Chapter 7: Reached level 10, Tier 1 promotion
The clanging of metal, the crashing of bodies, the roar of flames and the various sounds of battle fill an island of 14,000 square metres.
Two humans are fighting hundreds of furry gorilla monsters.
(Gorilla Fur)
- level 10
- Attributes: str 31, agi 27, int 12, res 24
- (Heavy Fist) : Increases fist strength by 2 and deals critical blows to vital areas.
The gorillas, 1.5 metres tall, felt helpless against the two humans. This is because the two humans are Lein and Nita.
Even though their level is only level 6, their attributes are worth an average of 30 points, higher than the attributes of a level 10 gorilla.
Lein danced with his sword, each slash causing the gorilla's massive body to fall one by one. Not to be outdone, Nita's staff continued to unleash black flame attacks, resurrecting the corpses of the fallen gorillas.
[kills Gorilla Fabric exp +34].
[kills Gorilla Fur exp +31].
The Gorilla Island they are currently on is the 40th place they have invaded, and they have spent over 5 hours there.
During these 5 hours, Lein and Niat have already advanced to level 9 (99%). It is estimated that they will advance to level 10 when they complete Gorilla Island.
In addition, Lein has duplicated the silver chest 5 times in 5 hours. Gives another 5000 silver chests.
The contents of the silver chest are no joke, the materials that come out are always beneficial and will directly increase their strength and the strength of the island significantly.
[Kill Bull Muscle exp +35]
[Congratulations, you have reached level 10.]
[Tier 1 Promotion Mission has opened].
"Huh..."
Lein heaved a sigh of relief. They had finally reached level 10 and unlocked the promotion mission.
Out of curiosity, he made a detailed promotion mission.
[Tier 1 Promotion Mission]
- Crystal Aura x1
- Crystal Energy 10,000
- Level 10 Heart Monster - Protector
"That's all?" Lein was a bit incredulous at the details of the promotion mission.
He thought it required him to pass the trials and then choose a class.
All of the mission requirements are already in lein's possession.
(Elven Archer Aura Crystal)
Gives the ruler the aura of a powerful elven archer.
*Note: Activates level 1 promotion missions.
A white crystal the size of an adult's hand now appeared in Lein's hand.
He had many such items. Swordsman Aura Crystal, Fire Mage Aura Crystal, Holy Priest Aura Crystal, etc.
He also had the level 10 monster Heart Protector. They have attacked islands with Guardians on several occasions. Usually, Guardians have higher attributes than warrior-level monsters.
"Nita, you've seen the promotion mission, right? Which crystal did you choose?" Lein asked Nita, who was standing next to him.
"Hm, I want to be a ranged attacker. I think archers or mages would be good too" Nita had tried both bow and staff type weapons and she liked them.
Lein nodded and told her to choose the aura crystal he would use.
Lein also thought hard about which aura crystal to choose.
There are several options, for example, in the Swordsman crystal: (Aura Crystal: Swordsman - Void race), (Aura Crystal: Swordsman - Desert race), (Swordsman - Dragon race),...
There are also cultivation aura crystals, support aura crystals, etc...
Lein tried to find information about the promotion mission in the regional chat, but strangely enough, there was no detailed information. All they knew was that level 1 promotions happened when they reached level 10.
Lein immediately decided on his choice and finally chose (Crystal Aura: Swordsman - Holy Human Race).
The reason was simple: of all the crystals he got, there were only a few that had holy words in them. So he chose the human flavour.
Nita has also finished choosing, she chose (Crystal Aura: Archer - Elf Realm race)
"Nita, big brother will go first. You after, okay?" Lein asked Nita next to him.
"Um, um..." Nita nodded her head.
Then Lein handed over the promotional item on the system panel.
[Tier 1 promotion mission, handing over promotional items?]
"Yes."
As Lein agreed, he felt his body being pulled by a force, his vision instantly darkened, and then he saw that he was looking at a completely different scene than before.
"Brother?" Nita asked confused.
She saw Lein standing there 1 second ago, but now he was gone.
Nita's worries didn't last long, it would be strange if it happened on Earth, but it was a different world now.
He stopped thinking about it and then took out all the bodies of the gorillas they had killed earlier.
[Fur Gorilla Corpse Extraction Successful, Obtaining...]
- Hard feathers x2
- Gorilla tendon x1
- x6 Energy Crystal

Lein, on the other hand, was standing on a huge white altar. In front of him was nothing but an old man dressed in pure white.
"Are you awake, young man?" The old man asked kindly.
Lein looked at the old man and couldn't help but feel depressed, he felt that the old man in front of him was dazzling and gave off a pressure that made him depressed. It was like a huge storm and Lein was at the centre of it.
The old man saw that Lein was in great pain, then he waved his hand and Lein was finally able to look at him.
This time it was different, he felt that the old man in front of him was his own grandfather. He even wanted to hug him and sit on his lap.
"Mbluh... Mblehh" Lein shook his head, not wanting to be affected by the old man's aura.
"Come, you want a promotion, don't you?" The man immediately shot the contents of Lein's mind.
Lein shuddered and was once again surprised by the old man.
"Yes sir, I want a promotion," Lein replied humbly.
"Easy, easy," the man waved his thin white hand.
"You just need to test your talent on this tool," the old man continued, pulling a strange stone out of the air.
The stone is 1 metre high and has numbers written on it.
(Initial Universe Stone) The Universe Power contained within can calculate an individual's destiny, talents and abilities.
"How do I use it, sir?" Lein asked, looking at the old man in front of him.
"Just place your hand on the stone, the higher the number the better," the old man explained, then he took out some crystals, a total of 9 crystals of different sizes.
The crystals floated in front of the old man, he proudly took them out and let Lein inspect them.
(Crystal Core: 1st level - 100 points)
- Level cap: 20
- Additional exp +10%.
- Skill 1: (Strong Slash) Slashes powerfully over 10 metres. Cooldown 5 minutes.
- Skill 2: (Sword Energy) Increases attribute for 10 seconds. Cooldown 3 minutes.
- Skill 2: (Double Slash) Attacks twice, dealing critical damage. Cooldown 2 minutes.
(Crystalline Core: 2nd level - 200 points)
(Crystal Core: 3rd level - 300 points)
...
Level 1 is the smallest crystal and has the lowest points. And the Eternal Crystal is the largest, costing 1500 points.
"How?" The old man asked patiently. He seemed to have done this a lot.
Lein, who currently held the Immortal Crystal - 1500 points - was trembling, he felt as if he had been caught stealing.
The old man smiled kindly.
"Hufhhhhhhh..."
Lein breathed a sigh of relief, he thought the old man knew what he was doing.
Lein's heart was beating very fast at the moment.
In the Eternal Cristal Core he saw that there was a duplicate function.
"Can I duplicate the item I'm holding, even if it's not mine?" Lein asked silently.
He seemed to have found a bug in his SSS talent.
[Crystal Core: Immortal, duplicate 1000 times?]
"Yes."
Immediately, the duplication was successful, and inside Lein's bag were 10 slots filled with Immortal Core crystals.
"What? ....." Lein's heart trembled with fear.
For when he performed the duplication, the old man sensed that there was something strange about lein and the immortal crystals.
The old man withdrew all the crystals, and Lein's body remained motionless.
