Adventure: My Skills Evolve Infinitely

At the entrance alone, there were three to four hundred Goblins! And among them were quite a few tall Mutated Goblins.

’It doesn’t matter, though. In fact, the more the better.’

Lin Mo raised his hand, and the Fire Element instantly converged in his palm.

[Blast Flame Fireball]!

The effect of his Elemental Affinity was immediately apparent. His Casting Speed was incredibly fast. In the blink of an eye, the Fireball shot out, smashing into a dense cluster of Goblins.

"BOOM—"

A thunderous explosion echoed as the darkness ahead was instantly illuminated by the fiery blast.

[Blast Flame Fireball] Skill Level +17

Even as he cast one spell, Lin Mo was already gathering Magic for the next.

Soon, another [Blast Flame Fireball] shot out, blowing the Goblins it struck to pieces. Limbs and blood flew everywhere.

With his current power as a Level 4 Mage, dealing with these Ordinary Goblins was far too easy.

It was the same even for the Mutated Goblins. As long as they were caught in the blast of a [Blast Flame Fireball], they were instantly killed.

In no time at all, Lin Mo had taken out over a hundred Goblins.

This allowed Lin Mo to accumulate enough Skill Level for [Blast Flame Fireball] to level up.

"Skill [Blast Flame Fireball] Level 5 (180/180) has leveled up!"

"Current Skill: [Blast Flame Fireball] Level 6 (Max)"

"Gained attribute points: Magic Power +2, Spirit +1!"

"Automatically evolved into a New Skill—Flame Linked Stars!"

"Skill Comprehended: [Flame Linked Stars]! Magic Power +3!"

[Flame Linked Stars] Level 1 (0/10): Condenses the Fire Element into a series of Fireballs that attack the target, dealing Fire Element damage and exploding. Applies a burn effect to enemies hit.

’How should I put it... It’s a pseudo-AOE skill, so its role is quite similar to [Blast Flame Fireball].’

’The Fireballs’ direction can be controlled, so if I control them properly and cast them in a spread, it can indeed become an AOE skill.’

’Likewise, for single targets, I can fire all the Fireballs in one direction. Or, with more precise control, I could even use the Fireballs to surround an enemy. In that case, its single-target damage wouldn’t be weak at all.’

’All in all, it’s a skill that requires a high degree of control and has a wide range of applications.’

’The only problem is that, like [Sword Storing and Continuous Slash], it lacks a bit of power when it comes to breaking through the defenses of opponents at or above my own strength.’

In addition to the New Skill, Lin Mo’s Magic Power also increased by another 5 points, reaching 51.

"Promotion conditions met. Professional Mage (Level 4) has been promoted—Current Profession: Professional Mage (Level 5)."

"Received Professional Attribute Amplification: Spirit +3, Magic Power +3!"

With this, his Mage Profession had finally officially surpassed his Warrior Profession, becoming Lin Mo’s highest-Level Profession to date.

’And this time, the total Attribute Amplification was 6 points, 3 of which went to Spirit!’

With the base value plus the amplification, Lin Mo’s Spiritual Attribute was now 24 points. It wasn’t that high compared to his other Attributes, but with his Peaceful Spirit Bracelet—which increased his Spirit recovery speed and reduced its strain—he at least no longer had to worry too much about the mental toll of using Magic.

’When you get a New Skill, of course you have to use it. There’s still an Evolutionary Direction for [Flame Linked Stars] that I haven’t picked, but I plan to check out the original version’s effects first. That’ll make the decision easier later.’

So, he immediately unleashed a [Flame Linked Stars].

Several Fireballs shot out in succession, each one looking very similar to the previous [Blast Flame Fireball].

Under Lin Mo’s control, the Fireballs landed scattered throughout the Goblin Army.

Instantly, a series of explosions erupted.

"BOOM—! BOOM—!"

"..."

[Flame Linked Stars] Skill Level +48

’It’s that powerful?’

Lin Mo himself was stunned for a moment, but on second thought, it made sense. For one, his Magic Power was already very high—he was a genuine Level 5 Mage.

For another, he possessed an impressive Fire Element Affinity, which further amplified the power of his Magic.

That single [Flame Linked Stars], combined with the Goblins he’d killed earlier, took out more than half of the attacking Goblins, causing the rest to break rank and flee.

Normally, this would be the time to give chase.

But right now, Lin Mo had something more important to do...

"Shefilya, I’m entrusting Feney and Ali to you. If any more Goblins show up, I’ll leave them for you to handle."

Shefilya frowned, about to say something, but then she had a second thought. She glanced at the empty night sky and nodded.

"Alright."

Lin Mo, meanwhile, headed directly for the mine’s main tunnel. If his guess was correct, then they should have already started moving the ore...
