Chapter 378 - Advanced Enchantment
"Second skill?" Ajax was puzzled at Cerauno's words and remembered that he didn't check his second skill.
Previously he was in a hurry to absorb the lightning strikes and only checked Cerauno's last skill 'Special Merge'.
"Yes summoning master, didn't you check it already?" This time Cerauno was the one to be puzzled with Ajax.
Until now, Cerauno thought Ajax must have already known about his second skill; however, from the looks of Ajax, he understood that his master didn't check it.
Thinking about it, Ajax immediately focused on Cerauno's second skill.
'Ding,
Skill name:- Advanced Enchantment (Level 2)
Effects:- Increases the power of weapons or artifacts by a certain percent for 10 minutes.
Note:- Weapons produced by the elemental spirit's first skill can be enchanted by 70 percent whereas other weapons can be enchanted by 50 percent of their original power.
Cooldown:- 30 minutes.
Skill Description:- A rare skill that will be awakened by only a very few elemental spirits.
"Why am I wasting time when I have such a skill that is useful for my current situation?" Ajax facepalmed himself when he saw the information on Cerauno's 'Advance Enchantment' skill.
'With this, I can increase the power of Heaven's destroyer by 50 percent. Although I don't know how effective it will be, I hope it will be of some use to Elder Qwerek,' Ajax thought that with this skill he chances of helping Elder Qwerek had improved by a lot.
"Hahaha...Cerauno, the skill you awakened using a random skill crystal is finally useful for the current predicament," Ajax laughed loudly as he nodded his head.
Even though the Enhancement skill was only a common skill, it could increase the 'Advanced Enchantment' skill's level from level 2 to level 3 and which would increase the percent in enchanting the weapons or artifacts.
Ajax already knew how good Cerauno's weapon-making skill was, so with this advance enchantment coupled with Enhancement skills, Ajax finally felt his confidence in attacking the main lightning strike.
"Come out, Cerauno,"
Since he had enough confidence, Ajax didn't hesitate any longer and summoned Cerauno out of his inner world while coming out of his spirit consciousness form.
As Ajax was coming out of his inner world along with Cerauno, all the elders consolidated their newly gained cultivation realms and started talking to each other.
"Tribe leader will destroy this main lightning strike, right?" Eica, who was youngest among all the elders worriedly asked other elders while looking at Qwerek who was in a stalemate with the lightning strike.
"Did you forget, tribe leader Qwerek still didn't use his one of the most powerful skills?" Kraiww looked at Qwerek first and then looked at Eica before calming her while mentioning some powerful skill.
"Yes, but why is he still not using it? If he used that, then it's all over in a matter of seconds," Eica nodded her head but asked why Qwerek was not using that powerful skill yet.
"He is waiting for a perfect time to destroy it and when he did that, you will surely be surprised...Haha," Elder Cretaul, laughed lightly as he stood up from the ground.
"Huh?"
Seeing his laugh, except for the Hawk captain, all the others who were in that area raised their brows and looked at the first elder, who was acting mysteriously.
"Its tribe leader's order not to divulge any information until he finished destroying the lightning strike," when he saw the expressions on his fellow elders' faces, the First elder shook his head and said he couldn't say anything about it.
All the elders dejected hearing those words and expectantly looked at their tribe leader and waited for what would happen next.
"By the way, did anyone notice that Ajax's cultivation level reached the level 1 of the elite commander realm?" As though she suddenly remembered something, Eica pointed at Ajax, who was cultivating (in their view) and asked Kraiww, who was beside her.
"Yes, his cultivation is now level 1 of the elite commander realm," Kraiww looked at Ajax and nodded his head agreeing to her.
"Don't you find something weird?" Eica glared at Kraiww and continued to ask other elders beside her.
"There is nothing wrong in his elevation as he absorbed the rich lightning essence of nature and not to forget he even absorbed the five lightning strikes that are released by the lightning tribulation clouds," Kraiww didn't mind her glare as he considered her as his little sister and it was common between them.
"My idiotic brother, before he could absorb the mild essence of nature, he had already reached the level 1 of the elite commander realm and he even absorbed the mild lightning essence of nature but still didn't make any breakthrough in his cultivation. So, what do you think?" Eica lightly hit Kraiww's head and explained a lengthy explanation about Ajax's cultivation breakthroughs.
"Really?" Kraiww and Krail shouted at the same time as though they were shocked.
That's right! They were shocked by Eica's explanation.
Since it was an impossible thing not to make a breakthrough after absorbing the mild lightning essence of nature from the destroyed lightning strike.
Earlier they were not focusing on Ajax or on his cultivation as they were already in a troubled situation. So they were shocked with Ajax not making a breakthrough even after absorbing the mild essence of nature.
'Aarghh'
As they were discussing Ajax's cultivation level, they heard Qwerek's painful cry and immediately shifted their heads to their tribe leader.
"Tribe leader, are you alright?"
"Please, use that powerful skill already. We don't want any surprises at your sacrifice,"
"Stop waiting, tribe leader. Our tribe already received a huge boost in every tribe member's cultivation. So, no need to waste time any longer,"
Except for the first elder Cretual, all the other elders asked Qwerek to use his skill and stop wasting any time.
Earlier, when they heard Creutal's words, they already guessed, Qwerek must have some kind of plan to benefit the tribe; however, with each passing second of time, they felt that the burden on Qwerek was increasing.
If it was continued and his plan didn't work or if something unexpected had happened then they would have to say goodbyes to him forever.
So, they directly said that there was no need to take a risk and also mentioned that the Hawk tribe now had sufficient strength when compared to other two tribes in the Shixto wilds.
"Tribe leader, how confident are you in making our plan work?" As all the elders were stopping Qwerek, the first elder Cretual was asked something very different that made other elders angry.
How could they not be angry with Cretual's words? Indirectly, he was asking Qwerek to continue with the plan.
However, they didn't say anything and waited for Qwerek's answer.
"50 percent...I need a little help to make our plan work," Qwerek, who was at a stalemate previously, had now in a disadvantageous position with the main lightning strike said while gritting his teeth.
"What help? I can help,"
All the elders asked Qwerek, for what they needed to do in order to reach a 100 percent success rate.
"Sigh..." To their reply, Elder Qwerek shook his head as though it would not work out.
