Chapter 138 SSS Rank [Undercurrent Assault]
Rock Helmet
Rank: SS
Level requirement: 25
Attributes: Strength +280, Stamina +480, Physical Defense +750, Magic Defense +400, Health +3000
Effect 1: Rock Solid: After successfully blocking or parrying an attack, there is a 30% chance to trigger "Heart of Rock", immediately restoring 8% of your maximum health and gaining a shield that lasts for 3 seconds and can absorb damage equal to 10% of your maximum health.
Effect 2: Counterattack: When attacked by melee physical damage, there is a 15% chance to reflect 40% of the damage back to the attacker. When the reflection is triggered, the user gains temporary damage reduction.
Effect 3: Immovable as a Mountain: Passively increases tenacity by 25% (reduces control duration). This effect doubles when health is below 50%. Standing still for more than 2 seconds will automatically grant "Steady Stance," increasing both physical and magical defense by 5%, stacking up to 3 times. It disappears after moving.
Description: The helmet has a simple and heavy design, with a dark brown color resembling a reef that has withstood thousands of years of wind and frost. Naturally formed defensive runes subtly flow across its surface. Wearing it gives one a sense of stability, as if connected to the earth.
【Mighty Guardian Belt】
Rank: SS
Level requirement: 25
Attributes: Strength +380, Stamina +280, Physical Defense +450, Health +2200
Effect 1: Source of Power: Increases the wearer's base Strength attribute by 15%. Each time physical damage is dealt, there is a 5% chance to gain a stack of "Mighty Strength", which increases the damage of the next physical attack by 50% for 5 seconds, and can stack up to 2 times.
Effect 2: Guardian Oath: The active skill [Perseverance] is enhanced. For 6 seconds after activation, all physical damage received is reduced by 25%, and each attack received will deal a minor area-of-effect physical counterattack damage to enemies within 5 meters. Cooldown time reduced to 90 seconds.
Effect 3: Unyielding Will: When health drops below 30%, "Unyielding" is automatically triggered, removing all movement-impairing effects and greatly increasing health regeneration speed for the next 5 seconds. This effect can trigger a maximum of once every 3 minutes.
Description: The belt is made from the leather of some unknown behemoth. The metal buckle is engraved with ancient totems symbolizing power and protection. It is warm to the touch and one can faintly feel the immense power of blood and energy contained within it.
[Skill Book: Stealth Attack]
Rank: SSS
Job Requirements: Assassin, or any class with stealth skills.
Effect 1: Perfect Stealth: Consumes a certain amount of mana to enter the "Stealth" state, increasing movement speed by 40% and greatly enhancing stealth. While in stealth, a certain amount of health and mana are restored per second.
Effect 2: Surprise Attack: The first attack launched while in stealth mode deals 150% more damage and has a 100% chance to stun the target for 2 seconds. This attack is guaranteed to hit (unless the target is in a state of absolute evasion).
Effect 3: Shadow Travel: When activated, instantly teleports a short distance to any designated location within 15 meters (must be within sight or perception range), and maintains or immediately enters stealth mode. The teleportation process grants immunity to all damage and crowd control effects. Cooldown: 20 seconds.
Effect 4: Dark Current Domain: After successfully killing a target with [Dark Current Assault], a "Dark Current Domain" will be generated at the target's location for 8 seconds. Within the domain, the cooldown recovery speed of all the user's skills is increased by 30%, the movement speed of enemies is reduced by 20%, and they take a small amount of shadow damage per second.
Description: This describes a supreme technique that allows one to merge with the flow of energy, launching a fatal attack between the tangible and intangible. Those who master this technique are like apex predators in the deep sea, silent and stealthy, yet in control of life and death.
"As expected of high-level equipment, the boost after upgrading to SS and SSS rank is truly astounding." Lin Tian nodded in satisfaction upon seeing the new attributes of the equipment and skills.
The three SS-grade equipment pieces have undergone a qualitative leap in attributes, with each additional effect being extremely practical and powerful, far surpassing ordinary S-grade equipment.
And that SSS-level skill book, [Dark Current Assault], has an effect that can only be described as heaven-defying!
Not only is the stealth effect greatly enhanced and the surprise attack damage terrifying, but it also comes with powerful effects such as short-range teleportation and the formation of a buff field after a kill!
"This upgrade point was totally worth it!" Lin Tian didn't hesitate and immediately learned the [Skill Book: Dark Current Assault].
With a thought, Lin Tian took out the three dazzling SS-grade new equipment pieces from his backpack.
He first removed the [Lava Core Staff] that had been with him for some time. This A-rank staff was entirely crimson, with faint lava patterns, and had made great contributions to his fire-type damage output in the early stages.
However, as enemies grow stronger, its additional 280 points of intelligence and 80 points of spirit, as well as its effect of only increasing fire damage, have gradually become somewhat ineffective.
Instead, there is the [Tide Staff].
The staff felt cool to the touch, like jade.
The staff is a deep ocean blue, with water seemingly pulsating slowly inside. The pearl at the top is like a miniature ocean sealed within, with the ebb and flow of the tides and the faint sound of calming waves.
Next, replace the level 15 [Crack Claw Helmet] with the [Stone Helmet], and replace the level 15 [Rock Throat Might Belt] with the [Mighty Guardian Belt].
After replacing the three pieces of equipment, Lin Tian's attributes increased slightly.
He glanced at himself and saw that, apart from the slightly inferior level 15 A-grade [Worm Ring] on his finger, all his equipment was already SS grade.
"Hmm? I almost forgot about this." His gaze fell on the [Holy Light Orb] floating in the second-in-command's seat.
This S-grade off-hand item has excellent stats, especially its ability to reduce cooldown and mana consumption, making it a true artifact.
"This Holy Light Magic Orb is so effective, it's worth investing in!" Lin Tian no longer hesitated and locked his mind onto the Holy Light Magic Orb.
[Ding! 10000 upgrade points consumed, [Holy Light Magic Orb] rank upgraded from S to SS!]
Ten thousand upgrade points were deducted instantly. [Current remaining upgrade points: 16241]
Looking at his rapidly dwindling upgrade points, Lin Tian couldn't help but feel a pang of regret: "Sigh, upgrade points really don't last long. Looks like I need to hurry up and farm some more."
【Holy Light Magic Ball】
Rank: SS
Equipment Slot: Off-hand
Effect 1: Holy Light Judgment: Increases all spell damage dealt to abyssal and undead creatures by 50%! The power of Holy Light has a powerful purifying effect on these evil beings.
Effect 2: Magic Coordination: Reduces the cooldown of all active skills by 40%.
Effect 3: Mana Affinity: Reduces the mana cost of all active skills by 40%.
Effect 4: Divine Infusion: Consumes 15% of your maximum mana to apply the "Divine Infusion" effect to yourself or a friendly target for 10 seconds. If the target dies during the effect, they will be immediately resurrected and restored with 50% of their health and mana.
