The other two memories had the same requirements that Rhicina had told him earlier. Still sitting in meditation Nicola let out a sigh of relief. "At least she didn't let me down with the information." He had put himself at risk by consuming this pill and managed to get out of a situation unscathed depending on his luck.
The content contained in the memory he received was not impossible to obtain, but it would take Nicola a long time to put it together. Cultivation methods were different for each class and each had different ways of breaking up the bottlenecks and forming their cultivation bases. Nicola found out about the golden cores just too close to overcoming to a level of cultivation of the silver stars.
According to these memories, golden cores were the most common reached by those who reached that level, others like crystals and magic circles needed the cultivator to know how to build them beforehand and act on their own. The golden core could be formed more intuitively just by gathering energy at one point, the system alone was able to control the process by itself.
But information about these variations of special cores and how to be able to identify them was important, as you would never know when you encounter such an opponent, perhaps it even helped by discovering in yourself certain skills that he did not know, such as rainbow irises. Which gave Nicola the ability to better understand the flow of the elements.
Nicola got up from the floor and went back to work, after all he would need to work hard to establish roots for his new base. "Kiiro, report!" He asked.
"The master spent an hour, twenty-seven minutes, thirty-five seconds receiving the new memories. Situation of the tower is staple, progress of the missions on the same level as before, without changes." The yellow fairy replied as it materialized in the room.
Kin and Gin had already set their own routine. Both went out to train their skills on magical beast in the forest for a while and then returned to train their other skills. Nicola had instructed the two to wear their fox masks that they had won from Tiane a short time ago and they were always seen with them. It protected their identities and added a layer of defense to both.
Kin continued to train his aura, an aura that represented the toxic side of the mushrooms mixed with the heat of the fire, the speed of light and the sharpening of the metal. His aura mixed these sensations and when it was activated it was as if a hot and poisonous sword was placed on the neck of his enemies, only a scratch was already possible to make the skin necrotize and blisters appear on all sides.
Meanwhile Gin concentrated on the path of a mage, she did not have a strong aura but her development was linked to the medicinal side of her mushroom body, with only one spell, which she imbued, water, light and her medicinal abilities, she it could heal even serious wounds.
But her attacking power could not be ignored, along with her brother she learned battle tactics and offensive spells that left anyone with their mouths open, something recent developed by her was the creation of needles that moved at the speed of light and crossed the vital points of the enemy completely off guard, leaving only an imperceptible hole, unless he knew where to look. Many magical beasts died without even knowing what had hit them that way.
Both teenagers had recently reached level 14, Nicola had no doubt that the two would be able to enter the level of silver stars just like him.
Something that surprised even Nicola this time was the performance of Tuatha with skills related to strategy. Nicola had previously presented him with a strategy book and saw his interest in the subject. After that he brought games back from the Earth like chess and shogi to find out how he was able to plan and was impressed by Tuatha's ability to formulate quick and efficient responses to the strategies that Nicola used.
Nicola won only the first few games, while the next ones were all dominated by him, not letting Nicola ever feel the taste of victory.
Sometimes Tuatha would go out with Kin and Gin and try out new strategies with a team of undead troops that he borrowed to test those strategies. Nicola was strongly tempted to grant the base's defenses to him, after all he could use some of the processing power that Aka did in his own business. Tuatha had proven himself as a trusted friend and Nicola was willing to extend his trust to him as well.
"Kiiro, extract Tyris and the five eggs from the space artifact." Nicola asked and the fairy nodded, a spatial distortion occurred before a snake woman appeared in the room lying on top of five snake eggs. "Hello sleeping beauty!" He spoke while nudging Tyris with one of his tails.
