Chapter 1417: Chapter 1430. Level-ups after Training



A notification informed Jack that he gained 109,250 scores. It was more than two times the scores he got when he did the medium difficulty.

The score breakdown showed that 50,000 scores came from destroying the ten supply carts, which made one supply cart worth 5,000 scores. Successfully landing an attack on the herald earned him 30,000 scores. 17,590 scores for the total damage inflicted on the herald. The remaining 11,660 scores came from the enemies he killed after the three-hour mark.

"Oh, man… A little bit more and I can get legendary equipment," Jack lamented. The last time he checked. One piece of the legendary set equipment in the exchange list cost 120,000 scores. This was assuming the exchange list was the same as the lower-difficulty dungeons.

"Too bad these scores can't be carried over," Jack said as he opened the exchange list. The list was the same.

He didn't have any interest in the list aside from those legendary grade items at the top of the list, but they needed more than the scores he currently had. So, he just spent his scores to get items for the guild. He used it to get two pet eggs containing the Crimson-maned Lion for Beastmasters and two Power Cores of Courage for the Technocrafts.

He was not totally without gain, though. He received 32,700,000 exp points and 10,500 mana cores from the 109,000 scores.

He wished he could enter again to try to get a score of 120,000. Unfortunately, the hard difficulty of the Ancient Battleground Legacy Dungeon had a longer cooldown than the Ice Throne Legacy Dungeon, which was five days. He wouldn't be entering this dungeon again until the situation in Palgrost was resolved.

One thought occurred to him. He entered the medium difficulty of the Ancient Battleground Legacy Dungeon. The herald in this difficulty was only level 50. If he could kill the herald, probably he would score enough points to get legendary equipment from the list.

With that thought, he went through the simulation seriously despite being over-leveled for that difficulty. When he faced the herald, he went all out but lost.

He ground the herald down to almost twenty percent HP. Despite Jack was over twenty levels above the herald, the eternal grade was still more powerful.

The degree of mana manipulation the herald had allowed him to manipulate his spells as he wished. He also had several nine-rune spells, among which were the Hell Inferno and the Second Sun, which was the spell that killed Jack in hard difficulty.

Jack tried his best. He even managed to land his Rune Technique by utilizing his two clones, but it was not enough.

The herald won by using a trapping spell similar to the one cast by Talia to bind Euphosine. The one that conjured a fiery symbol around the target before binding the target. The herald then cast a mega spell that devoured Jack's HP.

Jack received 51,366 scores, which prompted him to curse. "Are you f*cking kidding me?! This is not that far from when I last did this ancient battleground on medium difficulty. I can only hit the herald once that time. This time I almost killed him. Why are my scores not so different?"

"This is because your level is already too high for this difficulty," Peniel explained. "If you enter a legacy dungeon that is way out of your level, the reward is deducted. The higher your level, the bigger the penalty. From this score, I say you get only 50% of the scores if someone from level 50 achieved the same feat as yours."

"If I can't do this when I'm in level 50, I doubt anyone can," Jack remarked.

"That's why it's very unlikely for one to get legendary grade items from the medium or easy difficulty. You need the hard difficulty for that," Peniel said.

Jack thought she was right. After going through the hard difficulty just now, he didn't think getting 120,000 scores was impossible. He just needed to destroy more supply carts or cause more damage to the herald. He thought destroying the supply carts should be the easier option.

"But won't I get a penalty again when my level went higher?" Jack asked.

"As far as I know, hard difficulty dungeon shouldn't have a penalty," Peniel answered. "Even if it does, it will only start after you pass level 85, which is five levels from the herald. You should be able to get a better result than now when you hit level 80."

"All right. Let's hurry up and level up then, shall we?" Jack motivated himself.

Jack used the scores and exchanged them with another Crimson-maned Lion pet egg and another Power Core of Courage. He donated all those exchanged goods into the guild warehouse, so the members could use their guild contribution points to get those items.

He then used the guild contribution points he received from the donation and exchanged them for the legendary diamond. Only the sapphire and ruby were left in the warehouse now. It might be some time before Jeanny refilled these legendary gemstones. She still had many other uses for her mana cores.

Jack fed the diamond to his Runestone of Spellcasting. Its elemental energies were now 62,500 from the required 100,000 to upgrade.

Out of the five days of training, he leveled up five times. A majority of the exp points came from the Ancient Battleground Legacy Dungeon. All his three classes were now level 76. Too bad Therras didn't get to enjoy the exp points from Legacy Dungeon's scores. Otherwise, its level would be higher than Jack's.

He had 27 free attribute points and 9 free skill points in each class from these level-ups and the ones before. He spent all the free attribute points on his weakest stat, endurance.

He spent 9 free skill points from the Brave Swordsmaster on Ghost Sword. After using his two new sword skills in battle, he figured Ghost Sword was more useful to him than Field of Swords.

His Ghost Sword was now level 10. Each level increased the skill's duration by one second. This skill now lasted 19 seconds.

The 9 free skill points of his Beast Monarch were used to level up Beast Tantrum to level 10. This level-up also increased the skill's duration, by 30 seconds. Beast Tantrum now lasted 9.5 minutes.

For his Time Sage, he spent the 9 free skill points on Invisibility, bringing the spell to level 13. He could now stay invisible for 42 minutes after casting the spell.

After constantly using the runestone of spellcasting, his runecraft skill leveled up to Intermediate Master. The effect his willpower had on the runestones would now further increase.

After those five days, Jack received a message from John that the army had arrived at the rally coordinates. They had also received a reply from Emperor Marcus.
