Chapter 074 Immunity and Death Mark!
With a thought, Su Yu immediately activated the diamond-level equipment upgrade stone in his backpack.
He directly spent three diamond-grade equipment upgrade stones to upgrade the Brilliant Shoulder Armor to the Star level.
【Radiant Shoulder Armor (Star-Tier)】
[Area: Shoulder pad]
[Level: 10 (grows every 5 levels, maximum level 50)]
[Attributes: Health +1000, Physical Defense +50, Magic Defense +50, Constitution +50]
[Trait: Physical Defense +10%, Magic Defense +10%]
[Equipment Skill: Brilliant Light]
[Equipment Requirements: Level 10, Soul Bound to Yu Huang.]
【Radiant Light: Equipment Skill. When affected by negative status effects below Silver Moon level, there is a 35% chance to trigger immunity, granting immunity to all negative status effects below Silver Moon level for the next 4 seconds.】
"The improvement is even greater than I expected." Su Yu nodded in satisfaction.
After the Brilliant Shoulder Armor is upgraded to the Star level.
Not only can it grant immunity to negative status effects below Silver Moon level, but the probability of triggering immunity is also increased by 5%.
Even the duration of the subsequent immunity to negative status was extended by one second.
In addition to the enhanced equipment skills, the Brilliant Shoulder Armor has two more traits, increasing both defenses by 10%.
Although it doesn't significantly boost Su Yu's combat power, it's still a valuable percentage-based attribute, so it's not a bad deal.
Suddenly, a white beam of light descended from the sky.
As the white light dissipated, a total of twenty gold-level bloodthirsty cat demon commanders appeared in Su Yu's sight.
"Things are going to get complicated from this floor onwards," Su Yu sighed helplessly.
The Gold-level Bloodthirsty Cat Demon Commander has a whopping 120 million HP.
Although they lack the Abyss Enhancement status, they are weaker than the Gold-tier Bloodthirsty Cat Demon Grand Commander in the Dark Forest Deep Dungeon.
However, with a whopping 120 million health points, it would take Su Yu at least two Lightning Arrows to kill him.
More importantly, if Lightning Bolt cannot kill monsters instantly, its damage output will drop drastically.
Each jump of the electric arc reduces its damage by 4%, eventually dealing only tens of thousands of damage.
From this level onwards, Su Yu could no longer pass the level as easily as before.
A desperate counterattack!
Soul-Severing Arrow!
Su Yu drew his longbow to a full moon, and four green Soul-Severing Arrows shot through the air in an instant.
Since Lightning Arrow can't kill it instantly, let's use Soul Severing Arrow to finish it off.
boom! boom! boom!
-901220! (Critical Hit)
-901220! (Critical Hit)
……
In an instant, the health of a Gold-level Bloodthirsty Cat Demon Commander was wiped out.
[Successfully defeated the level 10 Bloodthirsty Cat Demon Grand Commander (Gold-level BOSS). No experience points are currently gained, but silver coins +45 and skill points +1.]
call out!call out!call out!
Su Yu's arrows flew continuously, one after another like a storm.
-187380! (Critical Hit)
-187380! (Critical Hit)
……
With just four arrows, Su Yu reduced the life value of a Gold-level Bloodthirsty Cat Demon Commander to below 600,000.
Lightning Bolt!
With a thought, Su Yu sent a lightning arrow flying through the air, instantly killing the lowly Gold-level Bloodthirsty Cat Demon Commander.
Zi la la!
Arcs of electricity leaped wildly.
In an instant, the health of at least ten Gold-level Bloodthirsty Cat Demon Commanders dropped to below two-thirds.
After all, each of the first ten electric arcs could cause hundreds of thousands of damage.
Su Yu moved and attacked simultaneously.
The basic attack targets monsters that have lost health but still have more than 600,000 HP.
The Soul-Severing Arrow targets monsters that are still at full health, killing them instantly with a single shot.
Lightning Bolt is used to finish off low-health enemies.
Under Su Yu's deliberate control, the second lightning arrow instantly depleted the health of ten monsters.
Instantly reduced the cooldown of Lightning Bolt to 0.5 seconds.
Before long, all twenty of the Gold-level Bloodthirsty Cat Demon Commanders were killed by Su Yu's arrows.
The entire battle was conducted smoothly and took less than six seconds.
[Successfully cleared the 37th floor of the Tower of New Player Trials, earning 370 completion points.]
"It's alright, not too troublesome." Su Yu's lips curled up slightly.
As long as you manage the health of each monster well, you can still kill quite a few monsters with a single lightning arrow.
Although it's not as satisfying as an instant kill, it can still significantly improve Su Yu's monster-killing efficiency.
A single lightning bolt can cause at least tens of millions of damage.
If converted to normal attacks, it would require at least fifty or sixty attacks.
"The battle just now was too short, and only one layer of the Death Mark was applied. We still don't know if the Brilliant Shoulder Armor can truly grant immunity to the Death Mark." Su Yu shook his head helplessly.
The Brilliant Shoulder Armor has only a 35% chance of granting immunity to negative status effects.
This is only the first sign of death, so it's normal for immunization to fail. The key is to see if there are any successful cases of immunization later on.
Soon, Su Yu was automatically teleported to the thirty-eighth floor.
Before long, a total of thirty gold-level bloodthirsty cat demon commanders appeared in Su Yu's sight.
"Using the final boss of a hellish difficulty dungeon as a regular mob, only the Tower of Trials for beginners could pull that off," Su Yu laughed.
He initially thought the monsters in the Novice Trial Tower were weak, but now it seems he underestimated it.
After all, the bosses outside are treated like mobs here, so just how strong are the bosses here?
Suppressing his curiosity, Su Yu stopped thinking about it and decisively launched a counterattack, unleashing a fierce attack on the monster not far away.
Soul-Severing Arrow!
call out!call out!call out!
Su Yu unleashed a barrage of arrows, raining down on the monster in the distance like a whirlwind.
-187380! (Critical Hit)
-187380! (Critical Hit)
……
About three seconds later.
"Not bad, not bad. The Brilliant Shoulder Armor is indeed immune to the Mark of Death." Su Yu nodded in satisfaction.
Just now, the Tower of Novice Trials applied a death mark to him, but the Brilliant Shoulder Armor made him immune to it.
"It seems I can prepare to upgrade my Holy Silver Battle Helmet at any time," Su Yu thought to himself.
Since the Death Mark can be immune to by the Brilliant Shoulder Armor, it means that it is just a normal negative status, so it can most likely be purified by the Holy Silver Helmet as well.
The Holy Silver Helmet's equipment skill can purify all negative status effects on the user, and can be used to clear the Death Mark.
However, Su Yu did not plan to advance to the Holy Silver Helmet now, as he might not even need the purification skill later on.
As Su Yu pondered this, his hands never faltered.
He quickly killed all thirty Gold-level Bloodthirsty Cat Demon Commanders on the thirty-eighth floor.
[Successfully cleared the 38th floor of the Tower of New Player Trials, earning 380 completion points.]
