The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 508

Chapter 508 Visualize Your Desires

Without a monster spawn nearby, Rae's night watch was depressingly uneventful.

But uneventful was good for Karl, as it gave him time to study his skills and theorize ways to combine them that might make a whole new ability.

Trollish Regeneration and Limited Invulnerability had combined to make [Void Body]. The skill basically combined the best of both, with a bit more power, while keeping them as a passive skill.

That wasn't really what Karl was hoping for. It was an absolutely incredible skill, but he should be able to combine them into an ability that was better than just having both skills active, which he was doing anyhow.

None of the other skills seemed all that compatible, though. Karl considered his options, and while it seemed like he might be able to combine some of his attacks skills, his imagination was failing him on how to combine them to make them better than skill plus skill combined.

There was no way that a skill so difficult to obtain could be limited to this degree. It wasn't available on the offensive or defensive skill trees, so there had to be more to it.

Perhaps the point was to try to make incompatible skills work together to do something new and innovative. _{fɾēewebnσveℓ.com}

[Maybe you just need to think about how to make something from each of us work together? You can visualize skills, so just imagine all of us working together on one spell.] Remi offered.

She was actually the one with the most talent and success creating new skills. She had made two different types of Totems so far, and she had learned a wider variety of skills than anyone else.

[Just make the snake's magic less evil and go from there.] Hawk suggested.

Karl laughed at the bird's loyalty to his element, and focused on the one shared skill from Remi's advancement that he hadn't tried yet.

[Cyclone] created a vortex of water, similar to the defensive cyclone that that Naga Shaman boss had used.

Hawk would want that to be less evil. So, Karl focused on converting the element to be fire. A flaming tornado was more acceptable to Hawk, even if it wasn't better than the base Cyclone.

[SOUP!] Cara shouted, startling them all.

[What in the world are you talking about?] Karl asked. It wasn't even close to lunchtime, and the drake leg that Hawk was roasting her wasn't ready yet.

[You know, soup! Just keep putting stuff in the pot until it's good. You have a flaming Cyclone, but if you added the Earth Barrier from Rae and a dash of Nullify...]

The Void Badger trailed off to let Karl finish the thought.

Karl thought about it, and that might be good, but not quite right. However, if he added Shatter to cause physical hits to inflict additional vibration damage, then made the Earth Shield swirl in the Flaming Cyclone, with a touch of [Nullify] to help it break defences, they might be on to something.

It was a great concept, in theory. Except for the fact that Karl couldn't use Nullify.

In practice, trying to add Earth Shield to the cyclone was a pain, and he was unable to use Rae's [Boulder Toss] to just add small stones.

However, if he added [Shred], the swirling vortex became positively hateful.

But it still needed a bit more, and [Bone Crusher] did a fine job of replacing Nullify in this situation, as it bypassed armour.

It wouldn't break their defences, but having a portion of the damage bypass them was a great start.

Karl spent most of the afternoon trying to make that work together.

He could form it in his mind, but it was unstable, and missing something.

Chain Lightning, that was what it was missing. The Lightning would arc around it, carrying Shred and Bone Crusher with it, while the repetitive nature of the spell would help stabilize the mess of magic elements.
