Chapter 229: Present Time

Charles then retracted his gaze from the spell model and opened the game interface.

'Hmm, which spell model should I construct next? Mind-related? Defensive? Healing? Or supportive?' He massaged his temple for a moment and chose to construct the defensive spell model.

He hurriedly opened the spellbook option and focused his gaze on the [Sun's Shell] spell model.

The next instant, multiple corresponding spells appeared in front of his eyes.

But among them, one spell model named [Sun's Guard] caught his attention.

'It has similar effect as the Starfall Codex book's [Sun's Glare] spell.' He also checked other spells, but none caught his attention.

After thinking for a moment, he spent 195,400 Exp points and chose to construct the [Sun's Guard] spell model!

Unlike the last time, he didn't enter into an enlightenment state and used his cryptic analytic skill to comprehend while the spell model was in the construction process.

Same as before, the [Sun's Guard] spell model construction process took more than 48 hours!

Once he finished constructing the spell model, a burst of dazzling sunshine came out from the 5-meter tall hexagonal spell model and illuminated the whole Inner World.

Charles gazed at the newly constructed spell model and soon shook his head.

'This spell lacks any law essence. If my guess is not wrong, it could barely stop a normal Rank-4 attack spells. If the opponent uses law-infused Rank-4 spell, the defensive shield might crumble after a second or two. Comparing with the Finger of Destruction spell model, this one is nothing. This is the difference between comprehended and non-comprehended spell model, huh.' He let out a deep sigh and checked the total amount of Exp he had.

'786,529 Exp… It's more than enough to rank-up my both classes. But should I spend the free attribute points?' Charles furrowed his brows for a moment and shook his head.

'No. if the artifact's plan becomes successful, my wisdom power will get a large boost. Then, there comes the physical attributes. If I want to increase them to next stage, I have to rely on potions. But from the Holem's Crown's earlier words, even the Rank-4 Alchemist seems to have no ability to concoct the Sunset potions (Rank-4). Even if they concoct a potion, they will never put them in the auction. So, spending the free attributes on the wisdom attribute might not be a wise choice. Instead, I should save them and use it when I face obstacle to raise the attributes.'

He let out a deep sigh and spent 355,800 Exp on the main class.

'Hmm, I currently have 10 free attributes points and 127 free skills points.' He pondered for a moment and chose to level up the sub-class too.

He focused his attention on the sub-class section and poured 147,794 Exp points into it.

[You became an Lv-5 Shape-Shifter]

[1 free attributes point rewarded!]

[20 skill points rewarded!]

'Good.' He nodded his head and checked the status.

'I spent almost all the exp points, but only gained 11 attribute points and 60 skill points. Well, the system is just an artifact after all.' He let out a deep sigh, closed the game interface, and flew towards his Inner World.

Within a few seconds, he reached the ground, flew past volcanic mountains, lava pools, and strange fire forests, and soon arrived in front of the System Cube, which appeared around a 3x3 meter cube.

Charles glanced at the mysterious red cube for a second and shifted his gaze towards the longitudinal and latitudinal lines of runal letters encircling the cube.

Then, he tried to get near it but soon felt the same invisible force obstructing him from nearing the cube.

But unlike before, Charles felt something was off about it.

After thinking for a moment, he used his wisdom power and began to study the invisible force.

After two hours of deep analysis, Charles squinted his eyes all of a sudden.

'T-This… It's not some invisible energy is obstructing me, but this particular space seemed to be frozen in time…' He got dumbfounded for a moment.

"This is the power of Present Time." He couldn't help but feel excited inside.

'Am I able to master it?' A thought whirled in his mind.

'I have to try at least.' He instantly made up his mind and sat on the cross-legged position near the cube.

He used his wisdom power and [wisdom sight] skill for the next ten hours and tried his best to grasp the mysterious present-time ability.

Just when he was about to stop his analysis, he suddenly felt a familiar sensation.

At that moment, a flash of inspiration appeared in his mind.

'My [Fire Born] spell… It actually originates from the Rebirth Flame… A mysterious fire which abilities are unknown even to Mr. Runeth… But when the demonized Elder used his chaos scythe to attack me, not a single scratch appeared on my body… Why? It's not a chaos flame… Wait… Rebirth… Born as new… I think it might be a 'Time' related spell.' As the thought appeared in his mind, he instantly cast [Fire Born] spell on himself and soon felt that his thought processing ability began to accelerate.

Simultaneously, he felt that he could think faster than before and analyze the surroundings very carefully!

A moment later, a blue notification popped up in front of his eyes, causing him to be stunned inside.

[Seer Class unique skill obtained!

Accelerate Thoughts: An ability which allows user to think 1.5 times faster than before!

Caution: Using this skill continuously will drain one's mental energy.]

'This is indeed a big surprise.' Charles stared at the notification for a moment and then furrowed his brows.

'Accelerate Thoughts… If I continue to study the present 'Time' power, I can indeed improve this skill at a fast speed… Accelerate Thoughts is just a basic skill. As long as I grasp more secrets, I can even slow down the surrounding movements and act much faster… This must be how the Divines grasped 'Time Stop' ability.' His eyes flashed.

'Wait… I'm in my Inner World and I'm almost omnipotent like the Divines, right?' He stood up, raised both of his hands, and tried to stop the surrounding movements.

But soon, a frown appeared on his forehead.

'It's not working.' He maintained the same posture, used his full wisdom power, and tried to slow down the surrounding movements instead of completely stopping them.

Suddenly, he saw that everything around him began to slow down.

No, he noticed that he could only slow down the 'Time' around a 1-meter radius!

Still, this caused him to be amazed inside.
