Returning to his secure private room, Su Xiao didn’t bother to enhance his attributes; he just wanted to sleep.
He collapsed onto the bed, not even bothering to remove his clothes, and fell into a deep slumber. Yes, he was that exhausted—intense battles had drained him completely.
Unaware of how long he had slept, Su Xiao was awakened by the sound of gnawing, and when he looked up, he saw the sofa had once again been sacrificed.
"Bubu, co here."
Bubu Wang was enthusiastically gnawing, but upon hearing the voice behind him, his dog body tensed, and he stiffly turned to look at Su Xiao.
Su Xiao’s gaze conveyed a clear ssage to Bubu Wang: ’Co here, and I guarantee I’ll beat you to death.’
"Woof."
Bubu Wang whimpered, lowering his head and tucking in his tail, a typical display of admitting fault but incorrigible.
"Don’t chew on the sofa anymore; chew the dumbbells. The sofa is expensive."
Yawning, Su Xiao got up, and after freshening up, he felt invigorated, his fatigue completely gone.
Bringing Bubute Ni to Xia’s restaurant, they had a hearty al before Su Xiao headed to the Attribute Strengthening Hall.
He was accustod to enhancing his attributes first—the sooner he did it, the quicker he adapted.
At the Attribute Strengthening Hall, Su Xiao found it familiar and easy to navigate. After paying 100 Paradise coins, he gained access to an Attribute Enhancent Cabin.
[Welco to the Attribute Enhancent Cabin. Your nude attributes are as follows.]
Power: 32
Agility: 32
Stamina: 23
Intelligence: 32
Charm: 3
[The Hunter can freely allocate 25 attribute points.]
[Beep, detected that the Hunter’s main attributes are Power, Agility, Intelligence. Please prioritize enhancing these three main attributes.]
Previously, Su Xiao had realized that for close combat, the importance of the Physical attribute was no less than that of Power, Agility, and other attributes.
The Physical attribute results in nurous capabilities, such as endurance during battle, recovery power, body strength, and resistance to abnormal states.
When fighting with violators, Su Xiao’s Physical attribute temporarily reached 35 points, making what was originally a lethal poison non-lethal; the damage he received was significantly reduced.
This ti, possessing 20 attribute points, Su Xiao decided to lean towards improving his Physical attribute. Close combat requires support from the Physical attribute, especially for a Lone Ranger like him.
Moreover, if the Physical attribute was too low, he could not significantly enhance his Power, Agility, and other attributes, or else the consequences would be severe, leading to physical breakdown.
After so consideration, Su Xiao’s final distribution was: Power 6, Agility 5, Intelligence 4, Stamina 10!
Su Xiao directly raised the Stamina attribute to 31 points; factoring in the King of Arena’s bonus, his Stamina attribute reached 33 points.
[Attribute distribution complete, enhancent comncing. Enhancent will result in great pain. Do you want to use the anesthesia function? This function is free.]
This so-called anesthesia function had never been used by Su Xiao, nor did he plan to, as it would affect the enhancent effect.
The Attribute Enhancent Cabin began operating. Unlike previous tis, this enhancent did not induce an unbearable sensation, closely related to the Physical attribute enhancent.
His body could already handle the load of Power, Agility, and Intelligence, making the enhancent seamless.
The enhancent ended swiftly, and Su Xiao rotated his shoulders, confirming that choosing to enhance his Stamina was the right decision.
Clenching his fist, a surge of power coursed through him, prompting Su Xiao to take a deep breath, noticeably increasing his lung capacity, while his organs grew more vibrant.
Moreover, his muscles experienced qualitative rather than quantitative changes. His physique remained unchanged, but his resistance to blows improved significantly.
Su Xiao took several deep breaths, his breathing akin to a whale drawing water. Conservatively, after a deep inhalation, he could hold his breath for five to ten minutes, or even longer.
Su Xiao’s nude attributes now were:
Power: 38
Agility: 37
Stamina: 33
Intelligence: 36
Charm: 3
The 3 points of nude Charm attribute remained an eyesore. Marvin Hwaltz once advised Su Xiao on balanced developnt, but Su Xiao couldn’t figure out the significance of the Charm attribute for him.
Marvin Hwaltz likely ant comprehensive developnt in terms of battle capabilities, like Power, Agility, Stamina, and Intelligence. Su Xiao’s earlier low Stamina attribute was what Marvin referred to.
As for the role of the Charm attribute, Su Xiao believed it was an attribute cultivated by Summoners or diplomatic personnel.
For example, the charming young woman he encountered had a Charm attribute above 25, yet upon seeing her, apart from the urge to rub her face into the ground, he wasn’t forcibly enchanted.
After all, dedicating dozens of attribute points would naturally result in innate favorability.
Instead of strengthening the invaluable attribute points in Charm, Su Xiao preferred to enhance his Power attribute.
Enhancing Charm might result in being rubbed into the ground, whereas Su Xiao preferred to be the one doing the rubbing; the two were incomparable.
When interacting with storyline characters, Su Xiao relied more on force and scheming. It correlated with the nature of the storyline characters he encountered—most were not amiable.
For now, there was no need to improve his Charm attribute; there would be opportunities to enhance it later.
Leaving the Attribute Strengthening Hall, Su Xiao headed straight to the Skill Upgrade Hall.
The grandiose Skill Upgrade Hall remained as majestic as ever, its floor spotless, its decor luxurious, exuding a stately aura.
Inside the Skill Upgrade Hall, people bustled about, with so Contractors gathered to discuss the reasonable allocation of skills.
Su Xiao wasn’t concerned about skill allocation; his skills were few and rely needed to be upgraded to the top level.
Skills were rely supportive; strategy and judgnt were crucial in combat, as countering an enemy’s strike wasn’t just about activating a shield.
Grasping opportunities, leveraging terrain advantages, assessing the enemy’s strengths and weaknesses, and determining if there were other dangers nearby—all these factors demanded consideration.
A minor misstep could result in death, making the margin for error in battle nearly zero. Instead of focusing on fixed skill combinations to combat foes, Su Xiao preferred improvisation.
While battling so Contractors, Su Xiao noticed that before they launched attacks, there would be a slight pause of a fraction of a second—that was when they deliberated on which skill to use.
In that fraction of a second, Su Xiao had already slaughtered the enemy in one strike.
Entering the Skill Enhancent Hall, a Bunny Girl trotted over, her upper body clad in a black low-cut outfit, and her legs adorned with black stockings. Despite the revealing attire, this Bunny Girl embodied cuteness without compromising her chastity.
"Greetings, Contractor. I am service personnel number 1312 of the Skill Upgrade Hall."
The Bunny Girl sidestepped, gesturing courteously.
"What service do you require, Contractor?"
This ti, Su Xiao knew that the services here were very professional.
"Upgrade active skills."
"This way, Contractor."
The Bunny Girl led the way, her deanor enthusiastic yet veering towards professionalism during her interaction with Su Xiao.
Soon, Su Xiao arrived at a re-enactnt cabin, sowhat similar to an Attribute Enhancent Cabin, with slight differences in appearance.
"Please."
Su Xiao entered the Skill Enhancent Chamber, and soon as he did, a prompt appeared.
[Please select the skill to be upgraded.]
The selection list contained only one option: Rokushiki: Shave.
[Upgrading Rokushiki: Shave (Active Skill) requires 2000 Paradise Coins.]
Su Xiao ntally remarked on the high cost, but upgrading skills was a necessity.
