MTL - Spellcasting is a Permanent Addition and My Skills Are All Forbidden Spells-Chapter 163 Upper node, evolution completed, seventh-level city

Chapter 163 Upper node, evolution completed, seventh-level city

 This production node is divided into upper and lower levels?

 Listening to the system prompts, Lu Cheng's heart skipped a beat.

 That's it. No wonder there are no other buildings in the room.

 Will you gain anything after reaching the upper level?

Thinking in his mind, he looked at the giant metal pillar.

The only building on the lower level of this production node should be the dome elevator.

 When touched, the giant metal pillar actually reacted.

“Metal life authority detected, dome elevator activated.”

The sound of mechanical operation was heard inside the giant pillar, and the metal skin was pulled up like a rolling shutter door, revealing the elevator car inside.

The interior space of this elevator car is very large, and it looks like it is used for handling cargo.

“Take the dome elevator to reach the upper level of the production node. Metal life can ride on it, and mechanical creations must ride with it.”

He has eaten the spiritual fruit produced by the bronze tree sapling, and has metal life permissions, so he can ride directly.

 Looking at it like this, it only takes a few minutes before evolution is completed.

As long as you continue to explore, you will find it sooner or later.

Then when the Metal Flower Spirit evolves, can any information be extracted from it?

 He glanced sideways at the metal flower spirit.

However, in this case, there is no rush to go up.

 The breath crystal can destroy divine power in a targeted manner. It is embedded here probably to destroy the power in this carving.

 Withdrawing his gaze, Lu Cheng nodded slightly.

Most of these robot remains are incomplete, but some of them are relatively complete.

 Perhaps this is the reason why this mark failed to point the direction again.

 Lu Cheng's mind was spinning.

At this time, the brilliance shrouding the metal flower spirit has become brighter, and it is undergoing final shaping.

 Except for the dome elevator, there are no other buildings in the production node, only the remains of robots in one place.

“Is it because of the breath crystal?”

 Lu Cheng looked around.

However, it didn’t have much impact on him.

  Inside the elevator, a mechanical announcement sounded.

According to the diary of the God of Luck, although he did not fully explore the Toya ruins, he also encountered level 100 monsters and must have left more than one mark.

The β-shaped notches were exactly the same as the one he saw before, but they did not indicate the direction.

There are an unknown number of robot remains here, and there are hundreds of them in complete form. It’s totally worth the wait!

While waiting, Lu Cheng looked at the scratches on the ground.

Lu Cheng took out the statue of the God of Luck and shook it at the notch, but there was also no reaction.

This metal pillar is indeed a dome elevator... Lu Cheng nodded slightly.

He was thinking in his mind, and suddenly, streaks of metallic light lit up from his shoulders.

Looking at the light, Lu Cheng felt happy.

 This is the completion of the evolution of the Metal Flower Spirit!

Sure enough, not long after, the system prompt rang.

  【Ding, the metal flower spirit evolved successfully! Current number of evolutions: 2 times. 】

  【Metal Flower Spirit absorbed the mimic AI mechanical center and gained a new characteristic slot! 】

 Listening to the system prompts, Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows.

 Absorbing the mechanical center, are there any such benefits?

 This is an unexpected surprise.

 Under binding, the improvement of the metal flower spirit is equivalent to his own improvement.

 Lu Cheng's mind was spinning.

Things with infinite growth attributes like Endless Drain are extremely rare. Throughout the twenty years of Cataclysm, there have been few. There is also a limit to the number of times that you can obtain new characteristics.

 I just don’t know, how many times is the upper limit for this increase?

Thinking in his mind, he looked at the metal flower spirit.

 Under the rays of light, one can vaguely see the shape of the metal flower spirit changing continuously.

At the same time, the properties of the metal flower spirit also appeared in front of him.

 …

  【Metal Flower Spirit】

 【Level: Level 3 (equivalent to settlement hub, upgrade to obtain functional gains)】

 【Health: 68000/68000】

 【Functions: Provide blessings, pick up items, language proficiency, communicate metal life, mechanical affinity】

[Current blessing effects: maximum health value +8000, maximum mana value +8000, all attributes +300, 55% reduction in damage from mechanical and metal life types. ]    【Characteristic 1: Life Leap】

 【Number of evolutions: 2, remaining number of evolutions 1, evolution progress: 1.5%】

 【Attribute bonus: HP limit +65000】

 【Characteristic 2: Mimic Armor】

  【Mimetic Armor: Characteristics that can be read by absorbing mimetic AI, replaceable, current number of replacements remaining: 1. 】

　　【Can be transformed into outer armor, providing bonuses to the wearer, no equipment slot required, duration 10 minutes, cooling time 100 minutes. 】

  【Current bonus: The cooldown time of all skills of the wearer is -5%, and the bonus is increased with the life coefficient. 】

[Current life coefficient: 52. Absorbing the mechanical center can increase the life coefficient. The amount of improvement depends on the quality of the mechanical center. 】

 【Characteristic 3: (Unlocked, after the settlement is upgraded to a city, this feature column will be unlocked)】

[Metal Flower Spirit can read characteristics from the absorbed mechanical center, and the number of characteristics it can read is the same as its level. 】

  【After reading, it can be replaced up to 1 time. 】

 …

"good!"

After checking it, Lu Cheng was very happy.

 Completed the second evolution, and the attributes of the metal flower spirit have been improved a lot!

The blood volume alone has increased by another 20,000 points.

 His upper blood limit of 68,000 is almost half of it.

 In addition, the original functions have also been greatly improved.

Now, the blessing of the metal flower spirit can give him 300 points of all attributes.

With his current bonus coefficient for changing jobs, 300 points of physical fitness is equivalent to a blood limit of 27,000. The increase is quite terrifying!

 As for several other functions.

 Although there is no numerical value, judging from the increase in blessing function, the improvement must be quite large.

It seems like Metal Flower Spirit is growing quite fast!

 Furthermore, the improvement of these original functions is only the second step.

 For him, these two new features are the most useful!

  The bonus of the mimic armor can be said to be quite good.

 As a mage, the cooldown reduction attribute is definitely not too much.

 In particular, he has endless talents, and skill cooldown is more important than spell attack power.

Although the bonus is only 5% now, it can continue to increase!

“I don’t know, what is the upper limit of the cooldown reduction bonus?”

 If the bonus is high enough, it will be comfortable.

 The increase in combat power brought by the reduction in cooldown is the most intuitive.

 Now, the cooldown of his fireballs is a little over 2 seconds, and he can shoot up to thirty fireballs in one minute.

If the cooldown could be reduced to one second, the number of fireballs shot could be doubled!

and…

The faster the skill cools down, the faster he can stack his passive!

Lu Cheng felt satisfied and glanced at the third characteristic.

 The level of the metal flower spirit is the same as that of the settlement hub, which means that as the settlement gradually upgrades, the metal flower spirit will continue to unlock new feature columns!

Looking at this item, Lu Cheng couldn't help but feel happy.

From this point of view, Metal Flower Spirit has a lot of room for growth!

 Then, he started thinking.

 In the previous life, the highest level human city was Level 7. There was only one city, which was built in the 18th year of the disaster.

Level seven is not the upper limit for a city, but it is the upper limit for resources. The upgrade resources for an eighth-level city are too scarce, and they were not able to collect them until the Tongue Puller Civilization came.

However, currently, Settlement No. 1024 has not yet been upgraded to a city, so it is too early to consider this.

 As his combat power gradually increases, the upgrade resources he obtains alone are enough to upgrade the city to level four or even level five.

By then, Metal Flower Spirit will have five characteristic slots, which is stronger than many BOSS!

Thinking in his heart, Lu Cheng felt very comfortable.

On his shoulder, the metal flower spirit gradually regained consciousness.

"Master, I'm fine! Didn't you delay anything?"

 The Metal Flower Spirit spoke, with a hint of nervousness in his joy, fearing that evolution would slow down the progress.

 “No delay.”

Lu Cheng smiled and said, "There happens to be a place that needs you now."

As he spoke, he pointed around and said, "Let's see if we can extract information from these mechanical wreckage."
