[Good luck and all the best]
Aren saw scenery changing in front of him as he arrived on top of a cloudly space.
He was standing on fluffy-cloud-like things. Around him was clear air with seven different portals of different sizes. All of those portals were dreamy blue with patterns in different shades of blue in their border, while the middle of the portals was a dreamy blue wormhole with golden sparks.
Aren activated 1st Geneslot and transformed himself into a humanoid-dragon body.
Instantly, he felt stronger and additional stats appeared.
[Dragonoid Form]-Supreme
-Body Health: +18,000
-Phy. Def: +5000, -Energy Def: +5000
-Strength: +50
-Agility: +50
"Nice," Aren muttered as he tried to fly using his wings instead of controlling the [Weimbus] armored mobile suit.
*Roarrr!*
From the portals, different kinds of monsters started to appear. However, there was one thing common in them. All of them had dreamy blue patterns on their body.
Aren quickly counted a total of 6 monsters and, for starter, activated his two abilities <Demonic Flame: Zarkhel> and <Icy Enchant> before summoning his Articules gears to attack the monsters.
Aren stood there with his arms crossed as he was five hundred meters away from those six monsters, and he wanted to kill them using his gears.
[Destructo] and [Lech] went furthest while he separated [Slinger] from his arm and manipulated it to go forward before releasing twenty <Demonic Grasp> seeds to trap those monsters.
The five rings, [Pyrin], [Miren], [Reikin], [Georno], [Fein] positioned themselves in the middle as Aren manipulated them.
Once those six monsters were trapped, [Destructo] hammer instantly killed one with its power + kinetic energy explosion.
-45,671
[Raidance Fanged Tiger killed. 300 Path exp gained.]
Along with exp, Aren also felt some strange force entering inside him or, rather, inside the Armalist drive before turning dormant.
"After coming out of enlightenment space, I can easily see my inner space and sense it better than before…," Aren muttered as he waved his hands and released primal conjuring attacks from his rings.
He also saw two more monsters spawned from two different portals out of those seven.
As for the attacks, He went with [Pyrin] as the main ring and used other rings\' energies as a mixture because he had way higher Fire elemental mastery than other elemental mastery. He also had fire affinity, making it easier for him to manipulate those attacks and have them better integrity.
Fire+Wind=Greater fireblast
Fire+Water=Boiling energy
Fire+Earth=Lava
Fire+Lightning=Plasma energy
As those monsters were trapped except for the new ones, Aren released attacks from the rings.
-12,457 Greater fire Blast
Afterward, he released a boiling mist orb on the same monster who took Greater Fireblast, which literally disintegrated the monster and killed it.
[Loka Bear killed. 300 path exp gained.]
Same with Lava beam and plasma shot, as those two attacks also killed one monster.
[Quetal Winged Snake killed. 300 path exp gained.]
The [Destructo] hammer killed another beast as Aren manipulated it to gather 700 meters of distance at almost sonic speed for another kinetic energy blast on the newly arrived monsters.
Four more monsters spawned from the portals as Aren continued killing them.
One monster arrived in front of him as it looked like a two-headed fox with burning flames on its body and five tails.
Aren let this one arrive since he wanted to fight it physically.
*Wistleeeeee….*
The fox let out a strange sound as when it was just fifty meters away from Aren; it released two fire beams from its mouths.
Aren could stand on this strange cloudly land, but he floated by controlling his armor [Weimbus], and seeing the attack, he brought his giant wings forward to defend.
The wings were also scaled like his body, and he wanted to check his defense, so he decided to use the wings as his shield since he could fly without it.
-589
-589
-567
-598
Aren grunted as his wings suffered some damage. However, it was very minuscule. Moreover, the attack was fire-attributed, so it would hurt him less in the first place.
The fox arrived in front of Aren as its five tails started burning with higher intensity and then swung it in front of Aren.
Seeing that, Aren dodged easily by manipulating his armor and swung his thick and powerful tail towards the fox. But he didn\'t do a normal swing of his tail. Instead, he executed a skill through it.
But since he had gained some knowledge on skills, he decided to consume more spirit energy and condensed more power in his tail during the attack. He basically reformed the path of the skill execution since his body could now handle more power.
*Smack!!*
The fox went flying as its body raptured.
-10,357
[Your skill <Heavy Strike> has been reformed into <Heavy Impact>, skill rank increased from B to AA]
<Heavy Impact>
-Skill Level: 5 (Max: 5)
-Skill Rank: AA
-Cost: 250 Spirit Energy.
-Effect: Superimpose spirit energy and condense it to release a powerful strike from either your body part or a weapon. It deals 300% of your normal attack damage. (Intensity of spirit energy condensed and your physical strength combined.)
Aren was surprised, \'the cost increased from 20 to 250, which means the initial cost of the skill was 500 spirit energy. And…300% of my normal attack? But I don\'t know what my normal attack damage is…\'
He then focused on the fox since it was still alive and released another Heavy Strike through his tail after rapidly flying behind the fox monster, but this time, he used <Hyper Charge> by consuming 100 Armalist force to check how much it would increase the attack damage.
-16,470
[Twin-headed Pyrofox killed. 300 path exp gained.]
-Spirit Energy Pool: [16,340/18,350], <Stamina (Cont*30): 7334/7380>
\'That did indeed decrease my stamina a bit,\' Aren checked his new stat stamina. It always existed, but he couldn\'t see it before in digital form.\'
While he was thinking, his eyes were still on the battlefield since more and more monsters were pouring out from the portals.
\'I have to hold back on spirit energy since I have to survive and kill for ten hours. The rings consume 50 to 100 spirit energy in each attack, while [Destructo] doesn\'t consume any. [Lech] consume if I make shockwave attack, but it\'s a waste of spirit energy,\' Aren thought as he manipulated his gears to attack.
He trapped new monsters with <Demonic Grasp> seeds and killed them with his weapon gears.
[…300 path exp gained.]
[…300 path exp gained.]
[…300 path exp gained.]
[…300 path exp gained.]
[…300 path exp gained.]
…
Time passed as Aren focused on managing his resources and efficiently killed the beast for five hours before a change happened.
Those seven portals turned red, and more powerful monsters came out.
\'Hmmm…It looks like I\'ll have to take a bit of risk of injuring myself to wipe them out more efficiently,\' Aren thought as he dashed forward and started kiting monsters.
If monsters gathered more, he would be showered with more attacks, but he had to dodge them and block them while kiting them before gathering a bunch of them together and killing them with one large attack from [Destructo] hammer.
