Unlimited Power: The Arcane Path
Chapter 28
"Dear mother of God... what just happened to Earth?"
The end of the world really was a scary thing, to think that it would grant human powers and even bring back creatures that had vanished from the planet millions of years ago… it was just too crazy. Regardless, it wasn't time to observe the monsters. Leon touched his spears and infused them with mana before making them fly toward the monsters.
"Mmm?"
Although they were scary as hell, the pterodactyls were quite weak. Leon's spears pierced them as if they were made of cotton. Leon regretted when he sent his spears flying as fast as possible only to pierce the monsters without any resistance, but in the end, only to get stuck in some trees.
Leon forced his mana to pull off the spears, and this time he tried to focus less on power and more on precision. He made his spears spin vertically and then moved them toward the creatures. Leon frowned once again when a rain of blood fell on his camp… the pterodactyls were too weak.
"Ah... I get it. Their advantage is their numbers and their mobility in the air."
Since they couldn't attack from several directions while flying, they were pathetically weak. In just thirty seconds, Leon eliminated twenty of them without letting them even scratch his fences.
"That was surprisingly… fast."
Honestly, Leon didn't know if those monsters were just too weak of his spears were too sharp. Regardless, he approached the creature only to feel shivers while looking at those big birds.
"To think I would end up causing such carnage… I wonder if they taste like chicken."
It looked like isolation was already deteriorating Leon's sanity; he shook his head to get rid of those thoughts. It was probably due to the fact that he didn't eat meat for months that his mind was working like that analyzing how much meat those monsters have.
Many weirds things were happening, but it looked like Leon had seen only a few of those. He concluded that when he saw a tome near one of the pterodactyls' bodies. Despite the forest being dirty with blood, the tome was surprisingly clean but more important than that, Leon saw some weird symbols in the cover.
"What is this?"
When Leon touched the book, it disappeared, and suddenly he received the knowledge inside the book. He felt a headache, but soon it ended.
Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Freeze Lance.
Cost: 10 mana
Cooldown time: 05 seconds.
A new skill appeared in Leon's skill list. Although he didn't learn the skill by himself, he could make it stronger. That being said, like the skill he could use while equipped with sahuagins' trident, it had several restrictions. It couldn't be used continuously, and it would disappear after hitting a target.
"Mmm… I wonder if humans are learning skills like this. But why the fish didn't drop anything? I killed thousands of them…"
It was probably because only monsters that had a certain level of strength could drop those tomes. It was weird, but it was good for humans; it would give them the chance to learn offensive magic quite fast, something that Leon had to spent months practicing to do… It seemed quite unfair now that he thought about it, but considering that it was something that could save lives, Leon decided to forget it.
"The power of this skill is ridiculously weak… Is it because it is only level one?"
Regardless, Leon had means of attack much more powerful than that skill; he would only use it to obtain a few free status points. Since those monsters didn't cause much trouble, Leon decided to keep the campfire lit during the day from that day onward. The pterodactyls gave him a lot of coins, and if they could give him more skills, he wouldn't complain. There was a chance that he could lure other troublesome monsters, but Leon was willing to take that risk. As long as they weren't dragons...
Now that the battle was over, Leon decided to return to his feast. While he was eating, he decided to reinforce the walls of his camp with steel plates. Now that new enemies appeared, that much caution was necessary. That being said, it would take a few days before Leon could cover all the walls.
A few days later, Leon was making a steel plate while eating blue angel leaves while making a face as if he was chewing the worst sandwich ever. Although he was supposed to be concentrated on the job, his concentration started to wane, and he began to think if there was a way to digest all those leaves faster.
"Mmm… I wonder if I can make potions out of those leaves."
According to Leon's knowledge of fantasy stories, some potions didn't have to be drunk to show effects. There was a chance that his body could absorb the mana from the plants without digesting it. However, it couldn't just pass the mana by touch. So, Leon decided to smash those plants until it becomes a powder and mix it in water. The result was…
Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Alchemy.
You obtained 01 status points.
Leon mixed the powder in clean water, and after that, he put it over his skin, at first he felt a bit itchy since the liquid was a bit viscous. But soon, the feeling disappeared, and the liquid was absorbed by his skin. However, it was only absorbed when his mana wasn't full.
"Great. It is tasty, but I'm already sick of it eating this day in and day out."
Leon made one more discovery, and thanks to it, his training sped up a little bit.
