Chapter 61: 061 Enhance Meditation
Translator: 549690339
In the Land of Bone, with Dean McKenzie bringing the elite mermaids of the Merfolk Tribe in, the number of elite mermaids in the Land of Bone has reached 98!
Although it’s not as impressive as the previous upgrade in the Goblin Annex, the scale is still quite large.
Dean McKenzie immediately chose to upgrade his skill,
[You have initiated the[Meditation]skill enhancement!]
Yes, despite having the [Holy Light Ring], which greatly satisfies the demand for mana, the skill that Dean McKenzie chose to enhance at this moment is still the meditation technique.
Firstly, the mermaids’ attributes are quite suitable for enhancing the meditation technique, and Dean McKenzie’s demand for mana has not been completely satisfied by the Holy Light Ring.
Secondly, the experience of Dean McKenzie’s every use of the[Holy Light Ring]to recover his mana is not very pleasant.
Although mana can be recovered, every time during this process, Dean McKenzie always has the feeling of being surrounded by dozens of strong men.
This made Dean McKenzie tremble with fear, as if he might be purified at any
time.
After a few times, Dean McKenzie started to reject using this tool.
This cannot help, as Dean McKenzie’s profession is Necromancer Apprentice, the exact opposite of the holy light, it’s predictable that there would be some discomfort using the equipment of holy light.
“I hope that after upgrading the meditation technique, it can satisfy my daily mana needs, and let the recovery of the Holy Light Ring become a last resort!”
Dean McKenzie said this and began to get busy.
The same procedure, the same operation.
A group of elite mermaids were arranged in a row, as Dean McKenzie killed and extracted, he granted.
The system announcement was constantly refreshing throughout this process. [You killed the[Awakened Bloodline Mermaid](Elite) (Level 20) (97 m total), your level has been upgraded to level 20!] [Your spiritual power has increased to 40.1, mana limit increased to 401] [You have unlocked a new grant quota!]
[You successfully used Talent Extraction on the 97(Awakened Bloodline Mermaids](Elite) (Level 20), gained 97 attribute points, and obtained [Water Wave Restoration Essences] (97 in total)!]
[You successfully used Talent Extraction on thefMerfolk Tribe Leader](Excellent) (Level 20), gained 1 attribute point, and obtained [Sensing Enhancement fragment (Excellent)! ]
[You used 134 Silver Coins to enhance the 134 attribute points of the [Meditation] with the enhancement direction[Mana Recovery]!] [You used 20 silver coins to integrate the[Water Wave Restoration Essence]into the[Meditation], and obtained a trait[Mana Recovery ■ Water](Level 1)!] [You used 480 Silver Coins to absorb 96 Elite Evolutions as nourishment for the trait[Mana Recovery ■ Water]! ]
[You used 100 silver coins to incorporate the[Sensing Enhancement]into the traitfMana Recovery • Water]!]
[Your skill[Meditation]has been successfully upgraded!]
Due to the fact that[Meditation]is Single Force, the Gold Coins consumed are much less than the Dual Force Bone Shield. It only cost 734 Silver Coins in total.
But the effect of the enhanced[Meditation], made Dean McKenzie quite satisfied.
Skill: Meditation (Single Force)
Level: Level 3 (0/5000)
Basic Effect: Meditation Recovery (138 mana value recovery per minute)
Trait: Mana Recovery ■ Water (Level 3)
Effect 1: Activates traits within 50 meters of a water source, Meditation will operate automatically, recovering mana at 70% of the effectiveness of[Meditation Recovery].
Effect 2: Under the state where the trait is activated, it can sense conditions within a range of spiritual power multiplied by 0.5 meters, also enhancing the sensing skill effect!
This, is the skill of Meditation after enhancement.
After enhancement, the basic[Mana Recovery]of the Meditation technique
comes to 138 points every minute.
At this point, including Dean McKenzie’s equipment, the maximum mana value is only 921 points, which can be fully restored in six or seven minutes.
And that’s just the basic effect.
If Dean McKenzie was near a water source, the effects of his meditation technique would be even more terrifying.
Without having to go into a meditative state, he could automatically recover
his mana and also activate a psychic sensing state.
Exactly what kind of state was this?
Dean McKenzie purposely left the Land of Bone and rushed to the side of the
lake to try it out.
The moment he did so, Dean McKenzie was astonished.
It was as though he opened the gates to a new world.
When in this state of psychic sensing, everything within a range of 25 meters was under McKenzie’s perception, covering a full 360 degrees with no blind spots.
Furthermore, in this state, the activation probability of Wild Intuition would jump from 50 percent to between 80 and 90 percent.
It can be said that in this state, no one could come up behind McKenzie, nor did he have to worry about getting ambushed.
This got Dean McKenzie quite excited.
However, after the excitement, Dean McKenzie’s brow creased once more.
“This state might be great, but it has some limitations. It requires you to be near water. If I am not near water, the effect of my meditation loses its power. If only the meditation technique could always maintain this state, I wouldn’t need to worry about mana exhaustion!
After Dean McKenzie had these thoughts, he realized he was asking for too much.
“Sigh, it’s not like I can just carry a lake on my back.
Wait a minute, perhaps I could!”
He was halfway through his musing when Dean McKenzie suddenly remembered that he owns the Land of Bone.
“Can I, construct a lake in the Land of Bone?
Or more precisely, if I construct a lake inside the Land of Bone, could the meditation state still be maintained?”
Saying this, Dean McKenzie decided to try it out, and entered the Land of Bone through the Gate of Bone.
The moment he stepped through the Gate of Bone, a look of joy spread across Dean’s face.
“It works, the state is maintained. This means that if I can make a lake in the Land of Bone, I could maintain this state anytime I want.
At the very least, when I want to be in this state, I can make myself be in this state.”
With the realization of the feasibility of his idea, Dean McKenzie became ecstatic.
“Isn’t it easy to form a lake in the Land of Bone?
Just dig a hole, open a gate, get some water and it’s done!”
Dean McKenzie gets busy as he talks, directing Doggy Two and the others.
They find a basin in the Land of Bone, where McKenzie sets up a Gate of Bone that leads to Mermaid Lake.
Following the opening of the gate, a huge amount of water flows into the Land of Bone and quickly fills up the basin.
In just a few hours, an artificial lake had been formed.
Afterward, Dean McKenzie entered the Land of Bone and with a slightly apprehensive feeling, he closed the Gate of Bone.
Once the Gate of Bone was closed and it became detached from the outside world, McKenzie was pleasantly surprised to find that he was still maintaining his state.
This left him rather thrilled.
He immediately ordered Doggy Two to bring the skeletons in the Land of Bone to him one by one to be killed, and he would then extract them one by one. This was for both the increase of his talent proficiency and for the testing of the artificial lake’s effects.
After all, it was artificial, McKenzie worried it would not last. As it turned out, his concerns were not unfounded.
The artificial lake managed to sustain him only for two hours, providing McKenzie with 13,248 points of mana and allowing his talent proficiency to increase to 332.7/1000, before it began to wane.
Although he was somewhat disappointed with this outcome, McKenzie found it acceptable.
“It’S the equivalent of always having a large potion of mana worth tens of thousands on me. If I add more water to this lake, perhaps it could last even longer!”
Afterward, McKenzie emptied the spent water, and refilled it with new water. During this long and tedious process, McKenzie, now assured of the feasibility of his idea, finally had the time to see the gains from farming the Mermaid
Lake..
