CHAPTER 69: Enchantment
With Chen Chu's current strength, he could even slay followers of the three heavens, and when facing the rebel cultivators of the three heavens, he could rely on over a hundred points of agility to maneuver.
Therefore, he did not have an urgent need to enhance his combat power; after all, this small amount of attribute points could not strengthen much.
Instead, he had always been somewhat anxious about his defense.
He feared being targeted by the rebels' sniper rifles, especially those anti-material weapons equipped with armor-piercing rounds that could shoot at several times the speed of sound, capable of penetrating twenty millimeters of steel plating.
If he were locked onto by the enemy during a battle, even if he sensed the danger in advance, he might not be able to react in time.
The two battles he had encountered were manageable, as the enemies had attacked with conspicuous weapons like rocket launchers, and their speed hadn't given the enemy a second chance to shoot.
But what about next time? After all, as new recruits, they were easily targeted first.
Thinking of this, Chen Chu placed his hand on his battle armor, and a voice echoed in his mind, "Consume 2 attribute points to enhance the battle armor."
As Chen Chu's voice fell, the remaining attribute points displayed on his attribute page changed to 6, and at the same time, an invisible force enveloped the black-red battle armor.
Silently, the battle armor appeared slightly darker.
It looked like there was no significant change, but when Chen Chu picked it up, he found that the armor felt 'heavier,' giving him a sense of solidity.
Dong dong!! Chen Chu tapped his fingers on the light armor, producing a low, resonant sound.
However, the effect of enhancing by 2 points wasn't substantial. Chen Chu pondered for a moment and continued in his mind, "Consume all attribute points to enhance the battle armor."
Buzz!
With the enhancement of six attribute points, the air surrounding the armor emitted a faint hum, and a soft glow flickered across its surface.
After this enhancement, the surface of the armor appeared slightly dimmer, giving it a profound feeling. Moreover, the overall internal structure of the armor seemed to have undergone subtle changes.
Fortunately, the appearance hadn't changed much; it just had a faint sense of oppression, a change that seemed quite normal after the bloodshed of recent battles.
While Chen Chu was examining the enhanced armor, two rows of transparent text appeared before his eyes.
"Full-body armor made from ordinary alloy steel wire, current sturdiness attribute +8, a common extraordinary item with decent defensive capabilities.
The surface alloy can resist ordinary sniper bullets, and the internal steel wires can block penetrating projectile wounds. The helmet can withstand sniper armor-piercing attacks."
"Note: Due to material limitations, the sturdiness attribute of this item can be enhanced up to a maximum of 10 points. To further improve its quality, consider infusing advanced materials."
"To think it has directly enhanced into an extraordinary item." A satisfied expression appeared on Chen Chu's face.
The effect of the enhancement did not disappoint him; the body parts could now resist sniper bullets, allowing him to finally stop worrying about being ambushed by snipers.
Moreover, this kind of enhancement resembled enchantment, with minimal change in overall appearance.
At that moment, Chen Chu's gaze turned to the straight knife placed on the table, pondering: "If the defense enhancement effect is so good, what about the knife?"
The characteristics of the F-grade straight knife were that it was sturdy, with sharpness not much different from an ordinary steel knife.
If he enhanced it to the point of cutting through iron like mud, perhaps a careless cultivator of the three heavens might be sliced in half along with their weapon by him.
But this thought was quickly dismissed; Chen Chu shook his head and put it aside.
It was still too early to consider these things. He should first elevate his cultivation to the late stage of the three heavens, and at that time, combined with the continuous physical enhancement provided by his clone, he would belong to the strongest ranks in the three heavens.
