Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons-Chapter 774 - 677 Energy Data Life

With Kafka as a precedent, everyone began to wait on the sidelines, eager to see what kind of massive transformations would happen to the people who followed.

Kafka's firsthand experience informed everyone that the glory promotion at the gold level has exceedingly exaggerated effects.

The glory promotion at the gold level might become the first major benefit of enhancing the guild, and the primary goal for every new guild member.

Before long, another individual room door was pushed open, and the entire room turned into flying ash.

Raphael walked out from inside.

Perhaps because Raphael is human, the changes in appearance were not very noticeable.

But his entire hair became shiny and smooth, and lengthened quite a bit, and his skin clearly appeared extremely smooth and white.

Such good skin made the human female members nearby their eyes flash with intense envy.

And Raphael's facial features became more harmonious, having an extremely perfect proportion.

In brief, he became more handsome.

This change made all the women nearby have red sparks in their eyes.

The main reason is that Raphael's change was indeed quite significant, and he hadn't put on his huge round-framed glasses yet.

It gave off a sudden impression of becoming vastly more handsome.

Like a messy, unkempt chubby shut-in from the class, who suddenly returned after a summer break looking clean, and even thinner.

Then you suddenly notice how handsome this person is.

This comes from a huge contrast.

Anrule walked up without hesitation and reached out her hand, tugging hard at Raphael's cheek.

"Why do you look like a pretty boy now, damn it, quickly change back."

Raphael unhesitatingly swatted his hand away and then put on his glasses, adjusting them.

He stretched his neck and sniffed around Anrule's neck.

"Superficial woman, I can already smell that scent of envy and jealousy on you."

Anrule unhesitatingly shoved his head away and then said to her teammates, "Next time, I must be the first to get promoted, I don't care."

She was too envious, not of any power potential changes, but the most direct appearance of becoming more beautiful, which for a beauty-loving female is truly a game changer.

Raphael and the others immediately nodded and said, "Okay okay, next time it's you."

Seeing Anrule's current appearance, it's better not to argue with her.

As for how much Raphael's strength has changed, they'll have to explore it themselves.

Besides his team, no one would ask as it's very impolite.

It might even be considered provocative.

Then it was Bonona and Abby's turn.

Kane patted the three Lantern Knights who walked over.

"With this promotion, you can take another step forward at the gold level. I hope you will work hard."

"We won't let you down, Your Majesty."

Kane nodded, then waved them off to leave on their own.

Among them, the one who changed the most was Bonona. When Bonona came out, the nearby female explorer members immediately surrounded her.

Especially Milo and Mina, who crazily covered their mother's face with kisses.

The changes in the male members were already very direct.

The first female member to appear in front of everyone gave them a firsthand demonstration of what the glory promotion at the gold level meant.

Bonona's elf bloodline began to burst forth, and her ears completely transformed to be like an elf's.

Perhaps due to the elf bloodline, Bolona's external changes were exceptionally exaggerated.

The level of beauty increased by several notches.

Nearby, Raphael and a few others were staring intently, saying this beauty was kind of soul-stealing.

Adding her matured, intellectual charm as a mother.

To the men present, it was like a blade stabbing straight into their hearts.

Only Kafka, this devil with a different aesthetic, patted their shoulders reminding, "What are you looking at? She already has two kids."

"But she's a single mom, I still have a chance, right?" Raphael muttered beside him.

"Oh my God, do you hear the nonsense you're saying? You should be the devil, compared to you, I'm practically an angel."

Seeing their conversation and actions, Kane shook his head helplessly, waiting for the last member to come out.

After a few minutes, the last individual room finally pushed open, and Star Symbol came out.

As soon as Star Symbol emerged, Kane and Raphael surrounded her immediately.

Including Funa.

Kane stepped forward, giving Star Symbol a quick scan, then asked, "So, how do you feel?"

Because just from the appearance, Star Symbol didn't show any change.

Raphael and others anxiously watched her, afraid that something might be wrong.

Star Symbol looked at everyone, smiled and shook her head saying, "No need to worry, I'm in excellent condition. The promotion effects are reflected in me."

As she spoke, she suddenly stood there, and then a phantom composed of blue lines and beams emerged from her body, representing Star Symbol.

The appearance and body did not differ in the slightest, but it looked like it was constructed of some kind of data.

Kane recognized immediately what it was; this state is something he noticed when researching the sealed finger of the God of All Machines.

Unexpectedly seeing the real thing here.

Kane's tone carried inexplicable excitement.

"Is this an energy data life?"

Upon hearing Kane's words, Star Symbol nodded.

After hearing Star Symbol's confirmation, Kane couldn't help but pat her shoulder.

"The road ahead is smooth for you, starting now. If you have time, come to the lab to find me."

With that, Kane left with Funa, leaving the space to their teammates.

Their subsequent conversation wasn't something for outsiders like them to hear.

Funa looked up and asked Kane, "What do you mean by what you just said? I didn't notice much change in Star Symbol. Is the promotion effect not apparent on her?"

"The apparition you just saw is the most authentic Star Symbol, akin to your soul but much more resilient."

"Meaning that the current Star Symbol no longer has weaknesses like the previous core, and possesses exceedingly strong soul resistance."

Speaking of which, Kane couldn't help but marvel.

"It's hard to kill Star Symbol now."

After hearing Kane's explanation, Funa knowingly nodded.

In other words, the current Star Symbol has not only gained the effect of promotion but the effect has manifested perfectly.

What Funa doesn't know is that Star Symbol's promotion isn't just perfect; it's practically custom-made, having transcended a level of life.

Actually, Kane has one more crucial piece of information he hasn't shared, the reason he said Star Symbol's path is smooth.

That is, the initial and primal state of the God of All Machines is energy data life.

It is the fundamental starting point of the artificial mechanical deity and the origin of the God of Machines.

Meaning if Star Symbol continues on this path, she will become something akin to the God of All Machines.

The God of Mechanics is the road she will travel in the future.

This is a path proven feasible, undeniably powerful.

It's quite interesting, truly looking forward to seeing the future form of Star Symbol.

After completing the promotion tasks for everyone in the Guild, Kane arrived at Burton's bar.

Kreya and Longbei had been waiting here for quite some time.

They all received Kane's message this morning to help with training in new skills.

They were well prepared, as Kane had recently acquired a bunch of Magic Stones, indicating another substantial haul this time.

Seeing Kane arrive, Kreya smiled and said, "Finished the work? Judging by their expressions, the upcoming Golden Promotion is bound to be fiery."

Kane took a drink from the beverage Longbei handed over and said with a smile, "For us, the Glory Promotion being fiery is a good thing, and helping them promote deepened my understanding of the skills."

"By the way, Longbei, I got a new Skill Stone here that suits you well. Head to the Platinum Country for the ceremony first."

Upon hearing Kane's words, Longbei jumped up immediately.

"What are we waiting for? Good brother, let's go!"

Hearing Longbei's words, Kane and Kreya exchanged glances and shook their heads helplessly, then the three instantly vanished from the bar.

Watching the three vanish, Burton bestowed a gratified smile, shook his head, and snapped his fingers.

The sphere perpetually floating beside him descended, collected the empty glasses, and took them to the kitchen for cleaning.

Kane and the others arrived at the Platinum Palace.

Longbei immediately stood nearby, appearing ready.

Seeing the situation, Kane wasted no time, taking out a Crystal Hourglass from the Space Equipment and placing it between them while infusing magic power.

He recited incantations, taking out the Golden Skill Stone.

The Golden Skill Stone turned into a stream of light during the ceremony and entered Longbei's chest.

As the Skill Stone entered, Longbei shivered as if struck by a chill.

He then furrowed his brow and uncomfortably rubbed it.

The infusion of knowledge from the Golden Skill made his stone-like head feel slightly uncomfortable.

Yet, it's already a big improvement compared to the previous pain.

Of course, it might also be that the skill itself contains little knowledge.

Longbei then closed his eyes and began to ponder deeply.

Upon reopening them, he immediately entered Titan mode.

His entire body grew to two meters tall, turning gray-black like stone, with blue lightning running over it.

At this moment, black and golden patterns began spreading over the gray stone skin; mysterious runes densely covered him.

This sudden, unseen effect should be the new skill Longbei just acquired.

Longbei extended his hands, squeezed them, then punched each other.

The force was immense, with the collision creating a massive impact wave that left Kane and the others nearby momentarily blinded, eyebrows slightly furrowed.

"My defense instantly maxed out; ordinary physical damage won't affect me at all."

Speaking thus, he drew an axe from the Space Equipment and struck his thigh.

Yet, his leg bore no marks, not even a white line; the flesh didn't depress.

Instead, it emitted a metallic clashing sound.

Like a wooden stick striking against iron.

"My magic resistance is now 90%, who can kill me!"

Longbei uttered bold words, raising his hands and showcasing his robust muscles.

Afterward, he exited the state, returning to normal, and stepped forward to give Kane a hearty hug.

"Good brother, this skill is truly amazing."

Seeing Longbei's elated state, Kane laughed and said, "If you're happy, that's great. Let's go to the training ground now to train my new skill."

With that, they disappeared from the Platinum Palace again.
