Chapter 275: Chapter 274 All-Purpose Warrior

"If the scope of coverage could be significantly reduced, the physical strength consumption of the Death Wave Skill could also be greatly lowered, then perhaps in the future, the Death Wave Skill could be used hundreds of times without worrying about exhausting the Physical Strength, turning it into a conventional combat method just like machine guns and fists."

"If that were the case, then Zhang Yanhang’s hunting efficiency would likely see another significant improvement. However, this situation is only the ideal scenario."

"Although it’s indeed stated in the Additional Attributes that Physical Strength consumption would be reduced, the specific extent of this reduction wasn’t mentioned. Therefore, concerning this matter, I still need to conduct individual tests later to find out."

"After reviewing the Additional Attributes, Zhang Yanhang then proceeded to check the Skill Effect following the upgrade of the Death Wave Skill, ’It was worth spending over twenty thousand Soul Points to increase the Death Wave Skill by four levels. The gains brought about by this upgrade are truly substantial."

"The Fixed Damage has directly increased by 255 points from the original 345 points, now elevated to 600 points. With this, the Death Wave Skill can even instantly kill some Second-tier Monsters with lower Constitution Attributes."

"Previously, Zhang Yanhang’s 345 points of Fixed Damage could only instantly kill some First Tier Monsters with Constitution Attributes of 23 points or less. But now, calculating according to the formula where each point of the Second Tier’s Constitution Attribute provides twenty Life Value Limit points, he can instantly kill all Second-tier Monsters with Constitution Attributes of 30 points or below."

"Moreover, although the Death Wave Skill has now been upgraded to LV.MAX, I can still enhance its Fixed Damage Limit by improving my Intelligence Attribute and Charm Attribute."

"According to the current conversion rate of five points, the Intelligence Attribute and the Charm Attribute can each provide me with two hundred fifty points of Fixed Damage. Adding on the original two hundred fifty points, that makes a total of seven hundred fifty points of Fixed Damage."

"Compared to now, that’s an additional increase of one hundred fifty points. If I can max out this part of the Fixed Damage, then I can instantly kill all monsters with Constitution Attributes of 37 points and below."

"I remember when Tracker was promoted to Second Tier Four Stars, it only had a Constitution Attribute of 40 points. Wouldn’t this mean that if I could max out the Fixed Damage bonus of the Death Wave, I could even instantly kill Second Tier Three Stars monsters?"

"Speaking of Tracker, Zhang Yanhang suddenly remembered something. Initially, Tracker seemed to only have a Life Value Limit of six hundred points in its first form. If I had the Death Wave Skill back then, I probably could have instantly killed Tracker at first encounter."

"Moreover, because it would be directly depleted of its Life Value, Tracker wouldn’t even make it to the Second Tier Stage before dying on the spot; after all, it can regenerate quickly when severely wounded and on the brink of death but can’t revive from death."

"Having reached 750 points of Fixed Damage just by upgrading to LV.MAX, if I could promote this skill further, I’m afraid I could directly kill Third Tier Monsters."

"However, unfortunately, the promotion would require 51,200 Soul Points and also an addition of some Ash Source. Ash Source is easy to speak of, as I still have some left, but gathering fifty thousand Soul Points is too challenging."

"More importantly, if I could gather fifty thousand Soul Points for promoting a skill, I would definitely prioritize Technique Immunity first. After all, staying alive is essential for output; survival skills are definitely a priority."

"Zhang Yanhang aims to be an All-Purpose Warrior, not a fragile assassin, so maxing out the Energy Shield is really a high priority. The reason he could defeat Tracker was largely not just due to using rocket launchers but because Tracker couldn’t break his Energy Shield."

"Only when the enemy can’t break the Energy Shield can Zhang Yanhang freely deal damage."

"Otherwise, with his Life Value during the First Tier Period, if he had to withstand damage physically, it’s likely the Second Tier Four Stars Tracker could’ve smashed him into a pulp with just a few Normal Attacks, as Second Tier completely overwhelms First Tier in terms of Attribute Values."

"Moreover, after upgrading the Death Wave Skill to LV.MAX, in addition to the considerable increase in Fixed Damage, its coverage area also expanded quite rapidly. Although it appears that it only increased from three hundred meters to five hundred meters, only an increase of two hundred meters, the area covered has multiplied..."

"Originally, Zhang Yanhang could cover an area of 0.07 square kilometers with one deployment of the Death Wave Skill when the coverage was only three hundred meters. But now, with a five hundred meters range, the area covered has abruptly increased to 0.2 square kilometers."

"That means if Zhang Yanhang picks his positions well, he only needs to release the Death Wave Skill five times to clear an area of one square kilometer."

"Now, I truly feel like I possess the strength of a Village-level Unit. Quickly speaking, it would only take me about a minute or two to completely destroy a Village-level Unit, considering a regular Village-level Unit has a population of just a few thousand people at most? Anymore, and it would be considered a Town Level Unit."

"Zhang Yanhang even applied the population density of Qin Island City South District to this calculation. With an average population density of twenty thousand in the South District, when he first acquired the Death Wave Skill, he could only cover an area of 0.7 square kilometers per minute, which required him to continuously deploy the Death Wave Skill fourteen times, yet he could only wipe out fourteen thousand people."

"However, now, with his current Movement Speed, he can cover an area of 1.6 square kilometers in one minute by just releasing the Death Wave Skill eight times at the maximum distance of five hundred meters, essentially ensuring he can wipe out thirty-two thousand people per minute, significantly speeding up his overall efficiency."

"By the way, if the current Zhang Yanhang were to continuously deploy the Death Wave Skill fourteen times again, it would cover an area of 2.8 square kilometers, wiping out fifty-six thousand people, which is four times that of before."

"Another thing worth mentioning is the area of the South District, the most economically developed area of Qin Island City, which also serves as the location for the city government and related departments. In terms of area, it is not very large."

"Although the whole of Qin Island City covers thousands of square kilometers, the core South District only spans thirty square kilometers, ranking last among the units under the jurisdiction of Qin Island City. Therefore, theoretically, Zhang Yanhang only needs to release the Death Wave Skill fourteen times to cover one-tenth of the South District area."
