Chapter 146: Chapter 94: Gary Smith wants to be a tentacle monster? Mouse God is cheating (asking for subscriptions, monthly tickets)
The abilities of Mousie included two high-level, four super-level, and one legendary.
Amongst them, the two high-level abilities could be ruled out directly. At first, he was attracted by "Soul Cloud", which was a sort of flying skill. However, after observing Mousie’s lackluster flying speed, Gary Smith quickly abandoned the idea.
As for the "Avatar of Soul", that was an even greater impossibility. He didn’t possess Mousie’s indestructible soul traits. If he divided his soul and subsequently suffered heavy damage, he would be a vegetable at best or completely annihilate his soul at worst.
Besides, he preferred to maintain a single cohesive identity. There was only one of him, and he would not permit even a semblance of another one to exist.
As for the super-tier skills, "The Thousand Faces of Soul" could only be transformed with the aid of Mousie. Besides, he could only choose one ability, without the Thousand-faced Soul Tree, he couldn’t transform into various powerful demons. For him, the skill was akin to chicken ribs – worthless undertakings that took up unnecessary time and resources.
The "Thousand-Faced Soul Tree" operated under the same principle. These two skills were interdependent, their potential wasn’t inferior to the Legendary Level. On the contrary, it was more than sufficient.
Furthermore, he didn’t want a tree to grow on his head or in his shadow. Already barely managing the upkeep of one, the spirits required for maintenance were astronomical. Having to take care of two trees would just slow down outright his advancement speed. It was definitely not suited to him, a poor player who relied mostly on freeloading.
What mattered in soldiers was the quality not the quantity. A single Death God Tree was enough to crush countless Ghost Trees.
As for the skill "Touch of the Thousand Faces", Gary Smith was indeed partly tempted. Yet, it was not because he aimed at becoming a Richwoman with a happy hand or fundamental joy in wanting to transform into a tentacle monster with numerous copies of himself...
"Ahem..."
As an upright individual, he would never entertain such an idea. At most, he thought it was fascinating, to a certain extent. The potential of this limb replacement ability was vast. By controlling different attributes of the monster’s power, one could transform into a superman. Yet, the downside was also significant; extensive grafting with the bodies of transcendent monsters could pollute one’s spiritual power. Even he, with his Taboo position, was susceptible to physical abnormality becoming a monster.
So, this skill was also bypassed.
"Shadow Master," which encompassed a vast capability of controlling shadow energy, was, in Gary Smith’s perspective, the most value for money amongst his skills. Sadly, humans couldn’t compare with Pet Beasts in terms of spiritual power, so there would definitely be a decline in its power.
If his intention was just survival, he was already equipped with "Etherealization," a space-based and dreamland-based Super-tier Skill. There was no need for an additional redundant skill.
Thus, though it seemed like a multiple-choice question, it was essentially a single selection.
The Legendary Skill Divine Protection of Fate.
Because Mousie couldn’t be constantly by his side. Once it went out to battle or carry out specific missions, he would be left with a vulnerable period when Scrying or surveillance could be used against him.
Most crucially, despite being merely a Silver Rank and not venturing into Mother River, whether it was transitioning his spiritual power during Golden Peak or promoting to Morning Star, he was required to enter Mother River to conduct the ceremony.
These events were all inevitable!
Thus, he had to acquire the power to obstruct and repel the Taboo Curse Mark.
Otherwise, it would be highly likely that once he entered, he would be ambushed by a few ancient figures camping in the newbie village, a no-respawn zone.
If he met his demise, there would be no one to even mourn for him as he was an orphan.
That was quite a hellish joke.
Hence, Gary Smith directly consolidated the "Protector of Destiny". An invisible power of fate intertwined deep within his soul. Forming a mysterious silver scale mark that impressed directly onto the Taboo Curse Mark.
There was no reaction from the mysterious flower that the Taboo Curse Mark had turned into. Its eerie aura vanished in an instant as if the invisible pressure surrounding Gary had dissipated.
Crack Crack!
However, at the next moment, a crack appeared suddenly on the Fate Scale. The stems of the Taboo Curse Mark flower extended out, tangling and wrapping the scale.
"Even a Legendary Level Skill can’t suppress it?"
Gary Smith’s eyes narrowed, his expression grave.
That was merely the curse formed by the piles of memories from witnessing the "Beast". It wasn’t a curse cast actively by the Taboo Sun, but it could suppress a Legendary Level Skill.
How powerful was the actual Taboo Existence then?
Would a skill beyond the Legendary Level be able to resist an entity of this caliber?
Gary pondered in his heart, but he wasn’t overly disappointed.
Although the Taboo Curse Mark was still emitting an eerie, attractive force, compared with before, it was only one-thousandth of its former power. It had turned from a tiger into a paper tiger.
Having experienced a significant reduction, even though it was not completely suppressed, there would be no problem entering the Mother River.
In addition to that, he gained an unexpected bonus. The Nightmare’s Mark had been fully blocked by the "Protector of Destiny" skill.
The "Taboo Curse Mark" and "Nightmare’s Mark" may look similar. However, the latter was only lured by the former’s fragrance. It had attracted a Nightmare, paid a tremendous price, and long-distance marked Gary in the Dream Realm.
This was equivalent to a locator that intensified nightmares.
In the vast and chaotic Dream Realm, where there was no concept of space or direction, a plethora of dreamlands could cause interference with senses. Lost coordinates were equivalent to the nightmare losing its navigation capability.
It was like trying to find someone through an internet connection. If the connection was physically cut-off from the other end, even a top-tier hacker could only stare blankly at the screen, unable to find the person in real life.
A serious problem which had been worrying Gary for a long time had been unexpectedly solved.
"Did I solve it just like that..."
Gary Smith murmured, feeling a surreal sensation. Although he had predicted that the "Protector of Destiny" could shield the marking effect of the Nightmare’s Mark, he didn’t hold much hope after seeing the Fate Scale being counteracted.
