Congratulations You have learned the Skill Sigil of an Approaching Fate Lvl 1
Sigil of an Approaching Fate Mark an opponent with a mysterious ancient curse allowing you to track the opponentÆs position across distance no matter how large When a Skill or attack his an opponent marked with your curse the curse activates to deal a slight amount of damage Mana cost decreases with Skill Level Specificity of tracking increases with Skill Level Damage increases with Skill Level Number of active Sigils possible increases with Skill Level Current Number 1
While Randidly continued casually killing the attack golems he considered this new Skill Interesting but it looks like it’s the sort that is designed for strong opponents If I kill things too quickly I wonÆt have much of a chance to Level up its abilities But on the other hand
RandidlyÆs eyes flashed If I Level it up enough I can have more Sigils active It probably isnÆt too difficult to remove for those who understand Aether but it might be easier to agree to LyraÆs request if I can place one of these Sigils on her to keep tabs on her
In order to see the effect Randidly used the Skill a few times on some of the tougher golems that rushed over to be harvested by him
Certainly the first thing Randidly noticed was that the Mana cost was not small To activate it took about 500 Mana and then it required about one Mana a second to keep the sigil active In terms of tracking even at the low Level it gave Randidly two pieces of information When he saw the monster he had marked he recognized it immediately And he also possessed an internal compass that pointed toward it
Because his the amount of damage he inflicted was already too high for even these defensive monsters to handle Randidly couldn’t really draw any conclusions from the offensive portion of the Skill But based on the Mana cost Randidly assumed it wasnÆt small Or at least he hoped he would receive a large amount of damage based on the amount of Mana he pumped into the Skill
Besides the actual details of the Skill Randidly was fascinated by the actual formation of the Skill When he used it glowing golden light gathered in his hand until a sigil formed there ready to be thrown out toward an enemy But if Randidly didnÆt throw out the Skill it stayed on his hand and continued to marginally shift
By the end of five minutes of observation it had completely changed But Randidly was endlessly fascinated by the form it took
It isnÆt exactly engraving but it’s also not exactly just a simple construct of Aether Randidly thought as he narrowed his eyes and considered the sigil IÆve always sorta assumed that the difference between Engraving and Aether constructs was just the underlying energy but IÆve never been able to truly connect the two But as I look at this
ROaaR
A towering Level 62 Golem showed up almost double as tall as its fellows It immediately began to stride toward its own doom
Randidly shook his head sadly If you really want to be harvested me so badly donÆt mind if I do
Chapter 973
After finishing off all of the nearby monsters and gathering the almost five hundred bodies of the golems Randidly had gained two more Levels and reached Level 47 Truly spending a small amount of time grinding experience was an extremely relaxing and rewarding experience
But that was ultimately just a distraction Scratching his head Randidly ultimately decided to gamble on the Experimenter Path The further he pushed his ability to create and Engrave now the more it would benefit him in the future
Yet it feels sorta dangerous to invest so completely in one area of myself with all this PP Randidly thought idly But still he trusted his instincts He could always earn more PP in the future But it would be difficult to find an opportunity to boost a passive Skill like this again without the assistant of a Path or a powerful image
When he poured PP into the Experimenter IV Path he obtained 2 Perception 2 Control and 2 Focus for every 50 PP spent With the additional boosts from the Levels he had gained recently these bonuses pushed RandidlyÆs Control beyond 1000
At first Randidly thought nothing of it But almost immediately he felt a very distinct sensation of empowerment Before he actually finished the Path Randidly paused and lifted up his hand to look at it
Information flowed into him about every small muscle group in his hands As he traced the sensation Randidly realized that he could distinctly feel each tendon and nerve ending in his entire body As his focus shifted up into his brain Randidly felt the flow of blood and the slow secretion of neurotransmitters If he desired he could spike the amount of adrenaline within his body in a heartbeat
ItÆs not so much anything really changed Randidly thought slowly The value of each point in Control didnÆt grow In fact the diminishing returns are still there But it feels like reaching 1000 Control opened a door of knowledge within myself It isnÆt just that I can exercise Control but that I was given the knowledge of how to do so
Randidly rubbed his front teeth against his lip It was a valuable bonus Already this strange implicit knowledge made itself extremely valuable by providing several key insights on how Randidly could improve his root avatar training methods for the spear Likely Randidly would focus his efforts toward getting another Stat to 1000 in the near future to see if it happened again But it still disturbed him quite a bit that it had happened
the more I learn the more I realize why the Creature so desperately feared the System Randidly thought with a grimace But I still donÆt believe running away is the correct answer This Path my Path is the right one for me
After experimenting with his new awareness Randidly finished off the Experimenter IV Path
Congratulations You have completed the Experimenter IV Path What waits in the summit That question drives you forward like a taskmaster Many things are sacrificed in the ascent but the certainty that this will be worth it never weakens Nay perhaps because of the lack of assurance your Faith grows stronger Willpower +100 The Skill CreatorÆs Aptitude has evolved into Experienced CreatorÆs Ingenuity The chance of all prior positive outcomes occurring has increased
Randidly was not amused by the text of the Path reward even if the 100 Willpower boost was nice It pushed his Willpower to 920 which meant that would likely be the Stat he attempted to get to 1000 next
Randidly was also not amused that the bonus to the Skill was slight and it hadnÆt even been enough to lift the Rarity of the Skill to Legendary Instead it continued to sit at ancient And now waiting in his Path Menu was the Experimenter V Path requiring 3000 PP
Sighing Randidly began distributing some of the free Stats he had earned in the past couple days When he pushed his Willpower to 1000 he did once again feel the immediate shift in perspective Rather than having increased understanding of how Willpower worked what Randidly received was a sense of familiarity over the varieties of Willpower
A firm Willpower that endured over a long period of time That was a portion of RandidlyÆs Willpower but he often switched it out for other varieties during tough moments
A sharp knife edge Willpower that cut through even the worst mental agony and spat in the face of its opponents This was generally what Randidly relied upon Ever since he had acquired Cruel Indignation of Yggdrasil it was this will that carried him forward Yet Randidly let his consciousness wander finding other methods of using his will
A vast almost liquid Willpower that accepted all comers becoming increasingly influential as it grew
