My Runes Can Be Upgraded Chapter 042 Earth Elf

42 042 Earth Elf

As Wu Wei had no knowledge of either upgrade path, he felt a little repulsed as it reminded him of a tricky multiple-choice question.

What a pain!

Golem Leader or Golem Fairy?

Wu Wei had just encountered a Golem Leader, so he had a rough idea of what it could do.

Its name made it sound like more of a magically-inclined runic creature. If it could use both Earth Spike and Earth s.h.i.+eld, it would not be a bad boost to his party’s combat power.

It was also likely that it possessed [Leader’s Might]! If Wu Wei could know for sure, he might have selected this upgrade path without hesitation.

It was a huge temptation.

However, Wu Wei ultimately decided to go with Golem Fairy.

“The Golem Leader’s skill should indeed be [Leader’s Might]. However, although this skill is powerful, it is only helpful in specific scenarios. It is not practical for me.”

Furthermore, while the Golem Leader’s attributes were higher than Yellow’s, it was only by a slight margin – and Yellow was not even Stage 1 yet.

“Yellow will definitely have higher stats after his upgrade.”

In short, there was no reason to choose it.

As for the Golem Fairy, Wu Wei did know for sure if it would be a better choice, but – by process of elimination – now was the time to find out.

After Wu Wei confirmed his selection, his second Core Rune began to heat up and glow.

As it glowed, a wave of power was transmitted into Wu Wei’s body.

Wu Wei’s own body was strengthened along with the upgrade.

However, because Wu Wei’ had already undergone one ma.s.sive transformation before, the strengthening this time did not have remarkable outward changes.

Nevertheless, he was now about 10% stronger.

On top of this, Wu Wei felt that his spiritual power had also been raised, as his mind now felt much clearer.

When he checked his attribute window, Wu Wei realized there was now a newly-added line for ‘Spiritual Power.’ Its stat value was listed as 1.2.

Of course, as the [Spider Ring] gave him one point in Spiritual Power, Wu Wei’s base Spiritual Power was only 0.2.

Well, it was better than nothing, so Wu Wei still felt good about it.

The upgrade was now complete.

[Your Second Core Rune has been upgraded from Common to Rare quality. Would you like to check?]

“Yes!”

Wu Wei clicked on the b.u.t.ton. Golem Doll – or rather, Golem Fairy – was re-summoned.

The moment it appeared, Wu Wei almost had a heart attack.

Previously, Golem Doll was about 1.1 meters tall. Instead of growing bigger, it had shrunk to less than 30 centimeters.

It had a pair of yellow wings on its back, was dressed in yellow clothes, and even had yellow skin. It had a curvaceous figure and a pair of big round eyes that shone with curiosity. It was adorable and beautiful.

“So beautiful!”

Wu Wei could not help but praise her.

The little fairy was pleased by Wu Wei’s words and smiled from ear to ear. Her tiny wings began to flap as she flew toward Wu Wei’s side and rubbed her tiny face against Wu Wei’s.

Wu Wei’s face became smeared with clay.

Although she was extremely cute, she was still a golem.

However, Wu Wei did not mind this at all.

Wu Wei opened up her attribute window to take a look.

..

..

Wu Wei could not help but smile upon seeing the Golem Fairy’s attributes.

He was more than satisfied.

Although she didn’t have a direct attack skill, she had a lot of support utility – especially with !

Although Wu Wei was currently hiding, he was not completely safe.

Once a runic monster discovered him and more came, that would spell the end for him.

However, now that he had a Golem Fairy with , he had a way to learn what was happening outside.

could also prove very handy.

Wu Wei decided to test out Golem Fairy’s abilities first.

He discovered that, after the advancement, the efficiency of her Earth Transformation skill had increased significantly.

Initially, Wu Wei’s spiritual power only allowed him to dig around six cubic meters. However, he could now easily dig two to three times the amount!

In addition, was much more helpful than Wu Wei expected. It allowed Golem Fairy to phase through the ground and move without leaving a trace, so it could be used for either scouting or escaping.

The only drawback was that it was bound to Wu Wei and could not go beyond a hundred meters from him.

However, the most surprising discovery that Wu Wei made was that her two advancement conditions for [Earth Nourishment] and [Earth Transformation] did not disappear.

They were only reset – with upgraded limits!

The previous limit of 1000 was now 50,000.

It was a 50 times increase.

Although Wu Wei felt like vomiting blood upon seeing the staggering number, it at least gave him a clear advancement direction.

Wu Wei instructed the little fairy to scout the outside first before expanding his hiding s.p.a.ce to 20+cubic meters. He also formulated several escape plans. After making all the necessary safety preparations, Wu Wei turned his attention to Yellow.

In this situation, there was no need for him to hold back on leveling Yellow anymore, so Wu Wei decided to upgrade him as well.

Although he was a little worried that Yellow’s two incomplete conditions would disappear if he did so, he felt that now was not the time to be concerned about it.

“Our lives are more important. Little Fairy, keep an eye out on the surroundings and let me know if anyone comes, okay?”

“Ya ya!”

Little Fairy, who had just advanced, could not speak yet, but she babbled and nodded her head in response.

Upon seeing that she understood what he was saying, Wu Wei summoned his Book of Runes and began to get busy…
