Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons

Laid the map flat on the table.

Then placed the three rune keys neatly in a triangular formation on the map.

"Come on, everyone, infuse your Magic Power into the rune keys. This will determine if you qualify to enter the hidden Dungeon."

Upon hearing Kane's words, everyone extended their palms and placed them on the nearest rune key.

Then everyone's Magic Power surged into the keys.

As Magic Power was infused, the runes on the keys began to emit a dazzling light.

Before long, seemingly having been filled with Magic Power, the rune keys rejected Kane and the others' Magic Power.

The three rune fragments floated up, emitting a dazzling light, slowly rotating in the air.

Then they projected a beam of light onto a spot on the map, leaving a mark there.

It seemed that the Magic Power was depleted, and the three rune keys fell onto the map with a ding.

Watching the end of the ritual, Kane carefully put the three keys into his Space Equipment.

Then he and his teammates observed the mark on the map.

"This place is actually not far from my home."

Longbei looked at the mark on the map, saying excitedly.

The mark on the map, upon closer inspection, was about a hundred kilometers away from Furnace Castle, not very far.

"Just in time, the Dwarven Beer Festival is coming up, we can stay at my place for a while before exploring, since such an opportunity is rare."

Indeed, the Dwarven Beer Festival is considered a grand festival in this world.

Having been in this otherworld for so long, I have never participated in a large-scale festival; it would be a shame to miss out.

Kane thought for a moment, and asked the others: "What do you think? Is Longbei's proposal feasible?"

Meizike nodded, while Lilulu didn't care, anywhere with fun and excitement would do.

"No problem, I've never participated in a beer festival before, just heard about it, this is the perfect chance." Kreya said.

Seeing everyone had no objections, Kane nodded: "Alright, since there are no objections, it's decided. We'll set out tomorrow for Longbei's hometown, Furnace Castle. You'll have to lead the way this time."

"Hahaha, of course, no problem, leave it to me."

Knowing his companions were willing to attend the festival in his hometown, the already social and lively Longbei couldn't be happier.

At this time, there was a knock on the room door.

"Your dinner order has arrived."

When the door opened, the white-furred werewolf outside saw only a blue Magic Palm open the door and take the tray from his hand, then close the door.

Leaving the werewolf outside totally baffled.

The local specialty meals here were all high-calorie foods.

Fried, steamed, grilled with strong liquor.

Unknowingly, they ended up staying cooped up in the room the whole day.

Almost made Kane forget the most important thing.

Took out the previously appraised trace amounts of silver materials from the Space Equipment, as well as a medium-sized silver material.

Stacked them all together and took a transparent Magic Stone from the [Book of Adventure], placing it on top of the material pile.

Watching this scene, Lilulu flew over with a green fruit in hand, watching this scene with keen interest while munching.

After everyone's eaten and drank their fill, the pile of materials was also depleted.

This silver Magic Stone would be used by Kane to upgrade his Skills.

However, Kane had many copper Skills that needed upgrading, making it difficult to decide.

[Magic Power Reserve] was a priority, but after acquiring Dragon Bloodline, it was no longer as important.

[Spider Nest Weaver], an early skill that followed Kane from his weakest times, was a strong control skill, but at silver level, the strength and speed of the Spider Silk couldn't exert much effect.

[Critical Strike] was also a single-target burst skill, but after getting [Death Gaze], its priority decreased.

After much contemplation, Kane decided to upgrade [Spider Nest Weaver] since it would bring the greatest benefit to the team.

Took out another copper Magic Stone from Space Equipment, and fetched the [Spider Nest Weaver] Skill Stone from the Skill Warehouse.

Placed the three items into the Extraction Array.

[Upgrade this Skill from Copper → Silver?]

[Yes] [No]

Yes

[Array in operation, please wait...]

[Upgrade complete]

With the circulation of the array, after a flash of brilliance.

A brand new silver metal piece appeared in Kane's hand.

Looking at the spider pattern on the metal piece, the upgraded [Spider Nest Weaver] was indeed something to look forward to.

Begin examining the attributes of the Skill Stone.

[Name: Master Weaver]

[Category: Active Skills]

[Color: Silver]

[Explanation: Spend Magic Power/Physical Strength to shoot out Spider Silk out of nowhere; the speed and strength of the shot spider silk depend on the energy spent. You can perfectly control the Spider Silk, weaving it into the shape you desire.]

[Description: In the dark Spider Nest, the weaver is an indispensable member of this Empire; they are always the pinnacle of Spider Silk art in the Empire, weaving the veins of continuity for the Empire, and among them, the peak of art is called the Master Weaver.]

Compared to copper-level Skills, it removed the firing port settings and could shoot out of nowhere, meaning it was no longer limited to firing only two strands at a time.

It could also enhance the speed and strength of the shot Spider Silk.

As for the perfect control of the Spider Silk, it was hard to discern just from the description, it required actual practice to see exactly how it would perform.

Picking up the silver metal piece, opened the [Book of Adventure], placing it in his vacant Skill Grid.

Since Kane was already very proficient with this Skill, the knowledge that emerged from the silver level was swiftly absorbed by him.

Then came a large amount of more advanced knowledge, which didn't burden Kane's mind too much given his past usage experience, and soon it was all absorbed.

Soon Kane opened his eyes, and suddenly a strand of Spider Silk shot out of thin air from the air beside him, quickly shooting towards the room's window.

None of those present could see it clearly before the Spider Silk had already adhered to the window.

Then, under Kane's control, the Spider Silk began tying knots in mid-air, weaving its own web in the center.

Kane could feel that previously, when the Spider Silk was shot out, he could barely control its cohesion and dissipation; now he could almost control it fully.

Kreya and the others looked at Kane's Spider Silk; this skill was what left the deepest impression on them about Kane, but after reaching the silver level, they hadn't seen Kane use it for a long time, and now he brought it forth again.

Judging by Kane's actions just now, it must be that the skill has been upgraded again, and now they could see Kane using the Spider Silk again.
