The isolation room of the Korabo Corps Fortress is located on the third underground level of the Legion Castle.
Drinking and causing a commotion, unauthorized use of controlled medicine, illegal reading of controlled books, leaving one’s post without permission…
anyone who violates the order of the fortress will be locked up here.
Narrow pigeon cages, hard floors, and foul-smelling thatched pits are standard features of these rooms.
There are no beds or windows.
The floor serves as the bed, and the flat, elongated window on the door serves as the window.
The corridor light that enters through the flat window is the only source of illumination.
From the moment Noland Lee was brought into the isolation room until Captain Grett locked the metal door, he had not spoken a word, silently enduring the terrible air and the cramped room.
In fact, ever since his Energy Points soared to over three thousand, Noland Imew his turning point had come.
Reflecting on it now, his mindset had begun to change from the moment his Energy Points exploded, giving him the confidence to say, “You can’t rely on me.”
Through the door, Captain Grett glanced at the silent Noland, and knocking on the door outside, he said:
“Jarvis, the captain toldto tell you that she will try her best to get you out. I don’t know why she values you so much, but you’d better behave. The captain orderedto lock you up in the isolation room, not to serve your food and drink.”
Despite his words, Grett still arranged for a delicious dinner for Noland.
Elaborately prepared tomato beef soup, crisp and delicious vegetable shreds, accompanied by sweet and fragrant milk bread slices.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe sumptuous dinner could be described as envy-inducing.
The soldiers locked in the isolation room, upon smelling the enticing aroma, began pounding on their doors, asking the guards why the newly arrived soldier would receive such treatment.
It took several guards to shout them down and restore order.
Noland paid no heed to the commotion.
He sat on the ground, leisurely eating the delicious food on the tray.
After tonight, it would be a bit difficult to enjoy another meal like this one. At least until he left the Suffering Borderland, tender and smooth stewed beef brisket would be considered a luxury.
Noland took a sip of hot soup and called up his Personal Panel.
After being delayed by a series of events for so long, he finally had the chance to upgrade his skills.
Within the next 8 to 10 hours, a disaster would definitely occur in the Korabo Corps Fortress.
Noland firmly believed this.
The tfrcorresponds to 10 pm to 12 am.
Dark and windy nights, chaotic fortresses, were the perfect tto break free from the Legion’s control entirely.
The “Fear Spell” needed to be prioritized for upgrading.
It is a very useful control skill.
If used well, it can not only control the Legion soldiers but also make them attract the Undead, achieving two goals at once.
Noland operated through his thoughts and spent sEnergy Points.
[System Message: The level of “Fear Spell” has been upgraded from Level 1 to Level 5]
[The effect of “Fear Spell” has been enhanced!]
[The duration of “Fear Spell” has been increased by 10 seconds. It is now 15 seconds.]
[The number of targets you can apply “Fear Spell” on has increased by 2. You can now cast “Fear Spell” on three targets simultaneously.]
“Hmm, not bad. It can be considered a small-scale group control skill. I just don’t know if there will be any light and shadow effects when casting “Fear Spell”…l hope not.”
Noland nodded in satisfaction and spent another handful of Energy Points.
This the upgraded “Magic Shield,” also to level 5.
As for why he did not continue upgrading after level 5…
That is simply because the cost-effectiveness had decreased.
Upgrading from level 1 to level 2 requires 10 Points of Energy Value.
From level 2 to level 3 needs 20 Points of Energy Value, an increase of 10 points.
By this logic, the upgrade consumption is equal to the level multiplied by 10.
From level 4 to level 5, it requires 1+0 points.
From level 5 to level 6, it needs 50 points.
The cost-effectiveness drops dramatically.
Noland is not yet rich enough to ignore upgrade consumption, so he can only carefully calculate and raise his skills to level 5 before stopping.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe operated through his thoughts and eventually upgraded “Fear Spell,” “Enslavement of Deceased,” ‘Magic Shield,” and the concealed trump card, “Death Finger, ” to level 5.
As for “Soul Bribery” and the ritual array for summoning large numbers of Undead Troops, Noland did not upgrade them.
Although “Soul Bribery” is only at level 1, it is sufficient.
This is because it is a rather awkward skill.
Powerful Undead can instantly kill Noland, leaving him no chance to use “Soul Bribery.”
Weak Undead cannot defeat Noland, so there is no need for bribery. Therefore, Noland does not plan to upgrade it.
Summoning Undead with a ritual array, this kind of strategic skill would not be needed in the short term. so there is no need to lingrade it-
Only skills like “Enslavement of Deceased” and “Magic Shield” truly affect individual combat power.
After upgrading “Enslavement of Deceased,” the number of controlled targets has increased.
Noland can now control five Lost Souls at the stime.
“Magic Shield” enhances the shield’s thickness.
Upon reaching level 5, 0.1 points of Soul Strength can be converted into 15 points of shield strength.
The trump card skill “Death Finger” has also been upgraded.
Its skill consumption has been reduced, dropping from 100 points of Soul Strength and Energy Points to 90 points, a total decrease of 10 points.
Each level upgrade reduces the consumption by 2 points.
Honestly, this upgrade effect was a bit beyond Noland’s expectations.
If it weren’t for the severe shrinkage of Energy Points, he would have wanted to level up “Death Finger” directly to level 50 and see if he could cast the skill without consuming any points..
