From food, sword grinding, ironing, and up to bandaging, he was the person who did all sorts of chores.
Even when they did not edit the battles, all could really be seen from him was the ability to conduct the attack and sweep of surrounding areas.
Although that alone was awesome, each time they saw the Jeonshin Weed and built up on the traumatic experiences, and his charismatic self falls short each time.
Not only that, the Geomchis were somewhat of insectivores.
‘But it may be different if we watch it this time.’
The staffs hyped themselves.
They also came to the cinema room and watched for about an hour or so, and were bored.
‘Just fighting golems.’
‘Tired, tired.’
Even after three hours they were still fighting while searching.
The Royal Road footage was played at the rate of 4x the norm.
Endless fighting, monsters wearing away.
From the viewers’ perspective, everything they saw up to the strike of the swords, there was no hint of giving up.
At the end of the bloody battle, the staircase to the second floor was found.
Then, they felt a lump in their chest.
If it’s time for dungeon quests, then most will take the more rational approach.
First, they will gather up each type of the needed occupation, and readied the equipments.
After entering the dungeon, reconnaissance and dismantle traps.
Wizards attacks and archers suppresses!
Also conversely, traps are installed to fight effectively.
There are still a lot of risks; even with the Clerics’ heals.
But this was the most commonly used method most large guilds practiced.
‘It has been a long time since I’ve seen bodies collided like that to solve a quest.’
‘A lack of the combination of cooperation and faith means no way to persevere through this…’
‘Seeing this these days is rare.’
Weed and the Geomchis arrived at the second floor and a parchment could be seen.
Gold skill book!
The Tower of Heroes had prepared the compensation.
Weed read the skill book.
Stone Skin: makes skin hard as rock.
The User can protect himself from Fire and Ice, even sharp weapons.
The Defense increase is based on Perseverance, Physical Resistance, and skill level.
100 Mana consume to activate the skill.
15 Mana per second consume to maintain the skill.
Due to the heavy weight gain, Agility will decrease by 25 %, Damage will increase by 15 %.
Limitation:
Contestant of Basic Training Center.
Available to all.
Must have Mana to use.
A skill to directly protect the body.
In the case of Warriors, they can increase Defense by temporarily increases Morale. This was a bit different.
It is at a disadvantage since it consumes more Mana. And in place of outstanding increase in Damage, Agility declines.
Weed found how he could take advantage of this skill.
‘If I’m surrounded by enemies and cuts come in from all directions, this would useful.’
The other skill is only for the Warriors, those that don’t meet the condition demanded can’t use it.
Then it’s the same as Eyes Tightly Shut!
Stone Skin may seem a bit weak against air-based attacks or charging attacks, but the great gain in defensive capability is useful.
Defensive skills against aggressive attacks weren’t so rare though.
“Skill Acquisition!”
Have learned Stone Skin.
By means of acquiring new Ancient Skill, Intelligence increased by 7.
Wisdom increased by 6.
Having learned the skill, they moved slowly forward to the next challenge.
As oppose to the first floor, it wasn’t dark at all.
It was too bright to the eyes.
On the ground the glowing fire burned, and the flames covered up any sight of the staircase.
Even with the Wizards ability to fly, due the low ceiling above, there was no way to avoid the flames.
“So this is what he meant by walking the path you must tread, huh. Stone Skin!”
Weed activated the skill he just learned, and walked into the fire.
This was the quickest way and there was no going back.
If the quest required this method, rather than coming up with tips and tricks, he took a chance and made a bet by stepping in.
Under special circumstances.
The rate of acquiring Stone Skin’s proficiency will increase 20 % of the norm.
Each step he took, the proficiency increased by 1 %.
Even though the level was still at Beginner, the speed was great. However, the pain had not subsided.
The hardest thing imagined.
The whole entire body was covered in flames. Hands and feet seemed to have dried up as bone as they evaporated.
Before his harassed by flames sight lies the gateway of the second floor.
“Let’s go. The third floor will be waiting with something more interesting.”
A rather confident Weed walked excitedly.
The Geomchis also followed.
The pain in their body transcended.
Something for the likes of the sick minded.
“33 year old bachelor.”
“If I think about girlfriends then my limbs shrivel like this.”
“Can’t be weakened just because of some stupid stage.”
Their pace had fallen along with their speed and vitality, while fatigue jumped with every step they took.
But thanks to Stone Skin, they were able to withstand it of that level.
Stone Skin skill level increased by 1.
Due to the rock-like hardened skin, a chance of bouncing off enemies’ weapons improves.
Base armor increases by 1 %.
Stone Skin skill level increased by 1.
Due to the rock-like hardened skin, a chance of bouncing off enemies’ weapons improves.
Base armor increases by 2 %.
The growth the Stone Skin was a pleasurable feeling.
“Keuheuheuheuheu.”
Weed enjoyed the bodily aches.
Even if it was physical hardship, the growth of a skill was the best of feelings.
For others, they may not want to walk the length because of the pain; but for the sake of the skill, there is no reason to not persist.
Then they discovered the stairs to the third floor.
Weed and the Geomchis sufficiently rested before climbing up the stairs.
Again, they were filled with Health and Mana. And again, they returned to the flames.
“Grow skill, grow!”
With the Stone Skin mastery in mind, the jumped into the flames!
Only Weed would ever come up with that logic.
Stone Skin have reached the Intermediate level.
Increases base Defense by 4 %.
Magic Resistance increases by 7 %, the Mana to maintain the skill reduces by half.
At this point, they could say the inferno was a bit generous.
Along with the Mana cost depletion, the tension left somewhere as well.
Geomchi’s forehead sweated like during a workout.
“Oh cool.”
Geomchi3 body also felt refreshed.
“Master, isn’t it a pleasure to feel the sweat falling?”
The Geomchis sat and relaxed as if this was a sauna!
They stayed on the second floor for a day or so.
Enjoying the pain of the flames, all for the mastery of the skill!
After the means, they mastered the skill and climbed toward the third floor.
In the cinema room, the station’s staffs couldn’t close their mouth while watching the sight.
“Are these people humans?”
“Maybe it’s not that hot?”
They simply had to be dubious.
However, the inferno there was no illusion.
