After understanding this, Caruso thought for a moment, nodded, and then asked, “How many skill experience points do I have now?”
“Answer the number, you now have 10,471 skill experience points.”
“More than 10,000 experience points? Then can I level up?”
When he heard the system say that he had more than 10,000 experience points, Caruso was immediately interested.
He wondered what 10,000 experience points could level up a skill to.
When the system heard Caruso’s words, it immediately listed three statistics in front of Caruso, then, it answered, “Yes. Currently, the player has three types of spells that can be leveled up: Fireball, Fire Snake, and Fire Shield. Which one you want to level up?”
[Fireball]
Type: Fire Magic
Level: LVL 1(Basic Tier 1 spell)
Cost: 50 MP
Effect: Deals fire damage to the enemy.
Experience: 1/1000
[Fire Snake]
Type: Fire Magic
Level: LVL 1(Basic Tier 1 spell)
Cost: 50 MP
Effect: Condenses a fire serpent and charges towards the enemy.
Experience: 0/1000
[Fire Shield]
Type: Fire Magic
Level: LVL 1(Basic Tier 1 Magic)
Effect: Creates a fire magic shield that increases defense by 20% and fire magic resistance by 5%.
Experience: 0/1000
…
After looking at the stats of the three skills, Caruso thought for a moment and said, “Level up fireball.”
“Ding-dong! Do you wish to spend 999 experience points to level up Fireball?”
“Yes!”
Soon, as Caruso made his choice, the system’s voice sounded.
After it sounded, the attributes of fireball also changed.
[ Fireball]
Type: Fire Magic
Level: LVL 2(Tier 1 Intermediate Magic)
Cost: 100 MP
Effect: Causes a huge amount of fire damage to the enemy.
Experience: 0/2000
…
Although the fireball spell had been upgraded, other than the change from a basic tier 1 spell to a tier 1 intermediate spell, the effect had changed from causing fire damage to causing a huge amount of fire damage to the enemy.
After seeing the changes in its attributes, Caruso muttered to himself, “Instead of leveling all the skills, why don’t I level up a single skill to the highest level!”
After saying that, he steeled his heart and focused all of his skill experience points on the fireball spell.
“Ding-dong! Do you wish to level up the fireball spell?”
“Yes!”
“Ding-dong! After deducting 2,000 skill experience points, the remaining 7,470 points will be used to level up the fireball spell!”
[Fireball Spell]
Type: Fire Magic
Level: LVL 3 (Tier 1 Advanced Magic)
Cost: 200 MP
Effect: Causes a terrifying amount of fire damage to the enemy.
Experience: 0/5,000
Once again, the attributes of his skills changed. Without any hesitation, Caruso took out another 5,000 experience points and threw them in.
“Ding-dong! Deducted 5,000 skill experience points. Currently, Fireball is level 4!”
“Ding-dong! Fireball skill level has reached the strongest tier 1 spell!”
After pushing fireball skill to the strongest tier 1 spell in one breath, the consumption of fireball skill increased from 100 MP to 200 MP.
Agreed. The experience points had increased from 5,000 to 10,000. If he wanted to level up, the number of experience points required would be terrifying.
After looking at the changes in the attributes, Caruso could not help but start experimenting.
A few seconds later, he stood in front of a towering tree and slowly calmed down. Then, he began to cast the upgraded fireball spell!
“Fireball!”
With a loud shout, a ball of fire the size of a basketball suddenly appeared out of thin air.
After it appeared, the surface of the fireball was emitting a faint blue flame.
Bang!
As it flew, the fireball landed in front of the towering tree in the blink of an eye. A violent explosion sounded in the forest.
The fireball was like a super-powerful grenade, directly exploding the tree.
After the explosion, the flame swallowed the tree, like a fire snake mercilessly devouring it.
It didn’t take long for the towering tree to turn into ashes.
Its effect was even more terrifying than the power of the fireball spell!
…
“Oh no!”
“How could I be so stupid!”
An anxious voice suddenly came from the room where Cass was in the Auphi Village.
Holding a brand new map in his hand, Cass’s face was full of frustration as he stood dejectedly at the door, thinking about something.
It turned out that the map that Cass had given Caruso was an ancient map.
This map was a map from decades ago. It was also a map of a secret realm in the Yass Empire.
Thirty years ago, the evil dark mage Bard was discovered by the powerhouses of the Temple of Light during a terrifying incident.
After being discovered, the Temple of Light directly sent out dozens of grand archmagi to kill Bard.
However, when they made a move, Bard had already escaped.
The powerhouses of the Temple of Light followed the scent and clues.
They followed him all the way to a mountain 300 miles away from the Auphi Village. Then, an intense battle took place.
The result of the battle was self-evident. Bard had been suppressed.
However, the Temple of Light had to pay the price of three archbishops and 100 bishops to suppress him.
Because the evil substance was too powerful, the Red Bishop of the Temple of Light had to take action personally to completely suppress Bard and seal all the dark substances in the mountain.
After this was over, the people of the Temple of Light would personally recite the scriptures here every year, with the goal of completely eliminating Bard’s soul.
After thirty years, the Dark Forest that sealed the evil spirits had gradually become clear.
It was no longer gray inside but only outside.
Once they entered the depths, there was still a large amount of dark energy entrenched inside.
This made it so that ordinary mages did not dare to approach.
Even the powerhouses of the Temple of Light needed a large amount of equipment and powerful strength to get close.
However, every time they reached within a kilometer, they would suffer a backlash from the energy.
According to their different levels, there were already powerhouses who were considered to be of the Temple of Light. There were also a few hundred exploration mages who had all died here.
Because of this, in the eyes of mages, this place was already publicly recognized as a forbidden area.
And the most important thing had come.
Because this place was located as a forbidden area, the Holy Orchid City under the jurisdiction of the Yass Empire had replanned the route.
This was to the extent that anyone who wanted to go to Holy Orchid City would have to take a big detour.
However, the advantage of taking a detour was that they would not accidentally enter it.
And the map in Cass’s hands was the old version of the map.
The new map was not in his possession. After all, he had been in the village for decades.
He could walk to the main city with his eyes closed. After all the new maps fell into his hands, he directly taught some villagers to know the way.
