Chapter
In the "Two-in-One Chapter", previously, Xia Lei's floating cannon had only six barrels, but now it had seven. This was also the highest level of this set of equipment.
After the blade light was emitted, the six floating cannons began firing, and the rhythmic sound of "boom, boom" resonated. This sense of rhythm was, at times, akin to a death warrant.
Xia Lei hadn't fought in a long time. Even at Cloud Summit, the core members hadn't seen their essential backbone fight for quite some time... because there was simply no need for Xia Lei to take action herself.
They all knew that Xia Lei's combat ability was strong, but it was just strong. In reality, Xia Lei was much more powerful than many imagined.
She could give away the nine-star evolution potion to others, but Cloud Summit had not just top-level evolution potions; there were far too many resources and various good things.
No matter how selfless Xia Lei was, what she deserved was more than enough to make her powerful, and as a commander and decision-maker, she could choose what suited her best.
This armor was her previous choice, and now it had been upgraded.
The damage coefficient of each attack from the floating cannon was the sum of all her physical attributes, multiplied by her level, resulting in the final power output.
Upgrading from a lower level to purple equipment was certainly not easy.
As for Xia Lei's physical quality... not just her, but several of Ye Zhongming's women had excellent physical qualities, all bolstered by various high-level potions, the reason... cough cough.
Thus, each shot from the floating cannon was extremely powerful, and precisely because of its immense power, it could only fire seven shots.
Xia Lei's bizarre dual blades were the upgraded version of the Sorrowful Howl Dual Slash, also a purple piece of equipment. The blade shadows were a combination of the sword's capabilities.
The abilities of Sorrowful Howl Dual Slash at the blue level were five: Mutual Aid, Shadow Slash, Chaotic Dance, Sorrow Cry, and Tear Spirit.
After upgrading to purple, the attributes of this equipment were enhanced. For example, the passive ability of Mutual Aid, which increased the attack power of knife skills by twenty percent, could now be boosted up to one hundred percent. The duration of Shadow Slash increased from five seconds to ten seconds, with damage doubling from basic attributes.
Chaotic Dance saw the damage of each blade shadow increase from double to triple. The attribute enhancement of Sorrow Cry shifted from a ten percent reduction in durability and five percent increase in power to a similar ten percent increase. Tear Spirit's immunity chance to water attribute attacks rose from thirty percent to fifty percent.
In addition, two new abilities were added: one was Faceting.
This ability altered the appearance of the blades, making them look somewhat heavy from the outside. However, when attacking together, they would produce a doubling effect on attack speed, changing the damage type from sharp damage to energy damage.
The seventh ability was Mind Control. This ability complemented Faceting, allowing the user to control the durability of the dual blades during battle. Simply put, it was a preparation for Sorrow Cry, allowing the dual blades' thickness to disappear, reducing durability, to achieve an effect that could increase power at any moment.
Earlier, Xia Lei used her Mind Control ability to reduce the durability to ten percent, increasing her power by ninety percent. The subsequent attacks, under the effects of Shadow Slash and Chaotic Dance along with her blade skills, unleashed an incredibly fierce assault.
The blade lights struck the green-skinned demon. While they couldn't directly slay the beast with its tough skin and sturdy flesh, they tore open its hide, leaving the creature covered in wounds, especially in the chest and abdomen area. Having already been injured by the earth yellow pill earlier, it was now severely hurt.
But just as things were looking grim, the first shot from the floating cannon landed directly there, sending the green-skinned demon flying backward. The second, third... until the sixth shots struck its body. By the time it hit the ground, the green-skinned demon was already gravely wounded, with large chunks of flesh missing.
