Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 198: Power Up

Shortly after Xu Feng managed to understand the severity of the circumstances, they were interrupted by Jeff, who had finished analyzing the area.

”If my deduction is correct, the Ironhide Behemoth should be residing around those caves,” Jeff explained, pointing at a certain distance with distinctive jagged rocks around it.

From the pointing, it seemed as if the distance wasnʼt too long, but the truth was, it would take them at least 20 minutes to navigate there.

”We should start moving then,” Carmen subsequently said, clearly trying to change the topic of discussion.

Recalling her very first death was caused by players, especially from a certain guild was displeasing.

Not to mention, she still vividly remembered their haughty tone and statement directed at her when she refused to join under those harsh restrictions.

Killing her once wasnʼt enough, they even forced others to isolate her.

Part of the reason why she was kicked out from the team she joined afterward was due to the Reaver Guildʼs threat as well.

Although her terrible combat played a factor, the main factor was the threat.

It was because everyone became afraid of being acquainted with her after learning the news that she decided to move to Riverwood Town— where the Reaver Guildʼs presence was non-existent.

”Thereʼs no need to rush yet.” Xu Feng suddenly said, smiling at Carmen without any change of attitude. He could tell Carmen was somewhat worried he might distanced from her, but she couldnʼt be any more wrong.

Contrary to distance himself from her, Xu Feng wanted to get even closer to her. In the past timeline, the Reaver Guild never offended Carmen, so she never once targeted them unless some ignorant fools decided to block her path.

However, in this timeline, the Reaver Guild freaking offended Carmen— of all the people they could have chosen.

This solidified his goal of wanting Carmen even more in his future guild.

Not to mention, thanks to Carmenʼs generosity, Xu Feng could finally do something that he had been trying to do the entire time since accepting the insurgent mission.

”Let me consume this EXP Potion first.” He explained, reassuring Carmen that it was unrelated to their earlier conversation.

Nodding, Carmen told Jeff to guard the surroundings temporarily.

ʼUgh, more time wasted.ʼ As unwilling as he was, Jeff smiled amicably and went to guarding mode.

ʼI guess I will try to improve my Elemental Command.ʼ Carmen thought to herself, sneaking a glance at Xu Feng, who was now focused in a corner.

While that was happening, Xu Feng opened up the bottle and began drinking every last bit of the potion.

System: You have consumed an EXP Potion!

As soon as he consumed it, a system prompt appeared, followed by a surge of experience points increasing.

His experience points that were pathetically low started to rise tremendously, and within a blink of an eye, Xu Feng leveled up to 5.

However, the experience points didnʼt stop rising as he reached level 6, only stopping midway at level 6.

Aside from the obvious increase in attributes, Xu Feng felt his body lighter, almost as if an invisible pressure that was imposing on him had lessened.

Naturally, he understood the reason behind it, but that was a concern for another time.

Rather, he could now accomplish something that had been delayed for a long time. ʼI can finally activate these Ragged Scrolls.ʼ

Taking a glance at his inventory, Xu Feng took out three Ragged Scrolls.

The Tier 1 Scroll, Scroll of Shadowcraft, and the Tier 2 Scrolls, Scroll of Forbidden Arts and Scroll of Divine Blessing.

These three Ragged Scrolls that he had taken as his assistance for the insurgent, but he was unable to use them, given the level requirement was 5.

It was why he was overly frustrated by the debuff at the time. The feeling was the same as seeing a plate of delicious food in front of you, but you are forbidden to eat any of them.

Sometime later, Xu Feng activated all the ragged scrolls at once. As soon as that happened, three system prompts appeared, informing him of the skills learned.

Looking at the three skills, Xu Feng was satisfied with his decent luck in learning some useful and not some terrible.

After all, the Ragged Scrolls contained random skills of the category, but that wasnʼt the reason why Ragged Scrolls are important.

The system might not have said anything, but Xu Feng had an affinity to learn and comprehend similar skills in the same category from now on.

ʼHeh, but this is just the start of my power-up.ʼ Xu Feng snickered inwardly, opening his skill tree and glancing at the original dark skill slot turning gray, meaning it was eligible to be unlocked.

Without hesitation, Xu Feng chose to unlock the [Revive] skill.

—

Skill Name: Revive

Description: Resurrects an ally with 50% of their maximum health.

Cooldown: 300 seconds

However, that wasnʼt the end of it as Xu Feng received another system prompt—something he had anticipated.

System: Your character possesses a Baptism Effect. Would you like to use one of your upgrade slots to enhance [Revive] to its superior version, [Divine Resurrection]?

Divine Resurrection: Resurrects an ally with 100% of their maximum health or allows self-resurrection with 50% of maximum health.
