Overgeared Chapter 399:
Chapter 399
“Grid? Certainly, he has grown. I was impressed when I saw the Eternal Kingdom war video."
The strongest nation in Satisfy, the USA.
Thousands of people gathered at a press conference for Zibal. The theme of the interview was the 2nd National Competition. However, most of the questions were about Grid.
"In the past, Grid played while relying on his items, skills, and stats. Now he has combined it with moderate control skills. Considering his talents, I guess it's a result of his efforts. I admire his efforts."
“You described Grid's control as 'moderate.' Are you saying that it isn't at an amazing level?"
"Well… Isn't it good enough from the public's point of view?"
“Then he hasn't reached the level of high rankers yet. It's said that Grid's power will be weakened in the National Competition due to the patch. How do you see it?"
“I also have the same opinion. If it wasn't for Grid's items and stats… He will be very ordinary."
“I have a question about that. Is Grid really weak? If his damage has been halved, can't Grid overwhelm the opponent in two blows instead of one?"
The reporter's question caused all the people in the room to laugh, including Zibal. The reporter's question was very rudimentary. Zibal stopped laughing and opened his mouth.
"Satisfy's stats aren't just attack power and health. Isn't there also the concept of defense? For example, let's say my defense is 100 and Grid's attack power is 1,000. How much damage will I get if I am attacked by Grid?"
"…Isn't it 900?"
The old and retired reporter didn't know much about Satisfy. He was out of date, and in fact, he hadn't even been intending to attend this press conference. But a sudden mishap occurred and he attended on behalf of his junior.
Zibal saw that he was a layman and kindly explained.
"No, that isn't it. A formula is applied to defense. First of all, besides the defense that can be found in the stats window, every class has a unique resistance that is additionally added to defense to reduce the enemy damage."
"In other words, this patch will reduce Grid's attack power by more than 50%?"
"That's right."
"Then isn't this patch fatal to other players with low attack power, not just Grid? How will you cause damage to each other?"
The reporter continued to ask basic questions. Zibal shook his head and pointed to his head and heart.
“It is to attack the enemy's weak points. Be faster and more accurate."
But Grid didn't have that type of skill. The old reporter finally understood and sat down to take notes. Other reporters' questions followed.
“Now that Grid's influence in PvP has weakened, what is your prediction for South Korea's overall ranking?"
"22nd? As you know, there isn't any other talent in South Korea besides Yura. There will be a limit to her alone."
“What about Peak Sword?"
"Of course, Peak Sword is excellent. But his attack mode is one strike. It's very powerful, but the delay after each attack is long. He's also one of the victims of this patch. South Korea is tragic in many ways."
“What about Russia and Kraugel?"
"Russia has some great participants and Kraugel is the only competitor I admire… They can easily enter the top 10."
"What about the host, France?"
"They can get at least in the top 5."
“The United States?”
"Of course, we will be 1st. As always, in all areas."
***
Beijing, China.
“Hao. You didn't participate in the 1st National Competition held in South Korea last year. Because of that, China was forced to stay in 7th place. The reason you expressed your intention to participate in this National Competition is to sooth the disappointment of our Chinese people, right?"
Hao kept his 16th ranking despite the Overgeared members causing a cataclysm in the unified rankings. The miracle of their country was known as a genius of fighting. Whether it was a solo exhibition or team play, he boasted overwhelming stats in PvP.
Last year, Hao's vacancy was huge for China, who couldn't achieve remarkable results in PvP related events. He felt cynical towards the reporters' questions.
'I want to say that it has no relation to the hearts of the people.'
Hao was a Chinese person, so he knew them well. If he made a slip of the tongue, he could be kidnapped one day.
Hao took a deep breath and nodded.
"That's correct. Last year, I didn't participate in the National Competition due to personal circumstances and deeply regretted it. I swear before the spirit of the great Mao Zedong and China, I will lead our country to victory in this National Competition."
"Last year, Grid and South Korea interfered with China and rose to the 3rd spot. Now that Grid has been nerfed, will you be able to repay the past disgrace?"
'Grid…'
According to Lauel, Grid was someone beyond Kraugel. He would dismiss it as nonsense, but Lauel wasn't someone to exaggerate. It was clear that Grid had something.
'I can't say anything good.'
Hao looked around the room. The reporters were staring with expectations in their eyes. Hao sighed and eventually opened his mouth.
“Whether Grid is nerfed or not, he wasn't my opponent in the first place."
"Ohh!!"
The reporters got the answer they wanted. It was natural for the people of a great country to win over those of a small country.
Snap!
Snap snap!
Hao's remarks were written on Internet articles as photos were taken of him. Meanwhile, Hao sipped his cold water.
'It isn't a lie.'
The only one better than him was Kraugel. Hao had a high evaluation of his own skills. It was because he was able to tie up the feet of several Overgeared members alone during the Reidan invasion.
***
Paris. France.
"Bondre, you experienced a humiliating defeat after being logged out by Grid in just 4 seconds. Did that incident cause trauma? Will you be able to participate well in the National Competition?"
France was a strong favorite in the 1st National Competition. Surprisingly, many experts analyzed that France would win over the United States. But France's greatest player, Bondre, was torn apart by Grid and everything became a tangled mess. France narrowly settled for second place.
Bondre scoffed at the reporters' malicious question and made a scathing remark.
“Trauma? That's something that will happen to hyenas like you. I am a beast of prey. I will never shrink back."
"Your confidence is good. But isn't this patch fatal for you? Your Absolute Zero won't be able to function properly."
France was the host country of the 2nd National Competition. As the host country, the entire nation was hoping for them to win. But the public didn't trust Bondre. Bondre ridiculed the reporter's question.
“You still think that Absolute Zero is my only skill?"
"…?"
"A year has passed since the first National Competition. In the meantime, I have learned many powerful spells. In the first place, an ice mystic specializes in defense and utility rather than high attack power. This patch is just giving me wings.”
Bondre was so angry that he spoke in informal language. He declared to the dozens of media outlets gathered in this place, “Those uncivilized Koreans who eat dog meat, I will shatter them. Then your attitude towards me will change. I will lead France to victory."
***
Ottawa, Canada.
3rd ranked Chris was also holding a press conference.
“Last year, Canada was one of the strong candidates to win the National Competition. But we had to experience the shocking result of not being able to enter the top 3."
“This year, the country is hoping for a different result. Chris, do you have the confidence to revive people's expectations?"
Please provide a satisfying answer. Chris read the words in the reporters' eyes and bowed his head.
“Last year, I was helpless. I lost to Zibal in the boss raid, was defeated by Bondre in the labyrinth breakthrough, and was defeated by Regas in PvP. I want to borrow this place to once again apologize."
In fact, Chris shouldn't have to apologize. Last year, Chris was very cool. He won the silver medal in the boss raid and labyrinth breakthrough, and reached the quarter-finals in PvP. That's right. Chris struggled against the best players of the world alone.
“Lift your head!”
“You're our hero!"
The reporters cried out, causing Chris to slowly raise his head. Then he smiled at them.
“I will try to show a better performance this year. I am confident of winning against all opponents except for Kraugel and Grid."
"G-Grid?"
The reporters were startled. Wasn't Grid a victim of the patch? At this moment, rankers and experts from all over the world were evaluating that Grid would find it hard to play a big role in the National Competition. Why did Chris see Grid as superior to him?
‘Chris is also a victim of the patch, but…'
'Chris has much higher skills when it comes to the greatsword. He is different from Grid.'
Chris laughed at the reporters faces.
'I can't easily beat Grid, who competed with the crazy farmer for a long time.'
The world didn't know Grid's true value. Chris couldn't comprehend the public opinion, who ridiculed Grid despite all his achievements just because of his normal control. Of course, this didn't mean Chris was already obsessed with defeat.
Grid and Kraugel. Both men weren't easy to beat, but Chris didn't think there was no chance at all. This was the pride of the 3rd ranked user.

Chapter 400
Japan, Tokyo.
Yoshimura exclaimed under a splendid chandelier in the press conference room.
“Yoshimura will make Japan the most powerful Asian country!"
Among the Japanese, Yoshimura was known as the 'Defeated General.' His fight against the Korean Silver Knights Guild for Cork Island was a disaster. Then he was defeated by Damian, who was considered a traitor from the right side extremists.
Yoshimura had once been the 2nd ranked archer, but now his peak was over. Nevertheless, the Japanese still trusted Yoshimura. Yoshimura's achievements in the past were so great that there were still a lot of expectations. Unfortunately, Japan didn't have as many talented people as Yoshimura.
"Ohhhh!"
"It truly is Yoshimura!"
The reporters applauded at Yoshimura's flamboyant appearance. But they didn't ask any questions because there was no big interest. The reporters were interested in Damian and Katz who were sitting to Yoshimura's left and right.
"Hum hum."
Yoshimura felt ashamed and sat down. The reporters first questioned Katz, who hadn't appeared in public for a long time.
“Katz, I'm looking forward to seeing you after a long time. What have you been doing this whole time?"
"Bah, what a stupid question. Can't you tell by looking at the list of rankers? I have been raising my level."
Katz was the son of one of the largest conglomerates in Japan. He grew up with everything since childhood, causing him to become arrogant. Due to that, he had a lot of anti-fans around the world. But the Japanese didn't hate Katz.
The reason was simple. Katz was one of Japan's few hopes.
The third epic hidden class. Blood Warrior Katz, he dreamt of becoming the 1st ranked user and only focused on hunting for the past year and a half.
"That reminds me, you reached 19th on the unified rankings two weeks ago. At that time, all of the Japanese media outlets reported on Katz' news."
"You must be happy to be the first Japanese person ranked in the top 20."
“…"
The reporters praised him, but Katz was offended. It was embarrassing. A year and a half ago. He declared to the world that he would take the first position in six months, but he hadn't even entered the single digits yet. This caused Katz to go crazy.
19th out of two billion users. It was certainly a huge achievement, but Katz' pride was too high. Katz wasn't satisfied at all.
"What events do you plan to participate in this time?"
"I haven't decided yet."
“What are you expecting Japan's ranking to be?"
"How should I know?"
“…"
Based on Katz' attitude, it seemed unreasonable to ask him any more questions. The reporters were satisfied that photos and videos were taken of Katz and turned their eyes to Damian.
"The pope is known to have a special relationship with Grid. Will you be able to face Grid as an enemy in the National Competition?"
It was a question with hidden meanings. Damian chose Grid over his country. Would he be able to face Grid as an enemy in the National Competition? As Yoshimura felt tense and Katz indifferent, Damian declared with a proud expression.
“I know how to distinguish between the two. In the National Competition, Grid is naturally my enemy."
"Ohh…!"
The questions from the reporters poured out.
“What sort of events will you participate in?"
“Any combat related events are okay."
“Does this mean you have confidence in battle?"
“Of course. I am really big."
“What are you expecting Japan's ranking to be?"
"Hrmm." Damian glanced sideways at Katz. “At least in the top 10?"
"Ohhh!"
Being in the top 10 out of 32 countries wasn't low. It was likely to be the highest rank among the Asian countries. Damian, who had responded coldly to requests for cooperation from the right-wing groups, was now speaking favorably about Japan, causing the reporters to feel excited.
They were once again glad that a powerful presence like the pope was a Japanese. But some right-wing media groups questioned Damian.
"Is there still no play to build a Rebecca Temple in the territories that the Japanese Guilds rule over?"
“How about giving healers from the Rebecca Church as support for Japanese rankers?"
Questions not related to the National Competition started to pour out. Damian was silent. He couldn't understand the psychology of the extreme right-wingers who wanted one-sided help just because he was Japanese.
“Tsk, I am building a temple in Reidan."
“You really must be a Korean."
The moment that the right-wing reporters made the atmosphere uncomfortable.
"What do you think about this balance patch?"
One young reporter asked a new question that reversed the mood. Damian's answer was enough to excite the Japanese people watching the press conference broadcast.
“It's a patch to benefit me."
Damian had strong defense, recovery skills, and phenomenal buff skills. What person could damage him with this patch?
“At least in the National Competition, I am invincible."
“Waaaaahhhhh!”
Japan was overturned. The expectations of Japanese people towards Damian skyrocketed. The Internet speculated that perhaps Damian could win three gold medals in the National Competition. However, Damian poured cold water on them.
“Well, as long as I don't go against Grid."
“…"
Why? Why did Damian praise Grid so much? The Japanese people didn't know the details about the relationship between Grid and Damian, so they questioned it. More people wondered if Damian was actually a Korean.
***
Moscow, Russia.
The press conference held for the participants of the 2nd National Competition.
“…"
In the end, Kraugel didn't attend.
***
Seoul, South Korea.
“Zibal doesn't know anything. If he meets God Grid in the same event, he will eventually have to give God Grid the gold medal."
Kang Daehan of the Korean Patriotic Association. His ID was Peak Sword in Satisfy and he was sitting in front of hundreds of reporters.
"And Hao? He doesn't seem Chinese with how rude he is. Whether God Grid is nerfed or not, he is no match for God Grid."
"Excuse me… Kang Daehan, why didn't Yura and Youngwoo attend this interview…?"
"Also!"
Peak Sword didn't answer the reporters' questions. It was only 17 days until the National Competition. There was only one reason why Peak Sword attended this press conference despite being busy. It was to refute the words of rankers around the world.
Kung!
Peak Sword slammed his hand on the table and shouted.
"Bondre, the French person who called Koreans uncivilized because we eat dog meat! The French eat foie gras, which is far more atrocious! A pot calling the kettle black. Bondre, I will make you feel ashamed, so be prepared! Understood? Hooray South Korea!"
“…"
It was the moment when the National Competition's press conference was turned into a Korean Patriotic Association meeting. The reporters thought it was silly, but also nice to have a character like Peak Sword in South Korea. He made them feel much better.
***
As the whole world was paying attention to the 2nd National Competition, Grid was still wandering the labyrinth.
[You have killed a cavalry knight.]
[16,112,300 experience has been acquired.]
'Heok… Heok… Wow, I'm going crazy."
He had spent a fortnight of Satisfy time trapped in the labyrinth. It was hard to keep moving through the dark labyrinth without knowing how much was left until the exit.
'It might be different if the monsters are weak.'
The monster that appeared in the labyrinth were between level 400~420.
It took Grid at least three minutes to hunt one. The monsters were strong. Allowing one attack would decrease his health by at least one-fourth. If he met three or more monsters at once, it was hard to deal with them without relying on his immortality passive.
'If it wasn't for the immortal passive, I would've died and gone back to the 50th island.'
Just imagining it was horrible. Grid gulped and used magic.
[Magic Detection (Enhanced) Lv. 1 (93.1%)]
-The cooldown time is 4 minutes and 42 seconds-
'Sigh…'
After entering the labyrinth, the newly acquired skill was almost at level 2. It was catching up with the level of Magic Missile. It showed how many times Grid had used Magic Detection, and how long he had travelled. Yet he still couldn't find the exit…
Grid sighed and sat down. He would try and use Meditation to recover his health, mana, and stamina while waiting for the cooldown time of Magic Detection to end. But it was difficult to use Meditation since he needed the utmost concentration.
Grid was able to succeed in Meditation after two minutes.
[Entering a meditative state.]
[Increases health and mana regeneration rate by 50%, and stamina regeneration by 30%.]
[Skill cooldown time will be reduced by 10%.]
‘Not bad.’
At first, it took him more than five minutes to succeed in Meditation. Grid was fairly satisfied with the current speed of Meditation while thinking back to that time.
'The level of the God Hands' Sword Mastery has gone up by quite a lot.'
Grid had certainly improved when compared to before he entered the Behen Archipelago. He was proud that he didn't walk on this path in vain. However…
‘When can I escape this labyrinth?'
He wanted to at least clear it before the National Competition began. Come to think of it, he should be able to use Magic Detection again. Grid got up and approached the three paths in front of him.
'Magic Detection.'
Pahat!
Mana poured out as Grid tried to find life in one of the paths. However.
'Eh?'
No signs of life were detected anywhere. This was the first time.
'What am I supposed to do?'
According to Braham's advice, the closer he was to the exit of the labyrinth, the bigger the risk. But all three paths had no danger, so Grid couldn't help feeling confused.
'Should I ask Braham for help again?'
He already relied on Assimilation when he faced a big crisis three days ago. If he waited for the cooldown of Assimilation to return, wouldn't he need to wait at least six more days here? It was too big of a waste of time.
'In the first place…'
He felt like he degenerated every time he depended on Braham.
'Yes, haven't I been doing it all by myself so far?'
How could he overcome this situation? Grid took a deep breath and focused his mind to the limits. Then he discovered an answer.
'Perhaps?'
So far, monsters were waiting on all the paths he took…
'Maybe I have already passed the labyrinth?'
It was possible that the exit was right in front of him. However, he couldn't go back after stepping on a new path, so he was terrified.
'It will produce a much more valuable result than staying here.'
If his thoughts were wrong and he fell into a new labyrinth, he would just need to find the way out again. Grid raised all his courage and took the path in the middle.
At that moment.
[You have succeeded in breaking through the labyrinth!]
[You have acquired 2,150 challenger points for the mission success.]
[You have entered Treasure Island (the 57th island)!!]
[Escape from Treasure Island in the next three minutes.]
"Ohh…! Ohhhhhh!”
Grid was extremely excited. It was strange not to get excited as the island full of gold and treasures appeared before him.
‘Today's lunch is seafood jajang!'
The moment that Grid decided to summon Noe and Randy to get more treasures.
Visit lnmao.org for extra chapters.
[Fog Island haunts this island.]
Treasure Island was covered with a thick fog.
"Ah."
Grid shed tears. They were deep tears of regret.
OG:
Current schedule: 20 chapters a week.
Chapter 401
[Fog Island haunts this island.]
"Ah…"
Grid had eagerly hoped to encounter Fog Island. It was because he had a lot of challenger points stored that could be exchanged for goods. But why? Why did it appear at this timing?
Flop.
Grid opened his mouth like a carp and sat down listlessly. He howled like a man who lost his country after seeing all the treasures disappearing in the fog.
“Treasure…!! My treasure!!!"
Grid had to go through many trials to reach this 67th island. The clone on the 41st island, the golden crowns, the strong monsters in the 50s islands and the labyrinth he just passed. The degree of difficulty for the Behen Archipelago was atrocious.
How good would it be if Fog Island had appeared in such a difficult area?
'Then I wouldn't have suffered so much…'
The probability of missing a bonus stage like Treasure Island would've fallen dramatically. But reality was a gutter.
“Dammit!”
Grid realized once again. Lady Luck had abandoned him. It was rare for there to be such an unlucky person in the world.
"Damn!"
Grid kept weeping. If it was the Grid of the past, it would've taken him a considerable amount of time to escape from the shock. But now it was different. His spirit recovered fairly quickly.
'…Still, the harder the island, the better the compensation.'
Let's take an extreme example.
What if Fog Island appeared on the 41st island? Grid wouldn't have met the clone and never had the chance to learn Linked Kill Wave and Pinnacle Kill.
'Yes, it's good that it didn't show up on the 40th island.'
Grid developed his thinking skills and thought as positively as possible as he got up.
“It's enough to get what I want."
Grid wiped away his tears and walked through the thick fog. Then after a while, he saw a light. It was the light emitted by the pumpkin-shaped carriage. Grid identified the products on display as he approached the carriage.
'Pass on the hidden classes.'
Fog Island sold a total of 13 hidden classes. The rare classes ranged from 1,000~15,000 challenger points. Currently, Grid had accumulated 31,001 challenger points and could purchase any of the class change books.
However, they didn't catch his attention. Since the emergence of the third advancement classes, the value of the rare hidden classes had fallen. There was no reason to invest points in it.
'Next are the skill books…'
There were a total of 46 skill books listed. The rating went from normal to unique. In particular, several unique rated active skills boasted outstanding abilities. However, Grid was a legend. He had the legendary skills, so there was no reason to be obsessed with unique rated skills.
The mastery skills were the exception.
[Skill Book: Weapons Mastery]
Rating: Normal
Type: Passive
The Weapons Mastery skill is generated.
Price: 6,000 Challenger Points.
Weapons Mastery raised the power of every type of weapon. It was the highest mastery skill.
"I have to learn this."
Of course, Weapons Mastery had its drawbacks. The increase in abilities was small compared to the mastery skills that were specific to one weapon. But Grid didn't care. Weapons Mastery was a skill with fantastic compatibility with Grid, who could use any weapon without restrictions.
'Live!'
Over the past several months, he had worked hard collecting challenger points. Grid consumed 6,000 challenger points without hesitation.
[Skill Book: Weapons Mastery has been acquired.]
“Okay."
Grid was delighted as he confirmed that the skill book had entered his inventory. He was happy that he got the skill he wanted.
“Learn it… Hrmm?"
The reason Grid purchased the skill book wasn't just to look at it. He planned to acquire it immediately without letting it stay in the inventory for too long. Then he stopped moving as a skill book caught his eyes.
'Magic Mastery!'
[Skill Book: Magic Mastery]
Rating: Normal
Type: Passive
The Magic Mastery skill is generated.
Price: 5,000 Challenger Points.
"Ummm…"
Magic Mastery? It increased magic power and shortened casting time. Of course, Magic Mastery wasn't the same as the Weapons Mastery skill that could be learned from a skill book. This was because it needed a magician class to learn.
'Originally, I would have no relation with this skill.'
But thanks to the Behen Archipelago, he had a chance to enter a new realm.
'I can now learn magic from Braham through Assimilation…'
Learning Magic Mastery wouldn't harm him.
'No, this is a skill that must be learned.'
Grid had low intelligence and couldn't master Braham's magic. He could only learn the lowest level of magic. But how could Braham's magic be common? Magic Missile (Enhanced) and Magic Detection (Enhanced) had features that were incomparable to magic of the same type that ordinary magicians had. He had to unconditionally learn Magic Mastery.
'The price is too expensive.'
It cost 5,000 challenger points. He could buy at least 20 elixirs with that. Braham's magic might be powerful, but was it enough to give up 20 elixirs? Grid worried about it for a while before deciding.
'…I will learn it.'
Grid was looking into the future. He would keep levelling up and increasing intelligence. Then someday, he would be able to learn higher level magic from Braham. Grid bought the Magic Mastery skill book.
The result.
Remaining Challenger Points: 20,001
"Ugh…."
Grid had over 30,000 points just a while ago, so he felt pained seeing it fall to 20,000.
But!
'It isn't in vain.'
It was a skill book he purchased in order to become stronger. He shouldn't be sorry. Grid controlled his heart and finally looked at the list of elixirs.
[Strength Elixir]
Permanently increases strength by 10 points.
Price: 250 Challenger Points.
[Stamina Elixir]
Permanently increases stamina by 10 points.
Price: 250 Challenger Points.
[Agility Elixir]
Permanently increases agility by 10 points.
Price: 250 Challenger Points.
[Intelligence Elixir]
Permanently increases intelligence by 10 points.
Price: 250 Challenger Points.
From a common sense of view, the most important stat for a blacksmith was stamina and then strength. However, Grid didn't buy elixirs for those two stats. In the first place, his strength and stamina were high enough.
'Right now, I need agility.'
Piaro had a strength to agility ratio of 1:1 when he was a great swordsman. Grid followed it in a desire to become stronger.
Name: Grid
Level: 306
Class: Pagma's Descendant
Title: One who Became a Legend
Title: …

…
Strength: 2,830 (+160)
Stamina: 1,306 (+230)

…
“I should use all the remaining points to buy agility elixirs."
20,000 points was at least 80 elixirs. It meant he could gain 800 agility at once, which was equal to 80 levels. Grid pressed the purchase button under the agility elixir.
[A consumable item. Please enter the number you want to purchase.]
Grid smiled with satisfaction at the notification window and was about to reply with '80' when he stopped.
'…Is this really right?'
If it was before he fought the clone, Grid wouldn't have hesitated. Now he was different. He could learn magic due to assimilating with Braham's soul, and at the same time, he acquired Magic Mastery. Wasn't it right to invest in intelligence in order to take advantage of this?
'Every time I level up, six points will be put in intelligence.'
If he gained 100 levels, he would only increase intelligence by 600 points. It was questionable if he could even learn Fire Ball before Braham's soul left.
'Yes, don't be nervous and look at the future. I'm not tied to a legend. I will become a myth.'
He should look at the forest, not the trees. Grid took a deep breath as he recalled Lauel's saying and opened his mouth.
"I will buy 40 agility elixirs and 40 intelligence elixirs."
Was being an all-rounder bad? Yes, a common all-rounder stunk. There were many people who weren't strong or weak. But a legendary all-rounder was different. He would be an universal being.
Grid didn't have any doubts as his eyes shone brighter than ever.
***
[You have learned Weapons Mastery.]
[Weapons Mastery Lv. 1]
* When a weapon is equipped, attack power will increase by 2% and attack speed by 1%.
[You have learned Magic Mastery.]
[Magic Mastery Lv. 1]
Increases magic power by 3% and reduces casting time by 1%.
[You have taken the agility elixir.]
[Agility has risen permanently by 400.]
[You have taken the intelligence elixir.]
[Intelligence has risen permanently by 400.]
He gained 800 stat points and two mastery skills at once. Now Grid was much stronger.
"Let's speed up the process."
Grid was full of confidence as he moved through the gate to the 58th island. The 58th island was a time attack type hunting dungeon. Grid was able to clear it within the time limit due to his increased attack and magic power.
At the same time, the level of Weapons Mastery and Magic Mastery rose steadily. The level of the monsters was over 400, but the Mastery skills were only beginner level, so the increase in experience was bound to be large.
Grid was thrilled with his growth.
