When he advanced to Grade-3, Ma Wen's total level directly soared from Level 10 to Level 13. Therefore, he had two Free Attribute Points to allocate.
However, there was a problem. His Dexterity was now as high as 25 points, and he had the two super traits, Leaping on Walls and Gliding Light Glimpse.
It could be said that his Dexterity was already very strong. If he wanted to get the next Dexterity specialty, he had to reach 29 points.
29 points was the attribute limit of all human creatures. If he wanted to break through this limit, he had to use various methods to improve his life level.
For example, obtaining Divinity was one way.
Ma Wen had the Virtual Divine Spark and the Divinity of the Twin Serpents Annihilator, so breaking through the limit of 29 points was not a problem.
The key was that his Dexterity had exceeded his other attributes by too much.
As for the other main attributes, Strength was still only 15 points under the Stone Giant's Belt, and Constitution was only 13 points.
Strength affected the Ranger's offensive ability. No matter how fast Ma Wen's sword was, it would be useless if he could not break through the enemy's defense.
Constitution, on the other hand, restricted the effect of Dexterity.
Without enough Constitution as a fulcrum, super high Dexterity was like a castle in the air. There was no way to exert its effect.
Ma Wen vaguely remembered that the limit of Dexterity that one point of Constitution could support was two points.
It was almost a ratio of one to two.
In other words, 13 points of Constitution could support 26 points of Dexterity. If Ma Wen continued to put all two points of Dexterity into Dexterity, even if his Dexterity reached 27 points, he would still only be able to exert the effect of 26 points of Dexterity.
This was the limitation of Constitution.
No strong person developed abnormally. This was one of the reasons. The six major attributes complemented each other. It could only be said that one should specialize in some areas and be biased in others.
Ma Wen understood this very well.
However, the problem was that he felt that it was a pity to allocate such precious Free Attribute Points to Constitution, Strength, or other attributes.
Free Attribute Points were very rare.
As for Constitution and Strength, there were other ways to improve it.
He thought about it and finally allocated one Free Attribute Point to Dexterity. This way, his Dexterity reached 26 points, reaching the limit that Constitution could support.
As for the rest, he temporarily put it aside in case he needed it.
After this war, he needed to improve his strength and physique.
"Strength increased to at least 20 points. Obtained Super Strength trait."
"As for Vitality, I need to increase it to at least 17 points. Only then can I fully unleash the combat power of a Ranger or Nightwalker."
Ma Wen secretly made up his mind.
After distributing the Attribute Points and Skill Points, Ma Wen checked the data panel again.
In the quest window, the Dark Road quest had disappeared.
The quest reward also appeared.
10,000 experience points.
There was nothing else.
This result did not surprise Ma Wen. He had a feeling that the game system in his body was like a guide. The purpose of its existence was to help Ma Wen integrate into this world as soon as possible.
Other than that, it had no other use.
However, no matter what, Ma Wen was really grateful for these digitized instructions. Otherwise, he really wouldn't know what to do after he transmigrated.
And 10,000 experience points was also very satisfying for Ma Wen.
In Fernand, it was very difficult to gain experience. Even if he shot a Red Dragon and doubled the dragon's experience, it was only 16,000 experience points.
The further he went, the harder it was to level up.
Now, Ma Wen had accumulated nearly 30,000 experience points, of which 20,000 were Slaughter EXP and 10,000 were Universal EXP.
Even so, it was still not enough to level up the Nightwalker. A Level-5 Nightwalker required 35,000 experience points.
And to advance to the Lord of the Night, the prerequisite was Ranger Level 8 and Nightwalker Level 9. In other words, the total level bonus that could be provided by a part-time job was at most four levels.
Even if Ma Wen used the most meticulous method to advance to the Legendary level, he would at least need a Level-8 Ranger, a Level-9 Nightwalker, and a Level-6 Arcane Warlock (6 divided by 2 equals 3).
8 + 9 + 3 = 20.
Just the peak of grade 4, quasi-legendary. If he wanted to go further and advance to the Legendary level, he would need to be a Level-9 Ranger or a Level-10 Nightwalker.
So the most important thing was to increase the level of these two main jobs. After all, the second part-time job of [Frontline Gunner] not only had an experience penalty, but it was also not included in the total level.
It was more effective to concentrate the valuable experience points on the Nightwalker and Ranger.
As for the part-time job, only God knew if the Arcane Warlock profession could advance to grade 2. This was related to whether Ma Wen could awaken his bloodline.
With Ma Wen's talent, it was already a miracle that he could awaken the Arcane Warlock profession. It would not be surprising if he stayed at grade 1 for the rest of his life. So, he did not expect this part-time job to help him much on the road to the Legendary level. Unless …
"Unless I can find a way to break through to grade 2."
"If that's the case, I'm afraid I really have to deal with the Crowland Family. After all, they are the ones who understand the Arcane Warlock best."
To be honest, Ma Wen was a little resistant to this family that suddenly appeared.
But he had mostly accepted this fact.
If he was not a member of the Crowland Family, he would not have been able to awaken the power of the Arcane Warlock. The legacy of the White River Valley had always been a little strange. Since his grandfather's generation, there was only a first name and no surname. Back then, Ma Wen had asked about this, but his father had been vague about it.
Now that he thought about it, his grandfather was also quite conflicted. He could not choose another surname to pass on, but if he used Crowland as his surname, it would be easy for the Lavis Royal Family to find him.
So, he simply did not use a surname.
"Ma Wen Crowland?"
Marvin leaned back on the comfortable pillow and thought in a daze.
Not a bad name.
…
In the east of the White River Valley, a temporary camp had been built.
This place was no more than five miles away from the mountain where the Ogres were. The terrain between the two sides was open, making it difficult for a sneak attack.
The adventurers and logistics teams were busy building all kinds of facilities.
The war assembly order issued by Ma Wen had clearly stated the enemy's situation.
More than 40 Ogres!
This was a very terrifying number.
After all, every Ogre was an Elite by nature. They were born with the strength of a peak grade 2.
Most of the Ogres would quickly reach adulthood. When they entered their twilight years, they would voluntarily leave the tribe and choose a place they liked to slowly wait for their lives to pass.
That was why it was rare to see young or old Ogres in the Ogre tribe.
There were more than 40 Ogres, and most of them should be grade 3.
There was also a large group of grade 4 monsters. As for the Legendary … The adventurers did not know much about them.
But the intelligence in Ma Wen's hands clearly showed that there was definitely a Legendary existence in the Ogre tribe.
There might even be a wizard!
This was a very troublesome matter, especially after Daniela's visit.
Hathaway was far away in the Three-Ring High Tower. She had recently been researching a secret spell and had no time to care about Ma Wen. Otherwise, if they had the help of a Legendary wizard, the war would be much simpler.
"If it's a Legendary Ogre, Ibu should be able to handle it, or at least hold it back."
"But the rest, including the monsters on the mountain, can only rely on our own strength."
Ma Wen rode on his horse and slowly patrolled the camp.
Everyone in the camp saluted when they saw Ma Wen.
The matter of the Bloody Cross had already spread, and now every adventurer was in awe of Ma Wen.
Before preparing for the war, he had already made the most appropriate arrangements for the White River Valley.
Anna and Vigny were still in charge of the rear, and half of the guards were left for them. At the same time, there was also an Phantom Assassin and a Dark Guardian.
With them, it was enough to deal with any possible troubles in the territory.
Constantine was still dealing with Daniela and Oren. The only thing to be thankful for was that his cousin and the graceful knight captain seemed to be very patient.
Oren even sent a message to Marvin on behalf of Ravis: We're family anyway, so we can discuss the matter of the treasure after the war.
As for how true this sentence was, Ma Wen did not know.
In any case, Constantine's combat power had been pinned down.
But fortunately … [Purple Dazzle] was once again borrowed by Ma Wen.
This thing was a legendary item that could slay dragons. Constantine was also very helpless. Now that he was tied to Ma Wen, he was ready to go all out.
As for Ma Wen, he was quite calm. To him, if the White River Valley and the future territory were compared to a company, Constantine and the others were venture capitalists, while he was the shareholder and the operator of the company. Anyway, he had already given out a lot of empty promises, so it did not matter if he promised more.
The corpse of the red dragon, the gold mine, and more rare materials under the Ogre Mountains — Ma Wen had already displayed the ability of some founders in his previous life to bluff for venture capital projects.
The project had not even started, but the beautiful future seemed to be within reach.
He had dragged all the forces he could gather into the water.
… …
The Knights and Mages of the Silver Church were ready, led by White-robed Collins.
Two patrol teams from River Beach also reported to Ma Wen. Along with them were six catapults — a team of twenty-five stone-throwers!
The Tower of Ashes's second grade sorcerer team also arrived on the battlefield today. Their leader was the purple-robed sorcerer who had almost killed Ma Wen at the entrance of the Magog College. Her name was Shirley.
This eighteen-member second grade sorcerer team was formed by the Battle Mages Hathaway had forcibly selected. Every one of them was quite strong.
As for the White River Valley itself, apart from the adventurers on Ma Wen's recruitment list, a dozen guards and some reserve militia would also follow Ma Wen.
But most of these people were acting as messengers. At the same time, Ma Wen also intended to train them.
The real core strength was the seventeen Dark Guardians following behind Ma Wen!
Ma Wen rode on his horse and looked at the smoke rising from the mountains. It was a sign that the Ogres had started a provocation.
Obviously, the humans' large-scale construction would not go unnoticed by the Ogres.
The Ogres were not fools.
They were ready for battle.
War was coming.
