NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 1296: Dragon Skeleton
Chapter 1296: Dragon Skeleton
I ended choosing the Dragon Skeleton Skill for obvious reasons! I remember that the Dragon King said something about me needing the Dragon Skeleton as part of becoming a "True Dragon Born" or something, I can't remember well, but it was important.
Also, talking about that, he also told me in one of the dungeons of these mountains there's the corpse of a Red Dragon, so I'll have to check on that so I can finally evolve Ignatius, who had been quite stagnant on his progression.
Hopefully this aligns with Felicia's intentions, and we can finally have a little adventure, I really need some action.
Ah, right...
Ding!
[You have chosen the [Dragon Skeleton] Skill!]
[You learned the [Dragon Skeleton: Lv1] Skill!]
[The Power of the Dragon Skeleton is imbued into your own bones, slowly transforming them...]
[Dragon Skeleton: Lv1]
Skill Proficiency: 0/50.000
A Dragon Skeleton, the ability that those that have forged their Dragon Heart to the max level can obtain, by further imbuing the Draconic Runes of your Physique into your very own bones, you can slowly transform them, making them as hard, durable, and powerful as the bones of a dragon.
Your bones will go through a slow process of refinement as they absorb the Draconic Runes and transform into more durable material, capable of producing and storing their own Dragon Power and also Spirit and Mana energies.
As a result, the stronger your bones become, the higher your Weight, Vitality, Physical Power, Durability, Mana Capacity, and Dragon Power Capacity will become. And as a result, all your already existing Dragon Heart abilities will also considerably improve.
Additionally, as the Dragon Skeleton developers further and grows as it develops into a tougher form, so does the user's transformation and techniques improve. New Abilities can be unlocked as this Skill Levels up.
Dragon Power/Draconic Energy is produced and stored inside of the Bones, which is used in conjunction with Mana to unleash its Abilities.
Current Dragon Skeleton Growth: 1%
Available Abilities:
[Dragon Bone Endurance (1)]: Channel your internal Mana and Dragon Power to reinforce the Endurance, Vitality, Weight, and Strength of your Bones by +100%. To maintain this boost, a constant usage of Mana and a bit of Dragon Power is needed. When this Ability is activated, increases the power of all Dragon Heart-related Abilities by +50% and decreases Dragon Power cost of these Abilities by -20%.
Level Bonus (1): Enhances All Skill Effects by +25%.
Ooh, looks pretty interesting right from the get-go, not all stat boost, but this weight boost and everything... It sounds like something really powerful.
It also has its own Abilities, and even an output of growth, right now it's only 1%, but if I keep cultivating, fighting, and training, the output will quickly go up.
Also by drinking Dragon Elixirs too, but I think their effects have been lowered a lot, I would probably need to drink fifty more of those super elixirs to feel a substantial boost.
But this Skeleton also counts as a skill, so as long as I keep using it, Skill Proficiency will increase and that will, in result, also increase the percentage of growth.
"Do you feel any different?" wondered Alice at my side.
"Yeah, kind of," I nodded. "Much stronger, and... Like my arms and legs got heavier? It's as if I am wearing heavier clothes, but inside! Weird."
"It is probably the effect of the Skill, it has a passive and active effect after all," said Alice. "It might be annoying at first, but don't worry. You will rapidly get used to this, like you always do."
"I wonder if I could later... Like control my own bones? Make them grow out of my body," I wondered.
"That could be painful..." Alice sighed. "But I guess you don't mind doing the exact same thing with your blood, which is becoming more metallic over time. Perhaps in situations where you have a wound, you could use your bones... I don't know, it still sounds painful, I wouldn't want you to do it. Dragon Skeleton is not exactly about controlling your bones and making them grow out of your skin, its about reinforcing the foundation of your entire physical body, the bones!"
"I understand," I nodded. "I guess it is a bit of a dumb fantasy for me, like growing a whole dragon bone armor... Doesn't that sound a bit cool? Come on, it does, right?"
"Hah..." she sighed. "I-I suppose, maybe? But anyways, just keep the cultivation going."
"I know," I nodded. "Anyways, I kind of wanted to go to the Dungeon to check things out, it has been a whole month and a half since my last visit. Surely a lot of time passed now, right?" "Yes, certainly, I think there's a lot of news awaiting for you, let's pay a visit!" Alice nodded, excited.
"I may also accompany you on this little travel too," Yggdra stepped forwards.
"Me too! I want to go see how the Arboren and the Robots are doing!" said Naturia.
"Yeah- Ah, right, the Robots were also making equipment for my Kingdom, I should probably check on that myself too," I nodded.
After all of that, I tidied myself up, and quickly channeled the powers of my bracelet, which were still connected to my ability as a Dungeon Master after all.
It was a combination of the Bracelet and the System, so if I were to ever lose the Bracelet or something... It might be dangerous, and I don't know what could happen.
I have to find out a way to absorb the powers of the bracelet, so I don't have to worry about
this...
And I think Master Felicia could eventually help me in that regard.
"Open! {Dungeon Gate}!"
FLUOSH!
An azure-colored portal opened in front of me, as I noticed the presence of Master Felicia lurking above the ceiling, a small crystalline eye was looking.
I ignored her, pretending I didn't know she was looking, and entered the Dungeon, leaving
the Gate open.
The beautiful grasslands greeted me once more, it was a refreshing sight!
Yet...
There was something weird now.
"What the hell is that?"
Right next to me, there was a huge...
Thing.
Some black, slimy blob, made of...
Miasma?!
