Power Levelling and Upgrading Power

"You only need to kill 8 more to complete the quest right?" Ares asked Argon once the fight was completed.

"Yeah" he replied and nodded his head.

"What are you going to do once it is done? Are you going to stay and continue to grind or immediately head back and turn it in?"

Argon scratched his head before replying "I am just gonna head back and turn it in. Killing these last 8 will bring me close to leveling up to 2, and turning it in would level me up completely. After that, I am going to log off and call it a day. I couldn't sleep last night because I was too excited about the launch of the game, HAHA.What about you?"

"I am gonna continue to grind here. I have 5 quests to do and it will take a while. Plus this is a pretty good spot for me. I can level up pretty fast here." Ares said.

Argon nodded and they continued on with hunting lizards. A few minutes later, they ran across another group of them, this time thee were 9 in this group. Following the same plan of attack, the two of them made short work of the beasts. With this fight, Ares was now only 10 EXP away from level 2. He had earned 180 EXP.

Argon did not tarry after the fight ended. "Alright. Thanks for partying up with me. I don't know how long this would have taken without your help. I really appreciate it. If you want to party up again sometime, just hit me up. I will be going now. be careful out here, not that you need it. See ya." Argon said as he waved goodbye and started heading back to town. The part between the two was also disbanded.

With the party disbanded and Ares now on his own, the EXP wasn't split in half anymore. With only 10 EXP left, he went on to find a beast to kill. 2 minutes later, he killed a small pack of level 3 kobolds, which numbered 4 in total, netting him 120 EXP, completion of the first quest, and level 2. now, he could find a quiet spot and cultivate his elements to raise his power. This place that was near the valley of storms was perfect as he could train them all except for darkness. he had to wait until night for that. His stats would be able to sky rocket afterwards.

Not wanting to be disturbed, ares found a tree nearby and climbed up. He found a sturdy branch that would hold him and sat on it with each leg hanging on either side of it. He closed his eyes and started cultivating. It took him 10 minutes to improve the stats by 1, so with him being level 2 now, he could improve them by 2 more so it took 20 minutes for each element. He now had a total of 7 elements, but could only train 6 of them now. This cultivation session took him 2 hours to complete. By the end his stats now looked like this.

Name: Ares

Profession: Elemental Master

Level: 2

EXP: 110/3000

Combat Power: 410

HP (Stamina *10): 120 Stamina: 12

Mana (Wisdom *10): 450 Wisdom: 45

Magic Attack (Intellect *10): 190 Intellect: 19

Physical Attack (Strength *6): 72 Strength: 12

Defense: 12

Agility: 16

His CP improved by over 100, and he only leveled up to 2. it would only get more ridiculous from here. His mana shot up to 450! he didn't have to worry about that for the near future. Looking over his new stats, Ares let out a satisfied smile. he closed out of it and jumped down from the branch, landing on his feet. He stretched his body and started to hunt for new prey. He would continue on until he completed all 500 kills he needed.

For the several hours, Ares caused hell to reign down on beasts in the area around the valley of storms. He went from a group of monsters to another constantly decimating each one within a couple minutes. He killed wolves, goblins, low-level trolls and ogres, elementals, and all sorts of other beasts. During this time, beast roars of pain and anger echoed throughout the area, making other players around the area to wonder what the heck was going on. However, they didn't go over.

Those hours allowed Ares to complete all 5 quests he had accepted as well as level up to level 5. Every time he leveled up, he stopped to cultivate his elements. His stats skyrocketed of course.

Name: Ares

Profession: Elemental Master

Level: 5

EXP: 2340/6000

Combat Power: 1010

HP (Stamina *10): 220 Stamina: 22

Mana (Wisdom *10): 1530 Wisdom: 153

Magic Attack (Intellect *10): 590 Intellect: 59

Physical Attack (Strength *6): 132 Strength: 22

Defense: 22

Agility: 46

His stats now, were seriously overpowered for his level. He could basically one shot any beast under level 10. When he returned back to town to turn in his quests, he would sky rocket in levels and he could once again push his stats to new levels. He would be even more OP. But first, he had to check the messages Bryan had sent him during the hours he was grinding. he had said that he was tired and he would log out to sleep for the night. he would catch up with him in the morning. Closing the messages out, he checked the time. It was already midnight.

He debated on whether to cultivate darkness now or wait. thinking for a moment, he ultimately decided not to. he was already strong enough and all that darkness increased was agility. he was already fast enough at the moment so he just decided to head back into town and log off for the night. He activated wind boost and took off towards the town. upon arriving, he went to the re-spawn point and logged off.

His consciousness returned to his real body and he unplugged the nodes attached to his head. He exited the capsule and stretched his body that remained still for hours. He then noticed something different with his body and used his soul to investigate. What he found gave him quite the surprise.

"What the...?"
