Soul Devourer Chapter 4 Episode 61 — The Invisible Intruder
On the way to the Hunter Guild HQ in Beijing by taxi, I displayed the status window and reviewed the results of my battle against〈Kowloon〉and〘Hunting King • Regalia〙.
My attributes had skyrocketed across the board, and the skill list had become almost unrecognizable in its fullness. Being able to see my growth in such a tangible form naturally made the corners of my mouth lift.
Alright then, how should I allocate my skill points and vast surplus experience?
First, I invested in the skills within the «Monster-system» that heavily influence combat. If I raise these to level 10 and enhance their effects, gaps in both offense and defense will practically disappear.
『Skill【Vital Sense】Lv.10 (MAX) UP』
『Skill【Regeneration】Lv.10 (MAX) UP』
Ambushes would be crushed at the detection stage, and even if I were hit, I would recover instantly. That alone significantly boosts survivability and endurance in prolonged battles.
『Skill【Azure Inferno】Lv.9 UP』
『Skill【Azure Inferno】Lv.10 (MAX) UP』
『Skill【Riptide】Lv.10 (MAX) UP』
『Skill【Sand Dominion】Lv.10 (MAX) UP』
『Skill【Wind Dominion】Lv.10 (MAX) UP』
『Skill【Thunder Eclipse】Lv.9 UP』
『Skill【Thunder Eclipse】Lv.10 (MAX) UP』
『Skill【Ripple Aegis】Lv.9 UP』
『Skill【Ripple Aegis】Lv.10 (MAX) UP』
『Skill【Air Step】Lv.10 (MAX) UP』
Firepower, suppression, defense, mobility; each is powerful on its own, but when combined, combat ability increases exponentially.
On offense, enhanced attribute magic raises annihilation power. On defense,【Vital Sense】and【Regeneration】, along with magic reflection from【Ripple Aegis】.
With this, even if an unknown powerful enemy appears, I won’t be killed instantly, and I should be able to inflict devastating damage in return.
Next, the «Enhancement-system» to further increase pure offensive power.
『Skill【Earth Magic Enhancement】Lv.10 (MAX) UP』
『Skill【Wind Magic Enhancement】Lv.10 (MAX) UP』
『Skill【Ice Magic Enhancement】Lv.10 (MAX) UP』
『Skill【Holy Magic Enhancement】Lv.10 (MAX) UP』
Now, in addition to the eight elemental attribute magics, both【Holy Magic】and【Debuff Magic】are fully maxed.
My current Intelligence stat is approaching 150,000. Including enhancement modifiers, spells will effectively be cast from nearly 300,000 Intelligence.
Power and scale, simply doubled.
As a result, unusable outside of dungeons.
If I were to cast magic in the city center, the same devastation as the battlefield where I unleashed【Nova Magic】would likely be recreated.
Buildings would vanish, and the surface would be stripped down to bare earth.
I’m working hard to get stronger, yet all that increases are restrictions…
I let out a wry smile inwardly. Even so, for most enemies, I wouldn’t need to go all out.
Besides.
If my own life or my family’s lives were truly threatened, consideration for the surroundings would come second. If anyone has complaints, they can take it up with the ones who decided to make the first move.
Lastly, I spent points on the most important element.
Speed.
In the end, speed is strength.
『Skill【Flashstep】Lv.10 (MAX) UP』
With that, allocation was complete. I exhaled and reached to put on my headphones, at that very moment, the taxi came to a quiet stop.
“We’re here.”
At the driver’s voice, I looked up. Rising ahead in my field of vision was the massive structure of the Hunter Guild HQ.
I paid the fare, offered my thanks, and stepped out of the car.
Facing its towering grandeur, I let out a short breath.
Then, the instant I took a step forward, I activated【Phantom】and vanished.
If I went through the front reception, there was a high chance Chairman Li Wei might be alerted and escape.
That alone must be avoided. He will take responsibility, no matter what.
Remaining invisible, I passed through the doors and quietly infiltrated the guild interior.
My destination is the top floor, where Chairman Li Wei is waiting.
The final resolution is close at hand.
