Chapter 53 - 53: 053 S-level Rewards
Chapter 53: 053 S-level Rewards
Translator: 549690339
Inside the Goblin Uprising Secret Realm Instance.
As the reward calculation began, the sight before Dean McKenzie’s eyes changed.
The Goblin Tribe vanished, leaving him alone in a pure white reward calculation space.
The system notification arrived as expected.
[Reward calculation for Instance clearance is starting!]
[You have cleared the first stage through the Lord’s Path and gained a basic
C-grade reward!]
[You’ve tamed all the Goblin Tribes in the Forest, solving the survival threat of the Goblin Tribe in the forest, and have been elevated to A-grade evaluation!]
[You’ve left a leader in the Goblin Tribe who can guide the tribe according to your will, and your grade has been bumped up to S-minus!]
Se??ch ?ew?o?e?/o?g o? ?oo?l?
[Your final reward grade is S-minus!]
[Do you wish to initiate the reward calculation for this stage?]
Seeing the system prompts that ceased to refresh, and the massive gold “S-” on the screen, Dean froze on the spot.
He really hadn’t expected his last operation to shoot his reward grade from A to the unprecedented S level.
Even if it was “S-” it was still S level!
Ever since his first instance, Dean wasn’t short on information about instances.
From what Dean knew, an S-grade evaluation of an Instance was extremely difficult to achieve.
The rewards for an S-grade evaluation were notorious in the game.
Just how notorious, Dean didn’t know, as he had never received an S-grade evaluation before.
But now, Dean had a chance to find out.
“Calculate rewards!”
As Dean called out excitedly, system prompts began refreshing.
[Reward calculation complete. You will receive the following rewards:
Awards have been delivered!]
As the system notifications refreshed, the free attribute points on Dean’s panel jumped from 5 to 25.
At the same time, a scroll and a puppet appeared in his hands.
Name: Basic Skill Enhancement Scroll
Description: Special item that can enhance the attributes of one basic skill.
Name: Substitute Puppet
Description: Special item. When you take fatal damage, it will block it for you and teleport you to the puppet’s location.
ps: Effective until level 40
Since his own talent could already increase his attributes and enhance his skills, Dean wasn’t particularly excited when he saw the first two S-level rewards.
It wasn’t until he saw the attributes of the Substitute Puppet that he beamed with joy.
After all, who wouldn’t love an item that could save their life?
After carefully putting away the Substitute Puppet, Dean turned his attention to the attribute points and the Skill Enhancement Scroll.
If he put all 25 free attribute points into Spirit, he would instantly break the 60 benchmark.
But Dean hesitated.
Should he blindly push his Spirit, or add some to Agility so he could run faster when he meets a foe he can’t defeat?
“Forget it, leave it for now, let’s first study this Skill Enhancement Scroll!”
With that, Dean picked up the Enhancement Scroll. This was his first time seeing such an item.
“Looks like skill enhancement isn’t my exclusive privilege. Others can also enhance their skills using items. Just wonder about the effect.”
With that thought, Dean’s gaze landed on his list of skills.
Enhanced Bone Fang, Dual-powered Bone Shield.
Meditation, Summon Skeleton, Appraisal Skill, Beast Intuition, Slow Curse.
“I just realized I have quite a number of skills. Which one should I use this magic item on?
“Bone Shield!”
Dean McKenzie made the decision without much hesitation.
Although Bone Shield had just been empowered and was already fairly overpowered, if it could become more so, Dean would be delighted. But unfortunately, it failed.
[This is not a basic skill. You cannot use the Enhancement Scroll on this skill!]
“It can’t be used?”
Dean raised an eyebrow, his gaze then falling on Bone Fang. Still no good.
“So, skills that have been enhanced can’t be further improved with scrolls. In that case, Summon Skeleton probably can’t be used either?”
Dean said, casually tossing the scroll. Unexpectedly, a system prompt popped up.
[Successfully used the Skill Enhancement Scroll on Summon Skeleton!]
“It worked?”
Dean was dumbfounded: “Didn’t I already enhance Summon Skeleton? How did it still succeed in enhancing?”
“Could it be because my enhancement was aimed towards the summoned creature, not the skill itself?”
That could be the only explanation Dean could think of.
The use of the Skill Enhancement Scroll was very quick.
In less than a minute, the enhancement was done.
[Your skill, Summon Skeleton, has been enhanced!]
“Is it done?”
Excited, Dean immediately opened the attributes of Summon Skeleton.
Skill: Summon Skeleton +1
Level: 1 (89/100)
Incantation: Servant of bone, explore the truth of death
Effect: Summons an 8th level undead creature (Skeleton)
Concurrent Summons: 2/4
Mana Cost: 15 per summon (1 per 30 minutes per summon for maintenance)
Looking at these enhanced attributes, Dean fell silent.
“The effect of this enhancement… Barely satisfactory, I guess!”
After seeing enhancements like Bone Fang and Bone Shield, the enhancement from the Skill Scroll felt a bit lackluster to Dean.
What Dean didn’t realize was that the enhancement he saw as slightly lacking would be greatly sought after by others.
“Forget it, let’s just pretend this reward doesn’t exist. No, actually, it’s not altogether useless!”
Dean suddenly remembered that he had been worried about how to explain using the enhanced skills in the future. Now, with this, he had an explanation.
“But there is a problem, how can I logically tell others that I got this thing?
I’ve got it!”
Dean’s eyes lit up.
He made the system prompt about achieving an S-rank score visible and took a picture of it.
“I’ll send this to Anthony!
Have him make a copy. Now if I use an enhanced skill later, I can at least justify one!”
Just as Dean finished taking the picture, another system prompt appeared.
[You have collected the instance rewards. The instance challenge is now complete!]
At the same time as this system prompt, Dean vanished from the pure white space and returned to the Goblin Forest.
As soon as Dean came back, the Goblin Uprising scroll in his hand started to heat up.
Meanwhile, the system prompt refreshed again.
[The status of your Instance Scroll, Goblin Uprising, has changed. Please check! ]
Dean was taken aback, his gaze once again falling on the Goblin Uprising scroll.
Name: Goblin Uprising Instance Scroll
Challenge Level: 21
Description: You have completed the first phase challenge with an S-level evaluation, activating the second phase of Goblin Uprising. Please initiate the challenge once you reach Level-21.
As Dean was staring at the scroll, a voice came from his side: “Huh, you’re quite lucky, managing to get a chained instance scroll like this!”
