Chapter 312:188 Corpse Explosion Enhancement^
This lad, ever since he came out of the Land of Bone, was quite at home in the vast mountains.
In just two short months, his strength had grown a full level to four.
Even more surprising to Dean McKenzie was that he had actually brought back
a corpse with an extraordinary template.
Thanks to that corpse with an extraordinary template, Dean now has two pieces of an extraordinary template. He just needs one more to assemble an extraordinary template.
Apart from Finch Olmedo, more than a dozen other professionals also grew one level in these two months, reaching level 3-
Although their power was not a lot compared to Dean, they were gradually maturing with their growth, and Dean’s plan of raising sons en masse was gradually being implemented.
At present, all the professionals, including Finch Olmedo, have entered the City of Bone.
Otherwise, they couldn’t accomplish the promotion process.
Dean granted access to the City of Bone only when the professionals were about to promote to a new class.
However, the only permission Dean currently grants is elementary, and it’s only allowed in a remote corner of the City of Bone.
The reason for granting only elementary permission is because Dean can only give elementary permission for now.
The completion degree of City of Bone is also limited to a block formed by four 100-meter-long streets that have been opened to Finch and his group.
Inside, there is only one “level 4 Promotion Temple”, one NPC in charge of managing promotions, one Block Management Center responsible for renting shops and residences, one small squad responsible for maintaining order in the block, and one task stele next to the Promotion Temple which has not yet been enabled.
This forms a very primitive City of Bone.
Members including Finch Olmedo can enter the City of Bone for 8 hours a day.
This length of time is enough for them to rest and communicate with each other.
There were generally no problems with the City of Bone’s trial operation for half a month.
After all, there aren’t many people, just over a dozen, so no issues arose.
Of course, Dean has no plans to increase the staff of the City of Bone in a short period of time.
There isn’t a great necessity for it.
Dean can slowly perfect the City of Bone.
Anyway, he is not in a hurry right now.
After all, time is on his side.
In the past two months, Dean’s gold mine brought him an income of 480,000.
This 480,000 was basically all used up and spent on a “Bone Tomb .
In two months, the cooldown of the “Bone Tomb” was restored twice.
Dean also used “Death Epiphany” four times.
Each time brought substantial returns.
Four uses of “Death Epiphany” brought Dean’s “Bone Resistance”, “Bone
Armor”, and “Summon Skeleton” up to level 15-
Even the “Skeleton Summoning” reached level 5!
The skills of the dogs under Dean’s command have also greatly improved.
Particularly, the “Guardian Shield” of Old Four, which is now at level 9 naked and can reach level 12 when equipped. This is basically the limit of the equipment.
The “Death Arrow” of Old Nine and the “Strong Stealth” of Doggy Eight have
both reached level 15.
However, the level-up of these skills is not the biggest gain for Dean.
The biggest gain is that Dean has figured out the pattern of skill enhancement.
Of four “Death Epiphanies”, Dean’s “Corpse Explosion” did not increase by 1 level!
Because before each “Death Epiphany”, Dean instinctively made himself forget about this skill, and thus this skill was not enhanced.
Of course, the reason Dean did not enhance the “Corpse Explosion” skill is not because he looked down on it.
This skill is currently Dean’s trump card.
It’s just that Dean hasn’t found a suitable trait to enhance this skill.
The cost-effectiveness of skills that have not been enhanced is different when they level-up, so it’d be better for Dean not to upgrade the “Corpse Explosion-skill that hadn’t been enhanced.
In terms of the enhancement of the “Corpse Explosion” skill, Dean already had a few traits in his hand these two months.
One is “Soul Explosion”, which can deal damage to souls.
One is “Damage Deepening”, which can increase the damage of Corpse Explosion.
One is “Ignore Defense”, which can strip off the other party’s defense traits. These three traits are quite good, but Dean still feels something is lacking.
After all, this skill he is reinforcing is his trump card, and Dean obviously hopes that the stronger this trump card is, the better.
Yet it’s not easy to find a stronger trait compared to these three.
It distressed Dean for two full months before he came up with a solution after not wanting to wait any longer!
“Why not add them all one by one?”
After all, it’s not just enhanced once. The first enhancement is Soul Explosion”, the second enhancement is “Damage Increase”, and the third enhancement is “Ignore Defense”. Boost everything to an extraordinary quality. That should be enough, right?
Such a skill unleashed, it would be terrifying even to Seven-turn beings!”
Once Dean said it, he did it. He injected 500,000 gold coins into it. Although Dean ran out of gold coins, he still had Purple gold coins.
Just those nine evil dragons gave him 27,000 Purple gold coins, which would equal to 270 million gold coins.
Five hundred thousand gold coins? That’s just 500 Purple gold coins.
After the investment, “Corpse Explosion” was immediately elevated to one enhancement.
Then Dean took out another 400 Purple gold coins and opened a “Death Epiphany”.
This time, Dean focused his attention on “Corpse Explosion .
‘■[You have activated Death Epiphany, your skill Corpse Explosion (First Enhancement) has been upgraded to level 3, and your skill Bone Prison has been upgraded to level 13’.]”
‘■[Your wraith servant (Doggy Eight) skill Divine Thief has been upgraded to level 5!]”
In-between the dense notifications, Dean successfully raised the level of “Corpse Explosion” to level 3!
Skill: Corpse Explosion (Fourth-turn) (One Enhancement)
Level: Level 3
Mana Consumption: 3 million
Effect: Use on a corpse to cause damage within a radius of 150 meters, damage equals 4-dimensional attributes of the corpse plus user’s mana plus user’s spirit plus magic strength times 26 plus 30 million.
ps: Whenever the attack range increases by 150 meters, the damage decreases by 20%.
Trait: Soul Explosion (Extraordinaire) (Level 1) (causes an explosion damage to the soul equal to 33% of the skill damage)
