Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2705: 1486: A Sudden Revelation (Part 2)
Previously on Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong...
Sheila's words echoed once more in Leo Ray's mind, pressing on with her explanation.
"Sheila, regarding the direct boost for a half-step Tier 7 powerhouse, is it possible for you to push them briefly into the actual Demigod level?"
Leo Ray wasted no time and posed the question anew.
Leo Ray knew full well that elevating the pink-hooded figure to Tier 7 would give their side a real Demigod powerhouse.
"Apologies, Master, but right now, that's beyond me because my own power sits at half-step Tier 7, so the highest I can boost to matches my level."
Sheila's voice carried a hint of sheepishness as she replied.
"That's fine; even without a true Demigod, your addition will provide a huge morale lift!"
Leo Ray's tone brimmed with thrill once more as he went on: "So, your power outstrips that of Little Jie and Xiao Jing, the Tier 6 Stone Spirits?"
"Indeed, Master. In the start, my abilities were pretty much on par with theirs, just standard Tier 6."
Sheila answered openly: "The jump to half-step Tier 7 came from my power's development."
"How did that development happen, exactly?"
Leo Ray's voice dripped with intrigue as he followed up.
"To answer Master, you must be aware that as the [God’s Stone] holder's power grows—meaning yours—the Stone Spirits get some boosts too, though those gains are quite modest and won't push to higher tiers, not even advanced half-step levels."
Sheila's deferential tone filled Leo Ray's thoughts: "For growth like mine, there's just one path: honing power activation through real battles. As control over that skill improves, a Stone Spirit's lasting strength climbs sharply."
"Got it. Let's proceed to the following phase."
Leo Ray jumped straight in, inquiring about the extra perks that could tag along with the power boost.
"In response to Master, my secret skills can include three unique perks."
Sheila dove right into detailing after catching Leo Ray's query.
From Sheila's rundown, Leo Ray swiftly picked out three extra perks.
The first: an effect for restoring energy.
The second: an effect to cut down on energy use.
The third: an effect to trim spell-casting duration.
Attaching these three perks would surely amp up the endurance in fights and the speed of spell deployment for their powerhouses!
"Master, everything's done just as you wished. For the secret technique's name, how about 'Lord’s Blessing'?"
Sheila's voice sparkled with eagerness as she suggested to Leo Ray.
"Agreed."
Leo Ray gave a pleased nod and set about building the next secret technique.
Sheila's talent in yet another area was, of course, blessings.
Leo Ray learned more through Sheila's overview.
Unlike the boost that sticks close to her position, the blessing works even at a distance from Sheila, provided you're inside the effect zone.
For the blessing's reach, Leo Ray opted for the full extent, nearly matching the boost's scope, and there were no caps on targets—any within range, be it Human Clan or other races, could benefit.
"Master, my blessings break into five components, all centered on gear enhancements: 'Boost weapon physical power', 'Boost armor physical power', 'Boost weapon’s anti-magic property' (like strengthening during breaches of the Absolute Defense Barrier), 'Boost armor’s anti-magic defense', and 'Boost the pace of war boots'."
"Master has the option to tweak these blessing strengths, but ramping one up dilutes others, or you could drop some entirely."
Sheila inclined her head toward Leo Ray and kept explaining: "On top of that, three additional perks are choosable, like extending blessing time, amplifying blessing impacts, and widening the blessing area."
After taking in Sheila's breakdown, Leo Ray boldly evened out the power across all five blessings, added the top three perks, and wrapped up the second secret technique in no time.
This setup would offer all-around blessings to their leaders, fitting for all kinds of battle scenarios without question.
"We'll go with 'Lord’s Blessing' for the second secret technique."
Leo Ray gave a subtle nod, his gaze alight with vigor.
"Your will be done, Master!"
Sheila saluted with a hand to her chest, her pale features glowing with zeal as she proclaimed: "With that, the contract is sealed completely! I am now fully the Master's!"
As Sheila's declaration landed, the system prompt chimed in.
[Congratulations, ‘God’s Stone νμ’ (Quality: Legend) has forged a servant-master Truth contract with you, turning into your personal asset!]
Hearing the well-known tone, Leo Ray pulled up Sheila’s info panel.
[Name: God’s Stone νμ] (Activated)
[Quality: Legend]
[Divine Power: 100%]
[Owner: Leo Ray]
[Constituting Secret Skill One: Lord’s Blessing (Enhancing single or group target, range Giant City Level, with special effects of energy recovery, reduced energy consumption, and shortened spell casting time)]
[Constituting Secret Technique Two: Lord’s Blessing (Blessing single or group target, range Giant City Level, with special effects of increased blessing duration, enhanced blessing effects, and expanded blessing coverage)]
[Note: Uncovered in a cavern's depths while dormant by Rainforest Fortress Alliance head Loris, then handed to you, it stirred early in your care due to your frequent Power of Divine Grace use. She's adept at enhancements, a bold and sharp powerhouse who offers profound Divine Revelation, harboring a hidden history.]
Shutting the panel, Leo Ray's eyes flared with intensity.
Now, after Little Jie and Xiao Jing, I've claimed my third [God’s Stone]!
"Master, ready to face the demons head-on?"
Sheila's captivating gaze burned with resolve as she spoke gravely to Leo Ray: "Starting now, I'll stake it all for Master!"
"We stand and fall together."
Leo Ray nodded at Sheila, drawing in a steady breath: "Fine, let's begin."
Sheila gave a resolute nod at Leo Ray's command.
Golden radiance then enveloped her, and Leo Ray felt the environment shift instinctively; in an instant, he found himself back in the vast hall shrouded in pitch black, assaulted by demonic howls and savage claw swipes.
"Sheila, boost me—we need to escape this place first!"
Leo Ray nodded promptly to the fresh human-shaped Stone Spirit without delay.
"At your service, Master!"
With Sheila's response, Leo Ray's presence exploded outward, morphing into a violet flash that nimbly evaded the deadly claw lunging at him.
Seeing this, the pink-hooded figure, Frank, and the rest couldn't hide their shock, eyes bulging wide.
To them, Leo Ray had been wrapped in golden glow just briefly before his power spiked, dodging the demon's horrifying assault—it was utterly unbelievable!
Moments later, Leo Ray materialized beside their comrades, his resolute tone booming: "All of you, the moment for our retaliation has come."
