Chapter 68: Difficult situation

68- Difficult situation

Just when I felt that the situation could not get any worse, I read the system warning and frustration started building up.

Calm down...calm down...ughh fu*k

I tried calming down, but with all the pressure, I was unable to.

According, to the systems warning, due to the Resistance stat being stuck at 46, there is imbalance in my stats. If I am not wrong, then the warning is because my body is unable to bear the addition of so many Free stat points.

It's like, if the foundation of building is not strong and it is constructed to multiple floors, then it will soon collapse.

Here although, the Defense stat is increasing continuously, but the Resistance stat is still stuck. And according to system, Defense stat strengthens my body externally, while the Resistance stat strengthens my body internally.

So, my body needs to be strengthened internally and externally, which is return will help my body to sustain the strain generated.

Although, I cannot take the risk of damaging myself at this point, but if I dont escape now, then it's my death. So, I decided to add 10 Free stat point to the Agility stat first and then observe till where my body can handle the damage.

10 (Free stat points) to the (Agility) stat have been added.

But this time as soon as the system notification rand, I felt slight sharp pain in my muscles. And as I continue to run, I feel that some kind of needle is being poked randomly on my leg muscles.

And that feels extremely uncomfortable especially, when I am in a life and death situation.

Ignoring this pain, I still kept on running.

I slightly turned my head for a second and I observed that, most of the member under the bald guy a.k.a vice leader, are unable to keep up with my speed and according to my speculation, they will soon give up. And only few guys are able to barely maintain the speed, excluding the bald guy of course, since he is at peak demi-human stage.

When he gave the command to his men to chase me and he also started chasing, there was at least 100 meters of distance between us. But now there is almost 90 meters of distance between him & I, and it is still decreasing.

As for the guys behind him, there are two peak Evolver stage and one Low level Demi-human stage men, who are barely able to keep up with the chase. And if observed closely, one can tell that the two guys at Evolved stage are giving their best, but in a minute or less, their speed will also decrease due to fatigue.

As for the guy who is at the low level demi-human stage, he was also showing signs of early stage of fatigue. And in few minutes his energy levels will also go down. He is the only Demi-Human within the group other than the bald guy. And if I am correct and if we fight then, it will take me some time to kill him.

Hence, these underlings are not a real threat to me, but the real threat is the bald guy a.k.a vice leader. He is slowly gaining on me and I dont think I can outrun him.

Maybe it was due to my Intelligence stat being increased to more than 200, I am able to process multiple things at the same time; while running, I am able to think multiple scenarios with a clear mind. After thinking for a moment, I decided to increase my stamina stat.

As increasing the Agility stat will only increase the pain and further damage my body. So, the Agility stat cannot be increased, hence it would be better to increase the stamina stat, as it will increase my endurance and fatigue limit. And I can at least run for a little longer.

So, I told the system to add 15 free stat points in Stamina stat and repeat it after 10 seconds.

15 free stat points to Stamina stat have been added.

After this I opened the shop and told the system to filter and show me the items that can increase my speed.

The next moment, the system showed me the list of items on the screen.

And on the screen, I can see shoes, clothes, accessories (like caps, bands, pendants, rings, etc.)

I took a quick look and realized that most of the item were either expensive or worthless. And the only thing that I can afford and were useful, are the shoes. They are affordable and give high Agility stat boost.

So, after skimming through, I found a shoe name as Wind walker.

Wind walker: Cost= 2000 sikka

This shoe is specifically made with the skin of beast which has affinity with wind element. It is comfortable to wear and also provides high speed boost.

+20 Agility

Would you like to buy (Wind walker)?

(YES) or (NO)

I quickly bought the Wind walker. But the real issue is how am I supposed to wear this. If I stop for even a second then, the bald guy and his underlings will catch up. But if I dont wear this, then I can only continue to run and soon, either the bald guy will catch up or my fatigue will increase.

But suddenly the system gave me a surprising message.

ding

Host has unlocked the (Wardrobe) function.

With the wardrobe function, host can change his attire quickly.

Host has been given 2 Attire slots and if the host requires more slots, then host will have to buy it from the shop.

Would you like to add (Wind walker) to the 1st attire slot?

(YES) or (NO)

Note: If the host wishes to use a particular Attire slot, then only the items that are added to the slot will be equipped to the host and the items that are being replaced will either go back to the different attire slot (If the item is included in a different attire) or it will be added to the (Storage box).

========================================

Let's make a few goals.

Mass Release on Monday:

100 Power stones = 2 Chapters

120 Power stones = 3 Chapters

140 Power stones = 4 Chapters

(Only if I reach this goal, will I be Mass releasing the chapters. Because I have started working in a company, and am tired when I return home. So, If I could see your support through this, I can reassure myself that Yeah, I can still work on this novel and can also start new works for my readers.)
