BXBX NOVEL Chapter 121 - (121) Immersion
Just as it seemed that the Mana would completely erase the Formation, the smoldering stopped. The liquid Mana cascaded down from the large Formation as if it were a fountain.
Geth watched as the Recovery and Absorption Runes started to move. The two Runes rotated until they aligned perfectly with the new Formation.
The more significant Absorption Rune floated ten feet or more above the tip of the dome. The Recovery Rune rested just in the center below it.
The Mana being pulled in from outside flowed swiftly into the Absorption Rune. The Mana intake was much quicker than before!
An upside-down cone seemed to form as the Mana passed through the massive Rune, then through the Recovery Rune, and made its way into the Crescent Formation.
Geth could feel the density of Mana in his mental sphere increase significantly! It was even more potent than that of the temple that stood before him.
Albus flew upwards and pointed his finger in the air with a mischievous smile on his face. A glowing group of words was projected above him as if Geth were reading straight from the Grimoire.
****
User has created a Formation inside his mental sphere that resulted in the fusing of two Talents. As a result, a new Talent has been constructed.
Immersion (Max)-
User has further opened the wall between himself and the outside Mana.
As a result, manipulation of Mana has become almost natural. Mana costs have decreased drastically while recovery has increased.
Mana Recovery- 8x natural rate
Experience Bonus- 2x natural rate
Mana cost- 50% reduction for all Skills. Can not be reduced further.

Geth looked at the words hovering in the air before glancing back at Albus.
"Does this mean that you\'re here for good?"
"I should be able to stay here and work with your other selves now, yes." Albus\' face took on a relieved look. "You have no idea how cramped it can be inside of that book."
Geth couldn\'t help but laugh at the old man. He had some questions about what it was like in the Grimoire, but he would ask later.
For now, he wanted to check his mental capacity. Geth focused heavily on his selves.
It wasn\'t long before they began to separate into the twelve that had been in his mental sphere originally. This time, none of them were stumbling around.
The new group of his \'selves\' directly began flying around his mental sphere and studying its different aspects. Geth could feel a torrent of information flowing into him all at once.
One of his \'selves\' took control of his body and stepped outside the temple\'s range. None of the eleven Geth\'s inside his mental sphere disappeared.
He could barely even tell the difference in the density of Mana around him. It was like the quality of the Mana in the world had dulled down to scraps.
Geth saw Blaze leaning against one of the huts and grinning at him. He walked over as soon as he was noticed.
"I see you\'ve finally figured it out! Welcome to the club!" Blaze clapped his hands together in a joking manner.
Geth shook his head at his unorthodox friend, "I can\'t believe that you were able to come up with this method with the little Wisdom you have."
"Well, I sat in the presence of the temple for almost a month." Blaze seemed to count on his fingers as he said it.
"I stopped at thirty Wisdom just for the recovery. There really isn\'t any reason for me to add more after learning Immersion." Blaze shrugged.
"I agree, but I think that the magic resistance aspect is essential. Even with your most powerful spells, you probably couldn\'t come close to injuring me," Geth teased.
"Oh? You wanna have a little duel and find out?"
"Hahaha, maybe one day, my friend. For now, let\'s try not to kill off half of our population."
Blaze lifted his finger for a moment but put it back down. Geth was right. If he even cast one of his most potent spells, it would instakill anyone who wasn\'t a tank.
"Well, I need some action! When are we heading to conquer these new Dungeons!?" Blaze almost yelled in excitement.
"It won\'t be long. Let\'s just give everyone a couple of days with their families, then we will head out."
Blaze nodded, "So who is the main squad going to be?"
"Me, you, Zolis, Alise, Swole, and Filthy for now," Geth answered.
Blaze rubbed his chin for a moment, "We could use another mage, maybe one that has a bit of Agility or Defense. We need a true tank as well, no offense."
"None taken, I agree," Geth replied. "I haven\'t found anyone yet who would fit the bill.
On our way to the last of Dungeons, I want to recruit as many kids from the high school as possible. Maybe some good candidates will show out in training."
Blaze raised his eyebrows, "Trying to garner respect from a young age? Those members of the community would be quite loyal."
"That\'s the plan. We need a community that is both loyal and powerful. I didn\'t give out all of the information at the meeting.
The beast waves are just the beginning. Two and a half years from now, something even more powerful is coming," Geth divulged.
Blaze\'s eyes opened wide, "Even more dangerous than the threat of other humans? Wars for resources will likely break out in the near future."
"Much, much more dangerous. You noticed that Larz is an elf, right?"
"Yes, I did."
"And you\'ve also never seen an elf?"
"No, no, I haven\'t."
Geth looked his friend in the eyes, "The Earth isn\'t done expanding. Ten times the size was only the beginning."
He waited for Blaze\'s eyes to become clear before he continued.
"The next time the Earth expands, the races coming will be mightier than anything we\'ve seen. In the meantime, we need to become as strong as possible."
As the words sunk in, Blaze\'s face became stiff. He hadn\'t even reached the Level of Geth\'s other party members yet.
Geth patted him on the shoulder, "Don\'t worry. I plan on protecting everyone."
Blaze watched his friend\'s back as he walked past him and headed to the Tower.
\'If anyone can do it, it\'s you..\' Blaze thought before turning and heading to spend some time with his wife.
