Chapter 267

In the end, creating a helicopter was a bit too much. So, Leon ended up creating a far smaller version, one which Leon and Darya barely had room to sit and move their bodies. Still, Leon managed to create a box using his own magic box as a reference to store mana and use it as fuel to drive the mini-chopper. However, Leon and Darya had to transmit their mana into it... Leon didn't know how to replicate the ability to drain mana from the surroundings yet. Despite that, somehow, the mini-helicopter could become invisible...

"I thought this might happen, but I'm still surprised..." Leon frowned. "Is it because I created the mithril with that idea in mind?"

"That is probably the case," Darya said. "When you think about it, creating weapons made of mithril, it is the same thing as creating weapons made of our mana. The same way we convert mana into spells to attack, crystalized mana probably has the same attributes we wish them to have in the moment of the creation."

"Well, I wished the chopper to be able to absorb mana from the surroundings, and it didn't work," Leon said. "I don't know how to become invisible either, so why the vehicle I created can have that kind of ability?"

"I don't know... but when you think about it, it doesn't make any sense that the weapons we created ourselves can increase our status," Darya said. " The most plausible explanation is that the system recognizes such items as magic items, and it also recognizes our wishes when we turn mana into mithril. Let's test that... try to create a dagger than can increase intelligence."

Leon wondered if that wasn't a waste of time... but after hearing that and using analysis and then Appraisal on the mini-chopper, he decided to do it.

Magic Mini-Chopper

Skills: Fly Lv 50, Invisibility Lv 50.

Mana: 0000/5000

Mithril Dagger

It grants you Intelligence + 30, Mentality + 30.

"… It worked, but the status bonus is too weak." Leon frowned.

"Maybe it was because you didn't wish for it all that much." Darya rubbed her chin. "Or perhaps we also have to consider the compatibility of weapons… daggers are usually weapons that fast people use, after all."

"That still doesn't explain why the chopper can have two skills," Leon said. "No… it probably has Fly level fifty because I created the blades and connected to the box where the mana is stored. As for the Invisibility… it is probably because I made the fuselage thin in order not to become heavy. It is weird… but it makes sense. I created this vehicle to observe enemies, not for combat, and that is why it doesn't have offensive skills or status bonuses."

Leon wondered if an armor with those properties wouldn't be more convenient. However, it would be challenging to create one that could cover their entire bodies and could be easily taken out.

"Well, let's make a flying test," Leon said.

Mithril really was magic material, even though it could create sturdy as hell weapons, it could also become malleable like rubber, Leon understood that because he had no difficulties controlling the steering wheel... the chopper could fly perfectly, even without having a single electronic device in it. Mana was truly convenient...

Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Driver.

You obtained 01 status points.

Surprisingly, Leon obtained a new passive skill... even though it was more like a title than actual skill. In any case, since Leon and Darya had a lot of mana and their recovery was also high, they could keep flying without having to stop. They couldn't keep Mana Concealment and transfer mana at the same time, but that much was fine. Leon had no intention of getting too close to the battles the harvesters will start after all.

"I can't understand why you were so excited building that…" Darya frowned. "Flying myself in the air is much more fun."

"… Anyway, I will build an underground garage for this." Leon said. "In case we receive an unexpected visitor… I cannot let such a useful item fall on someone else's hands."

Leon created another hole hidden on the beach of that island, and there they put the chopper. Although he wanted to level up Driver, he would have a lot of time to do that once he starts to look for the harvesters. One problem had been solved, so things were going well. However, Leon still had to find a way to knock down a harvester and find another way to decrease the creature's strength while he interrogates him.

"Maybe the undead Trent branches will come in handy… even if their Curse Resistance is at a high level, I will be able to numb their senses if I use it again and again after knocking them down."

Leon could also try to replicate those handcuffs that could cancel spells. He would create a much better version, but it would help... However, Leon needed first to knock them down, and that was the tricky part. Leon's most powerful spells were Lightning and Magma Spear. Lightning wasn't the best option since Leon had to prepare for a while to cast the spell, and as for Magma Spear, if he levels up it too much, he could end up killing the harvesters if he hits the wrong place.

"Nah… I don't think they will fall so easily. I will train Magma Spear until I'm sure that it can destroy their limbs completely."

Leon was hoping that eventually, he would think of a better way to achieve his goals, but for the time being, the only thing he could really do was to grind like there was no tomorrow... again.
