Chapter 1110 Strength Testing

1110 Strength Testing

Bang!

Arriving at the mission hall's strength testing area, both Valyr and the attendant were immediately greeted by the sight of people going all out as they struck the training dummies in front of them.

Staring at the training dummies for a bit, the young man was reminded of the training dummies Mystia brought out during the War Forge Assembly, briefly causing him to wryly smile as he inwardly shook his head.

'Yeah... not gonna bring out the arquebus for this one.'

"Here we are, Sir Ylvar," said the attendant as he looked at Valyr. "Since all of the training dummies are currently occupied, we'll have to wait for a bit before we can confirm that you have the strength to complete missions made for 2-star mercenaries."

At those words, Valyr nodded, only to then ask the attendant a question that came to mind. "Say, is there a limit to how far of a mission I could get as a novice mercenary?"

"Not necessarily," replied the attendant, briefly watching the strikes some of the people landed on the training dummies. "As long as the person shows that they have the strength to complete it, then they could take on an extremely difficult mission if they wanted to?"

Hearing those words, the young man thought for a bit before responding back. "So, let's say I decide to grab a mission from the highest rank one could reach. As long as I prove that I have the strength to complete it, then I'll be able to take it?"

"Technically, that would be the case," said the attendant as he nodded, only give Valyr a more thorough explanation on how it worked.

Giving Valyr a brief rundown on the ranking system that was currently in place, the attendant explained to him that, for mercenaries, their ranks commonly ranged from Novice Mercenary to 10-Star Mercenary.

After that, one would then go through Iron, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, and Crimson, with Crimson Mercenary being the highest rank a mercenary could ever achieve on the frontlines.

From what the attendant was telling him, Valyr was only able to do something similar to the question he had up to missions that were made for 10-star mercenaries.

As for missions that were made for Iron Mercenaries and above, not only would he need to reach the rank that preceded the rank that was made for the mission, but he would also have to do a separate strength test after that.

Sensing the confusion in Valyr's expression during the last part of his explanation, the attendant clarified himself. "In other words, if you want to take on the missions of an Iron Mercenary, you'll have to reach the 10-Star Mercenary rank first."

"To take on a Silver Mercenary mission, you'd have to be an Iron Mercenary, and so on, and so forth."

Feeling like he'd been caught red-handed, Valyr flashed a bitter smile back at Aleos before shifting his attention towards the young woman in front of him. "Would it be possible to set the training dummy to the peak of Rank 5?"

"The peak of Rank 5?" Hearing that, both Aleos and the young woman were briefly taken aback. After all, although Valyr showed them how he cleared the test just now with ease, they weren't sure if the same would apply to his request. "You sure about that?"

"I'm sure." Valyr nodded with determination, eventually forcing the young woman let out a faint sigh as she adjusted the training dummy accordingly to his preferences.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

"There's no problem if I use stat-boosting skills, right?" After the training dummy had been adjusted to the peak of Rank 5, Valyr threw this question out at Aleos.

"No." Aleos shook his head. "That's also considered as one's strength, after all. Why do you ask?"

"Just making sure," said Valyr in response, only for him to flare his aura out in its entirety soon after.

"[Limit Break: Second Verse]!"
