Chapter 60 Skills level up!

Chapter 60 Skills level up!

The roots of this story extend from novell bìn origin.

Near the broken wall...

Ramsey's group turned around and left after talking for a while.

After half an hour...

Rumble!

The dust and rocks shifted in an area close to where Ramsey's was standing to reveal a haggard, blood-soaked figure.

If Luke and others were here, they would immediately recognise this figure because it was none other than James—the guy they found hiding in the closet.

Right now, he had many injuries, some of which were still bleeding, such as his forehead and shoulder injury. Fortunately, they weren't too serious.

He stood with difficulty, looked around to see if there was anyone, and sighed in relief when he didn't see anyone. Then, a fearful expression filled his eyes, as he mumbled, "S-Sir Luke and others, they... left me. I need to find them."

Mumbling this, he ambled out of the broken wall and entered the forest.

...

After two hours, Luke opened his eyes. He had recovered most of his mana.

Glancing around, he saw professor Nina and Julia sitting in meditation, recovering their mana. Near them, Lori—who had woken up a while ago but chose not to disturb them after she saw them meditating—was also sitting in meditation.

His gaze then drifted to the still unconscious Ben and he couldn't help but feel his heart clench. Apart from his father and younger brother, he only cared about Ben and professor Nina. So, seeing him in this condition was very painful for him. Unfortunately, he couldn't do anything but wait for the next day, so Lori can cast her healing on him once again.

He then glanced at the man tied to the tree not too far away from them and saw that he also had his eyes close. For a moment, he wanted to go and finish him off, but decided against it for the time being since it would disturb the ladies. Instead, he summoned his status screen and went down to the skill section.

{External active skills: Berserk Level 5 (First order), Mana amplification Level 3 (First order).}

{Passive skills: Rapid steps Level 3 (First order), Basic weapon mastery (First order), Rapid Recovery Level 1 (First order)}

Phew!

He inhaled and exhaled a deep breath to calm down and shifted his attention to his passive skills. He still had 3 skill points left and wanted to level up his passive ones.

[Basic Weapon Mastery (Level 5) (First order)]

<Evolution Requirements: 1 second order mana core, Intelligence 50+.>

[Rapid Steps (Level 3) (First order)]

<Evolution Requirements: 3 skill points, Strength 10+.>

[Rapid Recovery (Level 1) (First Order)]

<Evolution Requirements: 1 skill point, health 10+.>

Since [Basic weapon mastery] couldn't be levelled up right now, and levelling [Rapid steps] wasn't worth it since it only gave 2 agility points, he levelled up the [Rapid Recovery] to level 2 and used the last 2 skill points to level it up to the level 3.

[Rapid recovery (Level 3) (First order): The user can recover their exhausted stamina and mana, 1 point per minute.]

A smile appeared on his face when he saw that [Rapid recovery] could now recover mana, too.

'Now I won't have to worry about exhausting my mana and stamina too much.' He thought.

Just when he was celebrating, he felt his danger sense flare up.

Whoosh!

A shadow leapt out from the bushes, and before he could react, it lunged at his captive. The guy couldn't even open his eyes before his head was bitten off his shoulders.

"An evolved black panther!" Luke sucked in a cold breath before rushing in front of Professor Nina and others and shouting, his voice laced with urgency and a hint of dread, "Everyone! Wake up!"
