Victor was suspended in the endless void looked at the shimmering blue screen in front of him. so this is his test results. 2587 points. It should be enough for him to exchange for 2 levels of authority.
In his past life, he could only get half of these points because of the reduction rune's 'Equipment' effect which halved his potential and consequently his allocated points in the test. So he could only get a level 1 Authority and ended up as a semi-PLAYER.
A player couldn't get a chance to increase his authority until he leveled up or used some kind of treasure which he couldn't do or get because of the authority level's limit.
His chance came 70 years later, on the night of reckoning when all the players gained 2 additional authority levels as a reward for a hidden mission about being a player before the reckoning.
As for those players who could not allocate at least 1000 allocation points, they were out of luck, their account will be terminated, which means permanent death, not even their souls will survive.
Now, How should he allocate these points? If he used 2000 points to buy 2 Authority points he will be left with 587 to use for other attributes.
But he is going to take a gamble so after little thought he allocated his points as
AUTHORITY : 00
STRENGTH : 07 + 44
INTELLIGENCE : 13 + 50
AGILITY: 09 + 44
LUCK: 13 + 10
CHARM: 15 + 10
ORDER: 10 + 10
EXP: 7000 / 10000 till level 1
WARNING YOUR AUTHORITY IS 0, ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO CONTINUE ?
YES / NO
Victor looked at the shimmering screen and contemplated.
The most important attribute is Authority as it affects everything from classes and skills availability to level limits. In addition to that, some treasures and skills could only be used if he has sufficient authority.It was not written on the screen, but a player can only level 10 levels per Authority point, and increasing authority would require a huge amount of allocation points.
For example, all the players who have 2 Authority are capped at level 20. And they cannot level up without increasing their Authority.
His father was lucky and got more than 3000 points in his ceremony, so he was able to exchange for a level 3 Authority, which paved his road to become a great elder, then he used all his powers to get treasures and complete dangerous missions, and was able to get to Authority 6 just last year.
The awakening is the only chance a player gets to edit his points directly, after that there are only three methods to increase the attributes.
-
First, the attributes points would be increased by random value each time he levels up, but this value usually depends on luck.
-
The Second method is by training. Someone who wasted most of his time on the Battlefield will naturally get his STRENGTH increased slowly. And someone who spends his time studying will have his INTELLIGENCE increased. Although this method is not very efficient, as the increase tends to be minimal, many strong PLAYERS rose to power using it, thanks to their perseverance.
-
The last method is using Treasures, Forbidden arts, and completing missions which depends on luck and the family's wealth and reach, Like many pay to win games.
As for the ORDER, it will have a very important effect on growth and plays an important role after the reckoning, it is a little troublesome, and he has an easy way to increase it after the ceremony.
“Now it is time to gamble” he thought, While he believed that this method should work, he is gambling with his life by keeping the AUTHORITY to 0, but this is the only way. It is just as his father said “With great risks comes great rewards”.
After taking a deep breath, he pressed YES
PLAYER registered... Congratulations

PLEASE WAIT...
He Felt his power and intelligence increase and it was a very refreshing feeling as every thought and sense of his has become sharper.
Now he is a PLAYER, and he can use artifacts.
No time to waste. He hastily felt his 'equipped' artifact with his mind and quickly activated its one time use effect and specified the AUTHORITY attribute as its target.
Although he couldn't see it, he felt the rune in his hand disintegrate, he knew it was a success and that its effect has been applied.
Now, he could only wait.
The screen went blank, Then it shimmered and a new line appeared in front of Victor's eyes.
