Chapter 251: Chapter 250: Charm Attribute Enhancement

"Now, if I were to use both hands, I could easily lift a roller of more than ten tons and launch an attack against the enemy. How great is that? This is what an Awakener should be like," Zhang Yanhang was quite satisfied with the power upgrade of Bull Demon Power after leveling up, and he was already anticipating the boosts the next upgrade would bring.

"Besides the amplified Power Effect, Double Strike has added another 25% to my attack power. The extra attack effect has finally reached 100%, and even the triggering chance has increased by 1.2% to 4.8%.

"Before, it was roughly thirty attacks that would trigger an extra attack, but now it’s about every twenty attacks."

Zhang Yanhang estimated that if he could upgrade the Bull Demon Power to level S, the extra attack effect should become higher than the attack itself, and only then would the effect of Double Strike truly be formidable.

"But upgrading the Bull Demon Power to level S requires 243 level E Talent Ant Powers, and I only have 41 left, which means I need 202 more Ant Powers."

According to the drop rate from the treasure box, Zhang Yanhang calculated that he would need to kill about four thousand more Crimson Iron Ants to collect the required amount of Ant Powers.

"I remember when I last explored the Crimson Iron Ant Nest, there seemed to be just over ten thousand ants there in total. I already wiped out a fifth of them; to enhance my Talent, I would need to eliminate another two-fifths of them.

"Previously in the Main World, I thought that this purge of the Crimson Iron Ant Nest might directly elevate my Talent Level to SS. Now it looks like it can only be upgraded to level S, as the remaining two-fifths won’t suffice for the 729 Ant Powers needed for SS level; at most, only a third can be gathered."

Thinking this made Zhang Yanhang even more determined to search for other, larger Crimson Iron Ant Nests. It was truly indispensable as he felt the Talent upgraded by the Ant Power was quite useful to him.

It might even be more useful than the SS level Talent Longevity Mountain and Fortune Sea, because he thought that compared to lifespan, a simple and crude Talent that directly increases strength effects would be more beneficial.

After all, a longer life doesn’t enhance combat power, but increasing strength effects surely and substantively boosts his combat power.

"I should really make more effort to hunt monsters from now on; that’s the only way to quickly enhance my Talent Level." After examining the A-level Talent Power Effect of Bull Demon Power, Zhang Yanhang opened his Attribute list to take a look.

[Strength: 45 (+3)]

[Agility: 44 (+3)]

[Constitution: 47 (+3)]

[Intelligence: 42 (+3)]

[Charm: 16 (+7)]

"The Strength Attribute Value has reached 45 points, only the final five points needed to reach the Second Tier Limit.

"Next, I will continue to level up the Limitless Universe Skill, and the gap between the Strength Attribute and the Second Tier Limit will certainly further decrease. Additionally, I will keep leveling up the A-level Talent Bull Demon Power, which will keep providing more strength attribute bonuses."

Although it presently seems to be five points away from the Second Tier Limit, Zhang Yanhang guessed that after clearing the Crimson Iron Ant Nest, his Strength Attribute should surely reach the Second Tier Limit.

After upgrading his Talent, Zhang Yanhang began to go through other gains in his treasure box. Besides Talents and Soul Points, he also obtained 91 Green Quality Crimson Iron Rings and 14 Blue Quality Crimson Iron Hearts.

Having previously fused a Crimson Iron Heart+1, and now with the newly obtained Crimson Iron Hearts, he quickly calculated, and found he could assemble a Crimson Iron Heart+4.

According to Zhang Yanhang’s previous estimation, a Crimson Iron Heart would advance to Purple Quality when upgraded to +3, not to mention now that it could be fused to +4. If he could fuse it to +4, then upgrading to Purple Quality would definitely be secure.

Thus, to see the Purple Quality Crimson Iron Heart as soon as possible, Zhang Yanhang immediately took off the original Crimson Iron Heart+1 from his neck.

Zhang Yanhang swiftly initiated Alchemy, and with the input of Energy Values, the fourteen necklaces inside the Alchemy Array were quickly fusing and intermingling.

After restoring the Alchemy to its complete state, although the fusion ceiling had not increased, the number Zhang Yanhang could melt simultaneously had increased. Previously, he reckoned that fusion of about twelve necklaces at once was the limit.

But now, Zhang Yanhang felt even melding fourteen necklaces felt quite easy, and he even thought he could simultaneously fuse twenty to thirty necklaces without any issue. Still, regrettably, Zhang Yanhang really wanted to do so, but there were not enough necklaces available for him to fuse.

Looking at the freshly produced seven Crimson Iron Heart+1 inside the Alchemy Array, Zhang Yanhang immediately threw the previous Crimson Iron Heart+1 into the Alchemy Array.

Under the impetus of Energy Values, the Crimson Iron Heart+1, which hadn’t been with him for too long, rapidly melted into a pool of liquid and merged with the other Crimson Iron Hearts+1.

After wasting a little bit of time, in front of Zhang Yanhang appeared a brand new Crimson Iron Heart+4.

After crafting the Crimson Iron Heart+4, Zhang Yanhang immediately started to check its Attribute list.

[Introduction: "My Crimson Iron Equipment, renowned for its quality and cost-efficiency, gains fame through word-of-mouth among the buyers. One day, a Brave Apprentice just starting out found me, asking for the best sword in the village. He said he didn’t have the money at the moment, but he promised to return it a hundredfold once he made a name for himself.

...

However, if the Hero is willing to lick a few more Crimson iron balls, I might consider the proposition of loaning him a more advanced Crimson Iron Sword."—From a Nameless Blacksmith who just wants to quietly earn money.]
