Gauss quickly reached a conclusion.
He opened the panel.
Too bad.
After activating [Ghost Form], his six-dimensional attributes appeared as a series of question marks.
It seems he was deemed to be in an abnormal state and couldn’t display normally.
Besides his body becoming stronger, the flow speed of magic power inside him also rapidly increased.
And it was also wrapped and entangled by a pale energy.
Gauss suddenly had a special feeling, to verify it.
He leapt to the side.
"Magic Missile!"
In mid-air, at the tip of his right index fingertip, a cluster of blue energy suddenly condensed.
"Whoosh!!"
The blue energy left the fingertip, swiftly hitting the rapidly crawling white construct in the distance.
"Boom!!" Milky-white airwaves roiled quickly on the surface of the white construct.
A fingertip missile blew a huge hole in the white construct, flipping the entire body over, rolling twice.
Not long after, the fine white sand that composed the body suddenly collapsed and dispersed, merging into the ground.
"I’m so strong!" Gauss took a deep breath.
Sure enough, his feeling was correct.
Under [Ghost Form], his magic enhancements were also significant.
The pale energy seemed to be able to wrap around the magic power and provide a buff effect.
This was also why he could suddenly cast spells quickly while moving, and the power of the Magic Missile became greater.
This kind of attack should be quite powerful even among 3rd levels, right?
Keep in mind, Magic Missile is a 1st-level spell, and 3rd-level casters can already use 2nd-level spells.
And Gauss judged that most 3rd-level professionals probably couldn’t easily one-shot a 2nd-level demon; perhaps spending some time and causing a kill wouldn’t be difficult.
However, what caught Gauss’s attention wasn’t just that the magic power increased, but that he could freely and deftly use magic while moving.
This aspect is very rare.
Because using magic requires a great deal of concentration.
So most people will maintain a relatively fixed posture while casting to maximize the success rate.
"Hoo——"
Feeling the rapid consumption and depletion of energy inside him, Gauss let out a long breath.
First, he deactivated [Ghost Form].
The buff effect of this racial talent was indeed very apparent, almost a radical transformation.
However, the consumption of energy was also astonishingly high.
He had only moved a few times, and already half of his physical energy was consumed.
Although there are energy storage glands as a backup hidden energy source, it still couldn’t be used for long periods; it’s almost impossible to sustain [Ghost Form] by supplementing energy through feeding.
That is to say, once [Ghost Form] is activated, it must be a quick battle!
Either the enemy dies or I perish.
"It seems this talent isn’t useful for killing ordinary small monsters or enemies within a manageable range; it’s only when facing opponents stronger than oneself that it comes into play."
Of course, not too strong, or else the enhancements of Ghost Form would also be ineffective.
If facing truly powerful demons, activating Ghost Form would only mean dying with a bit more dignity.
Gauss rested in the training room for a while.
Replenishing energy, Gauss did not waste the remaining usage time, he summoned other targets, and continued training other skills and spells.
An hour passed in the blink of an eye.
Gauss left the room.
Heading towards the lobby where he just met the Half-Snake Man.
Although there’s still half an hour left, there’s nothing else to do now, so it would be better to find a spot to wait in advance.
But to his surprise, the Half-Snake Man arrived earlier than him.
He was already in the hall reading a book.
"So early."
"I just arrived." Serdur closed the book.
Gauss faintly smiled at these words, saying nothing.
He suspected that no matter when he came, Serdur would say he just arrived.
Serdur put down the book, his snake eyes narrowed slightly, pausing on Gauss for a brief moment.
Not you, buddy...
With a pause in his heart.
Serdur felt that the aura around Gauss had become stronger.
Even though the last time they met was just an hour ago.
So, was it an illusion?
PS: There should be another Chapter tonight.
