At this moment, Rein folded his arms and rubbed his chin in thought.
"Now it's an 80% probability!"
"If I add just one more point... wouldn't that be close to the limit?"
Glancing at the remaining Skill Points on the panel, Rein pondered and decided to try adding one more point.
After all, casting a long-range witchcraft attack every second is still a long way off!
By that time, he might have already accumulated enough Skill Points again.
Thus, Rein added another point.
With the remaining Skill Points on the attribute panel changing from 3 to 2, the Bear King Breathing Technique surged to lv9 (1/10000).
A flood of memories on how to train in the Bear King Breathing Technique rushed into Rein's mind…
Meanwhile, a strand of primal force as thick as a chopstick inside his body quickly became as thick as a pinky finger.
What Rein was most concerned about, the success rate of harnessing primal force, had increased to more than 90%, missing just by a sliver the point of perfection.
But that sliver could only be achieved amidst life and death.
At that moment, three system notifications suddenly appeared:
[Congratulations! Your Constitution Attribute has increased!]
[Congratulations! Your Strength Attribute has increased!]
[Congratulations! Your Agility Attribute has increased!]
Leveling up just by adding points, seriously awesome!
Rein looked at the attribute panel and, including the two previous points, this made for a total of five attribute points increase!
Occupation: Wizard Apprentice (Transcendent) lv4 (345/1000) / Knight (Transcendent) lv4 (866/1000) / Beast Tamer (Transcendent) lv5 (64/2000) / Armorer lv1 (17/100)
Remaining Attribute Points: 2
Remaining Skill Points: 2
Feeling the power surging inside him, Rein had the sense that he could slay a small plesiosaur with a mere wave of his hand.
Of course, Rein knew that this was merely an illusion caused by the rapid increase in his own strength.
He had leveled up the Bear King Breathing Technique all the way to lv9, it better be impressive!
Three days flashed by...
Early in the morning on the third day, Master Ganther looked at Rein and immediately his pupils contracted, then his gaze repeatedly sizing up Rein with a slight look of surprise.
After circling around Rein a few times, Master Ganther said, "What a rare talent for a knight, Rein, your new breathing technique has stabilized so quickly."
This remark startled Rein.
But thankfully, Rein quickly realized that Master Ganther, after all, wasn't a clairvoyant; he could only tell that Rein's aura was stable and had increased somewhat, but couldn't determine exactly how much.
It seems I still shouldn't add too many Skill Points at once.
Or perhaps it's better to wait a while before adding points next time.
After all, the magnitude of one's personal strength increase from consecutive additions of points is still a bit exaggerated, Rein thought to himself.
"Follow me!" Master Ganther, after expressing his amazement, said to Rein and began leading the way toward a small boat at the shore.
Rein immediately followed quickly.
It was a small boat about three to four meters long, shaped like a canoe with both ends curved upwards, with paddles at one end, and Bask was already waiting on it, waving excitedly upon seeing Master Ganther and Rein.
After all, Rein was going to challenge the nearby plesiosaur this time!
After both of them got on the boat, Bask started rowing, heading slowly in the southwest direction.
Bask explained to Rein while rowing:
"Right under that island in front, there is a nest of a nearshore plesiosaur. Ever since Master Ganther arrived, it has never dared to come close to the coast, which has made the residents of Randonia Town very happy."
"Originally, this nearshore plesiosaur would occasionally come to Randonia Town to cause trouble. Even though it rarely caused casualties, it would provoke panic, which troubled my father greatly."
Rein nodded, looking up to see indeed several islands stretching in a line, and following the direction Bask pointed, it should be the slightly larger island in the middle.
Soon, the boat gently reached the island, and the three of them jumped off.
After walking a short distance, they reached the bottom of a jagged cliff, where Master Ganther stopped and said, "The plesiosaur is here."
Rein felt a bit puzzled as he looked around; it was all rocks with no visible caves or places to hide.
But quickly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he said: "Master, is the entrance underwater?"
Master Ganther smiled approvingly at Rein, saying, "Exactly, it's under the water."
"Just dive down here and you'll find it. Go on! Believe in yourself!"
Rein leaped and plunged into the sea.
At that moment, Bask, standing beside, showed a worried expression and said: "Master, can Rein really handle it? That's a nearshore plesiosaur comparable to a Great Knight!"
"I have confidence in him!" Master Ganther responded with a smile and then slowly made his way into the sea as well.
"Master… What are you doing?" Continue your journey on empire
Master Ganther turned, giving Bask a look as if he were looking at an imbecile:
"Of course, I have to watch from nearby in the cave. This is training, naturally there are final safety measures. But this isn't something we can tell them in advance, otherwise, this 'trial of conviction' would be meaningless."
"Ah…" Bask's eyes went wide, slightly stunned.
So I've been worrying over nothing...
By then, Rein had already found the entrance to the underwater cave, through a U-shaped channel covered with tough seagrass, and soon, Rein discovered that inside was a whole new world!
