Forsyx tapped on the Mana Phantom Mirage skill first. This was the skill he had created using the mana-burning method.
As he tapped, the skill description popped in front of him.
[Mana Phantom Mirage (Active):
→ Phantom Creation: You can use mana to create numerous mirage phantom clones that will stay for one second.
(Note: After one second, all your phantoms will vanish.)
Cooldown: 5 seconds
→ Phantom Switch: You can switch your position with one of your phantom clones.
Cooldown: None
(Note: Requires the presence of a mana phantom clone within 20-meter range.)
]
Forsyx carefully read the Mana Phantom Mirage description. It was basically a two-in-one skill that worked together.
The first skill was Phantom Creation, which allowed him to create fake phantom illusion clones of himself.
These clones had no power, and they could only stay for one second,
But combined with Phantom Switch, they became a deadly illusion that allowed him instant teleportation—
Switching places with any of his phantoms.
In the past life, this version of the mana-burning skill was very popular among aggressive mages
Who used it to dodge all close-range attacks.
Though those guys supplemented the skill with other stuff—
Like items that allowed phantoms to stay longer and even reduced cooldown.
But as a physical warrior with high agility, he didn’t require any of that support.
If he used mana to create even three mirage clones,
Then in one second, all those clones could rush around 10 to 12 meters.
In his current state, this would easily give him a 10-meter teleportation.
But that wasn’t the limit—after all, there was no cooldown on Phantom Switch.
In the best case, he could use this skill three times within that one second,
Which would allow him to travel more than 40 meters, if all clones rushed in opposite directions.
That was the optimal case—
But he knew he could enhance this skill even further by integrating Template Shift between the phantom shifts.
This was a method he had theorized in his past life—
Too bad he had only thought of it much later and never got to use it.
But now, he had high hopes to combine Mana Phantom Mirage with Template Shift.
This skill was another reason he chose Instinct over Wisdom—
After all, the phantoms themselves were nothing but illusions.
He nodded his head, mentally patting himself on the back.
He had made the correct decision.
He really had to go back to doing those intense training sessions to master this stuff.
Before checking the other skill, he tapped on the Instinct stat
As more description about the stat popped before him.
[Hidden Stat: Instinct
Allows player to sense upcoming danger ahead of time.
The higher the stat, the earlier and more precisely you will be able to judge.]**
Now, this was new territory for him—
As in his past life, anything about hidden stats was kind of forbidden to talk about.
All he knew was the level of this hidden stat
And that it was suitable for those with high agility—which he had.
Although there might be no one besides him
Who had Vitality as their second-highest stat after Agility.
Forsyx shook his head.
This stuff also required him to gain more experience.
Finally, he focused on the last thing—
The new skill from the golden notification.
He tapped on Mana Overdrive as its description popped before him.
[Mana Overdrive:
Description: Due to the rapid use of large amounts of mana in a short time and guiding it toward your brain,
You have developed a method to inject mana into your neurons and overcharge them.
Effect: Enter the hypersensitive state for one entire minute.
→ In the hypersensitive state, you will sense the world around you at half the regular speed.
→ During the hypersensitive state, you will be able to sense the flow of all mana around you.
→ During the hypersensitive state, all skills with a cooldown of 15 minutes or less will have no cooldown and require half the mana.
Cooldown: 3 hours
Backlash: Due to overloading your neurons, you will lose 20% of one random physical stat for the entire duration of the skill cooldown.
(Note: Even though your senses are sharper in the hypersensitive state,
That doesn’t translate to physical body reactions.)
]
Forsyx just stared at the Mana Overdrive skill in awe, his mouth wide open.
This skill might be the answer to his lack of overwhelming power skills.
Even though it was very different from traditional superpower-type skills—
Gosh, the effect of the hypersensitive state was on another level.
The ability to sense mana, see the world in slow motion,
And that last part—
If he understood it right, for one minute,
He would be able to spam any skill with a 15-minute or lower cooldown without restriction.
He could spam Phantom Mirage,
And not only that—there was the added benefit of half mana consumption.
Compared to the effect of this skill, the downside was almost nothing.
The loss of 20 percent stats might be a big deal for others, but he could just switch to some template to negate the effect.
It would be the perfect showdown skill that he could rely on as his last option.
Forsyx clenched his fist in excitement as he punched the floor.
"Yes! Yes! This is what I was looking for. This will be my signature trump skill."
Just this skill alone would increase the efficiency of his super templates.
After all, most monster skills had those annoying cooldown times.
But with this form, he could become a super creature for one entire minute.
It might not have much use in a big war,
But in one-on-one, this would be a trump card.
Heck, it might be one of the best skills he had ever gotten his hands on in both lives.
A super mode capable of dragging the result in his favor.
Forsyx wanted to scream in excitement, but he controlled himself—
Remembering he was inside his guild office.
This time, it took him longer to calm down.
As he regained clarity, he stopped thinking about the skill and focused on the tasks ahead.
Now that he was done with preparation,
It was time to take on that illegal quest.
Also, now that Roonie was coming into the game,
He decided to change his plan a bit.
Instead of wasting time on grinding,
It would be better to master these two skills first
And also understand the effect of the Instinct stat.
With all that in mind, Forsyx stood up and walked toward the door.
It was time to start his grind.
Far away from Chimik City, inside the Grassland Wildzone,
Next to a tier-one city, the tall grass was covered in a thick red layer of blood.
A teenage boy, not even 15 years old, screamed in pain while helplessly begging his sister.
"Sister, please save me!"
He looked at his perpetrators and begged them for forgiveness.
"Please... I’m sorry."
Not caring about the youth’s begging, Elish just ruthlessly cut his arm.
Puich!
"Aaaaa!" The teen rolled around in pain, screaming his lungs out.
At this, Lucami—who was in a much worse condition—struggled hard,
But both Danish and Luka grabbed her shoulders and slammed her head into the ground.
Lucami, with one of her eyes missing and her body battered, screamed frantically,
"Leave my brother alone! I already told you everything I know!"
Not caring about any of that, Elish grabbed the boy’s other hand and started cutting off one finger after another.
The teen screamed in pain,
"No... no more, please! Sis, help me... p-please..."
Lucami screamed again,
"No! Leave my brother alone! He is innocent! He didn’t even know you guys. Please, I beg you!"
Deshin kicked her head.
"Bitch, nobody wants to hear you beg. Just answer us—where is the egg?"
Lucami frantically slammed her head on the ground.
"Please believe me! I’m telling you the truth. The egg you dropped—it was with Cion."
Luka shook his head and said with pity,
"We’re asking about the other egg. Where’s the other egg you took from the cave?"
Lucami screamed at him,
"How many times do I have to tell you?! I don’t know anything about any cave!"
Elish just cut the boy’s fourth finger—
But instead of hearing another loud scream, she saw him piss just his pants,
And in the next moment, he went limp and died.
Elish clicked her tongue.
"Geez... he force-logged out."
Even Danish sighed.
"Another waste."
With that, he slashed Lucami’s head, ending her misery.
Luka took out the list and crossed out the 5th name.
Now only two names were left.
