Chapter 549 The Power Of The [Spiritual Sacred Sanctuary] Skill
-----
Seeing the brand-new Skills I came out with, I felt like I should had learned them when I could instead of waiting until we fought the Boss… With these, fighting it would had taken much less time, although I might had stolen a bit more of the spotlight if that was the case.
Aside from this, it seems the cost to level up Skills has also increased… Now each Level costs 25. Max Level is 20, so to max these Skills I need to spend… 750 Skill Points?! That'll leave me with almost nothing afterwards! I know they're strong Skills, but this is a bit excessive.
They're amazing by themselves, though, so I'll leave them be for now. I might Level them Up later, or on another occasion. After all, I also want to learn the other six Skills available, though, I'll also do that later…
"Elayne, come eat with us, what are you doing all the way there?" Asked Rita, waving her hand.
"O-Oh, right!" I nodded, quickly joining with everyone else.
Eating in the middle of a dangerous hunting ground wasn't something normal, but well, it wasn't as if we were going to get attacked, even less when I had my new Skill.
"Let me set this up really quick." I said with a smile, quickly expanding my Mana and Spiritual Energy. "[Spiritual Sacred Sanctuary]!"
FLAAAASH!
The energy gathered into the formation of a large building, resembling a castle, made purely out of my own Spiritual Energy and Mana. Yeah, it drained Spiritual Energy and MP constantly, but that wasn't a problem when everything around us had been engulfed on plants and trees, so I was constantly getting the energies back in an infinite loop.
Ding!
[You have activated the [Spiritual Sacred Sanctuary] Skill!]
[A protective sanctuary made out of your own Mana and Spiritual Energy is protecting you and your friends from all damage.]
[However, MP and Spiritual Energy are being constantly consumed…]
"W-Woah! What is this magic? I've never seen something like this before…" Said Acorn surprised.
"I have seen… something similar." Said Nieve. "Queen Titania has a similar power, where she can create barriers in the form of castles or buildings to better protect us, and isolate us from the dangers outside… Also, I've seen that angel-like player use something similar, remember?"
"Oh yeah, the library guys obsessed with story and stuff!" Rita laughed. "But this far surpasses whatever those could do! Holy shit, Elayne you've become so amazing… I am a bit envious. Wait, maybe I could make something similar but in the shape of an evil castle… or a tower… Ah, I'll leave that for later though." Rita shrugged, eating a sandwich.
"It sure is amazing looking, is it a new Skill you learned from the Yggdryad Skill Tree?" Wondered Mark.
"Yep, it can also help me drain HP and MP from those that hit the barrier, like that guy over there." I pointed at a Cave Drake that had just arrived, he was constantly hitting the barrier with his horns.
CLASH! CLASH! CRASH!
However, a single monster wasn't going to drain all my MP or Spiritual Energy, even less when I wasn't attacking either.
Ding!
[The [Cave Drake: Lv93] has dealt 1320 Damage to your Barrier!]
[You have recovered 330 HP and MP.]
[The [Cave Drake: Lv93] has dealt 1142 Damage to your Barrier!]
[You have recovered 285 HP and MP.]
[The [Cave Drake: Lv93] has dealt 1230 Damage to your Barrier!]
[You have recovered 307 HP and MP.]
[…]
"So yeah, let's just ignore that guy over there for now." I said. "Anyways, about the Library Guys? It is not that they've been not present because they're lazy or something… Actually, I get messages from them almost daily. They're all adults, so they work the majority of the week except the weekend, they can't log-in every day either, sadly. Though lately they have gone to an adventure to the other side of the Continent of Verdant, where there are reports from people that had seen large ponds of Nether, a liquid related to the Demon King of Death… It might be our next stop after we're done solving this mystery over here."
"Oh, I see, so they had not been just ghosting us…" Said Rita with a sigh.
"Who are these nerds you guys are talking about?" Jenny wondered.
"Well…" I said, as I explained to her who they were.
"Oooh! I see, they're pretty strong friends you've got there then." Jenny giggled. "Anyways, how long till we meet the quest requirements for the materials?"
"Let me see…" I checked the quest again.
-----
[Bring Richard the following Materials]:
[Lesser Blue Dragon's Blood]: 0/10
[Cave Drake Scales]: 20/20
[Little Red Dragon's Claws]: 0/5
[Poisonous Viper Drake Guts]: 10/10
-----
"Obviously, based in how many we've killed, we've already meet the requirements for the Viper and Cave Drake materials." I nodded.
Once the monsters died, they simply explode into particles of light and become items, which you can simply grab and store, the same happened here, after all the dragons were dead, scales, meat, limbs, eyes, and other materials were left behind, including a lot of gold too.
"So we need to kill at least ten Lesser Blue Dragons and five Little Red Dragons…" Nieve said. "Well, this time we should make it quick, facing another Boss wouldn't be the best decision. I am beginning to suspect every Dragon Race might have some sort of King or Queen in the Dragon Lair…"
"Yeah, a Cave Drake King could be near, so we shouldn't really risk facing that." Mark nodded. "The map shows where the blue and red dragons are located, luckily they share a same habitat, so we can pick them all easily."
"Nice." Said Acorn. "Then let's get to it! After eating these sandwiches all my energy's back to full! Even the dizziness I felt is gone, amazing. Your food is really the thing of miracles, Lady Planta."
"Indeed, and it is really tasty." Nieve smiled sweetly.
"Aww, you two are making me blush a bit…" I sighed. "Well! Let's get going then."
