Capítulo 84: ch84- Ultimate Upgrade
After spending another 1.2 million merit points, Alex finally hit the 100 million mark in total spending, earning himself the coveted "Billion Merit Pack" as the first person to claim it. The pack only contained one item—a radiant scroll.
**[SSR Skill Advancement Scroll: Use to upgrade one advanced skill to the 'Ultimate' level.]**
Alex didn't know if "Ultimate" was the highest skill tier, but it was certainly stronger than his current level. Without the SSR scroll, advancing his "Berserk Mode" to the next tier would have required consuming 10 growth points.
Speaking of skill levels and growth points, Alex suddenly remembered he still had 129 unused skill points and 13 growth points at his disposal.
He checked his current skill levels and realized that aside from his "Berserk Mode" and "Sword Counter," the three new skills he had acquired the previous day remained unupgraded. "Berserk Mode" was currently at advanced expert level and needed 19 skill points to reach advanced master level, while "Sword Counter" was at advanced master level and needed 20 skill points to reach the next tier, "Supreme."
After a moment of thought, Alex used the SSR scroll on "Berserk Mode," upgrading it to the "Ultimate" level.
After the upgrade, "Berserk Mode" transformed into something entirely new, now called **[Ultimate Mode (Customizable Name)]**, with vastly improved skill effects:
---
**[Ultimate Mode (Ultimate Proficient Level)]: Consumes 1% energy every 5 seconds, increasing all attributes by 20% per second. Grants a 10-meter attack spread. For damage exceeding the rate of attribute increase, there is a 50% chance to double the attribute boost; for damage below the rate of attribute increase, there is a 50% chance to nullify the damage. After stopping energy consumption, the effect lasts for 10 additional seconds.**
---
Though the skill level had reverted to proficient, and the numbers didn't seem dramatically different, in reality, this **Ultimate Mode** was almost invincible. Previously, "Berserk Mode" only boosted attack power, but now it increased all attributes. Every five seconds, Alex's overall strength would double.
The passive effects were even more terrifying: attacks that exceeded his growth rate would trigger double the attribute increase, while attacks that fell short would be completely nullified. Essentially, if Alex activated "Ultimate Mode," he would be nearly invincible unless someone could one-shot him instantly.
Furthermore, with a 10-meter attack spread, Alex could imagine the sheer terror he'd bring, becoming an unstoppable force, cutting down anything in his path.
Despite this overwhelming power, Alex found it amusing that he rarely had the chance to use these god-like abilities. They had been sitting idle in his skill bar, gathering metaphorical dust, though they were capable of causing massive destruction.
However, unused or not, it was time to spend those skill points.
With 129 skill points in hand, Alex decided to upgrade his remaining skills. **[Soul of the Guardian]**, **[Strongest Arrival]**, and **[Dragon Flame]** were all at the advanced basic level. It would take 22 skill points each to upgrade them to the advanced master level, costing him a total of 66 skill points.
After upgrading these three skills, their effects became significantly more potent:
---
**[Dragon Flame (Advanced Master Level)]: The breath of death representing the wrath of the Dragon God.**
- **Effect 1:** Normal attacks deal 100% burn damage, and the burn effect stacks.
- **Effect 2:** Explosive Flame: Deals 10% damage to enemies within a 13-meter radius in front of Alex, lowering their defense by 40%. This effect stacks. Cooldown: 10 seconds.
- **Effect 3:** Dragon's Breath: Consumes 10% energy to deal 48,750 damage or 520% attack damage (whichever is higher) to enemies within 100 meters. Cooldown: 90 seconds.
---
**[Strongest Arrival (Advanced Master Level)]: Consumes 50% energy, boosts all attributes by 250%, lasts 360 seconds. Cooldown: 12 hours.**
---
**[Soul of the Guardian (Advanced Master Level)]: Consumes 50% energy, boosts all attributes by 250% for 360 seconds. During this time, all skills can be used twice without cooldown. Cooldown: 90 minutes. Against non-human enemies, effects are tripled.**
---
While these skills might not seem as absurdly overpowered as **Ultimate Mode**, they were still incredibly strong, each qualifying as top-tier abilities.
Even after using 66 skill points, Alex still had 63 left. Upgrading **Ultimate Mode** to "Ultimate Expert Level" would cost 29 skill points, while advancing it to master level would take a whopping 80 points, so that was out of the question for now.
To advance **Sword Counter** to "Supreme" level required 20 skill points. Upon reaching this level, Alex discovered it could be upgraded further to the **"Transcendent"** tier, requiring only 1 super skill point.
Super skill points were rare, but Alex had accumulated 50 of them, not even knowing how to spend them.
With all his skills upgraded, Alex's overall strength surged once again.
As advanced skills, **[Strongest Arrival]**, **[Soul of the Guardian]**, and **[Dragon Flame]** were each linked to specific attributes, with three of these skills boosting Constitution, while the others enhanced Strength, Spirit, and Agility.
However, since his Strength, Spirit, and Perception had already reached their maximum limits, only his Constitution and Agility saw small increases.
Interestingly, upgrading **Ultimate Mode** seemed to push his attributes beyond their previous limits. Though the skill only advanced from proficient to expert level, all five of Alex's attributes increased by one more level, breaking their previous caps.

Having reached the absolute limit for his SR-tier potential, Alex's attributes were likely some of the highest globally, even just 13 days into the game. Despite feeling somewhat guilty, he couldn't deny that he had essentially become a walking cheat code.
Alex's total expenditure from this event now stood at 88.2 million, with only 11.8 million left to claim the next prize. With that in mind, he purchased 12 more **R-tier Gem Packs**, confident that his overwhelming luck would make it a worthwhile investment, and he could save the gems for future upgrades to his "Belos" set.
