Chapter 1190: Internal Electricity-Storing Circuits
As I read the Skill Description in detail, I continued practicing my lightning manipulation proficiency. The synergy the circuits had with my blood was the real deal too, making it easy for me to store electricity and therefore, electromagnetic energy inside of my own body much more easily than intended, even with the circuits engraved over my body.
[Internal Electricity-Storing Circuits: Lv1]
Skill Proficiency: 0/20.000
A Special Skill only possessed by the Ancient Robots, which were built by the Old Gods before they created Humanity. Specifically created to function using electricity instead of Mana, these series of runic circuits channel this energy through their bodies, allowing them to move seamlessly.
However, as this is a skill derived from an ability and body part that the Ancient Robots are made with, it has been transformed and adapted to the user's body, working more similarly to a growth-type Cultivation Technique that has covered the user's body from their skin to their muscles with Runic Circuits capable of granting the ability to control, store, and generate Electricity of varying degrees of power.
Available Abilities:
{Electricity Boost (1)}: When storing Electricity inside of each body part or your entire body, you can give yourself quick boosts of speed, increasing Agility, Movement Speed, Reaction Speed, and Attack Speed based on each body part boosted by +100%, with an additional +20% with each Skill Level.
{Thunderclap (1)}: By releasing Electricity inside of each body part or your entire body, you can release thunderbolts that can deal up to 200% Magic Damage to foes, with an additional +30% with each Skill Level. Ignoring 15% of their Magic Defenses against this element, with an additional +3% with each Skill Level. Can merge with other elements to create special types of Thunder.
More Abilities can be unlocked as the Runic Circuits expand and progress in their growth. To progress in the growth of this skill, it is necessary to cultivate, refine, and develop your ability to control, create, and manipulate lightning, refining it into higher tiers of power and fusing with them other elements to create different types of Lightning.
Level Bonus (1): Increases Electricity Storage, Electricity Manipulation, Electricity Boost Buff Effects, and Thunderclap Damage by +50%.
Yeah, it was a very decent Skill, if not rather strong!
With this, I continued practicing for a little bit, until I managed to gather and control the thunderbolts with much more precision.
Alice said I was impatient, and she wasn't wrong with that, this skill helped me in such impatience by giving me just what I wanted, and a bit more as well!
"I can form these spheres of thunder now!" I kept producing them out of my hands. "And because I have endless Mana, I can pretty much use lightning limitlessly- Ugh."
However, my cocky nature got the best of me, the moment I was already thinking I was the best, I felt pain in my soul. It wasn't a wound or something, but exhaustion. Using the Three Divine Golden Thunder Rings consumed Soul Essence, a strange energy within Souls which I had yet to grasp.
"Ugh, time out... No more for now..." I fell to my knees, deactivating the abilities. "I got a bit too cocky using millions of Mana units at once there."
"You sure did! You should not overexert yourself. Unlike other Spells, your lightning comes directly from your soul, so it is bound to exhaust you. I recommend to slowly gather it inside of your circuits so you can have plenty to use for quick boosts of speed, attack speed, focus, and so on." Alice explained, as she sat over my head.
"I guess you're not wrong... Phew." I drank a Soul Relieving Elixir made using Sunlight Crystals and then relaxed near the beach. "Well, let's get this other skill and be done with it. I'll see when I can use the Skill Fusion Tickets later."
I checked the last Scroll I had, the one belonging to Jupiter himself, and quickly opened it. Unlike the previous scroll, this one was of a pure gold color, and once opened, silver-colored runes glowed from within its golden papers, and a message appeared.
[You have used the [False God of Thunder Jupiter Skill Scroll (SSS Grade)]!]
[Please choose one of the following skills to learn.]
[Option 1: [Heavenly Thunder Divine Domain: Lv1]
[Option 2: [Divine Thunder God Physique: Lv1]
[Option 3: [Divine Thunderbolt Spear Arts: Lv1]
Woah, they all sound insane! What do I even choose now? I want them all! I never thought that Thunder would suddenly become one of my main elements, but after all these new skills,
that's a given.
"Okay, okay, calm down Sylphy." Alice laughed a bit. "Let's pick what would be the best first, alright? Let's see... A Divine Domain? You already possess your Class Domain, and you can extend a sort of Domain using your Farming Skills. But yeah, one of deadly thunder doesn't sound bad at all."
"Yeah, I was eyeing that one..." I nodded.
"The God Physique seems enticing, but you already possess a strong physique and got two thunder skills already for your soul and body, it would be redundant and won't bring anything new... Except maybe being able to turn into thunder?" Wondered Alice.
"That sounds really amazing, but I don't think I desperately need something like that either." I said.
"And lastly, a series of divine spear arts. These abilities can be lethal and deadly, imbued with special techniques and powers, and it could be treated as a cultivation technique too, as there are weapon cultivation techniques people learn." Said Alice. "So maybe? You did say you wanted to learn how to use spears, right?"
"I did, yeah... But I am not that desperate. Now that I think about it, my Yggdragon Dual Aura are still not really Domains. And my Farming and Class specific Domains are not that strong either, I need something to further reaffirm my Domain abilities." I said. "But is it truly the best option though? Hmm..."
What should I choose?
