All Stat Slayer

Chapter 33: (1): Season 1: Preparation

Hyun-seok has stats exceeding 200. His strength is over 300, and even his lowest intelligence stat is 206. If his stats exceeded 100 in Easy Mode, then in Normal Mode, the stats would exceed 200. Hyun-seok speculates that there will be significant changes in his abilities at the benchmarks of 100, 200, and 300. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain the other attributes like H/P. In any case, all his stats are above 200, including his intellectual stat, as a matter of course.

In the past, when Hyun-seok first broke through the 100 intelligence stat, the skill Battlefield Opening instantly jumped from level 6 to level 7. For recovery and support slayers, the increase in the intelligence stat allows for bonus stat investment in skills. However, for combat slayers, only leveling up through repeated practice and the increase in intelligence stat can lead to leveling up.

Hyun-seoks current intelligence stat has surpassed 200, resulting in the level of Battlefield Opening reaching level 10.

Skill Window.

He opened the skill window.

1. Battlefield Opening (active) Lv. 10

• Opens the battlefield, unfolding a field that enhances a slayers latent abilities.
• Duration: 240 minutes and 28 seconds
• Activation requirement: None (intelligence stat of 100 or higher required)
• MP Cost: 3,000
• ?
• Iron Fist (passive) Lv. 6

Iron Fist are based on robust strength and stamina. Increases attack power by 15% and reduces stamina consumption.

Hyun-seoks expectations were correct. The last blank space displayed the MP cost, and to maintain level 10 of Battlefield Opening, an astonishing 3,000 MP was required. He could sustain it for approximately 240 minutes. That ability far surpassed even full-time support slayers. Moreover, there were no activation requirements, and the duration of 240 minutes made it undeniable. He could engage in slaying solo for four hours, excluding recovery breaks. When considering M/P recovery, the time would further extend.

But theres one more question mark.

With Battlefield Opening reaching level 10, another blank space appeared. It was not displayed in Normal Mode.

Battlefield Opening is level 10

As the level increases, combat slayers require the assistance of support slayers. Without the battlefield opened by a support slayer, it becomes difficult to continue battles. In an extreme example, Jong-wons self-deployed battlefield only lasts a mere three seconds.

The support slayers will be shocked.

Hyun-seok knew that no support slayer had raised Battlefield Opening to level 10. Although no one had reached level 10 yet, he assumed that investing approximately 50 bonus stats would allow reaching level 10. It was not a simple one-to-one correlation of one stat point per level; it required a considerable number of stats to increase the level. Considering the increase in the intelligence stat and leveling up combined, it was estimated that more than 50 stats would be needed.

Thus, its natural that no support slayer is devoted to Battlefield Opening.Amid the emergence of buffers and debuffers support types, pouring stats into Battlefield Opening, the fundamental skill, was a foolish act. At least, it seemed so within the bounds of common sense.

As the level of Battlefield Opening increases, its range expands, but there are no other advantages. Instead, the MP consumption for maintaining the field increases, and the absolute amount of MP required to activate it also rapidly rises. If, by any chance, Battlefield Opening is raised significantly later on, there is a cautious opinion that a buff-enabled battlefield would open. However, there was no one with enough stats to execute such a plan.

Therefore, it was not an exaggeration to say that there were no slayers investing in Battlefield Opening. Casting shorter durations multiple times is much more efficient than casting it once for a longer duration. It also consumes less M/P.

In other words, Hyun-seok possessed the highest skill level among all existing support slayers.

In that case now

After discussing with Sung-hyung, he decided to use the method he came up with.

With the inventory window activated and the item shop opened, the item description window was also available for reading. As a result, item trading among slayers became active. To purchase items from the item shop, experience points were required, but item trades between slayers were conducted with physical currency. While it was a bit challenging to claim that the current item market was of immense scale, it was taking place on a global level, amounting to trillions, and its growth rate was steep.

The range of traded items was extensive, and among them, the rarest belonged to the category of skill books. Skill books were items that allowed one to learn skills. Recently, the most popular item was the Advanced Heal, and the reason was attributed to stat efficiency.

To advance from Heal to Advanced Heal, assuming only Heal is increased, one would need to invest a staggering 30 stats. Of course, for recovery slayers, the increase in intellectual level and the speed of leveling up through repeated practice allow them to acquire Advanced Heal with around 10 stats invested on average.

However, if one were to obtain the Advanced Heal skill through a skill book, there would be no reason to invest stats in Heal. Although even weak heals have their own utility, as time goes by, Advanced Heal will provide greater effects compared to Heal. As slayers levels increase, their HP pool will continue to grow.

As a result, competition for Advanced Heal skill books was fierce. Money alone was not enough, and having connections alone was not sufficient either. One needed both money, connections, and even luck to acquire a Advanced Heal skill book. Nevertheless, as long as there were buyers willing to purchase the skill book for 1 billion won, the price would not decrease.

1 billion won was an enormous amount, but the global demand for Advanced Heal skill books remained unceasing. If Hyun-seok were alone, he would not have been able to obtain them. Despite that, Hyun-seok managed to obtain not just one but two Advanced Heal skill books. Sung-hyungs help, as well as the connections among the former members of IUET in the past, proved to be significant.

Hyun-seok carefully used the Advanced Heal skill book.

[Skill. Do you want to learn Advanced Heal? Y/N][Skill. Advanced Heal learned.][Intellectual stat exceeds 100.][Advanced Heal level increased.][Due to stats exceeding the Easy Mode standard, Advanced Heal has reached MAXIMUM level.]

Advanced Heal Does it mean its a heal of the Easy Mode specifications?

Thanks to his Intelligence stat being 100, the level of the Advanced Heal has reached its maximum.

My current Intelligence stat is 206.

When he forcibly entered Normal mode, his stat was 200. A stat of 200 goes beyond the typical specifications of Normal mode. And the Advanced Heal was originally a skill used in Easy Mode. Due to the stats surpassing Normal Mode, the level of the Advanced Heal reached its maximum, resulting in the emergence of a new skill derived from the Heal, which is the Advanced Heal.
