MTL - Spellcasting is a Permanent Addition and My Skills Are All Forbidden Spells

Chapter 152 The evolution of the metal flower spirit, the secret core of the ruins, and the mark of the gods!

 Looking across the statue, Lu Cheng's mind turned.

This statue of the God of Luck has been silent since its restoration, but now it is buzzing.

“Is it possible that this mark was left by the God of Luck?”

Lu Cheng made a guess in his mind.

The God of Luck has also explored the ruins of Toya, so it is reasonable to leave a mark.

But why hasn’t it been repaired like the gate?

Thinking to himself, Lu Cheng took out the statue of the God of Luck and stepped forward.

Sure enough, as he approached the notch, the buzzing of the statue became louder.

Looking at this scene, Lu Cheng nodded secretly.

 In this way, his guess was confirmed.

This statue reacts to the scratches, which proves that the scratches are probably really related to the God of Luck!

Thinking in his mind, Lu Cheng continued to walk forward.

 As he approached the mark, the statue in his hand suddenly glowed with brilliance!

This ray of light swept from bottom to top, and then fell into the air, vaguely forming an arrow pointing to the right.

 Coincidentally, the direction pointed by the arrow happened to be the same as the direction he wanted to go!

In mid-air, the brilliance arrow flickered, and then dispersed, but did not disappear, but fell on the terrain map, guiding a route.

“Is this... the God of Luck’s exploration route?”

Thinking in his mind, Lu Cheng glanced at the terrain map.

This route is quite long, passing through twenty or thirty passages, but it leads exactly to the location of the Source Energy Hub!

Seeing this, Lu Cheng's heart moved.

The interior of the Toya ruins is like a honeycomb, with countless passages and rooms, and hundreds of routes that can be taken.

 But the God of Luck’s exploration route happened to be the same as his.

He took this route to get to the source energy crystal core, so what was the God of Luck for?

While thinking in his mind, he moved quickly and looked around the room.

On his shoulder, the metal flower spirit also flapped its wings and flew up, looking around.

However, after checking, there was nothing gained.

 Other than the scratches, this room is exactly the same as other ordinary nodes, with nothing special about it.

“This mark just happens to be engraved here?”

Thinking in his mind, Lu Cheng checked again and confirmed that there was nothing abnormal, and then stopped.

 Then, look towards the right channel.

Although there is no more to be learned in this room, the clues provided by the arrows are clear enough.

 Follow the direction of the arrow and you will find something.

While thinking, Lu Cheng glanced at the statue.

 Monsters in the ruins will provide double copies of soul fragments. Up to now, there are more than 8,000 fragments accumulated in the soul hotbed.

With less than two thousand, you can open the soul hotbed.

By then, you should be able to find something!

Thinking of this, Lu Cheng put away the statue and continued to move forward.

 But not long after he advanced, a system prompt rang in his ears.

  【Ding, the digestion of the metal flower spirit is completed, and the evolution progress is +80.7%! 】

  【The evolution progress has reached 100%, and the metal flower spirit is evolving! 】

 Suddenly, there was a tremor on his shoulders, and the body of the metal flower spirit trembled violently, with streaks of metallic light coming out of its body, completely wrapping her in it.

 Listening to the system prompts, Lu Cheng's heart skipped a beat.

 The evolution of the metal flower spirit was within his expectation.

The last mechanical hub comes from the Mechanical Disaster. As a level 52 bronze BOSS, it is normal for it to provide more energy than the first three combined.

"Master, don't worry about me...this evolution happens naturally, there is no need to delay the progress of exploration!"

 In the brilliance, the voice of the metal flower spirit came intermittently.

 Lu Cheng responded and then continued moving forward.

Anyway, the metal flower spirit stayed on his shoulder and was within the protective range of the spell. Even if he encountered an enemy, there was no danger.

 In the blink of an eye, more than an hour passed.

“There are still 6 channels away from the core node…”

 Glancing at the map, Lu Cheng thought to himself.

 The level 3 flickering skill greatly improves his ability to travel.

Now it only takes him about ten minutes to walk through a passage on average.

 And on his shoulder.

 The metallic brilliance is gradually shrinking, and evolution has reached the final stage.

 At the same time, he clearly felt that the weight on his shoulders was increasing.

 With evolution, the weight of the metal flower spirit is increasing, but the base number is too small, and the total weight is not much.

 “I wonder what improvements will be made after the evolution is completed?”

Thinking in his heart, Lu Cheng had some expectations.

 In this Toya ruins, the metal flower spirit is undoubtedly a big help and plays a big role.

 “Intruder found…”

Just as he was thinking about it, a group of patrol robots appeared at the end of the passage, their guns raised, and they fired at Lu Cheng.

Lu Cheng blinked to close the distance, and then swung the fireballs in his hand, killing them one by one.

　　【Ding, you killed 30 Type A patrol robots (level 50), gained +1.08 million experience points, and gained +15.3 source energy limit! 】

 The kill prompt sounded, followed by another system prompt. 【Ding, the metal flower spirit evolved successfully! Current number of evolutions: 1. 】

With this reminder, the metallic light on his shoulders completely shrank and converged into the metal flower spirit.

 “Master, I have completed my evolution!”

 The voice of the metal flower spirit sounded, showing a bit of joy.

Hearing this, Lu Cheng turned around and looked.

 After the evolution, the Metal Flower Spirit has grown a little taller, about 25 centimeters tall, and is still a small one.

 Other than that, the appearance has not changed much.

However, the appearance comes second, the key is the attributes!

 Immediately, he started to check.

 …

  【Metal Flower Spirit】

 【Level: Level 3 (equivalent to settlement hub, upgrade to obtain functional gains)】

 【Health: 48000/48000】

 【Functions: Provide blessings, pick up items, language proficiency, communicate metal life, mechanical affinity】

 【Characteristic: Life Leap】

  【Current blessing effects: maximum health value +5000, maximum mana value +5000, all attributes +175, 40% reduction in damage from mechanical and metal life types. 】

 【Number of life jump evolutions: 1, evolution progress: 12.1%】

 【Life jump attribute bonus: maximum health value +25000】

 …

"Um?"

 Seeing the attributes clearly, Lu Cheng's eyes lit up.

 The evolution of the Metal Flower Spirit took more than an hour, and the improvement was indeed quite significant!

 The blood volume alone has increased a lot, from the previous 10,000 to 48,000 in one fell swoop.

 But what has a greater impact on him is undoubtedly the improvement of the blessing effect in the function column.

Now, a blessing from the Metal Flower Spirit can already give him nearly 900 attribute points!

 In addition, there is also 40% mechanical damage reduction.

 With this bonus, his safety factor in the ruins can be improved by several points!

Moreover, the improvement of the Metal Flower Spirit doesn’t stop there!

 The improvement of blessing has numerical value, so it can be reflected intuitively.

  As for other functions, although they do not have numerical values, they will still be improved!

With this in mind, Lu Cheng looked at the robot corpse in front of him.

 “Go and try to see if you can extract more information.”

"Uh-huh!"

The metal flower spirit responded happily and flew out with flapping wings.

 Completed an evolution, and her speed is obviously much faster.

 As a result, after this extraction, a new discovery was made!

 “Master! I found the location where they store the core data!”

 The metal flower spirit flew back to Lu Cheng's shoulder, gesticulating on his body.

“There is a black box-like chip on the right chest of these robots, which stores core data. However, it is easily damaged and cannot be attacked. It needs to be carefully killed to preserve it intact. This batch of them were all damaged.”

The metal flower spirit said and whispered a reminder.

"Understood."

 Lu Cheng nodded.

 In this case, when encountering the next group of patrol robots, you cannot throw fireballs randomly.

But fortunately, he now has a lot of skills, so it is not difficult to do this.

With this in mind, he continued to move forward.

Not long after, another group of patrol robots appeared on time and came towards them.

"Da da da…"

 30 patrol robots opened fire in unison, their guns spitting out tongues of fire.

Lu Cheng didn't panic, flashed close to him, then adjusted his angle and fired a wind blade.

"brush!"

-

  138497!

-

  138022!

-

  137919…

 The wind blade swept out and cut off several patrol robots, killing them instantly!

 The next second, two more wind blades slashed out.

This Wind Blade Technique triggered a triple cast, killing six or seven patrol robots in one blow!

 After completing the blow, Lu Cheng continued to adjust the angle and waited for the wind blade to cool down.

 The cooldown time of Wind Blade Technique is 15 seconds, which is not too long.

Following the same pattern, all these patrol robots were killed within three to two minutes.

Each patrol robot was cut off at the waist by the wind blade, leaving the rest of its body intact.

 “Master, I’m going!”

 The metal flower spirit said something and quickly stepped forward to start extracting it.

Within a few minutes, he flew back happily, with lights shining on his hands.

“Master! I have extracted the core data of these robots!”

As she spoke, she put her hands on Lu Cheng's fingers.

 Suddenly, a stream of information poured into Lu Cheng's mind.

After a brief glance, Lu Cheng couldn't help but feel shocked.

 This information is exactly the operation log of the robot in the ruins!

 Immediately, he started reading carefully.

 There is probably a core secret of the Toya ruins hidden inside!

I have something to do at home, so I’m delayed. Sorry.
