Skills? Chp 22

#PERCY POV#

I fly quickly to the fading energy but stopped for a moment once it disappeared

I frown as I resume my flight over to it

I arrive in a couple of minutes and look around at a destroyed forest and I barely reach it before the energy is truly gone

"Damn it," I said having missed it I quickly go over to Camp Jupiter to check on my mom all the while wondering what that energy was

Something like that will surely draw others' attention

#UNKNOWN POV#

Who is that?

How did he sense me?

I must learn more about him.

#PERCY POV#

I arrived at my mom's place and spent some time with her as I have been incredibly busy with my own stuff

I have saved a few demigods and brought them over to Circe's island where they have finally met their parents and are spending time with them and training as best as possible

I have increased the speed at which the godly metal trees make the leaves by purchasing add-ons to my home base for the specialized soil and water for the [Greenhouse] which was by far the most expensive upgrade that I have gotten so far

A whopping 50,000 credits were taken for it but it was worth it

Since now any crops that I plant will have the necessary nutrition for each type of fauna however, that is only on the physical side of things

Something like the Tree Of Might would still need lifeforce in order to grow

I shadow-traveled out of Camp Jupiter and went to Circe's island again as Briares and the Cyclopes, I freed and had them make some new weapons and armor for them

They are also currently building me a new 'base' which is required in order for me to be able to activate [Base Invasion] which is going to be awesome

That is pretty much what it says

I am going to be attacked by creatures made by the system in waves

Each wave will get progressively harder until my base gets destroyed at which point rewards will be given

My base won't actually be destroyed though which is ok with me

Neither will my allies 'die'

Its a simulation

I am able to see the rewards which are Store Credits, special items generated by the system as well as a chance of getting Gacha tickets for the Gacha function which is going to be repaired in a few months

#TIMESKIP 6 DAYS LATER#

"Goddammit," I say laying on my back panting as my base was destroyed again

This is my second time doing base invasion and already I am getting my ass handed to me at the 12th wave

I had the option of the waves being filled with beings I knew or not for a greater chance of being given items I know of

Of course, I chose for it to be filled it with beings I know

Somewhat of a mistake since enemies get progressively harder each wave

The first wave was fifty skeletons using swords, axes, and bows nothing too difficult

Wave two had skeletons as well but these had muscles and pieces of old rotten flesh hanging from the bones

Still rather easy

Wave 3 had multiple repeated monsters from Greek Mythology like the Hydra, Minotaur, and Chimera

Wave 4 had some enemies from the OG Dragon Ball excluding King Piccolo no he was the last enemy of the 5th wave after I fought his children in that wave as well

He was rather weak but I still watched out for his magic

Still easy though

Wave 6 was Saibamen of different colors with many different specialties and finally, I could see actual progression on my side

Green Saibamen are all-rounders in fights, reds specialize in hand-to-hand, blue specializes in KI, and Yellow Saibamen are supporting which were the most interesting in my opinion as they were healing the others and even making them slightly stronger

I am going to try and replicate the healing

It never hurts to learn more healing techniques

Also, a purple Saibaman who was capable of all of those techniques and abilities

Wave 7 was Saibamen again but the boss was Raditz with two purple Saibamen

Wave 8 was all purple Saibamen a slightly stronger Raditz as a mini-boss and Nappa as the main boss

Wave 9 was Raditz, then Nappa, and finally Saiyan Saga Vegeta

I is slightly stronger than me in my base form

Wave 10 was both Vegeta and Cui, and then Zarbon and Dodoria

Wave 11 was the entire Ginyu force and I can only defeat in my True Saiyan Form

Wave 12 was Frieza who beat me up and then destroyed my base without issue

I did get a Zenkai though because of a hole in my fucking chest and since this is a real-life type simulation I felt all of the pain as I was healed

I haven't even gotten the rewards yet

I get up after suffering my defeat against Frieza in his third suppressed form

Honestly, I am grateful for fighting Frieza since this time around I am around half his power level in my True Saiyan form which gives me a rough estimate as to how strong I am after my Zenkai boost

I shake my head as pull up the screen

[Base Invasion Ended

Waves Attempted: 12

Waves Completed: 11

Calculating reward based on how many enemies were defeated and how well the user did

Rewards Granted:

12,000 x 2 (For Completing the same amount of Waves)

1 All Type Gacha Ticket in total taking both runs into account

3 skill books were gained in total for both runs (Iron Ranked)

Random Rewards Box]

I roll my eyes as I accept all of the rewards and a message appears telling me that my reward box has been delivered to my [Home Base] and three books appear as well and I look at them my eyes widen

"This is awesome," I say as I open one of the books, and as soon as I do it 'breaks' in glowing pieces which then flow into me and I get another message

[Passive Skill Obtained:

Vision Enhancement Rank: Iron

Your vision is improved]

I just blink as my eyes feel rather warm and I can barely spot a difference but it is nice

I get the other and look at the cover but it's just blank

I open this one and the same thing happens

[Passive Skill Obtained:

Tougher Skin Rank: Iron

Your skin is slightly tougher

Note this also applies to other necessary parts of your body in order to make it work]

I feel soothing warmth spread throughout my body

"Huh," I said feeling rather good as although I can barely even notice the difference anything is good right now

I open the third one

[Passive Skill Obtained:

Improved Resistance to Diseases Rank: Iron

Your resistance to diseases is slightly better]

This time around I just feel a small warmth around my body before it goes away

"Well, that is something," I said rather happy that this mode gives out skill books however, it seems that they are only given at random and from the ranks that I can see after pressing it I am going to be collecting them for a while

[System Skill Book Ranks

Iron

Bronze

Silver

Gold

Platinum

Obsidian]

These skills are different from the ones that I have or obtain through templates or achievements

In fact, these skill books would better work if I had only my powers as a son of Poseidon but since I am already this powerful at the Iron Rank they are not as good as they would be otherwise

I shake my head and resolve to look into this later

I go to my [Home Base] and see a somewhat big cardboard box in front of the door to my house

I get the box and go inside and put on the table and open it

I gasp

It's a red colored scouter and other assortments

I place the scouter on the table and loot the other things inside

I get out a small brown bag with something inside

I look in and my eyes go wide and I laugh out loud

Two Senzu beans

I laugh a bit more

I put them in the bag and set them down

I get out a crystal that makes me rub my head for a few moments as I remember what it is for

This crystal was one of the materials Bulma needed to fix Trunk's broken time machine that he left in the past before it was destroyed by Beerus

"Wow, I barely even remember that," I say with a frown as I am forgetting a few things already

I shake my head again and grab the next item

"Isn't this the lantern from Twilight Princess," I say with a small shrug putting it down as next I grab two swords from it and recognize one easily while the takes me a moment to remember it

The first sword was the one that Piccolo gave to Gohan

The other was the Goddess Longsword from the game Zelda's Skyward Sword

A small blue energy ball leaves the sword and turns into a blue and purple eastern dragon

"Master, I live to serve you," It says and I am slack-jawed at the OPness of the rewards and I just nod at the small dragon who goes back into the sword

(Why are they soo good) I ask myself before thinking about some more

Since most of the people that I fought in the waves could be considered planet bursters the rewards must be appropriate to the worth of the enemies defeated although it did say that the rewards were boosted and randomized the first time around and considering that I turned on the option of there the enemies being people I knew of.

I must get rewards for some of them and I got the rewards for both runs in one box

I search through it and pull out a black and blue robe

"A robe for Ravenclaw," I say with mirth putting it aside as I grab everything in there

A small ki blaster that was used by Frieza soldiers and some...

...panties

Really

I throw them into the trash and get the last three items

A jacket similar to Trunks except its red in color, a cool black leather Jacket which has a bit of sand on it, and familiar looking cowboy hat

The hat of Arthur Morgan

"Well, here comes the depression again," I say to myself while remembering that I can travel the multiverse

"I am going to absolutely murder you, you fucking rat," I say with a bloodthirsty grin on my face as I remember him beating on Arthur

I get up and put everything away and I get my new swords and walk over to the Enchanting store

I go up to the terminal and place my weapons on two holders and select the enchantments

"Purchase Self-Repair 3 and place the enchantments on both weapons, Also, enchant the Goddess longsword with Durability, Sharpness, and Holy attacks at level 3," I tell the terminal and I pay 45,000 Store Credits for everything

"Also, study the enchantments on the Goddess longsword before starting," I say and I leave after I see that the Goddess Longsword will be ready in 3 weeks and Gohans sword will be ready in 3 days
