Boundless Necromancer - Chapter 68

068. Skill Acquisition (3)

For skill synthesis, I said goodbye to the managers who were watching and returned to the waiting room.

“You have entered the waiting room on the 10th floor.”

But that doesn’t mean that skill synthesis was not done right away.

“Exclusive shop.”

「Contractor Exclusive Shop」

「SP – 500」

「Category: Skill」

「Category: Power」

「Category: Item」

「Contractor: Sangvis Monarch」

「Remarks: Manager You are the first contractor of Sangvis Monarch.」

Go to the waiting room first . Upon returning, I immediately opened the dedicated shop and checked the list of powers.

It was to see the ‘Steel Wings’ obtained through a transaction with the manager ‘Gourmet’.

「Category: Authority」

「List (2/3)」

「Bosspower: Metamorphosis (C+)」

「Bosspower: Iron Blooded Sword (A-)」

「Bosspower: Hand of Death (B-)」

「Bosspower: Steel Wings( C+)”

When I flipped through the list of powers for the second time, I was able to discover the newly added power of glutton at the bottom.

「Boss Power: Wings of Steel (C+)」

「Price: 1500 SP」

「Description: An authority to create wings of steel with magical power. High-speed flight is possible through the steel wings created by magic. At this time, in order to maintain the wings, you have to constantly inject magic power, and when the magic power is insufficient, the wings are automatically released.”

“Surprisingly, it’s not that expensive.”

He said he could fly by generating wings with authority, so I thought the grade would be quite high

…

Of course, since it was a power, the performance was certain, but it was a bit awkward to have to constantly inject magic power.

Even if you don’t, every time you use Sword Merchant (劍氣傷人), mana is consumed like crazy, but you have to constantly inject magic into it.

‘An aerial battle would be impossible.’

Even if there was no choice but to engage in aerial combat, it would go to a short-lived showdown.

This is because mana is limited, and I do not have many means to fill it.

Of course…

“I don’t have the SP to buy Steel Wings yet, so I’ll have to pass.”

At least for now, I was satisfied with the fact that I was able to find out in detail what kind of abilities these ‘steel wings’ had.

‘Even if aerial combat can be difficult, it’s better to buy it.’

Being able to fly was an advantage even though it consumed quite a bit of mana.

Even in the description of the authority, ‘high-speed flight’ is said to be possible, so it consumes magic power, but it seems to be able to temporarily break away from the wire.

‘Or at all, I might be able to get out of the range of the attack right away.’

Anyway, if you can get it in your liver, you will be able to use it soon.

“I should be able to get some SP from the 11th floor ordeal.”

You need to collect enough SP to buy the powers given by the iron blooded lord.

Now that there are many powers to acquire, I have a desire to acquire all of them.

‘I’ll have to learn the steel wings and then buy a Sangvis sword.’

The ability to summon a sword made of magical power would have endless uses, but…

Rather than that, I liked that I didn’t have to use magic myself, and that the level of the sword was determined by the level of magic and swordsmanship.

In any case, it means that the more I grow, the stronger the sword becomes, so I don’t need to find a new sword in the Tower of Trials.

‘If you think about it that way, the Iron Blooded Sword is an A-class power.’

However, that doesn’t mean I can’t buy A-class powers now.

‘Even if I break through the 11th floor, I don’t think I’ll be able to buy this power…’

It was something I would think about only after climbing the tower a bit more, so I immediately turned my thoughts around.

It was time to synthesize all the skills he had learned in the arena.

Of course, if you mix the skills with medium heating, the ability is not what I want, but the wrong one comes out, so I decided to mix most of the similar ones.

Skills coming out in a form I didn’t intend means that I can’t control the variables, and that means that bad skills can come out soon.

With that thought in mind, I looked at the duel rewards in the arena, chose the request, and accepted it.

He mainly learned skills related to shielding and swordsmanship, and there were many other things besides that.

Of course, since most of the grades are not that high, it is unreasonable to use them dramatically, and even all skills have a penalty of not being able to grow… ”

Hmm…”

It also creates growth potential through ‘skill synthesis’ At the same time, if the rating could be raised, it was bound to be resolved.

First of all, it seemed like it would be better to synthesize the skills of the protection system.

‘Even though there is a shield of necromancy, I can’t rely on it alone.’

Even if you are careless and consume all the spirits with necromancy to raise your stats, the ability of the protection system disappears altogether.

In order to make up for that shortcoming, I decided that it would be better to have at least one ability in the protection system.

The ability of the protection system was decided to be based on the ability of the shield of origin, which was acquired from a Japanese challenger named ‘Owaki Yuuji’.

『Skill – Shield of Origin (D-)』

『Proficiency level – None』

『Basic effect – When you memorize the skill name, you can summon a shield made of magic.』

『Detailed effect – The size of the shield and The intensity can be adjusted.』

The skill activation and even its effect are at the extreme level of simplicity…

Rather, that’s why I thought this skill was worth using as a basis.

‘There is nothing as stable as the content of this skill being the basis.’

Of course, the secondary elements may change slightly, but that doesn’t mean that the skills that were used as the basis will not fade at all.

Soon, I selected the skills to synthesize into the shield of the source and activated the skill synthesis.

「Inherent authority ‘Skill Synthesis’ is activated.」

「Browsing the skill list.」

There was only one skill to mix into the shield of the source for the first time.

『Skill – Rock Stance (E)』

『Proficiency level – None』

『Basic effect – Basic durability of the body increases, and parts of the body can be strengthened as hard as a rock.』

『Detailed effect – However, at this time, the durability of the body increases It is not applied when the durability is higher than that of a rock, and the effect of strengthening the body is also reduced.” I was

curious about the posture of the rock, so I got it from a duel, but it was a skill that was garbage among garbage, so I sighed.

However, the ability to strengthen parts of the body was thought to have synthetic value as a protective system ability.

‘Even if it’s not a shield, it’s a protection system anyway…’

Even thanks to the high grade, it was certain that it would help the shield of the source as much as it did.

And…

“The level of synthesis material is not right.”

“The skill ‘Shield of Origin’ becomes the center of synthesis.”

Then, skill synthesis messages came to mind, and the synthesis probability came to mind.

「Skill synthesis proceeds centered on the skill ‘Shield of Origin’

.

」

Since it was just a stable number, I proceeded with synthesis without hesitation.

“Skill synthesis has been completed.”

“A new skill will be created.”

“Oh.”

And at the result of skill synthesis that followed, I smiled quietly.

『Skill – Shield of Taishan (D+)』

『Proficiency – 0%』

『Basic effect – When you memorize the skill name, you can summon a green shield made of magic.

』 The size and strength can be adjusted, and when magic power is consumed above a certain amount, the defense power of the shield increases by 1.25 times.”

There were a lot of changes in the phrases, but it was basically an ability that followed the ‘Shield of Origin’ learned from Yuuji Oowaki.

Even…

‘I inherited the effect of strengthening the durability in the stance of the rock.’

It was not enough to receive some of the abilities of the synthesis skill, so the proficiency was changed to ‘0%’.

In other words, this skill now has the potential to grow.

Again feeling that skill synthesis is a fraudulent power, I continued skill synthesis.

Among the abilities acquired in the arena, there were also F-level skills, so it seemed like I had to organize them first and use them.

‘A grade as low as F- would be unusable even for synthesis.’

Soon after combining all the low-level skills, some of them were changed to be quite plausible.

Should I say that most of them have changed to pretty good skills that are close to E class?

‘Of course, these are protection-type skills anyway, so they’ll all be synthesized.’

Thinking so, I continued the synthesis.

“Skill synthesis has been completed.”

“New skills are created.”

The skill synthesis proceeded more smoothly than I had expected.

『Skill – Shield of Innocence (C-)』

『Proficiency level – 0%』

『Basic effect – When you memorize the skill name, you can summon a shield of light formed with magic.

』 You can adjust the size and strength of the shield, and when you consume more than a certain amount of magic power, the shield’s defense power increases by 1.5 times.] Sometimes,

only the name or minor effects were changed, and there were no major changes.

『Skill – Mirror Shield (C+)』

『Proficiency level – 0%』

『Basic effect – When you memorize the skill name, you can summon a mirror shield made of magic.

』 and intensity can be adjusted, and the created shield can reflect 10% of the damage received.]

Sometimes one effect completely disappeared and another effect came in.

『Skill – Shield of counterattack (B)』

『Proficiency level – 0%』

『Basic effect – When you memorize the skill name, you can summon a red shield made of magic.』

『Detailed effect – The size of the shield is proportional to the amount of mana poured and strength can be adjusted, and the created shield can reflect 25% of the damage received. At this time, as long as the shield is not broken, the amount of damage can be accumulated and released at once.”

Sometimes, the original effect stopped at the line where it was strengthened.

“Now, the ability of the protection system is probably the best.”

I narrowed my eyes as I looked at the ‘counterattack shield’, the ability of the finally synthesized protection system.

‘It seems that the merit of the ability is

a little less than the skill of gray blood.

Of course, even so, the ability to reflect 25% of the damage received by the shield created by the skill was quite useful, so I soon hid my dissatisfaction.

‘Even gray blood doesn’t block the attack at all and it can’t reflect the attack.’

I decided to think that it was just that each skill pursued something different.

「The skill ‘Counterattack Shield’ is activated.]

Concentrating on the name of the skill, I immediately activated the skill.

Keying.

“oh.”

Surprisingly, it was easy to activate without saying the skill name directly.

As in the previous dungeon raid, ‘Eye of Truth’ was activated without memorizing the skill name, so it was possible this time as well.

‘If I can get into the habit of other skills like this, I’ll be able to activate them without saying anything.’

Of course, it would take some training to be able to use it in real combat, but…

Being able to use the skill without speaking directly had that much merit.

Thinking that it would be a good idea to start training immediately after completing the skill experiment, I immediately looked at the counterattack shield that floated on the top of my palm.

Just looking at the reddish shield with a hint of magical power and rising like smoke made it clear that it was unusual.

‘Still, it’s a B-class skill in its own way, and it has a strong presence.’

Tung.

I lightly tapped the shield with my right hand once, but the strength was moderate, so it was hard.

Should I say that if I infuse the shield with more mana, it’s a strength that will withstand how many times I punch it with my heart?

After examining the skills up to that point, I came to a conclusion.

“At this level, I can train for a while and then challenge the 11th floor right away…?”

Without having to prepare anything else, I could just go straight to the 11th floor.
