Chapter 52, Player Upgrade

What a good person!

No, it feels a bit weird to say this, mainly because I’m not sure if this guy is a human.

In short, he was very lucky. Xiao Yang felt that he had indeed met a very good group of big guys!

Not long after, Xiao Yang began to peek into the quiet Justice Squad group chat.

[A real newbie! : Hey guys, does anyone know what the upgrade process is like? ]

Soon, someone in the group answered Xiao Yang's question. Although this group seemed very quiet, it seemed that many big guys would silently peek at the screen. The one who answered Xiao Yang's question was the cultivator. Judging from his name, this big guy should be a player of the Eastern system.

[Cultivator: Upgrading, it seems you've reached this crucial step. Upgrading, upgrading, is more of a barrier to transformation. Only by breaking through it can you move more smoothly towards transcendence.]

Through the explanation of this great cultivator, Xiao Yang gradually gained more understanding about the matter of upgrading.

Each stage of the player has a fixed attribute limit, which is not reached by every player. Depending on the player's situation and circumstances, some can reach the attribute limit, while most are busy moving forward.

Take Xiao Yang for example. If Xiao Yang had not obtained the Pot of Greed, then in the absence of a profession and special talents, it would be impossible for him to reach the attribute cap of 20 points at level 10 relying solely on the mediocre race panel of an ordinary human.

Ordinary players of the God Game do not need to break boundaries to advance their ranks. Every time they increase their levels by ten, the boundaries will naturally loosen for them. If Xiao Yang does not choose to upgrade, he can still continue to improve his attributes after reaching level ten.

But there are ordinary guys and not-so-ordinary guys in all groups. Among the group of players of the God Game, the unusual ones are guys like Xiao Yang who can touch the limit attributes before a fixed level. At this time, the fixed upper limit becomes a restriction. Therefore, upgrading becomes the way for the God Game to give Xiao Yang and other unusual players a way to move forward.

After upgrading, players can have a higher attribute limit and gain some unique bonuses.

The upgrade process is very simple. At every ten levels, when an attribute reaches its peak, you can choose to upgrade that attribute. You can upgrade a single attribute, or upgrade all attributes that have reached their limit.

But please note that even if many attributes have reached the upper limit, it is best not to add them all at once.

Upgrading is a very dangerous test. Often, the God Game will give you a dangerous challenge based on your situation, which is extremely difficult. This is a necessary process for you to prove to the God Game that you are extraordinary.

The more you ask for, the more dangerous the test will be.

Having said that, the cultivator gave Xiao Yang a warning.

[Cultivator: My friend, I know you may be quite talented, but you must be cautious when leveling up and act within your capabilities!]

[A real newbie! :Okay.]

Xiao Yang's situation is very special. His four attributes have all reached the peak of this stage. Should he act according to the advice of the great cultivator and do what he can, or should he go all out and take it all?
This was a question that Xiao Yang thought about, and soon, he had an idea in his mind. In fact, after obtaining the Pot of Greed, his choice was basically determined.

He is different from other players of the God Game. Even if other players greedily choose to have everything, they may not be able to really push all attributes to the peak in the next stage. The cost and difficulty of improving various attributes are too high, and making trade-offs is inevitable.

After all, the benefits of having everything may not be obvious, but the disadvantages of having everything will be immediately apparent, and the difficulty of the upgrade test will increase dramatically.

But Xiao Yang is different. He has the Pot of Greed. In this situation, even if he knows the extreme difficulty of getting everything, he will definitely get it all.

The name of the Pot of Greed is very fitting for its purpose. Possessing it almost guarantees greed, otherwise it will be useless to you. But does Xiao Yang have the confidence to face the potentially extremely difficult test? If he passes it, he'll have everything he needs. If he fails, he'll lose everything. Players only have one chance to level up every ten levels.

While thinking, Xiao Yang came up with this sentence.

Let's figure it out!

When the enemy comes, the general will come; when the water comes, the earth will cover it. Clear a few more dungeons and get more equipment, and maybe the problem will not be a problem anymore. Oh, and there are also skills and professions.

Now, all of Xiao Yang's attributes, excluding those enhanced by equipment, have been upgraded to 20 points, which is the peak before the upgrade. Since he can no longer upgrade, he can focus more on equipment, skills and professions.

But there is no need to be too anxious. Although Xiao Yang has reached level nine, he is still far from level ten, especially when Xiao Yang looks at the experience number required for the upgrade and the long string of zeros on that number.

Now I should worry more about my jewelworm farm.

Earn more money, it will be useful in any situation.

Continue to raise questions in the group.

[A real newbie! : Does anyone know anything about the Gem Bug? ]

This time it was no longer the man of virtue who poked his head out, but the big boss who said the mage's hand was really useful. He started with an emoticon of a transparent big hand with two big eyeballs, followed by those very direct words.

[The Mage's Hand is really useful: I have it here, and I can also sell you a small elemental pool for cultivating gem bugs, but I don't want spirit coins, I want those pure gems.]

A series of words suddenly popped up. Not only did the wizard stick his hand out, but the ascetic also interrupted.

[Cultivator: The elemental pool still carries the risk of mana leaking. My friend, I have a small concealment array set available. If you don't have any other precautions, it would be best to use it.]

Suddenly, a complete set of equipment and procedures for breeding guides, living environment, and site construction appeared in the conversation between the mage who is really useful and the ascetic. He is worthy of being a big shot, and he has a lot of good things in his hands.

Faced with such a situation, Xiao Yang would certainly not refuse.

[A real newbie! :Good!]

Soon, Xiao Yang's gemworm breeding industry should be able to get started.

The transaction was completed. Xiao Yang sold almost all the pure gems except the Heart of Life and the Flame Gem, as well as a large number of ordinary gems dug out from the gem mines, in exchange for a small element pool, a book on Warcraft, a small concealment array, five clay golems, and a set of each of the three talismans: light body, fireball, and golden light.

The clay golem and the three sets of talismans were given by the cultivators and mages as extra gifts to him, a newbie and junior in the group. Although they were not as precious as the protective leaves of the World Tree, Xiao Yang was very satisfied.

The clay golem can help him mine and do work, and these talismans can also enrich his abilities.

He said thank you to the two big guys obediently.

Basically, I have accomplished everything I wanted to do this time, which is a great success. The next step is to gain experience and prepare for leveling up.
