When Raine focused his attention on the newly fused ’Wild Boar Shaman’ icon, he suddenly froze for a mont, then burst into a happy laugh.
"This is pretty impressive...."
"Twice in a row, almost completely retaining the bloodline talents, with no disappearance."
In front of Raine’s eyes appeared the ’Wild Boar Shaman Bloodline’, surprisingly with five bloodline talents and eight spell-like abilities.
Among them, the bloodline talents can basically be seen as a summary of the previous ’High-tier Boarman Warrior’ and ’Wild Boar Earth Diviner’.
Except for Earth Affinity being upgraded from lv2 to lv3, the other four, naly Sensitive Sll, Brute Force, Thick Hide, and Heavy Weapon Mastery, remained unchanged.
Earth Affinity lv3, Effect: When casting any Earth Magic, power is increased by 30%; when learning any Earth Magic, learning speed is increased by 60%.
And among the eight spell-like abilities, the Taunt, Battle Roar, and Savage Charge of the ’High-tier Boarman Warrior’ and the Thorn Shield, Earth Divination Skill, and Lightning Arrow of the ’Wild Boar Earth Diviner’ were also retained.
In addition to these six, two more were added.
The previously worried situation did not happen, which is why Raine felt delighted.
"Does this an that the system’s fusion will retain the original monster talents and spell-like abilities?"
"The sample size is too small, having only fused twice, so this cannot yet be confird."
After thinking for a while, Raine slightly shook his head and focused his attention on the first of the two new spell-like abilities - ’Earth Binding Spell’.
Earth Binding Spell lv1, Effect: Earth energy will entangle a target you specify; if the target is in the air, it will persist until they fall to the ground; if the target is on the ground, it will continuously bind for 8 seconds.
(Note: The binding ti is inversely proportional to the target’s strength.)
(Note: If there is a related totem, the Earth Binding Spell can be transford into Earth-Binding Totem, affecting all hostile targets within a 5-ter radius of the totem’s location.)
Upon seeing the description of the ’Earth Binding Spell’, Raine couldn’t help recalling the Spell List below Level 5 that he’d seen in Dorne City, which included a record of this spell.
If he rembered correctly, the Earth Binding Spell should be a Second Level Spell.
However, his version of the Earth Binding Spell was sowhat unique, it even had an enhanced version - ’Earth-Binding Totem’.
"The simple Earth Binding Spell is a single-target binding, but if there is a related totem, it can be cast as a group binding."
After reading it twice, Raine first felt delighted, then focused his gaze on the words ’related totem’.
"It’s normal for a Shaman to require a totem."
"But the problem is, I don’t have one, plus the system only ntions ’related totem’, which makes it a bit difficult to find."
But Raine wasn’t too disappointed, as being able to gain an additional single-target controlling spell was already pretty good.
As for the totem, it can be sought slowly in the future.
"Right! There must be one place, the Wild Boar People’s lair in the Valley of Dead Water."
Raine’s eyes lit up as he imdiately thought of a place.
"However, going to the Wild Boar People’s lair just for a totem? The risk doesn’t seem worth it... I’ll have to think it over carefully." Raine frowned in thought.
"Wait, maybe Black Iron Level or even more advanced Adventurers have already taken the totem as loot and sold it to the guild?"
"If that’s the case, having beco a mber of the Classes, I should be eligible to advance to Black Iron Level Adventurer and go to the second floor."
"Yes, when I return to Mill Town tomorrow, I’ll check with the guild first."
For a mont, Raine’s mind was flooded with thoughts.
Monts later, Raine shifted his gaze to the second newly added spell-like ability ’Earth Regeneration’.
Earth Regeneration lv1, Effect: Harness the power of the earth to heal and continuously restore the injuries of yourself or a friendly target, lasting for 15 seconds.
(Note: If there is a related totem, Earth Regeneration can be transford into Regeneration Totem, affecting all friendly targets within a 5-ter radius of the totem’s location.)
This is a healing spell, using the power of the earth for continuous healing.
"With this, my single combat ability is even stronger."
"Maybe, I can take on the Frost Blade Leopard one-on-one?" Raine couldn’t help but recall the scene on the edge of the Lankote Snowfield where he, Elise, and Laisa struggled against the Frost Blade Leopard.
With his current strength, he should be able to challenge it one-on-one, right?
In terms of Ice Resistance, he and the Frost Blade Leopard are fairly matched, but the Frost Blade Leopard mainly relies on lee and frost damage. If frost damage has no effect on him, it would an a reduction of at least 30% of its combat strength.
In terms of physical fitness, he has upgraded with a career change, acquiring the High-tier Boarman Warrior bloodline, improving by another half-level.
Even if the Frost Blade Leopard wanted to escape, it wouldn’t be easy.
Although the Ice Ring Spell couldn’t do anything against its high Ice Resistance, the Earth Binding Spell could.
"Huh, similar to the Earth Binding Spell, both can be enhanced to a group spell?"
"But, it also requires a related totem?"
"I just wonder if the totem for this spell and the Earth Binding Spell is the sa kind of totem?" Raine wondered aloud.
After thinking about it, Raine replaced the previous ’Wild Boar Warrior’ icon with the newly fused ’Wild Boar Shaman’ icon. His physique grew even more robust, with many complex three-dinsional symbols representing various spells appearing in his mind.
At this mont, the icons in Raine’s four bloodline slots were: ’Counter-attacking Ice Spirit’, ’Wild Boar Shaman’, ’Gray Dwarves’, and ’Giant Vampire Bat Leader’.
...
When Raine returned to the campfire, the dinner feast continued to be lively.
The process he just went through to fuse his bloodline seed to take a lot of ti, but in reality, it only took six or seven minutes.
A few minutes later.
Raine, who was eating freshly cooked blood sausage, suddenly looked up towards the south of the village.
On the road leading to the south of the village, a few people dressed as adventurers were walking towards them, each with a surprised expression, and even a bit dazed, as if they had seen sothing they shouldn’t have seen.
"Regina, go and ask them what’s going on?" Not wanting to spoil the al after the incident with Scarface, Raine turned to Regina beside him.
"Yes, Captain."
"Huh? It’s Oli from the Iron Shield Squad." Regina turned her head and recognized familiar faces.
As an ’old-tir’ with thirty-eight combat experiences, Regina was relatively familiar with low-level demons and also quite knowledgeable about the situation with low-level adventurers in Mill Town.
There were quite a few adventurers who had been around for a long ti and had decent strength but hadn’t advanced to Black Iron Level, and Regina was familiar with many of them, even to the point of being on friendly terms.
"You know them?"
"Yes, Captain, Oli from ’Iron Shield’ has always had a good reputation in the first-floor hall of the association." Regina hesitated for a mont, not daring to make any guarantees but offered the general impression others had of Oli.
"Hmm, then invite them to join us for so food." Raine nodded, "Fighting pig at is quite rare."
"Uh... alright, Captain." Regina imdiately got up and went to greet them.

anwhile
The night was serene, the moonlight cold and clear.
At the entrance of the large goblin nest that Raine had previously cleared, a figure suddenly appeared.
Nightti in the forest is far more dangerous than during the day, and few adventurer squads would operate at night, let alone alone, but the danger is relative.
For soone with a Classes Level of 5 and who specialized in concealing their presence, the forest around Mill Town was not much different from their own backyard.
Zoel moved with silent steps into the nest.
But after walking a short distance, he suddenly paused, bending down and lightly probing the ground with his fingers, as if sensing sothing.
’So damp?’
’There hasn’t been any rain here during the day or night today, and a normal goblin nest shouldn’t be this damp.’
’It’s not urine, no distinctive stench, it’s just water...’
’And it’s too clean, there’s no corpses from the entrance to here.’
Zoel was a bit puzzled.
He had tracked all the way here, but it seed that this large goblin nest had already been cleared.
But from the entrance to here, there was no fresh blood on the rock walls, nor were there any bodies.
One should know that goblins are filthy and stink, poorly equipped, and no adventurer would waste ti moving or burying them. After killing them, they would just cut off their ears and leave the bodies exposed in the wild.
Although he was curious, Zoel didn’t stop his pace, continuing forward like a ghost, silent and invisible.
Suddenly, he stopped.
He was staring blankly at the hall in the deepest part of the cave.
What t his eyes were countless goblin corpses, arranged in a radial pattern, as if they were fleeing from a volcanic eruption at the center.
And the bear goblin’s corpse at the very center shocked Zoel slightly.
Zoel’s expression turned serious as he quickly walked over to examine it closely.
He first used his foot to turn over a common goblin corpse at the outskirts and imdiately noticed sothing unusual about the way they died.
’So soft? Not stiff at all.’
Because normally killed goblins’ bodies would quickly harden and stiffen.
’No obvious wounds, just slight depressions on the skin.’
’All have strange smiles on their faces, wait, this is frostbite!’
Zoel continued to examine several goblin corpses, and soon, based on various signs and his rich experience, he determined the cause of death was freezing to death.
Finally, he reached the bear goblin corpse with a challenge level of one.
’Blunt weapon wound.’
After a mont, Zoel considered carefully.
’It was probably a rare ice spell that killed them, and it seems to be an area-of-effect spell.’
’Definitely not a First Level Spell like Ice Blade Spell. The Ice Blade would certainly leave clear cuts on a demon like a goblin.’
’The Snow Rainstorm of the Third Level Spell is also impossible; a Third Level Spell ans a mage at Classes Level 5 could wield it, and even with rare lowering spell usage, at least Classes Level 3 is required.’
’Based on previous intelligence, it reasonably follows that the opponent most likely just advanced and is at Classes Level 1.’
At this point, Zoel crossed his arms, murmuring, "There’s only one truth — the Second Level Spell ’Snilloc’s Snowball Swarm’!"
