Without hesitation, Tron sprang to his feet and began running like a maniac.
In under one minute, he had reached 1 kilometer. The second minute passed and he immediately surpassed two kilometers.
Within thirty minutes, he had completed the agility quest mission.
However. Tron continued. This was because as soon as his muscles reached their true limit, a stream of energy would gush out from the crystal in his chest, enriching his muscles and reducing the fatigue!
This cycle went on for three hours before the effect from the crystal started to wane and the feeling of fullness within him started fading away.
Tron started slowing down at this point. Thankfully he didn't panic and remove the crystal from his chest.
"Hu!" "Hu!" "Hu!"
[+ 3.11 agility]
He earned more than double the stats on this exercise
Tron gasped like a dog on heat as he stared at the pitch-black forest ahead of him.
Unknowingly, he had reached the boundary to the Blood Forest. He and the others, including Sethral had thought it was a myth.
But it ended up being real. Tron couldn't help but step back slightly.
The forest looked like the mouth of an abyssal dragon, ready to swallow an unsuspecting prey in one go.
Knowing he couldn't stay here any longer, he started heading back to his campsite.
Roughly halfway back, Tron received a notification.
〘Daily Quest: Completed〙
〘Reward: X 2 stats〙
[Note: Respective stats points earned during the completion of the stat quest would be doubled.]
...
Suddenly, another notification appeared before him.
[Zero-mage: ██████ 100% ᴄᴏᴍᴘʟᴇᴛᴇ!]
"BOOM!!!"
Tron felt something explode in his chest as he felt as though his entire body had lit up in flames.
He was advancing to become a Zero Mage right at this moment!
"POP!" "POP!" "POP!"
His bones began cracking like corn in hell as his muscles started trembling and oscillating.
Thick veins the size of an adult male's finger wriggled and squirmed underneath Tron's skin like pythons in salt!
His eyes turned bloodshot as he felt his heart constrict and pump lava-hot blood through his veins.
"ﮩ٨ـﮩﮩ٨ـ♡ﮩ٨ـ !"
"THUMP!" "THUMP!" "THUMP!"
"ﮩ٨ـﮩﮩ٨ـ♡ﮩ٨ـﮩﮩ"
The flaming hot blood circulated from his blazing heart, into skin, cells, tissue, muscles, and bones. Anywhere the blood touched, the cells there would be strengthened, transformed, and modified.
"Siiiiiii!"
White steam escaped Tron's head and pores as the temperature in the forest started to rise.
An immense surge of raw strength started to overwhelm Tron's muscles and right now, he felt as though he couldn't move his body at all as he fell to the ground like a log.
After an unknown amount of time, the popping sounds in Tron's body intensified and then a dark substance flowed out of the pores of his entire body.
A pungent smell then permeated the entire forest.
As the impurities flowed out, Tron's body became more 'crystalline' than before. Even his scarred face looked more exquisite now.
The popping sounds and steam gradually ceased after some time. After that, Tron opened his eyes.
A hint of purple light flashed past his eyes.
After he recovered, Tron's mind turned sluggish for a moment.
Right now, the dark forest looked somewhat clearer in his eyes. He couldn't help but check his status to see what had truly happened.

...
Tyrion was lost for words. The massive increase in stats was simply too unbelievable!
Just two days ago, he was barely as strong as a regular adult and now, he possesses strength rivaling that of an acolyte!
However, Tron was immediately nervous as he closed his eyes. He was incredibly happy about his increase in strength however, he was hoping the crystal would heal his magical cortex.
Closing his eyes, he started his meditation technique. Holding his breath for a minute till his body settled, he then inhaled in a specific breathing pattern and exhaled.
This pattern happened 7 times, and then, his heart suddenly constricted.
"Thump!"
Suddenly, motes and specks of rainbow lights began appearing in the darkness of his closed eyes. Although not much, there were there.
This was when Tron got even more nervous. Using his thoughts, he locked onto a speck of light and immediately tried to attract it.
However, the speck remained in the same position even after several attempts. It was like throwing a one-meter fishing line into a lake, hundreds of meters in radius.
His eyes opened and a hint of disappointment flashed. But he didn't give up hope.
Tron placed his hand on the ground and tried to stand.
"Crack!"
The ground instantly caved as the stone underneath his palm was reduced to dust.
Tron paused as he looked at his hands in surprise. This sort of strength was almost equivalent to a mage's spell.
"Hahahaha! I possess the strength of an Acolyte Mage!"
Tron couldn't help but laugh out loud, incredibly pleased with himself.
However, he immediately calmed down. This was just the beginning and there was still a long road to go before he was truly invisible.
His eyes narrowed as he thought of the Main quest. "Ten years of suffering... I will make sure he pays with his life."
The killing intent in his eyes immediately vanished and Tron smiled as he continued heading to his campsite, and at the same time, testing his speed.
"BOOM!"
The ground shattered as a spider web shape appeared in it.
Immediately, a shockwave blasted behind Tron as he faded into an afterimage, vanishing from this part of the woods.
