Chapter 42: Aether Attunement Chapter 42: Aether Attunement “ Oh wow. You used to live here? I feel kind of bad for you, and I once lived in a kobold’s loincloth.” “ It used to look better, okay. The kobolds really did a number on it.” Alex wasn’t lying either. The camp that his team had put together was pretty decent given the supplies they had. A few tents, organized packs and supplies. Things looked on the up and up back then. Now, it was just depressing. Scraps of cloth and wrappers were strewn everywhere. Broken pieces of wood, plastic and glass littered the area around the fire pit. Anything worth any sort of value or of any kind of use was gone, scavenged by the greedy fucking lizard people which Alex was slowly learning to hate more and more. “ Whatever you say buddy. It may be a trash pile, but its your trash pile. Stay positive.” Alex kicked about a few pieces of trash, already having lost the hope that he could manage to find something to help him on the journey to Vrung’s Quarry. It was a day’s travel when Garret and he had last made the trek, and he was already starting to get hungry. He wouldn’t starve to death in that amount of time, but it would make the travel that much worse for him. “Looks like I will just have to jog the whole way there and try to make it before nightfall? Hey Obby,” Alex mentally nudged the sentient rock with his mind, something he had learned to do over the last hour as he traveled. “Yes flesh human?” “ Which stat would be best to invest in to let me get to the town faster? Agility so I can run faster? Or vitality so that I can have a higher endurance?” “ The best stat to invest in would be wisdom. Obviously. That way I can be way better suited to assist you. Barring that, well, you organic beings do get tired very fast. So vitality. But even that would be a stupid way to spend your experience in the long run. ” “What do you mean? What should I put my experience points then?” Alex sat down on an overturned log next to what was left of the fire-pit. He mentally pulled up his status screen, which was something he actually hadn’t done since before killing Doudra back in the cavern. Name; Alexander Pierce Experience; 1780 Core; N/A (Destroyed) Attributes; Strength: 7 (0.1%) Agility: 7 (4.7%) Vitality: 7 (0.0%) Wisdom: 4 (0.1%) Intelligence: 5 (21.0%) Willpower: 7 (0.0%) Skills: Glyphcraft – Beginner – 29.0% Abilities: Refined Body Tier I, Refined Willpower Tier I, Refined Intelligence Tier I, Aether Attuned Body I, Aether Sight Spells/Techniques: Flare – Beginner A bit of quick math from Alex let him know that the experience throttling effect when killing weaker monsters was still up and running. He gained only roughly five-hundred experience points from killing all those badgers earlier. Including the badger warriors. The first time he killed a badger warrior, he had gained over two-hundred from that one kill alone. Increasing his experience points even higher was going to be a chore at this point. “ Oh look at that, plenty of points to increase your wisdom to the next threshold. ” Obby was right about that much. Wisdom was the last of Alex’s stats not to reach the refinement threshold as well. Something Alex was pretty certain he would get awarded for by The System. But he had other things to worry about. “I will save the points to push up my wisdom, I promise. But I will do that later. For now, help me out here. Which stat can I ignore for my long term build, and what should I focus on?” Alex was hoping he could have ignored wisdom now, since he no longer had a mage core to work on, thus the stat would have been useless. Since it was the stat that increased Obby’s efficiency though, that idea was out the window. “ You can ignore none of them. ” That was not what Alex was wanting to hear. “None?” “ Yes, none. Your physical stats are needed to keep your body not be squishy and frail, all three will be important to that. We already talked about why wisdom is your most important stat of all, s
