Chapter 292 [Skill Master] & A New Mechanic?!
-----
After dumping over a hundred Skill Points, I leveled to max most of my Skills! The most interesting ones aside from the evolved ones were the old Skills I've been ignoring for a while. Always, whenever a Skill reaches Level 10, they gain brand new effects that can be rather gameplay-defying!
Now Photosynthesis can act even when there's not even sunlight or day, as it can activate if I bring a Sunlight Spirit to enchant me with its sunlight, although the effects are reduced by -50%, it still an amazing passive buff that will always be there.
However, that alone isn't everything, Life Drain has become completely amazing as well, and it is further enchanted as I can merge it with the Great Spirit's Aura I can bring out with my pact with the Great Spirit of Harvest and Nature.
However, those weren't the only Skills that got such amazing enchantments:
-----
[Plant Synthesis: Lv10 (Max Level)]
Using the power of a Dryad, you're able to manipulate the life of plants themselves, allowing you to fuse seeds of two different existing plants to create a new hybrid plant. This costs a variable amount of MP, and the results vary greatly depending in the quality of the plants. Any plant created through Synthesis has a lower rank than the lowest rank parent. The Skill success chance is 100%. If the synthesis fails, there's a 50% the seeds will be destroyed. Can only be used thirty times a day.
Additionally, grants the ability to Synthetize new seeds within the imagination of the user at a greater level of speed and precision, with a reduction in the cost of MP by -50%. The Ability to create [Nature Spirit Servants] also becomes possible through seed creation, such servants can only exist as much time as MP is used for their seed creation.
The [Nature Spirit Servants] can germinate into either [Wood Golems], [Vine Beasts], or [Flower Bards]. Their Stats and Skills Power is enhanced by +50% whenever there is Nature surrounding the user.
-----
[Robust Body: Lv10 (Max Level)]
As a Farmer your body has to exercise in the fields and constantly move to maintain your Farm at all times, due to this, your body naturally grows stronger and capable of harboring larger quantities of Stamina. HP, STR, and VIT are increased by +50%, and your Satiation Meter depletes at half the speed. This effects doubles upon being surrounded by [Nature] Tiles of any kind.
Additionally, grants the Active Effect of activating [Body Reinforcement] by spending MP, which can enhance Max HP and VIT Stats temporarily as high as +100% based in how much MP is spent, and Satiation depletes at half the speed.
Enhances Maximum Satiation by +50
-----
Plant Synthesis now allows for the creation of special Spirits Guardians that are temporary, kind of like Titan's Beast Spirits, but not as varied. With this I can produce an army of plants that can help us fill the ranks of our group and also to work as bait or shields for us. The Wood Golems seem to be tankers, while the Vine Beasts are attackers and the Flower Bards seem to be healers or buffers.
And aside from this, there's also the Level 10 Robust Body, which amazingly now brings an Active Effect named [Body Reinforcement]! With it... well, it is pretty clear but I can reinforce my body and enhance HP and VIT to become temporarily tankier than before. And of course, how not to forget the +50 Satiation I'll get, which is rather insane! I never thought Satiation could be increased like this.
I could had leveled up these skills back then, but before evolving and all, I didn't even had as much Skill Points to spare around. I guess now I can really use way more of them.
However, I am not done yet, I might end up spending most of my Skill Points now, as I've rearranged some Skills in my Status and took away Fishing and AGI UP from the Job Class Skills to learn some brand new Skills within my current Skill Trees.
Ding!
[You have Maxed the Level of over ten Different Skills!]
[You acquired the [Skill Master] Title!]
[You gained the ability to enter the [Skill Forge]!]
...Huh? What's this?!
-----
[Skill Master]
Acquisition Conditions: Max the Level of Ten Different Skills.
Equip Bonus: Acquire the Ability to Access the [Skill Forge]. Enhances chances of [Super Success] in the [Skill Forge] by +20%.
A Special Title given to those that have Mastered over ten different Skills. The gates leading towards the true way to acquire the strongest Skills has finally opened.
-----
"Wait! You finally got it!"
Suddenly, the Guider Spirit pointed out.
"Eh? What's this?"
"That's the Skill Forge! It is a special function. This is where the fun finally begins. In here, you can spend Skill Points to merge Skills together!"
"Eh?! That's a thing?"
"Yes! However, to merge Skills you first need them to be at their Max Level, and only a certain amount of Skills can be merged together, this amount unlocks more over time as you evolve and change classes. Try it out!"
"Then..."
I quickly looked at the Skills I had and then decided something.
Ding!
[You Exchanged 118 Skill Points!]
[You learned the [INT UP: Lv1] [WIS UP: Lv1] [MP UP: Lv1] [DEX UP: Lv1] [HP UP: Lv1] Skills!]
[The [AGI UP: Lv1] [INT UP: Lv1] [WIS UP: Lv1] [MP UP: Lv1] [DEX UP: Lv1] [HP UP: Lv1] Skills have reached Level 10!]
"And now... Skill Forge!"
FLAAASH!
Suddenly, it felt as if time was going very slowly.
In front of me, something emerged, a floating furnace with an anvil in front and a floating hammer...
It is really like a forge, alright.
I quickly selected the Skills and placed them all together into the forge.
[Do you desire to Merge the [AGI UP: Lv10] [INT UP: Lv10] [WIS UP: Lv10] [MP UP: Lv10] [DEX UP: Lv10] [HP UP: Lv10] Skills together?] [Cost: 50 Skill Points]
"I do!"
[The Skill Merging Event has begun!]
[Smash the Skills with the hammer according to the rhythm of the flames of the furnace to increase the chances for a [Super Success]!]
Wait, what?
This is a rhythm game now?!
