Chapter 462: Chapter 461 The Hero of the Empire is Actually Me!

"The last time my Movement Speed saw an increase, if I recall correctly, was in the small Crimson Iron Ant Nest Dalagu where I exchanged achievements. Back then, two achievements combined gave me a 15% enhancement, and now with these Swift Leggings, my Movement Speed bonus can reach 20%."

"As for the specific Movement Speed, although it’s still impossible to break through ninety meters per second right now, with a few more improvements, it should still be possible to achieve."

Zhang Yanhang had just seen that the Score of the Swift Leggings and the Dragon Power Bracelet was both sixty points, which meant that the Swift Leggings could also be elevated to Purple Quality with just one fusion.

"Moreover, besides being able to reach Purple Quality with a single fusion, these Swift Leggings probably can also break through the limit after five upgrades to ascend to Dark Purple Quality. That is to say, I would need to gather the same number – 128 pairs of Swift Leggings.

However, the problem is that there are only two thousand four hundred Goblin Wolf Cavalry in the Goblin Plain, and this number might not be enough. If there’s a small deficit, it might have to rely on the prize pool from the Lucky Slot Machine to make up the shortfall.

Although the third prize pool of the Lucky Slot Machine has not been refreshed yet, based on previous patterns, it might be difficult for Second-tier Monsters to refresh, but there should certainly be no problem with First Tier Monsters like Goblin Wolf Cavalry."

Zhang Yanhang was quite optimistic about the fusion prospects of the Swift Leggings. As for the ultimate result of the fusion, that would have to wait until he actually began to perform the fusion."

"Speaking of which, the Goblin Spear Throwers had clearly mutated feet, yet the Drop treasure boxes yielded Dragon Power Bracelets for the hands.

And the Goblin Wolf Cavalry had mutated hands, but the Drop treasure boxes produced Swift Leggings for the legs. The types of items from these two treasure boxes seemed oddly reversed.

Fortunately, while the types might have been mixed up, the specific Additional Attributes of the Equipment were closely related to the monsters’ own abilities – the Attack Speed Bonus and Movement Speed enhancement."

Considering these abilities, Zhang Yanhang began looking forward to what Equipment might come from the Goblin Shaman treasure boxes. Since they were spellcasters, it would seem quite unfathomable if they didn’t drop anything related to spells.

Of course, even if it was something related to spells, if it turned out to be something like a large Magic Recovery Potion or similar, Zhang Yanhang was still very resistant to the idea. After all, he already had a sufficient supply of Medium Magic Recovery Potions and did not feel the need to pursue higher Quality at the moment."

"So, I choose ’100 Soul Points,’ ’100 Soul Points,’ ’100 Soul Points,’ ’Thin dragon vein (Mixed),’ ’Swift Leggings.’

After going through the five item slots in the Goblin Wolf Cavalry treasure box, Zhang Yanhang promptly made his selection. The Time Pause instantaneously disappeared, and at the same time, he immediately picked up another Drop treasure box.

Zhang Yanhang now had to focus on opening treasure boxes as quickly as possible, as he still had five hundred and eighty-one boxes to go through. Even if it took only one second per box, it would still take ten minutes to open them all, and it certainly wouldn’t be just one second per box.

In actuality, since there’s a fixed amount of time consumed during the opening of each treasure box, he would need to set aside at least half an hour for this task.

Although the whole process is somewhat mechanical and slightly painful, each opened treasure box brings its own profit. Therefore, Zhang Yanhang is generally quite happy with the task, embodying the saying ’pain and pleasure intermingled.’

...

After spending a solid half-hour opening the treasure boxes, Zhang Yanhang finally finished with them all, and he felt somewhat numb. After all, he had just made nearly six hundred highly uniform decisions in a short amount of time.

No matter how joyous the task, after six hundred repetitions, it can become torturous, causing a bit of numbness. But luckily, it wasn’t a big deal. After finishing with the treasure boxes, Zhang Yanhang quickly recovered, especially since the next phase was organizing his gains, which he looked forward to the most.

Zhang Yanhang started by counting the Artifacts he had opened. In terms of Artifacts, he had a total of 1,482 bottles of Medium Magic Recovery Potion. Including the 363 bottles left in his Waist Bag from before, he now had 1,845 bottles of Medium Magic Recovery Potion in his possession.

1,845 bottles of Medium Magic Recovery Potion was undeniably a tremendous amount, which could almost fully restore his Energy Value limit of 1,925 points ninety-six times.

With such a massive reserve of Energy, if Zhang Yanhang encountered an enemy he couldn’t defeat, unleashing a wave of Thermo-baric Bombs would be no problem at all.

After all, each Thermo-baric Bomb only required 75 points of Energy Value, and he now had enough Medium Magic Recovery Potions to create 2,460 standard Thermo-baric Bombs.

He could even make 308 enhanced Thermo-baric Bombs +3, enough to ravage the Capital of South Korea, Han City, back and forth three times.

Just a few days apart, Zhang Yanhang found himself capable of fulfilling a small dream he once dared not even imagine. It truly felt dreamlike.

"Moreover, the key point is that I now have the Arbitrary Gate spell for high-speed direct Teleportation. Combining the two, I might become a terror myself... Oh, wait, with the Conquest Order, I could turn into the hero of the Empire..."

Zhang Yanhang realized that once he entered Seoul City, he could simply find a place underground to lie low and start deploying weapons of mass destruction via the Arbitrary Gate, wrecking Han City without moving an inch.

Of course, this was under the assumption that there weren’t any extraordinarily powerful Foreknowledge ability users among South Korea’s Awakeners; otherwise, my plan could have a high chance of failure if it was predicted in advance.

"Alas, the Teleportation distance of the Arbitrary Gate is still too short. If I could obtain a higher-level Teleportation Gate spell in the future, it would even be possible to rain Thermo-baric Bombs from the comfort of home, making the destruction of an enemy nation’s Capital as easy as a casual outing."

The thought made Zhang Yanhang unexpectedly start looking forward to the next round of Conquest Orders.
