Chapter 70 Strengthening Nen Ability

  Rosen sank the transformed spirituality into his heart and immediately sensed the changes from the extraordinary source that turned into a black card.

  His mind ability has been upgraded from LV1 to LV2.

  [Thought Ability LV2: Ability to manipulate one's own life force (chi)), combining spiritual generation and control of thought energy]

  [Features: Grants the mind energy darkness and nightmare attributes]

  Rosen tried it roughly and found that the characteristics of his telepathic ability after this qualitative change were extremely powerful.

  The Qi itself can be endowed with properties such as ice and fire through the transformation system, but the Qi cannot change as you wish. If you want to give the Qi other properties while giving it attributes, the difficulty will increase continuously.

  But now there is no need for additional practice, the transformed Nen ability directly has two more innate attributes.

  Rosen cast Shadow Escape without thinking, which was also Level 2 Shadow Escape. This time, not only was his concealment ability greatly enhanced, but the power consumption was also reduced a lot. There was even no limit to the number of teleportations that were originally only two.

  As long as his mental energy is strong enough, it will not be a problem for him to teleport multiple times in the shadows in a short period of time.

  Rosen understood the changes in his mind abilities and turned to understand the new innate abilities that Sequence 8 pet hunters had acquired.

  [Nightmare Shackles LV2: Can manipulate spirits to transform into Nightmare Shackles]

  [Features: Nightmare Shackles have certain sealing properties]

  It took Rosen a while to figure out what was going on with such a simple innate ability.

  To put it simply, the Nightmare Shackles are a special pet leash. Once this pet leash links him and the Nightmare Slime together, they can share other powers besides skills, including his most anticipated vitality and spirituality.

  Humans are not born with an advantage in terms of physical strength, but Rosen's mental ability focuses on the vitality brought by physical strengthening.

  Although huge vitality cannot determine the quality of mental energy, it can greatly increase the amount of mental energy.

  Rosen now only needs to share the vitality of the Nightmare Slime through the Nightmare Shackles, and then wait for the Nightmare Slime to return to Sequence 8. His total amount of mental energy will immediately increase by more than ten times, and by then the damage of any shot from the God-Slaying Crossbow will be increased several times.

  The basic properties of Nightmare Shackles are easy to understand, but it took Rosen a long time to figure out its characteristics.

  Nightmare Shackles tied to your own pet will enhance shared abilities, but if tied to someone else, it will produce two special effects. The first is to force the target to fall into a deep sleep and have nightmares, and the second is to seal the target's extraordinary powers.

  For the time being, this is Rosen's first method of capturing extraordinary life alive.

  As expected, his innate ability did not disappoint him. Growing according to the sequence level was the most suitable for him.

  Rosen summoned the God-Slaying Crossbow, a telepathic ability he developed on his own initiative.

  At Sequence 9, because his requirements were too high and he had little experience, the God-Slaying Spear and Crossbow did not show any special advantages, but now his mind ability has reached LV2, and his total amount of mind energy can be increased many times with the help of the Nightmare Shackles.

  Under the current conditions, he can already truly develop the power of the God-killing Spear and Crossbow.

  At first, Rosen thought it was amazing that the bullets could track the enemy.

  After all, seeing the bullets that can turn corners in the movie makes people so excited.

  But as he learned more about the Hunter Sequence, he realized that automatic bullet tracking was completely unnecessary.

  Since your enemies can dodge your straight-line attacks, why can't they dodge your attacks using a turning and slowing-down trajectory?

  What the hunter has to face is not ordinary people who stand as targets. The ideas he got from the movie Assassins of the League are not suitable for hunters.

  A true hunter needs to pursue an instant burst of power to kill the prey.

  If you can't kill it, then make a strategic retreat and try again.

  In fact, hunters and assassins are a bit similar. The hunter's concealment ability is not as good as the assassin sequence, but the hunter's ultimate assassination ability is not inferior to the assassin. The only difference is that the assassin sneaks up to the target and bursts out instantly, while the hunter locks on remotely and kills instantly.  

  A truly powerful hunter will never engage in close combat and will never give anyone the opportunity to get close to his safe range.

  Rosen looked at the God-killing Crossbow in his hand, and it took him a long time to make up his mind how to transform this mental ability.

  First, the gun body gains the ability to transform into a long-range sniper form and a close-range crossbow form. The sniper form is actually to lengthen the barrel and install a silencer, which ultimately increases the long-range range and lethality to the extreme.

  From now on, use the sniper rifle form at long distances, and switch to the crossbow form at medium and short distances.

  It is easy to solidify the form, but what is really difficult is the enhancement of ability.

  Rosen first disabled the automatic search function, then strengthened the caliber of the bullet, the concealment ability of the bullet, and the energy that the bullet could compress. These were not enough, he also planned to set a restriction and oath against the God-Slaying Crossbow.

  Constraints and oaths, this is a special method of strengthening the ability of Nen.

  Make rules and swear in your heart, then abide by them. The stronger the rules you make, the stronger the enhancement of your Nen ability will be.

  However, if one violates the restrictions that one sets, at best one will lose the ability to read, at worst one will die.

  Constraints do not mean that you can set rules casually. All rules must be things that you can do.

  Rosen quickly set three restrictions to constrain his own mental abilities.

  The God-Slaying Crossbow can fire a maximum of nine bullets a day. If a bullet fails to hit the enemy, he will suffer the same amount of damage. If a bullet kills the enemy, his total amount of mental energy will immediately decrease by 99% for each enemy killed. These three restrictive rules can be said to be more stringent than the other.

  Nine bullets can only kill nine scattered targets at most.

  If the target fails to hit the enemy, he will still have to bear the same amount of damage. The key reason why Rosen dared to make this rule is that he can transfer the damage he suffers to the nightmare slime through the nightmare shackles, so in fact he transferred the constraints he had to bear.

  After killing the enemy, the total amount of mental energy is reduced by 99%, which is the same as the previous restriction.

  99% of his total mental energy was gone, but he still had a huge amount of mental energy shared from the nightmare slime.

  The changes brought about by three consecutive extremely harsh restrictions on normal Nen users are obvious. Now the basic damage contained in each bullet fired by the God-Slaying Crossbow has increased by 30%.

  It seems far less than the doubled damage of Death Blow, but it should be noted that what is increased here is the basic damage.

  Add to that the death blow amplification, and that's equivalent to a 60% increase in damage.

  The more ways to enhance damage there are in the future, the greater the value of this 30% basic damage will be.

  The temporary strengthening of the gun form ended, and Rosen switched to strengthening the crossbow form.

  His requirement for a gun is a one-shot kill from a long distance, and his requirement for a crossbow is a fast firing rate that can entangle the enemy.

  So he increased the firing rate of the God-Slaying Crossbow and reduced the difficulty of manufacturing the crossbow arrows.

  Finally, Rosen began to transform the God-Hunting Demon Eye, which is the real core of the God-Slaying Spear and Crossbow. Now his LV2 telepathic ability is enough for him to give the God-Hunting Demon Eye some powerful pupil techniques that he truly desires.

  At first, Rosen had thought about using the power of Nen to carve the Sharingan.

  The greatest value of this eye technique is that it can give himself a plug-in to accelerate learning.

  Rosen knew very well that he was not a genius except for the advantage of cheating.

  So he needs external assistance. What he values ​​most about the Sharingan is not the eye techniques, but the insight and copying abilities, which can enable him to learn better from other extraordinary sequences.

  He is now Sequence 8, and he can still invite skill instructors from the Hunter Guild to teach him.

  But when he becomes Sequence 6, or even Sequence 3 in the future, who will he learn from? He

  can only rely on self-study. All the paths after the extraordinary sequence can only be walked by himself.

  But Rosen was very clear that he had no advantage in studying, so he once considered the Sharingan, but times have changed and he now has better options, so the Sharingan that he once dreamed of can only be ruled out.
