Superpower Mechanic: I Have Unlimited Ammo! novel Chapter 108

Chapter 108: Chapter 108: Turbulent Undercurrents

Everyone looked at Li Haotian with curiosity.

Li Haotian nodded, "I heard a goblin named Gulu mention it. Speaking of which, this Skeleton King’s Ring is somewhat related to my advanced awakening task this time."

"After Gordan was tempted by the demons, he tried to summon them, but the power of the demons was too strong to descend upon Azeroth due to spatial blockade."

"So, he lent the power of his trusted war general, the Skeleton King, to Gordan, helping him create the Death Knight Legion."

"At the same time, he also bestowed this ring to Gordan, allowing him to plunder more life energy and build an altar to summon the demons to the Azeroth Continent."

"But while chasing the Beastman chieftain Grom, Gordan accidentally lost the ring and somehow, it ended up flowing from the Horde side to the Alliance area."

These were the things that Li Haotian learned later when Gulu and he were invited by Grom after they dealt with Gordan.

At that time, Grom was very grateful, saying that if Gordan hadn’t lost that ring, he might have been wiped out by Gordan long ago.

Jiangwu Youyou curiously asked, "So, you know the effect of this ring?"

Li Haotian smiled and nodded, "That’s right, Grom told me about it."

"Not to mention the basic attributes, the key is that this ring’s effect is indeed powerful, it increases counter damage by 50%!"

This left Wang Qingfeng and the others amazed.

Counter damage?

What’s this new term?

In all known epics on the Blue Star, such an effect as "counter damage" has never appeared before?

Li Haotian explained, "I didn’t know at first either. But later, I heard Grom say that the so-called counter damage means as long as the enemy makes any move, and your attack lands on them, it counts as counter damage."

"Any move?"

Ling Xuehan murmured and then asked, "What if they don’t move, but just activate a defensive shield?"

Li Haotian confirmed, "That also counts as making a move!"

Jiang Zhen was bewildered, "Even that counts? Then what counts as not making any move at all?"

Li Haotian shrugged and said, "Standing still without any defense, that’s what counts as no movement."

Jiangwu Youyou was speechless, "During a battle, who would stand still and do nothing, not even taking defensive measures? Wouldn’t that just make them a sitting duck?"

Jiang Zhen couldn’t help but take a deep breath, "So what you’re saying is, as long as you wear this ring and attack, it’s essentially like constant counter damage, always having a 50% damage increase?"

"Exactly, according to what Grom said, that should be the case." Li Haotian clicked his tongue in admiration.

Back when he heard this, he marveled at how lucky the Beastman Clan really was.

Gordan’s Death Knight Legion already had combat power and numbers far exceeding those of Grom’s Beastman warriors.

If they had an additional 50% damage boost, Grom would stand even less of a chance to resist.

Ling Xuehan’s eyes were sparkling, "No wonder it’s ranked as a treasure-level item, this Skeleton King’s Ring is indeed a rare piece of top-quality equipment!"

"Not only is it universal equipment usable by physical and magical professions alike, but the effect determination is also so dominant. For ordinary professions wearing it is already a huge boost, but for Haotian, it would truly be taking off!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhen and the others all shivered.

Indeed!

Li Haotian’s means of attack are superpower weapons, so with this ring, the 50% counter damage would affect all superpower weapons.

Du Guyan’s numbed gaze instantly snapped back to reality, and she looked down at the affiliated scroll on the bed with a venomous look in her eyes and roared inwardly:

"Li Haotian! You worthless Illusion God profession, what gives you the right to enter Qinghua Academy! And what gives you the right to become Jiang Zhen’s apprentice!"

"Just wait! I will find the Bone Ring, and use it as a means to exchange for a chance to kill you!"

...

In Four Symbols City, at the Yuan Family Mansion.

Yuan Ting’s father, Yuan Tiangang, sat gloomily in the living room, waiting quietly.

Moments later, a man in black entered.

"Patriarch, our people are ready."

Yuan Tiangang lifted his head, eyes filled with vicious intent, nodded slightly, then said in a deep voice, "You may leave for now."

"Yes, Patriarch."

After the man in black left, Yuan Tiangang dialed an encrypted video call: "Chairman Bruno, we’re prepared to head in."

"Good. Once inside, meet up at the place I told you. I’ll give you the Sound Transmission Worm."

"If Li Haotian really entered the otherworld, once you locate him, inform us immediately. We’ll handle what follows and ensure Li Haotian doesn’t return!"

Yuan Tiangang said darkly, "Not just Li Haotian, if Jiang Zhen and Jiangwu Youyou are present, I want them dead too!"

"Sure, no problem!"

Only then did Yuan Tiangang slowly nod, "See you inside then."

With a "click," Yuan Tiangang hung up the call, the malicious intent in his eyes growing stronger.
