The Ultimate Evolution

[ Weapon: +10 Planetary-Grade High-Energy Mechanical Power Glove (Left) (Special Enchantment Effect +6) ]

[ Status: Hungry (The liquid metal life-form is hungry. Please feed it the required equipment as soon as possible. Otherwise, its growth will be adversely affected. In extreme cases, it may even swallow the equipment it is attached to.) ]

( Unchanged descriptions are omitted. )

[ Base Attack Power: 30~60 ]

[ +10 strengthening increases the base attack power by: 300~600 ]

[ +4 Weapon Bonus: Increases the trigger chances of the abilities on the weapon (‘Uppercut’, ‘Shoulder-Throw’) by 10% (solidified) ]

[ +7 Weapon Bonus (Temporary, will disappear once the liquid metal life-form is removed): ‘One Inch Punch’! ]

[ This ability is derived from ‘Uppercut’ and is a very powerful martial art. The user will instantaneously gather the strength of the whole body in a single lightning-quick punch and cause heavy damage to the enemy! ]

[ One Inch Punch’s Damage Calculation: 200 fixed damage + (attack power x 2) true damage ]

[ The cooldown time of ‘One Inch Punch’ is 60 seconds. Because ‘One Inch Punch’ put immense strain on the user’s body, the user will sustain 150 damage every time ‘One Inch Punch’ is performed. ]

[ +10 Weapon Bonus (Temporary, will disappear once the liquid metal life-form is removed): ‘Ultimate Impact’! ]

[ Allows ‘One Inch Punch’ to be launched after gathering power, forming the terrifying ‘Ultimate Impact’! The charging time can be as long as five seconds. ]

[ Ultimate Impact Damage Calculation: (200~400) fixed damage + attack power x (2~4) true damage ]

[ When the charging time reaches five seconds, all damage will become true damage, and the damage calculation becomes: 400 + attack power x 4! ]

[ Warning: The user can launch ‘One Inch Punch’ any time during the charging process, and the attack power will be calculated according to the charging time. However, if the user is attacked during the charging process, they will suffer a backlash and will be injured. The amount of damage done by the backlash will be equivalent to the theoretical damage of ‘One Inch Punch’ at that moment. ]

[ Therefore, if you are not absolutely confident, please do not blindly attack with ‘Ultimate Impact’. Otherwise, the enemy could easily seize the opportunity of the five-second charging time to reverse the situation. ]

[ Details: It appears that a once powerful man who mastered the ancient Chinese Wushu Wing Chun has also fallen to the point of becoming an unlucky interstellar miner. His residual aura is engraved on parts of the gloves. ]

Sheyan gave Rogenvader a fierce punch in the face.

Sheyan vented all his frustrations in this punch!

The pain in his waist tormented him, provoking a great outburst of power in this punch!

It was a punch launched with 103 points of Strength, with a theoretical attack power of over 500 points!

Berserkers were not good at defence to begin with, and Rogenvader, like his comrades, had sustained various injuries after the previous fight with Party Ace.

Sheyan smashed his fist into Rogenvader’s face so hard that Rogenvader’s nose immediately burst like a rotten tomato that was crushed under a car tire! Mixes of red, black and white sprayed all over his face. The punch even smothered Rogenvader’s scream inside his throat.

At the same time, Lamb and Bosch in the triangular formation had already made numerous vicious cuts on Sheyan’s back and side with their sharp daggers and shortswords, but although their attacks never missed, they could clearly feel that their explosive strike rate had been suppressed. What’s more, whenever they struck the enemy, the impact would numb their wrists, as if they were hacking at an iron slab!

Bosch was really quite obstinate. Once he had started attacking, his eyes would see red and he would stick to the enemy like a mad dog, not stopping until the enemy was dead.

On the other hand, Lamb was someone who was really cautious. He would think of an escape route first before doing anything. So, after attacking for a while, he stole a glance at the battle log but found that it had continuously failed to record the battle events. Fortunately, his Perceptive Sense was not low, and he also had a bonus provided by his innate ability, so he gave up on attacking for the moment and concentrated on his probing ability instead.

When he found out the truth, he almost coughed up blood.

[ Your ordinary attack caused 206 points of theoretical damage to the enemy. The inter-contestant damage reduction lowered the damage by 40% to 124 points. The opponent’s defence reduced the damage to 48 points. For unknown reasons, the actual damage done to the enemy is….5 points. ]

[ Your ‘Backstab’ (explosive strike) caused 874 points of theoretical damage to the enemy. The inter-contestant damage reduction lowered the damage by 40% to 524 points. The opponent’s defence reduced the damage to 268 points. For unknown reasons, the actual damage done to the enemy is….68 points. ]

“What…What kind of monster is this guy!!!” Lamb’s fingers trembled, and so did his heart.

To be honest, the 40% inter-contestant damage reduction was within Lamb’s expectations.

He had also expected the guy to be formidable. Otherwise, the “Lord” wouldn’t have to go through the trouble to set such an elaborate trap. Therefore, it was understandable that this guy named Seaman had MT-level defence.

But… But!!!

What the hell is “for unknown reasons”?!?!

Rogenvader had already eaten three of Sheyan’s punches.

The reason berserkers could run ‘berserk’ was because they had a lot of HP. Otherwise, they would die before they could go ‘berserk’.

Pain was a source of power for berserkers. Rogenvader, whose nose was crushed, screamed in pain and slammed his dark gold giant club on top of Sheyan.

Sheyan actually lowered his head and continued to endure the attack!

Sheyan’s eyes were already bloodshot. After eating the blow, he took a sudden step forward, stomping his right foot on the ground hard like a hammer. The ice-blue snow and dust that had settled on the ground were stirred up again, dancing all over the air!

These snows and dust should contain Mogensha’s ashes too….

“Watch carefully, Mogensha…. Watch how I’ll avenge you. All the people here are going to die!!!” Sheyan’s muscles all over his body tightened up. His pupils became needle-thin in an instant, like the eyes of the Zerglings that were filled with simple indifference and killer instinct. His body glowed with a pale blue light, a sign that ‘Zergling Rush’ had been triggered!

Sheyan landed a heavy punch on Rogenvader’s abdomen. Anyone who heard the dull sound it made would feel their stomach tighten uncontrollably.

Rogenvader’s eyes bulged out like bells. Blood trickled down his gums. He roared and hit back with a knee, but Sheyan’s attack was incredibly fast. A heavy left punch came from the top and smashed onto his knee! His kneecap was shattered into fragments!

Rogenvader howled in agony. He knew that the situation was bad. His figure suddenly blurred and he teleported three meters away, taking cover behind a car. This ability of his had a very short cooldown time of 10 seconds and could be used regardless of the terrain. It was very useful in a fight, whether to go in for the kill or to escape.

Sheyan kicked the car, making it roll over. Sheyan then launched a straight punch at the car. The car collided into Rogenvader and they were both sent flying for more than ten meters.

Before Rogenvader could land, Sheyan had already activated ‘Hornrage’ to close in on him at an amazing speed! When Rogenvader crawled out of the wrecked car painfully, Sheyan was already there waiting for him!

Sheyan rotated his body and hit the enemy with a straight right punch. The moment his fist connected with the enemy, time seemed to have stopped momentarily. It felt like the enemy was drawn to his fist!

Only when the punch had penetrated past the enemy’s bones into his innards did the power contained in the fist completely burst out!

One-

Inch-

Punch!

The punch blew away the massive Rogenvader, who weighed nearly 110 kilograms, sending him crashing into a wall behind him. Cobweb-like cracks started appearing on the wall.

Rogenvader’s eyes protruded out; he was already in a state of near death. When his body was about to slide down along the wall, something suddenly exploded inside him, as if a time bomb had gone off. He erupted into pieces of flesh and drops of blood!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The first outburst was the 200 points of fixed damage of ‘One Inch Punch’, while the second outburst was the 206 points of true damage acting inside Rogenvader’s body, derived from Sheyan’s 103 points of Strength.

A series of notifications scrolled past Sheyan’s retina:

[ You have killed an Awakener (number unknown). You received 6 achievement points. ]

[ You are participating in the battle in a party. Please distribute the achievement points among yourselves. ]

[ The limit of achievement points you can obtain through killing in this world is 30 points. If you exceed the limit, the extra achievement points will become invalid and cannot be returned. Please distribute the achievement points carefully. ]

[ The killing reward is being randomly selected. The killing reward will be randomly selected from the equipment owned by the contestant you killed, and will be randomly assigned to someone in your party. ]

[ Restoring and calculating the data of the killed contestant. The process may take some time. Please wait patiently. ]

Sheyan’s mouth twitched a little, but no one could tell whether he was smirking or sneering. At the same time, he was being simultaneously bombarded by three long range Growth Hunters hidden in the distance, his figure swallowed by smoke and fire. But when the smoke and fire dispersed, he was still rooted to the same spot, as steady as a boulder. He made a throat-cutting gesture towards the distance.

“No rush. It’ll be your turn soon.”

The wild air about Sheyan reached its peak intensity, submerging everyone on the battlefield in it!
