Seeing that Gaia did not say anything to comfort him, but instead thoughtfully ordered him another glass of strong wine, Penke felt very relieved and smiled gratefully at Gaia.
"It turns out that the power of blessings is much smaller than I thought... But if you get a special blessing, will your combat power suddenly increase?"
Putting a few copper coins and empty wine glasses on the bartender's plate, Gaia politely thanked him and took the newly served liquor and handed it to Penke, who was sitting opposite him.
"Um……"
Reaching out to take the liquor, Penke did not drink it immediately, but pondered for a while before answering Gaia's question:
"That's not necessarily the case. Although some of the abilities of blessings are indeed astonishing, the blessings alone will only have ordinary combat power in the end. If you really want to become the overlord of a party, you have to fully understand your own blessings and let it awaken. thereby gaining greater capabilities.”
Taking a sip of wine, Penke continued to explain to Gaia, whose curiosity was aroused:
"For example, use the relatively common blessing of fire. Although blessing is common, if you want to use it well and understand how to use the blessing, you have to rely on two aspects.
The first is personal comprehension ability, which varies from person to person and cannot be forced.
The second is the magic content in the body. After all, blessings consume your own magic. Even if it is a powerful blessing, it is just a waste without enough magic to support it. It is like the giant puppets of the dwarves. Although they are strong, they are useless. It's like it can't even move without fuel. "
"I see……"
Touching his chin, Gaia waited for Penk to finish a sip of wine and continued to ask:
"Then what is this so-called awakening? Does it increase the power of blessing?"
Wiping his mouth with the back of his hand, Penke shook his head to Gaia's surprise:
"This is not necessarily true. Take the blessing of fire as an example. Some people are awakened to make the power of the fire increase. Some people are awakened to make the fire explode after it is sprayed out. Some people are allowed to make the fire explode. It can keep burning after being released and cannot be extinguished. These are genuine cases I am talking about. If Mr. Gaia is interested, you can go to the library and check it out later."
"It seems that you know this knowledge very well, which is quite rare."
Gaia couldn't help but praise him.
Unexpectedly, Penke shrugged his shoulders dumbfounded:
"There is no way. Dora in my team doesn't like reading, and Miramichi hates reading even more. Spike is in trance all day long, so he can only let me collect information. Over time, I also developed the habit of going to the library often. The habit of reading books.”
You Amazons have actually developed the habit of going to the library. Your team is really a bit outrageous.
Internally complaining, Gaia also laughed bitterly along with Penk:
"Miss Penk, when you say that, I feel like I'm on a pirate ship."
After a moment of silence, Penke stretched out his big hand and patted Gaia on the shoulder:
"You can't go down now, just accept your fate. Of course, if possible, you can stay far away in the next mission."
Gaia, who thought Penk was reaching out to give herself a touch, breathed a sigh of relief and also joked:
"It's just that Miss Penke can't run away anymore. It's a pity."
"Yeah, it's such a pity."
Looking at each other, Gaia and Punk couldn't help laughing.
After finishing laughing, Gaia waited patiently for Penke to finish the glass of wine before continuing to gain knowledge from her:
"In other words, just as everyone has different blessings, even the same blessing has different abilities after awakening, right? Is there any characteristic characteristic that can identify awakened and unawakened blessings? ?”
"This, indeed."
Penke gently put down his wine glass and drank two large glasses of strong liquor. He answered Gaia's question with clear thinking like a normal person:
"It's range."
"scope?"
"Yes, range."
Pointing at the three little ones who were leaning against the wall at the door of the president's office, panting after the quarrel, Penke continued to use the enumeration method she was good at:
"Take Dora's blessing as an example. Her blessing is the ability to change her own density, but she has not yet awakened it. If it is successfully awakened, no matter what the further ability is, she can use it on her own contact. to objects, rather than being limited to such a narrow range as oneself.”
After staring at Dora and thinking for a while, Gaia discovered a new problem:
"What if it's a blessing like releasing flames that is out of its own scope from the beginning?"
"Then it becomes much larger."
Looking at Gaia's helpless eyes, Penke also spread his hands innocently:
"After all, blessings are different, and the scope of their effect is also different. But at least the more powerful the blessing, the smaller the scope of its effect. This is common sense."
"All right."
Gaia thought that in this case, it would be difficult to judge in the future:
"But the ability to bless is really a good thing. I want one."
However, Penke had a huge reaction to Gaia’s words:
"No, no, no, Mr. Gaia, blessing is not a simple and beautiful thing, and sometimes it can even bring great harm."
She thought Penk was doing this because of her own experience. Just as Gaia was about to apologize, she was interrupted by Penk who knew what he wanted to say:
"No need to apologize, this is not my problem alone. Let me use Dora as an example again. Her blessing is to change her own density. Its purpose in battle is to make herself harder than steel or even diamond. However, it looks like this A powerful blessing but there is a fatal problem——"
"That means you may not be able to bear the weight after using the blessing."
I don’t know when I came to the table, Dora looked gloomy:
"When this blessing first appeared, I was only thirty years old, so I happily demonstrated it in front of my mother. However, it turned out to be as soft as a puddle of mud. When I was sent to the doctor, I found that all the bones in my body were broken, almost He lost his life because of this.”
Originally, she wanted to take a sip of Punk's strong wine, but Dora regretfully found that the glass was already empty, so she had to put it down angrily:
"Fortunately, I awakened the dragon bloodline later, and the endurance of my muscles and bones increased a lot. Only then did I dare to continue using Blessing. Otherwise, it would be just like garbage."
Patting Dora on the shoulder to express relief, Penke sighed deeply:
"Ha - Dora's situation may not be that tragic. Some children were blessed by self-destruction. When demonstrating to their parents, they directly destroyed a street, causing heavy casualties. What's more, due to the space system, His young age and lack of control resulted in a city being wiped off the map, and hundreds of thousands of people are still missing.
There are quite a few situations like this. Fortunately, in recent years, methods that can detect blessing abilities have been developed, which has reduced the tragedy a lot.
All in all, Mr. Gaia, crystals will not fall from the sky, and blessings will not be such a beautiful existence. "
