The World Turned into a Game After I Woke up Chapter 225

Chapter 225: 225
Translator: HunterW Editor: RED The Troll Dungeon, at the Faroe Islands… "Grah!" The Trolls screamed in pain as they died from a single blow, but I swung my spear through the horde of Troll Warriors relentlessly . It took me less than five minutes to clear the horde of thirty Trolls and when the last one died, I fell to my knees . I had been hunting nonstop and without rest for more than a day . I laid down on the floor spread-eagled, and let out a sigh . My allied factions and I were actually planning on holding a feast after Mexico, but after what happened at Anton's Store, I just had so many things on my mind to deal with it . I came here to try to clear my mind . "Shit!" But all I did was just tire myself out . I tried to stay focused on the Trolls in front of me and hunted without rest, but I just found myself still thinking about the Judge's Continent and how I was supposed to prepare for it . I also kept thinking about what to do with my 10,377 extra Stat points . " "Ah, I'll go with VIT!" It was safe to say that I really was a coward . That was the whole reason behind my desire to get stronger . I had defeated four of the Monarchs because I was a coward, because I was afraid they would get in my way . "I haven't yet met anyone strong enough to pose a threat to my HP, but it'll be good to raise it nonetheless . " My VIT right now was well over 16,000, and I had almost 10,000,000 HP, but I was still afraid . I did not know what awaited me at the Judge's Continent . It might seem better to just raise my STR and attack power so that I wouldn't need to feel threatened, but my ATT hadn't let me down so far . With just about all of my attacks being critical hits now, I was now strong enough to be called an Emperor . My attack power was basically at its maximum potential . Then again, I did wonder what I would do if my attack power still wasn't enough, which was why I was unsure of what to do with my Stat points . "But the Otadolon stage is about to end, which means this is the endgame . I know my ATT is high enough, but if it isn't, then that means my VIT and HP aren't high enough . I have to be safe . " In the end, it was all just about peace of mind . My base VIT and AGI were at 11,000 points, so I would need 9,000 more points to get VIT up to 20,000 . There was also that additional bonus I could get whenever more than one of my Stats reached 10,000 points . "If it happened then, then it'll happen if more than one of my Stats reaches 20,000 . " Thanks to that, I felt a bit more at ease . "Open Stats Menu . " I opened my Stats Menu and began to raise my VIT . After a little while, a message appeared . ==[Your base VIT has surpassed 20,000 points . Your total VIT points: 25,001 Your base VIT points: 20,000 VIT points increased by items: 4,700 VIT points increased by skills: 300 (King-Emperor's Grand Dignity), 1 (Kiran's Stat point . )]== ==[You will be awarded a bonus for gaining 20,000 points in VIT before anyone else . VIT will be increased by 2,000 points . This bonus is awarded to the first person to accomplish this achievement . ]== ==[You have obtained a Grand Achievement . ] You have reached 20,000 points in two Stats (STR, VIT) before anyone else . You will be awarded a bonus of 1,000 extra Stat points . This bonus is awarded to the first person to accomplish this achievement . ]== "Only a thousand?" I had expected 2,000 points since I was given twice the points when I reached 20,000 points on STR and VIT . But this achievement only gave me a thousand extra points for doing both . "Is it because they're just extra points?" These points could be invested into whatever Stat I wished, but the other Stat points were automatically invested into their respective Stats . "Oh, well . Open Stats Menu . " ==[Name: Lee Jiwon Level: 724 Death Count: 0 Title: Earth's First Deva HP: 15,590,700/15,590,700 MP: 452,800/452,800 Strength: 24,714 + 4,557 Agility: 14,901 Vitality: 27,001 Willpower: 4,468 Intelligence: 4228 Unassigned Stat Points: 2,377 Fatigue: 0 Special Effects: Luck Boost (X+1), immune to all Status effects, Dungeon Seeker 14 points Physical Attack: 108,518 Physical Defense: 50,597 Magical Attack: 14,154 Magical Defense: 29,034]== {Translator's Note: Again, he did not include Shaman Ko's SP…} And with that, my HP were now over 15,000,000, and my defensive Stats had increased considerably as well . Just looking at my Stats Menu put me at ease . "I still have 2,377 Stat points left, though . Hmm… I'll save them for now . " I just needed a total of 9000 extra Stat points to get my AGI up to 20,000 points . If I saved the points for that, I could get a total of 4,000 Stat points: 2,000 AGI points, and 2,000 extra points . I couldn't give up on that so easily . I closed my Stats Menu after one more look and sprang to my feet . I grabbed my spear and charged at a horde of Trolls, hunting as I waited for Pedro's Chest to open . I hadn't really expected much from it at first, but now that I knew of the impending arrival of the Judge's Continent, I was going to need all the help I could get . ------ Cape Town, South Africa… "Were you going to keep this a secret from me as well?" "Well…" "To think you would leave me, Dorofei Krutikov, the top shareholder of the Troll Market, out of the loop; I'm very disappointed in you . All those times you've called me your friend were all lies, weren't they?" {Translator's Note: made a mistake in CH 143, where Dorofei was first introduced . He's not the owner of the Troll Market; he's supposed to be the top shareholder} "No, they weren't . I'm taking a huge risk as a Store manager by telling you this in the first place . Do you not realize that?" "I think it's a fair price after all that I've done for you," Dorofei said to Bohol, the owner of the Troll Market and leader of the Golden Trolls, seeming genuinely hurt . "But this really is a secret we are required to keep… it's more precise to say that we're prohibited from speaking of it unless required to . " "That's why I'm just asking to at least nudge me in the right direction . " "All Store VIP members will learn of it within the next year, anyway . " "I'm supposed to be the infamous Information Hunter . Do you seriously expect me to wait like everyone else?" "Hmm…" Bohol contemplated what Dorofei just said . "Fine . I'll tell you . But it will cost you . " "I'll give you whatever you want . " "Give me back all 80% of the shares you hold in the Troll Market . " " . . . " Dorofei hesitated . He couldn't just readily part with all those shares . "Is this information that worth it?" "Obviously . Be thankful that's all I want . " "I understand . " Dorofei had noticed that things were getting busy within the Troll Market and knew that something big was going to happen, if it hadn't happened already . "The Earth's Otadolon stage is about to end soon . Around that time, the Judge's Continent will appear . Everything will be decided there; your fate, and Earth's . " " . . . " It was so bizarre that it almost sounded like a riddle, but Dorofei knew that Bohol was not a man to play with words . Dorofei also knew that he couldn't take this message lightly . If his fate was on the line, then it was simple; the end was nigh! "Thank you . " "Don't worry about it . I'm just sorry I can't tell you any more . " "Well, I guess it's about time I get going, then . I'll have to start preparing, won't I?" "I wish you the best of luck . " Dorofei gave Bohol a small bow and left . He still didn't know everything, but knowing that everything would be decided on the Judge's Continent was enough . It was worth giving up his Troll Market shares . --- Troll Dungeon… "Grah!" I had always preferred not to hunt at the Troll Dungeon . Just on the second floor of the dungeon, the Trolls always traveled in hordes of at least thirty . On the third floor, that number increased to at least fifty of a variety of Troll Warriors, Soldiers, Mages, and Warlocks . I had the ability to defeat them, but there were other high-grade dungeons that yielded more EXP with easier monsters . I never had a reason to stay here and fight like mad for less EXP since I usually stayed at least a month just to hunt . But now, I was doing exactly that . I practically threw myself at any Troll horde I could find and swung my spear relentlessly . This time around, my attacks easily sliced through the Trolls' hides and I no longer found myself tired out after fighting a few Troll hordes . Hell, their attacks even bounced off my skin, and I barely lost any HP after a fight . My entire body was a weapon as I mowed through the entire dungeon floor . I was receiving the occasional level up messages, but I didn't care about them . The message I looked out for pertained to something else . ==[The Chest Containing Pedro's Unfulfilled Desire for Revenge will now open . The Chest currently has +100 points . You will now receive an item of benefit . ]== Soon, the Chest disappeared and left a single item in its place, as if it wasn't a big deal . " . . . " I stared dumbly at the item, however, because the item was shining with a bright purple light . It was a Rank 10 item, and an accessory at that . I really just couldn't believe my luck at this point . "Item Check," I ordered in a shaky voice . ==[Avatar of Revenge (Rank 10) This bracelet was once worn by Avali, born from vengeance . Born from a strong desire for revenge, Avali lived only for vengeance . Eventually, Avali succeeded in its quest for vengeance, but now needed a new goal to live for . It needed a new target for revenge . It decided to make all monsters, its own species, animals, plants, and the very earth it lived on its targets for revenge . Blind with vengeance, it soon destroyed everything in its path, including the very God that created it . All that was left was this bracelet . Increase STR by 5,000 points . Decrease CRIT Rate by 10%, Increase CRIT Damage by 1,000% . ]== "Holy…" While its description was long, its effects were pretty darn simple . What caught my eye was that it decreased my CRIT rate by 10%, instead of increasing it . 10% was a lot to lose . My Harrier only increased CRIT rate by 4 . 1% and the Desert King's Resolution only increased it by 4 . 9% . The King-Emperor's Commitment increased it by 18% but that was only after Amplification . But seeing as how it had increased STR by 5,000 and CRIT damage by 1,000%, it seemed that it was for balance reasons . In exchange for the lower CRIT chance, I had increased CRIT damage . "Well, for someone like me, it's more than enough . " Even though it was a 10% loss, I still had enough CRIT chance and luck to make up for it . "But… that STR, though…" It hadn't been that long since I was struggling with myself over VIT and STR, and had ended up deciding to go with VIT instead . But with this new item, it was like the system was trying to make up for it!
