Lord of the Nation: My talent is 100 million points strong

Chapter 1258 New Skills

Standing near the storage wooden box which also had a refined appearance, Lei Xiao directly began to extract the upgrade reward this time.

[Congratulations, you have obtained the "Fifth Level Skill Scroll: Thunderstorm Tower"! ]

[Congratulations, you have obtained the "Fifth Level Skill Scroll: Chain Arc Light"! ]

[Congratulations, you have obtained the "Fifth-Level Magic Scroll: Summoning the Forest Elf Swordmaster"! ]

[Congratulations, you have obtained the "Fifth-Level Magic Scroll: Healing of the Great Temple"! ]

"Let's not talk about the two magic scrolls for now. Just from the names of the two skill scrolls, they are indeed a perfect match for my magic attributes!"

When the prompt sound ended, a look of joy appeared on Lei Xiao's face.

As I continue to grow, my skills are already very good and I can exert my strength to the greatest extent.

But as the saying goes, more skills are better than less, these are the basis for one's foothold on the battlefield. Who doesn't want as many as possible?
"Learning one more combat skill not only means I will have a new way of fighting to cope with more complex and diverse combat environments, but my own survival ability will also be improved."

Lei Xiao rubbed his hands excitedly and couldn't wait to check the attribute columns of the two skill scrolls.

"[Fifth-Level Skill Scroll: Thunderstorm Tower] summons a lightning-attribute attack magic tower that continuously and automatically attacks surrounding targets, while [Fifth-Level Skill Scroll: Chain Arc Light] is a control skill that can paralyze a group of targets?"

Lei Xiao's eyes wandered back and forth between the attribute bars of the two skill scrolls, and a hint of contemplation emerged on his face.

I had noticed this when I was dealing with the gnolls alone.

Although he could switch between melee combat and magic freely as he practiced both magic and magic, his attack methods were relatively simple and would soon be fully mastered by his opponents, who would then have to make corresponding countermeasures. He also lacked the means of large-scale control and could only rely on his own high-speed movement to avoid the opponent's attacks.

And now, with these two new skill scrolls, he can undoubtedly make up for his own combat shortcomings to a great extent and further enhance his overall combat effectiveness!

"Without further delay, let's follow the planned plan and transform them all into level six first."

In addition to being happy, Lei Xiao started upgrading directly.

[Congratulations, your "Level 5 Skill Scroll: Thunderstorm Tower" has been upgraded to "Level 6 Skill Scroll: Dragon Slayer Thunder Tower"! ]

[Congratulations, your "Level 5 Skill Scroll: Chain Arc Lightning" has been upgraded to "Level 6 Skill Scroll: Lightning Arc Burst"! ]

“I have to say, after the Gold Finger was upgraded to level 2, I no longer have to worry about the upgrade direction being deviated.”

Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction, took out two brand new scrolls surrounded by purple light from the storage box, and first opened the attribute column of [Dragon-Slaying Thunder Tower].

[Name: Dragon-killing Thunder Tower]

[Level: Level 6]

[Description: A lightning-attributed magic spell that can be used to summon a group of long-range magic creatures. It is a lightning summoning spell created by a sixth-level great magician of the Winged People. It can summon the magical creature "Dragon-Slaying Thunder Tower" to automatically attack surrounding targets. It can also help the caster improve the power of his own lightning spells.

"Dragon-killing Thunder Tower" has special effects on dragons and sub-dragons. The duration and attack power are related to the caster's own strength.

In addition, the "Dragon Slayer Thunder Tower" can summon multiple ones at the same time, and they can be connected to each other. The more there are at the same time, the stronger the attack power will be. The number of existing ones is also related to the strength of the caster. 】

"Wow, not only can it be used in two ways: automatic attack and increasing spell power, but it can also increase each other's damage? Compared to the fifth-level Thunderstorm Tower, its function has been improved by more than one level!"

Lei Xiao looked at the text description on the attribute column, and the joy on his face became more and more obvious.

Putting aside another way of increasing the power of spells, the automatic attack effect alone will undoubtedly be of great help to oneself.

Especially when facing a large number of opponents, as long as a few of these things are summoned in the enemy's army, the scene can be imagined.

"Oh, and there's an additional effect that's special for dragons."

"Speaking of which, how deep is the resentment of the Winged People against the Dragons? Whether it's spells, golems, puppets, or even a lot of equipment, they are simply using every possible means."

Lei Xiao smiled helplessly, then he regained his spirit, sat cross-legged in front of the storage wooden box, injected a ray of energy directly into the [Dragon-Slaying Thunder Tower] skill scroll, and began to study.

Time passed quickly, and when Lei Xiao opened his eyes again, his gaze became deeper.

While perfectly mastering the powerful skills of the Winged People, Lei Xiao also learned a lot of profound and obscure knowledge through the energy operation of spells, the drawing of spell magic circles, spell incantations, etc., which brought his overall understanding of magic to a whole new level.

"Magic power materializes. It turns out that magical creations are created through this wonderful way of energy circulation. I will practice it when I have time. I wonder to what extent I can perform it even though I haven't even reached the sixth level yet."

While looking forward to it, Lei Xiao also set his eyes on another ancient scroll with deep purple patterns depicted on it.

Lei Xiao could even vaguely feel that the scroll itself still had a hint of damp and ancient scent, as if it had just been obtained from some unknown ancient relic.

"Lightning Arc Explosion, it sounds like a pretty impressive name."

Feeling the ancient atmosphere coming towards him, Lei Xiao couldn't wait to open the attribute column of the scroll.

【Name: Lightning Arc Explosion】

[Level: Level 6]

[Description: Lightning attribute magic group remote control, a long-lost ancient lightning spell, said to have been created by a chosen son of God when he was fighting against tens of thousands of alchemical puppets alone. It can cause damage to more than one group of targets and add paralysis effects, achieving the purpose of restraining the opponent's actions.

As long as one target is damaged by the spell, the exploding lightning arc will quickly jump to other targets around it, also causing paralysis. 】

"This is simply a magical skill when fighting against multiple opponents. After all, the lightning arc after paralyzing the opponent can also be chained. As long as it hits the target in the middle of the enemy, the other opponents will also be implicated."

Lei Xiao looked at the introduction on the attribute column and nodded thoughtfully.

No, to be more precise, this is a magical skill for when facing a large army alone. If I had mastered this skill in advance, wouldn't I be able to control the situation when fighting against the densely packed army of gnolls?
"All in all, this makes up for my lack of crowd control skills."

Lei Xiao did not hesitate and injected another ray of energy into the ancient scroll, causing a stream of obscure knowledge to surge into his mind like a huge wave.

When his slightly swollen head returned to normal, Lei Xiao couldn't help but let out a long sigh and slowly opened his eyes.

At this point, he had undoubtedly mastered two new spells, laying a new foundation for his next step into the outer realms.

"Although it is difficult for me, as a commander, to face a situation where I need to fight alone, once such a situation occurs, I will naturally exert my combat power to the maximum extent so as not to distract the subordinates in other positions."

Lei Xiao's eyes were as sharp as torches, and he focused his attention on the other two fifth-level magic scrolls.

"Summoning of the Forest Elf Swordmaster and the Blessing of the Great Temple? The name is obvious. It is a summoning scroll and a healing scroll at first glance."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and checked the properties of the two scrolls one by one.

Sure enough, it was just as he thought. The former could summon a forest elf swordsman golem puppet to participate in the battle, while the latter opened a temporary healing barrier and treated thousands of wounded soldiers at the same time.

"So far, I already have quite a few fifth-tier summoning scrolls and healing scrolls."

"Although fifth-tier magic scrolls are extremely rare in the human world, there are many fourth-tier scrolls in stock. After being upgraded, it became the fifth-tier scroll I have."

Thinking of this in his heart, Lei Xiao pondered and nodded.

In this case, why not just upgrade the two newly acquired fifth-level scrolls to sixth-level? After all, there is a qualitative change between the fifth and sixth levels.

Although he possessed some sixth-level attack scrolls, defense scrolls, and healing scrolls upgraded from the Alchemist Guild and the Mercenary Guild, he did not have the rarer summoning scrolls.

Having made up his mind, Lei Xiao started upgrading directly.

[Congratulations, your "Level 5 Magic Scroll: Summoning the Forest Elf Sword Master" has been upgraded to "Level 6 Magic Scroll: Summoning the Forest Elf Sword King"! ]

[Congratulations, your "Fifth-Level Magic Scroll: Healing of the Grand Temple" has been upgraded to "Sixth-Level Magic Scroll: Blessing of the Gods' Land"! ]

"Not bad, not bad. I have two new trump cards."

Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction, put the two new sixth-level scrolls into the space bracelet, and fell into deep thought again.

The reason why fifth-order magic scrolls are extremely rare in the human world is that the raw materials for making fifth-order blank magic scrolls are too scarce.

Secondly, the number of fifth-tier magicians is extremely limited, and creating a magic scroll requires a lot of energy. It is not a one-day job. It often takes more than ten days or even longer, and there is also the risk of suffering from magic backlash.

Most of the fifth-level warriors hold important positions and are busy with official duties, so it is naturally difficult for them to focus on making magic scrolls.

"Under my leadership, the number of fifth-level experts in the human race has been growing in an orderly manner. After the wars in various places have been quelled, many national-level experts no longer need to guard against each other. Perhaps I should organize a team specializing in making magic scrolls."

"After all, I have tried it before. Magic scrolls can also be decomposed into raw materials like potions, so the materials for making blank scrolls are not a problem."

"If I have a complete fifth-tier magic scroll supply system, my overall strength will naturally be further improved."

"Let's discuss this with Jonil and Gray Elder to see if it's feasible. After all, blank scrolls also need professionals to make them, and the experts who make the scrolls won't be able to participate in other activities."

Having made up his mind, Lei Xiao stood up from his seat. After telling Xiao Jie that she could move freely in the territory, he walked towards the training ground not far away and began to refine magic potions to further improve his strength.

Since the time required to upgrade the mansion took much longer than expected, Lei Xiao had just instructed his subordinates to take a rest and to summon new subordinates and transform the territory tomorrow morning.

After the refining was completed, Lei Xiao, feeling refreshed, walked into the lord's suite which was much more spacious.

I saw that Ariel had been picked up by Jiang Xi and was busy tidying up the new bedroom and making the bed, looking very busy.

"My Lord, we are already as close to the Lion Castle here!"

Seeing Lei Xiao, Ariel immediately came up to him, her fair face full of surprise.

"As long as her Majesty is satisfied."

Lei Xiao smiled faintly and responded: "Then let me and my dear Queen personally experience the new environment."

……

The next day, before dawn, Lei Xiao climbed out of bed.

According to the planned schedule, today will be an extremely fulfilling day. He will also be able to learn about the situation on other plates through the new subordinates he summoned, so Lei Xiao has no intention of sleeping in at all.

After washing up, Lei Xiao, neatly dressed, walked into the door of the lord's office.

"Get today's recruitment order and crystal!"

After upgrading the two third-level recruitment orders, Lei Xiao's mind moved, and a new teleportation crystal appeared in his palm.

"Let me see what kind of item the teleportation crystal can be upgraded to."

Feeling the cool sensation coming from the small light gray crystal, Lei Xiao directly used the golden finger.

[Congratulations, your "Teleportation Crystal" has been upgraded to "Teleportation Cornerstone"! ]

"Teleportation cornerstone?"

Out of curiosity, Lei Xiao opened the attribute column of the teleportation cornerstone.

After some checking, Lei Xiao found out.

It turns out that this teleportation cornerstone is a necessary material for building a portal. It is necessary to first bind two teleportation cornerstones to each other, and then activate them in two places respectively to form a fixed portal. As long as the cornerstone is not destroyed, the portal can exist permanently.

"So it's the necessary material to build a portal? This is a function that has not been realized in the human world for three thousand years."

Lei Xiao looked at the text on the attribute bar, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"However, I have already established a complete transmission network in the human world through Jiang Xi, and I also have two God-favored Lands to assist me. As long as Jiang Xi or the God-favored Lands are by my side, I can travel freely in the human world and can dispatch troops anytime and anywhere."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao frowned slightly again.

Although the portal is indeed extremely convenient, it is not of much help to me at the moment.

"By the way, although I can't use it, for others who can't summon Jiang Yu and the Land of God's Blessing at any time, this is still a coveted good thing."

"For example, if we build a portal between the town of Tel where Qin Qian is and the depths of the Songyin Mountains where the dwarf train is located, wouldn't it be more convenient for the R&D lords to conduct research and travel back and forth?"

Just when Lei Xiao was thinking of this, on the other side far away, another scene happened that Lei Xiao could not have predicted.
