Chapter 856: Leveling Up

Ning spent forever getting from Level 52 to 100. Just those few levels had taken him over 3 months as earning experience got harder and harder as time went on.         

    

He traveled the continent, going to various places to try and find better dungeons, but no matter where he went, he couldn't find anything above level 80.      

As such, he had to spend that last 20 levels hunting monsters on the outside and using what little exp he could get to grow.     

It was only after he reached Level 100 that he finally gave up on growing anymore in this continent and decided to change continents.     

He arrived at one of the ships that were sailing for the Starsoar Continent to the northeast and got onto it.     

"10 days to reach the other continent?" Ning was surprised. He didn't remember any of his previous sea voyages taking this long. But then, the only time he did travel by ship was in Nulwurn, and that place was littered with islands everywhere.      

In Soaring Star Online, however, there were no stray islands in the ocean, and every island was right next to the continents, almost attached to it through a bridge or some other thing.     

Demons walked the deck of the ship, going about their ways. Some chatted, some quarreled, and some spoke of their dreams to become an apostle of the Demon lords one day.     

Ning simply stayed there, listening to them all.     

As he sat, he remembered something and opened up his skills page.     

He looked at his main skill, Deck of Infinite Fates, and how it was level 2. Then, he looked at his other skill, Fate's Puppet, which was also level 2 thanks to his gaining a skill point after he had reached level 75.     

He received a skill point every time he crossed 25 levels until 150, so he used his first point on his Fate's Puppet skill to improve it. As such, it had become better now, a lot better.     

[Fate's Puppet     

Level 2     

Type: Passive     

Gain FATE stacks whenever you kill an enemy. Killing enemies with a higher level than yours give 2 stacks each. They all stack independently.      

Each Fate stack increases your chance to summon a Rare card by 0.2%.     

Each Fate stack increases your chance to summon a Unique card by 0.1%.     

Each Fate stack increases your chance to summon a Legendary card by 0.02%.     

Can stack up to 100 Fate stacks.     

Change in the chance of pulling a high-ranked card will be used up from Common cards only.     

]     

The skill now affected rare cards as well, and thus improved it by a lot.     

Since the chances were taken from Common card's pull chances, his effective chances had changed to become much better than how they looked.     

With Legendary cards having a 2% chance, Unique cards having a 12% chance, and Rare cards having a 30% chance. Adding onto that the Uncommon chance of 23%, the new chance to summon common cards was 33%, as long as he could keep his Fate Stacks at 100 at all times.     

He now had less than a third chance to draw Common cards, which with his average LUK meant that he was going to pull the other cards more so often.         

    

Especially now that he was summoning two cards at once, even though he could only use a single one, he had twice as good a chance to summon an amazing card.     

Ning was satisfied with this, so he moved on to his next two spells.     

Having reached Level 100, he had obtained a new skill point and he had put off deciding which one he needed to improve.     

Both of the skills were amazing in their own regard. Fate's Aid was brilliant in giving his attacks critical strikes, so if he were to upgrade here, the chances of his attacks dealing more damage were obvious.     

However, his other skill, Fate's Joker wasn't unimpressive either. While it did look like it had a high chance of giving him some debuff, that was only when he summoned common cards.     

If he summoned any cards other than that, the chances of him receiving a buff were high. And as he had noticed, the better the card he sacrificed, the better the buff was.     

As such, Ning stood there, contemplating his next course of action.     

"Hmm… I'm a puppet of fate, huh? Then let's leave it up to that," Ning thought. He turned around to look at the group of demons on either side of the deck.     

They were standing there with harpoons, ready to hit any fish they come across.      

Ning thought, 'if the one on the left gets fish first, I will go with Fate's Aid. If the one on the right gets fish first, I will go with Fate's Joker.'     

He waited for a bit as the many demons tossed their harpoons into the ocean, trying to hit a fish, but they couldn't.     

It was only after nearly 20 minutes did someone finally managed to catch a fish. It was a small one, but a fish nonetheless.     

"Well, that settles it then," Ning thought and pressed level up. When the skill improved, he checked it out with a bit of surprise.     

He wasn't expecting it to turn out this good.     

[Fate's Aid     

Level 2     

Type: Buff     

This skill activates whenever you use a card from your Deck of Infinite Fates. Your chances for critical strikes and critical damage will improve depending on the rank of the card you pull.     

Removes your ability to crit normally.      

Rank : Critical Chance / Critical Damage     

Common: 30% / 250%     

Uncommon: 30% / 300%     

Rare: 30% / 400%     

Unique: 40% / 600%     

Legendary: 50% / 850%         

    

Buff lasts until the cooldown of Deck of Infinite Fates is no more.     

]     

"Wow!" Ning thought. There was a general 10% improvement in the chances on all fronts, with the highest now reaching 50% chance. It was unlikely he would ever sacrifice a Legendary card, but who knew?     

"The critical multiplier is not bad either," Ning thought. "I hope I will get to see what dealing 850% will look like soon enough."
