Chapter 541: Chapter 258: Special Profession Demon Swordsman, Exaggerated Stats
As the dust settled, Lin Mo casually strolled back to the others.
"Are you okay?"
Deke asked, concerned.
"I’m fine, I’m fine," Lin Mo said with a wave.
"That was too dangerous."
Shefilya said, frowning at him.
"Mr. Lin Mo..."
There were tears in Feney’s eyes. She looked like she wanted to rush over but was too shy to do so.
After all, the battle wasn’t over yet.
However, Lin Mo had already dealt with the greatest threat and had even taken out several other Demons before that. With only a few left, cleaning up the rest was a simple matter.
...
With the crisis averted, the group returned to the cave Lin Mo had carved out.
Now, Lin Mo finally had time to properly sort through his thoughts.
A flood of information had suddenly appeared before his eyes in that instant.
He hadn’t had time to examine it all closely. The most important thing was to grasp that feeling and completely master the fusion of Magic Power and Qi and Blood, but he also had to pay attention to the immediate danger.
Entering that profound state didn’t mean Lin Mo had lost all Perception of the outside world.
In fact, he had already prepared a countermeasure. If he couldn’t finish processing all the information before the attack landed, he would have simply swapped places with the Clone he had prepared in advance.
’Alright, time to go through this one by one...’
First, the upgrades to those two skills had boosted his Basic Attributes, causing his Mage and Warrior Professions to advance to Level 11 almost simultaneously—the threshold for the Elite Level.
Then there was that wondrous sensation of his Qi and Blood and Magic Power intermingling. After fathoming its secrets, Lin Mo had obtained the brand-new Profession he’d hoped for—Demon Swordsman.
But this raised a question—one that Lin Mo had often pondered.
’What would happen to my Professions after completing a special advancement?’
’Would the Warrior and Mage Professions simply disappear, merging to become the Demon Swordsman?’
’If that were the case, what about the Attribute Amplification from future Professional Level-ups? The Demon Swordsman Profession is undoubtedly powerful, but could the Attribute Amplification from a single Profession’s advancement really compare to that of the original two combined?’
In truth, this was a problem only Lin Mo would worry about.
After all, a typical Adventurer could only gain Attribute Amplification from a single Profession, so advancing to a more powerful Profession—let alone a special one—was always a net gain.
Lin Mo had his worries, but he couldn’t just abandon the advancement because of them. He could only push these questions to the back of his mind and act first, worry later.
And now, the result laid out before him completely shattered all his previous expectations.
Lin Mo had considered the possibility that a special advancement like Demon Swordsman wouldn’t affect his original Professions, allowing him to gain their Professional Attribute Amplifications as usual. He had also considered the possibility that the Attribute Amplification from the single Demon Swordsman Profession would be stronger than that of the Warrior and Mage Professions combined. But he had never, ever imagined it would be like *this*—
"Advancement conditions met. Professional Warrior (Level 10) has advanced—Current: Professional Warrior (Level 11)."
"You have gained Professional Attribute Amplification: Strength +10, Constitution +10, Agility +4!"
"Advancement conditions met. Professional Mage (Level 10) has advanced—Current: Professional Mage (Level 11)."
"You have gained Professional Attribute Amplification: Strength +2, Constitution +3, Agility +3, Magic Power +10, Spirit +6!"
"Special advancement conditions met. You have acquired the special Profession—Demon Swordsman."
"Current Special Professional Level: Demon Swordsman Level 1! You have gained Attribute Amplification: Strength +50, Constitution +20, Agility +20, Magic Power +50!"
???
Even Lin Mo, who was used to being a "cheat," was stunned for a long moment.
’Wait, are these Attribute Amplifications for real?’
’The boosts for Warrior and Mage were already outrageous enough, but since it was an advancement to the Elite tier, it was still somewhat understandable.’
’But what the hell is this Demon Swordsman amplification?! It’s like they just mashed the keyboard to get these numbers!’
But after some careful thought, Lin Mo began to see a pattern.
The Demon Swordsman’s Level was not Level 11, like his Warrior and Mage Professions, but Level 1.
’So, does this mean "Demon Swordsman" is essentially an additional Profession, independent of the original system?’
’If that’s the case, the leveling system for Demon Swordsman must be completely different from that of a normal Profession. Perhaps its Professional Level won’t increase to Level 2 until my Warrior and Mage Professions reach Level 20.’
’When I look at it that way, these ridiculous numbers almost seem reasonable... ’
’Reasonable my ass!’
’Not to mention this is purely an extra bonus... Is getting a million dollars all at once the same as getting ten thousand a year for a hundred years? Are they even the same concept?’
After this series of bonuses, Lin Mo’s attribute panel had reached a truly monstrous state.
[Name]: Lin Mo
[Profession]: Warrior Level 11, Knight Level 4, Assassin Level 7, Mage Level 11, Priest Level 10, Ranger Level 7
[Attributes]:
Strength: 122 (+122=244)
Agility: 76 (+114=190)
Constitution: 49 (+85=134)
Spirit: 32 (+60=92)
Magic Power: 122 (+124=246)
Fire Element Affinity: 26% + 26% = 45.24% (after diminishing returns)
Ice Element Affinity: 27% + 12.5% = 36.125%
...
His amplified Attributes now completely dwarfed his Basic Attributes, pushing every one of his stats to a height completely mismatched with his Professional Level.
To put it bluntly, his current Total Magic Attribute was not far off from Flora’s.
Based on Lin Mo’s estimations, Flora’s Total Magic Attribute was probably around 300. And she was a Mage of Level 15 or higher, not far from Level 16!
Of course, the gap in their Basic Magic Power was still massive.
