“The minimum limit for Lucky Crossbow is finally down to 1, meaning the net effect of its next attack will always result in damage enhancement. With good luck, it can directly inflict 50 times the damage.”
Old Nine’s base damage is now 420,000. Fifty times that base damage alone can directly trigger a 21 million damage, not to mention a skill outbreak.
Its Fourth-turn skill [Death Arrow] brings a one percent chance of triggering the Excellent effect of [Instant Death].
The upper limit is 25 times the sum of strength, agility, and attack. Dean McKenzie calculated for it, and the base damage alone is around 12 million.
If we’re lucky and directly trigger 50 times the damage, we can directly deliver an output of six hundred million.
What does that mean?
I guess no one could resist within Six-turn, Old Four’s Guardian Shield can barely resist!
If utilized properly, it could absolutely become the strongest output on Dean McKenzie’s side.
This is based on the condition that Death Arrow hasn’t been enhanced yet. Once this skill is fully enhanced, Old Nine’s output will definitely transcend to another level.
However, Dean McKenzie is not in a rush to enhance Old Nine’s skill.
“There’s no suitable trait available right now, so we’re going to put Death Arrow’s enhancement on hold for now. Let Old Nine first brush up his skill proficiency. Otherwise, if we enhance the skill later, it will become doubly difficult to increase skill proficiency!”
After enhancing skills for so long, Dean McKenzie has figured out a pattern.
If a skill hasn’t been enhanced yet, it’s easy to raise the skill proficiency level.
But the benefits of raising the level aren’t significant.
If a skill is enhanced, it’s harder to raise the skill level, but the benefits will be much greater than without the enhancement.
How to choose specifically still depends on the situation.
After repeated experiments, Dean McKenzie felt that upgrading the skill to level 3 and then enhancing it would be more appropriate.
This offers two opportunities for enhancement, and if you upgrade later, the benefits won’t be too small.
Anyway, Dean McKenzie doesn’t have any strong opponents he needs to face right now, so he can let Old Nine upgrade [Death Arrow] to level 3 first.
“According to what Carney told me, it will be at least 10 days and at most half a month before the first batch of bodies arrives.
In this time, I will put all my effort into refreshing skill proficiency.
Once the bodies arrive, summon the 33 Bone Dragons, start enhancing Old Nine’s skill, enhance the power to the current peak, and then open the [Goblin Uprising] instance!”
Dean McKenzie still remembers how the last instance came about.
From the moment it came out last time, Dean McKenzie swore to avenge his defeat.
But Raymond’s strength last time made Dean McKenzie very cautious. This time, he’s fully prepared before going into the instance.
This is all to make sure that he can absolutely secure the victory this time.
“He must die, I say!”
Then, from Dean McKenzie to every skeleton under his command, all began a period of secluded cultivation and began to brush up their skill proficiency like crazy.
Dean McKenzie mainly brushed up on [Skeleton Domination], [Bone Spear], [Meditation], and [Flying Skill].
Doggy Two brushed the skills [Bone Eruption], [Heavy Destruction], [Bone King], and [Steel Bones].
Old Eight brushed [Strong Stealth], [Forced Decapitation], [Dagger Poisoning], and [Poison Strengthening].
The remaining Old Four, Old Seven, and Old Nine simply brushed up on their reinforced skills.
Old Six, the head Skeleton Mage in Dean McKenzie’s army, focused entirely on strengthening [Bone Tomb].
Because of the deal with the Giant Serpent Tribe, Dean McKenzie stopped throwing his wealth around.
In terms of living, things were great at the small inn. Dean McKenzie was able to focus fully on his secluded cultivation.
In the blink of an eye, 10 days passed.
Dean McKenzie had some gains during this time.
His [Bone Spear] increased to level 10, becoming Dean McKenzie’s third level 10 skill, and also the only one that reached level 10 without being enhanced.
Moreover, both [Flight Skill] and [Meditation] had increased by 1 level. Both abilities saw definite enhancements. Level 2 Flight Skill allowed Dean McKenzie to fly at a height of 600 meters, with a speed reaching 55% of his Spiritual Power.
Meditation reached level 8, with a maximum recovery rate of 61664 per minute.
While 61,000 seems like a large recovery rate, in contrast to Dean McKenzie’s 5.2 million mana, it seems somewhat inadequate.
If he lets it flow naturally, it would take 85 minutes to fully recover.
But it’s already pretty good.
Dean McKenzie currently doesn’t have an urgent need for mana, so he doesn’t plan on continuing to enhance this skill for now.
Compared to those three skills, the leveling up of Skeleton Domination was somewhat slower. It was level 3 ten days ago and still is. But that’s normal, considering Dean McKenzie’s [Skeleton Domination] has Extraordinary Traits, right?
Over the course of 10 days, in addition to Dean McKenzie, the skills of other skeletons have also improved to varying degrees.
Old Two’s [Bone King] has increased to level 7, and [Heavy Destruction] has increased to level 3!
Old Six’s [Dagger Poisoning] and [Poison Strengthening] have both increased to level 6!
Old Seven’s [Fearless Charge] has increased to level 3, and Old Nine’s [Death Arrow] has increased to level 2.
But the key point is that Old Four’s [Guardian Shield] has increased to level 2.
Skill: Guardian Shield (Fourth-turn) (1 Enhancement)
Level: Level 2 (121/10 million points)
Cost: 300,000 Spirit Power
Effect: After activation, it can open the Guardian Shield, link two units, and transfer the damage taken by the other party to itself.
Passive increase of 23 times their own physique plus a fixed defense of 5..6 million, reduce 33% damage
