Time slipped away quietly, and in the blink of an eye, another week had passed.
During this period of time, apart from occasionally helping Kamiyo enter some fixed ancient ruins in the desert to look for some strange things, Kaede Sato had been staying in the station to train his Wisps.
As the Wisps he used as Pikachu and his other Wisps increased in level and gradually mastered more moves, Kaede Sato also began to consciously develop some new skill combinations based on the characteristics of these Wisps.
Although time was a little short, after concentrating for a few days, he really did gain some results.
However, only the Wisps that could successfully develop some skill combinations were Pikachu, the Gem Starfish, and the Yongira.
Pikachu's skill combination was relatively simple, which was the combination of Iron Head and Volt attack. This was a combination of steel and electricity, and could be said to be the strongest attack that Pikachu had mastered so far.
However, this skill combination was not originally intended to increase the power of the move. Pikachu had the Mutated Thunderbolt Bead, a lightning treasure, and did not lack in damage output. However, its weakness was very obvious, and that was that it was very fragile.
Once Pikachu was attacked by the opponent at close range, it would be very easy for the opponent to kill it in an instant.
Moreover, Pikachu's previous favorite long-range attack moves were Hundred Thousand Volt, Thunder, and Awakening Strength – Ice. Physical attack moves like Iron Tail and Iron Head were somewhat lacking in power because they could not trigger the charging effect, and were difficult to deal with enemies at close range.
At present, the only close range lightning attack that Pikachu could use to kill the enemy was Volt attack. It could trigger the charging effect of the Mutated Thunderbolt Bead on Pikachu, and its real power was at the level of Pikachu's Thunder.
It was a pity that this move, which had a power of 120, was a move that could kill a thousand enemies but also hurt eight hundred of its own. After Pikachu finished using this move, it was about time for him to leave the stage.
Therefore, Kaede Sato began to think about how to give Pikachu a temporary ability similar to Hard Head, so that he did not have to worry about repulsion. In the end, he thought of Iron Head, a Steel move.
The way to use Iron Head was to let the fairy cover her forehead with steel energy, making her forehead as hard as steel for a short period of time. Then, the fairy would use her head as a hammer to fight the enemy.
The huge reaction force from Volt's attack was naturally not something that could be resolved by a temporary hardening of the forehead. However, there was no doubt that a temporary hardening of the forehead could withstand a stronger impact, which greatly weakened the reaction force of Volt's attack.
In order to allow Pikachu to expand the coverage of Iron Head to the entire head, and thus weaken the reaction force of Volt's attack to the greatest extent, Kaede Sato did not hesitate to pay a price (two mid-grade fire stones) in exchange for a small bottle of diluted metal film solution from a Steel Fairy in the encampment.
The metal film was also known as the metal coating. It was a special liquid that contained rich steel energy. The Wisp only needed to apply a little of this special liquid to be able to easily sense the natural steel energy. It was one of the most effective tools the Wisp used to train her steel skills.
If Fairies like the Big Rock Snake and the Flying Mantis wanted to evolve, they would need to obtain enough metal film and then apply it all over their bodies.
Otherwise, the Big Rock Snake could only rely on geothermal heat and various metals in its body to complete its evolution over a long period of time, while the Flying Mantis could only dream of evolving in its lifetime.
Pikachu had paid a heavy price in the process of practicing the Iron Head technique. Because his head had been stained with the diluted metal film solution and he had been using the Iron Head technique non-stop, although he had become stronger, his head had become bald.
Because of this, Pikachu had been upset for a few days and had been arguing with Kaede Sato. In the end, Kaede Sato gave him his favorite hat and bought him his favorite version of hot and sour beef noodles when he returned to the city. Only then did he coax him to continue training Iron Head.
Now, after arduous training, Pikachu had successfully covered half of his head with Iron Head, and the huge reaction force of Volt's attack had been weakened by at least 60%.
Kaede Sato was very satisfied with this. Pikachu's temporary hardening effect through Iron Head had reduced the reaction force of Volt's attack by 60%. This was enough for Pikachu to use Volt's full strength several times. If he had not used it once, he would have been defeated.
In the end, Kaede Sato named this skill combination technique 'Thunder Head Hammer'.
The skill combination technique learned by the Gem Starfish was a bit more complicated. Kaede Sato let it learn the combination of Light Wall and Reflection Wall. Both of these skills belonged to the Esper category. The former weakened the enemy's special attack damage, while the latter weakened the enemy's physical attack damage.
Moreover, the effects of these two skills could also be transferred to its companions. It could be said that these two skills were very practical.
However, Kaede Sato knew that these two skills were far from being as simple as imagined. Once they were combined, they would form a very powerful defensive skill.
In the Special Chapter, the Esper Elf Daioqisi, who came from outer space, was able to perfectly combine these two skills to form a super strong defensive shield. The strength of the shield was not inferior to the energy shield formed by defense.
In fact, it wasn't just Daioqisi. Rogia, the Esper Mythological Beast, also used this skill when fighting against the Triad Divine Birds. With this skill, he resisted the combined attacks of the Triad Divine Birds many times.
Kaede Sato remembered that in the movie version, he used this skill combination technique to resist the Flying Mantis attack of the Elf Hunter.
Kaede Sato had a very deep impression of this skill. Naturally, he hoped that his Elf could learn this skill combination technique.
However, the prerequisite for this skill was that the Elf had to learn both Light Wall and Reflection Wall at the same time. Moreover, it seemed that the requirement for Spiritual Strength was relatively high.
Kaede Sato estimated that this skill combination technique could only be used by Esper Elves. Even if other Elves learned both Light Wall and Reflection Wall at the same time, they still wouldn't be able to use this skill combination technique.
Practice had proven that this skill combination technique was indeed very taxing on Spiritual Strength.
The Gem Starfish was already exhausted from using both Light Wall and Reflection Wall at the same time. If he wanted to combine the two together, he must have very delicate Spiritual Strength control skills.
In the end, it was Yongira, a Esper Elf whose Spiritual Strength was stronger than Kaede Sato's (Yongira's IQ was very high, far higher than that of humans), and he also guided the Gem Starfish. Only then did the Gem Starfish succeed in using this skill combination technique.
At the same time, while Yongira was guiding the Gem Starfish, he also learned the Light Wall technique from the Gem Starfish, and also learned this skill combination technique.
When the Light Wall and Reflection Wall were combined, they would form a milky white energy shield. This energy shield was very strong, and even Pikachu's 100,000 volts couldn't break it in a short time.
However, after communicating with the Gem Starfish telepathically, Kaede Sato knew the flaw of this energy shield, which was that it consumed a lot of Spiritual Strength. Just maintaining it alone required 20 Spiritual Strength points per second, and using it once consumed 100 Spiritual Strength points.
Kaede Sato saw the flaw of this skill combination technique. He finally realized why only Esper Mythical Beasts could use it freely. It was because they had enough Mana.
Kaede Sato decided to name this energy-consuming skill combination technique, Spiritual Strength Shield.
