Chapter 362: Chapter 246 Unexpected Surprise

The Morning Star Ring, one of the seven Eternal Star Rings, is a symbol of life. Those who wore it were not only immune to all poisoning effects but also possessed double the recovery power.

Zhang Xiaoman had never thought he would ultimately give this ring to the girl Lin Sisi.

It’s not that he was reluctant to bestow benefits on her; if she truly became his other half in life one day, then what’s a Star Ring that he couldn’t give her?

On the contrary, Zhang Xiaoman had once considered giving the girl another ring—the Bright Star.

Opposite to the Dark Star Ring, the Bright Star, with its Lord of Light ability, allowed the wearer to track down anything they wanted to track.

In other words, with it, perhaps Lin Sisi could see the world anew in another way.

Since there had been no suitable method to treat the girl’s blindness, Zhang Xiaoman had once set his sights on this ring.

Perhaps with its help, the girl could truly regain her vision?

However, now, due to another turn of events, Zhang Xiaoman could only give her the Morning Star Ring, which symbolized life. As things stood, it seemed this was the only way to save her.

Indeed, that was the case. As the Morning Star Ring slid onto Lin Sisi’s fingertip, Zhang Xiaoman saw her complexion visibly shifting at a noticeable speed.

Her lips, which had started to turn purple, recovered as well. Although she still looked frail, her body functions no longer deteriorated and even showed some signs of improvement.

"It worked!"

Zhang Xiaoman felt joy in his heart. At the same time, he felt a strange sensation flowing from the North Star Ring in his hand throughout his body.

He knew that as the Morning Star Ring’s binding was activated, the passive ability of the North Star had also taken effect, meaning he now also possessed the passive ability of the Morning Star—doubled recovery and immunity to toxins.

Furthermore, Zhang Xiaoman could distinctly feel the changes in his body; it was remarkable. Although he had been prepared beforehand, the outcome still far exceeded his expectations.

Firstly, in terms of physical strength, after the activation of the Morning Star Passive, Zhang Xiaoman could clearly feel he had more energy, even leading him to the erroneous belief that he could go on without sleep or rest from now on.

He knew this was due to the activation of double physical recovery from the Morning Star Passive, which he had figured from the start.

However, beyond that, another effect took him by surprise, or rather, delight.

According to Zhang Xiaoman’s perception, it wasn’t just his physical recovery rate that had increased; along with it, his Dark Energy recovery speed had also significantly improved.

And this increase was not just slight; compared to before, it was a world of difference.

Previously, according to a normal person’s recovery rate, it was a fixed ten hours to fully replenish Dark Energy, which is 600 minutes.

Now, with the Morning Star Passive, Zhang Xiaoman’s own recovery time was immediately halved, dropping from 600 minutes to 300 minutes.

Then, because he had used a Fourth-Order Starry Stone just before, within one hour, he would once again see a 100% increase in recovery speed.

And according to earlier tests, this increased recovery rate was on top of the already amplified base.

That meant Zhang Xiaoman’s replenishment speed went from 300 minutes to just 150 minutes in an instant.

Yet, there was still more to come.

The Morning Star Passive, originally thought to only enhance personal recovery effects, turned out to also enhance the effects of equipped items and buffs, making the benefits of the Fourth-Order Starry Stone double instead of just a single increase!

In other words, it now took Zhang Xiaoman only 100 minutes to fully recover his Dark Energy!

If he also put on the Polar Star Robe, that number would improve again on this basis, which meant he would only need about 33 minutes to fully replenish his Dark Energy!

minutes! This was an astonishing figure given Zhang Xiaoman’s current Dark Energy cap of 208 points, he was recovering more than 6 points per minute!

It could be said that his sustained combat capability had been tremendously strengthened. He wouldn’t need to constantly use Starry Stones to farm Dark Energy anymore.

Of course, such speed still depended on his equipment, and it wasn’t his usual attribute.

Zhang Xiaoman had to wear the robe and apply the enhancements from the Starry Stones to achieve this ideal state.

It was only at this moment that he realized what the phrase "all recovery effects are doubled" in the Morning Star Passive truly meant.

At first, Zhang Xiaoman even thought this recovery was a rather useless passive skill, nothing more than something that could turn 100 health into 200 while eating a Baozi.

However, it seemed that things were not at all what he had imagined them to be.

He even felt a bit of regret, wishing he had activated this passive skill earlier. If so, his efficiency in researching Dark Energy would have increased exponentially.

All of this, Zhang Xiaoman realized in just a few seconds after putting on the ring, as his Dark Energy surged rapidly, helping him understand the cause.

One could say that his gains today were truly an unexpected delight.

This also involuntarily led him to ponder the other rings, each ring’s effect seemed worth careful consideration and not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

Meanwhile, Lin Sisi, upon wearing the Morning Star Ring, was also seeing her vitality gradually recover.

One must not underestimate the double speed of recovery. Compared to an individual’s life, this was definitely a capability that broke the bonds of life, and one might even call it a form of evolution.

"Uh... Where am I..."

With a tired murmur, Lin Sisi gradually regained consciousness from her stupor.

Although she had now escaped the threat of poisoning and death, her physical condition was still quite severe, and she remained in poor shape.

Her face was as pale as paper, devoid of color, and the fact that she could barely wake up was already miraculous.

Zhang Xiaoman didn’t hesitate for a moment and quickly handed over the Six Sunflower he was holding.

"Sisi, quickly eat this. Your current physical state is very dangerous, but eating this should help you recover."

"Ah...?"

Lin Sisi was momentarily startled and then shook her head with difficulty.

"Brother Xiao Man, don’t... Don’t waste the herbs... I’m poisoned... Eating these..."

Seeing her weakened state, Zhang Xiaoman quickly interrupted:

"Silly girl, it’s alright now. I’ve neutralized your poison. Eat this quickly, then get out of here first. Leave the rest to me."

As he spoke, he brought the Six Sunflower to the girl’s lips. This time, she didn’t refuse and obediently opened her mouth, swallowing the small flower with effort.
