Chapter 106 Water Aptitude, Discovered Broken World
Edgar does not know that the pit he dug is more successful than he thought. He is currently in the outer zone of a restricted area. He is looking at a one-meter-long magic iguana basking under the sun on a big gray stone. There are other stones nearby and tall grasses that surrounded them. There are big mushrooms near the stones. Not far from the stones, there is a pond that has big lotuses with big dragonflies and bees flying over them.
Edgar jumped on a stone near the iguana. The iguana noticed Edgar, but it continues enjoying its sunbath.
Edgar jumped forward and landed on the nearest stone, where the iguana is currently resting. He stares at the iguana. The iguana opened its eyes, turned its eyeballs, and looked at Edgar, who is staring at it intently. It ignored Edgar, closed its eyes again, and enjoys basking under the sunlight.
"Damn you iguana! I am already lenient not attacking you!" Edgar furiously shouted as he pointed his finger at the iguana.
"Why does it not use its camouflage skill? Is it because it does not feel a threat from me? Should I release a killing intent?" Edgar asked himself.
In the end, Edgar released a killing intent on the iguana. The iguana was petrified. Its whole skin turned gray, the same color as the gray stone. It looks at Edgar with fear. It lasted for three minutes until the camouflage skill was duplicated. The iguana fainted after Edgar stopped releasing his killing intent.
Edgar activated parallel thought. His other thought is looking at the rune skill in his sea of consciousness. There are only a few advanced runes, and the patterns are not too complicated.
"I should be able to study it and use the runes on the armor of Hidden Dragon Guards," thought Edgar.
He deactivated the parallel thought, then activated the camouflage. He imitated the color of wood. A color of wood cloaks his whole body. He deactivated the skill, and the cloak disappeared. Edgar nods, the skill is worth his time searching and scaring the magic iguana.
He looks in a particular direction.
"It should be time to copy a water element skill with better aptitude."
He had already duplicated a water element skill, but the aptitude is not as high as the other elements. His control over the water element is not as smooth as that of the other elements, so he will duplicate a magic beast with a better aptitude for the water element.
He flew to the inner zone until he reached a big blue lake surrounded by small mountains. Edgar is floating above the lake.
"It seems it won't attack unless I step on the lake, which is its territory," thought Edgar. He found the beast when he was moving away from the inner zone and escaping the pursuit of the poison guild.
He flew down to the lake as he released his aura. Magic circles flashed on his feet, and he landed on the surface of the lake without falling to the bottom.
A shadow of a beast is moving toward Edgar.
WATER WAVE
Bang! A high splash of water appeared where Edgar was standing.
Edgar moved away with a water wave. He is staring at the beast that came out of the lake.
The magic beast looks like a big eel, but it is colored white. It has a horn and two dragon whiskers.
The magic beast stares intently at Edgar, then?blue water element covers its whole body. Its two dragon whiskers are swaying.
Edgar felt the danger. He manipulated the water wave to move.
DUPLICATE ACTIVATE nove)lb-In
Bang! A water pillar rose from where Edgar was standing.
Bang! Bang! Two more water pillars rise and attack Edgar.
Bang! Bang! The water pillars are chasing and trying to hit Edgar from the air and bottom, but he is swiftly avoiding them.
Bang! Two more water pillars appear in front.
They divided into many smaller water pillars, and they quickly move toward Edgar. He cannot escape using water wave.
Edgar jumped up.
Boom! The water pillars hit the wave.
The three water pillars attack from behind. He steps on air in the air, then he jumped up with a somersault.
The water pillars missed.
The magic beast saw Edgar floating in the air.
The water pillars are dispersed by the beast,then big blobs of water float from the lake and surround the magic beast.
The blobs turned into water spears, then they started rotating.
The magic beast attacked.
Shoo! Shoo! The rotating water spears are rapidly flying toward Edgar.
He stretched his left hand forward. Blue magic circles appear around him. Water swords came out of the magic circles and attacked the rotating spears.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The water spears and swords are exploding in the air. Splashes of water and droplets kept falling into the lake.
Edgar flew down toward the magic beast while attacking with water swords and avoiding the spear that he could not block.
He stretched his right arm to the side. His sword comes out as the magic circle moves to the side.
Threads of water are rotating on the sword.
A bigger rotating spear is moving toward Edgar. He jumped forward while rotating in the air, then slashed the sword at the magic beast.
WATER BLADE
The water blade flew down to the magic beast.
Boom! A water pillar rose and blocked the water blade.
Edgar fights the magic beast until the water pillar skill is duplicated.
Flop! Edgar landed on a mountain not too far from the lake.
"That magic beast is not hot-tempered. As long as I move away from the lake, it will not attack me even if I sit on the mountain, which is only on the side of the lake," murmured Edgar. He closes his eyes, and he feels that the water element in the air is easier to manipulate than before.
"Time to test my aptitude," thought Edgar as he opened his eyes.
A magic circle is forming beneath his feet.
Splash! A water dragon rises. It is five meters tall. It is moving around Edgar.
Its head turns and faces a nearby mountain. It opened its mouth. Threads of water elements gathered and formed an energy ball. It fired the energy ball into the mountain.
The blue energy ball turned into many water beams.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The water beams hit the stony mountain and created small holes. Dust rises in the areas hit by the water beams.
Edgar looks at the water dragon.
"I can never cast it in the virtual world. I can't even cast it after duplicating a good aptitude for the water element. I only succeeded after duplicating a much better aptitude. Duplicate skill is really heaven-defying."
Edgar looks at a particular area of small, stony mountains. He detected it earlier when he used life detection to check for the magic beast in the lake. He detected a broken world.
He dispersed the water dragon. The water dragon turns into vapor and slowly blows in the wind.
Edgar floated, then flew toward the portal of a broken world.
After flying for a while, he reached his target.
Between the small stony mountains, there is a portal to a broken world. There are big yellow earth lizards nearby, resting on stony mountains with caves.
A big yellow lizard is on top of a stony mountain. There are two small gray horns on its head. Its big body surrounded the top of a mountain.
Edgar flew to the portal. Threads of wind are rotating around his body.
The yellow lizards noticed Edgar. They open their mouths and attacked with earth spikes.
Shoo! Shoo! Many earth spikes flew to Edgar.
WIND TORNADO
Crunch! The earth spikes are crushed when they hit the tornado that covers Edgar's body.
The biggest yellow lizard on top of a mountain also opened its mouth. Threads of earth element are gathering and forming a yellow energy ball, then it attacked.
Oom! A big yellow beam is moving rapidly toward Edgar.
Boom! He charges down from the air.
The tornado that covers his body disperses. He rotated his body when he is near the portal. His feet came in first, followed by his whole body.
The big lizard is preparing for the next attack, but the small creature disappeared, which left it puzzled. It keeps looking, but it cannot find it, so it just continues basking under the sun.
Edgar entered a broken world. He is shocked at the magnificent scene.
It is a Space Land.
Above the sky are different colors of stardust, stars, and nebulas.
