If nothing unexpected happens, the 15% strength effect bonus from the Divination Tarot Card Set should be the last strength enhancement Zhang Yanhang could obtain at the Third Tier stage. After all, he would be returning to the Main World for a promotion after sorting out the Tarot Card Set.
After testing his strength, Zhang Yanhang quickly turned his attention to the critical strike rate again. This time, he gained another 15% critical strike rate bonus, increasing his total critical strike rate bonus from the original 182% to 197%, meaning an overflow of 97% critical strike rate bonus could be converted into additional critical strike damage bonuses.
"I never imagined that while leveling up, the critical strike rate would nearly reach two hundred percent. Now, even if enemies have a hundred percent critical resistance, they would undoubtedly still be hit by a guaranteed critical strike.
A single Golden quality Crimson Marrow Ghost Claw +6 provides a 50% critical strike damage bonus. Now, just this extra critical strike damage bonus is almost equivalent to the total bonus provided by two Crimson Marrow Ghost Claws +6. It's becoming outrageous."
Besides the critical strike rate bonus, after being promoted to Dark Purple Quality, the Divination Tarot Card Set also provided him with a 30% critical strike damage bonus. Zhang Yanhang's original critical strike multiplier was 460%. Now, it has increased to 490%, which is almost enough to turn normal attacks into quintuple damage.
Moreover, aside from the basic 490% critical strike multiplier, the critical strike rate also provided an additional 97% critical strike damage bonus, forming a total of 587% critical strike damage multiplier, which, after rounding, could consider normal attacks as sixfold damage.
"Who would have thought that when I first reached the Third Tier, my only goal was to raise the critical strike rate to over twenty percent, sufficiently happy with triggering a base multiplier of 200% critical strike damage once in every five attacks?"
From that rather modest initial goal, Zhang Yanhang has now exceeded it by who knows how many times, even if just considering the critical strike rate, it's at least ten times the completion.
Regarding this, Zhang Yanhang's only thought was that the Three-Headed Six-Armed Skill's additional Equipment slots are indeed explosively powerful, allowing him to use one piece of Equipment as four, virtually obtaining a fourfold bonus. No wonder his strength improved so rapidly after this promotion to the Third Tier, and the overall strength improvement rate completely shattered the records of the First and Second Tiers.
"It would be great if the professional skills obtained upon promotion to the Fourth Tier could be as powerful as Three-Headed Six-Armed and Fatian Xiangdi. However, it's tough to say whether such powerful skills could be obtained again."
But considering that each of the professional skills from Heavenly Destiny Master is very strong, Zhang Yanhang felt that there was still a good chance. At the very least, it should be skills of the strength of Indestructible Golden Body and Supreme Will, which are still very buggy.
After focusing on critical strike damage, Zhang Yanhang quickly continued to pay attention to another very important enhancement effect, which was the increase in skill coverage range.
"With the promotion of the Tarot Card Set to Dark Purple Quality, I gained another 15% skill coverage range bonus. With this, the coverage range of my Death Wave Skill could, once again, increase by another 180 meters.
This increases the total coverage range from the original 1560 meters to 1740 meters, substantially expanding the coverage area of the Death Wave once again."
Zhang Yanhang's Death Wave Skill's coverage area had increased from an original 1.91 square kilometers to 2.38 square kilometers, an increase of 0.47 square kilometers.
"I remember last time, though it was also only an increase of 180 meters in coverage area, it was just a 0.41 square kilometer increase, but this time it's an extra 0.06 square kilometers, approximately a seventh more. The coverage area, indeed, tends to grow more as it progresses.
Last time it was still less than two square kilometers, but now it immediately rose to over two square kilometers, with an additional 0.38 square kilometers in coverage area which is another huge boost for my hunting efficiency."
For instance, previously, Zhang Yanhang needed to unleash the Death Wave twenty-one times to clear a forty-square-kilometer area of the small Crimson Iron Ant Nest Talano, but now only seventeen times are required, reducing it by four times, almost a fifth. This level of improvement is indeed significant.
"Besides the Death Wave Skill, my Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil Skill also enjoyed the same 15% increase in coverage, expanding the total coverage area from the initial 11375 meters to 12688 meters, with an increase of 1313 meters in range."
And as for the actual situation, aside from the normal increase of the Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil's range to 12688 meters, his perception range in the large Crimson Iron Ant Nest Talano also extended outward by about five hundred meters, growing the coverage area from the original 3500 meters to 4000 meters.
"Previously, my Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil's coverage area was 102 square kilometers, now it has expanded to 126 square kilometers, an increase of 24 square kilometers.
The Southern City District of Qin Island City covers thirty square kilometers, and Licang District covers ninety-nine square kilometers, totaling one hundred twenty-nine square kilometers. I am now just three square kilometers short of covering both the Southern City and Licang Districts simultaneously, which is quite good.
But although it's already very good, there's still a significant gap from my goal to scan the three districts within the city simultaneously—Southern City, North City, and Licang, which together cover 192 square kilometers, and I'm still short by 66 square kilometers.
That part will indeed have to wait until I am promoted to the Fourth Tier."
Although it is indeed very challenging to make advancements right now, Zhang Yanhang believed that once he got promoted to the Fourth Tier and upgraded his Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil Skill, he would definitely see a tremendous increase in coverage, which should easily allow him to achieve his minor goal of scanning all three city districts simultaneously.
"Half an hour ago, I still couldn't scan the 110-square-kilometer Goblin Plain in one go, but now, I can even spare some scanning range, thanks to the quality improvement of the Tarot Cards, the growth rate of the Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil Skill's coverage area is indeed very fast."
With the current coverage area of the Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil, Zhang Yanhang could now simultaneously scan three Raccoon Cities. Whenever he thought about the painful times in the past when he had to rely on the Enemy Seeking Radar just to scan for enemies, Zhang Yanhang couldn't help but feel immensely moved; the gap between Ranks was truly boundless.
After being slightly sentimental, Zhang Yanhang quickly shifted his focus back to the Attack Speed Bonus. This time, he had obtained a 15% Attack Speed Bonus from the Divination Tarot Card Set, significantly enhancing his attack efficiency.
Zhang Yanhang's Six Roots Pure Soul Gun's cannon bullets initially fired at 324 shots per second, but now it had increased to 339 shots per second, boosting the per second firing rate of the machine gun bullets by another 15 shots.
In the past, as the firing rate of the cannon bullets increased, Zhang Yanhang normally cleared out the machine gun magazine at a synchronously increasing rate.
However, this time, since the bonuses obtained were not substantial and because it became increasingly challenging to enhance the speed of emptying the magazine further, the speed remained about the same, around 1.5 seconds, with only a minimal reduction of less than 0.1 seconds.
Because the change in the speed of emptying the machine gun magazine this time was not significant, Zhang Yanhang increasingly felt that his small goal of reducing the emptying time to under one second was difficult to achieve, but there was no choice but to persist through tears since it was a goal he had set for himself.
"Although the emptying speed of the cannon bullets is not remarkably fast, the increase in the flight speed of the cannon bullets is still quite significant."
The original flight speed of Zhang Yanhang's Six Roots Pure Soul Gun's cannon bullets was only 9.7 Mach, but it had now increased to 10.2 Mach, with an increase of 0.5 Mach in speed.
If this increase of 0.5 Mach is converted to meters per second, that means the flight speed per second had increased by another 170 meters.
"Of course, the most important thing is that my cannon bullets' flight speed has finally broken through ten Mach."
What does ten Mach mean? That was the flight speed of long-range ballistic missiles that Zhang Yanhang had always coveted.
"Previously, maintaining a speed within the medium-range missile section of 4-10 Mach was quite uncomfortable. Now that it has finally entered the 10-20 Mach section of long-range ballistic missiles, the flight speed of the cannon bullets in the future can rival that of long-range ballistic missiles, and the power has also increased significantly."
According to the kinetic energy formula, the attack power of Zhang Yanhang's current 10.2 Mach cannon bullets had become twelve times that of three Mach cannon bullets, whereas the previous nine Mach cannon bullets were only nine times more powerful than the three Mach cannon bullets. Hence, although it was only one Mach faster, the attack power had increased threefold, essentially a one-third increase.
Unfortunately, with the kinetic energy formula, which calculates directly using the square, the higher you go, the bigger the increase. That's why there is this incredible situation of just a one Mach increase, yet the attack power had tripled.
"But although it indeed reached over ten Mach, the small goals I had set before were to increase the flight speed of the cannon bullets to twelve Mach, and I am still 1.8 Mach away from achieving this small objective."
If converted into specific percentages, Zhang Yanhang had only completed about 40% of this goal, with 60% still urgently needing to be filled, but that likewise would need the Fourth Tier to be achieved.
"Previously, even counting the set effect, the Purple Quality Divination Tarot Card - Pope only provided a 15% reduction in skill cooldown time. But now that I have been promoted to Dark Purple Quality, it has increased by another 7.5%, totaling a 22.5% reduction in skill cooldown time."
With this additional 7.5% reduction in skill cooldown time, the cooldown time of Zhang Yanhang's All Four Elements are Void skill had decreased from 25.5 seconds to 23.25 seconds, further reducing by 2.25 seconds.
While it still isn't much, compared to the initial thirty seconds, it had already reduced the time by a total of 6.75 seconds. Overall, it had decreased by more than a fifth of the cooldown time, which was fairly significant.
Overall, the prospects for development are still very promising. As long as efforts to enhance continue in the future, it will undoubtedly bring significant benefits to him.
"Next would be the bonuses brought by the maximum life value conversion coefficient and the maximum energy value conversion coefficient."
Zhang Yanhang was highly anticipating the enhancements provided by the nine points' maximum life value conversion coefficient and the maximum energy value conversion coefficient, so he quickly clicked on his life value to start checking.
"Life Value: 10040/10040 (Constitution × 43 (+9), current body has been officially digitized, life value recovery speed, 30 points per hour.)"
"Finally, the day has come. After tremendous hardships, my maximum life value has grown to over ten thousand points, jumping from four digits to five, achieving a major breakthrough."
Zhang Yanhang's original life value limit was only 8690 points, but now it had directly grown to 10040 points, an increase of 1350 points in total.
"The nine points' maximum life value conversion coefficient indeed provides a substantial enhancement to the life value limit. It directly helped me achieve the small goals of surpassing nine thousand points and ten thousand points life value limit."
For the next small goal, Zhang Yanhang plans to set it at 11,000 points. Yes, small goals should indeed be relatively easy to achieve.
After all, if Zhang Yanhang directly set a small goal of 15,000 points life value limit, he might not even be able to gather enough for a promotion, turning it from a small goal to a long-term goal, which is genuinely unnecessary.
Zhang Yanhang had learned his lesson from setting the small goal of clearing the machine gun magazine in one second. He now firmly believes that small goals should primarily be achievable in the short term. That's why they can be called small goals.
The 1350 points increase in life value limit that Zhang Yanhang achieved this time, the part actually uplifted by the maximum life value conversion coefficient, accounted for only 675 points, while the other 675 points all came from the 100% life value limit enhancement provided by the Indestructible Golden Body·Original LV.MAX.
"The enhancement to the life value limit is genuinely powerful. Now, whenever I gained an increase in life value limit, I could immediately double the original value based solely on this 100% enhancement."
Once promoted to the Fourth Tier, Zhang Yanhang will decidedly enhance the skill level of the Indestructible Golden Body. Even if not for anything else, just to enhance the life value limit enhancement, which is genuinely profitable, as it is truly powerful.
