Chapter 1191: Chapter 403: Twin Snakes_3

"The difficulty is truly immense!"

"But it was expected, and now there are only nine left!"

Facing potential threats, Rein naturally needed to quickly enhance his combat power, especially the special effect of the third layer of the Steel Heart Advanced Meditation Method, which comprehensively boosts metal series witchcraft power by sixty percent.

This held significant meaning for Rein.

Thus, Rein once again allocated 1 attribute point to Spirit. As his condition fully recovered, he repeated the previous process.

This time, Rein reached one hundred and two.

"Again!"

With Rein adding more spiritual power, he continued to outline the three-dimensional pattern of the third layer after recovering.

"Again!"

.....

Until the sky faintly tinged with dawn, Rein’s expression suddenly turned joyful, his fists clenched and waved vigorously!

After nearly an entire night, and a total of six attribute enhancements, Rein finally succeeded in outlining the third layer of the Steel Heart Advanced Meditation Method in one go.

At this time, his spiritual power had also increased to one hundred and twenty-nine points.

In his conscious sea, at the base of the three-layer crystal, the originally circular pedestal had thickened nearly twice, appearing more solid.

Then, the system prompt followed:

[You have practiced the third layer of the Steel Heart Advanced Meditation Method, related comprehension has increased!]

[Your skill, Steel Heart Advanced Meditation Method, has improved, Experience +5]

...

Rein quickly found the Steel Heart skill icon on the Warhammer Wizard (Legendary) skill panel and checked the updated descriptions.

The new description reads:

Steel Heart Advanced Meditation Method lv7 (1/5000), comes with special effect ’Metal Control lv3.’

[Metal Control lv3 (passive) effect: Your control over metal energy particles has been significantly enhanced.]

...

"lv3 Metal Control, the system description changed from ’slightly enhanced’ to ’significantly enhanced.’

The third layer of the Meditation Method corresponds to display levels lv7~lv9."

With experience from the last second layer, after thinking it over, Rein invested 2 skill points in the lv7 Steel Heart Advanced Meditation Method.

As the Steel Heart Advanced Meditation Method jumped from lv7 to lv9, instantly, a tidal wave of memories concerning the cultivation of the third layer of the Steel Heart Advanced Meditation Method surged into Rein’s mind.

In that instant, it was as if Rein had endured countless years in a mystic space, practicing the third layer of the Meditation Method.

Minutes later, when Rein again attempted to outline the third layer meditation model, he was pleasantly surprised to find the visualization time almost reduced by two-thirds!

Looking at the only 1 remaining skill point, Rein knew the Meditation Method should have reached its limit, but wanted to confirm just to be sure.

With the added point, just as expected, the system failure prompt appeared:

[Point Addition Failed! The current Steel Heart Advanced Meditation Method has reached its limit.]

...

"Not bad."

Seeing this, a smile emerged on Rein’s face, lv9 is the limit of the third layer.

At this moment, looking at the attribute panel, Rein noticed that the Spirit value had changed significantly again:

Spirit: 120 (Crystalization 2%)

Previously, his spiritual power after point addition reached 129 points, but now it was only 120 points, a reduction of 9 points in total. However, the crystallization progress had increased by one percent, from 1% to 2%.

With the experience of previous liquification, Rein wasn’t too surprised, just slightly unexpected at the extent of the reduction.

"It’s likely due to the Advanced Meditation Method’s effect of refining and purifying spiritual power."

"After all, concentrated essence is truly valuable."

After a night of meditation method cultivation, perhaps due to the joy of success, or the recovery effect of point addition, Rein did not feel any fatigue; instead, he was eager to try more.

At this moment, a ray of dawn light streamed through the window, gently illuminating Rein’s back. In a moment, the youthful vigor of Rein and the dawn’s first light mysteriously harmonized together.

...

Sword Bearer Headquarters.

In Tatia’s office, every few minutes someone would enter and report.

"Lord Tatia, we just received news that last night, Wazi Province, Moselle Province, Nome Province, and Marn Province were all attacked by the cultists."

"This time, their dispatched personnel were of a high caliber and very powerful, even appearing as epic-level strongmen comparable to Imperial Guardians. The branches in various provinces are requesting headquarters support." A piece of intelligence staff reported.

"For enemy involving epic-level strongmen, direct it to General Augustus for review. As for the others, pass them to the task hall as missions." Tatia swiftly instructed.

With the Imperial Guardians requiring higher coordination, General Augustus must personally intervene. Tatia is responsible for internal coordination within the Sword Bearers.

Moreover, over the past week, Tatia clearly felt an increase in cult activity within the Empire Territory, repeatedly encountering epic-level strongmen.

At least ten Imperial Guardians had to leave the Imperial City Tamriel to address the situation.

At this moment, a female staff member approached Major General Tatia quietly reporting:

"Lord Tatia, we discovered the Secret Snake Sect’s ’Twin Snakes’ Areda and Ailida appeared in Waze Province three days ago."

"But yesterday, they appeared again in Furi Province. The intelligence hall assesses that their likely destination is towards the Imperial City."
