Chapter 83 New Powers
Grave selected yes and 5 skills started merging….
Ding!!
[New skill Mana Zone created]
Grave was very excited to see this game-changing skill.
[Mana zone (passive): A one-meter invisible mana zone formed all around you. You can perceive all the senses in detail in that one-meter zone from the smell, sight, taste, feel, and sound.
(active): You can use mana to extend the zone size.
Caution: The more you exerted the size of the zone more mana it consumes per sec.
]
Grave smiled, looking at the skill description. This skill was very helpful in fully optimizing the gameplay and it might not be much beneficial for noobs and casual players, but this skill did the wonder in pro hands.
Now he can perceive anything 1 meter before his ordinary sense can tell him. If somebody attacked from behind, he would know about them as they enter the 1-meter mark.
Then the main exciting thing was that this skill also perceives the mana activity inside the player. This would help in predicting many things.
That was not all….
Ding!!!!
[ACHIVEMENT You are the first to make a mana art and create multiple skills using that art. Massive achievement. Calculating reward….]
[ SPECIAL OPPORTUNITY :
MANA Seed: You have a chance to form a mana seed in your heart.
Do You Want to proceed?
(YES/NO)
]
Grave had a frown and a shocked look on his face. This was a tremendous opportunity for him. He knew that having a mana seed will massively increase his mana. This seed would also open the opportunity for mana race evolution for him.
If there was somebody else in his place, he would die from happiness, but not him. Grave knew this was a trap. A trap to force him to the mana path.
Once he got this mana seed, all the other physical evolution paths would close for him. That was a bad thing for him.
Grave did not waste any time and pressed no.
[Warning: This is a one-time opportunity. Are you sure about your decision?]
"Yes," he said to the system.
[... Offer rejected…. Searching for another suitable reward.]
[New skill Mana mode!!!!!!]
[New skill Mana absorption!!!]
[Special Stat addition:
For player Grave to achieve something this impossible and new, Liberty gave you an additional reward.
The special reward of +1 hidden WIS stats every time you level up.
]
Grave had his mouth wide open after he saw the next few messages. He never expected to get those mana creature-exclusive skills here. He opened the skill description.
[Mana mode (active): You can burn mana to enter a special mode.
Special mode add-ons.
20% increase in all basic stats except INT.
10% increase in damage by mana skills.
Cooldown time: 30 mins.
Caution: You would be forced out of the mana mode if your mana went below 10% of your total mana.
Once out of mana mode, you cannot use the mana skill for the next 2 mins.
]
[Mana absorption(active): You can absorb 25% of your total mana inside your body.
Caution: Once mana absorption starts, you cannot move for your position.
In case you paused, you moved from your position. Mana absorption will stop.
Cooldown time: 2mins.
]
Both of these skills came in the high category of powerful skills for mages and other mana-oriented players.
These skills were only slightly weaker that special class skills. These 2 skills only felt like a cherry on the cake in front of the other reward.
+1 WIS for every level up. This was huge. The hidden stats were the stat that a player needs to unlock; even after that, they could not add stat points to them.
There were many hidden stat like Luck, Charm, DEX, and many more.
Grave intention behind all this stupid mana training was to unlock this WISDOM hidden stat that only a high-level magic player could open.
Grave knew that currently; he was the only player below level 50 to open this stat. He opened the Wis description.
[HIDDEN stat: WIS
This stat was related to the control of the pure mana a player has in their body. The more WIS a player has, the more control they have over the mana.]
Now he had the answer that bastard led the mana-related research in his last life. That bastard must have the highest wisdom stats in the entire game in his last life.
This was the reason guilds were crazy for him. They much had known about his WIS stat.
Grave was sure that person must have also chosen the mana seed.
Grave opened his eye and shouted, "Shit, maybe this was the mistake." He could sense that his action now made would mess up the future a lot.
"What mistake are you talking about BOSS?" Vice asked him.
Grave turned to him and asked, "What are you doing here? Did you form your team?"
"Nope. After the incident, we stopped to make any progress."
"What incident.." Grave looked around and had his eyes wide. He saw everyone was looking in his direction. "Shit, what the hell happens?"
"It's Puffpandas," Vice said from the side.
Grave turned to the pandas and then Vice, who was staring at him. "What pandas? They were doing the same shit when we came here. What new with them?"
Vice turned back to look at the pandas. "Shit BOSS, You missed it. The pandas went crazy for a few mins."
Grave looked at him, tilting his head. "Crazy?"
"Yeah, all of them stop doing all the shit and started starting in this direction. I thought you must know something about that. Is this the start of an event or something? You must know something about this, right?"
Grave had a shiver run down his spine. He looked shocked to hear that. He immediately guessed the reason behind Pandas' behavior. They had sensed the pure mana spark.
Grave looked at the pandas and said, "Mmm, so even I was incorrect about the pandas. This is interesting."
Only mana creatures could sense the mana spark, and these stupid pandas that did not use a single magic skill sensed him. This was totally new for him. Even in his last life, no one knew about the power and specialty of pandas. Some Hyenas used them for their training but they did not discover the secret of Pandas.
In his past life, Grave had performed many experiments on monsters to find out about their strength, weakness, and their power. He experimented on many types of Puffpandas but he was unsuccessful in finding anything interesting about them and categorized them as dud monsters, but it felt like he needed to be corrected.
Vice had an excited look on his face. "Boss, was that really a start of an event?"
Grave shook his head in denial. "Nope."
"Shit, it excited me for no reason. Forget it"
Grave ignored him and took out some potions and started drinking them.
Vice looked at him. "Boss, what happened to you?" He now asked him after he had done satisfying his curiosity.
Grave just drank the potion without replying to him and opened his status.

Even though he had assigned 5 stat in INT, his mana did not increase. Those 5 stats were used to create that spark and yeah, he would not get them back.
This was a kind of fair price for the reward he had received.
After finishing drinking the potion, he walked toward the pandas. "Assembled the team in front of the panda paradise. We need to start some fun, baby."
Grave walked to the gate of the Pandas' paradise while other players were whispering among themselves.
"Hey what happened?"
"Dude, nothing happens at all. It was dud."
"Shit, these pandas made us excited for no reason."
"I want to kill them."
Silence…
"How can you talk about hurting these pandas?"
"Yeah, throw him to the pandas."
"Ops, sorry for my comment. I take it back. Pandas are cute. You should not hurt them."
"Bastard, you are not doing justice with your cheap praises. Speak more good things about these cute pandas."
"Yeah, no need to jump on me, girl. I am saying. Hurry to pandas god. We should pray to them."
"mm mmm more."
"They are the secret behind the world piece. they are the peace believer."
Many pandas fans were pressuring a dude to sing praise to these pandas. It was fun to watch.
This palace was one of the special places where if you tried to hunt monsters, many crazy monster lovers would jump to kill you. This was the Pandas fan group. All the crazy people gather here to sing prayers. This panda fan group was even more popular in his past life
In his past life, this panda fan group was even more popular than those famous boobs pro gamer fan groups.
That was the only power the pandas had, or this was the only power they show to the world.
