Chapter 14: (4). Monster Researcher -3
The skills proficiency has gone up. [Basic Summoning] is now Lv.2.
You gained 3 skill points.
You learned the active skill [Wild Warriors Blessing].
You learned the passive skill [Basic Tactics].
Ians face brightened up at these pleasant messages.
Hard labor is the answer to everything!
Jinsung had been playing almost non-stop after the server opened. As a result, both Jinsung and Ly
reached Lv.18. Therefore, he also raised Basic Summonings level.
For now, I should keep the skill points received. I will later use them after I find out which skill is the
most effective.
The most basic way to raise skills level was to raise its proficiency through repeated use, however,
sometimes skill points were given as the character got stronger.
The skill gaining system used in Kailans was very peculiar. In fact, every class had to raise its basic
skill so that they could unblock skills of a higher level.
For example, in case of the Archer, you have to raise the level of Archery to learn higher skills. While
Ian, as a Summoner, had to raise the level of Summoning to get higher skills.
There were a few more ways to get skills. For example, you could create a skill through repeated
action or by researching, you could also gain a skill by completing a certain quest or by using a skill
book.
Therefore, in Kailan, you wouldnt see a high-level player helping to quickly raise the levels of a low-
level player.
While a user can help someone gain EP, there are great disadvantages in doing so. You wont be able
to raise the proficiency of your skills and, in the end, you would end up with a useless character that
had a high level but weak battle power.
Therefore, the battle power of each player depended a lot on how they raised their character.
Ian then opened the information window of the new skills he got.
[Wild Warriors Blessing]
Category: active skill
Skill Level: Lv.0
Proficiency: 0%
Necessary MP (Magic Point): 150
All party members including yourself will receive the Wild Warriors Blessing. The Attack Force goes
up by 30% for 20 minutes.
When the skill is used on a pet, the efficiency will be increased to 100%
Oh, its an enhancing skill. Thats great.
It was not as good as the enhancing skills used by the Priests, however, its option of having higher
efficiency on the pets was more than satisfying.
Basic Tactics whats this?
Ian then moved on to the next skill right away.
[Basic Tactics]
Category: passive skill
Skill Level: Lv.0
Proficiency: 0%
The Summoners Leadership and Taming Technique are improved by 10%. The Summoners pets will
have a better understanding of their masters orders during battle.
Ians face brightened up even more.
Oh, 10% more in Leadership now I might even be able to get a bear!
In fact, Ian had tried to capture an Asiatic Black Bear when he reached Lv.15.
He remembered that Friendship and the Taming Technique stats rose when he captured wolves.
Therefore, he was going to repeat the same thing by capturing and releasing bears to raise those
stats. By doing so, he might have gained some new capturing skills.
However, as soon as he tried to do so, a message came up saying that his Leadership was not high
enough to capture a bear.
Lets try it again.
Ian then looked around to find an Asiatic Black Bear.
Will I be able to get a bear as good as Ly? He muttered as he grasped the bow.
Ly was growing well. Ian was much more satisfied with it than he had imagined, therefore he wanted
more monsters.
Ian was then able to capture an Asiatic Black Bear right in front of him.
It works!
Thanks to Basic Tactics, his Leadership was now enough to capture bears.
Lets see, I should compare it with Lys stats.
Soon, he got excited.
Is Ly really a Wolf? Its stats are beyond normal!
At Lv.18, Lys stats were almost as good as a Lv. 34 bears.
When it came to attack force, it was as good as the bears. Moreover, its speed was even higher.
Its Health and Defense Force were much smaller, however, considering the big level difference, they
were still considered great.
Before he dismissed the information windows, Ian looked again at the Evolution possible words
written on Lys information window.
But how can I make him evolve? I want to know what the required condition is
Ly was already doing a great job, however, he couldnt help but feel excited when thinking about his
evolution.
I have to go to the village when I reach Lv.20 anyway, so I should visit the Summoner Guild again to
find out.
In fact, Ian would have to join the Lotus Guild again at Lv.20 and sell the items he had gained,
therefore, he had to go to the village.
Once, Ian felt rested enough, he activated his enhancing skills.
Blessing of the Wind, Wild Warriors Blessing!
While receiving the blessings, Ly growled and once the Wolf was ready, Ian resumed his hunting.
Ly, distract that bear!
When Ian first arrived at the Mountains, he only dared to attack bears that were alone. However, now
as his level was higher, he boldly attacked packs of two or three bears.
Asiatic Black Bears had great Health and Attack Force, however, their weakness was that they were
slow. While Ly distracted one of them using its fast speed, Ian killed the other.
Kaaaaaa-!
Ly roared loudly and bit the bears shoulder, who swung its front paw at Ly right away, however, Ly
was already standing far from his prey.
Ian was very satisfied with their tactics.
Okay, this is it!
At first, Ly didnt know how to fight like this. Ian patiently taught him and now it knew how to put
pressure on the enemy.
Only by using the active skill called Basic Training was this possible.
Ian made use of the effect of the skill that allowed the pet to better understand the Summoners
orders and learn quicker for 10 minutes.
Ian then easily hunted two bears and continued to hunt without wasting time.
I can now feel that the leveling up just by hunting is starting to slow down. Ill have to do quests in
order to level-up
There were many quests about Asiatic Black Bears. However, Ian wasnt currently doing any quests
because, in order to get one, he would have to visit the village and that would take time.
He was thinking that it would still be more efficient to hunt without a quest.
Additionally, after Lv. 20, he would no longer be a beginner, therefore, there would be a sizable
amount of decent quests waiting for him.
Ian smiled as he saw Ly bravely attacking a bear.
Yes. Grow up, my handsome pet.
Ian then picked up an arrow and aimed at the bear.
His goal was to reach Lv. 19 before logging out.
Thanks to the First Aid skill, he didnt have to go back to the village as long as his bag was not full.
Ian hunted, hunted and hunted even more. Four hours later, he could finally see the message he
desired.
Your pet, Ly has leveled-up. Ly has reached Lv. 19.
Great!
When Ian captured Ly, it was one level higher, therefore, it reached Lv. 19 a slightly earlier.
And 30 minutes later
You have leveled-up. You have reached Lv. 19.
After reaching his goal, Ian logged out without hesitation. It was time to rest.
In order to be a good gamer, you need a good plan.
This was one of the most fundamental gaming rules that Ian followed.
