The skills he obtained were, yes, overpowered in the hands of others, but in his?
It's a complete trash. It cannot be called as pearl in a swine's neck, because others can get it and use it for themselves.
It's more like "item in the museum" thing that is completely usable, but the museum only uses it for design.
Shit character, shit skills, shit stats.
What can get shittier than this?
But then, Zypher cannot be defeated. He has to at least get things straight for now. These skills may be problematic, but he can find another way to use it.
Delva's Eyes takes priority right now. Before that, he must first complete the quest he got.
And from the Blood Ore Cave, he now has some materials to use to make rare items.
"Codex Library."
[Initializing...]
{Codex Libary Opened.}
{What can I help you today?"}
"Show me rare blueprints by using Vampire's drops."
{Searching...}
{Found 87 Blueprints. Anything else?}
In this kind of scenario, Zypher has many thoughts.
First, he will go to another dungeon now, and he needs weapons, and not just making a hidden boss and a final boss fight.
Also, the next dungeon he will go to doesn't have a hidden boss or anything, but the moment you enter, it is already a boss battle.
This is called an "instant-dungeon" and players always clear it because of the quantity of drops.
This time, his skills will be tested and he must overcome the said trial.
Another thing in mind is an armor, which can protect his body against attacks. He can also add boots to make his speed go up, and some braces for attack. But then, he will have a hand-to-hand combat.
The next thing he wants is a help for his production and can help him finish his quests.
An item came to his mind, and in a very serious manner, he looked at it with unpleasant eyes.
[Void Glove I]
[Very first edition of the Void Glove. It is said that whoever uses it becomes one with the void and steals its users life.]
[Materials:]
Vampire Fang x1
Vampire Wing x1
...
...
...
+99 more...
When Zypher saw this, he can't help but be sad. This was the glove created by his brother, Zander from a trial and error sequence.
It was said that if he didn't die, the progress of the game will be faster, and the Act II of the game will be met quickly.
But then, many things are questionable in his death, but in his past life, Zypher didn't get one chance to investigate it.
But, to arrive there, he has to get the other materials needed.
Legar is a Tutorial City, and only EXP and items can be obtained here. The Gold compensation for quests are still not available, and the next thing he needs is also in another city.
And that is his first trial.
This is a trial of new players for them to actually be skilled and not just someone who was carried by the bus.
A player must travel alone for days, trying to find another bigger city, and be registered as a new player.
The developers of the game thought so hard to make this happen, and the implementation was a success. The gaming world was shaken, but it accepted the challenge and found it perfect.
And this is a problem for a Level 1 Zypher.
Although he has two weapons, the blood and the shadow one, he cannot use them for now.
Because the users must have the bloodline of a vampire or is a shadow.
So, all in all, the things he got from slaying the two bosses are unusable.
For now, he only has the Blood Missile Skill, which is another health-based skill. With that, Zypher decided to get the things he needed for the Void Glove.
In truth, the materials needed are from other places, but there is a system that helps the players obtain materials: the Trading System.
In here, players can auction their materials for the materials they needed. For example, 1 gram of Wynn's Tear for half a gram of Poison Orb, which can only be found in another kingdom.
And, what is Zypher's main trading material for today? Yes, Blood Ores.
Different places have different varieties, and so, knowing this, he can rip off anyone as long as he supplies the Blood Ores with little amount.
Players may have higher or more materials they don't want from their Inventory, so getting rid of those is a must.
Zypher has now 1 kg of Blood Ores, and distributing it per 10 grams can make the market prices manipulated.
That is not all, he found another interesting Ability that he got after he killed the two bosses.
In fact, he got a Nether Dungeon Core. At first, he didn't know where to use it, but when he saw the Ability, he knew he will be the richest man, and will topple the four top guilds.
Ability: Codex Labyrinth.
It has a simple system, but is a good farming place for Zypher.
"Codex Labyrinth!"
{Initializing...}
{Codex Labyrinth Built.}
{Entering First Layer.}
{City has been built, please choose a name for it.}
"Is there a need to think? Caelestia."
{Do you wish to name the city "Is There A Need To Think? Caelestia"?}
"You shitty! Caelestia, okay?"
{Do you wish to name the city "You Shitty! Caelestia, Okay?"?}
"Caelestia!"
{Do you wish to name the city "Caelestia"?}
"Yes."
{Do you wish to name the city "Yes"?}
"..."
{Do you wish to name the city "..."?}
- - - - -
{Welcome to Caelestia City.}
{Quest Created: Build a Central Building.}
Examples are: Town Hall, City Hall, Palace, Academy, Mercenary Guild, Merchant Guild, etc.
Note: Progression will be determined from the first choice. Choose wisely.
In truth, Zypher doesn't know what to build in here, but he saw that he can build many structures, and he Central Building is necessary.
For example, if he builds an Academy for a Central Building, the Learning Ability fo Zypher will be hastened by 10%, which is a bit useless for him because he already has a blessing.
On the other hand, if he chooses a Merchant Guild, he can acquire more Gold every quest he finishes.
If he chooses a Mercenary Guild, the Skill Proficiency Rate will be faster, but, it is also useless because of the gift that he can learn anything, meaning, he can be proficient in anything.
A Government Hall will suffice, but it is a bit useless as it will only unlock the Command Stat, which he already had because of the blessing.
Training Grounds can also be the Central Building, but it mines EXP, and levels up the character, and he was cursed to stay at Level 1.
In short, all of the ones are useless, except for some that he found.
An Herb Garden, a Science Laboratory, a Magic Tower and a Production Hall.
The Herb Garden is a garden, as its name suggests. In this garden, plants can mutate, or give outstanding effects to anyone. The herbs given by the garden can be used by the Producers (chef, apothecary, alchemist, poison master) subclasses.
The Science Laboratory is for the Makers (technician, blacksmith, accessory maker, tailor) subclasses. This Central Building produces ores of different classes, as well as minerals, and other things required by the makers.
The Magic Tower is for energy control and usage. This can also aid in the creation of new skills according to the users' preference.
The last one is the Production Hall. It aids the user to produce a higher rarity production everytime.
The Production Hall is the biggest win, but the Magic Tower can be useful more times than the Production Hall.
"I can't seem to choose one."
(Maybe I can help.)
A familiar voice suddenly appeared.
"Huh? Who are you?"
(I am Upgrader, a part of *****. By my name, I can upgrade almost anything but the player itself.)
"That's fine, I don't need upgrades anyways. Tell me how you can help then."
(The city is part of the Ability of the *****--)
"Codex?"
{Initializing Codex Protocol.}
[Game Administrator became aware of the intrusion.]
[Moderator is purging the Anomaly.]
[Moderator found a Piece of itself.]
[Moderator is now a part of you.]
[You can now know whatever is happening in the game by paying a price.]
[Game Administrator builds a Firewall to protect the player.]
[Firewall Level 9 received.]
{Quests will be automatically changed for the sake of the user.}
(Damn kid, we thought you didn't know.)
With that, a sudden headache came to Zypher.
It was the same as when he killed the two bosses, but he can bear it this time.
[{(
[Quest 1- Build Caelestia City.]
Rewards:
Random Turret
Building Licenses x1
(Hey kid, good job. We were already rotting inside.) An old middle aged man voice said.
[Where am I? I am moderating when-- Uppie?] This time, it is a strict guy that sounded surprised.
(Damn, who are you calling Uppie? You wanna fight?)
"What the hell are the voices in my head."
(You are what the hell, kid. What the hell your fami--)
{Hey, am I a design to all of you?}
With the cold tone, a female voice came over.
One by one, four people appeared in front of him.
The owner of the middle aged voice is a dark-toned man with white hair and a gangster vibe. His slim body is built like a machine for riot fights and chaos.
(Upgrade Lv. Max)
(Upgrader of a skill, ability, or equipment. The time and resources consumed rises exponentially depending on the upgrades needed.)
The next one to appear is the timid young lady that is almost 13 years old. She has an overcoat jacket that covers the half-bottom of her face and a hood. The sleeves are also long, but her shorts are super short with a leggings up to her thighs and black shoes.
The third to arrive is a man with buff body, white skin and black hair. His black square-framed glasses, white long sleeves with blue vest and black slacks makes him look like a strict teacher.
[Moderator Lv. Max]
[Moderates the quests, game, and other things in the game.]
Lastly, a lady in a white dress came. She exudes maturity, and shines tantalizingly. Her white dress is flowing as she smiled and her white heels are also eye catching.
{Goggles Lv. Max}
{The encyclopedia, atlas, dictionary, browser as well as all-knowing of everything in the game.}
With the introduction of everyone, Zypher saw hope in his current predicament, and all the predicaments that will happen.
Everything is as good as solved, if he just have money from the game.
{This place is protected by Fire Wall 9, so we don't have much time left to teach you.}
Instead of a normal greeting, Goggles patted his shoulder as she then grabbed something from the air.
[We will answer one of your questions, so ask away, and please hurry, because we cannot control this place for long.]
"What? How?"
(That's two, kid. And ask specific questions.)
Upgrade then delivered a kick on his shin, making him gasp for air.
[You barbarian.]
Mod helped him up, as he eyed him and said:
[Please, don't worry, we are your allies.]
Although timid, Edit said as she looked at the cracking floor beneath them.
{There's no time. Take this and make this your Central Building. Don't worry, we won't harm you. We just want to help you.}
[Uppie, take him away.]
(Uppie again?)
With that, Upgrade pulled a capsule out of nowhere and threw Zypher inside it.
(Good luck, kid. I hope you can help us next time.)
SWOOOSH!
With that, The capsule vanished as the space collapsed fully.
Zypher then came back to the Central Building Selection.
