The Guardian System: The strongest Summoner's quest to save his family-Chapter 383: The Grind of the Road

His early enchantments fizzled or exploded, ruining the items. But each failure gave him a better understanding of what he had to do. Each ruin taught him how the energy wanted to flow, and that increased his levels in the professions.

However, it still wasn't enough to craft equipment he could actually use, but it didn't make a difference. He knew that was going to work in the long run anyway, and he doubted that, if he got back to Earth, he would be able to level up again.

As things stood now, he was far too strong to even earn a single C.L.A.S.P. point from the strongest monster on earth.

Reidar had prioritized his Enchanting and Tailoring. It hadn't been straightforward to level these skills while moving, but the repetition and the use of the many materials he had pushed his proficiencies higher in a relatively short amount of time.

Reidar landed in the shadow of a basalt cliff, ten miles from the city in front of him, and finally checked his progress.

Reidar looked at the changes and went through them mentally. His Health had more than doubled, jumping from 13,900 to 34,980.

The increase resulted from him spending every single attribute point he had earned into S.H.I.E.L.D., plus the effects of the new [Hardened Resilience] perk, which added a 10% bonus to his maximum health.

Reidar had realized that his firepower was already high enough to handle most things if he had enough time to set everything up, but his physical frailty was a problem in a world where monsters were Level 600 or higher.

His level had jumped from 464 to 480, but that was not enough. However, the increase in his health was not the only new thing. His Mana had also seen a massive jump, rising to 144,596.15. This boost was due to his new equipment set.

The Ignis gear he got from the monsters and the quest was far superior to the one he'd brought from Earth. The only problem was that it wasn't tailored for summoners. But at that point, it didn't matter.

The gear itself was a complete set. Gone was the alien metal and strange cloth of his Aegis Phalanx equipment, replaced by armor forged from the planet that was trying to kill him. The Ignis Pyre-Crown was a circlet of dark metal set with a shard of a core.

The Molten-Heart Robe was layered hide, inscribed with glowing runes that siphoned heat away from his body. Every piece, from the Ash-Walkers on his feet to the Eternal-Flame Ring on his finger, was made from something he'd killed.

His attributes had all gone up. S.H.I.E.L.D. increased from a base of 27.5 to 70, and the equipment bonus jumped from 111.5 to 248. A.C.U.M.E.N. had a bonus increase from 200.5 to 750, though his base of 142 stayed the same. F.L.A.I.R.'s bonus went from 82 to 227. F.L.I.P.'s attribute increased from 95 to 140.

His combat proficiencies had ranked up too. Intermediate Spellcraft Mastery was replaced with Advanced Spellcraft Mastery, now at 12%. Warrior's Dominion became Warrior's Sovereignty, now at 5%.

Aside from that, Reidar added a large set of new perks focused on survival and crafting, spending all the perk points he'd accumulated. The new survival perks included Hardened Resilience, Endless Endurance, Stealthy Presence, Environmental Adaptation, and Intuitive Navigation.

The crafting and resource perks included Volatile Essence, Production Efficiency, Resource Purity, and an additional Item Durability perk. His Blueprint Genius perk had also been upgraded from 1 to 9 to 7/7.
