“I have more resources now than when Jason cleared the level.” Zhou Jing roughly finalized the development plan of the new apostle and looked at the resources.
From the time he had projected himself onto Jason as an Eternal Apostle, he had already passed five travel cycles. The benefits of each cycle were divided into two parts: return settlement and benefit placement. If he did not encounter any incidents, his daily benefits would not skyrocket or plummet.
On average, the daily benefits of these five cycles were around 800 Astral Points each, which was greater than before because after entering the Imperial Hunter base, he often wrestled with others and worked hard to cultivate breathing techniques. The benefits brought about by the two increased his average earnings. Moreover, Jason’s synchronization rate had reached 86%, and the percentage that was above 50% was also counted as an increase in his benefits.
Legendary Points also added value to daily gains. When Jason just cleared the level, his Legendary Points were only 5 points, but after months of grinding, it slowly increased to 10 points… Every 1 Legendary Point represented a 1% increase in daily gains.
However, while Jason’s reputation had clearly spread throughout the entire Terra Empire, his Legendary Points were only considered to be at the city level. Zhou Jing was not sure how this standard operated.
Not counting the daily benefits, three achievements were triggered in the middle. One was achieving the [Empire Hunter], which gave 500 Astral Points, and the other two were the [Traveler] and the [Wrestling Expert]. They were triggered by having explored above a certain area of the world map, as well as finding someone to wrestle a hundred times respectively, giving 1,200 Astral Points in total.
Because Jason’s aptitude had increased, the cost of learning Hunter’s Breathing Technique had decreased. Still, the effect of Accelerated Learning had increased instead.
Previously, he needed 700 Astral Points to master a breathing technique. Now, he only needed 500 Astral Points. In this short period of time, Jason had just achieved proficiency in another three.
“Apart from the resources Jason spent to learn the Hunter’s Breathing Technique and the cost of opening the Apostle slot, I still have 7,200 Astral Points left.”
Zhou Jing nodded to himself. This was more than he had expected. It was more than enough to use for his molding.
As for the Information State Particles, he now had 65 points remaining. In the cycle where he killed Lutt, the return settlement gave him 25 Information State Particles, which showed that he had indeed caused a certain impact.
Zhou Jing began to adjust the new apostle model according to his train of thought.
This time, he had four Selective Parameters Reset Counts to use. It was an increase brought about by his Astral Projector Rank.
He thought for a moment and assigned it to the talent slots and attributes. As for his aptitude, it was already quite good, so it was not worth a reset. After all, there was a risk of lowering it.
After spending the four selective reset opportunities, Zhou Jing was satisfied with his second talent and new attributes.
[You have received the talent Apothecary (The success rate and quality of making potions have increased)]
[Attributes: Physical Fitness 18, Resistance 14, Perception 10, Spirit 7, Energy 0]
He had already discovered that the talent reset was not completely random. It would either be related to his personality, aptitude, or attributes.
His attributes did not fluctuate much, only being slightly better than before.
The resetting opportunity was usually the earliest to be used. Only then did Zhou Jing open the interface that utilized Astral Points for template molding. He realized that the new Apostle’s point limit was also different.
[Model Template Addition Limit: 0/2100]
“I have an Astral Projector Rank of Lv3. Since Will and Jason are Common rarity and have a basic limit of 500 points, this means that the new apostle with Slightly Talented rarity has a basic limit of 700 points?”
Zhou Jing was delighted. After some calculations, he realized that there were enough resources on hand, so he simply dumped them in.
[2100 Astral Points have been converted. You have received 5 Free Points.]
[Current Free Points for Allocation: 31]
“This is the first time I have so many Free Points.”
Zhou Jing felt as if his family background was now that of a nouveau riche.
After thinking for a while, he allocated most of his Free Points to his aptitude.
[Free points allocated]
[Aptitude: Knowledge [Dark Green] → [Blue] ]
[Pharmacology [Green] → [Blue]]
[Craftsmanship [White] → [Green] ]
“It takes 2 points to upgrade a small tier for [White], 3 points to upgrade those in [Green], and 5 points to upgrade those in [Blue]… I’ve just spent it all.”
Zhou Jing looked at the 0 beside his Free Points counter and felt like a poor person again.
Knowledge and Pharmacology were the most important to his new apostle’s plans, so they naturally had to be raised. As for Eloquence and Natural Amicability, there was no need to deliberately improve them.
As for his Craftsmanship aptitude, it was a talent geared towards processing raw materials. It was considered a comprehensive aptitude. It could actually be narrowed down to more detailed arms, such as forging, tailoring, and other more targeted aptitudes… Zhou Jing had deliberately raised this aptitude from the [White] tier up because mutant beast materials needed better processing to become high-quality materials.
In addition, he also wanted to take the path of a craftsman and learn how to create all kinds of mutant beast equipment.
As for his combat aptitude, Zhou Jing did not try to obtain any because he did not intend to let the new apostle undergo the enhancement of mutant blood.
There was no need for the new apostle to fight. There was no need to strengthen the mutant blood that carried a risk to his life. If he accidentally died, it would be a pity for the new apostle’s talent in knowledge.
In any case, he could deal with most crises with his initial attributes.
If he could not handle the problem…
Hide, and let Jason loose!
“One is a scholar and one is a martial artist. How reliable.” Zhou Jing grinned.
Although the initial attributes of the new apostles were very high, he had thought it through clearly. In a situation of limited resources, it was best to take advantage of the situation. Since he did not have any combat aptitude, he would not force it.
This time, he had already confirmed that the Astral Projector Rank and strength of his main body affected the initial strength of the apostles… When he became stronger, the subsequent apostles would be even more powerful.
Therefore, he was not in a hurry to let this new apostle walk the Mutant Blood System again. In the future, when he reached a certain level, he would create a powerful template to become a Mutant Blood Warrior!
