There were a few things he could do in the remaining time, and the most important one was to grind his level.

He wasted no time and started walking toward the village’s main gate.

It was much different from the previous day since most of the old players had already gotten massacred in that Hibiki Snake fight.

That was another mystery—how did all of them even die so fast? Still, without them, there was no rush in the village today.

The new players were certainly rushing to do the chain quest, but there were at most a few hundred scattered throughout the village.

Heck, even the line before the village core was just a few hundred meters long, smaller than the line at the outside shop he encountered yesterday.

Not thinking much about them, he rushed into the village.

This time, he chose not to switch to bird form. After all, very few would remember his face, but the moment they saw him switch, it would be chaos again.

He glanced at a bunch of players who were talking about birdmen and such. He just rolled his eyes and rushed deeper into the village.

...

Cling!

Forsyx blocked the goblin dagger with his low-grade iron knife and then stabbed his bronze knife into its skull.

Grrrr!

The goblin didn’t even get to scream as it went limp.

Ding!

[You have killed Level 10 Goblin Assassin.]

[You have leveled up!]

[Error: Level 2 Lab required!]

Forsyx smiled at the error as he hit Level 10.

He had already reached the ceiling for his current level.

In Apex Online, all kinds of hidden classes had these level ceilings.

Upon reaching them, if you didn’t meet a certain requirement, you’d be stuck at your current level.

The more powerful the class, the more absurd the requirements.

Well, thankfully, he only needed to upgrade his lab to the next level. It wasn’t a big deal for him at this point. He had already earned sufficient funds from Hibiki’s death and that special quest.

Now that he thought about the lab upgrade, there was another special upgrade going on.

He was kind of excited about it. After all, nothing like this had happened in his past life.

There was just one thing: whether those three from Radiant knew the importance of that crimson egg.

Who was he even trying to convince? He was damn sure their target had been that egg from the start.

He might’ve made some very troublesome enemies... but it was worth it.

At that moment, a notification pulled him out of his thoughts.

Ding!

[You have received 10 copper coins and one goblin eye.]

He saw the goblin’s body disintegrating in front of him.

He shook his head, then checked the countdown; less than 10 minutes left.

Well, it wasn’t enough time, so he pulled out the Special Template Change Ticket from his inventory.

It was just a thin strip of golden paper. He wasted no time and ripped it into two pieces.

The next moment, everything around him became dark, and he saw three template cards lying face down in front of him.

He opened his inventory and pulled out both Pipler Bird and Green Hook Snake template card and placed them face-up next to the other cards.

This was just a projection of his storage table.

He then picked the sole red card that was shining among the other white cards.

The next moment, the stats distribution popped up in front of him.

[Creature Template: Black Dire Wolf. (Normal)

Description: The infamous howl of the moonless night. The shadow of nights. Some call them red-eyed demons, others fantasize about their loud howls. They are ruthless predators of darkness.

-> Stats exchange:

AGI -> +20%.

STR-> +40%.

DEF-> -10%.

STA-> +20%

Int-> -40%

-> Special Racial Trait:

Moonless: During a moonless night, all stats increase by 20%.

-> Skill:

Sonic Howl.

]

He stared at the Dire Wolf template with wide eyes. He couldn’t believe he actually got a template with a Racial Trait.

Heck, even in his last life, he had only seen a couple of template cards with Racial Traits.

These traits were special, hidden abilities that only a rare few creatures of a species could have.

Only unique and high-grade monsters had a chance to possess the trait.

Players called any monster with traits a semi-boss.

Semi-bosses were extremely rare to find, and many of them were more valuable than their boss variants.

Heck, if that Hibiki had the Poison Flare racial trait, then forget the players, even the combined monsters around the village wouldn’t have survived against it.

Though it also depended on the racial trait of the species.

This Moonless trait of Dire Wolves was kind of decent.

While the stat gain was definitely crazy, it only lasted a single night each month.

Still, having a racial trait was better than having none.

As for the stat changes, overall, he’d gain 30% extra in his six base stats. Same as other unique-grade template cards he was familiar with in his past life.

He finally tapped on the skill: Sonic Howl. This would decide the potential of the template.

[Sonic Howl: The soulless howl of a forgotten beast will induce fear.

Effect: Drops enemy stats by 5% for five minutes. Cooldown: 1 hour.]

Forsyx smiled.

This skill was kind of perfect for use during the monster phase.

A tailor-made ability for the upcoming situation. He wasted no more time and said, with the Dire Wolf template card in his hand, "Equip the template."
