Chapter 8 - Level 008 Upgrade

8 Level 008 Upgrade

Translator: 549690339

In comparison to individual attribute extraction, using the extracted attributes on skills clearly offers a lot more bang for the buck.

After all, Dean McKenzie doesn’t know if he can assign the agility and attack attributes he’s extracted to spirit and mana.

Even if he can, they may be discounted. fr eenovelkiss.com

Moreover, in his current state, even if the 0.3 attributes can be assigned to spirit or mana without any discounts, it doesn’t seem like it would be that helpful.

But it’s different when these attributes are added to skills.

“Doggy Two’s speed is already a bit faster than the corpses. If I add 0.2 agility, leading the monsters will undoubtedly be much easier!”

Dean McKenzie made his decision almost as soon as he finished speaking.

[You have chosen the skill [Summon Skeleton] as the first target for assignment!]

[Since the skill you chose is special, you have to choose whether to assign it to the skill itself or to the summon!]

Just as Dean made one choice, another slammed in front of him.

“Assign it to the summon!”

Faced with a decision, Dean made a resolute choice.

He was well aware that if he chose the skill itself, in the long run, it would certainly be better than choosing the summon.

But as it stood, Dean didn’t have a choice.

A bird in hand is worth two in the bush; it’s best to enhance Doggy Two first.

[You chose [Summon] to assign, the attributes you extract next will be automatically assigned to your summon [Doggy Two]!]

[You have 0.1 Attack and 0.2 Agility attributes, would you like to assign them to [Doggy Two]?]

ps: This assignment will consume 300 Copper Coins!]

Dean was somewhat shocked by the system prompt that popped up.

“It’s gonna cost money?”

He was a bit confused, but then he thought about it. Since he could earn money from monster slaying, it seemed reasonable that a talent would consume money.

Looking at the money he’d earned from slaying the hard-haired rat earlier, Dean decided to splash out.

[You have spent 300 Copper Coins to successfully assign your extracted attributes to your summon [Doggy Two].]

[Your summon [Doggy Two] has received an attribute boost!]

[You have completed the summon assignment, the summon is bound to you at a deeper level, maintaining the summon no longer requires mana, you can summon this skeleton at any time!]

Hearing the Golden Finger’s prompt, Dean hurriedly called Doggy Two over to have a look.

But apart from the attribute upgrade, Doggy Two seemed to be unchanged.

“Although I can’t see any visible changes, it should be enhanced, right?

Let’s get back to work!”

After scratching his head, Dean decisively gave the order to get back to work.

Thanks to the good start from the previous two waves, Dean had accumulated substantial experience, and had just consumed a potion.

Although the efficacy of the potion was almost over, it had one invisible benefit—it slightly relieved his hunger and restored some vitality.

With Doggy Two slightly enhanced, progress was significantly smoother.

During the third wave, Doggy Two lured over two corpses.

Dean easily killed them, using only a single Bone Fang.

He was lucky—this wave also dropped some loot and he got 100 Copper Coins. Dean’s mana was now at 13 and his experience points had reached [50/100].

After briefly resting and regaining 16 mana points, Doggy Two was dispatched again.

After this, Doggy Two seemed to be gradually getting the hang of luring the monsters.

The fourth, fifth and sixth waves all saw Doggy Two luring back a single corpse.

Facing a solo corpse, in order to conserve mana, Dean directly used the magic wand. Assisted by Doggy Two, he successfully slain three corpses without consuming mana.

The cost was that both Dean and Doggy Two got slightly injured.

The reward was that Dean’s experience points reached [65/100], and the sixth wave of corpses dropped another [Mana Potion] (Small) for Dean.

Holding the potion in his hand, Dean McKenzie’s sense of security instantly escalated. He felt he could go for something bigger.

“No, no, I can’t be too impulsive!

Right now, I can only handle seven or eight regular corpses at most.

If Doggy Two lures over too many at once, then I’m in trouble.

Besides, there are about seventy or eighty corpses in that swarm. With such quantities, there might be a boss among them.

Therefore, the more I see the hope of victory, the more I have to stay grounded. I absolutely cannot get carried away!”

Next, Dean McKenzie does as he says and becomes even more careful.

However, as he has a potion in hand, and he is already very hungry.

In the following battles, Dean McKenzie primarily uses [Bone Fang] to end the fights.

[You have killed [corpse] 1, gaining a total of 5 experience points!]

[You have killed [corpse] 1, gaining a total of 5 experience points!]

[You have used [Mana Potion] (tiny)!]

[You used [Talent] 4 times, succeeded 3 times, gained 0.4 Agility, 0.1 Attack, 0.1 Defense!]

[You have spent 600 Copper Coins to obtain!]

Soon, Dean McKenzie has once again used the [Mana Potion] to finish the fight.

While bringing his Experience Points to [75/100], he has also enhanced Doggy Two’s attributes.

At this moment, Doggy Two’s attributes have improved a lot.

Name: Pale Skeleton (Doggy Two)

Level: Level 3

Servant: Dean McKenzie

Attributes:

Strength: 1.2, Agility: 1.6, Physique: 0.8

Attack: 1.4

Defense: 0.5

Skill: None

Description: This is a qualified cannon fodder

Doggy Two’s agility, which increased the most, has gone up by sixty percent. Its original agility of 1 was faster than the corpse. Now, with an agility of 1.6, it can easily defeat the corpse.

After Doggy Two’s speed advantage increased, Dean McKenzie considered adjusting his approach.

Next, Dean McKenzie didn’t rush Doggy Two to attack, but found a stick as a weapon for Doggy Two. Dean McKenzie then began directing Doggy Two in various exercises.

Of course, as Dean McKenzie was hungry and short of time, he only had Doggy Two practice for a few minutes before sending him out to fight.

This time, Dean McKenzie did not lay on the rock but accompanied Doggy Two on the attack.

In the perimeter of the corpse swarm, Dean McKenzie found a relatively safer position with a suitable field of vision. He hid there and directed Doggy Two to attack.

Under Dean McKenzie’s command, Doggy Two’s decoy was smoother.

He masterfully lured a corpse, brought it out of the corpse swarm, brought it to Dean McKenzie, then immediately ordered Doggy Two to attack. A side step, a swing of the stick in hand, a “slap” on the corpse’s body.

The sound was loud, but it didn’t cause damage.

The corpse was about to counter-attack when a Bone Fang went precisely into its eye socket, finishing the corpse.

“Again!”

Then, Dean McKenzie and Doggy Two continued to lure and kill.

Their teamwork was improving constantly.

On the first one, Doggy Two didn’t deal any damage, on the second one, Doggy Two accurately hit the corpse’s knee making it fall.

But failed to seize the opportunity to kill it. The corpse managed to get up, Dean McKenzie had to use the Bone Fang to end the fight.

On the third one, Dean McKenzie’s command to Doggy Two improved.

This time, they were able to knock down the corpse. With Dean McKenzie’s support, Doggy Two managed to kill the corpse without using the Bone Fang.

From the fifth corpse onwards, Doggy Two was able to defeat the corpses using its Agility and Dean McKenzie’s commands.

While it was fighting, Dean McKenzie leveled up.

[You successfully killed a corpse, gaining a total of 5 experience points!]

[Your level has increased to Level 2, your Spirit has increased by 0.5 points, your Mana limit has increased to 26 points!]

Thanks for the 500 golden point reward from [Ming Jun]!
