"I hope this time I won't have trouble with that dragon egg like before..."
Zhang Xiaoman muttered something silently in his heart, then reached out and clicked on the upgrade button.
"Upgrades are being extracted immediately, please wait..."
"Upgrade completed! The green skill - Soul Absorbing Technique, has been successfully upgraded to the green skill - Soul Plundering Technique."
Zhang Xiaoman originally wanted to use up all 4 upgrades in one go, but just after the results of his first shot came out, he was surprised to find that the system had hit the Soul Absorbing Technique for the first time, which made him stop subconsciously. He stopped his movements and couldn't wait to open his property panel.
Usage effect: Absorb dark energy from the surrounding or target.
Maximum absorption amount: →40 points
Usage consumption: none
Range of use: radius → 50 meters
Cooling time: →25 minutes
——Plunder other people’s souls for my own use.
When the upgraded Soul Absorbing Technique appeared in front of him, Zhang Xiaoman felt extremely happy. To talk about the skills he wanted to upgrade most, Soul Absorbing Technique was certainly one of them.
There is no way. I have always been troubled by insufficient energy, even after awakening. Even though I have many means, I can't use them to my fullest. This is really uncomfortable.
"The absorption amount has increased from 20 points to 40 points. Not only has the range increased, but the cooling time has also been reduced by 10 minutes. This is really a big improvement for me."
The expression on his face was joyful. The first shot of today's upgrade gave him a surprise. Zhang Xiaoman felt that even if he drew all dragon eggs in the next three times, it would not be a loss.
The upgrade continues.
"Upgrades are being extracted immediately, please wait..."
"Upgrade completed! The blue skill - Star Guard, second level, has been successfully upgraded to the blue skill - Star Guard, third level."
"This... star guard has been upgraded...?"
Zhang Xiaoman looked at the results in front of him and felt a little unbelievable.
The Soul Absorbing Technique has just been upgraded to the Soul Seizing Technique, and soon after, even the Star Guards were upgraded as well.
Isn't your luck a bit too good today?
Thinking of this, he immediately called up the attribute panel to check the effect of the third level of Star Guard.
"Well... the number of star guards that can be summoned at one time has increased from 2 to 4, and the cost has doubled to 60 points of dark energy. But there is no need to worry about this. Anyway, I can only summon two and it will still be 30 points..."
"The maximum limit has also been increased to 8, the duration has become 3 hours, and the summoning range and control range have been increased. It is really awesome!"
Zhang Xiaoman smiled broadly as he looked at the new level of star guard skills.
The first upgrade was from summoning 1 to 2, and now it is from 2 to 4. If he continues to upgrade according to this trend in the future, does that mean that he will be able to summon adults with just a wave of his hand in the future? With thousands of Star Guards coming, can they directly use the human sea tactic to crush the monsters?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
"Since I'm so lucky now, I'll continue to upgrade quickly!"
He said, pointing his finger towards the upgrade function again.
"Upgrades are being extracted immediately, please wait..."
"Upgrade completed! Purple skill - Zhenshanhe, has successfully added 1 upgrade point!"
"Huh? Upgrade?"
The moment Zhang Xiaoman saw the system prompt, he was stunned. The system had always been directly upgraded before, but now it suddenly changed to adding upgrade points. This was the first time he had encountered this situation.
"Why is this happening? Didn't you spend 10 points before and upgrade directly after drawing something? Why is there only one upgrade point added now... By the way, what exactly is this upgrade point?"
He opened Zhenshanhe's property panel in confusion, wanting to see what the so-called upgrade point was for.
"Well... Zhenshan River is still the same Zhenshan River. Its attributes have not changed. It is still invincible for 5 seconds and has a cooldown of 1 hour..."
Zhang Xiaoman looked from top to bottom, but nothing changed inside.
"Wait, what is this?"
When his eyes moved to the bottom of the skill, he suddenly found a "1/5" display there. He remembered clearly that there was no such thing behind his skill.
"Is this the so-called upgrade point? I need to get 4 more points to upgrade this skill?"
Zhang Xiaoman immediately had a rough guess about this new upgrade point.
"Speaking of which, this should be the first time I randomly get a skill with purple quality or above. Is it possible that props and skills with purple quality and above need to collect enough upgrade points to continue to upgrade?"
Although he was not sure yet, he already agreed with it in his heart.
However, according to his exploration and discovery, he was not completely unprofitable after increasing the upgrade points, because his mall already had the ability to purchase the skills of Zhenshanhe, but the price was a bit scary...
"1,000 points? The system, you idiot, is really too evil!"
In this regard, Zhang Xiaoman has completely given up. If he wants to buy this thing with 1,000 points, he doesn't know that he will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey.
Putting aside these thoughts, the next step was the last upgrade of the day, and he reached out and clicked on it without hesitation.
"Upgrades are being extracted immediately, please wait..."
"Upgrade completed! The green skill - Hearing Assistance, has been successfully upgraded to the blue skill - Speech Skill."
The upgrade of this skill made Zhang Xiaoman a little confused, because the previous application of hearing aid technology was really useless. He accidentally let the dog and cat take up the spot, and found out that the so-called "animal language" "It has no effect at all.
Although hearing aid technology is used to understand what the other person wants to say through the spiritual level and is not limited by language, animals are really speechless in terms of expression. Many times, Zhang Xiaoman cannot understand what they mean.
Moreover, this kind of spiritual understanding cannot read lies, because the hearing aid hears "what the other person wants to say" rather than "what is in his heart", so it cannot be used as a mind-reader.
Upon such analysis, this skill is actually a bit embarrassing.
To put it bluntly, it is just a built-in translator.
But having said it all, Zhang Xiaoman still has to take a look at its upgraded attributes.
After all, according to previous experience, skills should be qualitatively enhanced after transitioning from low quality to high quality. The higher the quality, the more obvious the effect.
"I don't know what this communication skill is like. I hope you won't disappoint me..."
Zhang Xiaoman said, clicking on the detailed information in the properties panel to view it.
passive
Engrave and use unlearned languages through the spiritual level, with a maximum of 4 engravings.
Current engraving: 2/4
…
After reading this introduction, he didn't react at first. It felt like there were no other changes except that the upper limit of engraving changed from 2 to 4.
However, after carefully reading the contents, Zhang Xiaoman was surprised to find that the changes brought about by this skill upgrade were much greater than he had imagined.
Just because the "understanding" originally described in hearing aid technology has become the "use" of today's communication technology.
Although there are only two different words, the meanings they represent are completely different.
PS: August is coming soon, please give me a monthly pass at the beginning of the month~
