Chapter 179 - Skill Combination at its best (I)
Barbatos kept her awareness on the figures of 7 Mythical ranked beasties that had just advanced to that rank through the hands of this increasingly mysterious Atlantean. Her interest only continued to be piqued as she wandered around the exquisite houses seen all over the isolated treasure and all the luxuries they held.
She didn't know how, but she continued to be surprised by the things the little fish continued to pull out. The battle in the water was particularly disastrous for the three Deep Sea Creatures that had neared the isolated space treasure, with the newly advanced beasties that the Atlantean sent out actually having power at the peak of the Mythical rank with the appearance of the new armor.
The little bird shining with silver light was the most eye-catching one as it teleported across the waters and shredded the bodies of the large sea creatures with surprise attacks. Never would it be in one position for longer than 1 second as the battle was nearing its end just as it had begun.
OONG
The sea creature facing the penguin let out a deathly howl as it fell under the oppressive strength, while the other two Mythical creatures that were swarmed by three other armored beasts found themselves in the same situation.
Just as it had begun, the battle quickly ended. Barbatos looked at these now powerful beasts that could barely withstand her aura before but were now seemingly fully established in the Mythical rank. Her expectations for the Atlantean were further increased by every second she continued to watch him. Just what else did he have up his sleeves?
---
The use of [Beast Armament] was particularly powerful, giving the beasts power at the peak of Mythical rank as Noah provided the mana to keep the transformation of the beasts active. This was just one of the ways to use the [Offensive Maneuvers] of the Spiritual Land, there was one more he could still use now, and even more to be unlocked in the future.
He stopped providing energy as the grandiose pieces of armor began to fade from the bodies of the beasts as they carried the dead sea creatures back into the Spiritual Land. The arrogant penguin flashed by Noah's side with the bodies of the dead fish, making it 5 Mythical creatures that came into Noah's possession just in the past few hours.
Multiple skill books, cores, and items were brought by the [Emperor Penguin] as Noah came to now hold six more skill books as well four items of the Mythical rank. He placed them in the [Sea Pearl] as soon as the penguin teleported them in front of him, looking forward to observing their details in a few minutes as he got started with using the two acre long [Time Space].
The beasts and this unique treasure were originally from the Beast World, and they now held the same system of power from Noah's homeworld. This combination, as well as the uniqueness of the Spiritual Land would allow for something rarely seen across worlds.
They could upgrade their strength with cores and skill books just like Noah, and as long as their strength rose to the next level, he could upgrade the Spiritual Land once again. This made Noah excited and apprehensive at the same time, as he felt like he was breaking a tremendous amount of rules with the things he was about to do.
It was unnatural and scary even as his mind mixed together the possibilities of the quick rise in the beast's strength, the usage of [Skill Combination] and [Time Dilation], and the many other features of the Spiritual Land. His heart palpitated just at the thought of it.
His gaze landed towards Barbatos that was nonchalantly going through the section of the Spiritual Land where he built Atlantean style houses after going past the modern and ancient architecture he had been experimenting with during his down time. His voice traveled towards her as he continued to observe her piqued interest.
"I'll be improving my strength a little in the next few days. I can trust you to not destroy and kill anything if you become bored?"
Her ears twitched as she turned towards him from quite a distance below, before a nonchalant reply came.
"I don't think I'll be bored for quite a while, little fish. Just provide me with some of that amazing food you made before every day until we get to the time limit of the contract and I'll be your best friend you know?"
Noah listened to these words and he believed them, as they lined up with the personality he had watched in the many stolen memories. He nodded towards her and prepared to move to the underground section of the Spiritual Land while giving directions to the [Emperor Penguin] and other beasts to follow him.
The beasts had more of a connection to the Spiritual Land and had a sense of what Noah was now trying to do as they moved excitedly. The figures flashed in a silver light that spread from the [Emperor Penguin] as they all appeared outside the area of many erected monoliths that were connected to each other with thin blue lines.
The monoliths encircled an area of two acres as they stood imposingly, a source of power that they hadn't come across before being felt. The two acres was a huge section of land where the manipulation of time would occur. Noah nodded his head with enthusiasm as his figure flashed into the middle of the large acres.
The mana of the Spiritual Land Master was required to activate and keep active the [Time Dilation] in this space, so Noah's nigh-infinite mana broke the rules once again by allowing him to keep it active at all times.
The beasts entered the large field of the Time Space as Noah closed his eyes and activated the long-awaited [Time Dilation]. A burst of blue light released from him as the thin lines connecting the many risen monoliths around the two circular acres of land equivalent to 871,00 square feet lit up.
The area larger than two football fields was briefly covered with a blinding silver light as those in it felt something change, but they couldn't grasp what. Noah's mind that was connected to the Spiritual Land felt the distinct differences as it felt everything outside of the field they were in was going at five times slower speed. Five hours here would be just an hour outside.
His smile became wider as he confirmed this time difference, realizing he was about to do something world breaking once more.
