Is this really a Game?!

Chapter 480 The System Changes Again!

Suddenly the ball in which Reign was coiled up started to shake before the wings unfolded and disappeared into his back. The flames around Wolf disappeared, as did the strange phenomena that happened around Laura and the others as well.

[ The players have become Tier II beings, items that are below rank S will no longer give any bonuses to the players. ]

[ The player has successfully gone through the first evolution and gained further rewards ]

[ Mana heart ( upper-phase ) has successfully evolved to Mana heart ( high-phase ) ]

[ The player has gained further understanding of the rank S ability Lightning manipulation and is close to unlocking one of the 3 more seals needed for improving the rank. ]

[ Lightning manipulation  S ( lvl 132 exp: 13%) ]

Ding!

[ The system will now enter phase two for the players in order to allow them to track their progress easier. ]

[ The level-up requirement has changed from 3 200 000 to 3 200, with the required exp increasing by 100 with each level up ]

[ The players will not receive any exp from monsters below level 100 and of those that are below Tier I. ]

[ Tier II monsters will now give 150 exp at level 100, with an increment of 20 at each level up, and Tier I monster that are level 100 will give only 15, with increments of 2 with each level. ]

Ding!

[ 100 levels of the previous ability status have now been changed to 1, the corresponding level will now be used as a %, with 1 level equaling 1% ]

[ Since the players have reached Tier II, the need for ranking skills has passed and skills will no longer have a grade except for those that are ranked S and above. ]

[ The reason for doing so is because, with the current strength of the players, the difference between a skill that is ranked F and A is no longer a large one ]

[ Author: In order not to fill up too much of the screen and use a bunch of words for this, I have simply posted the whole status screen and the changes in the auxiliary chapter ]

Reign and the others looked at their status screens, surprised by the huge change the system had made.

They understood and preferred the way the exp has been changed, but losing the bonus stats they had gotten from their equipment was not a nice feeling. The abilities also being changed when it came to levels and the percentage was fine, they could still track their progress like before anyway.

"Ohhh, to think the system would change this up by this much so quickly for you," Aethion spoke from inside Reign's head.

'Does it not happen for everybody?' Reign asked as Aethion shook his head.

"One thing you need to know is that the system is not the same at other planets, this particular status screen, the so-called 'exp', and more are all things that have been chosen as they are easiest for you to understand."

"In the universe, what you guys call exp is what we would call Soul Power, which is the power, the part of the soul, identity, and experience of the being you have killed and taken from him."

"The way things work is different as well, some planets would not get events and challenges like this one, and others may not receive weapons or any other items from the system as they had plenty of their own already."

"So, when I was talking to you about levels and things like that, I was honestly just basing it from my world to yours and how it would be translated here, so the words I spoke might not be true for the system you are currently under," Aethion said as Reign took a deep breath.

'Bro, that's a lot of info to just give me, I'll need some time to think that over, but anyway, what you are basically saying is that you actually have no idea what the max Tier one could reach here might be, or what the maximum level for an ability is on Earth, right?'

"Right, also, don't worry if you go to another planet, just like you have already seen, the system you have stays the same, also what the people from that planet speak is automatically translated to you, as are your words to them."

"To give you an example, Lieara and the others that you were with during the first challenge had probably never said exp, nor heard the word exp from your mouth as it was automatically translated to what they use, hell, they might not even use the word level to explain what level they currently are at."

"The more you try to think about it and explain it, the crazier the system becomes, to be honest, so yeah, everybody from a planet has their own special kind of system, it is only after reaching higher realms that the system becomes the same for everybody else, well, almost the same at first."

"But yeah, you don't have to worry too much about those things, you are still way too weak to worry kid, so just focus on becoming stronger."

'Gotcha.' Reign said as he nodded his head before meeting up with Shadow and the others. They all spoke and made their way back to the territory after finally evolving.

They had evolved and finished the territory quest, which meant that more rewards were underway.

[ The players have successfully managed to finish the territory quest, a safe zone will be created around the base the players have previously made. ]

Ding!

[ The players have all received a random rank S item thanks to being able to finish the quest before reaching Tier II. ]

Reign and the others stared at each other before smiles bloomed on their faces. They could see that they had a card that was given to them.

The card was simply there to be torn up since the random rank S item would be brought to them after they did so. They all put the cards back in the inventory before reaching the middle of their territory where everybody was waiting for them.

The people all cheered as Reign and the others managed to evolve and become stronger once again. Even Eldar and the others Transcendents, including Drayce, were there.

They all clapped and smiled at Reign and the others as the latter had truly managed to surprise them over and over again.

From the very beginning of the game, Reign and the others were able to do things that nobody else was able to do, they constantly pushed themselves as hard as possible and always fought against the most powerful enemies they could win in order to be able to go all out and outperform their previous selves.

They rarely rested, and even then, they would at least do some training with their weapons or light sparring sessions.

Eldar and Jack were certain that from now on, the team would only continue to grow more and more powerful until the planet itself could no longer contain them and satisfy their need for more powerful enemies.

Becoming Transcendents would definitely not be an issue for them.
