Chapter 197: 144 Talent Level Up_2


    Trantor: 549690339


    And this deduction applies before Defense.


    That is to say, out of a 100 points Attack, Old Four first deducts 95 points, the remaining 5 points are further reduced by 30 percent before they finally hit Old


    Four’s Defense.


    Unless the damage is in the hundreds of millions or even billions, it won’t hurt Old Four, nor will it hurt Dean McKenzie.


    “And this is still when Old Four hasn’t activated his trait where his Defense can climb up to around ten million in thirty minutes.


    Even though I’m not very clear about the realbat power of fifth-turn professions, if the Defense is at this level, they can definitely withstand it easily!


    Even a six-turn profession might not be able to break it!


    This is a good investment!”


    Dean McKenzie is very satisfied.


    This skill enhancement allows Dean McKenzie to be unbeatable in front of both fifth and sixth-turn professionals.


    However, Dean McKenzie does not underestimate the fifth-turn professionals because of this.


    Even though he already has the lives of two fifth-turn powerhouses in his hands, he’s only picked up their leftovers.


    He still respects the fifth-turn professionals.


    Moreover, Dean knows very well that right now he can only survive in front of the fifth-turn powerhouses. Without improving his corresponding skills, he is no more than a hard rock in their eyes.


    Even though they can’t defeat him, there’s not much of a threat, they can just corner him.


    “So, all aspects still need to be elevated.


    But now that the Secret Realm is over, there’s no chance for improvement for


    now.


    Next time I enhance, 1 can’t do it like this. I can put aside the assignment of attribute points.


    A single attribute point for four Silver Coins is not expensive, but the quantity


    is terrifying.


    This time because it was necessary for my safety, next time I must focus on the


    traits.


    This will save money and the effect will be better, otherwise, the money I have will not be enough!”


    The cost of hundreds of thousands of Gold Coins scares Dean McKenzie.


    If he continues like this, he could do it a maximum of two more times with the money he has.


    This is really unbearable.


    Luckily, Dean McKenzie didn’t just spend money in this Secret Realm, he also gained something.


    Not long after Dean McKenziepleted Old Four’s skill enhancement, Old Eight came to present his treasure.


    He brought the storage ring which Dean McKenzie had received from ine Richardson and picked up all the glowing points from the ground. As soon as he saw Dean was free, he delivered the ring to Dean.


    Dean opened the storage space of the ring and was immediately dazzled. This is a lot of glowing points.


    By a conservative estimate, there are at least three to four thousand of them.


    Seeing so many glowing points, Dean is totally numb.


    Although opening glowing points is a fun task, it’s exhausting to do so many at once.


    Fortunately, Dean doesn’t necessarily have to be the one to open them. He poured out all the glowing points and called the dogs over. After nearly an hour of hard work, every glowing point was opened and organized.


    Thousands of glowing points resulted in 13,000 Gold Coins.


    It’s not even a tenth of what Dean McKenzie spent on skill enhancement, and the rest of the items are mostly third-turn or lower, which Dean doesn’t pay


    much attention to.


    Even though the two bosses dropped two pieces of silver equipment, either it wasn’tpatible with Dean McKenzie’s profession, or the level was wrong.


    After cleaning for an hour, Dean still didn’t find anything he liked. “Forget it, if there’s nothing, there’s nothing, anyway, I’ve already gained a lot, summoning Old Seven, upgrading Talent, enhancing Old Four’s skill, and I can even upgrade the Land of Bone.


    If I am too greedy, it would be a bit much.


    Let’s take a rest first.”


    After saying this, Dean exited from the Land of Bone.


    The fusion of the Fallen Demon Secret Realm and the Land of Bone was not particrly fast.


    Three days after Dean McKenzie finished harvesting the Fallen Demon Secret Realm, the fusion of the two secret realms was only about thirty percentplete.


    With this rate, it was estimated that it would take another seven days toplete the fusion.


    Fortunately, Dean McKenzie was in no rush. During these three days of fusion, he was quitefortable staying in the ckwater City Rescue Center.


    Every day, he would learn how to integrate into the world and find employment again.


    Apparently, the rescue center in ckwater City has a lot of experience in helping victims who have lost their memories. They were doing well in this regard.


    Dean McKenzie had a pleasant three days and even made a friend.


    “Brother Dean, what do you think of this job?


    Of all the jobs, this one has the highest monthly sry, with about 800 to 1200 a month. Plus, it’s a live-in job. If I work hard enough for a few years, I can save a Gold Coin. With that, I could then proceed to the promotion ceremony.


    If I’m lucky enough, I could even be a professional!”


    In the rescue center, a young man in his twenties held a manual, his eyes shining with excitement as he talked to Dean McKenzie.


    When Dean McKenzie heard this, he looked at the job that the young man was considering, lost in thought. It felt familiar, almost like he was transported back to a year ago.


    A year ago, Dean McKenzie was just like this young man, full of expectation, dreaming of bing a professional. He, too, had crawled into a sewer, staying there for half a year.


    Looking at the young man before him, Dean McKenzie felt as if he was looking at his past self.


    If it were a few months ago, Dean McKenzie would have given him the Gold Coin without hesitation, helping him achieve his dream earlier.


    That would be like fulfilling his own dream.


    But now, he simply smiled at him and gave him encouragement: “Work hard. I believe you can do it!”


    “Uh-huh!”


    The young man nodded heavily.


    All he sought from Dean McKenzie was this encouragement and affirmation.


    And then, he immersed himself in the anticipation of his future.


    Watching him silently from the side, Dean McKenzie didn’t know how long this young man would remain motivated, or when reality would shatter his


    dreams.


    But at least for now, this dreaming young man was fulfilled and happy.


    For the next few days, the young man started working hard for that job, studying seriously, hoping to start working as soon as possible.


    After observing his busy but hopeful demeanor, Dean McKenzie felt as if a weight has been lifted from his heart.


    “Even though they had a dark past, they don’t have to linger in the darkness. They can still have their own dreams, goals, and future. They can start their lives anew!


    This is great!”


    Dean McKenzie was satisfied. After witnessing the darkness of the Bloody Church, the brightness of this rescue center once again made him realize that the world was not as bad as he’d imagined.


    “Hmm, 1 should be leaving soon too.


    After the fusion of the Fallen Demon Secret Realm and the Land of Bone isplete, I should assess the strength of the merged secret realm. After replenishing the Skeleton Legion, I can start the ‘Goblin Uprising 4’ dungeon. If I reach level 80 after the dungeon, I’ll consider promoting my ss. If not, I’ll find ways to level up to 80 and then think about the Fourth-turn.”


    Dean McKenzie quietly set his ns for the next period of time.


    However, what Dean McKenzie did not anticipate was that an unexpected situation urred just after he finished nning.


    On the eighth day that Dean McKenzie stayed in the rescue center, all the victims in the center were summoned. Apparently, a majorpany was recruiting workers and wanted to hire from the rescue center.


    The monthly sry would be two Silver Coins.


    Moreover, if the workers stayed in thepany for a year, thepany would organize a promotion ceremony. All employees could participate for free.


    When they heard this, everyone was ecstatic.


    The young man was even more thrilled: “Brother Dean, it’s amazing! I never thought we’de across such a fantastic opportunity!


    Now we all have a chance to be professionals!”


    In his excitement, the young man didn’t notice the sudden grimness on Dean McKenzie’s face. Hearing that the workce was outside the city and the recruitment was not limited by gender or age, Dean McKenzie’s expression turned serious.


    “Yeah, I didn’t expect to encounter such an opportunity either!”
