Arsan's information has changed again. New data has appeared in her panel.
| [Mutation Level: Level 5/10 (open for details)] [Mutation Ability: Underwater Transformation (currently 50%). After transforming, the boost limit is 50%.] [Additional Ability: Close Combat Technique (Primary), Proficiency 1/20, 1 point of proficiency boosts 2 combat power. (The transformation also increases the power of the skill.)] [Combat Power: 15 (Real Time)] |
"Well, a skill?"
The book was given to Arsan by "Love man" from the Gold Foot Merchant. Raine hadn't taken it seriously, but who would have thought the system would recognize this skill?
And it can increase combat power! There are 20 levels in total, and after Arsan has learned them all, she will have 40 combat points! And if she use it underwater after transforming, she'd get more.
At Arsan's current mutation level, a 50% boost would be 60 combat points! With Arsan's own 15 points, that's 75 points, which equaled seven wooden spikes or 750 little Booty...
And as Arsan's mutation level increases, she'd get more!
That "Love man" surprisingly had added so much combat power to Raine!
This significant discovery led Raine to think of a possibility.
Arsan was a biological mutant, and she could acquire skills through the special book. What about Avril? She was a support mutant, who should be more dependent on "skills," as her ability was more like a skill.
So far, Avril's mutation level and combat power have not changed. Not even her food intake had increased, so how to level her up?
"If this is a skill, then with my twenty years of experience in the game, to level up Avril, I should..." Raine kept staring at the word "proficiency." Those three words felt so familiar to him.
"That's right, improving proficiency!"
With this in mind, Raine immediately called Avril over to him, who was eating grilled fish.
"Avril, you should use your ability more during this time."
"Huh? Why? We are not fighting right now." Avril said as she nibbled the fish, "Captain, I'm about to give up. This time I don't think I've gotten any stronger myself."
"Would you please give up the grilled fish!" Raine said.
Avril put down the grilled fish in embarrassment and hid it behind her.
"Avril, don't give up. In any case, you definitely have a chance to get stronger!" Raine knew Avril's level was 1/10 in the panel. Why did the system show it that if she couldn't upgrade?
"We just haven't found a way yet." Raine said excitedly, "Avril, do as I say and practice more every day."
"And who do I practice with?"
"With Arsan, or... whoever, with White, with Armin, Terry, the little Booty, just practice more anyway."
Avril cocked her head half-heartedly, "Well, I'll try more. Captain, can I go back now? The crab they're baking should be good."
Raine was helpless with this foodie. He remembered that someone was going to avenge her family!
........................
The next day, everyone was still busy. Armin drove the boat to fish during the day and waited to collect it for a few hours. Not much harvest, but they could get something to eat more or less.
Terry would catch crabs or dig up roots to try if he could find any wildlife to help others to get some nutrition.
Arsan has been practicing her fighting skills hard every day, both on land and in the sea, and occasionally catching some seafood.
On the other hand, Avril has been using her skills, and none of the crew members have escaped her claws.
Something strange happened when she experimented with Terry.
"Terry, what's wrong with your leg?"
Terry smiled and said, "It's probably due to the wind and cold for years. Usually, it's not a big deal. I just can't exert too much. Mostly, I walked like a normal person."
Avril smiled, "OK, then I'll try to affect your cells."
"No problem, come on, I've felt it before, not much feeling."
Avril gripped her fists and closed her eyes tightly. She was using her powers. Terry gradually felt some heat in his body, and his whole body ability quickly raised, both his muscles' strength and the nerves' responsiveness.
"I think I can beat two people with one now!" Terry said excitedly.
At this point, he suddenly felt his right leg, the one inconvenienced, getting hotter and hotter...
"Avril, my leg... you, what are you doing!"
Avril said with closed eyes, "Terry, I'm trying to heal your leg. Try to relax!"
The time lasted for 10 seconds, and soon Avril was a little stretched. She dropped her arms helplessly, look at Terry, and shook her head, "It was too short. It didn't work. My powers are useless."
However, Terry's eyes widened as he touched his leg and said in shock, "Avril, no, I do feel better than before!"
Avril jerked her head up, and her eyes widened, "Really?"
"For real!" Terry was excited, too, "Avril, your powers are useful. I think you can cure my leg with a few more tries. I can feel it!"
Avril's expression was less frustrated at this point. This experiment had given her confidence in herself.
Over the next few days, Avril worked specifically on Terry's leg, and the feeling in Terry's leg became more and more active.
Ten days later, Terry's leg had fully recovered!
Arsan and Armin hugged Terry excitedly, "Dad, it's great. Your leg was healed!"
Terry was also thrilled, he never expected his leg to go back to normal, and now this result made him ecstatic.
"Avril, thank you so much!"
Avril smiled, "Terry, we're family. I'm glad I could help you."
Raine watched the scene from a distance and opened Avril's information panel.
Avril's level hadn't changed, but Terry's combat power had gone from 1.5 to 2!
Of course, it wasn't just a matter of combat power; Terry was the most experienced crew member on the ship. His agility in his activities meant far more to Raine than the extra 0.5 combat power.
"Except that Avril's level hasn't been raised..." Raine was also a little shaken. He wasn't sure if his suspicions were right.
But Avril was practicing harder and harder after this.
Two months later, this was almost the coldest time of the year.
Arsan's fighting skills had been upgraded to level 2, but Avril was still at level 1.
Raine had been considering whether to speak to Avril about perhaps changing to another method of leveling up. At that very moment, Avril rushed to Raine excitedly, jumping off the rock in one go.
"Captain, I feel like I have leveled up!" Avril ran to the bow, her voice trembling a little with excitement.
"Upgraded?" Raine couldn't believe his ears. Even he was giving up, and Avril had upgraded?
How difficulty!
