Chapter 235 - 162 The First Extraordinary Trait (Two in One)_4
After all, they were capable of creating value.
However Dean McKenzie wouldn’t imprison them. After three months, he would still give them the permission to enter and leave the Land of Bone.
By then, it would be up to them whether they wanted to stay or leave.
After checking up on the situation in the gathering place, Dean McKenzie shifted his gaze back to Doggy Eight.
To be exact, his gaze fell upon Doggy Eight’s skills.
The trait he picked up from the recently defeated Benedict Holt was a good fit for Doggy Eight, so Dean planned to enhance him. However, he hesitated over which of Doggy Eight’s skills to enhance.
“The Heart of the Ghost Blade has a good affinity with Doggy Eight’s Strong Stealth skill, although Strong Stealth already has the Trait ‘Power of Shadow’. Although it’s only an excellent trait, it is level 5 and has invincibility, invisibility, and can evade physical damage.
Adding another Heart of the Ghost Blade to this skill would be at most icing on the cake.
Moreover, compared to the icing, it might even be the worst icing. So, I think it would be better to enhance this trait of Forced Decapitation!”
Dean McKenzie said, opening up Doggy Eight’s fourth-turn skill ‘Forced Decapitation’.
Skill: Forced Decapitation (Fourth-turn)
Level: 1
Cost: 10,000 spirit power points
Effect: After activation, attack the enemy’s neck, inflicting 20 times the damage of strength plus agility plus attack.
There is a 10% chance of triggering beheading effect, which can decapitate the enemy!
Dean selected this skill and immediately began. Right there and then, he sacrificed Benedict Holt.
[You used the Summon Skeleton ■ Bone Sublimation effect to start your skill enhancement for your Wraith Servant (Doggy Eighths Forced Decapitation, you have 150 minutes of skill enhancement time!]
[You killed Benedict Holt (Perfect) (Level 14.0). Your level has been raised to 82!]
[Your Strength, Physique, Agility, and Spirit each increased by 160 points!]
[You successfully extracted from Benedict Holt, gaining 500 attribute points and the Perfect Essence: Ghost Blade!]
[You spent 500 gold coins, integrating the Perfect Essence Ghost Blade into the skill Forced Decapitation, the skill generated the trait Ghost Blade!]
[You spent 40,000 gold coins, integrating 1,000,000 attribute points into the skill, enhancing the soul attack direction!]
[You spent 1,000 gold, and the Trait Ghost Blade devours 5,000 High-Quality Essence!]
[Your Wraith Servant (Doggy Eighths Forced Decapitation skill enhancement is successful!]
Skill: Forced Decapitation (Fourth-turn) (Once Enhanced)
Level: 1

Has a 20% chance of triggering a beheading effect, which can decapitate the enemy!
Trait: Ghost Blade (Perfect) (Level 1)
Effect: (Active) After activation, you can directly attack the enemy’s soul, the attack effect is 20% plus 1,000,000 of skill attack
With an investment of over 40,000 gold coins, Doggy Eight’s Forced Decapitation skill achieved substantial enhancement.
What does a single slash worth 999 entail?
Doggy Eight’s slash was it!
Should it backstab Dean McKenzie now, a single stroke could instantly finish Dean off.
With the completion of the skill enhancement, Doggy Eight was full of excitement.
The sky seemed clear, and it felt as if the rain had stopped and Doggy Eight was in fine fettle again.
It dashed towards Doggy Two again.
But Doggy Eight forgot that this was the Land of Bone, and it was supposedly a subordinate of Doggy Two.
In the Land of Bone, by the Bone Throne of Doggy Two.
Doggy Eight’s stealth was tantamount to running naked with its eyes covered, thinking others couldn’t see it, while others could see everything clearly.
Doggy Eight’s fate was naturally pathetic.
His skeleton was again dismantled!
Worse than having his skeleton dismantled, his confidence was greatly frustrated, and he felt nothing but disdain for the skill he had just enhanced.
He couldn’t beat Doggy Two before enhancing his skill, and he couldn’t beat Doggy Two even after the enhancement. Wasn’t his skill only enhanced in vain?
The entire skeleton of Doggy Eight was in doubt.
Dean McKenzie watched with a hearty laugh throughout the whole process, showing not one iota of sympathy. When Doggy Eight was in doubt, he even laughed louder.
After laughing at Doggy Eight, Dean McKenzie then reviewed the experience gained from this enhancement.
“The Ghost Blade trait Doggy Eight got was Perfect Quality from the start. With me pouring 5,000 high-quality essence into it, the trait still didn’t upgrade to Extraordinary.
Looking at the progress bar, it only moved about one-sixth. Looks like it would take at least 3,0000 high-quality essences to promote a Perfect Trait to Extraordinary using just high-quality essences.”
Dean McKenzie obviously didn’t have 30,000 high-quality essences.
He only had slightly over 10,000 elite templates on hand, but he did have quite a number of excellent templates.
After completing the exchange with the Giant Serpent Tribe, Dean McKenzie had as many as 4,000 excellent templates in hand.
However, Dean McKenzie definitely wouldn’t sacrifice all these 4,000 excellent templates.
“The Skeleton Giant templates can’t be touched, Assassin, Bone Shield Warrior, Knight, Mage, Archer need to be kept. Skeleton Warrior is pretty useless, so I can sacrifice 2,000 templates!
I should have enough to promote a Trait to Extraordinary Quality with 2,000 excellent templates plus another 10,000 elite templates!”
So, the problem was, which Trait should Dean McKenzie strengthen?
There weren’t many perfect Traits remaining in Dean McKenzie’s hands right now.
Doggy Eight’s Forced Decapitation skill’s trait Ghost Blade is perfect, but this skill is only level 1 so it can’t be enhanced further.
Old Four’s Guardian Shield skill’s trait Damage Reduction is also perfect. It can passively immunize 95% of attacks from six-turn or lower levels and nullify Armor Break and Real attacks..
