Chapter 155: Continuous Level Up
Meanwhile, Charles returned to the underground basement and silently left the Edhen through the Twin Leaf.
Soon, he reappeared in the Fire Elemental Plane and looked around the dimly illuminated cave.
Then, he changed his appearance into his original one and then started to ponder.
'I currently have 3 months and eleven days in Edhen time, which means I have more than 6 months to level up here.' He started to think.
'Before the start of the journey to Royal City, I must construct all the spell models and level up both classes to Lv-5. Then, I also have to increase my wisdom power to the level of a Rank-4 Mage. Only then I could fool the Tower mages. As for comprehending the spell models, I will do it slowly after returning to Edhen.' He nodded thoughtfully and glanced at his exp bar.
'Hmm, I currently have 16,529 Exp points. It should be enough to construct another corresponding spell model.' A smile appeared on his face.
He hurriedly shifted his attention to the spellbook option and focused on the [Fire Seed] spells.
[Mind Explosion (17,590 Exp), Fire Invade (14,506 Exp), Fire Thread (16,405), Knowledge Absorption (15,905 Exp), Fire Seed (16,100 Exp), etc.,]
'Mind Explosion.. This spell can cause heavy damage to the opponent's mind upon casting. But I won't be able to gain any information at all.. The next one is Fire Invade.. This spell will let my consciousness enter the opponent's mind and battle against him internally.. Nope, this one is too dangerous. Hmm, the next one is Fire Thread.. This spell will form into a weave-like thread in the opponent's mind and alter their thinking.. More like mind control.. Nope.'
'Then, Fire Seed.. It's the same as before but it can burn their memories 4 times faster. The next one is the Knowledge Absorption spell. Unlike Fire Seed, this fire spell will only burn the opponent's very important knowledge like the opponent's comprehension knowledge, and let the user visualize their experiences for a short moment!'
'It's more like gaining random knowledge. There is also a chance of increasing one's wisdom if the knowledge or experience is very valuable. But there is a side effect in this spell, though.. The user can use this spell on an opponent only once per day. Moreover, the user can only extract one type of knowledge from the opponent's mind at a time.' Charles suddenly paused for a moment.
'This spell is too tempting. Although I can gain the opponent's memories in the form of information using the Fire Seed spell, most of them are not useful at all. In the future, I will face mages who already entered their Inner World. At that time, I will definitely face difficulty in using the Fire Seed-like spell. The opponent might just use his incarnation to find the anomaly in his mind and destroy the [Fire Seed] spell before it could gather important information. But this Knowledge Absorption spell is completely different. Once I cast this spell on the opponent, I will definitely steal any one of his important secret knowledge.' His jade eyes shone in excitement.
He instantly poured 15,905 Exp points into the spell name and entered the Inner World.
Two and a half an hour later, he opened his eyes in the maternal world and soon smiled.
'This spell is a real deal.'
He curled his lips upward and soon thought of an idea. He then subconsciously turned his gaze towards the hovering red-gem embedded bracelet and smiled widely.
Noticing his strange gaze, the Holem's Crown suddenly felt a strong forewarning from the depths of its mind and froze on the spot.
"What are you trying to do, lad?" An old man's voice came as it hurriedly flew two feet away from him.
"Nothing." Charles instantly dismissed that thought of using the spell on the artifact and shook his head.
'This artifact is a stubborn one. If I try something like this, it might self-destruct on its own. Moreover, I can't use this spell carelessly.'
Clicking his tongue, he stood up from the stone slab and walked out of the cave to farm experience.
He first went to Ember Golem settlement and soon noticed more than 30 golems on patrol at the entrance.
Noticing that the other party was already on guard, he let out a disappointing sigh and turned his attention towards the small-sized settlements.
Without any hesitation, he went towards a nearby Salamander settlement and started to hunt sneakily.
Then, he went to the nearby Lava Fiends settlement and continued his action.
Most of the time, he would only choose lone Rank-3 creatures as his targets and hunted them one by one like a sneaky assassin.
Three months passed in a blink in the Fire Elemental Plane.
During the time, Charles raided ten small-sized settlements like Wild Goblin settlement, Salamander Settlement, Ember Golems settlement from time to time and earned a total amount of 82,400 Exp points!
Even he got stunned by the amount of Exp he got from killing.
Although he had the upper hand most of the time, he was also forced to the brink of his death once.
A week ago, he went out to hunt a group of Fire Foxes but ended up meeting a bunch of strange Crimson Birds.
They turned vicious when they noticed his presence and started to attack him ruthlessly using their claws and their strange feathers. Not only that, but they also used some sound spells and disrupted his thinking process from time to time!
If not for the Holem's Crown's travel leap skill and the Ember Pistol's upgraded bullet attack, he would have died there!
Although the attack power behind the Ember Pistol's bullet wasn't a Rank-4 one, it still killed three Rank-3 Crimson Birds in one go, causing the Crimson Birds to stop for a moment.
He used that opportunity and escaped from there!
Casting the brutal memory away from his head, Charles stood on the river shore and looked at the falling waterfall.
Currently, it was already dusk, and the surrounding areas had already turned redder.
'I should level up my both Classes and pay a visit to Edhen before resuming my hunt.' He thought inwardly and started walking towards the hidden underground cave.
During the past three months, he returned to Edhen a few times and brought rations and dried meats and bread from the shops from time to time.
Not only that, but he also started to pay more attention to the kids' safety.
'They are also ready to rank up.'
Charles entered the underground cave with a smile on his face and then sat on the stone slab.
After that, he opened the interface and poured 5,767 Exp to the main class tab.
..
This chapter was first shared on the n(0))vel(b)(j)(n) platform.
[5,767 Exp has been deduced for leveling up!]
[You become a Level 2 Ember Wizard!]
[2 Free Attributes Rewarded!]
[+1 wisdom obtained!]
[10 skill points obtained!]
..
Charles didn't even talk a look at the notification before he pours 8,650 Exp points into the main class tab.
After that, he once again poured 12,975 Exp points and finally 19,463 Exp points.
In few seconds, he became a Level-5 Ember Wizard!
'I currently have 8 free attributes and 71 skill points. As for Exp points, I still have 36169 Exp points remaining.' He thought for a moment and chose to level up the Mischievous Man Class to Level-4.
He once again poured a total of 27,392 Exp points on the sub-class tab and started leveling up his sub-class.
After that, he opened the status bar and checked the wisdom tab.
'Currently, my wisdom attribute already reached 37, but it isn't enough for me. Hmm, I now have 11 free attribute points and 131 skill points.' He thought for a moment and put three free attribute points to the wisdom attribute.
A moment later, a change appeared in his Inner World.
He felt that his whole Inner World and the dark space, which linked his body to the Inner World, also started to expand.
'Hmm, I can perceive the surroundings at a molecular level and my six senses also heightened to another level.. But there is no big change in my Inner World.. It means I need to raise it to 50 points to reach the level of Rank-4 Mage. But if I spend all my free skill points on increasing wisdom, what about my personal body strength?' He contemplated for a moment before sharpening his gaze on the game interface and directly sent all the points into wisdom attribute.
In a blink, it rose from 40 to 48!
Charles's vision turned blurry for a moment before turning into a sharper one.
His thinking process also increased to an unimaginable level!
Not only that, but he also felt that he could even move objects using the wisdom power!
'I can clearly sense the gap between a Rank-3 and Rank-4. If I use my wisdom power, I can harm mortals' minds and make them unconscious. And if I inject a few fire element energies into the wisdom power, I can even force a Rank-1 Mystic to his knee.'
A surprised expression appeared on his face.
'This is indeed a big gap between two ranks.' He nodded thoughtfully and then checked his body status.
