#348 - Fourth professional skill

If it weren't for Xingyuan's reminder, I would have almost forgotten that as a life profession, the Necromantic Blacksmith also unlocks a second profession skill upon reaching level 20, even if it's my second profession!

It seems I'm not comprehensive or cautious enough when considering unknown matters. I need to think more in the future. Fortunately, there were no consequences this time!

The appearance of this notification startled Shen Xingyan slightly, followed by a burst of joy. At the same time, he also reflected on his own negligence.

Then, he gently rubbed his hands, silently praying for another powerful skill. Although his current skills were already strong enough, he wouldn't mind having even more good skills.

After a period of prayer, he nodded slightly to confirm the activation of this profession skill!

As he confirmed, the notification floating in front of him changed to 'Activating 1%'.

Having experienced this scene before, he knew the approximate duration of this progress, so he wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he stood in place, enjoying the process with amusement.

At the same time, he began to speculate about the fourth profession skill he was about to acquire.

"Will the Necromantic Blacksmith's second profession skill grant me an attack skill? Although I know the probability is low, I can still have a little hope."

As Shen Xingyan thought this, the progress bar slowly increased.

After nearly two minutes, the progress value in front of him finally reached 100%.

Then, the notification instantly disappeared, replaced by the Necromantic Blacksmith's second profession skill notification appearing before his eyes:

"Congratulations, you have successfully unlocked the second profession skill of the Necromantic Blacksmith!

Skill Forging: Consumes 20 ~ 1000 points of Primal Energy to forge the skills of single or multiple undead creatures, increasing the skill's effect by 1% ~ 50%. Maximum individual increase: 50%. Skill cooldown: 1 minute."

Shen Xingyan carefully stared at the skill description in this notification. After discovering that it wasn't the attack skill he had imagined, he wasn't disappointed.

After all, with his current attribute growth rate, even without attack-type skills, attribute suppression alone would make him many times stronger than those with attack-enhancing skills.

He had wanted an attack skill before only because of a slight obsession in his heart.

But now, seeing this profession skill, he discarded his previous thoughts and revealed a 'so fragrant' expression on his face!

"Fortunately, Wangcai and the others have a hidden skill that increases attributes by 100%, otherwise, my powerful profession skill would be a bit of a waste!"

At this time, filled with joyful emotions, he happily looked at the fourth profession skill appearing in the attribute panel.

Then, he directly silently recited the use of the fourth profession skill in his heart, and the small hammer surrounded by black aura appeared. After he injected 1000 points of Primal Energy into it, the small hammer instantly came to Wangcai's side.

But this time, unlike the previous 'Body Forging', it didn't secrete strands of black lines to wrap Wangcai, but instantly merged into Wangcai's hand bone.

After half a minute, the small hammer suddenly returned to his mind, and the notification of successful skill enhancement appeared before his eyes:

"Skill Forging completed. Current forging target has 0% remaining enhancement."

Seeing this, Shen Xingyan nodded slightly, understanding that Wangcai's 'Berserk Skill' had been enhanced by 50%. Then, he continued to level up his second profession.

"Congratulations, your second profession level has been raised to level 21, rewarding you with +40 to all attributes, +80 free attribute points, +40% to the maximum individual enhancement of the first profession skill, +5% to the maximum individual enhancement of the second profession skill. I hope you continue to work hard and strive to improve!"

"Congratulations, your second profession level has been raised to level 22, rewarding you with +40 to all attributes, +80 free attribute points, +40% to the maximum individual enhancement of the first profession skill, +5% to the maximum individual enhancement of the second profession skill. I hope you continue to work hard and strive to improve!"

Shen Xingyan continuously confirmed the two level-ups, and the upgradeable icon in the attribute panel finally disappeared.

Feeling the improvement of his body attributes, and the attribute panel that had once again obtained a leap in improvement, he felt happy, but also felt some pressure.

"The hidden profession's improvement, whether it's attribute improvement or skill strength, is truly monstrous! In comparison, the improvement of my farmer profession can simply be described as tragic!

And wanting to extract so many attributes into the real world, the money spent is not a small amount. Fortunately, I have a mutated first profession skill, otherwise, I would really feel a deep sense of powerlessness!"

Thinking of this, Shen Xingyan realized what 'happy troubles' meant!

Then, he allocated all 280 points of Primal Energy to the Primal Energy attribute, bringing it to a new high of 1842!

Then, he looked at the current attribute panel with admiring eyes, and whispered softly with a smiling face: "Tsk, according to my previous idea, with my current attributes, I should be able to walk sideways in the entire base.

But after seeing the improvement range of the hidden profession, I now feel that these attributes are still a bit weak and need to be improved further!"

After cheering himself up, he extracted an epic-quality ostrich into the real world, and looked at the wallet with only two gold coins and a little more left, but felt a little funny.

Then, he moved his mind and directly returned to the real world, and the first thing he did after regaining consciousness was to check his harvest this time.
