Chapter 1272 - The Good (Mostly Good) And Bad Parts of Evolution

Comments

It is funny to me how a C rank epic skill would be a rare B skill. If you think about it as skills having a + or - value pr rank, it would mean that any rare skill would be danged good at any rank. A C rank skill that is common might be epic to a F rank person, but it also show potential growth. And it is easier to upgrade lower rarity skill is it not. :D

Jørgen

Cliffmas in February! Yay!

Nicole Sparks

It's kinda his thing? Oh wait, wrong patreon author.

Steven Lacks

So... Jake could stand in the middle of Australia and be able to see side to side

Sera

I am suprised the skill downgrades happened before the class and profession evolution, i would have expected them afterward

Greg Alverson

Those always pop out at me too

Robert Healy

Slander

Tristin S Alderson

Maybe if he didn't make every stat except perception a dump stat, he wouldn't have so many issues with his sphere of perception. Just a thought. Yes, perception is a good stat, but too much of anything is always a bad thing.

Rainer

I feel like coughing blood seeing that one skill at Inferior. ( ´Д`)

Cerby

Jake Juice is now officially canon oh dear god.

Cerby

Yep that's a typo for sure. It was also in the stat update

Nebulous

Tftc Zog!

Chase Burleson

I dot. Get why Jake feels bad about his skills getting downgraded. It only means that he has more room to improve them and make them cooler.

It was definitely sufficiently loosely worded that it could apply!! If not Villy could make him the deputy Hall Master or something. Certainly anyone ruled by his council in the Milky Way and potentially when he wins Seat of Exalted Prima. Oh! what about "allies" so all of the Pantheon of Life!

Yes, thank you for the chappy Zogarth!

Hold up. Thought just popped into my head about his skill from last chapter. Since he’s the Chosen of Villy, does that make the Order his subordinates? Cause if so… uh

Beckendwarf

Still catching up! Its going great! One suggestion though for chapter...1257 The word "...moment..." is used a bit too frequently, when referring to slightly slowing down/ impeding the formation master. if you can swap some of those sayings with other synonyms i think it would flow a bit better Tyfcs!

Seen Death

Dude really loves leaving us on cliffs in December it like his present to himself knowing that we all want to know what will happen next for however long his break will be

The worldbuilding and system interactions are some of my favorite parts of this series, so anytime a grade evolution comes around im locked tf in.

Deadpoet

Yeah he’s gotta go in person for that meeting though idk if that’s soemthing I’d wanna say I’ve the phone

Borbino the great

What’s that theory? If I can get a recap or a chapter number to count down

Borbino the great

I could see the chapter being just reactions — Aeon and SS might notice something and chat, Miranda should definitely notice something, maybe a brief view of Jake’s family in the multiverse… Sandy and Sylphie… Vesperia… Jacob… some Earth and Milky Way allies… And of course Villy, Duskleaf, and Artemis.

Clint

Okay, just read the whole bloodline/JJ upgrade part. My theory about how his bloodline works only gets stronger and more supported by the chapter.

Cmndprmpt

Which dragon?

Gardor

In case you didn't see the post, Zog has basically confirmed he won't finish the evolution before going on holidays. A week long evolution ... Yay...

John Burton

Considering the power Jake will have by the time that dragon fights him… will it even be a fair fight??

Miguel Sanchez

Class next obviously. I'd prefer not to wait 2 weeks for that.

zozzy the beast

You mean jake

Jaroslav Zapadlo

No way the system would expose him like that. That would be basically spilling beans about his bloodline wich the systems does not do period. Even after his death Jake can only See elhakans bloodline as "redacted" so no i dont think she will get a notification

Hornbach

TYFTC

DARK LORD DAISHI

Hmm. I'm guessing tomorrow is the start of the profession evolution and then he'll talk to Villy before selecting a direct upgrade to what he already has? I mention it bc when he did his C grade profession the Viper instantly reached out to Jake to say he yanked a ton of the Viper's records. So maybe Jake will have a chat before the yank and they can talk about the race stuff too? He's going to talk to Villy about both, so might as well get it all done at once. I think that's the gentlest cliff, leaving class to be evolved after break

Josie

Thanks for the chapter.

Joshua Little

tomorrow Jake gets called to help Arnold with an emergency. silphie is chasing sandy around the moon because he cheated in their race.

brjenness

Class time !

Thenais

If all Villy does tomorrow is talk about what was written today, i will be a bit annoyed (should have been in today’s chapter)

TeamNoPants

There will be a chapter or two about him reading the class names, a chapter or two about him picking, another one or two about getting his skills, and a recap when he talks to Villy. Patience is key lol

Fleetpanda

Poor Arnold 🤣🤣

smore

I just realized... Miranda probably gets a notification from the spirit of man thing, with every human on earth getting a boost from jake...

Arkenian

So I feel like the foreshadowing immediately prior to evolution where he met up with sandy and sylphie for absolutely no reason other than to drop the line "sylphie feels so powerful I'm not even confident I could escape her" (paraphrased) and the bit about them bullying him with their far superior speed. For a sweet call back when he comes out of his evolutions and Villy chats and immediately flexes on them.

Nick Elliott

And that's just the surface too. It goes up into the air and down into the ground as well.

What other Bloodline info were you hoping for..? Also, I would call filler being absurd extra that's either repetitive or useless and unentertaining (try reading Dan Schinhoffen). Just admit to yourself that you're a greedy progression goblin. Its okay, we all are! Why else would we be giving some dude 10 bucks a month to tell us a story?

AWKW1ZARD

Duskleaf is probably upset that if he did feel anything, its messing with his current experiment in alchemy.

RnR_ RnR

Im envious of future generations who get to read this series in completion.

RnR_ RnR

Feel the buff sylphie?

RnR_ RnR

somewhere, someone is realizing villy might be as strong as valdemar and wondering if they should do anything to prevent him from getting stronger. for the good of the multiverse.

brjenness

odds that duskleaf is driving villy insane wanting to know what is going on?

brjenness

Tft

Jeryd Greer

I think that was just the early book way of explaining why the system quantifies a percentage gain like a title, but from his bloodline. Bloodlines are not supposed to give percentage stat gains. So the early books theorized the system just quantified the quality improvement it applies to his perception as a straight stat gain since it's outside the system.

Thanks for the chapter!

“Hey did your sacred skill get downgraded? Oh wait you don’t have one and aren’t even capable of hearing me talk about it? Get fucked.”

John Kornegay

Im assuming with the population boom of the planet, the noise level is exponentially higher

Jared Bell

After leveling each one to 350 and evolving them separately. He got a perfect evolution meaning both class and prof were primed to peak grade to get the required race level. But most people appear to have one much higher level, which causes a race evolution after the other is already that grade.

Jared Bell

Counter point you can see them react to all evolution at the same time rather than calling between each evolution.

Jett Sullivan

Tftc gimme that sweet new class and procession

IntenseSushi

Ah man. I was really looking forward to Jake telling Arnold to get fucked. It's one of those sports that just never gets old.

Matt

Wait when does he get offered a new profession and class?

mitchell kaiser

Shadowind

tftc!

GeneticSloth

Wait, there’s 2 more evolutions? Now we talking! We need this level of OP.

Abhishek

Ok I feel a little let down building all this anticipation and barely any info really released on the blood line it has more filler than one piece

Keion

Here’s hoping for just a Villy and Artemis talk first then break. I’d like to see some Ygg and Natures Attendant POV too (in-laws matter too). Gives me time to detox while on break and then let the chapters pile up before I jump back in with a load of evolution chapters to look forward to.

Austin

TFTC I wonder if being on a planet affects the signal/noise ratio? If the sphere would be able to cover a huge volume if he were out in space? Or the Void?

Eric Shivak

I wonder if there is an achievement for one’s skills not degrading after evolving.

Quyan640

Most certainly. Had it manifested in anyone else in the integrated multiverse it would have killed them most likely before being able to adapt. The reason he can handle it isn’t the meditation skill but him having learned to suppress it before integration making it not overwhelm him. At least that’s my theory on my it’s evolving too

Phil Ritter

To put it into perspective, the scale of Jake's upgraded sphere of perception is enough to swallow entire states here in America. His snapshot would swallow a large portion of the United States as well as Canada and Mexico. So cool:)

mucky 12

So.. hes definitely going to the moon then right?

Mrburns93

Ty

Bobo

So maybe the real drawback from his bloodline is inherit to kill itself with information overload. Jake learning proper mediation skills is what is saving him...

Timothy Spradlin

I may be miss remembering but doesn't his bloodline also fundamentally make his perception better? I. Universe i think it's called effectiveness.

Fdrugc

There's a good chance that they didnt notice anything at all. Valdemar dis because he's the apex human and eversmile specializes in karma magic. Jake's friends may well not notice at all unless they have a new passive buff active in their UI.

Damascus

Thanks

Fdrugc

If eversmile and valdemar felt the change being that far disconnected and that little buff, imagine what villy, sandy, sylphie and the gang felt. Its probably eating him alive to ask jake what the fuck just happened.

RnR_ RnR

Thanks for the chapter and hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday.

Loststar7

Thanks Zogarth great chapter.

Rewdan

Oooh! So glad this is hitting mid week and not end!! 😂 Thanks for the chapter!

Kt-x

That's less skills than I thought. I thought B-grade would be harsher than C-grade because of the 'breadth' of what one is expected to do in B-grade is higher.

BumAssBumAss

Ree!

Sylphie

I vote for having a conversation. Evolution is cool and all, but I really want to see people's reaction to the new BS skill

Potato Sandwich1

Possibly even a Jake Juice(y) cliff?? Ok. That was bad. And I should feel bad

David

Last we checked the family was traveling the multiverse though.

Fyrtue

Would almost rather get a god pov of their various reactions to a sudden inexplicable experience gain boost none can explain following the race upgrade. That way we don't get any major cliff, but just fun times.

Matthew Avery

Might as well see it through until the break at this point.

Fyrtue

I'm just going to keep this upgraded any time a percentage stat boost changes: ALL: 95% +10% Holder of a Primordial's True blessing +10% Prodigious Slayer of the Mighty +15% Progenitor of the 93rd Universe +5% Nevermore All-Star Challenger +15% Peerless Conqueror of Nevermore +30% Sacred Prodigy +10% Spirit of Man STR: 100% +5% Myriad Paths AGI: 120% +10% Treasure Hunter +5% Myriad Paths +10% C-Grade Path END: 105% +10% C-Grade Path VIT: 115% +10% Blessing +10% Bloodline Patriarch TGH: 105% +10% Blessing WIS: 110% +10% Blessing +5% Treasure Hunter INT: 105% +10% Blessing PER: 145% +30% B-Grade Bloodline +10% Treasure Hunter +10% C-Grade Path WIL: 105% +10% Blessing

Fyrtue

Tftc! Hopefully we go through the class and profession upgrades and have the Villy talk be the vacation cliff… although if we can only fit one of those upgrades in time I vote class.

Spicyice101

Genuinely the master of the tease. Actually yelled “no” when I got to the end

E

I find myself thinking how funny the high level gods skills might read to them personally prior to the system sanatizing them for inheritance by the younger generation. Such as Valdamar possibly having having divine skills and they just being [Swing] Move arm. Or the holy mother having something like. [Light] Shine a light. But then D or C grades recieving these skills being [Crushing strike of heavenly annihilation] Release the destructive potential of the primordial axe upon your foe. Or [Pure white light of truth] Clense the unclean that touches the light of any impurities.

Back to back heat, told myself I was gonna let chapters build up 5 times now - I have failed each time

Thanks for the chapter!

Arieh Sochaczevski

what’s a flight to the moon anyway

Dhia

Could we please have Jake go, ah- actually I'm gonna hold off on class and profession choices for now. I just realized it is christmas times, and I'm gonna hop over to Skyggen, and hang out with the family.

Matthew Avery

I hate the term Jake Juice with the fire of a thousand suns. The fact it is in his official bloodline description makes me sad. I pray to Villy that Jake sorts it out before A-Grade. :( Thanks for the chapter, anyway. After the great Soulflame and Spirit of Man upgrades, can't have everything, lol. I look forward to seeing what else B-Grade has in store for Jake!

Nebulous

rub it in arnold’s face. let him feel envy for his sins

Dhia

You know Zog, just saying here, but you could release that last chapter as a 2 part on Friday or over the weekend. If you wanted to get started on your break sooner. Just saying.

Michael Fannon

TFTC :) Suggested edits: "and was already *not* reining in his senses to *not experience* a massive overload" two things with this. First "not" shouldnt be there. Secondly consider changing "not experience" to "avoid experiencing" just the clean up the grammar. "every kilometer added was a massive increase in *surface area* covered by the sphere," though technically correct, its a sphere so it should be "volume" since Jake experiences the sphere in 3 dimensions. "was almost *as* to be expected" extra word

Xander

Perhaps it gets completly sidelined and we get a peek at Arnolds evolution instead? :D

Matthew Avery

I really should read these weekly rather than daily. Don't know why I'm torturing myself with the Event cliff I can never quite reach.

Siethrobo

I really wanna see Jake pick [Smelly Pot Combatant], and Sylphie going "Ree, ree!😁"

Matthew Avery

Okay so ether new class and profession or Villy talk tomorrow don’t know which I want more

Phoenixdrop

Thank you for the chapter

joel southard

I'm most excited for the profession upgrade. Very curious what paths the system presents. I can't even remember, does Jake have the option to renounce his heresy and truly join the evil snake cult or will we miss the chance to see him repulsed by the idea?

Daryl

We're wondering if the heretic chosen is going to check his awaiting goodies for upgrades or talk to a literal god of the beginning of time that is on the edge of their seat waiting to hear about a B grade race evolution of a human? ... I think we're gonna have Jake go 'Done with race. Imma just do class and profession too, ait' Snake going 'Oh come on... 😪'

Matthew Avery

TTFC lets goo

Dave

We won't get a class evolution till next year, calling it now

Draeysine

It's a race skill, which are left unchanged

Well clearly villy is going to be the cliff for the break, but that will be a juicy cliff 😅

lockx

Imagine he becomes a god and has altered a fuckton of stuff with his origin energy at that point, and he taps into the records to officially change it to Jake Juice, and hundreds if not thousands of creatures now have an unfortunate term permanently embedded in their stat screen. It's like a Villy trap, but it ends in embarrassment instead of genocide
