Chapter 3: Chapter 3: Resisting the Ring of Fire



Yes, Alex had no plans to form a team with others and intended to face the Abyss Trial alone tomorrow.

Through the reactions of teachers and classmates just now, Alex already knew that even if he asked to form a team, no one would agree to team up with him. Facing the Abyss Trial, where death is possible, most people would not want to carry a burden that reduces damage by 90%.

So, Alex was eager to know whether the skill books promised by Principal Mark were still available.

Faced with Alex's question, Principal Mark replied, "Don't worry, there is nothing wrong with the skill book. These are the rules set by the Holy Tower, and no one can deny them."

Alex breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that the rules were set by the Holy Tower. In this case, he finally had the possibility to clear the abyss alone.

After the awakening ceremony, Principal Mark walked onto the podium again. "First of all, congratulations to the students who have successfully awakened. You have become professionals, which means you have a great future, but at the same time, you will also face the trial of the abyss. Tomorrow at 8:30, the students who have successfully awakened will gather here. The school will organize your start in the abyss trial."

"Students who have not succeeded in awakening should not be discouraged. You should also work hard to become useful members of society. Even a piece of toilet paper or a pair of underwear has its use. I hope you will shine in your positions in the future."

After Principal Mark said a few words of encouragement, he walked off the podium and came to Alex's side, "I will take you to receive your skills now."

Alex naturally had no objections and followed Principal Mark to the library. Upon arriving at the library, Principal Mark found two people just walking out of the door. These two were Vice Principals Charles and John Long.

When the two saw Principal Mark bringing Alex, they exchanged a knowing glance, greeted Principal Mark briefly, and left. The two left in a hurry, and Principal Mark did not engage them in conversation.

After walking into the library, Alex noticed Principal Mark frowning. Alex's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked, "Is something wrong, Principal?"

Principal Mark nodded, "There is a small problem." He then sighed, took out a C-level skill book, and handed it to Alex, "There were four C-level skill books for mages in the library before, but now there is only one left."

Alex's eyes lit up when he first heard that there were four books, but he felt a bit disappointed when he heard there was only one left. Taking the skill book handed over by Principal Mark, Alex saw the description of the skill.

**[Resist Ring of Fire]** (Level C) lv1

**Casting time:** Instant skill

**Cost:** 100 mana

**Description:** Release a ring of fire to push units 3 meters away from you, causing 200 points of skill damage. Skill cooldown time is 8 seconds.

The skill's damage is mediocre, but it's a life-saving skill. Alex was not in a position to be picky, so he happily accepted it.

Before leaving, Alex suddenly remembered something. The student named John Long, who was next to the vice-principal just now, also awakened as a mage today. John's awakened talents and skills were all C-level, with no damage reduction buff, making him a normal mage.

It stands to reason that John could normally obtain one C-level skill book, so why are there three missing ones?

After voicing his curiosity, Principal Mark explained, "It was Vice Principal Charles who used his authority and misappropriated two other C-level skills and gave them to John Long."

If it weren't for the rules of the Holy Tower, Alex wouldn't even have been given a C-level skill.

After understanding the crux of the problem, Alex had nothing to say. Who let his talent be so lackluster? But getting the skill book was a good thing. With so many skill points, he didn't have to worry about having good skills.

After getting the skill book, Alex and Principal Mark parted ways. After returning home, Alex opened his panel again.

**[Name]:** Alex

**Level:** lv1

**Life:** 100

**Mana:** 10120

**Strength:** 5 (affects physical attack, physical defense)

**Agility:** 6 (affects critical hit rate, speed)

**Intelligence:** 12 (affects spell attack, spell defense)

**Physical strength:** 7 (affects health, resistance)

**Skill points:** 380

**Evolution points:** 0

**[Talent]:** Cooldown reduction (G level)

**[Skill]:** Magical Body (A Level)

**[Skill]:** Resist Ring of Fire (C level)

It had cost 620 points to upgrade C-level skills to A-level before, but now he only had 380 points left, so he could only upgrade the Resist Ring of Fire to B-level.

Alex acted on his thoughts immediately. First, he upgraded the Resist Ring of Fire to the full level. Alex took a look and found that the effect was pretty good.

**[Skill]:** Resist Ring of Fire (C level) lvmax

**Mana cost:** 500

**Casting time:** Instant skill

**Effect:** Release a ring of fire to push units within 5 meters away from you, causing 2000 points of skill damage. Skill cooldown time is 5 seconds.

The damage is 2000 points, which is mediocre. The increased range is very useful, which means the attack distance of this skill has changed from 3 meters to 5 meters. In addition, the cooldown time is only 5 seconds, so ordinary monsters can't get close at all.

But Alex was not satisfied with this, because he had a damage reduction buff. Alex could only deal 200 points of damage when using 2000 points of damage. He planned to continue to upgrade.

"Ding, it is detected that the C-level skill Resist Ring of Fire has met the upgrade conditions. Do you want to spend 100 skill points to upgrade?"

Faced with the prompt, Alex chose to agree. Then, a brand new B-level skill appeared in the skill bar, which made Alex happy.

**[Skill]:** Flame Wheel (Level B) lv1

**Mana cost:** 800

**Casting time:** Instant

**Effect:** Summon 4 flame wheels to protect yourself. Each flame wheel causes 2500 points of skill damage. The flame wheel can push away enemies close to you. The attack range is 5 meters. The skill duration is 3 seconds and the skill cooldown time is 5 seconds.

In Alex's opinion, this skill is pretty good, as it can continuously cause damage and provide protection. With this skill, Alex's initial plan could be realized.

Alex did not hesitate and directly filled up the Flame Wheel.

**[Skill]:** Flame Wheel (Level B) lvmax

**Mana consumption:** 1500

**Casting time:** Instant

**Effect:** Summon 8 flame wheels to protect yourself. Each flame wheel causes 5000 points of skill damage. The flame wheel can push away enemies close to you. The attack range is 8 meters. The skill duration is 6 seconds and the skill cooldown time is 4 seconds.

After the skill is filled up, the number of fire wheels is doubled, the damage is doubled, and the attack distance is also greatly increased. The duration is 6 seconds and the cooldown time is 4 seconds, which means that as long as Alex has mana, this skill can be maintained.

"My skills are pretty good. I hope tomorrow's trial will go well."

After upgrading the Flame Wheel, Alex did not forget to also increase the magic body to the full level. After the magic body reached the full level, Alex's mana reached a terrifying value.

**[Magic Body]** (A level) LVmax

**Effect 1:** Increase MP by 30,000 points.

**Effect 2:** Increase mana recovery speed by 500%.

**Effect 3:** Reduce spell damage received by 25%.

The mana value increased by 30,000. Alex estimated that he could use the Flame Wheel skill 20 times in a row. This is without counting the mana return. With a 500% mana recovery speed, Alex could even become a perpetual motion machine.
