Investing 5 Soul Points earned Su Bai the passive skill Demon Worm Devourer.
After checking the new skill's description, Su Bai summoned the Worm Demon Spear again and stabbed it into a Frost Wolf corpse.
In the next moment, the corpse shriveled and blackened at a rapid rate, as if thrown into a pool of acid, leaving only a pile of gray ash scattered on the ground.
After multiple upgrades, except for a tiny loss, the Worm Demon Spear's devouring ability had far surpassed what Su Bai could do in his first form!
Finally came the skill extraction from this evolution.
Unlike before, this time the system offered two choices:
he could choose to extract skills in his ant form to further boost his ant-form combat ability, or choose to extract skills in Heavy Knight Form to enhance combat power in that form.
With the emergence of the second form, Su Bai would inevitably have to invest more effort in skill selection in the future.
Currently, the skills he has can be used in both forms, but as his strength grows, some powerful skills might only be usable in one form.
This time, Su Bai chose skills for the Heavy Knight Form.
Armor Break: Passive Skill. Your attacks have a chance to penetrate enemy defenses, dealing Armor Break damage that ignores defense.
Charge: Active Skill. Consumes half stamina; moves at agility * 2 speed across a distance, quickly appearing before an enemy. Maximum charge distance: 20 meters.
Thrust: Active Skill. Consumes half stamina; releases a sharp spear strike dealing strength * 2 physical damage to enemies directly ahead.
Scan Technique: Active Skill. Consumes 50 Mana; emits a beam that identifies enemy identity, level, and health points.
One passive skill and three active skills.
All of Armor Break, Charge, and Thrust could further enhance Su Bai's power.
However, after reviewing all four skills, Su Bai unhesitatingly chose the fourth skill: Scan Technique!
For players in the game, Scan Technique is a passive skill permanently active from the start. Every monster's identity, level, and HP are basic information to them.
Probably no player would choose Scan Technique when facing these four options.
But Su Bai was different.
From a Dim Level ant to now, he had almost blindly stumbled through. Without the ability to check enemy identity, level, and HP, he could only sense them vaguely by their aura.
Unable to inspect equipment, he could only roughly judge by the energy fluctuations emitted.
No...
In other words, a Scan Technique skill changed Su Bai from a blind man in the game to a normal person!
It gave him part of the player's advantage when facing monsters!
He could gain power-boosting skills later, but this unique player auxiliary skill might only appear once!
If missed, Su Bai didn't know if he would ever get such a skill again.
With Su Bai's choice, the options vanished, and a new support-type active skill appeared in his skill bar.
Looking at his second panel, he decisively invested the last Soul Point into Scan Technique.
With 1 Soul Point invested, Scan Technique evolved into a new skill—Exploration Technique!
Exploration Technique: Active Skill. Consumes 100 Mana; emits a beam that identifies enemy identity, level, HP, and Mana. Has a chance to pierce enemy attributes and a small chance to reveal enemy skills.
Upgraded Exploration Technique was more powerful than Scan Technique.
Not only could it reveal identity, level, HP, and Mana, but it also had a chance to break through enemy attributes and skills.
Thus, when facing unfamiliar monsters, Su Bai could seize the upper hand.
Closing his attribute panel, Su Bai glanced at the Little Worker Ant staring blankly at him and tentatively used Exploration Technique.
Immediately, he saw detailed data of the Little Worker Ant:
Identity: Worker Ant
Race: Ant
Level: 10
Attributes: Strength 100, Agility 70, Constitution 100, Spirit 80
Skills: Rapid Healing, Malicious Perception
Perhaps because the gap between Little Worker Ant's power and his was large, or maybe he was lucky, a single use of Exploration Technique revealed a wealth of information.
At the same time, a clear health bar appeared above the Little Worker Ant's head, showing its HP.
Frankly, through his own attribute panel, Su Bai could see more reliable data, but that was because the Little Worker Ant was his Vassal.
The information now obtained was identified through Exploration Technique.
The difference was significant.
"No wonder this is the first god skill of players. The feeling of obtaining information beforehand is just great."
Unable to help himself, Su Bai sighed and turned his attention to the fresh corpses dragged into the cave by the Little Worker Ant.
They were already at the edge of Gloomy Jungle, next to a new region. In game terms, a higher-level map.
"Swamp or lake?"
Looking at the blue-skinned fish-scaled humanoid corpse in the cave, Su Bai muttered to himself.
