Chapter 220 - Noble-born Vamprie Marquis Skill Tree
-----
Noah glanced with wonder at his new Skill Tree, it seemed to offer a lot of new Abilities that could come of great use for him and the journey ahead of his path.
[Level: V]
[Noble-Born Vampire Marquis (0/7000)]: Spend Skill Points into this branch to unlock more of the innate strength of the Blood Progenitor, such as bonus Attribute Values, Skills, and more.
Additional Abilities can be unlocked after the Branch is Maxed.
Additional Abilities (I): [Bloodline Master: Detect Bloodline (0/8000)], [Bloodline Master: Bloodline Devour (0/8500)], [Bloodline Master: Bloodline Assimilation (0/9000)]
Additional Abilities (II): [Spectral Blood Demon Guardian: Bloody Guard (0/9500)], [Spectral Blood Demon Guardian: Bloodthirsty Crazed Jabs (0/10000)], [Spectral Blood Demon Guardian: Crimson Slaughter (0/10500)]
Additional Abilities (III): [Supernatural Vampiric Senses: Danger Perception (0/11500)], [Supernatural Vampiric Senses: Foresight (0/12000)], [Supernatural Vampiric Senses: Universal Orientation (0/13000)]
However, the costs seemed rather outlandish, he wondered if with the Skill Points he had it would be enough to get everything right away.
He had 96000 Skill Points, and to get everything here, he would need 92000… it seemed that he was able to barely grasp everything.
The abilities included here seemed to be outstanding, such as the first branch that seemed to give him the ability to devour and assimilate other bloodlines, which could open up a path for limitless growth through the assimilating of hidden powers within the bloodlines of many races across all worlds.
As if it were not obvious already, Detect Bloodline could probably help him detect a bloodline, while Bloodline Devour to devour one, and then Bloodline Assimilation to assimilate one and acquire its powers…
Could there be the possibility for such bloodlines to appear as their own skill trees? Or maybe, as they were fused with him, the powers of such bloodlines would show up through this Skill Tree… Well, Noah was wondering many things.
After that came to Spectral Guardian… this Skill was very similar to Beelzebub.
Noah wondered that if those Ability Cores he converted into Skill Points somehow affected the powers he got from his Skill Tree, covering such powers into his own and changing them, modifying their appearances and powers through this. It made some sense to Noah, and it could explain things such as the elemental blood gem skill.
This series of Skills all went around summoning a large humanoid specter from Noah's soul, not to be confused with his Soul-Beast form, which was different. This Specter could fight independently and even protect Noah, something that made Noah be reminded of a certain Japanese series he once said archived within an antique of things that existed before the apocalypse… something about a Bizarre Adventure.
Nonetheless, this could also be seen as a modified version of Beelzebub's Spectral Soul Ability, which also made sense to Noah.
Afterward, there was a skill he had always wanted, Vampiric Senses.
Well, his senses were already sharp and amazing as they were, but he never truly got a Skill to enhance it. But now, he got three of them, each one bringing a new way of doing and sensing things.
One of them seemed to be an even better version of Emerald's Skill, Danger Perception, alongside Foresight, and even Universal Orientation, all of such Skills sounding very promising for Noah's growth.
Without further ado, Noah began to pour Skill Points into the new Skill Tree.
Ding!
[You exchanged 7000 Skill Points!]
[The [Noble-Born Vampire Marquis] branch has been maxed!]
[You gained bonus Skill Proficiency]
[The [Fartalk: 100 (A)] Skill has awakened into the [Telepathy Network: 1 (S)] Skill!]
[The [Toxic and Poisonous Fluid Secretion: 100 (B)] Skill has awakened into the [Chemical Fluids Secretion: 1 (A)] Skill!]

[The [Blood Mist: 100 (B)] Skill has awakened into the [Crimson Mist: 1 (A)] Skill!]
A lot of Skills have suddenly awakened, startling Noah for a small second, as he glanced with wonder at them.
His Fartalk Skill, which let him speak through telepathy from very far away places had now become Telepathy Network, which let him connect with many people's minds at once, creating a telepathy network where thoughts, images, and even memories could be shared from almost infinitely large distances! It was truly a network of telepathy now, fitting to have become an S-Rank Skill.
The [Chemical Fluids Secretion: 1 (A)] Skill seemed to be a better version than its predecessor, now Noah was not too restricted to create poisonous or toxic fluids but could edit them to make chemical compounds to an extent, although their intensity and what he could make was limited to the natural compounds within his blood, so he could not do anything too insane, although throwing an acidic substance at people's faces was now an option.
The [Bloodline Curse: 100 (B)] Skill awakened into the [Bloodline Soul Curse: 1 (A)] Skill, which gave Noah an even greater grasp over cursing other beings, not only their bloodlines could be targeted, but even their souls to an extent, making of its uses even greater than before.
The [Blood Elixir: 100 (B)] Skill awakened into the [Great Blood Panacea: 1 (A)] Skill, giving Noah the ability to heal things even more, and even heal various diseases and negative status effects. Of course, all of such effects were also his, so he could heal even faster from any of such attacks.
The [Blood Detonation: 100 (B)] Skill awakened into the [Blood Bomb: 1 (A)] Skill, letting Noah make literal bombs out of his blood with even more freedom, making of anything he touched with his blood a deadly weapon.
The [Elemental Blood Gem Creation: 100 (B)] Skill awakened into the [Elemental Blood Soul Jewel Creation: 1 (A)] Skill, which let Noah conjure his own blood as elemental jewels, making them deadly long-ranged attacks that could carry a part of the might of other elements.
The [Blood Beast Transformation: 100 (B)] Skill awakened into the [Rampaging Blood Lycan Transformation: 1 (A)] Skill, giving Noah the ability to coat himself with a Lycan-like transformation made of pure blood, a monstrous and aggressive beast which enhanced all of his power in exchange for making him wilder… but he was already quite insane, so it didn't bother him much.
The [Blood for Blood: 100 (B)] Skill and the [Vitality Veil: 100 (B)] Skill merged and awakened into the [Blood-sucking Soul Veil: 1 (A)] Skill, giving Noah the power to coat himself in a veil made of his blood and soul that could also suck vitality and blood from enemies.
The [Moon Protection: 100 (B)] Skill awakened into the [Night Ward: 1 (A)] Skill, giving Noah greater enhancements at night, even if there was not moonlight bathing him.
The [Blood Mist: 100 (B)] Skill awakened into the [Crimson Mist: 1 (A)] Skill, making of the mist he produced become denser and thicker, more suitable for interesting ways of combat.
After this, Noah decided to acquire the other Skills.
