Chapter 4: The Miracle of the Second Upgrade! (Part II)
"If you really want to deal with the Sharon organization and that Mubarasha, just by your current level, I'm afraid ...... It's not enough. When discussing this idea with Bupa, the old fellow expressed his pessimism quite dryly: "Since Mubarasa is a 'martial artist' and has so many masters under him who are both martial cultivators and god servants, you want to deal with this large group single-handedly, unless you can become a master with incomparably rich combat experience like him, or completely suppress him in terms of cosmic power." ”
The question is...... Both of these possibilities sound so slim......
"It's not hopeless. After adjusting his appetite for a long time, Bupa said slowly: "Martial artist, you don't have to think about it, you need at least tens of millions of battles between martial cultivators to develop the ability to make any attack or dodge action just by instinct and subconscious reactions." There is such a thing as a sense of battle, which cannot be cultivated by training. Like me back then, even though I had a strong cosmic power and a lot of fights, I still didn't qualify for the title of 'martial artist'. But if we rely on cosmic forces and cosmic speed alone, we will at least have one more chance......"
"What chance?"
"Warframe upgrade!" There was a hint of excitement in Bupa's voice: "When you have level forty cosmic power, you can upgrade your warframe for the second time." It's just because you just skipped this stage at that time, and then there are such and such things to disturb you...... You know, a second upgrade of the Warframe can at least change that broken thing from 'Yellow' to 'Xuan'. At that time, even if it is still only a 'Xuan'-level low-grade battle armor, it will still have a certain cosmic force amplification effect. ”
"Then you can defeat Mubarasha?" Lin Shu was a little disapproving: "You know, He Tianxiang still had no choice but to get that guy with his seventy-first level cosmic power cultivation. Could it be that if this armor is upgraded to the 'Xuan' level, it will increase my cosmic power to seventy-two?"
"It's really impossible for a battle armor that only reaches the 'Xuan' level to have such a good effect, but if it is upgraded to the 'earth' level......" Bupa laughed hesitantly, his tone full of pride: "That amplification effect will definitely make you satisfied!"
Lin Shu looked for the section related to the "Three Upgrades of the Battle Armor" in the database, and quickly frowned again: "Even if I can increase it, wouldn't He Qianxiang have upgraded the Battle Armor to the 'Earth' level? Since he lost to Mubarasha, it means that this method has no effect at all." ”
"Idiot, do you think that the 'earth' level is said to be upgraded?" Bupa sneered and said arrogantly: "With such a resource reserve as the Flying Bird Galaxy, let alone three upgrades of the battle armor. Even if the raw materials needed for the second upgrade are enough for them to spend their minds!"
Lin Shu remembered He Hu's yellow armor that was regarded as a treasure, and nodded sympathetically: "That's right...... However, from the small star database, the three upgrades of the Warframe not only require three times the number of high-grade materials compared to the previous two times, but also seem to have to ask for something called...... Refining earth stuff? Where are we going to get this thing, we don't have it, do we?"
"Nonsense! If I didn't come up with this idea?" Bupa scolded angrily: "Last time I gave you those seven things! You said that what looks like plasticine is refined soil! The price of high-end goods produced by authentic essence Saturn will definitely not be cheaper than three kilograms of iron essence!"
Is that the disgusting green thing?Lin Shu blinked, his mind quickly connected with Xiaoxing's storage space, searching for traces of this small piece of refined soil in the vast alien space—a moment later, as soon as he flipped his palm, the green clay magically appeared in his palm.
"How do I use it?"
"Wait until you have cultivated the cosmic power to the seventieth level. Bupa said decisively, "Before we do that, let's look for an opportunity to turn your thing into a 'Xuan' level. I don't believe it, the best materials are used, and it doesn't work at all!"
In fact, it's not useless now—at least the other battle armors that Lin Shu has seen are not as terrifying as his own.
******
From Xiaoxing's huge and complete database, Lin Shu learned that the armor and upgrade of the battle armor had always been the most annoying thing for martial cultivators in the Alpha Nebula. The former is due to the high cost of materials and the uncertainty of armoring results.
- You have spent countless money, found countless ways to buy the best alloys, iron, copper, and even silver. But this does not mean that you will be able to armor a mid-grade or high-grade armor. And even if the armor is successful, the armor doesn't necessarily come with the abilities you need.
As for the latter, it is a difficult problem that has taught countless people headaches to the point of almost madness......
Upgrades, whether for the second or third time, or simply for the last time, require more materials than the first armor, and the quality must be one notch higher than the previous one. Despite this, the success rate of the upgrade is also much lower than the initial armor - the abilities attached to the Warframe may disappear, the Warframe itself may have low coverage, and if it is not done well, the entire Warframe may even be upgraded to a large pile of pieces.
And even if you happen to succeed in upgrading your warframe, there is still a ninety-five percent chance that your own grade will drop by one notch.
That is to say, when upgraded twice, the "Yellow" level high-grade battle armor has a ninety and a half chance of becoming a "Xuan" level mid-grade battle armor, and when it is upgraded three times, this thing also has a ninety and a half percent chance of becoming a "ground" level low-grade.
The one who really has been upgrading the battle armor to the "heaven" level and can still maintain it at the top grade is definitely the smoke of the ancestral cemetery with good feng shui - the legend says that everyone's battle armor is a "heaven" level of the top grade of the eight sages, and it is estimated that it belongs to this category.
Someone concluded: When a master is not only talented, diligent and hardworking, but also has luck millions of times stronger than ordinary people.
That's why there are so few masters in the Alpha Nebula.
But at this moment, Lin Shu, who was ambitious and ready to upgrade his tattered battle armor to the "Xuan" level, had no such worries at all!
Originally, a low-grade armor with no additional abilities, where are you afraid that it will fail again?
"Fortunately, I brought some amethyst out of it, otherwise I would have to go all the way back. Spreading a large pile of amethyst stones on the ground from the storage space, Lin Shu was quite fortunate to pick them up, and took all the spars below the first-grade back into the storage space: "But I said Lao Bu, the second-grade amethyst was used for armoring last time, and this time it is better to use first-grade amethyst." When you upgrade three times next time, you can also find top-grade amethyst as a material...... But if I get to level ninety, what materials will I find for the final upgrade?"
Bupa was obviously stunned, and he had just thought of this question: ", everyone else is worried that they can't find even a slightly better copper essence, so you just worry about the final upgrade materials! It's really a rich man's trouble...... Let's talk about it then, it's still early anyway!"
That's right, there's no need to worry about future troubles.
Lin Shu flew into the air, looked around, and then returned to the remote valley where he had landed, and when he landed on the ground, he had already changed into the blue and purple battle armor: "So, let's start now! What should I do? Just like the first armor, do you want to empty all the internal breath first?"
"No, it's the opposite! You have to take all the energy that you can feel around you into your body. Imagine being like a miniature black hole, like a nemesis, right...... Turn your own body into a black hole and let the energy all pour into your body. ”
(I don't know what happened to the nemesis, this guy has eaten so much amethyst, it's time to grow to the second stage, right?)
With such thoughts, Lin Shu gradually sank into an unconscious state. The countless solid internal breaths in his body are constantly condensed and condensed. The white hard crystals, the white internal organs, and the white heart slowly retracted from the outside in.
And in this entire valley, within a radius of hundreds of square meters with him as the center, a small tornado suddenly blew......
The primordial energy that was free in the air slowly penetrated into the body of the forest tree with this whirlwind.
With this change, the first-grade amethyst stone that he picked out and placed around his body gradually changed from the original solid state to a liquid state in the process of reverse absorption of energy. The light refracted these precious gemstone lava rocks, spreading a large purple color around the body of the forest tree.
As for the blue-purple armor on his body, it suddenly emitted two completely different lights.
The two intense rays of purple and blue are entangled in the center of the whirlwind, but there is no diffraction between them, which greatly violates the basic characteristics of light!
"Damn, my head hurts so much!" After holding on for a while, Lin Shu suddenly shouted: "Why does even the spiritual power shrink from the outside when absorbing free energy! Bupa! Bupa, you idiot, what's going on? Stop the headache!!"
"I ...... I don't know why. Bupa defended aggrievedly: "The cultivation methods of capable people and martial cultivators are inherently different, and this battle armor has a bit of an impact on each other when it is upgraded...... It is estimated that it is inevitable. Otherwise, you can bear with it. ”
Damn! Fall for this dead old boy! With Lin Shu's resolute mind, which is completely beyond the ability of ordinary people to endure, he can't bear the pain of screaming out - what a terrible torture this must be?
The painful nerves in the brain trembled one after another, and the boundless pain hit Lin Shu's willpower like a tidal wave without stopping.
And he, just gritted his teeth like that, and never made a single cry of pain!
(Since he is not in a coma, it means that the pain is still within the range of the nerves...... Damn, I don't believe I can't keep going!)
But in fact, Lin Shu didn't know that his current mental control ability had already risen to the "cloud" level, and it was impossible for a person with this level of mental control ability to close his mind because of any stimulus - the level of pain at this time was not only beyond the scope that his ability could bear, but even if he changed to a higher level of spiritual ability, he would definitely not be able to bear it to the point of collapse!
But Lin Shu, with his incomparably tenacious mind, endured this kind of pain that far exceeded the limits of human beings!
