Chapter 282: Chapter 230: The Pinnacle Realm_2

"The Thunder Beast has absorbed three Mag-Eu Stones, and the electric energy within its body has grown far beyond what I imagined, enough to sustain me in battle for a long while. However... the enchantment ’Wrath of Thunder’ used by this Thunder Ring is too monotonous in its attacks. If I encounter a real enemy, it might not necessarily strike them..."

Su Yu leaned against a nearby stone, deep in thought, realizing that he needed a change in his attacking methods.

"The power of the Golden Blood combined with the strength of the Thunder Beast transforms into golden lightning, and this can double the intensity of the lightning. Golden lightning... Golden Claw... lizard beast transformation state, Tearing Storm... Wrath of Thunder..."

Su Yu was absorbed in his contemplation, considering his current abilities, the close-combat robots he had encountered, as well as the long-range ones. He was unafraid of the former, but what he was lacking now was an effective method to counter the latter type of robot.

’Wrath of Thunder’ was powerful and could be used for long-range attacks, but firstly, its range is limited, and secondly, it requires some time to gather energy for the attack. Compared to the long-range robots which can rapidly fire off artillery without any time delay, ’Wrath of Thunder’s’ long-range attack seemed riddled with drawbacks.

"Boss, what are you thinking about?" Ada, now in his shrunken state, leapt onto Su Yu’s shoulder.

Su Yu’s legs hadn’t completely healed yet and he was leaning back against the ground. He responded absent-mindedly to Ada’s question: "I’m considering how to deal with those long-range attack robots more easily and effectively."

Ada chuckled, "Don’t you have long-range attacking skills too?"

"Hmm?" Struck by Ada’s reminder, Su Yu finally thought of ’Tooth Burst’.

As ’Tooth Burst’ has always been less destructive than ’Tearing Storm’ and other abilities, Su Yu had rarely used it in actual battles. He hadn’t also thought about using ’Tooth Burst’ just now. But after hearing what Ada had said, he remembered ’Tooth Burst’.

With a lift of his right hand, black scales surfaced, and jutting out from them were five white, tooth-like projectiles. With a swing of his arm, the "shoo shoo shoo" sounds of the five ’Tooth Burst’ projectiles rang out as they shot out towards a stone wall in the distance, exploding upon impact, and sending stone debris flying everywhere.

"The impact of ’Tooth Burst’ is just too weak. Even if it hits those long-range robots, it wouldn’t cause significant damage."

Su Yu looked at the faint scorch marks left by the explosions on the stone wall, shaking his head. Ada, perched on his shoulder, let out an "Oh", then jumped off, finding a human corpse and prising a Mystic Treasure Bracelet and a Mystic Treasure Ring off its wrist. He then hopped back to Su Yu, excitedly saying, "Look, see what these two treasures are."

After glancing at the corpse, Su Yu showed little interest, saying, "Probably not much use, otherwise he wouldn’t have met his end together with a single robot."

While speaking, he took a closer look at the items. The bracelet was called "Black Iron Bracelet." It could summon a Black Iron Staff. This staff wasn’t a weapon of attack, but had a special ability—it could enhance the power of special abilities when unleashed. The ring was known as "Flame Ring." It held fire attributes and could be used to cast "Explosive Flame."

Su Yu furrowed his eyebrows slightly. As expected, neither were suitable for his use.

Although the Black Iron Staff that could be summoned by the "Black Iron Bracelet" could amplify the caster’s special power, most of Su Yu’s attack abilities focused on close combat, which made the staff not particularly useful for him. As for the "Flame Ring" with its fire attribute, like the "Earth Spike Ring," for him as he emanates now, it wouldn’t just fail to enhance his power but might even interfere with the usage of his internal Lightning Power.

Stowing away the "Black Iron Bracelet" and "Flame Ring", along with the "Earth Spike Ring" into his waist pouch, Su Yu continued to wrestle with the problem of how to more effectively deal with those long-range robots. Black scales arose on his left arm, pile by pile, and then these scales began lifting. Su Yu lowered his head to watch as the black scales started spinning slowly, increasing their speed. Gradually, a faint vapor cloud began to spray from them.

Using dozens of acupoints within his body, Su Yu drew in the energy from the surrounding air and compressed it into his left palm. Once compressed to a certain limit, he waved his left hand, launching the compressed special power in the form of a "Tearing Storm".

With a mighty "boom", the airborne "Tearing Storm" exploded. As Su Yu’s internal special power became increasingly powerful, the might of this airborne attack also significantly increased. The explosive force of this one aerial strike could now rival the shells fired by the long-range robots.

Ada excitedly cheered, "Right, Su Yu, isn’t this a long-range attack? Why didn’t I see you use it before?"

Su Yu glanced at her, shaking his head, "The distance is too short. Striking an aerial target five or six meters away is already the limit. Against actual enemies skilful in long-range attacks, this move is useless."

After encountering two long-range robots in succession, Su Yu was alerted. His deep thoughts on combating the long-range robots were not solely for the machines, but more for possible future enemies who might be skilful in long-range attacks.

Although Ada believed the robot had nearly the strength of a sixth-order warrior, Su Yu still thought she was overestimating. A real sixth-order Black Iron Warrior was undoubtedly far more terrifying than these robots.

The strength of these robots may be comparable to a sixth-order warrior, but in comparison to real Black Iron Warriors, robots are just robots lacking flexibility and adaptability. Even if they are on par in terms of power, a real sixth-order Black Iron Warrior can surely defeat one of these robots.

No one can be certain that none of the fifty-plus individuals in this round are proficient in long-range attacks, hence Su Yu felt that the most urgent task was to find a countermeasure against long-range attacks.

"Tooth Burst" has long-range and fast attack speed, but its power is too weak. The airborne "Tearing Storm" created by compressed special power has great power but a too short range. Pondering this, a lightbulb went off in Su Yu’s head—what if he combined the advantages of these two abilities?

At this thought, Su Yu immediately lifted his left arm. Five more "Tooth Bursts" emerged from the black scales. Then, Su Yu began manipulating the gasified special power within his body, attempting to compress it into the "Tooth Burst".

If he could compress a large amount of gasified special powers into the "Tooth Burst" and then launch it, the power would definitely increase greatly.

Excited at this thought, Su Yu took out one "Tooth Burst" for experimentation, continuously compressing the special power into it. The amount of compressed special power was getting more and more. Suddenly, with a loud "boom", Su Yu grunted, with black scales sprayin from his left arm and blood dripping everywhere. The "Tooth Burst", in which the special power was overcompressed, unexpectedly exploded right on Su Yu’s arm.

The force of this explosion was extremely powerful. Su Yu’s mutated arm, full of black scales, was blasted with a huge bloody hollow, breaking the bone. He grimaced in pain, hurriedly focusing the gasified special power to initiate healing.

Despite the failure and injury, Su Yu appeared excited. The power of the explosion was certainly not to be underestimated. He’d simply compressed too much gasified special power, which had triggered the explosion. Now, he only needed to reduce the amount of special power being compressed.

With his left arm injured, Su Yu started using his right arm for the experiments. Rapidly, he compressed the gasified special power into the "Tooth Bursts" and shot them out.

With a loud "boom", the "Tooth Bursts" full of compressed special power exploded, and indeed, the power had significantly increased. Su Yu continued trying to find the critical limit of the gasified special power to be compressed, continuously making improvements. Finally, he activated the "Golden Blood" and the powers of the Thunder Beast, even injecting the golden thunder power into the mix.

At this moment, something unfathomable happened. (To be continued. If you want to know what happens next, please visit www.qidian.com. More Chapters are available there and it supports the author. Support legal reading!)
