Chapter 383 - 357: Little Fei Grows Through Blood Sacrifice and Battle
Now, with the achievements from eating the books just now, Da Fei’s Life Value had soared by 210 points, reaching an awe-inspiring total of over 500 points, which was an incredible amount whether as a commander of the legion or as a solo adventurer. However, Life Value that doesn’t generate enormous value was quite useless, right?
The Blood Sacrifice began!
—System Prompt: You used the special skill "Blood Sacrifice" from the Reconnaissance Spirit Eagle Flute. You sacrificed a certain amount of your Life Limit to enhance the strength of the Spirit Eagle. The current optimal amount for the Blood Sacrifice is 50 Life Value. Would you like to proceed with the optimal Blood Sacrifice?
Exchanging 50 Life Points would make ordinary players spit blood and jump off a building, but for me, it’s nothing—confirm!
A flash of blood light from the Blood Eagle Flute, and Da Fei’s Life Limit dropped by 50 points, then the Blood Eagle Flute flashed with white light!
—System Prompt: Congratulations! With your Blood Sacrifice, your Reconnaissance Spirit Eagle Little Fei has grown! Little Fei’s Attack +1, Life +5, Stamina +5, Mana +5. Gained 1 Growth Skill Point.
—Growth Skill Point: Your Reconnaissance Eagle is connected with your heroic bloodline, possessing the potential for free growth. You can spend 1 Growth Skill Point to teach it a hero skill or magic. Growth Skill Points can only be obtained through Blood Sacrifice.
—Growing Reconnaissance Spirit Eagle (Little Fei): Small-sized Spiritual Elite Creature, Attack 5, Defense 0, Damage 1-2, Life 8, Mana +5, Command Value: 0, Attack Speed: 15, Stamina: 35/35. Special Skill: Flying Creature, God-level Reconnaissance Technique, Plane Surveillance.
...
Da Fei was caught in a huge shock!
Growth Skill Point! I’ve never heard of this before! Damn it! Although I’ve also trained Banshee Elites and taught them bombardment, their growth relied on innate talent, acquired understanding, and my awesome skills, which were extremely difficult to replicate! But this Spirit Eagle directly gets a skill point, and I can teach it whatever I want?
So this is it! This is the benefit of Blood Sacrifice! It’s a surprising reward from a scam skill; it’s totally like having a favored son! In other words, this is also a Tycoon Skill. If you’re not a tycoon eating books and bleeding to raise it, who could afford it?
Great! Very good, I haven’t decided what skill it should learn, and I’m not satisfied with the attributes it gained from this growth, but the biggest benefit is full stamina, so let’s start clearing the field!
Da Fei delved into the woods and summoned Little Fei again far away from the logging team!
Come on, the last battle wasn’t satisfying because reconnaissance left little stamina, but this time, with full stamina in battle, let’s fight to our heart’s content!
As Little Fei appeared, the whole forest’s crows took flight, and a huge black cloud of crows once again surrounded Da Fei and Little Fei, and the battle began!
Da Fei, needless to say, was as stable as a mountain amidst the crow swarm. Little Fei’s eagle claws flashed, dodging expertly, and one crow after another fell. This time, Little Fei didn’t disappoint Da Fei. When the crows piled into a small mountain, its stamina finally faltered. No worries, I still have blood for Blood Sacrifice, then resume the fight with full stamina, haha!
And just then, a flash of white light in the sky!
—System Prompt: Congratulations! Your Reconnaissance Spirit Eagle Little Fei grew during battle! Attack +1, Life +1, Stamina +1. Grasped new special skill: Long Sky Eagle Strike.
—Long Sky Eagle Strike: A raptor flaps its powerful wings to cause area damage to multiple targets in aerial combat, with Damage Value shared among targets.
Da Fei was suddenly taken aback, then wildly ecstatic! So that’s how it is! Through battles, it grows to perceive its biological special skill, adding fewer attributes, and naturally, no Skill Points, which is the biggest difference from Blood Sacrifice!
Now Little Fei’s stamina was full again, a true warrior. Most importantly, it learned the eagle’s signature aerial combat skill, turning battles from single target kills into area attacks! How much does that improve field-clearing efficiency?
Sure enough, instead of one crow falling at a time, the crow swarm became mass falling like rain!
Da Fei laughed aloud! This realization was indeed a qualitative leap! If it were one-on-one single attacks, with Attack 60, Damage 3-4, plus Little Fei’s Advanced Attack Skill against a crow with 0 Defense and one or two Life Points, what would the damage be? 1 Attack adds 5% Damage, so 60 Attack means 300%, equaling 12-16, plus Advanced Attack Skill increases by 30% to 15-20, that’s overkill!
Now with the new special skill, as long as there are 10 crows in front of Little Fei, it can fan them all dead, increasing efficiency tenfold! This is necessary; dealing with such swarm creatures demands area attacks! Following this trend of growth, clearing the entire forest of crows is no dream! Haha, wahaha! Let the crow swarm come more fiercely!
Now the battle wasn’t a problem, Da Fei started thinking leisurely about Little Fei’s future growth direction, that is, the Growth Skill Point matter.
Clearly, learning this Skill Point is very similar to Vice Heroes. But Little Fei’s main function was long-distance reconnaissance; Reconnaissance Skill was already learned, so what other skill should it learn? A speed-enhancing Logistics Skill? But wait! Isn’t Logistics Skill for "land" movement? This guy flies in the air! And it’s already flying, isn’t it already fast?
Or maybe a Defense Skill to enhance survival? Even more unreliable! The Flying Eagle’s growth was clearly meant for attacking, right? So, an Attack Skill? Jilrien boasted that when it grows up, it could launch aerial attacks on discovered targets, meaning the Ranger’s position for the Flying Eagle was an offensive assassin, so teaching it Attack Skill seemed the most reliable plan.
However, such a badass Flying Eagle learning such a mundane skill did indeed leave Da Fei dissatisfied. At the very least, in situations like joint combat now, the main hero’s skill directly covers the whole team, learning Attack Skill rendered it useless. In other words, its skill should best complement Da Fei. The problem was, it wasn’t a hero, so skills could only affect itself, making it impossible to complement each other.
This meant, learning ordinary hero skills wasn’t worthy of it; it must learn something extraordinary? Like the whole set of orc-exclusive passive skills "Anti-Light Magic," "Anti-Dark Magic," "Anti-Destruction Magic," but could these skills be learned by an eagle? Plus, they seemed even more unreliable than Defense Skills!
How about the Bloodsucking Skill? Damn! It’s already been sold, and my Little Fei isn’t Demon Blood.
Looking at the skill training matter, careful consideration was still necessary, and certainly, a legendary hidden Divine Skill should be learned to live up to all this effort on Da Fei’s part.
Just as Da Fei pondered, another System Prompt appeared.
—System Prompt: Your Reconnaissance Blood Eagle has insufficient stamina and cannot fight, disappearing soon...
Oh? Out of stamina? Not leveled up yet? Come on, my Blood Sacrifice is ready! After the Blood Sacrifice, it should level up soon and regain full stamina for another fight, right? Very well, next time, I’m going big, I’ll attract all the crows from this large forest here! (To be continued.
