Chapter 321: Chapter 320 I Have a Bold Idea

"Because my Constitution Attribute had already been enhanced to the Second Tier Limit, my Basic Life Value couldn’t gain an increase temporarily, so even after gaining a 10% Life Value Limit bonus this time, I still only increased my Life Value Limit by 147 points and my Shield Value Limit by 221 points..."

Zhang Yanhang’s current Life Value Limit primarily consists of three parts: the first part is the 1,000 Life Points brought by the increase of the Constitution Attribute to fifty points, the second part comes from an additional 474 Life Points provided by the Yellow Medicine Grass, and the last part is the Life Value Limit bonus effect of the Indestructible Golden Body.

The first two parts combined amount to a total Life Value Limit of 1,474 points, which hadn’t changed for quite some time, and that’s why the recent increases in both Life Value Limit and Shield Value Limit have been roughly the same.

Compared to the fixed Life Value Limit increase provided by the Yellow Medicine Grass, Zhang Yanhang still preferred percentage-based Life Value bonuses like the Indestructible Golden Body because it meant that any future increases in Life Value Limit would become a 1.5 times increase under the bonus of the Indestructible Golden Body.

So, just based on that point alone, there was no doubt that the percentage bonus of the Indestructible Golden Body was more effective for him; after all, the Yellow Medicine Grass’s 474 Life Value Limit might look like a lot now, but it would inevitably become diluted with subsequent Rank Promotions, but a percentage bonus would always add a fixed ratio.

After reviewing his Life Value Limit, Zhang Yanhang refocused his attention on the Skill Effect of the Indestructible Golden Body.

Having upgraded the Indestructible Golden Body to LV.MAX, he had gained a new Additional Attribute, which allowed the Golden Body Effect, originally spread across his entire body, to be concentrated in one location to increase both the Defence Bonus and Attack Power Bonus of the Golden Body Effect.

"Does this mean that if I encounter a powerful enemy in the future, I could rely on concentrating the Golden Body Effect to more specifically defend against the enemy’s attacks?

For instance, when facing an attack that’s impossible to dodge, I could use Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil to predict the enemy’s attack point in advance and swiftly move the area reinforced by the Golden Body Effect. It seems like I’ve stumbled upon a surprisingly reliable method of use.

Or let’s say, if I encounter an enemy with exceptionally strong defense but not so high Attack Power, then I could choose to concentrate all the support of the Golden Body Effect on my fists, thereby acquiring more Attack Power Bonus to break through the enemy."

Aside from these two methods of use, Zhang Yanhang felt that the Additional Attributes from LV.6 and LV.MAX could possibly produce a synergistic effect.

He had previously contemplated increasing the Attack Power and Armor Penetration of cannon bullets by reinforcing them with the Golden Body Effect, but now, Zhang Yanhang suddenly had an even bolder idea.

What effect would it have if he concentrated all the Golden Body Effect, which could cover his entire body, onto a cannon bullet?

Since the upgrade to LV.MAX of the Indestructible Golden Body already entailed a 50% Attack Power Bonus, then it should be normal to be able to increase the Attack Power Bonus to 75% or even 100% upon concentration, right?

After all, if there wasn’t even this level of increase, then focusing the Golden Body’s reinforcement would become a rather useless action, and he believed that the Indestructible Golden Body, as a Professional skill of the Heavenly Destiny Master, certainly wouldn’t disappoint him in this regard.

Therefore, a cannon bullet with a 100% Attack Power Bonus and a 500% Defence Bonus would certainly be astonishingly powerful.

Though he had indeed used pistols and rifles for a while in the beginning, Zhang Yanhang had always felt that only machine guns were the true weapon of a real man.

He even thought about dual-wielding machine guns if it hadn’t been for there being only one Six Roots Pure Soul Passage Spear because if holding a machine gun was the romance of a man, then wielding two machine guns would be double that romance.

Of course, with his current single-handed strength of twelve and a half tons, not to mention handling machine guns, he could even confidently fire anti-aircraft guns against their recoil.

Just that anti-aircraft guns were not quite suitable for single-person use in terms of size and were mostly fixed on the ground, used as a type of war vehicle.

These could accommodate an entire combat team, including several gunners and loaders, and each aspect of direction, distance, and height would require a separate gunner for observation, with aiming and firing likewise needing individual gunners, so normally, it would take at least five people to operate an anti-aircraft gun normally.

So even though he now had the strength to operate an anti-aircraft gun, considering size and operational aspects, Zhang Yanhang still felt that machine guns or cannon guns like the Six Roots Pure Soul Gun, which could be operated by a single person, were more suitable for him.

"The Treasure box is already opened, and the skills have been upgraded; what should I do next?" Zhang Yanhang thought carefully; he still needed to address the modification plan for Crimson Iron Teeth and the issue of Divination Tarot Cards, but before that, he first opened his data panel to take a look.
