Chapter 1910: Rapid Development (24)

Since he's going all-out on crafting, his stats have to serve crafting completely.

With 10 Intelligence plus an Efficiency boost of +710%, crafting speed can be maximized.

But that's still not enough.

Zhao Chi pulled out an Efficiency Guidebook and activated it instantly.

Light flared inside the armory, brighter than the morning sun outside.

All preparations complete — he can really get started now.

The armory's interior was spacious enough.

Several thousand brand-new ultra-heavy steel equipment pieces were sorted and stacked beside Zhao Chi's workbench.

When modifying the steel equipment, Zhao Chi could clearly feel the difficulty increase.

Not only did the steel material itself become harder to work with, but the modification difficulty had risen considerably as well.

And these were ultra-heavy pieces on top of that.

Modified in Zhao Chi's special way, no less.

But that didn't matter.

With those gray messages, plus Zhao Chi's Smithing skill of over 400 points, a 100% success rate was still guaranteed — it just meant slowing the pace a little.

With Zhuang Ya, that elegant older-sister type, keeping him company beside him, he didn't feel bored at all.

Take it slow.

Soon, an entire set of armor and weapons had all been modified.

Looking at the stats, they truly lived up to being steel weapons.

The boost was a direct doubling.

Zhao Chi took out a steel Phoenix Cry blade and a steel Mystic Maiden shield, and compared them to the iron equipment Zhuang Ya was wearing — the gap was obvious.

【Name】Ultra-Heavy Two-Handed Chengying Phoenix Cry Blade

【Material】Steel

【Quality】Standard

【Grade】Super-Modified

【Weight】18 kg

【Durability】2400

【Attack】228

【Destruction】90

【Effect】Female-only: Range +50%, Attack +50%, Attack Speed +5%, Accuracy +5%

Apart from the final effect, which couldn't be changed, every other stat had been boosted.

Weight had increased by 50%, already reaching a hefty 18 kg.

It is a two-handed blade, after all.

It is ultra-heavy, after all.

An ordinary person would struggle just to lift it, let alone swing it in combat.

But the stats really were excellent.

Durability as high as 2400 points — he could really hack away without a care.

Chop people, chop shields, chop armor.

Even chopping trees, cars, or buildings wouldn't hurt his conscience.

With durability that high, he could be a little reckless doing anything.

And the attack power lived up to the material and weight.

A whopping 228 points of attack power — a one-hit kill, no question.

Even an 18-kilogram brick could crush someone in one swing, let alone a carefully crafted two-handed blade like this.

Besides attack power, destruction power had also doubled straight to 90 points.

Three swings and he could hack through steel armor or a steel shield.

Plenty of power.

This strong, and it's still only the base stats.

There's still a whole series of effect bonuses on top.

Range +50% hadn't changed, but Attack +50% could push this blade's attack power straight up to 342 points — add the destruction stat, and two swings to smash through steel armor is no problem at all.

That is steel armor, mind you.

Steel armor that gives people a real sense of security.

Against this blade, it can only hold up for two hits.

Truly powerful.

Besides this Phoenix Cry blade, the others like the Moon-Chasing Spear, Swallow-Spin Axe, and Jade Beauty Hammer were all heavy and powerful alike.

【Moon-Chasing Spear】13.5 kg, Durability 1800, Attack 204, Pierce 122, Range +50%, Attack +50%, Evasion +5%, Accuracy +5%

Ordinary steel shields and steel armor only have 52 points of defense.
