Chapter 26: Chapter 26: New chanisms, New Gaplay
What's going on here?
Steeran, puzzled and uncertain, noticed another line of small text appearing before her eyes:
[Current Soul Count: 5677, available for leveling up]
Leveling up!?
At this thought, a panel suddenly opened in front of her, giving her a shock.
[Steeran]
[Life: 3]
[Strength: 3]
[Intelligence: 1]
[Endurance: 1]
[Agility: 1]
[Perception: 1]
[Souls Required for Leveling Up: 644]
"What is this thing?" She turned helplessly to Gong Qiying, as this was beyond her comprehension.
"This is the surprise I was talking about,"
Gong Qiying said while clapping her hands: "Congratulations, defeating the Giant Curse Frog ans you've cleared the upper area, and now you can explore further down. More adventures are waiting for you."
"Thank you... No, wait, I'm asking about this thing!"
"That thing is a reward for those who clear the upper level," Gong Qiying explained. "I don't know much, but I can tell you a little."
"Every ti you clear a level, you'll encounter a bonfire. Resting at the bonfire allows you to quickly replenish lost stamina and also upgrade using souls. Regardless of how strong you are, everyone starts at level one by default."
"Where do the souls co from, you ask? They are dropped by monsters you kill,"
Gong Qiying said: "This is a unique chanism of the Sain Dungeon. After killing monsters, you receive varying amounts of souls, and with these souls, you can level up at the bonfire. Yes, leveling up is about getting stronger, and the enhancents remain even after you leave the Sain Dungeon."
Steeran's breathing beca heavier as she realized sothing, saying, "So you an, as long as I keep killing monsters, I can beco stronger?"
"That's the idea,"
She hurried over to examine the panel, wondering why Life and Strength were at 3 while the rest were at 1. Was it because she used the Giant Curse Frog's soul?
"Life and Strength are easy to understand. Intelligence is different from what you might think IQ is; it's related to the damage you deal with magic. Higher intelligence ans more powerful magic. Endurance is linked to energy. The higher your Endurance is leveled up, the longer you can hold a Big Shield,"
"Agility speaks for itself, and you can see Perception as luck. The higher your Perception, the more likely you are to obtain items from monsters you kill,"
Steeran was stunned for a mont and muttered to herself, "This is indeed... an unheard-of chanism."
In that instant, she realized the potential of the bonfire chanism—if one could continue to level up, wouldn't everyone in the world flood this place?
"Try leveling up your Endurance and see,"
Endurance turned to 2. She shook her hand, feeling no significant change.
[Souls Required for Leveling Up: 807]
Once Endurance reached 4, Steeran finally felt a change in her body—an indescribable sensation, but essentially she felt stronger.
She then leveled up a point in Strength, a point in Perception, a point in Agility, focusing on balanced developnt.
[Souls Required for Leveling Up: 1899]
[Current Soul Count: 78]
Out of money...
Steeran, not yet satisfied, regretfully closed the panel. The fascination of becoming stronger with just a simple touch was truly captivating.
And yet, it defied the heavens.
If she relied solely on training, the ti needed to beco stronger would be asured in years, but in the Sain Dungeon, she only needed to kill Monsters!
She couldn't even fathom how crazed those who hit a bottleneck in their cultivation would be upon learning that they could level up here so easily and quickly!
"Right," Steeran rembered to ask Gong Qiying for his thoughts after leveling up, "Any suggestions for leveling up?"
Gong Qiying thought for a mont and said, "First, increase your hit points to forty."
"Ah, is there a reason for this?"
"No, just to increase your survival rate,"
"Okay..."
Steeran was about to say sothing when she suddenly widened her eyes, pointing at Gong Qiying and speaking incoherently, "You, you, you,"
