Chapter 143: Chapter 143
===
Since the big event, Juri expected her life to turn into hell or something, but... everything was pretty peaceful, even after creating the Towers.
Less than 30 people knew what she looked like, less than 10 knew her real identity and where she lives.
And none of these individuals are any political scoundrels.
As for the situation with other Continents, she really prefers not to get involved.
The American Continent is powerful in terms of numbers, but if we're talking about quality... as far as she knows, there are 2 Transcendents (800+) in the Continent, 1 is connected to the Order and the other, she has no information, she only knows it exists.
As for the other Continents, because they have different methods to practice and become even stronger without the support of Rituals and Sacrifices, naturally they have higher quality of strong individuals.
Juri has no desire to set foot on these continents, even though she is confident that with all her strength she can stand up to those below Level 500, if she is to face Transcendents who seem to border on the illogical, who are not mere Occultists who only have Negative Energy to support them.
You could say that while the level of the Order's agents is like: Base Level 1, Paranormal Exposure 4!
It's simply a different 4 times in Levels so to speak, and Juri believes that on the other Continents, it's similar to the Dungeon, a similarity in both Levels.
Separately the Levels already give a lot of power, but together... Juri is an example, she with 300 Levels in both, has already acquired 4,500 Points to spend, but again, the Attributes are not important, but what each level range means.
Paranormal Exposure
- 1~50 = Low Level = 10% of Negative Energy converted into Attributes!
- 51~100 = Middle Level = 20% of Negative Energy converted into Attributes!
- 101~200 = High Level = 35% of Negative Energy converted into Attributes!
- 201~400 = High Level = 55% of Negative Energy converted into Attributes!
This above is just the base without any Ritual and Sacrifice, if done, this easily exceeds 80%, maybe even 120~150% depending on what is done.
Basic Levels
- 1~100 = 10~1,000 Points in 1 Attribute, with varying methods of power, but can amplify Attributes to some extent or wield explosive power.
- 101~200 = 1,010~2,000 Points in 1 Attribute, with the power methods evolving into something even deeper and more powerful, and can wield even more power and authority!
- 201~400 = 2,010~4,000 Points in 1 Attribute, apparently the power methods evolve, even if not as differently as before, it just seems that besides greatly increasing power, it is evolving into an area of resistance, such as greater Mana carrying, longer Aura/Chi duration and so on, still need more research to know what this is about.
With the two information above we can notice that the [Paranormal Exposure] is something more secondary, since the power it brings is temporary as long as you keep it fed with the [Negative Energy], if it runs out, you go back to being an ordinary person so to speak.
In the case of the High Level, even without Paranormal Energy, they are still relatively powerful due to the permanent rituals and improvement in vitality and physical limitations, but of course, it has limits.
As for the [Base Level], that's something permanent, the quality is quite distinct!
...
With all the above said, do you understand why Juri doesn't want to set foot on another Continent? She doesn't want to meet individuals who maybe have 500/500 to 1000/1000 Levels, she prefers not to engage or interact with such individuals.
Especially the Asians, they must be very protective of their Martial Arts and Chi Techniques, if they know that she is practicing Chi, they will come crashing into the American Continent wanting an explanation.
If they learn that Juri awakened her Chi on her own? They will deny this and ask for reparation or compensation, wishing for the method of creating [Towers], or even using the fact that Juri has some similarities with Asians and asking that she be returned to her rightful lineage or something.
Juri has learned that compared to the Earth of her past life, the Asians here are even more irrational and paranoid about this lineage thing.
So she who has some similarities with Asians, as well as possessing the ability to exercise Chi, will naturally get into a war of ideologies and all that nonsense.
So what if people are dying and being devoured? She doesn't care!
As she feels she is soon going to her 3rd life in this universe, that is, Version 3.0, which she is dying to know what it is like.
But the reason she hasn't gone yet, even though her life is getting so complex with all this Continents, Countries and so on, is simply because she wants to know more about the Hacker organization that caused all this.
She wants to know everything about them, catch some of their members, torture them to know everything, their steps and so on, then kill them in her next life and avoid this hellish problem.
And Juri naturally hasn't said anything about this to anyone, since even if he did, it wouldn't change anything, since everyone is desperately looking for these bastards.
When they are found, they will surely be tortured for the rest of their lives.
After a long time, Juri received a message he had been longing for!
[You have developed the Skill "Creating Magic Runes, Enchantment"!]
With this, Juri will be able to insert Runes into equipment permanently.
To use the Spell Runes, Juri needed a power base, those being the [Mana Stones], materials from the Dungeon.
She placed several throughout her home and lands, creating Runes of Protection so to speak, but they need constant repair.
But now, with the Enchantment Runes, all she will need to do is connect everything together in a giant Magic Circle of sorts, focus the feeding of all the protection of her fortress house on one specific point.
Simply put, she will greatly decrease the time spent repairing runes every week.
Not to mention that now she can try Enchanting her Firearms, to see how much stronger they will be.
Juri was very excited!
[The skill "Runic Knowledge" has become "Advanced Runic Knowledge"!]
Juri raised an eyebrow, but noted that this Skill was already close to Level 100 anyway, acquiring the Enchantment Runes should only have helped meet the requirements.
And with that, Juri felt that his knowledge of Runes became even more abundant and unique, many ideas popping into his mind.
Dungeon Level 300~350, Types: Physical, Magic and Paranormal!
Juri stretched as she entered the Dungeon alone, which has an interesting theme, resembling those Japanese temples.
She and the others have been here for a long time, since Level 250, for some reason the theme of this Dungeon is not changing, maybe it's something to do with the System or something else.
The important thing is that Juri is here for something specific.
Jumping up to one of the taller buildings, Juri looked at the gigantic city of ancient Japanese architecture, it's quite beautiful and mystical, but what gets in the way is the bloody and intimidating aura permeating the air.
Not to mention the countless powerful presences, whose mere aura exhaling from their bodies permeates the surroundings and makes them change color!
Juri just by being at the top of the building could already feel several attentions on her, she smiled as she picked a spot, so she went leaping through the air to it.
Soon she was above the place, where she soon landed in a large courtyard.
As soon as she landed, movements came from the surroundings, before Onis-like creatures appeared, skins varying in color Blue, Green and Red, 1~2 horns on their heads, humanoid and huge physiques.
The environment itself seemed to distort and expand, where it showed more and more of them.
"Distortion trap? I think that's the 3rd time that's happened to me..." - Juri said quietly.
For some reason there are some places in the Dungeon, where upon entering, the space gets several times larger and countless monsters appear, including...
[Yori Gakamura, Blood Mountain Demon(BOSS) - Level 350 / 350]
A maximum level BOSS appears!
Juri looked at the figure about 5 meters tall, a huge club of spines over his shoulder, among them, hundreds of Onis of Level 300~350, ranging from Normal to Elites.
"Well, I guess it's time for me to test a little something!" - Juri said smiling.
As soon as she smiled, it seemed like the beginning of the fight, as Yori roared and hundreds of Onis ran to attack Juri.
Juri laughed and went into stance, her aura exploding and destabilizing the Onis a bit, but they continued forward without fear!
Taking a deep breath, flames began to explode from Juri's body, flying everywhere, uncontrollably and some of the nearest Onis began to scream in pain.
Juri was simply spending tons of Mana to generate these flames through [Fire Magic].
She was simply just generating flames, not controlling them, so it was exploding wildly everywhere.
But the focus was that soon magic circles began to appear in mid-air, all by themselves, and all the crazy flames, began to come into focus.
3 Magic Circles formed, soon huge flame arrows took shape and shot irregularly.
2 flew toward the demons, but one flew angled upward, hitting a building far away.
Juri discovered by the flames, analyzed this and flicked her tongue in displeasure, but there's not much she can do, it's just a test.
And no, it was not she who generated the Magic Circles herself, but one of her consciousnesses, Juri the Magic Girl!
Juri is practicing for Juri the Fighting Girl to focus on her body, while the Magic Girl tries to help in an external way and... the result was a bit disastrous.
In exchange for killing half a dozen Onis, about 20,000 Mana was spent, it may not seem like much for someone with over 1 Million, but here you have hundreds of Onis, spending that much mana for only 6 Onis? That's a huge waste.
"Let's test the combined Magic and Physical combat later, first let's deal with this!" - Said Juri to herself, soon focusing on manipulating Mana and Elements!
Her body was covered in crackling thunder, then she began to move at a shocking speed!
Soon repeated thunder rumbles sounded, Juri appeared near Yori looking at her with intense eyes, then about 30 Onis were killed, others lost more than half of their HP.
"Hey big guy, I wonder if you have a conscience, but whatever, go turn XP!" - Said Juri smiling and already jumping!
Yori roared and in moments her club came down on Juri, crashing into the ground and a huge spider web spread out for about 10 meters.
But what Yori hit was the residual image of Juri, as it lay before her eyes, before she landed a kick to his face, sending him flying.
Laughing, Juri was falling and countless Onis were running towards her, she then accumulated Mana in her hands, soon Magic Circles started appearing in each hand, normally one would need a lot of skill and magic knowledge for [Double Conjuration], even Skayler had problems with that.
But Juri has [Double Mind], just focus one on each hand and that's it, 2 Spells!
So in theory, if she acquires something like [Double Conjuration] as an ability in the future, then she could conjure 4 Spells at the same time?
As for the previous 3? You could say that they are not whole circles, which is why the power was so weak, even though they spent so much Mana.
But in Juri's hands are whole and complete 1 Magic Circle spells, which have hundreds of Magic Runes embedded in them.
"How about an electrifying dance?" - Juri asked smiling and soon his hands reached out and two huge thunderclaps appeared, a thunderous sound echoing as bursts of electricity engulfed dozens of Onis and spread to the rest.
Electric wires spread for dozens of meters, almost reaching 100 meters, but finally stopped, if Juri had spent more Mana, it could have reached up to 150 meters!
But that would be an exaggeration.
Tap*
Juri landed on the ground, she saw the Onis falling in droves, many "dancing" funny while being fried, their HP zeroing out and finally falling to the ground.
Juri received some leveling notifications, which she ignored for now.
She looked at Yori who looked bigger, just as veins were pulsing all over her body, her muscles tensed and smoke was coming out of her body.
In an instant she reached Juri, attacking and flames exploding from her club.
Juri curiously launched a high kick, clashing with the club, where the ground below her gave way, but with her Chi spreading, minimized the damage where she is standing.
Thus the surrounding ground gave way and flew away, creating a small crater almost 2 meters deep, with a Juri standing on a small stone pillar that looks like it could give way at any moment.
Juri raised an eyebrow as she saw that she lost 30,000 HP, that's because she defends!
"You're strong buddy, how about I get a little serious too?" - Juri laughed and shot forward.
Yori reached out to grab Juri, but it touched her hand and before she could grab it, she forced herself up, her palm closed and she stepped on her closed fist at that very instant.
Next she kicked forward, throwing her legs forward and soon landing a fierce knee to Yori's chin, making him trot several steps.
'Oh, he really has gotten stronger!' - Juri thought as he saw that Yori didn't come flying out this time.
Laughing, she kicked the air, lunged forward again, and began spinning in mid-air, before her foot fiercely struck Yori's nose, followed by exploding flames engulfing Yori's entire face.
HAAAAAAA!!!
Yori let out a furious roar as her mouth closed towards Juri's leg, only to miss it.
"Hey, if you can't come head-on, don't bite!" - Shouted Juri falling down and smiling.
Yori's closed fist came from above, wanting to hit her in mid-air, whereupon Juri laughed and immediately landed a kick covered in electricity on that coming punch.
BANG!
A bang sounded, Yori was forced backwards with her arm shaking and electricity spreading, while Juri was buried in the ground by the rebound of the impact!
"That was fucking awesome!" - Said Juri laughingly jumping out of the hole he had stuck himself in.
Yori had one arm down, which was shaking, he lost the feeling in his arm and it is not known for how long.
"Hey buddy, you're pretty tough!" - Juri said laughing.
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
Yori answered him with an angry roar and his club covered in flames.
"You like to scream don't you? Let me try too!" - Said Juri laughing and soon she let out a shrill and intimidating scream, the [War Roar]!
In the next instant, the flames of Yori's club went out, but it still descended towards Juri, who dodged it with a leap to the side.
Landing on the ground, she shot at Yori's head, landing two knees on her chin, causing her head to rise.
Juri grabbed his mustache, pulling it back and rising even higher, standing in the sight of a slightly dazed Yori from the blow to his chin.
"That's going to hurt!" - Said Juri laughing as he brought his legs together.
Yori shuddered, trying to react, but it was too late.
PREGAR!!!
BANG!!!!
Juri came down in moments right on Yori's forehead, instantly driving him to the ground and taking a huge chunk out of his HP!
Yori's head sank about 10 feet into the ground, Juri crouched on his forehead, looking at his face contorted with pain.
"Hey buddy, did that hurt?" - Juri asked laughing.
Yori's palm came from above and grabbed Juri, who raised an eyebrow, the smile on her face not disappearing, then she was thrown skyward.
In the air, Juri noticed Yori already standing, waving her club in her direction.
'I'm not a fucking baseball, motherfucker!' - Cursed Juri internally, as he had no time to speak.
In an instant her [Sovereign's Cloak] covered her and focused in front of her.
A bang sounded, a little muffled, but nevertheless a bang that sent Juri flying and being buried!
Yori ran without hesitation jumping up and down with her club towards Juri, but then a huge fireball came and hit Yori in the chest, sending him skyward along with an explosion.
Yori roared in pain, but as he was still rising in the air, another fireball came and hit him, causing even more pain and sending him even further into the sky.
And a while later, with a loud explosion, Yori crashed to the ground.
Juri found herself sitting on Yori's butt, her legs bent over his back, she was pensive, while Yori was roaring, but unable to move due to Juri's Chi suppression.
But the important factor is that Yori is weakened, he is at 0% HP, but why isn't he dead?
Unarmed Attacks have 2 types [Lethal] and [Non-Lethal].
After beating Yori so badly, Juri accidentally used non-lethal attacks at the end, so the poor guy was lying on the ground, even though he is a Level 350 BOSS, with 0% HP, he is 90% weaker, a little of Juri's Chi is enough to suppress him.
Now why is she sitting on her ass? It's because Yori wears nothing but a strange leopard thong.
And he has a big red ass that is strangely soft, Juri only decided to sit on it because she couldn't find a better place.
Not to mention that this ass is even a little pert.
She was then thoughtful, thinking about those 3 failed Magic Circles, even though they spent a lot of Mana and had little power, it was still a good test.
If she could improve this even more, she could use it in battle, where in melee confrontation, suddenly an enemy in front of her might have a Magic Circle appear behind her head and BANG!
Juri smiled, having some ideas, but soon she frowned and said. - "Ok, that butt smell is pissing me off, bye buddy!"
Soon Juri pointed to the back of his head, a small magic circle appeared on her finger, earth formed and soon a small stone thorn shot out and ended the poor guy's life.
Juri gained a few Levels, then was surprised, an orange glow appearing as Yuri's body disappeared.
"Tough bastard was actually a treasure!" - Said Juri laughing and approaching.
But his smile froze as he saw a tiger thong lying on the ground....
"FUCK YOU!" - Cussed Juri, looked at the information, Tier 3 Legendary Item, [Protection of Yori's Precious(Legendary)].
That thing gives +1,000% Constitution to the Groin.
"I don't fucking wear that shit, ugly as fuck!" - Said Juri throwing it in his Inventory.
"I can't believe the 1st Tier 3 Legendary Item was such a piece of shit!!! - snorted Juri sadly.
