Chapter 24 Ultimate Skill Turns into Basic Attack
Earth Elements
Template: Rare, Earth Elemental Life
Attributes: Strength 10, Agility 7, Constitution 11, Intelligence 8
Skill: Earthquake Shock, which releases shockwaves through attacks, dealing damage while also slowing the target down.
Earth Shield: A shield composed of earth energy constantly covers the body, which can absorb physical and elemental damage and is immune to some earth-attribute attacks. Once the Earth Shield is broken, it takes a certain amount of time to recover.
Rare Template: All attributes +1
Earth Element Life Template: Elemental life, can quickly reassemble as long as the core is not destroyed, and the constitution-related life and defense bonuses are increased by 1.2 times.
Seeing the [Earth Element] attribute and feeling the oppressive feeling, Huang Hong suddenly felt that this thing seemed to be even stronger than the Iron Man armor, and it didn't have the trouble of charging for several hours and having a two-and-a-half-minute battery life.
However, this is to be expected, since it cost 1000 energy points, it would be unreasonable for it not to be strong.
The only thing that puzzled Huang Hong was that the earth element summoned by the rare quality [Elemental Core (Earth)] was only of rare quality. He didn't know if this was normal or if there were some other factors involved.
Now Huang Hong has to consider whether to continue using it as an energy module for his Iron Man armor, or simply use it to wreak havoc with the earth element!
Of course, all of this should be decided after trying it out. Huang Hong has not forgotten that after the Iron Man armor is equipped with a module, it can also obtain the attribute bonuses attached to the module.
However, there is one more thing he needs to verify before that.
Huang Hong chose to load the [Elemental Core (Earth)]. Instantly, the surging earth elemental energy filled his limbs and bones. It was as if his entire body had sunk into a deep swamp, and he was bound by layers of restrictions. Every movement required a hundred times the effort.
Immediately after decompression, Huang Hong plopped down on the ground, panting heavily.
He really didn't expect this outcome. At the moment of loading, the surging energy from the earth elemental plane almost overwhelmed him, and even felt like it was going to assimilate him into an earth elemental life form.
It took Huang Hong a while to calm down before the pent-up earth element energy in his body slowly dissipated.
After realizing that the [Elemental Core (Earth)] was beyond his current control, Huang Hong abandoned the series of ideas that had developed before, and the next step was to load the energy module.
The properties and loading can happen simultaneously, so the earth element still exists when loading has just begun.
To convert it into an energy module, we need to cancel the earth element first. But that's fine, just like with the little stone before. The earth element won't be wasted if it's condensed into a body now.
As Huang Hong retrieved the [Elemental Core (Earth)], the earth element collapsed to the ground, and the churning earth power on his body gradually subsided.
Huang Hong ignored all of that and went to the Iron Man armor to load it.
"Gaga...coocoo...crunch..."
Accompanied by a strange metallic sound, streams of earth elemental energy spread from the chest of the steel armor throughout the body, and the gold and red metal parts were also covered with a dark light, vaguely appearing to have become slightly heavier.
Once the energy subsided, Huang Hong could definitely feel that the Iron Man armor was indeed larger than before, and at the same time, a series of notification sounds rang out...
[Energy module detected, loading initiating... Loading successful...]
[Earth elemental plane energy traction in progress... Adaptation in progress... Assimilation in progress...]
[Energy module fully loaded, energy storage efficiency increased by 500%, charging efficiency increased to 1% recovery every 36 seconds...]
[Energy module activated, main body strength and physique greatly enhanced, defensive capabilities significantly increased...]
[Load energy modules, activate relevant skills... Earth Shock... Earth Shield...]
Mark 47
Template: Rare, Iron Man Armor
Module: 1/3 (Energy Module)
Attributes: Strength 11, Agility 8, Constitution 12, Intelligence 5
Skills: Earth Shock, Earth Shield
Rare Template: All attributes +1
Iron Armor Template: Strength and Constitution +1, Defense increased by an additional 150%.
After loading the energy module, the Iron Man armor's attributes become even stronger than those of the Earth element, and it also inherits the Earth Shield skill.
The only difference is that the Earth Elemental's Earth Shield is a passive skill that will automatically regenerate over time even if it is broken, while the Iron Armor's Earth Shield is an active skill that requires energy to activate.
In addition, the energy consumption of the earthquake impact has been reduced from the original 5%~30% to 1%~6%.
Although the energy storage efficiency has increased by 500%, the base energy consumption is also higher than before due to the improved attributes of the Iron Man armor. Therefore, the endurance has not increased proportionally. Instead, it consumes 1% every 6 seconds, which means that it can be used for ten minutes when the energy is full. In addition, the Iron Man armor can restore 1% of the energy efficiency every 36 seconds. The Iron Man armor has directly changed from an occasional ultimate skill to a main skill that can be used whenever possible.
(This isn't a bug; I can give you a spoiler: although the [Elemental Core (Earth)] is used as an energy module, it's actually just a raw energy core that hasn't undergone any processing, and its true potential hasn't been fully realized.)
All things considered, the Iron Man armor is still more cost-effective. After all, carrying earth elements would make it too conspicuous and more likely to attract attacks from powerful monsters.
With that thought in mind, Huang Hong no longer hesitated and went directly to the Earth Elemental's body to activate the decomposition.
Source energy +11
This number made Huang Hong frown, but it was not unexpected. Although Xiao Shi had decomposed so much source energy before, all of that source energy should actually be considered as left behind by that stone monster.
Even the fact that Xiaoshi, despite being of ordinary quality, possesses such extremely unbalanced attributes is likely due to the materials used in its production.
Thinking about this, Huang Hong suddenly realized that the quality of the earth element might also be related to his newly created body.
Just like in many games and movies, the more ancient the elemental life form, the stronger it is.
Earth elementals need to continuously draw energy from the earth elemental plane to strengthen their bodies, and only after a period of time can they raise their strength to a level commensurate with themselves.
However, this restorative boost may last for several days or even longer. Once it reaches its limit, it will take a long time to further increase its limit.
At the same time, this shattered Huang Hong's dream of using the [Elemental Core (Earth)] to create a self-sufficient system. After spending so much time and making such a big fuss, he only gained a dozen or so points of source energy. He could have used that time to complete several waves of hunting.
The improvement in his strength gave Huang Hong more confidence, and it seemed that those targets he had marked as too dangerous to mess with and therefore deliberately avoided could now be put on the agenda.
Just as Huang Hong was revising his hunting plans...
In the city center, a crimson beam of light shot into the sky, distorting space and freezing time wherever it passed.
The next moment, an invisible force swept across the entire city. All the humans who had reached the maximum level gradually became ethereal and transparent after this force passed by, and disappeared from the spot.
