The Primal Hunter
Chapter 525
Wings of the Malefic Viper was honestly a bit of a weird skill in Jake’s repertoire when Jake thought about it. Mainly in that he didn’t really need one of its primary functions anymore: the ability to fly. Jake could fly just using mana manipulation already.
This meant the skill now only served as a way to pump out poison mist. It did add a bit of maneuverability while flying, but it was not that major. Jake knew that a lot of the skills Records went into simply summoning the wings in their phantasmal form and adding them to the Soulshape, but that wasn’t exactly something Jake ”needed” either.
Jake still used the wings a lot due to their relatively low upkeep, which meant the only time he really spent resources on them was with the initial summoning and when he pumped out poison. The poison pumped out also wasn’t exactly impressive. It mostly just served as a way to keep his current poison active and the occasional area of effect attack.
Upgrading the poison mist aspect of the skill did not appeal to him either. Besides, if he upgraded his Blood of the Malefic Viper, he would inadvertently also upgrade the mist. There was also the approach of trying to make them more durable or perhaps increase the maneuverability and overall flight speed. There was even the approach of going the same direction as Draskil, where his wings allowed him short-range teleports and speed-ups in battle. His version was clearly one specialized for movement in combat and taking advantage of his existing physical stats. But that wasn’t the direction Jake wanted to take it.
During his vision, where he saw Villy get smacked by Valdemar, he had seen Wings of the Malefic Viper be used as an escape skill to great effect. He had felt how the wings had somehow been activated, and a ”tunnel” of sorts had been formed that allowed him to escape. Jake wanted something like that.
He wanted an escape skill, not necessarily to run from a fight he could not win like Villy had, but to escape situations that rendered him stuck or sealed in some way. Like the skill, Ell’Hakan had used that had seemed to isolate Jake from the rest of the world for its duration.
One Step was already better at long-distance movement anyway. It was a legendary skill specialized in travel, while Wings had so many other aspects. There were some issues with upgrading it, though.
Having already been shown the skill twice, Jake was not sure if he could see it again. It did say that he could only view a vision of a skill once, but did the one he had count? It felt more like that one had been about Fangs of the Malefic Viper rather than Wings.
Nevertheless, Jake tried to use the Path of the Heretic-Chosen skill as he focused on Wings of the Malefic Viper. Not necessarily to use it, but to see if he even could, and to his disappointment, the skill did not activate right way. This left him even more unsure as he still didn’t know if it was because he didn’t fulfill some requirement to see the vision or because he had used his one chance on the skill.
He also tried to reflect on the feeling back during the vision he had before, but it was all too blurry for him to remember. His focus back then had been on Fangs of the Malefic Viper and Fang of Man and not Wings, so even when he had felt the escape technique, his mind had partly been elsewhere.
”You busy?” the worm suddenly asked Jake as he meditated on the issue.
”Only a little,” Jake answered. ”Why do you ask?”
”You said you wanted to hurry, right? The problem is that up ahead is the territory of scorpions, and they like to hide in the sand and attack if we try to go through, so we tend to avoid them. Avoiding them and going around will be slower, though… but if the human is strong, then maybe…” the worm said very leadingly.
”Let me guess, they have a C-grade leader of some kind?”Jake asked.

The C-grades tended to monopolize these according to what the worm had told him, and the only exception was when a treasure was found that would allow another worm to break through to C-grade. Another C-grade among them was far more valuable than the limited growth of one of the existing C-grade worms, and often these treasures didn’t really benefit one already in C-grade that
