Reading through the description of the quest and the rewards that came along withpleting it, Valyr was left at a slight loss for words.
After all, from what he knew, obtaining a chance to get a second subss was already difficult toe by.
In fact, back when he was still a yer in his past life, he could remember that the number of people with second subsses only numbered around a couple million or so.
Though that may seem like a lot, it was ultimately a drop in the bucket whenpared to the entire world poption that yed Greater Beyond.
Then again, the current opportunity offered to him was a far rarer urrence than getting the chance to obtain a second subss.
As far as he knew, most of those that obtained their second subss had already transcended their mortalities at that time, bing Myths that entires feared.
On the other hand, the opportunity had appeared in front of him before he had even reached the peak of mortality, something only a few handful of people apart from him had obtained in the past.
Getting over the fact that he could potentially obtain a second subss, Valyr soon affixed his gaze towards the subss he would get frompleting the quest.
"Prototype Gunner…" muttered the young man,manding the system to bring up a description of the subss.
Ding!
Reading through the text he had been given, Valyr found out that the Prototype Gunner subss was a more bare-bones version of the various gunner sses he hade across in the past.
Of course, because it was so bare-bones, there was a type of flexibility attached to the subss, something Valyr felt like he could make use of to turn the subss into something thatplemented his otherbat styles.
Nevertheless, aside from its stat distribution being the usual distribution for simpler gunner sses, the subss was pretty solid in Valyr''s eyes with all things considered.
Especially with how the subss seemed tailor-made to synergize with his [The First Gunslinger (Veldanyr)] title.
"Then again, I''ll only be able to get my hands on this subss once I reach Rank 5," said Valyr to himself as he closed the screen he had brought up, bitterly smiling at the quest''s objectives.
Though it may not seem like it, a great portion of the objectives needed toplete the quest were quite simple in nature.
If anything, there were only two objectives among them that Valyr felt like he would take a quite bit of time toplete, which was the objective where he needed to create a skill and the objective where he needed toprehend his Intent.
Even upgrading his arquebus'' rarity to have a plus modifier was quite simple with the technological advancements he now had ess to, let alone forging an entirely new type of firearm to use.
"Well, from another perspective, my strength would undoubtedly go through a massive boost once I reach Rank 5."
In the end, Valyr decided not to look at the quest from a pessimistic standpoint, letting out a chuckle as he thought about how he''d be able to use the Shard of Defiance at the same rank.
''I wonder if having those two at Rank 5 would be enough for me to surmount the gap that exists between mortals and Myths?''
Just as Valyr began to think about the two items with one of his more important quests in mind, the trial''s monotonous voice began to resound through the grounds once more, prompting him to push his thoughts to the side.
''Though you have entered the Gates of Enlightenment with your superbbat strength, that does not mean that the Gates of Awakening are oblivious to the token that you''ve used to do.''
''Forging is considered one of the four main professions within the Gates of Awakening, a great backbone necessary for a settlement to rise from a vige to an evesting empire.''
''With you having proven in the previous trial that your strength exceeds the confines that have previously shackled you, you must now showcase to the Gates of Awakening that you have not obtained the token by mistake.''
''Showcase to the Gates of Awakening that you have mastery over the profession you have chosen through your token, or else your journey might possibly be cut off short even with your qualifications.''
''With all of that said, your second trial is…''
''The Trial of Four Rarities.''
