Chapter 7: 7 Adding Points to Break Through

Luoning was lying on his bed at this moment, recalling the time he spent playing games on Earth.

He remembered that when playing a certain card game, he would often log in punctually at 12:00 every night, just to claim the refreshed monthly card, daily benefits, and so on.

He did not expect that, while in another world, he would again be propping up his eyelids, which were constantly fighting, waiting for the arrival of 12:00 midnight.

The room was quiet, and the flickering light from a white candle illuminated the pitch-black environment.

"12 o'clock is here!"

Luoning looked at the changes on the sign-in panel and revealed a look of joy.

【Attribute Point +1】

As soon as the time arrived, the sign-in was automatic, and Luoning's attribute points increased by 1.

At the same time, the reward for the 2nd day on the Seven-Day Login also changed to a claimable state.

The name of this reward was "Classic Gift Pack," not that kind of character card, so Luoning chose to claim it without hesitation.

Suddenly, within Luoning's line of sight, a red package with gold edges appeared, then opened, erupting with a burst of intense light.

【Attribute Point +30】

【Energy Essence +60】

Luoning looked at his Attribute Panel:

【Rank】: Mortal (1/10) +;

【Attribute Point】: 31

【Energy Essence】: 60

"Can I level up?"

Luoning looked at the rank column, feeling somewhat excited and anxious; what changes would occur after adding 9 attribute points?

"Add points!"

With a thought, 9 attribute points were invested all at once.

In an instant, Luoning only felt that both his body and spirit had received a tremendous boost.

Even though it was twelve o'clock at night, he was still full of vigor and unable to sleep.

Thump-thump, thump-thump...

He could clearly hear the beating of his heart; it was so healthy and powerful!

The current him had completely cast off the frail physique of his predecessor and ushered in a new life.

At the same time, the Attribute Panel also underwent changes:

【Rank】: 1-Primary Knight (0/100) +; 1-Primary Mage (0/150) +

【Attribute Point】: 22

"I have actually become a dual transcendent professional at the same time!"

For humans, there are two types of transcendent power: one is Battle Qi, and the other is Magic Power, corresponding to the Knight and the Magician.

After Luoning broke through by adding points, he mastered both of these transcendent powers simultaneously.

He closed his eyes and carefully sensed the location of his heart; he could vaguely feel a seed pulsing and sprouting.

"This is the legendary Battle Qi Seed."

As the Knight's physical fitness increases, the Battle Qi Seed will become more and more powerful, and eventually, the Battle Qi inside will sprout and emerge; this is the mark of becoming an Intermediate Knight.

As for the Magician, it is much simpler.

Luoning could feel that there was a marvelous space in his brain region; a Magician absorbs external elements into this space through meditation to refine them into mana.

The speed of refinement depends on the Magician's affinity for various types of elements.

Luoning has super-grade affinity for both wind and fire, so the refinement speed is naturally very fast.

"Great, great!"

Having just arrived in another world, Luoning had mastered magical transcendent power, and his mood was incredibly excited.

"The reward for this Seven-Day Login isn't bad either."

He chuckled, completely forgetting his mood when he was cursing the dog-planner.

He looked at the remaining 22 attribute points and began to think.

At the current stage, physical fitness is very important to him, so it is better to add points to the Knight first.

Thus, he added all the remaining attribute points to his Knight rank.

With the further strengthening of his body, Luoning felt that his strength was unprecedentedly strong; he threw a casual punch, and he feared it was more than twenty years of kung fu.

He could also feel that the Battle Qi Seed at his heart had grown a bit larger.

"Okay, not bad!"

Now he also understood the five interfaces of his golden finger: Monthly Sign-in, Seven-Day Login, First Recharge Gift, Achievement Task, and Attribute Panel.

Monthly Sign-in and Achievement Task are long-lasting;

Seven-Day Login and First Recharge Gift are the same as the ideas when the system was designed, stimulating players in the short term to bring about retention and payment;

The Attribute Panel is the consumption outlet and the functional part.

"The reward for Monthly Sign-in can be amplified by increasing the noble rank, so becoming a Viscount will be my next stage goal, and becoming a Viscount can also complete achievements and obtain attribute point rewards."

Having mastered transcendent power, Luoning naturally wanted to go a step further.

It is said that a level 9 Blazing Sun Knight is invincible against ten thousand men and can even live to be 200 years old; they are incredibly fierce, and Luoning naturally yearns for that.

Thinking of this, he began to regret it again.

"If I had known that the sign-in reward was linked to the noble rank, I should have begged my grandfather to give me a Viscount title to hold when I was at Wushan Fortress."

This was actually just talk.

Generally speaking, only heirs who have reached adulthood will be granted a noble title.

Take Buleidun, who obtained the right of inheritance, as an example; after he came of age and before Weijinsi died, he could only obtain the title of Viscount from his father.

It was impossible for Luoning, who had lost the right of inheritance, to beg a Viscount title from Weijinsi; being able to become a Baron was already the limit.

"In this era, titles are built upon military exploits."

It can be said that people with great strength do not necessarily have titles, but people with titles must have strength (excluding those who inherited titles from the previous generation).

What is missing in between is military exploits.

Following great nobles to campaign in all directions and performing meritorious deeds—when those deeds accumulate to the point of being recognized by a great noble, it is possible to obtain a title.

And if one wants to perform military exploits, individual strength is key, but the strength of a team is also indispensable.

Luoning pondered secretly; it seemed he must manage his territory well and cultivate a force of his own.

As long as there is an army capable of fighting and winning, achieving military exploits will be just around the corner.

"Everything, let's wait until I arrive at Shanlin Town to make specific plans."

Filled with excitement and plans for the future, Luoning gradually drifted into dreamland.

In his dream, he saw himself riding on a warhorse, a flame-like longsword waving gently, with thousands of troops and horses under his command neighing and charging—the scene was truly magnificent!

But he never expected that the nine guards Weijinsi had arranged for him had already begun to harbor ulterior motives toward him.

The night passed quietly.

When Luoning woke up, the sky was already slightly bright; he pushed the door, and the noise made Chahaer, who was sitting on a stool outside the door, jump in a start and stand up instantly.

"Good morning, Master. I have come to serve you with your washing."

Chahaer enthusiastically prepared the washing supplies for Luoning.

"Why are you here? Didn't I have Huoerhuate arrange accommodation for you all?"

Chahaer bowed slightly and replied respectfully: "Master, you have too few servants by your side. I was afraid that if you had any matters at night, you wouldn't be able to find anyone, so I kept watch here."

Luoning felt some admiration; this was truly a dedicated and good employee~

"You've worked hard!"

"This is my duty, Master!" Chahaer responded respectfully.

During the time of washing and eating breakfast, Luoning also gained a certain understanding of Chahaer.

This manservant's father was a Professional Knight; although he died in battle many years ago, relying on his status as a Professional Knight, Chahaer had the opportunity to enter the Supernatural Academy to study.

After his father died, Chahaer, having lost his support, relied on his ability to read some characters and his training in noble etiquette to successfully enter the castle and become a Servant of Wushan Castle.

Luoning was quite satisfied with this manservant; once they arrived at Shanlin Town, Chahaer might be able to become his good assistant.

"I highly approve of your ability!"

Luoning ate a piece of bread with his milk.

The taste of the fresh milk was barely acceptable, but he was not used to eating bread; he rarely ate bread when he was on Earth.

"From now on, just follow me and work hard. In the future, when Shanlin Town develops, I guarantee you will absolutely not be worse than Huoerhuate!"

He stood up, patted Chahaer on the shoulder, and dangled a carrot before him.

Encouraged and recognized, Chahaer's eyes shone brightly; he suddenly felt that Baron Luoning was not the good-for-nothing the outside world claimed, and perhaps his active application to go to Shanlin Town this time was a good choice.

"It is my honor to serve you, Lord Baron!"
