Chapter 789 - The Comparison
Ery made his way towards a different chamber that looked more like an enclosed room inside a room. If the previous room had a lot of chemicals this room was full of runes written all over its wall. Must be so kind of detection formation of the sort.
The mont he entered, he was imdiately asked to activate his [Day Transformation] inside the chamber. Once again, from behind the reinforced glass, a group of researchers, as well as Bob, could be seen observing; they were ready to test the prowess of this new ability of his.
However, in contrast to the previous tests, in which he was equipped with tal bracelets and a vest only able to asure his physique, his third transformation was fully focused on the spirit force. Hence, a completely different equipnt was required.
The first was a test of control in which Ery was asked to cast and try to control his [Shadow Root] by manipulating them to form various kinds of shapes in a limited amount of ti. After that was done, ca the second test.
The second was a test of power, where he needed to break things apart or cut through things with his spells. As a result, a flurry of destructive spells occurred within the chamber, as Ery cast every offensive spell in his repertoire.
As for the third test, it was to test his special magic resistance. Ery had to endure multiple rounds of ntal attack, so that the researchers would be able to find out the differences between before and after he used his [Day Transformation].
The final was the test of his spirit pool. This was sothing that Ery had shown an interest in seeing.
Before the corruption incident happened, Ery could only hold his form for 30 minutes. Then, as the corruption flowed within his body, that duration was slashed to 12 minutes, after which the urge would erge and threaten to take control.
However, now that this dilemma was resolved, Ery discovered that he could maintain his spirit pool for up to 85 minutes, before he felt completely drained and had to deactivate it.
A massive grin could be seen on Ery's face. Because of this wonderful news, his [Night Transformation] and [Day Transformation] would be his main choice of skills for fighting in the future. Ery couldn't help to think about the best strategy for his future fights.
After a few hours, Ery finally finished all the tests Bob wanted him to go through. Now it was ti for the reveal. Eagerness and expectation shone in his eyes as he accepted the test results Bob had shown him and the man began to explain.
First was the result of his physical test.
Bob showed the data from each stage of Ery's current strength: under normal circumstances, when using the [Immortal Gate], [Fey Transformation] and then [Night Transformation], all in a column.
[Average stat comparison]
[Battle Power 175 - 207 - 252 - 292]
[Strength 155 - 187 - 217 - 328]
[Agility 188 - 220 - 295 - 300]
[Endurance 192 - 222 - 252 - 256]
Looking at the data, Ery's normal state had great endurance and agility, but lacked strength. This was sothing he had known since the academy.
The second row was the one when he used his [Immortal Gate] skill. It was a skill that increases all three stats proportionally, hence all the stats were still the sa only 32 points higher.
The third row was His [Fey Transformation] combined with his [Battle Howl] skill. This boost allowed Ery to reach a physique of a crescent moon magus with most distributed toward agility, which gave Ery a super speed close to that of a Half-Moon magus.
Finally, the last row was the [Night Transformation] data which showed almost 90% of the total 40 battle power boost to strength, a massive leap of 100 points all toward strength. A full upgrade from a crescent magus strength level to pass to a full moon magus with 328 strength. No wonder those drakes didn't stand a chance against him.
The overall data shown ant that throughout the activation of his [Night Transformation], Ery had the necessary power to fight toe-to-toe against a normal Half-Moon magus in terms of strength and agility.
Just short on the endurance stat, which ans that his flesh, stamina and bones did not have the sa level of tolerance. Luckily, his [Undecaying Flesh] provided him with a terrifying healing factor that could make up for the difference.
Bob the frog do the last check up on his body with much satisfaction
"A rank 8 acolyte whose stats is on par with a Half-Moon magus!" Bob exclaid in awe. "How amazing is that?! This is the power of soone who is only rank 8! Amazing!"
Of course, Ery's fantastic stats didn't an he was definitely capable of fighting a bonafide Half-Moon magus. After all, this was just the result of a pure physical test without considering any magic involved.
After Bob finished his explanation of Ery's physical test results, it was finally ti for the latter's magic test result. Bob gave him another piece of data that compared his results before and after using [Day Transform] with the stats of average acolytes.
[Spirit Force - 996]
[Spirit Power - rank 9 mid - Crescent Magus]
[Spirit Control - rank 8 peak - rank 9 mid]
[Spirit Pool - rank 9 peak - rank 9 peak]
Ery's eyes couldn't help but widen when he saw the result. He had not expected the boost he had received would be so significant, to the point that the power of his spell managed to be on par with that of a Crescent-Moon magus.
Even though the transformation didn't have any effect on his Spirit Pool, Ery was still overjoyed when he saw that it helped his lacking control. With a substantial improvent in Spirit Control, Ery was able to cast his spells more efficiently which, in a way, still affected his Spirit Pool beneficially.
"There is also that magik resistanke," Bob added. "This transformation ability of yours is truly an amazing one. The instrunt detekts your body's magik resistanke has basically doubled. It's as if your body was given another layer of defense."
Bob the frog showed the data how his ntal defense was upgraded exponentially: from having weaker, compared to the rank 9 acolytes, to almost as strong as crescent magus ntal defense.
The mixed-blood frog was talking incessantly, raving about the stats. Finally, Ery stopped him and asked about a problem that had confused him - why his gene percentage had dropped lower with his upgrade.
According to the frog, other than his double rank bloodline upgrade, this percentage turned out to be a fairly normal occurrence.
Apparently, it was surprisingly normal for the gene of a higher rank bloodline to have less gene limit for a breakthrough. Seeing Ery looking increasingly confused, Bob then gave the data of the standard percentage of gene essence required to upgrade.
The first row was for the gene bloodline with rank 6 limits like Ery before, the second row was for rank 7 limit like Heorgar and the third row was for rank 8 limit genes, like Ery's now.
Rank 4 - 30% - 20% - 15%
Rank 5 - 50% - 30% - 20%
Rank 6 - 100% - 50% - 30%
Rank 7 - NA - 100% - 50%
Rank 8 - NA - NA - 100%
"There may be so differences with certain genes, but this is the standard," said Bob.
From this data, it would an that Ery only needed 5% more to reach Rank 6 Fey Wolf.
"It doesn't seem like much..." Ery muttered to himself.
However, Bob who heard his mutter shook his head and said, "No, no! That 5% for a rank 8 mythical bloodline like you will not be easy to akhieved. However, fret not, we kertainly kan help you with that."
A wide smile once again graced Ery's face, knowing he could upgrade even further.
