Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons

Chapter 347: Skill Grid Upgrade


Feeling the attributes added by the domain, Burton couldn't help but speak.

"Sometimes I really think, Kane, your identification skills are indeed powerful, even able to identify and discover such a ritual for the set."

It's no wonder Burton made such a sigh, after all, he has been an Explorer for hundreds of years, and he is at a gold level of power. He has experienced countless dungeons of all sizes during this time, and there is nothing he hasn't seen. Yet, this kind of equipment promotion ritual is indeed the first time he's seen.

Kane just smiled after hearing it, without explaining too much.

Longbei took his training shadow from his space equipment and threw it on the ground for Kreya to experiment with the strengthening effects of the new equipment.

As for himself, he sparred with Kane. They needed to feel Kreya's strengthening effects to ensure proper control when the time came.

"Then I'll be leaving now." Burton waved goodbye as he saw Kane and the others start doing their own things, then left.

He was old and no longer suitable for these things.

After a small bout of practice with Longbei, Kane then sat down beside him.

Meanwhile, Longbei and Meizike had also acquired new equipment that needed thorough testing, so the two of them began sparring.

Primarily, Longbei defended, while Meizike wanted to experiment with the quick punch that came with his new equipment. All that could be seen on the field were the traces of Meizike's punches.

After sitting down beside them, Kane took out the gold material [Mysterious Aura] that he obtained yesterday from his space equipment.

Looking at the marvelous scene inside the crystal.

He held it tightly and chose to use it.

The crystal began to break, and the aura sealed inside started drilling into his arm along his hands, making him clearly feel a slight sting in the arm holding the crystal.

Something was drilling into his body along his arm.

Subsequently, the mist began to seep out from Kane's body surface, enveloping him.

Seeing this situation, Lilu flashed and appeared around Kane.

"Are you okay, Kane?"

"I'm fine."

Upon hearing Kane's answer, Lilu nodded and began flying around Kane, observing this wondrous scene.

Before long, the mist dissipated, and Kane felt the change in his body.

He summoned the [Book of Adventure], opened it, and saw that the skill grid position, which originally had a copper border, now matched the style of the adjacent skill grids, and the copper border had disappeared.

He removed the Copper Skill Stone from it and placed a Silver Skill Stone there.

Ensuring there were no issues.

This item somewhat alleviated Kane's dire need, although it didn't completely resolve it, at least it eased Kane's anxiety about the insufficient skill grid space.

Seeing Kane emerge from the mist, Lilu immediately hovered beside him.

"Kane! Kane! Come quickly, Lilu wants to show you something."

"Look, look, don't pull."

Lilu pulled at Kane's face, dragging him in one direction.

Originally, Lilu's hands were small, and when pinching flesh, she could only pinch a tiny bit, making it even more painful.

Following Lilu, they reached the edge of the arena.

Kane looked around, seeing only mountain walls with nothing else, and turned his head to Lilu, "Why did you bring me here? Is there anything?"

"Squat down, it's below."

After speaking, Lilu pulled Kane down to squat.

Only to see a wild flower growing in the corner, peeking out from the crack of the mountain wall.

"What's so interesting about this?" Kane asked, looking at the little wildflower in front of him, not understanding.

This time, Lilu didn't explain but instead hovered directly in front of the wildflower, signaling Kane to watch intently.

Then, she gestured in front of the wildflower, and the flower began to sway left and right following her hand.

Lilu then extended her other hand and waved next to it, causing the wildflower to wave its leaves in response.

Then Lilu nodded her head up and down.

The wildflower opened and closed its petals accordingly.

"What's so interesting about this?" Kane still couldn't understand, after all, Lilu is a Little Fairy; no plants or animals would initially harm her.

And being a Little Fairy naturally came with the means to control plants, which wasn't particularly surprising.

Seeing Kane's expression, Lilu sighed: "Don't you feel it? Lilu didn't use magic power to control it, it followed Lilu's actions on its own, you can try too."

After saying so, she pushed Kane, signaling for him to try it too.

Helplessly, Kane could only squat beside the wildflower, waving and nodding, and the flower began repeating the previous behavior according to Kane's movements.

Seeing this, Kane roughly understood what Lilu wanted him to see.

Thinking of the Skill Learning Artifact Lilu chose yesterday, it should be that she has already learned the Enlightenment Spell and used it on this wildflower, wanting Kane to see her result.

With this thought in mind, Kane asked: "Can your Enlightenment Spell only achieve this effect?" If it could only do this, then the Enlightenment Spell really wasn't much.

Upon hearing Kane's question, Lilulu realized that Kane noticed she was showing him something. She said, "It's not just that, Lilulu only used the Enlightenment Spell on this flower once; after that, it can continue to grow until it possesses true wisdom and a soul."

"Is that so?" Kane hadn't learned that skill and didn't know its specific effects, so he could only trust Lilulu.

"By the way, don't you have another mount artifact? Why haven't you brought it out to use?"

Hearing Kane's question, Lilulu was suddenly startled and slapped her forehead.

"Oh right! I actually forgot about that artifact."

Watching Lilulu's reaction, Kane helplessly shook his head.

Then he saw Lilulu start rummaging through her space, eventually finding the bottled eco-jar.

The butterfly inside was still flying freely, having no idea how this equipment was made.

Lilulu opened the bottle's mouth.

That marked the beginning of the artifact's use.

The butterfly flew out immediately, enlarging as it escaped.

This butterfly was enormous, and including its wings, the width was over three meters.

However, the butterfly's exterior wasn't particularly vivid or beautiful.

The patterns on its wings were very plain, and the overall color appeared rather dull and gray.

Looking at the giant butterfly's head in front of him, Kane couldn't help but get goosebumps. Insects like this, when small, aren't as creepy, but when enlarged, they become quite eerie.

Seeing the suddenly massive butterfly, Kreya and the others were also drawn in to watch.

This butterfly was really large.

"Haha, woohoo." Lilulu flew around the butterfly, admiring it, making excited, strange cries with her mouth.

Then, in a flash, she appeared on the butterfly's back.

"Take off!"

With a shout, the butterfly flapped its wings and gracefully took flight.

The wind pressure from the wings sent the gravel on the ground swirling.

Finally, they saw Lilulu riding on the butterfly, waving around in the air.

Judging by the butterfly's size, it would also have no problem carrying Kane and the others. Its description indeed mentioned it could move weights of 200kg or so.

After playing for a while, Lilulu had the butterfly descend.

"How is it? Lilulu's mount is big, right? It's just that the wing color isn't very pretty."

Hearing Lilulu's words, it seemed she wasn't quite satisfied with the butterfly.

"By the way, why don't you use your Enlightenment Spell on your mount and see? It should be effective, right? This butterfly doesn't seem like a magical creature, but more like a common beast." Kane suddenly thought of this and suggested it to Lilulu.

"Really? Then Lilulu will try it."

Upon hearing Kane's suggestion, Lilulu took out her Fairy Wand and pointed it at the butterfly, immediately using the skill.

A light blue glow appeared from the Magic Staff, then drilled into the butterfly's body.

After a while, the butterfly moved its wings, though it showed no changes, it gave the impression of being smarter or more spirited.

This inexplicable feeling was quite peculiar.

Unlike before, the butterfly now seemed less rigid, turning its head to look at the flying Lilulu and inching closer.

Snuggling up to Lilulu, it slightly lowered one of its wings, standing behind Lilulu's back, covering her head.

Though there was neither sun nor rain here, it was unclear what it was shielding against, but this series of actions clearly indicated the Enlightenment Spell indeed had an effect, making the butterfly smarter.

The group gathered around the butterfly and, after testing its responses, Lilulu put the butterfly back into the jar.

Right, there's still one last thing to do.

Kane took out 7 fully charged Silver Magic Stones from his Space Equipment.

A Magic Stone half-filled with silver energy hung from his neck, having gathered more than half of its capacity.

Most of this Magic Stone Energy came from the ambush by a group they eliminated.

There were over 60 people ambushing them, filling up 6 Magic Stones at that time.

Each Magic Stone required the death of about 11 Explorers to be fully charged.

Before killing those 60 people, Kane and the others had some remaining energy.

While pursuing the remaining Explorers, they originally anticipated 20 people from four squads, but they encountered fewer, with two squads half-defeated.

In the end, they only filled up one Magic Stone plus half a container of energy.

This resulted in Kane collecting only the full energy of 7 Magic Stones.

Nonetheless, this was Kane's greatest gain.

And now, it's time for a major undertaking.
