If you ask an adventurer what change he is most looking forward to in his ability values, he will probably have only one answer.
That's an upgrade.
It is not about acquiring magic that can be called a supernatural miracle, nor is it about acquiring skills with strange effects, nor is it about greatly improving one's basic abilities, it is about physical and mental evolution and level improvement.
Especially for novice adventurers, upgrading is undoubtedly the thing they look forward to the most.
Because, starting from this step, you can be considered as embarking on the road to transcendence.
God's favor exists as a growth accelerator and an accelerator for becoming stronger.
In other words, it does not allow people who originally had no way to become stronger to break through their own limits and become stronger, but allows people who could continue to become stronger to accelerate their growth.
Because of this, whether a person can grow actually depends on whether he or she has the potential to grow.
If there is potential for growth, then God's favor can accelerate the process, promote growth through accumulated experience points, and become the nutrients for growth.
If there is no potential for growth, then unfortunately, even if you receive God's grace, you will not be able to grow.
This is also the fundamental reason why there are so few people who can train their basic abilities to the S stage, and very few people who can even train to the A and B stages.
Their potential has been exhausted and they can no longer grow. In this case, no matter how much experience they accumulate, they cannot improve even one point of proficiency.
In view of this, in fact, although 1 can be divided into strong and weak, people at this level still belong to the category of "mortal".
They can grow to the limits of the human body and the human race by accumulating experience points, but they still cannot truly transcend the world and possess inhuman powers.
Especially humans without any racial advantages. Even if they are trained to the limit of their human body, they can only break a rock at best. How can they break down a mountain?
It can't be done.
The human body has its limits after all, and no matter how much it grows, it will never become inhuman.
But once you experience the upgrade, it's different.
The so-called "physical and mental evolution" is as literally expressed as it is truly otherworldly and officially enters the realm of inhumanity.
Whether human beings or demi-humans, even if their potential is exhausted and they have been trained to the limit of their human bodies and cannot make any further progress, once they are successfully upgraded, they will undergo a transformation that can be called "physical and mental evolution".
This transformation is not only reflected in the strength becoming stronger, but also in the "vessel" becoming larger and wider.
After upgrading, oneself will be sublimated to another level. At this time, new potentials and new possibilities will emerge, so that oneself that has reached a bottleneck and can no longer make any progress has the opportunity to grow again and become stronger again.
This is an upgrade.
Loki said that upgrading is the level closer to them (gods).
The higher the level, the more sublimations, and the sufficient physical and mental evolution, the closer you will be to your parents (gods).
Therefore, the phenomenon of upgrading can also be regarded as the phenomenon of becoming a god step by step.
In this case, who wouldn't want to upgrade?
But the level cannot be easily improved.
"Generally speaking, if you want to upgrade, you need to meet two conditions."
Loki shook the wine bottle in his hand and spoke intentionally or unintentionally.
"One is to upgrade one of the basic abilities to the sixth stage, which is stage D."
"One is to obtain more advanced experience points than usual and achieve great achievements."
The first condition is to provide enough cornerstones for the upgrade.
If the foundation is not accumulated enough, it will be like a high-rise building with an unstable foundation. Even if you build on it, it will only result in collapse.
In the same way, if you want to promote physical and mental evolution and individual sublimation, you cannot do it without a certain foundation (foundation).
The second condition is to provide sufficient nutrients for upgrading and evolution.
Just like general experience points can be used as nutrients to promote the growth of basic abilities, or even awaken magic and skills, if you want to upgrade, you also need enough experience points.
However, the experience value required at this time cannot be satisfied by ordinary experience value, but as Loki said, it must be high-level experience value.
This kind of high-level experience value is what Loki calls great achievements.
In other words, defeat an opponent stronger than yourself.
In other words, take a near-death risk.
In other words, launch a serious challenge.
Once these behaviors are achieved, the recipient of the favor will gain more advanced experience points than usual and achieve so-called great achievements.
And when the accumulation of great deeds is sufficient, the evolution of the body and mind will be triggered, and people can advance to a higher realm and step into a higher realm.
This is an upgrade.
"Defeat an opponent stronger than yourself?"
The corners of Li Ge's mouth curled up unconsciously.
Seeing Li Ge like this, Rocky woke up from his wine.
"Good guy, not only did this not scare you, but it also made you excited, right?" Loki complained: "Generally speaking, when you hear that you need to defeat an opponent who is stronger than yourself, everyone will give up, right?"
"It's a good thing for you, don't call it quits, you can't wait to blow the horn of war."
Isn't it?
Generally speaking, there is definitely no chance of winning against an opponent who is stronger than oneself, right?
There is no chance of winning, which means there is a high possibility of death.
Who wouldn’t cringe when they hear that upgrading requires such conditions?
Only Li Ge actually smiled.
"It's not bad." Li Ge quickly put away his uncontrollable lips and said: "Even if the opponent is stronger than himself, there are not many examples of the weak defeating the strong. There are even many, otherwise there would be no such thing in this world.
There are so many high-level adventurers.”
Indeed, although the requirements for upgrading are very demanding, there are still many people who achieve their goals in the end.
Why?
Because you are weaker than your opponent, you can still rely on skills to make up for it, rely on tactics to reverse it, and there are even many conspiracies and tricks that can be used.
To be more direct, isn't magic also a miraculous trump card?
If you really encounter an opponent stronger than yourself, then if you desperately use the wide-area annihilation magic chanted in a long poem and display the power that can burn the sky and boil the sea, isn't it possible to burn to death in one go those who are stronger than yourself?
A strong opponent?
These are all possibilities of the weak defeating the strong.
Of course, there is an easier way.
"I suggest you find someone to form a team." Loki advised: "Facing stronger enemies, challenging them as a team, and gathering multiple forces to attack the opponent, that is how you can gain advanced experience points and achieve success.
The shortcut to great achievements."
In a nutshell, if you can't beat them one on one, just fight in groups.
If you challenge more powerful opponents in this way, you can also achieve great achievements.
However, if you do this, the experience points will be distributed to everyone in the same team, which may result in insufficient accumulation of advanced experience points to upgrade at once.
But if it doesn’t work once, wouldn’t it be okay to do it a few times?
This is why the conditions for achieving great achievements are so stringent, and why there are still many people in this world who can successfully upgrade.
Taking challenges as a team can be both safe and stable.
"Thankfully, there are many members in this family, and you also have many high-level seniors. They can take you forward and let you upgrade safely." Loki looked at Lige and said, "If there is a need,
, you can mention it directly to us."
The meaning of this was already very clear, all he had to do was tell Rige directly that if he needed it, Loki would help him arrange for his teammates to take charge of flying.
This is also one of the benefits of joining a large family. Someone will guide you, take care of you, guide you, and protect you. You don’t need to worry about not being able to make progress. You only need to worry about your potential.
If you were in a weak family clan, finding a companion to form a team with would be a big problem.
In this sense, Li Ge's choice to join the Loki Familia was undoubtedly a very wise choice.
Otherwise, why would there be so many people looking forward to joining the Great Familia?
It’s not because the connections, resources, etc. are so generous.
only
"Form a team"
Li Ge frowned subconsciously, leaving Loki speechless.
"Isn't it a good idea to have someone take you flying? There's something wrong with you, kid!" Loki gasped as he resisted the urge to smash Li Ge's head with a wine bottle to see what was inside.
He said: "Forget it, it's definitely useless to expect you to grow up step by step. Anyway, your ability value has not reached the peak yet. Before reaching the peak, I will arrange for you to adapt to team combat first, and wait until you need to upgrade.
Let’s make detailed plans later!”
Looking at Li Ge's growth rate, there is no doubt that his potential at this stage has not yet been fully realized.
Judging from this trend, it is definitely no problem for Rige to upgrade his basic abilities to the A stage, and even the highest S stage is a possibility.
As for upgrading to the S stage, and upgrading to the minimum D stage, will the strength after upgrading be the same?
They are all upgrades, and the strength increased after the upgrade is the same, so the person with higher ability value in the previous level must be stronger.
"We are really looking forward to whether you can achieve the miracle of having a full ability value of S."
Loki laughed.
"Is all abilities worth S?"
Li Ge murmured in a low voice.
That is indeed a miracle.
At least, as far as Li Ge knows, even in the original work, only one person has come close to this achievement.
The legendary figure known as Orario's ultimate weapon, with a level as high as 7, has a total of four abilities that have reached the S stage, and he is only one item away from achieving the full ability level of S.
Apart from that person, there is no other person in the original novel who has such terrifying potential abilities.
Of course, the original protagonist is definitely excluded.
Not to mention having a full power value of S, that person is even above this. He has reached a state that even the gods have never heard of or seen.
Li Ge looked at the parchment in his hand, his eyes flickering.
Compared with that person, can I reach the possibility that makes the gods revel?
