Chapter 581

The item that Ian made in Tiver’s Forge wasn’t just the Celestial Dragon Warlord Orb .

The best pieces of equipment made with each part of the weapon were combined into one .

Of course, all other items had a lower performance than the Orb, but it wasn’t comparable to the first one .

Once all of his equipment had been equipped, Ian’s combat power became stronger than ever .

That was a bit of an exaggeration though since their specs were just 70 percent of the original equipment .

If he went back to the Dimensional Mirror with the current specs, Ian might really be able to fly .

So where was Ian heading to after making satisfactory specs?

“Battle Training Camp… However, do I still have to make a growth?”

Ian hastily went to the ‘Battle Center’ coordinates .

After being stuck in the smith, Ian was surprised when he heard that a ‘Battle Center’ was created .

And it wasn’t that Ian was there because he didn’t know of the training center .

Surely, he wasn’t aware at first, but Mark Oliver, who had found the center, told Ian through a personal message .

However, Ian at that time had already selected the option of ‘item production’ in the smith, which turned him a bit impatient .

Ian recalled the conversation he had with Mark Oliver .

Mark Oliver: Ian, where are you?

Ian: I’m setting up equipment in the forge… What is wrong?

Mark Oliver: I’m in the south of the village with Lichao right now, and I discovered a new content called the ‘Battle Center’ .

Ian: Oh oh, really? I never saw that even after exploring the whole village .

Mark Oliver: Me too, I think the building was created just recently .

Ian: By the way, why would you share this advanced information with me…? I’m not sure if I can be of any help to you .

Mark Oliver: Hahaha, as you might have already noticed, the content of the Warrior’s Village is a composition that opposes the Devil . Maybe the ones in the same faction need to help each other in order to win .

‘That Oliver guy, is a real character . ’

Impressed with Mark Oliver’s message, Ian was feeling like repaying him with one or two pieces of equipment .

“Let’s see… I think this is about it . ”

Ian went south to the vacant lot of the village . There was a building there that he had never seen before .

Ian smiled as he moved toward the entrance .

Tring-!

[You have entered the ‘Battle Center’ . ]

[Since you’re a ‘Recruit’, you can enter the B grade difficulty training room . ]

Ian, who went inside the training center, looked around .

The first thing he looked for was Mark Oliver and Lichao .

However, the two couldn’t be seen anywhere .

‘Hmm, I guess the training is done individually . ’

Ian shook his head as he once again thought about the information that Oliver had given him .

According to Oliver, the training center could supposedly raise one’s ‘special ability’ .

Mark Oliver: We need to find out more, but I think we have to practice some ‘special ability’ in here .

Ian: Special ability…? What is that?

Mark Oliver: I think it is a new kind of stat that has never been seen in Kailan before . I just entered, and I don’t know anything yet . Perhaps we’ll find it at the end of the battle practice…

‘He hasn’t contacted me yet . Oliver doesn’t seem to have finished his training yet…’

When he found room B’s door in the training center, Ian smiled .

There was only one day left before the event was over .

In the meantime, if only the content of the combat training would be advanced enough to satisfy Ian, then he might be able to get a lot of public value .

‘The special ability stats seem a bit nice, isn’t it?’

Ian stepped into the door without hesitation .

Ian’s form was caught by a blue light and was sucked in somewhere .

* * *

Creating a new piece of content in Kailan wasn’t easy .

Overnight work didn’t mean that it could be finished .

For that very reason, Na Ji-chan and the other planning teams decided to open the content by modifying the previously scheduled contents .

That was the ‘Battle Center’ and ‘special ability’ .

Originally, it was intended for the content to be released once the users reached the elite ranks .

When Ian including the other two with him had the content cut off, they opened it quickly for them, creating the same content with a lower level of difficulty than the original one .

It was virtually impossible to add new content to raise the public values in the village, so it would provide a way to catch up with the later public values much faster .

Of course, the existing main content of the users wouldn’t be able to use the Battle Centers .

However, in their case, it was only a matter of time for the trio to get back what they lost .

During the main quest, they weren’t able to enter the training center .

And just before the exhausting work was done, Na Ji-chan said, “Hu, this should be good enough… The trio might be able to extract more than what they have lost . ”

Just as Na Ji-chan said, the content of the ‘Battle Center’ was in many ways better than what Ian was expecting .

First, the difficulty of the training center .

It wasn’t that hard for Ian, but looking at the difficulty, quite a few users weren’t able to complete it with a single try .

‘Surely, I did the right thing when I decided to invest time in equipment first . ’

Perhaps, if it wasn’t for the equipment that Ian had made, he might have had to spend more time there .

Second, the special ability was a reward from the training camp .

[You have successfully completed the first training course . ]

[Cleared the training room difficulty B, you are now qualified to challenge C difficulty . ]

[You can now choose a Brave ability . ]

[Warrior Ability, an ability that works only in the ‘Brave Canyon’ . ]

[After being promoted to the ‘Brave’ rank, all of your Brave Abilities will be reset, and you will be allowed to choose more powerful ones . ]

[You can open up to two Brave Abilities . Please choose carefully . ]

[Talk to ‘Remit’, the battle instructor of the Battle Center, to reset all of your warrior stats . ]

The special abilities were called ‘Brave Abilities’ . They were much more diverse and interesting than Ian had expected .

– Brave Ability

A . Valor

As the ‘Valor’ ability increases, the ‘attack’ ability of the warrior increases significantly . But in proportion, the ‘defense’ stat will be lowered slightly .

(Check Details)

After completing the first training . There were over twenty kinds of special abilities that appeared in front of Ian .

Because of that, Ian wasn’t sure what he wanted to pick .

‘There is… a lot of them . ’

There were many kinds of ‘Brave Abilities’ . However, there was one thing that these abilities were similar in .

That was to strengthen one stat and in exchange, downgrade another .

For that reason, a user that was selecting a special ability had to choose a stat that went well with his or her play style .

‘I need to see it, Valor and Will . And the Explosive Force . Expertise and Runaway too…’

Ian recalled his usual combat style and compared each of them to the abilities .

However, with every comparison, he started to like each one .

‘I’ll have to see which one is the most efficient one for me . ’

Ian started to look at each of the stat and started to analyze the efficiency of each one .

It took quite a lot of time, but he thought it was worth it .

‘Well, Valor isn’t so bad, but after all, it won’t be as efficient as the Explosive Force . ’

Rare stats increase the attack power, and explosive stats increase skill damage .

If Ian was a warrior or an archer, or before using the magic of the spirits, he would have opted for Valor instead of Explosive Force .

Rather than the attack factor, it was more helpful to have a higher DPS .

But Ian had a great magic skill as of the moment called the ‘Infernal Fire’ and the best spirit ‘Magbi’ .

In a situation where Fire was being used as a normal attack, skill damage was more efficient than attack power .

‘Kay, the only ones left to compare each other with are Explosive Force and Expertise . ’

In the case of Expertise’s stats, it greatly enhanced the career stats .

And for Ian, who uses spirit attack as his primary attack, this stat could be a minor stat .

The spirit magic’s damage affects the spirit spell, and it was a stat that boosted the summoning power needed by the spirit magic .

In addition, other occupation stats such as leadership and affinity would be helpful to manage other summons .

However, unlike the other ones that just downgraded one stat, this one downgraded one’s whole combat stat .

‘Attack, defense, agility, and vitality, etc . The overall combat was a big risk, but…’

Ian was carefully analyzing Explosive force and Expertise’s stats .

And the result…

“Well . I’ll take ‘Expertise’ as the first special ability . ”

With hesitation, Ian chose the ‘Expertise’ stat .

A new system message appeared in Ian’s mind .

Tring-!

[You have opened the Brave Ability ‘Expertise’ . ]

[’20’ expertise has been given by default . ]

[All career stats increased by 10 percent . ]

[All combat stats reduced by 5% . ]

[Users can practice their Brave Abilities by using it repeatedly in the Training Center . ]

[Once the first Brave Ability has been trained up to 100, the second warrior ability will be unlocked . (A Brave Ability can be trained up to 100 . )]

Ian’s head began to work once again .

‘I don’t know how long it will take for the special ability to reach 100… but maybe it won’t be long . ’

Special ability stats could only be used in the Brave Canyon .

Moreover, given that the maximum could be initialized at any time, users didn’t need to spend a lot of time maximizing them .

‘After Expertise reach 100, the job will increase by 50 percent, and the combat will drop by 25 percent . ’

Ian, who checked it all, left the training camp B level .

And with no hesitation, he went to room C that had a higher difficulty .

‘My equipment level is far from elite, but just a few more and I’ll be able to go to rank D . ’

The higher the difficulty of the training center, the faster the special ability would rise .

Ian planned to practice the ‘Expertise’ stats as much as possible .

If he could make up to 100 points, then he would have the chance to get the ‘Explosive Force’ stat .

Tring-!

[Entering the room with difficulty C . ]

Along with a small message, Ian’s shadow got sucked in .

While Ian was heating up in practice, the next morning came .
