Chapter 30 - Level 10 Breakthrough

Chapter 30 Level 10 Breakthrough

In fact, Lu Jin could not wait to break through Level 10.

In a situation where he did not know when the Shadowraze would appear, the light-pulse energy, which he could control, could not hurt the Shadowraze at all.

According to Lu Jin’s analysis, after the light-pulse energy was integrated into the AR system, the stronger the AR system, the stronger his control over the light-pulse energy would be.

The breakthrough of Level 10 was a huge watershed. It could allow the AR system to undergo a qualitative change, which would definitely improve his control of the light-pulse energy greatly.

However, when he considered the possibility of having better breakthroughs in the future, it would be best to develop his physical potential to the limit. That way, the AR system would be more well-suited for him, which would make it easier for him to level up his AR system in the future. Otherwise, the road ahead would only become more and more difficult.

Hence, Lu Jin had been enduring and trying to find a way to fully develop his potential.

In the lounge of the Daylight Residence, Lu Jin took a deep breath after he had had enough rest. Then, he sent 1,000 units of memory fragments into his system.

System: Player’s AR Level is already at 100%. System upgrade activated. Before the completion of the upgrade, please do not remove the AR device.

As the system notification sounded, Lu Jin saw the upgrade progress bars appear one after another. Hundreds of progress bars appeared at once, which was even more exaggerated than when he used the Crystal of Awakening

1%… 3%… 9%…

Each of the progress bars slowly increased, and time passed quickly. After three hours of upgrading, the AR glasses’ system indicator light finally lit up, which indicated that the system had been completely upgraded.

Lu Jin couldn’t help but activate the AR system in excitement.

The moment Lu Jin activated the AR system, he felt the warmth, like the warmth from the light-pulses, intensify. He did not even need to take a close look to see the light rays that were emitted from his body. Compared to before, the light rays were much clearer.

Lu Jin casually performed his sword technique, Sword Aurora.

Instantly, the light that emanated from his entire body, under the guidance of the Sword of Lake Light, transformed into a thread-like sword beam that streaked through the air. It only dissipated after a long while.

“It’s just as I guessed. As long as the AR system is upgraded, my control over the light-pulse energy will become stronger.” Lu Jin looked at the dissipating light-pulse energy in the air and was extremely excited.

Although the light-pulse energy that the sword brought out could not be compared to the masses of light-pulse energy from the Sacred Grounds, the light-pulse energy that was brought out now was more than 10 times stronger than before the breakthrough.

Even if he couldn’t defeat the Shadowraze with that energy, he could at least wound it.

He then opened his data panel.

Own

System Management Rights: Rank ‘B’

“This physical potential is truly astonishing. I’ve clearly just reached the Soldier class, yet two of my initial stats have already reached Rank ‘E’. In addition to my original stats, I’m probably comparable to those Intermediate Adventurers who have just reached Level 15 and above.” Lu Jin was secretly speechless as he looked at his basic stats.

In Fantasy World, after entering the Soldier class, they were divided into Junior Adventurers, Intermediate Adventurers, and Senior Adventurers.

The Junior Adventurers were players who were AR Level 15 and below. The limit of their four basic stats was Rank ‘D’, but it was very difficult to reach such a limit when they were only at AR Level 14. Usually, they would become Intermediate Adventurers after reaching AR Level 15.

Meanwhile, the Intermediate Adventurers were players who were AR Level 19 and below. The limit of their basic stats was only Rank ‘B’. Most of them had Rank ‘C’ stats. In order to break through further, the AR system level had to be upgraded further. Otherwise, it would be difficult to realize the areas in which they needed to improve and upgrade.

As for the Senior Adventurers, they were AR Level 19 and AR Level 20 players. Their basic stats would have typically reached the limit of their physical potential, and they were only one step away from breaking through Level 20. However, that step was very difficult to break through. Even half of the talented internal beta testers, who had been chosen previously, were stuck at that step.

That was also why there were very few people among the six million people in the entire City of Light who could break through the Level 20 limit. Those who could break through were all influential figures in the City of Light.

When Lu Jin continued to look at his own data, he was shocked.

“The system actually updated the Weapon Technique this time?” Lu Jin could not believe his eyes when he saw the Weapon Technique data.

After a player’s AR system underwent its first major upgrade, some of the combat skills that the player had learned would appear and become a proficiency in the system, or rather, it could be said that the AR system had finally perfected the player’s proficiency.

For example, Xu Xiaotian was proficient in machete skills while Tang Yan was proficient as a marksman. According to the AR system, they were both at Master level and could make their weapons part of their bodies.

With that proficiency system, players would be able to judge their level through the data and improve themselves more suitably.

However, even though weapon techniques existed in Fantasy World, they had never been displayed 400 years ago. They had always been regarded as a hidden combat skill. The AR system would not provide guidance, and players could only explore it themselves.

But now, it was available!

Although it might not mean much to others, it was extremely important to Lu Jin.

That was because with the data displayed by the system, he had guidance. He knew if he was improving and if there was room for improvement. As Lu Jin wanted to better control the light-pulse energy, improving his Weapon Technique was very important. It was more important than improving the AR system itself.

Just as Lu Jin had practiced Sword Aurora for a while, someone knocked on the door of the training room.

“Old Xu, what’s the matter?” Lu Jin stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Xu Xiaotian, who had just walked in.

Xu Xiaotian looked at Lu Jin and hesitated for a moment before he said, “CEO Lu, someone is looking for you. I’m not sure if I should let him see you.”

“Who?” Lu Jin asked curiously.

Xu XIaotian said with some trepidation, “The aggressive Jiang Haoyuan!”
