Chapter 166 166 Epic Skill



"Hey guys, I...huh!! did they leave" Matthew said as he looked around, he left Alex and his friends in his shop and went to the other room to mix up some potions and now they were all gone.

Alex opened his eyes and he couldn't see a thing, there was no difference between leaving his eyes opened or closed, the only thing he could hear was a constant dripping sound.

A multi-colored light shone from behind him and he quickly turned around, he saw a spinning wheel floating in the air.

'Am I supposed to spin that' Alex mumbled as he looked around, without thinking much about it he walked towards the spinning wheel then a figure appeared.

"Aaron!!" Alex shouted as he raised his fists upward immediately.

"You are here, so she didn't kill you, you are very lucky," Aaron said.

"What are you talking about, she tried to kill me but I escaped"

"What!! you what? you escaped...how did you escape?' Aaron asked.

"That's not important, what's that spin?" Alex asked.

"Well she can't kill you now that you are here, but try your best to survive, it's pretty harsh," Aaron said.

"It's just like Nova Online, nothing I haven't faced before, I just need to get stronger and sealed the demon Lord again...wait, how can the Demon Lord be sealed?"

"That's for the chosen ones to decide, let's get this over with, I hope you get a low-quality item," Aaron said with an expressionless face.

"Every player gets a chance at a free spin, each of the spaces contains a prize, so go ahead and spin," Aaron said.

Alex looked at the spin, it was split into 30 spaces and all the spaces were empty, none was drawn or written on any of the spaces.

"There's nothing there," Alex said.

"Don't worry, just spin" Aaron said.

Alex walked towards the spin, he was still on guard as he wasn't sure what Aaron would do to him if he got close.

"I'm not going to harm you, more like I can't harm you, since you are already here, killing you is the same as killing a human, but maybe killing you won't take away my powers," Aaron said.

"You are bluffing, you can't really kill me" Alex spoke, even though he wasn't sure if Aaron could kill you or not, he just wanted to sound confident.

"Well you are right, I don't need to kill you, try to survive, and a little tip, demons are stronger at night so you should be careful," Aaron said.

"Do you know what demons look like, we have no idea what we are going after or how to stop it, the Elder Gods must like to eat h humans dying"

"The Elder Gods do things for a reason, they would never do things that would bring about the extinction of humans so hurry up and choose, or you'll lose all the good stuff," Aaron said with a smile this time.

"Okay here I go" Alex mumbled as he spin the wheel with all the strength he could muster.

"What are my chances of getting a legendary item?" Alex asked.

"Mythical 10%, Legendary 30%, Epic 50%, Rare 70%, Uncommon 30%, Ordinary 10%"

"So all the Mythical weapons in Nova Online actually exist?"

"Yes from the old days, weapons created with magic, weapons created from legendary creatures, those are the Mythical and legendary weapons in Nova Online, but the strongest of all was lost thousands of years ago"

"The strongest weapon, what's the name?" Alex asked.

"The demon blade, a blade that could cut through anything, even light and darkness, a blade that could kill any legendary creatures, but it's gone without a trace" Aaron shook his head.

"Demon blade, can you tell me what it looks like?" Alex asked with his eyes wide open, he had the demon blade in his inventory but he wasn't sure if it was the one he had cause the one he had was of ordinary quality.

"It looks like a katana, a long bright sword brimming with magical energy, do you intend to find it?" Aaron asked.

'A long sword, what was I thinking, I thought I had the demon blade, I guess the one I have is just named the demon blade...but it absorbs blood, I'm thinking too much about it, oh it's coming to a stop'

The wheel in front of Alex was finally coming to a stop and now that it was slowing down he became anxious, this time his life was at stake, if he receives a useless prize, it would reduce his chances of survival in this new world.

"Ohh I forgot to tell you something, the prize might not be a weapon," Aaron said.

"What do you mean?" Alex asked almost immediately.

"It contains anything ranging from Mythical weapons to light orbs, or something totally useless like a kitchen knife"

"Huh!!" Alex shouted and the wheel came to a stop.

[Epic skill received: Inspect]

The notification appeared in front of Alex and he looked at the screen in surprise, he was expecting a weapon even though it was an epic weapon, but he got a skill instead, at least it was an epic skill so it'll be pretty useful.

"Inspect... that's a pretty good skill, I hope you survive long enough to leave the Bronze Continent" Aaron laughed.

"Inspect, that sounds like a useless skill, how come it's Epic quality, all players of Nova Online that see the HP of beasts and stuff, then what's the use of the skill!!" Alex shouted angrily.

"When Nova Online was a game all the players could see the HP of beasts, but it's not a game anymore and the HP and level of beasts are hidden, you can only see it with your inspect skill and it has no cooldown time only when you want to inspect deeper"

"Inspect deeper, what does that mean?" Alex asked.

"You can see everything about your opponent, his HP, level, agility, strength, stamina, vitality, skill, magic powers, everything with your inspect skill but it has a cooldown of 1 hour"

"1 hour, but you said it didn't have a cool down"

"Viewing normal stats like HP and level doesn't have a cool down, but viewing all the stats of your opponent has a cooldown of 1 hour, do you understand now?"

"Yes, and why are you helping me?" Alex asked.

"I'm not helping you and besides this isn't even the real me, I'm currently talking to 100,000 thousand other players apart from you"

"Did anyone receive a Mythical item?" Alex asked curiously.

eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ "Not yet, but someone did receive a Mythical skill, but don't worry, yours is good cause you'll be able to see if your opponent is stronger than you, so you can flee," Aaron said.

"Thanks for your advice, can I leave now," Alex said, the moment he blinked his eyes he was back at the potion shop, none of his friends were here so he was the first one back.

Alex looked around the shop and Mathew was still in his other room probably mixing potions, Alex knocked on the door and immediately the door was opened.

"You are back...wait how did you get in, I locked the door," Mathew said.

"Uhmmm...are you sure you locked the door, when I checked it wasn't locked so I just opened it," Alex said chuckling weirdly.

"Really, my bad, so what can I help you with?"

"I need tons of health potions, more than 100," Alex said.

"Huh!! are you going on a dangerous quest or are you buying for your friends, I don't have that many"

"How many do you have?" Alex asked.

"10 in total, but if you need more maybe you can find more moonlight plants for me, this time I'll reward you handsomely, and you'll get 30 health potions for free," Mathew said with a smile.

"We went through lots of trouble finding them the other time, and this time is a little different as our lives are now at stake, so I'll have to decline the offer," Alex said.

"How about 50 health potions and 1000 for each leave, but only if you bring more than 50 leaves"
