•Name: Blood Level: 13
•Title: [Goblin annihilator] [Solo ranker]
•Unique passive skill: -[Shadow]
- [Double Attributes]
"Double attributes...?" Hary looked carefully at the screen just to check if his eyes weren't deceiving him. Also, if this passive skill was real, it must be the main reason why Ling had those abilities.
Ling was blinking his eyes in confusion as he can't remember where he got that passive skill. "Double attributes? I never saw the passive skill appear on the screen before."
By reading Ling's expression, it seemed like he didn't understand the current situation where put right now. Or, he was already aware of it and just pretending that he doesn't know about this?
Hary gradually shook his head. 'No, if he really knows about this, he won't show his screen to me for sure. Now, the main question here where did he get this? Since a low-level ranker should have one passive skill until they reach level 20.' He uttered to his mind.
0-20 first passive skill, 21-35 second passive skill, 36-60 third passive skill, and so on. The second passive skill and the others would determine within the ranker's playstyle or the achievements they got during that time.
As of now, Hary just has two passive skills which were the [Light as a feather] that gave him the ability to control the wind element, and [Cool head] that allowed him to think in a tight situation. Plus, the 8% mana regeneration.
If he remembered correctly was his current level when he acquired his passive skill, and he put so much effort to have that. Then now Ling already has it in level 13? Really?
Hary took a deep breath, knowing that he showed excessive expression on Ling, at the same time, he must remain calm so that [Cool head] passive was still active.
"Phew! First of all, where did you get this passive skill?" He asked nonchalantly as it started to sink in all the shocking information he witnessed right now.
"I can't remember. To be honest, it's the first time I saw that skill."
Hary's expression didn't change as he anticipated that answer. "Is that so? It looks like I'm giving you the wrong question. To put it simply, when did you feel you are getting stronger?"
Ling kneaded his chin, "Well, I'm not that strong, but something changes with me every time I put my free attributes. If compared to my ability from the start, it's like I get stronger by 20%. I think?"
'He's not dumb to not understand my simple question. So it means he really had no idea where did he get that passive skill. The first one is [Shadow] giving him a huge movement speed, and now the Double attributes? I wonder what he would get next. You are full of surprises, Ling.'
At this juncture, he found out that there were a lot of things he didn't know about Ling. The first one was about how he was good with basketball, and the other was about he was gifted in this game for some reason.
Of course, it came to his mind to buy Ling's account at a reasonable price. However, it wasn't possible, unlike in the other games, that the player could earn a lot of money by selling their accounts. To be exact, in this game the player would give their DNA with the painless needle located inside the gloves.
Yes, the black VR glove would take their blood for the permanent account. Of course, someone try to use another person's blood, but now it wasn't necessary. Why? Because the VR helmet would also scan their eyes for the final verification.
Yes, once the player created a character in this game, that was permanent unless the owner died.

The duo seated one of the tombs as Hary would like to explain what was the true abilities of his new passive skill. Although Ling can understand it alone, still, it was different if an experienced ranker would give the information.
"Hary, this is the first time I saw get serious with something. So tell me, what's the matter?"
Hary scratched the back of his head and smiled at him. "Sorry if I scared you, I'm just simply surprised with your ability. At first, believing that you are Blood is hard, but now you already surpassed my expectations." He said in a low tone.
Ling tilted his head a bit as he was sure that was the tone of a person who was sad inside. "Don't pretend. Tell me, what is it?"
Hary looked at him with a cold expression on his face. "Honestly, I play this game for almost 8 months. Although I could buy better equipment with my money, still, my progress is not good as what you have right now."
"What do you mean by that? You are a strong ranker I saw that."
"Don't get me wrong, Ling. I'm not jealous or something, I just regret that I should not focus on buying expensive items. Instead, copy what are you doing right now." He said and smiled. "But let's forget about that since I'm trying to explain what the Double Attributes passive skill is."
Hmm... For 8 months of playing how Hary was still a level 39 mage? There was no doubt his progress was quite slow. Why? Ling was playing for almost 5 days and now was level 13 almost of his current level. He can't tell right now, but it seemed there was a deep reason behind this.
Ling understood his friend's feelings, that's why he didn't insist on asking him, instead focusing his ears on all the words coming out of Hary's mouth.
"Double attributes are explanatory. But for you to understand it quickly, all your basic status would be doubled up. Do you attain two more levels in this place, right? So it means you are level 13, once we sum that your current power similar to the level 26 ranker." He stood up, then patted his clothes to remove the dust.
After hearing those words, Ling immediately opened his function screen and saw all of their times by two. "How could this happen?"
"Don't be surprised, Ling. There are still a lot of things in this world that surpass your expectation. For now, let's finish our expedition here."
Swoosh!
"Hary...?"
