Who was currently the strongest on Earth?
I wasn't being vain, but it was obviously me. But I knew that there was no assurance that I would remain the strongest in the future!
There were the lucky 114 deities with their unfair advantage and the remaining 113 devas that would learn the 'Unrivaled' skill.
There were going to be devas from not just South Korea's Sunbin guild, but from all around the world. Japan's Nayuta guild, China's Chunlong guild, and other large guilds from Europe, America, and Brazil were going to have some of the best devas as their guild leaders.
There was the ”Demon Lord”, Arman Lagus, who began in an insignificant environment as I had and would lead the liberation forces to free dungeons from the control of large guilds. There was also the ”Mercenary Lord”, Madun Yatekin, who led a mercenary force of twenty-five thousand devas.
There were more powerful players than there were fingers on my hands. Right now, I did not know if I was going to be stronger than any of them.
”But with my stat menu like this and with the equipment I just picked up, it definitely isn't impossible. There are still eight more months until some serious change happens. I just have to find better items to gain more ground. I can definitely get stronger than anyone else!”
My situation right now was definitely cheating, and I had a backup plan that could make me even more of a cheater. It had to do with the fact that I was Unrivaled at level 0.
The future 113 Unrivaled would have to wait to level 500 to learn the skill and would then gain the 20 stat points per level up. On the other hand, I gained the 20 stat points at level 0.
A magistrate of the Heavenly Sect was a normal deva with 10,000 total stat points at level 1000. An Unrivaled who learned the skill at level 500 would have 15,000 total stat points at level 1000.
I, on the other hand, would have 20,000 stat points at level 1000!
I might have fewer skills to use than other devas for the time being, but I was going to have 10 more skill points than the other devas who were going to learn the Unrivaled skill at level 500.
”Well, none of this really matters. If I have the chance to have ten thousand more stat points than other devas, then it's worth the penalty. Alright. Let's just continue like this. I'm doing fine.”
I gathered my thoughts after thinking about this and that.
”Then where should I invest my unused 300 stat points?” I believed that even if I saved the unused points, I would still be able to take on the boss on my own.
I was also confident as I'd watched plenty of videos covering the raids of the Bukhan Mountain dungeon's boss.
”Still, I suppose it's a good idea to use all that I can. It's not like anything bad will happen if I don't save my points. Since I'm planning on a melee class, I shouldn't put any on INT and WIL. My VIT is definitely high enough so all that's left are the already high STR and AGI. Hmm…”
I contemplated between strength and agility.
”Let's go with agility.”
Since I didn't have that much freedom with my points, I decided to go with supporting my physical damage, accuracy, and critical damage.
I needed high strength and vitality so as to not get pushed back by my opponents. There was no doubt about where to spend them.
But if my agility was just as high as my strength, then I would truly become a force to be reckoned with.
Agility affected evasion rate, attack and movement speed, and critical rate. With a high enough agility, one could attack accurately at greater distances with ranged weapons, such as bows and crossbows. In other words, agility affected everything little by little.
Most melee tanks ignored AGI in favor of increasing STR and VIT, but I didn't have to do that as my STR and VIT were already high enough.
I decided to invest the rest of my points into agility.
”One last time before I go fight the boss…Stat Menu open!”
