Hidden Epic Quests are Too Broken

Recovering from his shock, Yu Zhen hurriedly turned off his player name.

'Were all the things I got from this quest always this easy to get? Wait, what the hell am I saying. I just had experience surviving in the wild. If it were any other player, they wouldn't even make it through the level 1-10 areas much less this deathtrap mountain.' Yu Zhen tried to justify himself getting so many benefits.'I'm a bit mad that the amount of experience gained was the same as what was required for the bow but I can't be greedy. Plus just the name of this bow makes me think it'll be worth it.'

Yu Zhen took out his bow with trembling hands and checked the stats before blanking out for 10 seconds.

After snapping out of his shock, Yu Zhen was speechless.'What the hell is this? Why am I becoming so broken? If this weapon grows then what's the limit of its growth?' Yu Zhen thought before throwing these thought to the back of his mind.

The grade of weapons are as follows:

Ordinary, Magic, Master, Grand-master, King, Emperor, Sage, Saint.

Once again, the highest grade that Yu Zhen had heard of was Emperor.

"Status" Yu Zhen said, preparing to check the last of the things he needed to.

'Holy Sh*t, am I a Divine Creature now too?! I have stats several level above my own. All I need is good equipment and I can properly contend with higher levels.' Yu Zhen was stupefied 'Let's see here, if i'm not mistaken, Strength increases physical power, agility increases attack and movement speed, endurance increases health and defence and lastly, Intelligence increases magic power. From what I remember, there are certain stat thresholds where one gets a stat skill and the first one is 30 for every stat, but stats from equipment don't count. Well then, let's check the titles.'

"I wanted to show what I could do with my skills, not my stats...No wait, I only got this because of my years of surviving in the wilderness. Even though I had nothing to compare it to at that time, i'm sure my skills were beyond normal human capabilities" Yu Zhen tried to console himself.

"Assign 4 skill points to the skills [Calm Breath], [Power Shot], and [Novice Archery]

[Acquired skills [Calm Breath Level 5+1], [Power Shot Level 5+1], [Archery Level 5+1]]

'Skill points are very hard to come by since they increase the level of any skill bellow level 5 by 1 for every point assigned. And at every 5 level interval it increases by 1.'

"I can finally go grind levels. I should be able to catch up rather quickly since my stats are way above my level and my skills are great. I even have a glass cannon as backup."Yu Zhen let out a sigh of relief."The only thing is...do I have to go all the way back to the level 1-10 zones from here? That's gonna take too long."

SKREE~

An eagle call louder than the one that killed him before sounded throughout the mountain peak.

[You have died]

[Will revive at the last city you visited in 30 minutes]

"..."

"Guess that's one way to go back."
