Chapter 283

"Oh? Sha actually dropped so many gold coins?"

Li Yao raises an eyebrow,

feeling slightly surprised.

When he defeated Sha,

he could feel

that there were some extra things in his storage ring.

It turns out it was these extra nearly two hundred gold coins,

as well as a Critical Strike Gauntlet.

He doesn't need to worry about the gauntlet;

he has already given the Dark-Winged Black Dragon a 【Useless Large Rod】.

Combining the two results in a Jeweled Gauntlet,

which is exactly one of the god-tier equipment sets Li Yao envisioned.

Assassin Emblem, Jeweled Gauntlet,

and for the remaining piece,

he will choose a hat or Archangel's Staff.

A violent three-piece set!

It can perfectly utilize the critical strike chance

obtained from the Assassin bond!

When Li Yao equips the Dark-Winged Black Dragon with the Critical Strike Gauntlet,

the icon on the Dark-Winged Black Dragon

representing the Cloud Top series equipment

turns into a purple gauntlet.

【Jeweled Gauntlet (Unknown Prop)】

【Equipment Requirement: Can only be worn by chess pieces】

【Attribute 1: Spirit Attribute +30%; Critical Strike Chance +25%】

【Attribute 2: Critical Strike Damage increased by 25%】

Li Yao: "..."

He is speechless for a moment.

He had thought Cloud Top finished equipment would be strong,

but he didn't expect this thing to be so exaggerated!

Simple and brutal!

30% Spirit Attribute—

Li Yao has never seen

such an exaggerated boost value!

The critical strike chance and critical strike damage are even more outrageous!

Counting the bonuses from the 【Assassin Emblem】 and 【Assassin Bond】,

the Dark-Winged Black Dragon now has a 60% critical strike chance

and a 220% critical strike damage bonus!

Overall,

the 【Assassin Emblem】 and 【Jeweled Gauntlet】,

two pieces of Cloud Top equipment,

bring the Dark-Winged Black Dragon a 132% damage increase!

When enjoying 【World's Apart】,

Li Yao estimates that the continuous damage dealt by the Dark-Winged Black Dragon

has a very high probability of surpassing Kha'Zix!

Becoming the number one output chess piece!

Li Yao glances at the instruments in the corner of the training room.

Isn't he here

precisely to test the damage capabilities of his various chess pieces?

"Let's spend some gold coins first, then go try it out."

Li Yao calculates, his eyes flashing with anticipation.

The gold coins saved up over these days,

plus the drops from Sha and the 【Abyssal Fortress】 monsters,

bring the total number of gold coins to over one thousand.

He had originally intended to save them for a new chess piece,

but now it seems

he can use some of them first.

Even if a new chess piece is initially a B-grade summon,

upgrading it to SR-grade would only cost 660 gold coins.

But to upgrade from SR further,

it would require ten thousand gold coins.

At this stage, that is not a number Li Yao can imagine.

Therefore,

Li Yao plans to upgrade all his chess pieces to SR-grade first

before considering anything else.

No sooner said than done!

The chess piece with the highest priority

is naturally the Dark-Winged Black Dragon, which is already equipped with two pieces of Cloud Top equipment!

In one go,

he upgrades it from SS-grade directly to SR!

【Gold Coins Held: 543】

A white light descends,

enveloping the Dark-Winged Black Dragon.

Immediately after,

the white light expands rapidly,

completely shrouding the entire training room!

A full half-minute passes

before the white light slowly dissipates.

The Dark-Winged Black Dragon's size has increased several times over!

It is at least twenty meters tall, and including its dragon tail, its body length even exceeds sixty meters!

Its scales shimmer with cold light,

and its eight wings are spread wide.

Its exaggerated size blocks out all the light in the training room.

"Finally, it has a bit of a dragon's demeanor."

Li Yao smiles.

Its previous seven or eight-meter size,

in Li Yao's eyes,

was no different from a lizard.

"Pfft!"

The Dark-Winged Black Dragon snorts,

expressing its dissatisfaction.

It has always had a dragon's demeanor!

Its previous small size

was just because it hadn't grown up yet.

Li Yao ignores it

and looks at its attributes after the star upgrade.

The most striking thing

is the name change:

【Void Dark-Winged Black Dragon -> Void Dark Dragon - Gainyatt】

Like Kha'Zix,

this is a sign of evolving to the named level.

Its various attributes have also increased significantly,

especially the main attribute, Spirit.

Even without activating 【World's Apart】,

it has reached the terrifying value of six thousand.

You have to know

that many output-oriented magic-type professionals like to stack the Spirit attribute,

ignoring everything else in their equipment as long as it adds to the Spirit attribute!

In pursuit of ultimate output,

even so,

ordinary third-turn professionals

only have two thousand to three thousand Spirit attribute.

Some top-tier professionals

can break through three thousand,

but that would sacrifice other attributes, which is not worth the loss.

Top-tier professionals generally wouldn't do this.

Four thousand is already an impossible level to reach!

Let alone six thousand!

"Since the base attributes have increased so much, the skills shouldn't disappoint me, right?" Li Yao thinks to himself.

He takes a look and sees that the output skills have all been boosted.

Dragon Breath damage increased from the original 350% to 400%.

Don't underestimate this slight increase.

Dragon Breath is high-frequency continuous damage.

Calculating it,

it increases by 100% per second.

In ten seconds, that's 1000%!

The burst damage 【Core Jianyan Hell】 also increased from the original 700% to 1000%!

The pity is

the damage immunity skill obtained from the new wings did not get an upgrade.

Little master, there is more to this chapter, please click the next page to continue reading, it gets more exciting!

Thinking about it, it's understandable.

Those skills are damage immunity at every turn;

they are already so absurd.

If they were upgraded further,

how would others play?

"With this, the harvest of these days has all been converted into combat power."

Li Yao smiled lightly.

There was also an SSS-grade skill book.

Hope Xiao Hei could receive some Psychic Stones.

Right!

Li Yao suddenly remembered

that Sha, as a True Name-level monster,

had a first-kill drop.

He hurriedly rummaged through his storage ring.

A few seconds later,

a purple crystal appeared in Li Yao's hand.

【Purifier Core Component (Item)】

【Quality: SSS-grade】

【Introduction: Core material for manufacturing Akasia Purifiers. Can be used by Alchemists to make Purifier puppets; can also be used by Seventh-Rank magic-type professionals to condense Purifier summon skill books.】

"It's here!"

Li Yao was extremely excited.

The long-awaited continuous physical output chess piece!

It finally arrived!

As an opponent,

Li Yao knew Sha's strength all too well!

Output and life-saving integrated into one,

normal attacks are long-range purple stray bullets,

perfectly matching the two Cloud Top finished items Li Yao had reserved!

"Level 40."

"As long as I wait until level 40,"

"I can contract Sha!"

Summoning-type professionals

can obtain a summoning slot every ten levels.

【Demonic Contract】 also grants one every time one changes class.

Li Yao's eyes narrowed slightly.

By then,

he would have completed his third class change

and concluded a contract with Sha.

His strength—

what level would it reach?

True Name-level?

And what level is above True Name-level?

However,

before that, he still had to find a Seventh-Rank senior to help.

If the old Dean wasn't a magic-type professional,

he could go to the First Military Academy

and visit Senior Hua.

When he went to his teacher's place to cultivate at night,

he would ask for her advice first.

Li Yao pondered while walking toward the instrument in the corner.

The most conspicuous one

was a metal stake placed in the core area,

somewhat similar to the striking stakes used for practicing fist techniques.

Damage Tester.

Can test short-term burst damage

or test damage per second within a limited time.

Nothing was placed around it,

making it convenient for students to let go.

Advanced Cultivation Room.

This kind of metal stake could withstand the full force of a Fifth-Rank professional.

It should be made of an extremely rare metal.

"Gainerat, you go first?"

"Pfft!"

Gainerat snorted,

looking high-spirited and vigorous.

Li Yao walked to the console

to adjust the specific values,

but discovered

that on the console, one could actually see the damage rankings for various types of metal stakes.

When his teacher brought him to Some Jingyu, she had said

that every class-change stage, as long as one made the leaderboard,

one could get a considerable reward.

Li Yao was a bit curious and clicked on the leaderboard.

Ten-million-health stake DPS ranking,

45-second stake total damage ranking.

The former calculates how much damage can be dealt on average per second when killing a ten-million-health monster.

Some professionals have very high burst output, but once the battle line is drawn out, on average, they don't have as high output as those continuous-type professionals.

Generally, when farming dungeons, people look at this stake.

And the latter

is to see how much total damage can be dealt within a limited time, generally 45 seconds.
