But the upper limit of this path was clearly far inferior to the regular Awakener System, and the speed of climbing the technology tree was also much slower than normal Tier promotion, Zhang Yanhang felt there was really no need to take this devious route, well, mainly because he was not interested in chanical tentacles—if he were to go for it, he'd go for the true tentacles of Cthulhu.
"My physical body is so weak now, I feel that when I advance to the Fourth Tier in the future, the Heavenly Destiny Master should ideally provide so skills that can enhance my physical strength."
The professional skills Zhang Yanhang had acquired previously were related to his own inclinations rather than being fixed for any profession, so, he guessed that after advancing to the Fourth Tier, this pattern should remain.
That being the case, there was indeed a good hope of obtaining skills that could enhance his physical strength—after all, his physical body was almost becoming a weak point due to its defensive power being lower than that of the Energy Shield, it really needed to be compensated.
As for how the Heavenly Destiny Master would compensate, Zhang Yanhang had no idea, he could only say he trusted the Heavenly Destiny Master's choice, since so far, all the professional skills given by the Heavenly Destiny Master were very suitable for him.
Or rather, they were completely tailor-made; he could only say, worthy of being a profession that cos with the Multiple Choice, truly conscious.
After briefly contemplating, Zhang Yanhang turned off the Technique Immunity skill effect and began to check his Shield Value Limit. After viewing the recent increase in the Shield Value Limit, he was really quite expectant about his Shield Value Limit now.
[Shield Value: 24322/24322 (Life Value Limit × 350% ( 140%), Recovery Rate: 20% per second.)]
"Deserving of Technique Immunity·Original LV.MAX which added 140% to the Shield Value conversion limit, directly raising my Shield Value Limit from the original 14600 points to 24322 points.
A one-ti increase of 9732 points in Shield Value Limit, nearly ten thousand points, is twice the Shield Value Limit increase when I advanced my Tier four and a half hours ago."
Although he had expected this, when he truly saw his own Shield Value Limit, Zhang Yanhang still felt extrely shocked. His original minor goal was to reach a Shield Value Limit of fifteen thousand points, but this ti it allowed him to complete ten minor goals in one breath, pushing the next minor goal directly to twenty-five thousand points.
"Even feels like future small goals could completely be set at five thousand points increase in Shield Value Limit as the standard, no, can't be so inflated."
Besides completing his minor goals, Zhang Yanhang also incidentally achieved his previously set long-term goal, which was to raise the Shield Value Limit to ten tis the Life Value Limit of Sa Tier Awakened.
He originally thought that completing an incomplete version of the minor goal would have been quite good, but he ended up easily completing the full version of the minor goal, even exceeding it by quite a bit.
One should know, he originally thought about relying on the upgrade of the Indestructible Golden Body to complete this long-term goal, but unexpectedly Technique Immunity alone easily achieved this long-term goal.
"I originally felt that reaching ten tis the Sa Tier Awakened's Shield Value Limit was already quite good, but now my Shield Value Limit has directly surpassed ten tis, reaching 10.8 tis, almost eleven tis the level.
Now, even if dozens of Sa Tier Awakened pinned to the ground and hit , and even if I completely cannot resist, I would still take a good while before being killed."
However, that was only limited to Sa Tier Awakened, if he were attacked by Fourth Tier Awakened, it would still be very dangerous.
Therefore, Zhang Yanhang decided to set his next long-term goal around fifteen tis, if he could have a fifteen tis Shield Value Limit, then even being attacked by Fourth Tier Awakened should let him sustain for a while, and with this ti, as long as he was not completely unable to attack, he definitely could counterattack.
"My Life Value Limit is currently 3.5 tis that of the Sa Tier Awakened, plus the 10.8 tis Shield Value Limit, a total of 14.3 tis, although it's still a bit difficult to complete the full version of the fifteen tis long-term goal, it feels like the incomplete version should still be easily achievable, after all, it's only short by 0.7 tis."
According to Zhang Yanhang's estimation, if his Shield Value Limit could reach fifteen tis that of the Sa Tier Awakened, then at that ti his Life Value Limit should also be able to reach at least five tis that of the Sa Tier Awakened.
Thus, he felt that even the encirclent by Fourth Tier Awakened could be endured; after all, adding it up, it's at least twenty tis that of the Sa Tier Awakened—how he thought, it was definitely not going to cause him to be imdiately killed.
The gap between Tiers was indeed large, but it wasn't to this extent, at least on him and other High-level Awakened, it wouldn't be to this extent, as for him and other Low-level Awakened, it should only be higher, no lower.
Of course, during this process, he would still need to combine it with Indestructible Golden Body and other defense-type abilities, otherwise relying solely on the most basic Energy Shield was indeed a bit inadequate.
After checking his Shield Value Limit, Zhang Yanhang began to ponder an important question, which was which skill he should upgrade next?
"Should I upgrade the Indestructible Golden Body? No, it feels enough for the ti being. Then should I upgrade Three-Headed Six-Ard? It could work, but..."
Zhang Yanhang carefully thought about it and felt he should upgrade Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil first, especially for the new area in the Crimson Iron Ore Vein, where Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil's Penetration power was very poor, indeed necessitating more upgrades to detect nearby Monsters and make hunting more smooth.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yanhang imdiately began triggering the options, "Choose! Skill Level Upgrade!"
Accompanied by Zhang Yanhang triggering the option, Ti Pause instantly descended, and at the sa ti, a familiar array of text option boxes appeared before Zhang Yanhang.
...…
After four consecutive triggers of options, Zhang Yanhang waited for a bit, but still did not see the Additional Attributes option triggered after Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil reached the Original LV.MAX, so he directly opened the Attribute list of Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil·Original LV.MAX to start browsing.
[Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil·Original LV.MAX (Passive/Active)]
[Passive Effect: Neural Reflex Speed 50.0% ( 20.0%)]
[Active Effect: Perceive the location of enemies within the perception range, including to a certain extent predicting their next attacks. Currently, the perception range is 5000 （ 2000） 50×75 ( 8) [Intelligence] = 8750 ters ( 2400 ters). No cooldown, consus a small amount of physical strength.]
[Additional Attribute: Skilled—You have now beco skilled in controlling the Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil, allowing you to freely adjust the coverage range of your perception and fully grasp the contours of enemies within your perception range.]
[Additional Attribute: Mastery—You have beco very proficient in controlling the Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil; the penetration power of your perception has increased, allowing you to pick up colors within your perception range through concentrated effort.]
[Additional Attribute: Specialization—After a prolonged effort, you have beco specialized in controlling the Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil; the penetration power and anti-interference ability of your perception have further increased, making your perception of surrounding objects much more precise.]
[Additional Attribute: Expert—After a long period of effort, you have beco an expert in controlling the Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil Skill; extended research has let you gradually master the thods of observing vibrations and has given you new insights into the colors of perceivable objects and the penetration power of your perception.]
"Vibrations? What does that an?"
Since he was always interested in additional attributes, Zhang Yanhang started by examining the additional attributes, but found them sowhat difficult to comprehend this ti.
Fortunately, while he couldn't understand the first part temporarily, he thoroughly grasped the latter part, realizing that understanding the colors of perceivable objects likely implied a further enhancent in the quality of Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil.
The penetration power of perception was easier to understand; it was a literal increase in the penetrative ability of perception, though how much it had improved would only be known after experinting later.
After focusing on the additional attributes obtained from upgrading Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil to the Original LV.MAX, Zhang Yanhang quickly paid attention to the equally important, or perhaps the most important, growth in perception range.
"Compared to the perception range derived from the Intelligence Attribute Value, it's clear that the inherent basic perception range of Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil has increased the most, directly jumping from the original 3000 ters to 5000 ters, an instant increase of 2000 ters.
And the perception range derived from the Intelligence attribute, because the Intelligence attribute only increased by eight points to reach the tier limit, only added a re fourth hundred ters to the perception range.
Together, they have resulted in an overall increase of 2400 ters to my perception range, expanding from the original 6350 ters to 8750 ters, roughly a one-third increase, almost forty percent."
Zhang Yanhang did the math briefly and realized that this improvent was indeed very significant. Although it seed like just a one-third increase in perception range, the covered area had actually almost doubled.
Zhang Yanhang's original coverage area was thirty-two square kiloters, but this ti it had again increased by twenty-eight square kiloters to a total of sixty square kiloters.
If previously Zhang Yanhang could only cover the Southern City District of Qin Island City, now he could cover even Shibei District, which is twice the size of Southern City District.
"But this ti Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil really increased a lot, nearly reaching nine thousand ters. However, this is also the limit for Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil; within the third tier, there should be no further enhancents, only promotion to the fourth tier might allow further improvents."
Now, Zhang Yanhang's perception range from Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil was at a state of maximum possible growth, given that the skill level had reached the highest Original LV.MAX and his Intelligence had also reached the highest seventy-five points, there indeed were no other avenues for improvent.
Unless he could get so equipnt or ability that could increase the perception range, he would definitely need to wait until fourth tier to further enhance the perception range.
But luckily, having a perception range of 8750 ters was already quite satisfactory for Zhang Yanhang. In smaller area regions like Raccoon City, he could now directly scan an entire area at once, and in slightly larger areas like Goblin Plain, he could scan half at a ti, completing the entire area in two rounds.
Even in the largest area he had encountered so far, 'the Demonized Swamp', he now only needed six to seven rounds of perception to completely scan it, which was really sufficient.
"I wonder if there have been any changes in the energy consumption of Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil. According to the skill description, it still only consus a small amount of physical strength, but based on previous experience, it probably hasn't increased much?"
Zhang Yanhang estimated that the consumption of Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil might at most just double, maintaining its long-term sustainability definitely wouldn't be a problem.
After all, he had just greatly increased his physical strength by improving his Constitution attribute, so it definitely wouldn't be insufficient; and it wouldn't make sense if even the Death Wave could be sustained but not Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil.
As for the specific consumption of Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil, it indeed still needs to be confird by Zhang Yanhang's actual use.
"Besides the perception range, the enhancent to the Neural Reflex Speed has also increased again by 20%, from the original 30% to 50%..."
Zhang Yanhang rembered that Neural Reflex Speed is a branch attribute of the Agility attribute, mainly enhancing a person's response capability, and when combined with the true function of Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil—predicting the next attack of the enemy—it indeed is very useful.
It could allow him to dodge enemy attacks a step earlier and take advantage of the enemy's attacks' intervals or exposed weaknesses to launch counterattacks that interrupt or disrupt the enemy's attack and create additional attack effects. Overall, it's a capability that could let Zhang Yanhang carry out flawless counterattacks against enemies.
However, because of Zhang Yanhang's battle style, this wasn't particularly useful for him as he preferred to stand his ground and take the enemy's attacks head-on.
Of course, this all depends on the fighting style. If an Agility-type Awakener had this skill, they could definitely perform various fancy techniques, but sadly, Zhang Yanhang was simply too lazy to bother.
Or rather, he hadn't encountered enemies so powerful that he needed to evade them, but if he did encounter such powerful enemies, he certainly would not forget to use Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil to avoid their attacks.
This is similar to the Fighting Master; although the Fighting Master really did teach him a bunch of close combat techniques, making him surpass at least 99% of awakeners in this area, if enemies could be beaten directly with Rash Fist, then there really is no need for all sorts of other close combat techniques, as they would rely waste extra physical strength.
Therefore, Zhang Yanhang only uses the close combat techniques given by Fighting Master when facing tough opponents, but unfortunately, he hasn't encountered any yet.
