100
Added 2020-04-26 05:01:00 +0000 UTCWow, chapter 100.
I still can’t believe it myself. When I started this, I never even thought I’d make it to chapter 10. Then people started saying they liked it, and I was having so much fun writing it that I just kept going. And then things kinda got out of control.
You all rock.
Enjoy!

PS: I’m having internet troubles, so don’t fret if it takes me a bit to respond. Posting this took some doing, let me tell you. Hardware problem, and on my end, so the cable company is going to have to send someone to fix it. That is going to take a bit, which is good, because it will take me a while to build the airlock.
In the meantime, I needed to go out (gasp!) and get a USB wifi adapter from a brick-and-mortar store TEN MINUTES before they closed. They threw it through the window of my car. Wouldn’t let anyone inside, you know? Then I needed the device driver, which was on the CD (Yes, a CD. Yes, really. I know right?) that came with it, but then my ancient bluray drive wouldn’t read it. Feelsbadman. That’s okay, I can just download it...online...oh.
Tech hijinks ensued.
So now I’m on my desktop PC, tethered to my phone’s wifi hotspot, drinking up my pathetic data cap. I’m gonna have to do something about that...
PPS: Remember MP3s? I have some on my hard drive. They don’t take data! Can you believe it? These songs remind me of high school.

10 minutes left to go. Anticipation rising.

2020-05-03 04:52:24 +0000 UTCThe system would not give those sorts of numbers, as all it gives is a measure to some set standard. There is also no guarantee that an Aura would do more damage to a larger creature. As hit points and aura damage are measures of some weird magical energy fields. Of a type that does not have much respect for physics.

2020-05-02 18:57:42 +0000 UTCThis just occurred to me, but shouldn't there be some sort of damage per square foot included in the aura attacks? I get that it would be a lot of extra work and probably not worth figuring out for each monster, but shouldn't a monster with more surface area to attack be taking more damage than a smaller monster?

2020-05-02 17:54:49 +0000 UTCWhat reader are you using? There are dividers there, but some people have had problems, depending on what epub reader they are using. Try a different one, or try the PDF.

2020-04-27 15:10:25 +0000 UTCI love how unconcerned Tallheart is with everything haha. Senescent Soul-sama, do you think you could dividers in between different people's perspectives to break it up easier? You did use names, which was helpful

2020-04-27 15:06:28 +0000 UTCRain is the hero, in his own mind, but he doesn't have the power to save everyone. That tension will cost him everytime he fails.to live up to his own expectations until it causes a change. Maybe the change is Rain get strong enough to live up to his own expectations, maybe his expectations change.

2020-04-27 15:03:54 +0000 UTCMaybe I like grime dark stories and gore or anti heroes in general but lately I began to dislike the story. Rain seems like a hero through and through from saving dogs to saving a city and people. It feels like I am reading a comic book charecter hero then someone who transported into a fantasy world. His thought process is the definition of goodness and everything he does is for the sake of people. I mean we all like to help people but most of the time people are selfish creatures and our thought processes is much darker then how we talk and behave. I am not sure where this story headed to I mean would it be more saving people and mc trying to grasp his sense of morality and hooking up with Amelia.
2020-04-27 14:57:11 +0000 UTCGods, I was strong then.
SenescentSoul
2020-04-27 07:08:02 +0000 UTCTheres a lot more to power generation and grid management than just a simple magnetic coil generator. I doubt Rain has the electrical engineering knowledge to allow them to do this.

2020-04-27 06:12:27 +0000 UTCWhen you were describing Mazell I kept imagining her sending off some boy to get her the breastplate stretcher. Just me?

2020-04-27 03:01:55 +0000 UTCI think that was just code words to verify that the message was received. Or maybe some Watch protocol or plan.
ParadoxFox
2020-04-27 02:58:13 +0000 UTCThere was a softer-than-expected noise as the slime detached from the wall above the tunnel. "Try again." Alexei blinked, confused by his reflexes. In the distance, his father, the submarine's captain, turned a corner, striking a large volume of unbreakable steel. But he was too far away to save Alexei. Alexei's eyes widened in astonishment. For the first time in his life, he felt ashamed that he had failed to save himself from harm. "Motherfucker! What the fuck are you doing!?! Your kid doesn't know how to operate that cannon!" "Even for a rat, his logic is astonishing."

2020-04-27 02:48:26 +0000 UTCSC, you can take a week off. We've got talktotransformer.com Rain switched to Immolate. The skill was on whitelist mode, with only “monsters” listed on the display. The slime was classified as a monster, as confirmed by Detection, so he was good to go. “Let’s get cooking.” Using Blood Magic, the other Demons attacked his targets while he was waiting for his to be able to pull off double flicker to kill his target. He collected the corpses and started polishing his nails, then discovered a piece of paper. A page that had the character logo of 'Memphis' written on it. This was one of the skills that ”Grim Reaper‟ had obtained in exchange for the production of weapons, and was

2020-04-27 02:45:57 +0000 UTCWaste of mana, but eventually...absolutely. Kinda wondered what happened to the legions of crystal slimes he created when returning lost Watch plates/weapons/accolades.

2020-04-27 02:39:28 +0000 UTCSo, I'm guessing that there is a level 19 Drake considering Bartum's message?
Harley Shockley
2020-04-27 01:47:26 +0000 UTCGood because.. you've breathed more life into the Characters. (Mazell) Something that has been noticeably lacking prior.
His Dad
2020-04-27 00:16:26 +0000 UTCI think you may be aiming a bit high with 50+. Personally I'd be happy with 27.

DNAjester
2020-04-26 22:00:17 +0000 UTCWell done on reaching 100, I have very much enjoyed the story.
2020-04-26 21:04:05 +0000 UTCVery nice chapter! The story is continuing and finally we can see the possibility of Rain having a lvl50+ blue to kill inside the dome so he can greatly increase his level cap and improve his stats for managing to hack the control stone of the dome!
Andrei
2020-04-26 20:27:35 +0000 UTCIt occurs to me that rain could purify all the slime that are popping up to create an small army that is at the very least hostile to both if not neutral

2020-04-26 19:10:33 +0000 UTC"In Soviet Fel Sadanis, Goomba Stomps You!" Thank you, so much, for that line.
Monty
2020-04-26 19:01:29 +0000 UTChmmm. So... what if Stavo goes Edison on Rain and makes an electric grid by stealing Rain's knowledge to illuminate Fel Sadanis 24/7 to avoid monster spawns?

2020-04-26 16:48:44 +0000 UTCPrice for the coolest guy in this chapter goes to tallheart - nothing beats an enemy as his own arm. xD

2020-04-26 13:56:28 +0000 UTCThat was really great!
Isekaitis
2020-04-26 13:09:53 +0000 UTCCongratulations on 100, SenSoul! This chapter was a ton of fun... Lately the story has been enjoyable but far too much "spreadsheet work" for my preference. Seeing some good old-fashioned excitement and action is satisfying. I'm particularly happy to see Val and Mlem coming back to the stage. Val's caution-to-the-winds approach to life can be irritating, but it's exactly what is needed right now and I'm eaten up with curiosity about his new class.
David K. Storrs
2020-04-26 13:05:56 +0000 UTCSeems like it takes a long time to Purify a slime. He was in a hurry and likely it was faster just to kill them.
David K. Storrs
2020-04-26 13:01:52 +0000 UTCan excellent chapter! Can't wait for next week.
2020-04-26 12:14:21 +0000 UTCWouldn't it have been smarter for Rain to defeat all those bunched up Slimes (and the Greater Slimes in the sewers) with Purify? Crystal Slimes attack other Slimes on sight, so purifying one is like killing at least two in the long term. More if the Crystal Slimes get to high enough numbers in any one place to swarm and overwhelm new Slimes that pop up without much risk to themselves. Also Purify is much cheaper than Refrigerate.

Andrew
2020-04-26 09:13:05 +0000 UTCHehe I don't use optical disks of any sort anymore but I still have a .mp3 player that I run with. My phone is too big and heavy to run with (its like having a small brick flop around in my pocket) and I don't like the arm straps. I also don't really want to get sweat on my phone either. So I use a small and light .mp3 player instead. Battery time lasts much longer on one of those than a cellphone anyways. It does get me weird looks from time to time though because it seems everyone stopped using them about 10-15yr ago or so when cellphones really took off
tibbish
2020-04-26 08:33:13 +0000 UTCCool that Rain is making an adventurer guide, maybe that will be his contribution as a Platinum, somehow spreading his contribution to the System and make it so all Awakened can access it
Blaublue
2020-04-26 08:28:20 +0000 UTCKilling monsters work differently when outside of a Dungeon, so even them being nearby might be enough to awaken them (just like Rain awakened to lvl 18 with 0% contribution) - it is about time for Rain to find a lvl 25+ blue as well
Blaublue
2020-04-26 08:27:02 +0000 UTCYou know what will be awesome? They find a blue in the city, something around 15-30 levels would be awesome. And Rain convinces everyone to hit it, or get in the fight. By everyone, I mean as many people from the city as possible. Now, thousands of level 25 people, that would be a crazy, wouldn't it ?
FillerArc
2020-04-26 08:21:15 +0000 UTCWho here is hoping that the Fells level jumped high enough to produce a level 25 blue?
Alec
2020-04-26 07:51:57 +0000 UTCDamn Tallheart is a beast!
Bilbo Jerkins
2020-04-26 07:50:40 +0000 UTCThe Epub is broken for me again, ending on page 20. Checked against the pdf to be sure, and it's not just saying it is shorter, it actually is.
2020-04-26 07:31:58 +0000 UTCI mostly use flac same thing but *CD quality* with lossless compression (if the source is a CD). There are some online stores wich sells 24-bit flac also probably ripped from master tapes, DVD-Audio or SACD. But probably needs better equipment than mine to get the most out of those.
Andreas Olsson
2020-04-26 07:04:48 +0000 UTCExcellent chapter. Congrats on chapter 100. I prefer the slow progress of stat increases, levels and skills but this is an excellent action packed chapter that ushers in a bunch of new challenges. I thought that you showed the chaos of the situation well. Mlem and the alchemists were hilarious and I really want them to get together. Hopefully the rank shift will provide opportunities to level up and awaken the population. If they can be protected from greater threats by the shield while building strength and expertly planning builds they will be in a good position to spread out and influence the region after Rain learns how to lower the shield. See you next week for 101.

2020-04-26 06:35:33 +0000 UTCI still use mp3s to this day ! All organized neatly into folders, with the new ones piling up in the root folder until I go through another round of sorting.

2020-04-26 06:31:42 +0000 UTCCan’t decide up/down. Good chapter but was actually looking forward to some reactions from his friends on soul leaking, etc. kinda skipped over that entirely.
Dal Frakked
2020-04-26 06:12:55 +0000 UTCThe Fells blue was 5-6? Even a 10 level jump won’t be enough. His cap is level 18...nothing sighted over 13 yet.
Dal Frakked
2020-04-26 06:10:35 +0000 UTCI'm assuming you have android? On iOS, the default "Books" app handles the charts pretty well.
Garrett
2020-04-26 06:09:45 +0000 UTCHey anyone know a good epub reader that lets me see the Blue stat screens (android) I only read PDF because my e-pub reader formats the blue boxes into text.
KingHonolulu
2020-04-26 06:06:12 +0000 UTCMaybe? Monsters have been stated to be disgusting before so that might just be a Cervidian thing, unless fungiforms are an exception for some reason.
Garrett
2020-04-26 06:03:04 +0000 UTCThat last bit about eating the fungal forms. Seems they will have the food issue solved.
Chris
2020-04-26 06:00:26 +0000 UTCDid the rank shift effect the dungeon? If the dungeon increased 5-10 levels maybe Rain will be able to fight a blue and break his level cap that way.
Andrew
2020-04-26 05:44:20 +0000 UTCGreat chapter! We've had a lot of build up in the past few chapters so seeing shit start to really hit the fan is a lot of fun. Congrats on the one hundred chapter mark and here's to a hundred more! Thanks!
