14 assessing gains

during the process of raising the rock wolf alpha I was able to change part of its structure. I was able to make her somewhat smarter and give her one skill of my choosing.

I decided to give her the transformation skill so she can take human form. the skill will make it much easier later when I have to go to human settlements.

although she may look more like a wolf-kin than a human. since my skill resets her to level one it'll take some time before she can unlock the skill.

thankfully even though she was reset to level one thanks to the necromancy skill she managed to keep most of her base stats.

however she did lose some of her body stat. but it shouldn't matter in the long run because now that she's my servant I can allocate her stat points.

I'm definitely going to make her put more into mind and magic I can't have her stay so dumb. I also changed part of her evolution path.

it seems that monsters are able to evolve I managed to set hers to what I'd like. I set hers to her she'll still be going the Earth element path however she won't gain any secondary magic affinity.

I plan on making her my tank, with her strong body and Earth magic she should make her great at tanking aggro.

I managed to know that her next evolution will be into an earthwolf. show gain much more Earth affinity and be even tankier. she'll also be able to control the Earth with incredible precision.

so along with being able to tank she should also be able to control the battlefield with Earth magic. I had to do the last step and name her before it was complete.

I decided to name her Elizabeth, once I told her her name there was a final flash of light and the magic was done. I now had a completely loyal servant who had never betray me. it's finally time to check her final stats.

name: Elizabeth

species: Rock wolf

level: 1

attributes

MP: (16/16)

body: 18

mind: 4

magic: 4

skills

(vicious bite) (charge) (Earth magic)

(transformation locked till level 10)

during the process to create a servant it seems some of the energy comes from the servant itself. which is why I chose to use the body stat for the energy instead of mind or magic.

and while I did indeed make her smarter it'll take time and a few level ups to show. she should also gain lots of new skills once her intelligence increases.

but for now instead of leveling her up I threw her some rabbit corpses and had her go feed the Cubs. it was finally time for me to sit down and digest my gains.

during my killing spree and the fight with the alpha pack I managed to level up a few times. I need to hit level 11 now that all the fighting was over I could finally allocate my stat points.

level: 8 -> 11

attributes

MP: (225/225) -> (400/400)

bod: 20 -> 25

mind: 15 -> 20

magic: 15 -> 20

I decided to put five stat points in each I'm going to keep strengthening my body and I have a theory that if your body is too weak and your mind and magic too strong it'll burn it out.

I did some math and it seems that the level requirement is going to keep getting higher and higher.

my leveling is definitely going to slow down drastically. I may not even be able to get one level a week from this point forward.

I should be able to get the next level after one hunt but then the next level up a require over 10,000 EXP. I should be able to level up one more time in the next few days once I go to hunt again.

but it'll take a few days to digest everything I've gained from this hunt and to fortify the new area. I still need to use the last remaining chances on my unique skills.

I plan on using my last creation chance to make a body for a new servant. with the amount of effort on planning on putting in it should turn out amazing much better than Elizabeth.

but only time will tell which approach is better. Elizabeth was still feeding the Cubs, I decided to throw her one of the lesser beast blood fruit.

it seems she really enjoyed it she ate it in a single bite. it should hasten her evolution. The killing spree and hunt as well as creating my new servant took the entire day.

I used Earth magic and added some basic fornications around the den. then I went to the back of the den and fell asleep.

I woke up the next morning. today is going to be a hectic day, I need to collect a decent amount of materials.

I plan on turning the den into a temporary base which will require an intense amount of work. but first I checked the cave to see what minerals were in the walls.

it seems that there's an incredibly diverse amount of minerals in this den. it's also incredibly large compared to the last one. it was most likely carved out by the alphas Earth magic.

I decided to spend the rest of the day mining after throwing Elizabeth some breakfast. I decided to try something new today and imbue by pickaxe with Earth magic before striking.

I decided to start with some iron ore, the effect was amazing I can mine at least three times faster this way. I spent the rest of the day mining vast amounts of ores.

thanks to my increased mining speed using magic I managed to get more than enough before half the day went by but now I need to refine it.

the refining was slow and tedious I meant to get large amounts of iron, coal, copper, and zinc. I even managed to acquire and refine a new metal, I managed to find tin.

there was still a few hours of the day, I decided to start making alloys. I made steel and brass, then I decided to try making bronze.

I managed to make a decent amount of it after about an hour of trying to get the consistency right. bronze is an excellent conductor of heat and electricity.

so I decided to try to interview it with fire and lightning mana. it should make very interesting arrowheads, or I could try to turn it into a magic staff base.

not exactly sure yet so only imbue a small amount of it as a test run. I decided instead of imbuing all of it with both electricity and fire I would do two separate lumps.

I managed to get shocking bronze and burning bronze. it seems that I am view metal with mana and it manages to retain it it can attract the respective manna from the environment.

it seems burning bronze would make an excellent insulator during winter. let the test it's other uses but I'm sure it'll be fine. now I gathered a decent amount of materials those finally time to move on to the next steps.
