Ciel's gaze fell on this Silver-Tier reward information. He initially thought this reward from mature Piranha Algae should be Silver-Tier Water Affinity. But what t his eyes was different text.
[Underwater Enhancent (Silver Tier)]
This left Ciel feeling uncertain and surprised. Not affinity, but enhancent?
However, just from the reward na, affinity seed considerably inferior to enhancent. The forr only allowed Ciel to move freely in water. But the latter was a solid improvent in strength.
However, without personally experiencing its effects, Ciel couldn't make hasty judgnts. Therefore, after a mont, Ciel made a decision.
This mutated Piranha Algae wouldn't be maximized for profit. Rather than waiting for it to mature, he would harvest its rewards now. Even if harvesting now ant the reward level couldn't reach Silver Tier—at most barely entering Bronze Tier—at least it would let Ciel know what this ability could actually bring him.
He didn't want to wait a long ti only to discover that the ability he had high hopes for was completely different from what he expected. This was also a hard-learned lesson from his past years.
Then Ciel looked at this Piranha Algae and reached toward the reward orb floating above it. The next mont, the reward orb obediently rged into Ciel's body.
A line of notification also appeared on the system panel.
[You have successfully cultivated Piranha Algae (post-mutation)]
[You gained reward—Minor Cutting Spell Enhancent (Black Iron Tier)]
[You gained reward—Underwater Enhancent (Bronze Tier)]
Then these two pieces of information appeared in Ciel's abilities column. However, one of these abilities flickered with Black Iron luster so dim it was almost nonexistent. The other's Bronze luster was also extrely dim.
Obviously, both had barely reached their respective tiers. Compared to the rewards that could be harvested after cultivating Piranha Algae to maturity, the difference was too great! But to verify the abilities' effects, a little waste was acceptable.
Ciel dismissed the distracting thoughts in his mind and focused his attention on perceiving the abilities.
"So, first is the Cutting Spell Enhancent ability."
Ciel narrowed his eyes. He waved his wand to trace a triangle, then flicked his wrist upward like scissors opening and closing.
"Arbor Siccus!"
A Pruning Charm imdiately fell toward a dead branch in his sight.
Snap!
The dead branch was cleanly cut into two pieces by the Pruning Charm.
Ciel's eyes lit up, showing pleasant surprise. His mastery of the Pruning Charm had long reached Silver Tier. Plus, during this recent period of daily visits to the abandoned warehouse to trim brooms, he wasn't far from Gold Tier.
After thousands upon thousands of castings, the Pruning Charm had beco almost instinctive for Ciel. He could detect any subtle differences.
And just now, Ciel had noticed it. Excluding the improvent in his magical perception, the Pruning Charm's mastery hadn't changed, but its effectiveness had increased slightly compared to before.
This ant Cutting Spell Enhancent had taken effect on the Pruning Charm. Just reaching Black Iron Tier already had this enhancent effect. Ciel was quite satisfied with this.
If he could build up this ability's level, the enhancent effect would be even more considerable. Moreover, this wasn't an enhancent for a single spell, but for an entire category of spells. This cost-effectiveness was ridiculously high.
It could be said that this ability alone made Ciel feel that cultivating Piranha Algae was absolutely imperative.
Then his gaze fell on Underwater Enhancent, which emanated Bronze luster.
"Verifying this ability definitely requires being in water. I just don't know if I need to be completely subrged underwater, or if just having part of my body in water would work?"
Ciel found a water tank large enough to subrge him and filled it with water. Supporting himself on the tank's edge, he gradually lowered his body into it.
Ankles, calves, thighs, chest... More and more parts were subrged. But Ciel still didn't feel the so-called Underwater Enhancent taking effect.
Then he took a deep breath and completely subrged himself in the water tank. With his legendary vitality, as long as he didn't exercise vigorously underwater, this one breath would sustain him for quite a while.
And just as Ciel's head also subrged in water, a strange sensation suddenly spread through him. He felt no stuffiness or discomfort from being subrged in water. Instead, he felt an unprecedented sense of wonder.
It was as if there was a force in the water continuously enhancing him. Although the Bronze-Tier enhancent's amplification of Ciel's legendary strength and legendary vitality was so weak it could be ignored, the Underwater Enhancent ability seed to truly encompass all aspects.
Even Ciel's mind beca several degrees clearer.
A thought flashed through his mind. "I wonder if this ability can also enhance my magical strength and even magical perception?"
Then Ciel carefully sensed the magic flowing within his body. The next mont, his eyes widened dramatically.
Magical perception and magical strength were indeed both enhanced! Especially magical strength, which hadn't been improved so far—the effect was quite remarkable.
Ciel's eyes burst with brilliance. Underwater Enhancent could affect both his magical perception and strength—this was trendously useful for him. This ant that as long as he was in water, his magical talent could directly rise a tier!
If this ability could be built up to Legendary Tier, the amplification for Ciel would be absolutely unimaginable.
The only pity was that although the Frequency Charm had a strong promoting effect on Piranha Algae growth, the Piranha Algae after mutation were simply insatiable black holes, constantly craving Frequency Charm illumination.
Calculating this way, the maturation ti for Piranha Algae after mutation would actually be longer than before mutation.
However, this regretful thought only flashed through Ciel's mind for an instant. Then he shook his head.
"Plants that can provide Silver-Tier rewards—I've only encountered Guardian Trees and Blood Jade before. Both are still quite distant from currently. If I hadn't learned the Frequency Charm this ti and stubbornly tried it on Piranha Algae, I probably would have had to wait another half year before being able to cultivate plants of this level."
He smiled with satisfaction. "This is already a huge profit—I can't be too greedy."
At this mont, Ciel suddenly had a thought.
"Hmm? Guardian Tree?"
His eyes lit up with new possibility. "Last ti when I was processing Guardian Tree seeds, I failed at that step because my magical perception wasn't sufficient. But at that ti, I could already see so glimr of success."
Excitent began building in his voice. "Now my magical perception has improved trendously, plus I have Underwater Enhancent. Processing Guardian Tree seeds... perhaps it's worth a try?"
