With Jack Clark’s current strength, he can even slay Third Layer Heaven believers, and rely on more than a hundred agility points to compete with Third Layer Heaven renegade cultivators.
Therefore, there is no urgent need for a major increase in combat power. Of course, these attribute points can’t strengthen much either.
On the other hand, he has always been a bit uneasy about defense.
He is most afraid of being targeted by the rebels’ sniper rifles, especially anti-equipment weapons equipped with armor-piercing bullets that can shoot several times faster than the speed of sound and can penetrate steel plates 20mm thick.
If he is locked onto by his enemies during battle, even if he senses the danger in advance, he may not be able to react in time.
The two battles he faced were not too bad; the enemies used rocket attacks with obvious weapons. With their speed, they didn’t give the enemy a chance to fire a second shot.
But what about next time? After all, they, these freshmen, are easily targeted at first.
Thinking of this, Jack Clark placed his hand on the battle armor and said in his mind, “Consume 2 attribute points and strengthen the battle armor.”
As Jack Clark’s voice fell, the remaining attribute points on the attribute page became 6, and at the same time, an Invisible Power enveloped the black-red armor.
In silence, the armor seemed slightly darker.
The armor didn’t seem to have changed much, but when Jack Clark picked it up, he found that it had become more ‘heavy’, giving him a sense of solidity.
Boom! Jack Clark tapped the armor with his fingers and made a dull sound.
Just strengthening it by 2 points didn’t make much of a difference. Jack Clark pondered for a moment, and continued the voice in his mind: “Consume all attribute points, strengthen the battle armor.”
Buzz!
After strengthening the armor by six attribute points at once, the air around the armor emitted a faint hum, and a faint gleam flashed across it.
After this strengthening, the surface of the armor seemed slightly dull, giving people a profound feeling. In addition, the overall structure of the armor seemed to have undergone subtle changes.
Fortunately, there was not much change in appearance, just a faint sense of oppression. This change seemed normal after being tempered by the battles and bloodshed of the past few days.
As Jack Clark was looking at the strengthened armor, two rows of transparent text appeared in front of him.
“Made of ordinary alloy and soft steel wire, the current sturdy attribute of this full body armor is +8, which is a normal Transcendent item with decent defense.”
“The surface alloy can withstand ordinary sniper bullets, the inner steel wire can stop armor-piercing bullets, and the helmet can withstand sniper armor-piercing bullet attacks.”
“Note: Due to material limitations, the maximum sturdiness attribute can be strengthened by io points. To further improve the quality of the item, it can be infused with advanced materials.”
“It unexpectedly became a Transcendent item directly.” Jack Clark showed a satisfied expression on his face.
The effect after strengthening did not disappoint him. The body armor can now withstand sniper bullets, making him no longer worry about being targeted with sniper rifles.
Moreover, this kind of strengthening is somewhat similar to enchanting, without making significant changes to the overall appearance.
At this moment, Jack Clark glanced at the straight blade placed on the table and thoughtfully said, “The strengthening effect of the defense is so good, what about the blade?”
The F Grade straight blade is known for its sturdiness, and its sharpness is not much different from ordinary steel blades.
If the attribute points were used to strengthen it to the point of cutting iron like mud, a careless Third Layer Heaven cultivator might be cut in half together with their weapon.
But after thinking about it for a moment, Jack Clark shook his head and put the thought behind him.
It’s still too early to consider these things. He should first increase his cultivation to the Third Layer Heaven, and by then, with the continuous enhancement of his Constitution provided by the Avatar, he would be among the strongest in the Third Layer Heaven.
Next, Jack Clark sat cross-legged and began to practice Dragon Elephant Power…
Huh?
After just performing two rotations of the Cultivation Methods, Jack Clark exclaimed in surprise, because he found that the cultivation effect here was much worse, and the concentration of Transcendent energy between the Heaven and Earth was too low.
If the concentration of Transcendent energy in Mist River City was io, it might only be 1 here.
Jack Clark slowly opened his eyes, frowning, “Is this the reason for the poor cultivation environment that Mr. Welan mentioned?”
But the question is, why is the concentration of Transcendent energy so low here on the same planet, while the concentration is so high in Eastern Summer?!ack Clark was somewhat puzzled for a moment.
“That’s right.” Jack suddenly thought of something, took out his mobile phone and opened the Trial Class Group. Sure enough, he found that some classmates were discussing this issue as well.
At the same time, the official solution had already been prepared.
Lori Parma mentioned before they set off that he had issued a list of senior resources with unlocked permissions, which included an energy crystal that could only be exchanged at the Fourth Layer Heaven.
Unlike Life Crystals from Mutated Beasts that can strengthen the constitution, Energy Crystals are pure energy aggregates that come from special mineral veins.
They contain pure energy that can be absorbed by cultivators to accelerate cultivation or quickly recover True Strength, and have no other effects.
However, due to its scarcity, this type of crystal is a strategic resource and can only be exchanged by those who are officially recognized and have reached the Fourth Layer Heaven.
Moreover, the officials were quite generous this time, as the energy crystals, which originally cost fifteen Contribution Points, could be exchanged for just five points, equivalent to a 30% discount.
Besides, considering that these freshmen have not yet earned enough Contribution Points, they could even buy on credit.
However, each person could only exchange for two crystals a month, and any excess would be normal price. Under normal circumstances, a Second Layer Heaven cultivator wouldn’t use up the energy of a single crystal in a month.
Having read the information about the energy crystals, Jack flipped through the list again and even saw Giant Beast Essence and Blood, but the contribution points required for the exchange were too high.
Moreover, for him, no cultivation resources could compare to the attribute points converted from Life Crystals.
About half an hour later, Jack put down his phone and planned to go to the Logistics Department for an energy crystal on credit after dinner.
Seeing that it was still early, Jack sank his consciousness and arrived at the Heavy Armored Beast’s location.
At the bottom of the river where it flows into the sea, a black, ferocious Unique Beast slowly lifted its head from the muddy sand, using its limbs to stir up the rolling mud.
As a month passed, the Heavy Armored Beast’s body became increasingly ferocious and thick, with stout and sharp limbs, appearing like a heavily armored lizard or crocodile from afar.
Also, as it continued to slaughter, an aura of violence and tyranny gradually enveloped its body, scaring away many small fish and shrimp that approached it.
For instance, now, as the Heavy Armored Beast passed by, two meters long “small fishes” were suddenly frightened, instantly swimming out more than ten meters away with a flick of their tails.
Fortunately, the Heavy Armored Beast disdained eating these common fish, and with a cold glance, continued searching for those mutated ferocious fish.
In the evening, a sweaty Justin Welan opened the door to his room and saw Jack sitting in front of the window. Thinking he was cultivating, he shouted, “Jack, let’s go eat.”
“Is it time to eat already?” Jack slowly opened his eyes.
The two went to the third-floor restaurant one after another, and Jack found that his classmates were also covered in sweat, as if they had gone through a fierce battle.
After getting their food, Jack sat down with his tray and asked curiously, “What were you guys practicing this afternoon? You all look like you’ve been fighting for three days and nights.”
“The concentration of Extraordinary Energy here is too low, and it’s too slow to improve by meditating.”
Justin Welan ate big mouthfuls, his voice muffled, “So we spent the afternoon competing against each other, increasing our combat experience. We fought all afternoon.”
It seemed that everyone was the same.
Justin suddenly said, “By the way, Jack, you’ve seen the resource list on the trial group chat, right? Like energy crystals that can speed up our cultivation.”
“I’ve seen it,” Jack said as he took a bite of ordinary Mutated Beast Meat.
Justin nodded, “I’ve seen it, that’s good. But I don’t recommend you exchange for it.”
“Why?” Jack paused his hand.
Justin mysteriously whispered, “Just trust me. Eat up, and I’ll show you something good when we get back.”
“What’s the good thing?”
“You’ll know soon, don’t worry, brother, I won’t cheat you.”
“Alright then. “
