Chapter 76: William, The Boss in Making
William looked satisfactorily at the skyrocketing data attributes on the panel. Unknowingly, through the process of leveling up and perfecting various specialized skills, William had beco a true powerhouse.
Within the kingdom, William had also earned quite a reputation, admired and respected by others.
However, he couldn’t afford to stop there. After all, he was still far from reaching the level of a Gold-tier or even Legendary-tier powerhouse.
The scenes of Legendary-tier powerhouses battling like natural disasters, as rembered by William, gradually cald his mood.
After all, this was just a small breakthrough on the path to becoming stronger. There was still a long way to go!
After a brief mont of pleasure, William began to contemplate the improvent of skills and specialties.
Firstly, there were the rewards for clearing the Dungeon “Azrael’s Tomb of Death.”
With the experience gained from defeating Azrael and clearing the Dungeon, he gained a total of 5 million experience points.
Because he had defeated Azrael in a clever way and the completion rate of the instance was relatively low, he didn’t receive the full amount of experience for clearing it.
But for William, this was already the best outco he could have imagined. Being too greedy might have cost him his life.
It’s worth ntioning that the talent “Jack of All Trades” provided an additional 1.5 million experience points for William.
The terrifying aspect of Legendary-tier talents was gradually revealing its edge.
Breaking through the Silver-tier probably cost around 2 million experience points. Although there were still enough experience points left to increase his level by about four or five, William didn’t intend to invest in leveling up right now.
Having passed the Silver-tier, subsequent level increases of four or five levels wouldn’t significantly boost William’s strength.
It would be better to invest these experience points in improving various skill levels. After all, many of the skills William used to advance to Silver were still pitifully at level one.
So, after planning out how to allocate the remaining experience points, William decided to focus on improving so skills that would be beneficial to his current strength.
Killing Azrael and clearing the Dungeon also brought William several powerful specialties and skills.
[“Undead Slayer”]: You are a hunter of the undead. You deal 20% more damage to undead monsters and have a small chance to resist negative effects caused by undead monsters.
[“Enemy of the Undead”]: You return from the realm of the dead, and they loathe you, but they also fear you. Undead creatures lower in rank than you dare not appear before you. You deal 30% more damage to undead creatures below Legendary tier.
[“Interdiate Undead Energy Resistance”]: You have a higher chance to resist negative effects caused by undead energy, and the damage you receive from undead spells, divine arts, martial techniques, etc., is reduced by 20%.
These are all quite powerful skills, significantly enhancing William’s ability to deal with undead monsters.
Especially the specialty [“Undead Slayer”], without the restrictions of [“Enemy of the Undead”], William could be considered the nesis of creatures like liches and specters.
As for the fourth-tier spell “Corpse Manipulation” and “Fear Spell,” they are icing on the cake, saving William ti in learning them.
As for the ninth-tier spell [“Death Touch”] (1/3), well, in his past life, gas liked to include these kinds of fragnts, but they weren’t of much use to William now.
Even if he collected all of them, William wouldn’t be able to use it at the mont. He could only let it gather dust in the system for now.
Among the milestones William completed, “Gold Dungeon Conqueror” was sothing every player who cleared the Dungeon could obtain. Its effect was to increase damage dealt to monsters in Gold-tier and below Dungeon by 10%, which was quite decent.
As for the hidden milestone, “Unthinkable Miracle,” William hadn’t achieved it in his past life, nor had he heard of any player ntioning it.
[“Incredible Miracle”]: Regardless of the ans, you have achieved the miraculous feat of killing enemies spanning two major tiers. Your deeds will eventually be sung by the world, increasing your luck value by 1.
This hidden milestone actually added a bit of luck to William, which is an extrely rare and precious reward!
But then again, it’s quite understandable. Killing enemies spanning two tiers is indeed outrageous.
In his past life, even knowing the shortcut to clear “Azrael’s Tomb of Death,” the minimum level of strength required to pass through was Silver-tier.
Speaking of which, if I hadn’t completed it this ti, would I have to kill Legendary-tier enemies at the Silver-tier level?
William grumbled inwardly, gleefully watching his luck value, which hit a minimum of 4, steadily rising. Becoming a lucky guy was just around the corner!
All that remained were the abilities gained when promoting to Silver, most of which William was quite familiar with, not much different from his past life. The most important ones were actually two.
Attribute supplentation and the specialty “Extraordinary Magic.”
Attribute supplentation was a re-supplent of William’s basic attributes after breaking through Silver, bridging the gap between gaining one point per level and three points per level, while also receiving rewards of free attribute points.
As for the “Extraordinary Magic” specialty, it’s a bit special. Unlike the specialty “Silver-tier Rank Bonus” that all Silver-tier strongn would receive, William rembered that he didn’t gain this specialty when he broke through to Silver in his past life.
Or rather, no player had obtained this specialty. It was only seen on protagonists of the story or on bosses.
The effect of “Extraordinary Magic” is quite powerful, similar to other specialties like “Extraordinary Strength.” Besides the bonus to magical power, the main effect is the additional damage bonus.
Just this effect alone widened the gap in strength between players and story protagonists by a lot!
This is also the main reason why William feels he’s already a Silver-tier boss.
Finally, as the foundation of all his strength, his talent “Jack of All Trades” had a new improvent, which is a transformation that may occur when a ga character breaks through to a major tier.
William knew that so players’ talents, with this opportunity, had advanced from Silver to Gold, which was very rare.
But he didn’t expect his Legendary-tier talent to also receive an upgrade.
The additional experience bonus effect provided by the talent “Jack of All Trades” increased from 30% to 50%.
At the sa ti, there was also a new effect added, reducing the restrictions on William’s use of extraordinary items.
This effect, William thought, should be about reducing the usage requirents.
For example, if the usage restriction of an equipnt piece is player level 100, after William’s “Jack of All Trades” talent takes effect, the level restriction might be lowered to level 50.
But these were all William’s speculations. After all, he hadn’t heard of any player in his past life whose talent had a similar effect.
After understanding the improvent of his talent, William even had so unconventional plans, which he kept in mind and would experint with later when he had the chance.
Once all his thoughts were sorted out, William returned to the camp with brisk steps.
Seeing that Jason, Elena, and the others had already fallen into slumber, William shook his head. It seed that they had a tough ti in the tomb. They didn’t even wake up despite the commotion when he broke through just now.
After setting up warning magic around the camp, William slipped into his tent, shook out the bundled blanket, lifted Angela, who was still sleeping, and threw her onto the newly retrieved pillow. William then lay down on the blanket and fell into a deep sleep.
The excitent from breaking through to Silver gradually faded away. William, who hadn’t slept for two days, could finally rest properly for a while.
