Zhang Yanhang even felt that if it were a First Tier Awakened, even he himself would not have been able to withstand the rain of fire from the Crimson Iron Breeding Ants during the First Tier Period. Even if a single Acid Liquid Fireball could only cause single-digit damage, the only outcome for Zhang Yanhang would certainly have been his shield breaking in one second followed by instant death on the spot.
Not to mention that these Acid Liquid Fireballs were Skill Attacks, which could never only cause single-digit damage. Even by Zhang Yanhang’s defensive power, receiving double-digit damage was perfectly normal, so this would further speed up the time for Zhang Yanhang to die instantly, although it was already quite fast originally.
Of course, this situation of dying instantly mainly refers to Zhang Yanhang not dodging and standing still to take the Acid Liquid Fireball attacks. If Zhang Yanhang wanted to dodge, it would actually not be difficult, having the Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil Skill. Dodging an acid liquid fireball was really a trivial matter.
However, dodging aside, the ultimate goal was to kill the enemies and obtain Soul points. During the First Tier Period, Zhang Yanhang’s long-range attack methods were only an M4A1 rifle, and at most, adding a rocket launcher, but the rocket launcher had limited ammunition, only about a dozen rounds, so the battle would be quite tough in this situation.
"Fortunately, I was Second Tier when I entered the inner area of the small Crimson Iron Ant Nest Dalagu. If I had blundered here as a First Tier, it’s hard to say what the outcome would have been." Zhang Yanhang sighed softly to himself, then proceeded to check the attribute list of the Dark Purple Quality Achievement.
[Crimson Iron Ant Nest Grave Digger]
[Quality: Dark Purple]
[Prerequisite: Kill 150/150 Crimson Iron Reproduction Ants, 3/3 Crimson Iron Ant Kings, 1/1 Crimson Iron Ant Queen.]
[Description: During the process of hunting Crimson Iron Ants in the Crimson Iron Ant Nest, you deeply understood one thing, ’To catch a thief, catch the king first’; the only method to kill all the Crimson Iron Ants is to kill the Crimson Iron Ant Queen. Otherwise, they would continuously breed more Crimson Iron Ants inexhaustibly.
To achieve this objective of ’To catch a thief, catch the king first’, you completely annihilated the fourth defense line of the Crimson Iron Reproduction Ants in the nest, then right after that, you killed the Crimson Iron Ant King, the final defense line in the nest. After breaking through all the defenses in the Crimson Iron Ant Nest, you finally began the battle with the Crimson Iron Ant Queen.]
[Achievement Reward: Movement Speed +10%, Attack Speed +5%.]
"Movement Speed +10%, Attack Speed +5%? The bonuses given by a Dark Purple Quality achievement are indeed more generous than the previous Blue and Purple qualities. Adding the bonuses from the previous two achievements, it seems I can now gain a total of 15% Movement Speed Bonus and 15% Attack Speed Bonus.
With this 15% Movement Speed Bonus, my efficiency in hunting monsters should increase again..."
Overall, Zhang Yanhang was quite satisfied with these three achievement rewards, the only regret being that he did not receive a bonus in the Charm Attribute Value.
"Since I couldn’t even get a Charm Attribute Value increase from the Achievement Vending Machine, it seems incomplete bit of Charm Attribute Value won’t be able to increase any further in the short term, unless I find something in an Ashen Treasure Box that could increase the Charm Attribute Value, though the likelihood is indeed not great."
After reviewing the three achievements’ attribute lists, Zhang Yanhang immediately began exchanging achievements. As before, whenever he pressed the conversion button, a corresponding colored strange glow would shoot straight from the vending slot into his body.
After quickly exchanging the three achievements, Zhang Yanhang took out the Six Roots Pure Soul Gun from his Waist Bag, next he wanted to test if the increase in Attack Speed would provide any bonus to the shooting speed of the bullets.
Zhang Yanhang adjusted his watch to stopwatch mode, and the moment he started the timer, he pulled the trigger towards the nearby Crimson Iron Ore Wall.
Accompanied by the sound of cannon bullets firing, chips of stone flew about and large cracks along with numerous arm-thick, gloomy bullet holes appeared on the surface of the Crimson Iron Ore Wall.
A few seconds later, all the bullets in the magazine were emptied. Zhang Yanhang glanced at the stopwatch, which had taken about 4.5 seconds, "It really has become faster. Even the bullet shooting speed can get an unexplained bonus from Attack Speed. This thing is really powerful."
Moreover, during the recent shooting, Zhang Yanhang also observed that not only did the bullet shooting speed increase but also the flight speed of the bullets was faster than before. "It seems that Attack Speed could unexpectedly be very useful for me."
While Zhang Yanhang had not yet encountered any monster capable of dodging bullets under Aim of the Gun Master, he felt that sooner or later, he’d meet those types of monsters with Movement Speed reaching Sonic Levels; by then, dodging cannon bullet attacks might not be a difficult thing.
Therefore, in order to cope with the emergence of this situation, Zhang Yanhang felt that gaining more Attack Speed bonuses was indeed a necessary thing. Right now, the speed of cannon bullets had only reached 3.5 times the speed of sound, and he felt that they needed to be raised to at least six times the speed of sound, or six mach, to not be easily dodged by enemies.
By the way, this 3.5 mach was already the result after the Attack Speed Bonus; previously, the highest speed of cannon bullets was only 3 mach.
Of course, even the initial 3 mach is already quite fast for First, Second, and even Third Tier monsters; it’s a speed that can’t be dodged, so Zhang Yanhang’s current pursuit of higher bullet speeds was actually preparing for the future, not something very urgent that needs to be achieved soon.
Thus, although he set this goal of six mach, it only means that Zhang Yanhang will pay more attention to this aspect in the future; it doesn’t mean that he will immediately start a plan to enhance Attack Speed.
After quickly testing the increase in Attack Speed, Zhang Yanhang reset the stopwatch and immediately began testing his Movement Speed.
Since the path from the inner area to the Outer Zone was a long, straight, and gloomy passage, during the return to the Outer Zone, Zhang Yanhang took the opportunity to test his own speed. Thɪs chapter is updated by NoveI-Fire.ɴet
After obtaining the test results, Zhang Yanhang found that his Movement Speed had increased quite dramatically, by more than a quarter, from the original 65 meters per second to 82 meters per second, an increase of 17 meters.
