The next morning, Arjun woke up feeling refreshed. After brushing his teeth, he went about his routine of completing the daily quest. The quest took a few hours, but he managed to finish it successfully.
Arjun: "System, where are my rewards? Please give them to me quickly."
System "I am giving you the rewards now."
Daily Quest Rewards:
Ability Name: Agility Boost
Description: This ability increases your agility for 2 minutes but consumes one mana every second.
System Points: 100
SU Points: 100
Lottery Spin Reward: 1
Strength Potion: 1
Arjun was pleased with the agility boost ability but remembered that he still needed to upgrade the system. He turned to the system for an update.
Arjun: "How many SU points do I have right now?"
System: "You currently have 2,048 SU points."
Arjun: "Okay, upgrade the system."
System: "Upgrade will be done."
A few moments later, the system notified Arjun of the upgrade.
System: "Congratulations, your system has been updated to Level 3. New features have been added and old features have been removed. If you had not completed the daily quests earlier, you would have received a penalty. Now, you will receive penalty missions, and rewards for these missions will be given based on their difficulty. You can undertake penalty missions anytime, but they should not exceed 1 month, otherwise, you will receive a death penalty. Additionally, you can now upgrade your abilities using system points. Ability Upgrade Stones are no longer needed and have been removed. Upgrading an ability now costs 1000 system points.
New Features:
1. System Points for Lottery Spins:
1000 system points for one spin
10,000 system points for 10 spins
2. Sell Items in System Store: You can now sell items inside the system store and earn system points. Prices of items have been reduced. Abilities can now be purchased inside the store. Treasure maps and Mana Stones are also available for purchase.
3. Dungeon Summoning: You can summon any dungeon by paying 1000 system points.
System: "Since you upgraded the system, you will receive a reward."
Reward:
Intelligence Apple: This apple can increase your intelligence.
Arjun thought about the apple and decided he would give it to his sister, who aspired to become a scientist. It could aid her in her studies.
Arjun: "I'll give this apple to my sister. She wants to become a scientist, and it will help her."
System: "Wait. You currently have 20 stat points."
Arjun: "Where did all these stat points come from?"
System: "You received 5 stat points when you first upgraded the system. You then gained 10 stat points when you killed Gorath, the Dread Beast, as your level increased from 5 to 15. Today's system upgrade added another 5 stat points. The total stat points amount to 20."
Arjun: "Okay, I'll use these stat points."
Arjun prepared to allocate his stat points, excited about the new system features and the opportunities they would bring. For now, he decided to focus on his immediate goals and utilize his newfound abilities wisely.
Arjun: "One more thing, system. I wanted to ask, if I put a stat point into Mana, how much will it increase?"
System: "If you allocate a stat point to Mana, it will increase by 10. However, this does not affect Intelligence."
Arjun: "Okay, I want to allocate 10 stat points to Mana, 5 to Health, 2 to Strength, 1 to Agility, 1 to Intelligence, and 1 to Defense."
System: "Okay, I will make those changes. Check your status now."
Status Update:
Name: Arjun Malhotra
Level: 15
Strength: 77
Defense: 24
Agility: 45
Health: 155/155
Mana: 150
IQ: 93
Arjun: "Wait a minute, what is this, system? Earlier my Strength was 23, and now it's 77. How did it increase so much?"
System: "Even if you don't allocate stat points to Strength, it will still increase over time due to your daily workouts and training. Let me give you a tip: you don't need to allocate stat points to Strength and Intelligence. They will naturally increase as you continue to work out and engage in activities. Focus your stat points on areas where you need immediate improvement."
Arjun: "Got it. Thanks for the tip."
System: "You're welcome. Is there anything else you need help with?"
Arjun: "No, that's all for now. I'll continue with my daily quests and make use of the new system features."
System: "Understood. Remember, with the new upgrades, you can now use system points for lottery spins and purchase items from the system store. Make sure to take advantage of these features to further enhance your abilities and resources."
Arjun: "I will. Thanks."
