → “Elite Zombie Summoning”
