modifier once per stat at his current level.
At the moment, he only needed enough agility to move around freely in his armor. It did not weigh enough to slow him down much, but it did force him to adjust his motions slightly due to the design.
“I should go test this out.” It was still too early to go hunt for a rabbit. Scott decided to head off into the grasslands. He had not visited that area since the grass rat horde had descended upon him.
Once he reached the grassland he received a message informing him that baleful eyes had noticed his presence. The grass rats remembered his blasphemy.
It did not take long before a grass rat popped up and attacked him. His agility was high enough to allow him to partially dodge its speedy attacks, but he took a hit early on. He was elated when a big red number zero floated upward. The rat could not even touch him!
Scott danced with the rat for a few minutes, and another rat appeared. He was not wearing the grass skirt, so they did not appear in a horde. However, they were still pissed at him. They were a natural swarm creature. Every few minutes another rat appeared.
Whenever the rats attacked he took the hit, but his armor completely stopped the damage! This was amazing!
He whirled and danced with the dog-sized rodents for about half an hour before something happened that changed his mind. Scott stumbled a little and a rat leapt toward his face!
<<< Critical hit! Your defense decreases drastically! >>>
The sorcerer screamed out in pain as the rat tore into his cheek with its oversized teeth. He ripped it away, but he was immediately attacked several times in rapid succession. Each attack hit for a small amount of damage. His health rapidly dropped. He lost nineteen hit points in the space of two seconds.
Scott managed to recover from the critical hit and his defense returned. However, he was no longer taking this fight for granted! Normal attacks from the rats were useless in the face of his armor. However, if he were to take another critical hit it would mean almost certain death!
He lashed out with a freeze spell to slow four of the seven rats attacking him. The three remaining rats continued to jump and attack, but he ignored them due to his higher defense. Instead, he focused on finishing off the four half-frozen rodents.
Steel clawed fists raced out to slam into hapless monsters. He punched his steel-clad hand into the side of the closest rat, killing it instantly. A bright red number seventy-four floated upward. He noticed it, but tuned out that bit of information for the moment.
Scott continued his assault by slamming his elbow out and to the side in order to catch a leaping rat in mid-air. The attack was followed by a sudden shift back to his right that allowed him to punch the other leaping rat with the same hand via a powerful reverse punch. Both of the furry little bastards died instantly. Not, only was his level a little higher than the rats’ level, but the equipment he wore had given him a massive advantage!
Another rat appeared from the grass, but it was not a concern. Scott unleashed another Freeze spell and finished off three more of the remaining rats. Now, it was a one on one battle. The eighth rat did not stand a chance.
After around a minute the battle music faded away and victory music began to play.

Scott panted slightly then felt his cheek. His armored fingers came away with blood on them. That had been close, and stupid. He gained no special bonuses for making battles last longer. Yes, he had needed to see how bad his agility was in actual practice, but he could have died.
Thoughts of agility reminded him of his current purpose. He opened his skill upgrade menu and spent forty ability points to increase his agility level-up modifier by
