Novel Full Chapter 98 - Behold!

Although Benladann's mold has amazing potential, in this world filled with all types of magic and beasts, I don't think our path to the top will be so easy as to just keep infecting people with mold.
I don't think strong enough cultivators will easily let the mold infect them, they might even find some way to expulse it off their bodies through overcharging their mana veins with their elemental magic.
It seems that the mold is strong, but it is by no means immune to magic, enough damage on it will kill it like any other living being. And unlike most living beings in this fantastical world, mold has no resistances and seems to be extremely weak to fire and strong vibrations, as we had tested it with Benladann this last week.
It even has the same weaknesses as Venom! I guess being an OP slimy black ooze comes with some weaknesses…
SO not everything will be easy even if she masters this. But it all depends on how we can use it.
Infecting weak-ass people might be easy though, and just having a few spies inside important cities that can communicate telepathically with Benladann from long distances might be enough.
Yeah, those infected by the mold held a strange mental connection with Benladann, which made them somewhat of a hive mind of sorts, and they were able to share thoughts and information easily even from incredibly long distances.
Benladann recalled that she was able to communicate with an infected animal with mold she had left in another continent in her previous life.
She has a lot of potentials and is slowly unveiling it, I can't help but feel a bit excited to see what's next, and I am also glad that she is getting over her fears with my guidance and emotional support.
Oh right, aside from this, she learned all sorts of techniques.
Axe Technique, Shield Technique, Armor Technique, and Unarmed Fighting Technique.
Techniques are easy to work with, you need to memorize a specific pattern of attack which you use while infusing mana into the weapon, armor, shield, or body part.
For example… I created my Whip Technique "Ice Whip" which is quite literally my own tail covered in ice which I move like a whip. As I activate it, the skill activates as well and enhances the effect even further.
The same goes for Vertical Slash using Benladann's axe, and things like that. For her armor, shield, and body is the same.
She infuses mana into her armor, and it suddenly gets tougher as she activates the Mana Armor Technique, or the same happens with her shield if she activates the Mana Shield Technique.
And if she uses the Strong Punch Unarmed Fighting Technique, she can punch harder by infusing mana into her fists.
Or if she wants to pick stronger, she uses the Flash Kick to enhance her leg's speed by infusing mana into them and kicking hard and fast.
Just like that, anyone that learn these special Techniques, which also made me realize how strange this world was.
It seems that people can quite literally develop game-like abilities, albeit there is no system for them to see them, they are there and get accumulated like Abilities inside a game.
Even if I weren't able to see them through the Analysis function of my System, I would be able to realize that they were there.
Although I have also realized that my System and powers, and probably my very teachings are affecting Benladann's growth and hastening it.
She is by o means getting a system of her own or something, but it is as if she was becoming part of it without having it… Weird, right?
Perhaps this is why she's becoming able to learn Abilities so quickly. Albeit it would be nice if she could level them up as well.
It would be cool if I could actually share the System with those I trust and care for, but for now, that's impossible, and it is better to leave it at that for now.
Aaaaand, aside from all of this… behold!
…
<Weapon>
[Spear of Freezing Winter: Skadi (B-Grade+)]
A powerful giant spear with a length of almost 10 meters crafted purely out of Magic Ice conjured by a powerful and talented Ice Dragon.
Its name has given it unique properties and its creation was made with immense amounts of effort and time.
This weapon can evolve while bathing in the blood of its victims.
[Durability: 6000/6000]
[Attack Power: 5500]
[Magic Conductivity: 4500]
[Weapon Speed: 6000]
[Traits: [Evolving Weapon (B)], [Piercing Ice Spikes (B)], [Furious Dragon Strength (B)], [Auto-Repair (B)], [Winter Storm (B)], [Skadi's Blessing (B)], [Slaughter Healing (B)], [Levitate (B)], [Independent Weapon (B)]
…
Yes!
I made this beautiful and giant spear throughout this whole week.
I saw how Benladann had cool equipment and thought, "Hey, why not me?"
I mean, I am a giant dragon, and every part of my body is a deadly weapon, but what if I just make a giant super spear that flies around killing stuff while I am busy with other monsters?
And that's how Skadi, my first and greatest weapon so far came to be.
I just made it on a whim on the first day of the last week.
Through the use of the Parallel Minds, I left like three of them (one emerge every level of the skill) crafting this weapon through Ice Magic alone, reinforcing it, and using a crap ton of mana.
So while I did everything through all these days, there was a giant stick of ice floating at my side slowly growing bigger.
I think this was the limit of my capabilities, I don't think I can make anything stronger unless I grow stronger.
I was also the one that gave it the fancy name and put on it "Skadi" like the goddess of winter of Norse mythology, because it was pretty fitting, not going to lie.
The result of all my efforts was this kick-ass spear that could easily decimate an Ice Bear in seconds.
I can also control it through Wind Magic or even launch it through Projectile Fire, and it will fly back at me due to being kind of independent in a way.
