"Hestia, you were right." Quickly scanning his own status panel, Levi turned his head to look at the twin-tailed goddess waiting by his side. "The Development Ability 'Genshin,' in some respects, is indeed more powerful than 'Spirit Healing.'"
After being anchored by 'Constellation Resonance,' the 'Felis Catus' constellation's innate combat skill magic and burst magic no longer used the Cryo element from the Vision, but Levi's own magic power.
Furthermore, the buff effects provided by the six activated constellation stars also had some slight differences from the original.
Take the first constellation for example: the Vision's effect was to restore 15% of the maximum Cryo element after the Signature Mix field disappeared, but now it has changed to restoring 15% of his magic power, capped at 150 points.
On the surface, it seemed to have been hit with a considerable restriction.
But in reality, a 4-star Vision itself could only store 200 points of Cryo element.
Multiplying that by 15% is only 30 points, equivalent to 60 magic power.
As for Levi himself, including his potential stats, his total magic power definitely exceeded 5000.
He could easily hit the maximum recovery buff.
And that was without even factoring in the buffs from the Goddesses' Protection, his weapon, and his artifacts!
Hestia placed her hands on her hips, her head tilted up slightly, and hummed with a proud expression. "Boy, this is the foresight of a god."
Levi played along and clapped his hands. "Then what do you think I should do to strengthen myself next?"
This was a question Hestia had undoubtedly considered.
Upon hearing it, she didn't hesitate for a single moment before raising a finger and pointing to a certain name on the parchment. "I would max out this constellation first."
Levi followed his goddess's gesture and raised an eyebrow.
"It seems you're still a bit worried about my survivability."
The constellation Hestia had chosen was named 'Pristina Nola,' which, in the world of Genshin, corresponded to the little zombie from Liyue's Bubu Pharmacy, 'Qiqi.'
In the game, Qiqi, being a standard banner character, had combat and burst skills that were only useful during the early stages of exploration. As the game's difficulty gradually increased, she would quickly be phased out.
Unless you were a true devotee, you would rarely see her in high-difficulty content like the Abyss.
However, in reality, as one of Liyue's Adepti,
Qiqi's skill set, including her constellation bonuses, could almost be said to be definitively superior to the shield-providing Felis Catus constellation.
Especially the buff from her 6th constellation star, which, when casting her burst magic, could grant herself and all units marked as teammates the 'Limb Regeneration' effect.
In the game, Qiqi's C6 effect was to revive fallen characters. In reality, resurrection was a power belonging to the gods and would never appear on a 5-star or 6-star skill.
But even the 'Limb Regeneration' effect was a miracle rarely seen in this world.
Airmid Teasanare of the Dian Cecht Familia, known as the 'Saintess of the Battlefield,' was powerful, right? Her awakened magic was a combination of group effect, recovery, detoxification, and curse removal.
It was said that as long as a target still had a breath left in them, she could pull them back from the brink of death.
Even so, when faced with an adventurer with missing limbs, she could only fit them with a prosthesis, unable to make them whole again.
"It's never wrong to be a little careful," Hestia said in a low tone, hugging her Familia member's arm. "Didn't you tell me before that, for safety reasons, you'll most likely be challenging a Lv.5 Floor Boss next? When facing an existence like that, you can never be too cautious."
If possible, Levi would have actually preferred to grind his way to his next level-up feat by killing a large number of monsters, just as he did when going from Lv.1 to Lv.2 and from Lv.2 to Lv.3.
But the Deep Floors, from the thirty-seventh floor onwards, were where Lv.4 monsters appeared.
Let alone a team of just him and Tsubaki, even if they increased their party size to double digits, they would most likely face a total wipeout if they encountered even a minor accident.
In a way, starting from this stage, soloing a Floor Boss under the watch of a protector was actually the safer option.
Levi thought for a moment after hearing this, then nodded. "No one would ever complain about having too many recovery skills."
"Hehe~" Seeing that he had taken her advice, Hestia couldn't help but reveal a happy smile.
Now that the goal was set, the next step was naturally to pull on the gacha.
Although his 'Luck' Development Ability had imperceptibly risen to H rank, it hadn't yet reached the point where quantity turned into a qualitative change.
Six consecutive rounds of pulls consumed 14 million, 12 million, 7 million, 8 million, 15 million, and 14 million Valis from Levi, respectively.
[Constellation: Pristina Nola · 5-Star (Bound) x6: Can be used on a 4-star Cryo Vision (with or without constellation enhancements) or a 5-star Cryo Vision (with Pristina Nola C1/2/3/4/5 enhancements) to convert it into a 5-star Cryo Vision (with Pristina Nola C1/2/3/4/5/6 enhancements).]
…

[Attack Greatly Increased]
[When an attack hits a heavily wounded enemy, the weapon's attack power is greatly increased]
…
[Spirit Fox: Sin-Eater · 5-Star Magic Skill Book: After use, learn the 5-star magic 'Spirit Fox: Sin-Eater.']
…
Among the four items obtained from the non-guaranteed pulls, aside from the Spirit Fox: Sin-Eater skill book, the remaining three were barely usable.
Especially 'Wolf's Gravestone,' which was very suitable for taking on certain large-sized bosses.
However, to unleash its maximum power, he would clearly need to master a two-handed swordsmanship style.
In his inventory, 70,000 Valis were consumed one after another, and in their place, a brand new skill appeared on his status panel:
[Favonius Bladework · Two-Handed Greatsword · 3-Star (Beginner 1%+): Preliminary mastery of the two-handed greatsword version of Favonius Bladework techniques.]
After learning the new skill, Levi took out the Vision that had been converted back to Cryo element and sequentially applied the six Pristina Nola constellations to it:
[Vision (Pristina Nola · C6 Enhancement) · 5-Star (Bound)]
[Indestructible]
[Cryo Element: 0/500]
[Actively converts one's own magic power or passively converts ambient magic power into stored Cryo element]
[Consumes Cryo element to convert normal attacks into Cryo-attribute attacks]
[Consumes Cryo element to slowly increase ability scores]
[Inherent Magic:]
[Combat Skill · Adeptal Art: Herald of Frost · 5-Star: Consumes 50 Cryo element to summon a 'Herald of Frost' that orbits the user, automatically attacks hostile targets, and provides self-healing. While the Herald is active, hitting a target restores the user's health, with recovery efficiency proportional to the Strength ability score.]
[Burst · Adeptal Art: Preserver of Fortune · 6-Star: Consumes 200 Cryo element to deal Cryo damage to nearby enemies and implant a 'Fortune-Preserving Talisman' made of condensed Cryo element within them. When allied units attack an enemy bearing the 'Fortune-Preserving Talisman,' they will restore health proportional to the Vision holder's Strength ability score.]
[C1 Enhancement: When the Herald of Frost hits an enemy marked by a Fortune-Preserving Talisman, the Vision restores 2% of its maximum Cryo element.]
[C2 Enhancement: When attacking an enemy affected by Cryo, Strength is greatly increased.]
[C3 Enhancement: Each attack has a 50% chance to implant a 'Fortune-Preserving Talisman' in the enemy.]
[C4 Enhancement: Hostile targets bearing a 'Fortune-Preserving Talisman' have their Strength greatly reduced.]
[C5 Enhancement: While under the effect of Adeptal Art: Herald of Frost, incoming healing is greatly increased.]
[C6 Enhancement: When casting Adeptal Art: Preserver of Fortune, grant self and all units marked as teammates the 'Limb Regeneration' effect.]
