Chapter 545: Chapter 545: The Fire Bomb Bunker that Ascends to the Heavens and Descends into the Earth

Although Fang Jie had determined his goal, he still felt some regret, as there were too few blueprints.

Such large-scale battles were uncommon; if it always took this kind of fight to obtain treasures of this level, then it would be troublesome to acquire these items in the future.

On the other hand, his own equipment was pretty much complete, just standard Legendary Level equipment.

Now that Fang Jie was at Gold Level, he couldn’t yet use equipment of that level.

Previously, he had been able to use higher-level equipment than his own and still harness a certain degree of its power. But with Legendary Level items, that was beyond his capacity. His own strength wasn’t enough; wearing the equipment, he couldn’t even activate it.

But in the future, once his power increased, he would be able to utilize them directly.

Not wanting to think too much about it, Fang Jie directly used the blueprint to upgrade the Fire Bomb Bunker.

Fire Bomb Bunker (Gold): Capable of laying Fire Bombs within a 10-kilometer radius, enemies marked as targets would trigger explosions upon approach. With each deployment, 500 Fire Bombs can be laid out, with a cooldown time of 1 minute, maintaining up to 50,000 Fire Bombs in total. Any excess will automatically disappear after maintaining them for 10 hours.

Floating Bomb: Fire Bombs can be hidden in the air, with the ability to stay concealed.

Energy-gathering Fire Bomb: Multiple Fire Bombs fuse into one Energy-gathering Fire Bomb, possessing a much greater destructive force.

Underground Bunker: The Fire Bomb Bunker can hide underground and can move freely at a certain speed, but cannot leave the range of the building’s territory influence area. It enhances the effect of Hidden Aura and defensive capabilities.

Building requirements: 300 units of Rune Stone Bricks, 200 units of Rune Stone Slab, 800 units of Refined Stone Bricks, 500 units of Refined Stone Slab, 1000 units of Crystal Stone Powder, 10 units of Storage Crystal Stone, 50 units of Fire Element Gem, and 200,000 units of Gold Coins, with stationed troop strength ×5 (Gold).

"The change really is substantial; the transformation has increased so much at once."

Indeed, compared to the Death Energy Tower, which he had been upgrading all this time, it seemed there was no way it could compare to the Fire Bomb Bunker.

Well, given that the Fire Bomb Bunker was a rare and special defensive building to begin with, starting at silver level, a larger degree of transformation seemed justifiable.

Fang Jie began to review from the start, first the deployment radius, which had been directly increased from one kilometer to ten kilometers. The distance was tenfold, which meant an area a hundred times larger, an entirely different level of practical use.

The quantity deployed each time had changed from two hundred to five hundred, an improvement in speed.

However, this speed was only noticeable in real-time combat; the Fire Bombs laid out in advance couldn’t demonstrate this. Whether faster or slower, it was the range that counted, which had changed considerably from before.

The cooldown time remained the same, at one minute.

Therefore, although there was an improvement in real-time combat, the enhancement was not tremendously significant.

But the total number maintained had significantly increased. What was originally a total of 2,000 Fire Bombs was now up to 50,000, an increase by twenty-five times.

This pure combat ability wasn’t as simple as a twenty-five-fold increase.

After the upgrade, the Fire Bomb Bunker produced Fire Bombs with greater power.

The extra Fire Bombs also had an extended duration, increasing from three hours to ten hours. From zero to full deployment, it required 100 minutes, allowing the Fire Bombs to increase their numbers by sixfold in those ten hours.

Perhaps, this was the Fire Bomb Bunker’s true method of use.

After all, this concentration only consumed time, not any resources. All the magic power was condensed by the Fire Bomb Bunker itself, a unique power of functional buildings.

Next were the three new special abilities that had been added, not present before.

These three abilities had taken the Fire Bomb Bunker’s practical application to a new peak.

First was the Floating Bomb; originally, Fire Bombs could only be buried underground, or rather, below the surface, with the battlefield being a flat plane. But now, these Fire Bombs could be laid out in the air.

This meant that the area of defense around the Fire Bomb Bunker had shifted from a plane to a three-dimensional space.

Even aerial enemies could now be struck. Fang Jie even experimented a bit—underground was the same. The Fire Bombs now could float in the air as well as underground.

As long as it was within the ten-kilometer radius, enemies underground could also be attacked.

Originally, Fang Jie was worried about underground enemies and could only counter them with Grave Guardian Demon Spiders and Nether Fire Centipedes, but now he had an additional method.

The second ability, the Energy-gathering Fire Bomb, directly enhanced the power of Fire Bombs.

Fang Jie had tested them; the current Fire Bombs’ power had increased significantly, able to cause substantial damage to Gold Level enemies. But to instantly kill Gold Level enemies was unlikely.

However, the Energy-gathering Fire Bomb was different; up to ten fusing together could shatter some of the weaker Gold Level enemies on the spot, leaving hardly anything behind.

Even the Gold Archer at the peak of his strength would suffer severe injuries if hit without caution.

Of course, for those with strong defenses and resistance, the effect might not be quite as apparent.

Now, the Fire Bombs could slowly change their position at a certain rate, indicating a certain level of proactive attack capability and self-adjustment ability, making it much easier for enemies to fall into the trap.

The last ability allowed the Fire Bomb Bunker to transfer underground.

On one hand, it could hide itself, avoiding destruction by enemies. On the other hand, being mobile meant it could patrol underground, gathering during wars.

The economic pressure Fang Jie originally faced for defense purposes has now been greatly reduced.

Now, this Fire Bomb Bunker could traverse the heavens and burrow into the earth—the change from this level upgrade was truly substantial.

But it was the price that gave Fang Jie a headache. With such costs, wanting to cover his borders would be an indefinitely long endeavor, even nigh impossible—and unnecessary.

The most troublesome part was the staffing troop strength—it had to be Gold Level troops stationed there, and five of them at that.

Even using the cheapest Gold Archers, the financial strain escalated once more.

"Forget it; regardless, the combat power of the Fire Bomb Bunker has improved a lot. It would be good to place some at critical locations in the future. Such intelligent Fire Bomb Bunkers are not a problem to deploy across the territory."

After all, Fire Bombs wouldn’t attack anyone not marked as an enemy, so there was no concern about accidental harm.

As long as there was at least one clever Undead among the five stationed, the flexibility of the Fire Bomb Bunker would be enhanced. With a Hero Unit, the effect it could achieve might be comparable to a decent-sized army.
