Chapter 650 Creating More Spirit Links
-----
Once the Link Skills are chosen, I cannot change them back, so I've gotta be a bit careful about what I choose. I already tried taking the strongest Skills they had, such as both of their Physique Skills and other unique ones, but they were impossible to Link.
So, I went for the second bests of them, and these ones ended working, now, I had ten new Skills just like that. It sucks that I cannot level them up myself, as their levels depend in the Spirit Skill Level, but it still rather good.
[You have created a Spirit Link with Woo]!]
[You've Linked with the [Meteor Fist: Lv7] [Lightning Blood Fist Arts: Lv5] [Awakened Strength: Lv6] [Paralyzing Strike: Lv5] [Blood Electrification: Lv5] Skills!]
[You have created a Spirit Link with Fang]!]
[You've Linked with the [Wolf Beast King's Aura: Lv6] [Pack Leader's Commands: Lv6] [Blood Werewolf's Scarlet Claws: Lv6] [Blood Werewolf's Wrathful Fangs: Lv6] [Blood Frost: Lv5] Skills!]
Also, the maximum level of Spirit Link seems to have capped at 5, this is the first time this happens, but it seems that it might also be related to my current Spirit Orb Rank. More higher levels could… or not, unlock as my Spirit Orb Rank increases.
Nonetheless, having ten new Skills was already amazing, and they were skills I couldn't get on my own either.
"Let's see… [Wolf Beast King's Aura]"
FLAAASH!
A golden aura surged from my body, as the head of a giant wolf howled into the skies.
"AWOOOO!"
I felt a powerful, beastly energy rushing across my body, enhancing my physical strength, agility, and dexterity greatly. It seemed to be an amazing buff that drained my Ki and Mana immensely though.
If I combine this with the Claws and Fangs Skills, it could become a lethal combination. Even more if I use Meteor Fist together with it… There's also the new Blood Electrification and Blood Frost skills, both allow my own blood or the blood that I touch transform into ice and electricity.
A rather lethal skill, which in the right places, could even instantly kill a person by blowing them from the inside out. However, I'll have to practice this proficiently. And I said a "person" as someone weak, stronger beings won't die so easily even with these lethal powers, but they'll surely take a big hit by them.
"I'll take good care of your skills." I laughed. "Now, Eleanora, Saphira, Hendrick, let's evolve all three of you so you can catch up with these two."
"Alright!" Saphira nodded. "Evolution! Woow- Huh? How do I do that?"
"Hahaha, it is natural that you don't know, after all we didn't get to see Eleanora when she evolved." Said Hendrick.
"It wasn't anything complicated, we simply use materials from monsters, or other high quality magic items to enhance our own selves. Sometimes we can even attain new elements, such as my Fire Element." Eleanora explained. "Blake, do you have enough materials by now?"
"More than enough." I nodded. "We'll be using some brand-new materials I've acquired in our last fight, and many others we've gathered over the time we've been in here. Including things I've bought in the market as well. Yes, I'll be using demon materials."
"Eh? Demon materials? But that won't turn us into demons? I don't want to be one…" Saphira sighed.
"It won't turn you into a demon, Saphira." I sighed. "Relax. It'll merely enhance your stats, and might or might not provide new Skills."
"I wouldn't mind to become a Demon myself, honestly. So I could experiment on my own powers and see how they function much better." Said Hendrick.
"I said it wasn't going to happen." I sighed. "Now, let's begin."
The special Magic Circles were already made in just half an hour, and then, in each node, I placed large piles of materials, including Spirit Orbs from monsters.
For Saphira, the Spirit Orb of a Phantom Wraith from a C Rank Dungeon I had yet to visit was the core, which I bought rather cheaply in the black market, additionally, many other dark, blood, and phantom materials from a variety of weaker monsters, and also demon materials such as the crystalized soul of demons.
For Hendrick, I decided to add the Spirit Orb of the Venomous Spider Queen, a C+ Rank Dungeon Boss, then again, I could make these my new Familiars, but I am sacrificing them for my Vampires to make them stronger. I also added a variety of poisonous critters materials, and the poisonous stingers of the insectoid demons.
Lastly, for Eleanora, I've decided to add several blood dragon scales extracted from my own body, some blood dragon blood from Ruby, and the Living Fire Spirit Orb I bought in the black market, a C++ Rank Dungeon Monster. Lastly, fire-attribute demon materials and some low-level fire attribute monster materials, such as the Fiery Hounds fangs, E Rank monsters from faraway lands.
I decided to begin with Saphira, as she was the most nervous. The process was incredibly fast, and she was engulfed in a phantasmal power, the very spirit of the Phantom Wraith fused with her, giving her brand new power and an even stronger Phantom/Death Attribute strength.
"Oooh? I look a bit taller! And my dress is cuter!"
Hendrick accepted the materials happily, with no problem nor panic at all unlike the little Saphira. The Spider's Spirit Orb was surprisingly… fitting for him, for some reason, and all the other insects fusing into him seemed to have made him awaken a brand new power, alongside spider giant black spider legs on his back…
"Hahaha! So many legs! This'll make it easier for me to grab things and kill foes."
Lastly, Eleanora underwent an even more abrupt transformation and evolution. Her fire attribute reacted tremendously well with the dragon materials, forcing her to suddenly attain draconic features and skills. Alongside that, her vampiric strength grew much higher, but above all, her Fire Attribute seemed to have become the strongest now.
"Oh my, I can grow scales now?"
