Updations

You know when you agreed to let victor stay and travel with you, you didn't expect him to fucki'n talk so much I mean all he has been doing these past few hours is talk. It's not even that he talks but the topics he talks about. The most inane and boring things are the center of every. Single. Conversation.

So finally you told the guy to shut it and for the rest of the day you walked in silence only ever talking when needed. As night hit you and victor set up a quick fire and went about business as usual. Suddenly you got a notification screen in your face.

[Dear player, Hadrian Azzralian

'Uhh what happened?'

[Thank you for waiting player update has been installed please check on your new system.]

Stamina: 40

Skills/traits:

[Cyborg] - An organism made up of both organic and cybernetic marvel. This is the result of unconservative methods of evolution that results in an advanced being. Grants 5% damage bonus and has increased growth speed in stats per level of 5 per level.

[Novice Machine Understanding I] - The beginnings of understanding the fundamentals of mechanical concepts. Grants the ability to repair machines with the risk of destroying them completely if failed. Risk increases as Machine complexity increases by level.

[Mechanical Capability] - Parts made of Cybernetic enhancements will receive a base bonus of 15% added defense to the area. May be increased by upgrading cybernetic part.

[Hardware Maintenance] - Due to some parts being made of Cybernetic enhancements, the person will start to experience rapid degradation of performance and growth if parts are not regularly maintained. Performance decreases by 1 stat per 2 days without maintenance. Does not go below 20% of total stats. Stats will immediately be regained upon successful repair but will be permanently lost if Cybernetic part is broken due to degradation

As you look at it the first thing you noticed is how much more polished it looked as if it had been remade. What took your attention after that were the new traits as well as the updated traits and skill.

Seeing that hardware maintenance thing hurts though. I mean only two days before I starts losing stats?! Madness!

It would make him have to use his repair kits more conservatively than originally planned. After taking his attention off that he remembered the father and son duo in his company. You quickly turn towards there stats and this is what you see.

So it seems both of your companions got a makeover though Anton's was much lighter. I mean you could remember Victor's absolute crap stats now look at the man he's a beast! All you could do for hours was look at the stats board and wonder why this had even happened.

That night you went to sleep never knowing the eye's glowing in the dark.
