Chapter 177 New skill?
?Lathel frowned and asked: "How strong?"
"Probably... rank B." Cauldron replied.
Hearing that, Lathel breathed a sigh of relief. If it was rank A, he would definitely throw away this strange dagger, but since it was rank B, it would probably be fine.
If this is an item for the main character, its rank must be extremely high enough to help the main character fight and survive.
Lathel put the dagger in his storage space. He felt that he would probably never find the rest of the dagger to turn it into a complete weapon.
Another thing was that Lathel still had an item that could help him evolve any talent.
However, he didn't know if he should use this item right now or save it?
In any case, he had no need to evolve his talent right now. Furthermore, he had not yet fully utilised the talents he possessed, so Lathel continued to keep this random talent evolution card.
"Ah! Speaking of weapons..." Lathel muttered: "I still don't have any good weapons."
He frowned, and thought about weapons he could use.
"Do you still need weapons? I feel like you just need to use your fists." Cauldron said contemptuously.
Lathel heard that and smiled: "Hehehe... Cauldron, have you absorbed all of that energy crystal?"
"Ack! You... What are you planning to do?" Cauldron now felt worried because he thought Lathel was definitely planning something.
"Cauldron, you can't watch me fight without a weapon in hand, right?"
Cauldron: "..."
"That's why..." Lathel smiled and said: "You can be my weapon, is that okay?"
"Are you dreaming! Do you know who I am? Cauldron shouted angrily.
"Of course I know, you are... hm... Cauldron."
Cauldron: "..."
"I feel like you are insulting me. You use me to cook, you use me as a shield, now you use me as a weapon. Do you think anyone can use me like you?"
Lathel then sighed and said: "It's also because of your versatility. You can defend, you can attack, you can also cook, you have so many abilities that I think i should fully use you, right?"
Cauldron felt that what Lathel said was quite reasonable, but he still felt that something was not right. But Cauldron could not find anything unreasonable in Lathel's words.
"But..."
"Wait!" Lathel interrupted Cauldron's words: "Hear me out first. Of course I won't let you work for free , I'll also find a way to find more energy crystals for you, okay?"
Cauldron sighed and said: "The problem is not that I need your energy crystal. The main problem is that i need a lot of energy to function."
"You also see my abilities. I am very strong, very heavy, can change size, etc. However, to do those things, I also need a huge reserve of energy."
Hearing that, Lathel nodded: "Don't worry, I understand. Anyway, to help you function well, I will try to find energy crystals for you to absorb."
"Besides... if you need anything, I can help you."
Cauldron sighed and said: "For the time being, I don't need anything. To be more precise... you are too weak, and have not yet reached the level where you can help me."
"Ah! Then when I become stronger, I will help you." Lathel said comfortably.
He knows that he is still very weak right now, so helping Cauldron is impossible.
Lathel also knew that Cauldron was an extremely terrible existence in ancient times, and of course, perhaps Cauldron also had something that needed his help.
But he is currently too weak to help Cauldron. However, Lathel believes that one day he can be stronger and help Cauldron.
"It seems... magical energy and Chakra are not the same, I can't use magical energy like Chakra."
He lay on the grass, relaxing and thining about how he could do what a Shinobi could do.
Although those skills are only basic Shinobi skills, they are very effective in combat both in the Shinobi world and this world.
Just think of a scenario where he enters an environment full of water, he would be able to stand on the water, while others sink.
At that time, even though his fighting strength is not as good as others, he will still easily win.
If he doesn't win, he can easily escape, ensuring his own safety.
Therefore, this is a skill that he needs to learn.
"Ahhh!" Lathel shouted tiredly: "I wish my legs were like magnets, it would be so wonderful, then... wait... magnets... magnetisim..."
Lathel seemed to realise something, he muttered: "It seems... I can create a type of magnetism using the element of lightning."
He immediately stood up, then wrapped the lightning element around his feet. Next, using his feet as the axis, the lightning element formed countless rings around his feet.
Of course, these electric rings cannot be seen with the naked eye, they are just magnetic fields formed by the lightning.
The test naturally failed.
But Lathel did not give up, he continued to experiment. He kept testing, kept failing, then tested again, then failed again.
After more than 12 hours of testing, Lathel felt that electromagnets were not the optimal solution.
Electromagnets are very good, but they only work with a few types of materials.
Lathel again stood before the wall blocking the path to basic Shinobi skills.
He sighed and continued to think: "Electromagnets can't have the same effect as Chakra, so... what should I do now?"
"Wait! Electromagnets, like poles repel each other, different poles attract each other. So..."
Lathel stood up again and began using the Lightning element to sense the energy flow inside the tree.
In fact, every living creature in existence has a flow of energy within them.
That flow of energy comes from extremely tiny particles, and those tiny particles also carry a small amount of electricity which connect them together.
Lathel felt the energy for a long time, then began to create a blast of energy with the elemental lightning under his feet.
This energy flow accumulated under the soles of his feet, forming a paper-thin membrane.
Lathel swung his legs, stepping on the tree trunk.
"Success!"
His legs were actually stuck to the tree trunk.
"It turns out this is the key to solving this problem. Just create an energy layer with particles carrying opposite charges to the tree trunk, then it will actively attract each other."
Lathel took another step, now he was actually standing on a tree trunk as if he were standing on the ground.
But as soon as he took another step, he immediately fell on the ground.
Lathel frowned, he felt that controlling this electricity was too difficult.
You must know that creating things of extremely small size is an extremely difficult job.
In this case, Lathel also had the same problem. Creating a membrane with extremely small particles with opposite charges is already an extremely difficult problem.
Keeping it alive and matching the stem's charge is even more difficult.
Just like that, although the energy required to do this is not large, the difficulty and ability to concentrate are extremely high.
If Lathel didn't pay attention for even a moment, the connection would disappear, and failure would be normal.
