BXBX NOVEL Chapter 115: Chapter115-Health Mana Conversion
To mention, this was a sage-tier high-grade material, truly a treasure beyond measure.
John felt a surge of excitement.
Even if he had no immediate use for "Moon Frost," it could fetch a phenomenal price on the market.
A high-grade material like this, if listed for sale, would surely attract countless powerhouses.
However, John was in no hurry to sell.
Despite being in need of money, he wasn\'t quite at the point of desperation.
Given its rarity and value, such a precious material could be crucial for his future endeavors, making it unwise to sell off hastily.
John\'s attention then shifted to the "Moonwolf Ritual," a rare class scroll.
[Item]: Moonwolf Ritual
[Type]: Class Scroll
[Quality]: Precious
[Description]: Upon using this Heritage Scroll, you will gain the rare class "Moonwolf Priest."
...
[Notice: Your existing "All-Class Magus" class allows you to absorb and acquire some attributes and skills of the "Moonwolf Priest."]
[Would you like to absorb?]
...
Without hesitation, John confirmed the absorption.
Rare class scrolls indeed hold immense value, but the cornerstone of John\'s wealth-building strategy was the continual acquisition of skills.
Given that his "All-Class Magus" could absorb characteristics and skills from other classes, there was no need to act as a middleman by selling the class scroll only to then purchase skill scrolls.
Upon John\'s affirmation of acceptance, the class scroll instantly transformed into a stream of light that surged into his forehead.
Subsequently, a series of notification panels appeared before John.
[You have absorbed the rare class "Moonwolf Priest"!]
[Your attributes have been enhanced. With each level up, you will gain an additional 3 spirit points, and the attributes gained will increase with your level!]
[You have acquired the skill "Lunar Summoning (advanced)"!]
[You have acquired the skill "Silver Moonblade (intermediate)"!]
...
[Lunar Summoning lv30 (MAX)]
[Type]: Advanced Skill (Active)
[Description]: Upon using this skill, you will summon a temporary moon and gain the ability to freely manipulate moonlight for a duration of 30 minutes, consuming 8000 MP.
...
[Silver Moonblade lv30 (MAX)]
[Type]: Intermediate Skill (Active)
[Description]: Upon using this skill, you can condense the power of moonlight to unleash a blade of lunar brilliance, inflicting 180000 magic damage to your target. If cast under the illumination of moonlight, Silver Moonblade will receive an enhancement, reducing its cooldown by 50% and increasing its damage by 150% for a duration of 3 minutes, consuming 5500 MP.
...
After absorbing the Moonwolf Ritual, John found both skills to be quite impressive.
"Lunar Summoning," though merely a supportive skill that inflicts no damage on its target, allows John to summon a moon, enhancing his moonlight-based abilities significantly.
"Silver Moonblade," on the other hand, not only deals substantial damage but also boasts a short cooldown period.
When activated under the moon\'s glow, it dramatically increases in power, making it an exceptionally potent offensive skill.
John nodded in approval; the Moonwolf Ritual had indeed lived up to his expectations.
Following this, he took out the equipment he had obtained in the secret realm.
Demon Magus Robe.
It was a magus robe adorned with black fabric and silver patterns, with unknown silver embellishments embroidered at the cuffs.
Although the material was unrecognizable, the fabric was exquisitely soft and supple, exuding a sense of luxury, nobility, and profound mystery.
As a unique piece of equipment, the Demon Magus Robe\'s attributes would grow with the user\'s level, and being irreplaceable underscored its extraordinary value.
John looked forward to the robe\'s attributes with anticipation.
[Equipment]: Demon Magus Robe
[Type]: Armor
[Level]: None
[Quality]: Unique
[Attributes]: Spirit +15%, Cooldown Time -10%, MP +150%, Mana Recovery Speed Increased by 200%
...
[Skill]: Health Mana Conversion (Active)
[Description]: Upon activation, you can use your own MP to restore your HP or convert your HP into MP at a ratio of 2 HP for 1 MP, with no cooldown time.
The skill description of the Demon Magus Robe immediately caught John\'s attention.
The ability to use MP to recover HP was a game-changer!
With his current HP barely over 40,000 and his MP reaching 180000, employing "Health Mana Conversion" could potentially replenish his HP by at least 140,000, more than quadrupling it!
True to its status as a unique piece of equipment, even though it featured only one skill, it was enough to make countless magi green with envy.
John immediately donned the Demon Magus Robe and then accessed his character panel.
[Class]: All-Class Magus (God-tier)
[HP]: 37268
[MP]: 91920
[Attributes]: Strength 1213, Stamina 1277, Spirit 2541, Speed 488
[Talent]: Divine Favor Tome (SSS-level)
[Skills]: Spring of Soul lv30, Blood Absorption lv30, Mana Recovery lv30...
[Equipments]: Bloodthirsty Blade (God-tier), Blood Mask (Sage-tier), Demon Magus Robe (Unique), Eclipse Staff lv25 (God-tier), Magic Stone Necklace lv25 (Bronze-tier), Traveler Boots lv25 (Iron-tier), Gold Ring lv20 (Silver-tier)...
...
The Demon Magus Robe granted John a 30% increase in his spirit attribute, boosting it directly to 2500 points.
Though currently only at the silver-tier, John\'s attributes had reached the level of a platinum-tier magus.
With Mana Rampage and Mana Burn at his disposal, he now stood a significant chance in a head-on confrontation with a platinum-tier awakener, a stark contrast to the previous encounter with the assassin where he had to use himself as bait for a surprise attack.
John took a deep breath and looked out the window to find the sky a dim grey, with the first light of dawn breaking in the east.
Unbeknownst to him, the night had passed.
The heavy scent of blood on his body made him frown; the prolonged battle in the secret realm had left him covered in blood and grime.
Previously unnoticed, it now became uncomfortably overpowering.
Foregoing sleep, John hurried to the bathroom for a thorough wash.
Ten minutes later, he dried his damp hair.
Gazing at the mirror, he saw a handsome young man staring back with a satisfied smile.
The battles and training had carved his once youthful features into a visage of rugged maturity, and his tall, lean body boasted muscles that were both well-defined and aesthetically pleasing.
Indulging in a moment of vanity, John struck a few poses before heading back to his bedroom.
Lying down on his creaky wooden bed, he quickly fell into a deep sleep.
By the time John woke up again, it was the time of dusk, with the setting sun painting the clouds a vibrant red.
He had long grown accustomed to this nocturnal lifestyle.
Stretching languidly, John got up, brushed his teeth, showered, and prepared a meal, all within an hour, completing his morning routine efficiently.
The completion of the secret realm had been quicker than he anticipated, and he planned to head to the capital the next day to get a head start on the assessment preparations.
Thus, he had a lot to attend to today.
After eating, John thoroughly cleaned his room, took another shower, locked his door, and walked down the stairs.
Casting one last glance at the room and balcony he had lived in for several years, he walked away from the old residential area without looking back.
Unless something unexpected happened, he might never return to this place again.
Or perhaps, by the time he returned, he would have made a name for himself across the Federal, renowned and celebrated.
John took a cab to the All Seasons Trade Association and sold all the equipment and materials he didn\'t need.
In the end, he amassed 22 million federal coins, pushing his assets over the one hundred million mark.
This was primarily due to a valuable assassin skill scroll he had sold; otherwise, the profits wouldn\'t have been as significant.
Initially, John considered purchasing some equipment, but after checking the prices, he ultimately decided to keep a tight grip on his wallet.
By the time John emerged, the sky had darkened to pitch black.
After grabbing some food, he took a cab to the Dark Forest Bar.
Pushing open the soundproof door, he was greeted by the familiar scent and pulsating music that filled the air.
The blue and green lights flickered incessantly, illuminating the figures of scantily clad women as they moved their sultry bodies on the dance floor.
This familiar scene eased the tension in John\'s mind, bringing an involuntary smile to his face.
Under the dim lights, the girls who noticed him felt their heart rates quicken.
Casually, John patted the shapely behinds of a few pretty girls who approached to strike up a conversation.
Amidst their giggles and playful scolding, he made his way up to the second floor of the bar.
In the bar on the second floor, melodious music played, a significant contrast to the louder atmosphere of the ground level.
Under the dim lighting, many patrons sat, engaged in quiet conversation over drinks.
John entered, drawing the gaze of those present.
Several members of Hidden Stars raised their glasses in greeting.
They all held a fond regard for this talented colleague.
