Chapter 500 - 370 Reigniting the Glory of the Battle Mage_3
For some reason, there seemed to be an extraordinary aura about Lis, rendering them speechless.
It was then they truly realized that although young, Lis had become one of the top powerhouses in the Feis Kingdom.
Unlike these nobles, Risa had been worried about Lis's safety all along. The moment she saw him, she hurriedly checked him over, and only relaxed when she was sure he was unharmed.
When Lis left the banquet hall with Duke House, Risa noticed, and it made her somewhat panicked, even contemplating seeking help from Mr. Stephens.
However, remembering Lis's reminder, she stayed dutifully in the banquet hall afterwards.
Lis was a bit tired last night, too. After taking Risa home, he fell asleep holding her as was his custom.
Seeing how weary Lis looked, Risa also willingly went with the flow.
Perhaps because he was holding the fragrant Risa, Lis's sleep quality last night was surprisingly good, except for the numbness in the arm Risa used as a pillow.
Right, there were also the rewards from yesterday's battle settlement.
All of a sudden, Lis remembered this and called up the system interface.

-----------------
Lis, lying on the bed, squinted slightly. It was another flash of light!
As expected, the previous luck had accumulated, and it compensated all at once during the draw!
Among the gains this time, Lis was directly given four specialties, and they were all useful ones.
Especially [Assassination Skill], which could be considered a top-tier specialty for the assassin profession, perfectly fitting the abilities of an assassin. Very few players in the past life could master this specialty.
In Stealth State, reducing the probability of being detected by enemies, concealing traces, and the additional 30% Critical Strike rate and 50% Critical Strike damage on the first attack against a target greatly increased the assassin's ability to kill with one strike.
Especially along with [Weakness Insight] and [Melee Mastery], it simply took Lis' assassination capabilities to a new level.
Lis was certain, if he had had these three specialties during the previous battle, he would not have needed to prepare so much; he could have just attempted to ambush Mei Lulan directly.
Besides, [Weakness Insight] and [Melee Mastery] also notably improved Lis's abilities as a warrior and Martial Monk; it could be said they were quite practical.
By the way, does using a Magic Wand to hit people count as Melee Damage?
Why do I feel more and more like a Battle Mage?
Lis thought to himself, stroking his chin with satisfaction.
Indeed, Great Mage Gandalf was right, to recreate the glory of a Battle Mage is an unshirkable duty! Explore more stories at novelbuddy
The [Intermediate Disease Resistance] specialty does not need much explanation, it should be a gain from resisting Mei Lulan's Plague Divine Skill.
The milestone [Bright City Great Plague Event] only provided one point of Region Legend Level, but that was to be expected. Such matters involving legendary battles could be controlled by the Kingdom and not widely spread to other areas.
The [Shadow Whisper] skill is quite ordinary, nothing much to say about it.
After Lis's Talent [All-Purpose] made a new breakthrough, his consumption when using various special energies was greatly reduced, making this skill not very meaningful for him.
[Natural Transformation·Bear Form] is a skill Lis is most familiar with; it's a core ability for transformation-focused Druids, who can change into different animal forms to fight and still cast spells after transforming, although they can't benefit from Equipment like Magic Wands and Magic Robes.
Lis wanted to try out this skill, but right now it is grayed out and unusable on Lis's status panel for some reason.
Apart from these gains, Lis also received nearly fifty million Experience Points, which he casually invested into enhancing Skill Levels.
Increasing Profession Level is not much of an upgrade for Lis at this point, and it is also not urgent.
After reaching Gold Rank, every Profession Level increase in later stages would cost nearly one billion Experience Points. Breaking through to Legend is still a long journey for Lis.
On the other hand, as Lis masters more and more Skills, the Experience Points needed to upgrade them become increasingly terrifying.
*Sigh*
My cash crops need to grow faster, where else will I gather so many Experience Points?
Lis thought with an inner monologue, feeling that breaking through to Legend was still a long-term process.
