I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything

Darkness completely enveloped the passages, Fein and others proceeded cautiously, they threaded the passage with vigilance as if ready to react when something goes wrong.

The four already knew the danger that they might encounter here after experiencing the sinisterness of grey moss.

"Don't panic when something goes wrong... but be ready for the worst-case scenario. Venturing to ruins and strange places like this has a certain degree of risk." Fein reminded the others behind his back.

Sofia knew that Fein was knowledgeable about these things, so she doesn't have a say. She only found it strange that Fein manage to know all these things that only a few people would know.

The four continued to walk, Fein became more and more certain of his guess as they proceeded. The walls have weird balls of light stuck to them, these lights provided them a clear picture of where they were going. Fein was wary, because who might know that there might suddenly be projectiles that would emerge and attack them like in the films in his past life?

Sofia saw that on the ground, there were strange words that she couldn't understand. "Look, there is something written on the ground. Do you understand what they are?"

Seeing the incomprehensible word on the ground, Fein tried to recall all the knowledge that he accumulated to see if there was something related to it. Then, he shook his head, because he didn't find anything. So, he was also helpless.

"These things should be the language of the Civilization that left the inheritance here, and yeah I am now certain that we are in Underground Temple."

Fein pointed at the distance, the four looked at the far away blocks of stone, with their enhanced vision, they saw that in the middle of it was a brown temple with two guardian stones made of gold beside the entrance.

"Wow, even the statues are made of gold, it should be once a powerful civilization!" Sofia gasped and looked at the temple with shining eyes.

"It seems we lucked out" Fein chuckled while patting Voli beside him. "But, I don't believe that there's no trap to it, so prepare yourself."

After saying this, Fein quickly entered "Chess Perception".

'These are the time that traps and challenges would come, I don't believe that they would let the outsiders easily. If not, they wouldn't have planted those strange mosses in the first place.'

'It seems the inheritance that they place in here should be valuable.' Fein kept analyzing, he was getting excited about what they would gain this time. He wants to obtain treasure or artifacts to help increase his battle strength comprehensively.

"I will go first" Fein smirked.

Sofia condensed her body armor with a matching shield made of her blood manipulation. If one looks closely, you would see faint traces of dark mist seeping out from the condensed equipment.

Fein shouted in surprise after seeing this.

"You can already use your dark energy even without activating the dark domain!?"

Sofia felt proud after seeing her boy fr- Ehem... Fein's surprise.

She smiled and nodded.

"You're not the only one working hard, I've practiced this during the idle time and now I can finally use them a little bit. I'm trying to improve so I can use my dark energy even without having to activate my domain ability, even 50% efficiency is enough for me."

Fein felt gratified that she was improving quickly by his side. It seems he has a charm that makes others give their best.

'Am I really that charismatic?

Fein chuckled at his presumptuous thought.

"Congratulations, If you want help in training, don't be shy, I would do my best to help you. I'm quite confident in my talent formulating ability." Fein said sincerely.

As a Doctor and Accomplished Scientist, he has an accurate knowledge of the human body and physics. Plus, he has already had a lot of experience because of training himself.

"Okay..." Sofia believed him.

The four of them were getting nearer and nearer to the temple, the wall on the side suddenly shook, and countless metal spikes covered with green liquid emerged at an unbelievable speed. Fein easily dodges them using his keen instinct. But as he looked back he saw Voli got wounded after three spikes had hit him. Voli's weakness is his speed.

'Damn, these metal spikes are quite sharp'

He knew the best how tough Voli's defense was... So, seeing the metal spike successfully injured him, he knew things weren't simple this time.

Voli grunted in pain after three sharp spikes manage to hit him, then he saw another four spikes coming on top of his head. As Voli can't use his wind power as the environment lacked the conditions. The spikes were three inches to his head when a blood-red shield came in front of him fending the four spikes.

Sofia smiled, "I would help you"

Voli looked gratefully at Sofia and whimpered with a strange sound as if he was saying something.

The four of them continue with a steady pace while dodging the metal spikes.

Aoi would create ice walls to slow down the metal spike from time to time, while Sofia was using his blood manipulation to continuously produce defensive equipment that kept being scrapped by the metal spikes. Fein on the other hand used his speed to determine the locations of dangers in advance to warn his friend, he would use his sword from time to time to help his friends when a metal spike manage to bypass their formation.

As time passes, the metal spikes are increasing in numbers, the speed kept getting faster.

"If this continues we would be beaten into a sieve, gave it you're all now!" Fein saw that they are near to temple and shouted.

Voli was frustrated because he was dragging the team down, lightning condense on his feet as he became angrier with himself, so he quickly thinks a move that would save them from the current circumstances with his little head. lightning kept flickering on his feet, but it would also be extinguished instantly after. Voli kept trying only to fail, but he kept doing it.

Fein noticed this. 'Hmmm, trying to create a new move huh? not bad'

Suddenly all the metal spikes accelerated, and the speed tripled... all of them were caught off guard, even with Fein using "Flashing Dash" he knew that he would barely be able to save himself even with his speed, but his friends would suffer because of they don't have the same reaction speed and talent in evading like him.

'What to do!?' Fein was panicking inside as he was trying to think of a way as he usually does.
