Level Up in Earth Evolution

Chapter 117: Receiving Ability?

"Spirit Contract? What's that, and aren't you here to change my class? Why is the inheritance now?" Li Wei asked with a suspicious gaze.

This mannequin first said he could help him change his class, which is impossible unless some god helps him with this, and now it's talking about inheritance.

Sensing his doubt and suspicion, the entity decided to explain.

"Boy, when I decided to create the function to give my inheritance, I also added a condition to change the class of anyone if they want to."

"However, in that case, they will not receive my inheritance, as it will be useless to give someone who will change their class because they are afraid of difficulties ahead," the entity spoke with an explanation, making Li Wei stunned.

'So, this Mr. Mannequin was testing me,' he thought, looking at the entity with a frown.

The more things got complicated, the more difficulties he would face in the future.

He really wanted to reject him, but he was waiting for information about inheritance.

If it's a good thing, then he wouldn't mind accepting the quest he gives, of course as long as it's within his reach and not life-threatening.

Looking at Li Wei, who was waiting for an explanation, the entity spoke again.

"Boy, even though you are unwilling to do some hard work, you are not afraid of it. That's why I decided to give you my inheritance."

"Not to mention there will be no one like you in this world," the entity remarked, making Li Wei impatient.

"Hey, Mr. Mannequin, can you fast forward and tell me about the inheritance or the special ability that you are giving to me?" Li Wei asked, not wanting to hear more nonsense.

The entity became speechless and seemed to sigh at him.

"Okay, I will explain about the Spiritual Contract. As the name suggests, you can form a contract with spirits, and it's very different from the connection."

"If you form a connection with spirits, you will only gain some basic access to their powers."

"However, if you form a contract with spirits, there will be many benefits, such as you can exceed the limit and will be able to use attributes without any backlash or losing control," the entity explained, making Li Wei shocked.

However, soon his shock calmed down when he heard the next words.

"Boy, don't be too happy. There are many restrictions if you want to exceed the limits, such as how much you can exceed will depend on the spirit you contracted."

"Also, the state will only last for a few minutes to a few hours, and after that, all of your attributes will reset to certain amount except for luck, spirit, and knowledge attributes," the entity stated, making Li Wei stunned.

'Damn, here comes one more money-spending thing,' Li Wei cursed in his mind and looked at him, wanting to know what kind of quest he will give.

"Boy, I am giving you this inheritance; it's a special ability and not a skill, so you have to discover its benefits yourself by trying it out."

"Lastly, I don't need anything from you," the entity said, making Li Wei dumbfounded.

"Are you sure you don't need anything from me?" Li Wei asked with doubt.

"Yes, I am sure. I don't need anything, and it seems my time is coming. So here, take my inheritance of special ability," the entity spoke and waved his hands, making a virtual dark violet orb appear with some ancient seals on it.

Before Li Wei could even think about what it is, the entity arrived in front of him and pushed the orb into his heart in a blink of eye.

"Now the ability is already inside you, and I embedded a non-harming contract in it, so you don't need to worry about me playing tricks. But when the ability will merge, you will feel a little pain. Oh, wait a minute, I forgot to say one thing."

"Before you can begin contracting spirits, you need to see them first. So good luck with that and farewell boy," the entity spoke as if smirking at him and disappeared, turning into mana strings again.

"Fuck, bastard!!!" Li Wei shouted as he experienced the sudden excruciating pain in his heart area.

"Damn, it hurts a lot," he cursed and tried to think of a way to lessen the pain when suddenly the colourful mana strings merged with him, forming a connection with spirits.

He couldn't see the spirits, but he could feel they are helping him recover his MP.

After sensing this, without hesitation, he used healing skills to ease his pain.

But he still felt like his heart burning in flames; if not for his high endurance, he might have fainted again.

The pain lasted for a while, and when it disappeared, it left Li Wei with a weak body.

"Damn, I got scammed for nothing," he cursed, after thinking about the special ability.

To contract the spirits, he needed to see them first, but like hell, he can do it.

Just as he was in thought, the space around him changed, returning him to the training room .

"Ah, XinXin, I miss you," he muttered and directly laid down his tired body on the ground, thinking about Mr. Mannequin.

"Just who was that person?" he pondered himself while checking his status to see if there is showing something.

However, he became disappointed as nothing shown there while he didn't feel any sort of ability.

He just gave up and laid down until he recovered fully.

"Sera, why didn't that person ask for his help? It was the best chance to do it," Luna inquired with a puzzled face after watching the entire conversation between them.

"Luna, why are you being an idiot with the things going like this? In the next few phases, all worlds will be involved in something bigger, and Li Wei will have no choice but to help that person," Sera replied with a sigh as she gazed at Luna with disdain.

"Sera! I am just asking for confirmation, and don't look at me with that gaze; I feel like crying," Luna muttered with a pout and teary eyes.

With Sera returning to her cheerful nature, she too started to do the same and started to talk with her about the worlds again.

***

Inside the training room of Villa No.1, Li Wei recovered fully and checked the time.

"It's only 15:30! I am recovering a lot faster," he muttered to himself and sat down thinking what to do.

The Mr. Mannequin has embedded the contract inside the orb, and he could feel and read it.

With that, he became relieved that Mr. Mannequin won't harm him and gave up on thinking about the ability now.

He will think about it when he was able to see the spirits, maybe in dreams.

"Hah, anyway, the most important thing is now to complete my class quest, or I will be stuck at level 100," he muttered and focused on the spirits using his connection.

The spirits were different types from basic elemental to mixed elemental and mutated elemental.

What he has formed the connection with are mixed and basic Elementals; as for mutated, they are very hard to attract.

However, it was enough for him as he wasn't creating a world-breaking skill.

He then stood up with a serious expression and aimed his hand ahead.

"Spirits of Aqua and Wind, heed my command and form the spirit characters," he shouted feeling a little embarrassed about how he looked when he did this.

'It's a good thing that no one is here,' he thought, when suddenly the air in front of him started to hum with a sound, and multiple special characters filled with water and air formed.

The characters looked mysterious and contained the element mana; however, they can't be seen unless you have a connection with spirits, the same was for understanding them.

To Li Wei who has a connection with them, it wasn't a problem to see or understand them, but the problem was arranging them in a working order.

The process was similar to making a computer program but it contains a lot of different things making it more difficult.

"Looks like it will take much more time than I thought," Li Wei pondered loudly with a sigh and started to arrange the characters.

First, he needed to set the minimum requirements of MP, then what will the MP do.

In this case, he is creating a water-based skill, so he has to add a function that it will convert the MP into the Aqua element and also the Wind element.

After getting this, he added the logic of how the water will form into a simple small bullet and then how it will shoot ahead with the help of wind.

The process looked simple but it was a lot difficult as he has to arrange the characters for almost ten to twenty pages of a normal notebook.

Not to mention he has to double-check everything or it might explode the moment he initiates the skill.

After checking, he nodded to himself and finally came to the most important part Skill Creation.
