“Wow!”
I definitely welcomed higher level hunting grounds than the current one because I could expect to gain higher EXP there, after all.
Did I care about the difficulty level of the new hunting ground?
Absolutely not. It didn’t matter at all because although it was during an event, the system judged that I was suitable to hunt in a level 2700 hunting ground.
And I could hunt well there. So hunting in the new level 1600, level 1700, and level 1800 hunting grounds would be as easy as hunting in this level 1500 hunting ground.
Then, as if the system had more to say, new messages rang out.
[An event to commemorate the new hunting grounds will be held.
-‘Reach the level 1800 hunting ground as soon as possible.’
-If a large number of people reach the level 1800 hunting ground at the same time, the following rules apply.
: 1 point per monster in the level 1500 hunting ground.
: 2 points per monster in the level 1600 hunting ground.
: 3 points per monster in the level 1700 hunting ground.
The one who receives the highest score will win.
-Only the one who deals a final blow to the monsters will receive the points when hunting as a party.]
“Hehehe!”
First of all, when I saw the message that we have to reach the level 1800 hunting ground first, I was a little worried because there were additional requirements to proceed to the next hunting ground other than hunting 10,000 monsters.
In other words, I was subject to the restrictions under which I had to stay connected to Revival Legend to hunt at least 10 hours per day for the next 10 days.
So even if I hunted 10,000 monsters faster than others, I had to stay in the hunting ground for more than 10 days.
Considering my hunting speed, however, such restrictions were very frustrating.
However, if I spent the 10 days productively, I could hunt so many monsters that I would win even if someone else reached the level 1800 hunting ground at the same time as me. And even if they formed a party, my hunting speed was so fast that they still would not be able to surpass me.
What’s more, even if many famous powerful individuals grouped up to form a party, only the person who dealt the final blow to the monsters would score the points.
So I smiled in satisfaction when another message rang last.
[The event ‘Reach the 1800 level hunting ground as soon as possible’ starts tomorrow at 00:00, and the new hunting grounds will be randomly generated in Revival Legend 10 days later.]
After checking the last message, I resumed hunting, as usual.
Since the new hunting grounds would appear 10 days later, all I had to do now was to imprint Titans onto my body.
Of course, there was enough time for me. Besides, I had already achieved more than 60% accumulation rate.
But I had to leave this hunting ground sooner or later, for I would not come back to this place once I gained access to the new level 1800 hunting ground. But after hunting for so long in this hunting ground, I had grown somewhat attached to it.
So I charged at the monsters like crazy as if trying to enjoy my last experience in this hunting ground.
In the level 1500 hunting ground Land of Titan two days later.
Puck! Puck! Bang! Bang!
[Kheeeeeeeeeeek!]
[Khuuuuuuuuuuuk!]
Flop!
Flop!
I quietly watched the monsters collapse screaming because this was my last hunt here.
A message rang as soon as they collapsed.
[You have achieved a 100% accumulation rate for the monster Titan.
:You acquire the traits of Titan.
-You can store up to 3 traits.
: You can imprint the Titan trait onto your body.
-Even if you have multiple traits, you can activate only one of them by imprinting them.
– You need a 30-day cooldown to replace the imprinted trait with another one.]
“Imprint: Titan.”
Since I had only the Titan trait, I immediately proceeded with the imprinting.
[You have imprinted the Titan trait on your body.
-Strength stat points increase by 3000.
-Stamina stat points increase by 3000.
– You acquire rigidity. (Reduces all damage by 10%)]
“Uh?”
First of all, I felt good.
Disregarding the Stamina increase, the increase in Strength by 3000 stat points was obviously incredibly high. And the 10% reduction in all damage must be so attractive to tanks.
But the message that was supposed to ring did not ring.
In other words, it was the message that the increase in stamina stat points by 3000 would not be applied due to my trait Mutual Growth.
As a matter of fact, even when I was rewarded with an increase in all stat points by 1000 for reaching a 100% reality actualization rate faster than anybody else, I heard a message that my stamina and willpower would not increase.
I naturally expected the same message would ring, but it didn’t.
So, I opened the status window first.
[Level: 1391
Number of kills: 11582, Number of deaths: 0
Titles: Only Closed Beta Max level Achiever and 12 others.
Health: 8,473,000 / 8,473,000
Mana: 5,121,000 / 5,121,000
Strength: 13774 (+3000) Agility: 16241 Stamina: 62773 (+3000)
Willpower: 44821 Intellect: 83420
Remaining stat points: 0
Remaining skill points: 0
Traits: Iceman, Mutual Growth, God of Enhancement, All Buffs, All Debuffs.]
In the meantime, I had also leveled up because I really hunted like crazy.
However, what caught my eye more was that not only had my strength increased by 3000, but so had my stamina. So my stamina reached 65773.
“Why?”
At that moment, I questioned myself about it. But I didn’t ponder about it for long.
If I had suffered losses, I would have thought hard about it, but I gained a lot instead.
Since I gained a lot, I did not have to make a fuss over it.
After checking the status window, my current level of 1391 drew my attention.
“Hmm. I wish I could obtain skills when I reach level 1400…”
After I said that, I closed the status window and attacked the Titans again.
For I still had eight more days left until the new level 1600 hunting ground appeared, even though I was done imprinting the Titans.
I had no intention of idling away until then.
Seven days later in the level 1500 hunting ground Land of Titan.
Now I had only one day left until the new hunting grounds such as the level 1600, level 1700 and level 1800 hunting grounds appeared.
That’s why those playing Revival Legend were having a war of nerves these days because they heard that the new hunting grounds would appear randomly.
As a result, even if somebody discovered a new hunting ground first, it would be difficult for them to claim 100% ownership because others would not sit idle.
Moreover, in the past, there was a wall isolating each region, so the powerful and mighty players in each region dominated that region, but now all the walls were gone and there was only one region, which meant that all these powerful guys would have to compete against each other as well.
Despite all that, I was confident because nobody could stop me, nor Myongjin as a whole, from hunting in the new hunting grounds even if somebody claimed ownership of it. It would be just like the level 1300, level 1400, and level 1500 hunting grounds, where I gradually lead the Myongjin players to follow suit after I first hunted in those hunting grounds.
So I just concentrated on hunting.
