Because Silver Big Bad Wolf took 40% of the experience, the 561 ghosts only gave Wu Shaozhen 370,944 experience points. He was still level 22, at 462982/500000. If Silver Big Bad Wolf hadn't taken that extra 20%, Wu Shaozhen would have leveled up already. He didn't mind at all, though. It was only experience; he could get plenty whenever he wanted. What concerned him was that, despite all that experience, Silver Big Bad Wolf had only reached level 10. Still, the increase in strength could only be described as terrifying.
[Silver Big Bad Wolf] Aptitude: Awakening... Level: 10 Health: 40400 Mana: 2200 Physical attack: 550 Physical defense: 330 Spell defense: 220 Speed: 220
These level 10 stats were already far stronger than Silver Big Bad Wolf's previous stats. And with the aptitude still awakening, there should be room for further improvement. Most importantly, Silver Big Bad Wolf's speed had grown significantly, reaching 220 at level 10. That meant they could work together against bosses in the future. Previously, Wu Shaozhen hadn't dared send Silver Big Bad Wolf out to tank damage because the wolf was slower than the bosses. Sending the wolf out would have been practically a one-way trip. Although a dead pet could be summoned again after an hour and only lost one level, repeated deaths would lower loyalty. If loyalty fell too low, the pet would turn against its owner. That was why Wu Shaozhen had never considered sending Silver Big Bad Wolf to die. Perhaps that was also why Silver Big Bad Wolf had remained willing to be his pet after awakening. At level 10, the wolf had grown considerably, though still only reaching his calves.
