– Type One (Silver)
The Skeleton Army was limited in number, and the damage they could inflict was hardly praiseworthy; they could only serve as cannon fodder to tie down the enemy.
Now he profoundly understood the disadvantages of lacking high-end combat power; it was a problem that he needed to quickly address.
With only the Hell Demon Puppet as a high-end combat force, it was far from enough, especially since he didn’t dare to send Lao Tie out to fight recklessly After all, the Necromancer was still a Mage and couldn’t escape the trait of being squishy.
His seemingly robust defense and health pool were merely the result of equipment and the basic attribute boosts from undergoing two hero transclassing.
In the end, he was only stronger than his peers within the same order; he might be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Third Order, but when facing the top powerhouses of Third Order, he might not be able to overwhelm them a hundred percent, to say nothing of those who had undergone the fourth profession change.
Damn it, Death class practitioners can summon numerous Undead creatures but when it comes to relatively high-level entities like Spectres, Vampires, Abominations, and Bone Dragons, I have no idea where to get them.” High school never taught this knowledge; he had to look to the university and he had gotten some unfavorable intel through the official auction house and some shady dealers, like Ge Erpang and his ilk.
It seemed the Great Xia Empire’s official institutions and military were deliberately restricting resources for Death class professionals, such as Skill Books, various blueprints for creating Undead creatures, and potions!
Zi Liyuan continued to cast spells mechanically while his mind wandered, and at this moment, a change finally occurred in the battle situation.
After clearing out hundreds of exam candidates, the originally orderly group finally collapsed and began to flee!
The breakdown of the candidate team’s formation led to the Skeleton Army starting to chase and kill them, plunging the scene into utter chaos.
The Assassins who saw things looking grim one by one entered Stealth in an attempt to muddy the waters and escape to the lower levels.
Unfortunately, Zi Liyuan had anticipated this, so during the fight, he took Shen Yurou and Lao Tie and squatted right at the only staircase leading up and down. With the Hell Demon Puppet, it was entirely capable of holding a position where one man could hold off ten thousand; moreover, there was the Gravity Field! ’
Any Assassin who tried to escape via the staircase using invisibility or Stealth was invariably affected by Lao Tie’s Gravity Field.
Plus, with Zi Liyuan completely ignoring invisibility effects, these Assassins were indeed sent off one by one, all slapped to death by Lao Tie’s heavy iron hand.
Not to mention the traps Shen Yurou casually laid at the stair entrance anyone hoping to escape through here could only be honestly kicked out of the martial examination instance.
Of course, there were also clever individuals who retreated to the windows, forcibly prying off the thick iron plates sealing them in hopes of escaping along the exterior wall of the building.
Unfortunately for them, the circling Vulture Skeletons had been waiting outside this layer of the building; if you dared to venture out, they’d let you experience the thrill of high-altitude diving without any protective measures.
While the enhanced attributes had turned all the candidates into something more than human, the rules within the instance were the same as in the real world; there were rules enforcing the laws of physics, such as those governing high falls.
You could rely on your immense physical strength in the real world of Blue Star, such that falling from the top of a ten-story building might only cause you a bit of pain, but you wouldn’t be killed.
But the rules within the instance were different: a high fall would immediately slash your health by 50% to 90%, and you could even suffer broken legs!
Unless you could fly, don’t even think about evading the suppression of the instance’s rules.
This was why, even though everyone was like a little superhuman, no one jumped between rooftops to move faster. This approach would even avoid countless monster hordes; the candidates didn’t want to avoid this – they simply couldn’t!
Zi Liyuan had the exam takers figured out from the start, having never intended to let them off.
As time passed, the resistance grew ever weaker, until it finally vanished completely.
Starting from the first floor of this building and exterminating all opposition, he managed to kick out more than five hundred exam takers from the martial trial instance, which brought him a substantial wave of points income.
The individual points might not be much, but their sheer number was overwhelming.
After scouring the battlefield and collecting the materials dropped by the exam takers in the martial trial instance, Zi Liyuan took Shen Yurou to a relatively clean small villa, released skeletons, and cleaned up the surroundings.
“Xiao Yurou, don’t worry about the points, take advantage of the time we have now and focus on figuring out the exoskeleton armor.”
The enhanced monsters in the second phase were equivalent to nothing for Zi Liyuan, but what he was actually worried about was the possibility of the heretical cultists causing a major problem after the third phase opened.
Mainly, he felt that some members of the four royal families seemed unreliable.
However, now within the martial trial instance, where monsters did not grant experience or drop loot, ways to quickly enhance one’s strength were pitifully few.
As for the various supplies that appeared in the martial trial instance, most were dominated by food and water, while the rest were a miscellaneous collection, mostly various material supplies.
The only method Zi Liyuan could think of that might significantly increase their combat strength at the moment seemed to be Shen Yurou’s research.
Before entering the martial trial instance, she had prepared various metallic materials, some mechanical parts, as well as adapted lines for producing small bombs and gunpowder bullets, which she packed into the spatial backpack. With so many resources stockpiled, creating a few thousand silver-quality bombs would be no problem if they were all used up.
This was also why, after finding Shen Yurou, he chose a villa nearby to start resting and slacking off.
He had received information anyway: only when the third phase began would any change occur, so he wasn’t in a hurry to continue farming for points.
He even removed all his equipment and let Shen Yurou take away half his blood, reaching the criteria for transferring points, and then casually gave her half of his own points.
For him, to gain a large amount of points, if need be, he could always go beg from the members of the four royal families.
Moreover, the number of talents daring to enter the central BOSS area wasn’t small – these were all people of fate. Upon meeting them later, wouldn’t he engage in a good chat and forge a great karma, convincing them to willingly contribute some points to him?
Luckily, Shen Yurou’s progress in analysis was quite impressive, especially after borrowing Zi Liyuan’s silver priest set, no longer having to worry about the recovery of spiritual energy.
The blueprint of [Goblin Lumbering Mecha – Model One] was fully analyzed disassembling it into dozens of different mechanical production blueprints. ’ Once Shen Yurou had thoroughly researched these blueprints and modified them to be suitable for human use, the task became simple.
In seven days, a modified blueprint for an exoskeleton armor for humans was freshly produced.
[Human Exoskeleton Sniper Armor – Model One (Silver):Physical Damage +2500, Fire Rate 20 rounds/minute, Effective Range 1500 meters, comes with 2 cham magazines, each with a capacity of 400 rounds, Physique Amplification +25%, Movement Speed Amplification +50%, Endurance Duration 12 hours Full Power Duration 1 hour, usable by all professionals LV40. (An external fullbody armor suited for the human race body type, powered by unstable energy batteries using goblin black technology, occupies the weapon equipment slot when used.)]
