257: Chapter 257 The team expands again! In-depth exploration of the term!

The completion of the wager almost affected every Professional on the Water Blue Planet.

Especially within the borders of Huaxia.

Those Dungeons that had been challenged together by Zhang Jian, Wang Fei, and the others.

Because the Hell difficulty was directly maxed out to the highest rating, the drops were greatly increased.

For Professionals living locally, it meant that as long as they went to farm the corresponding Dungeons, they gained an Innate advantage.

Not to mention, with the dual BUFF bonuses of [Strive to Catch Up] and [More Work, More Gain].

Leveling up was faster than before.

The drops from killing monsters were also more numerous than before.

Coupled with these two BUFFs related to Zhang Jian, as well as the overall improvement in quests and kills across all maps.

The strength of all Professionals was increasing faster than before.

For those with strong talents, it was even more obvious.

In the major Advanced academies, there were even freshmen appearing who had reached the strength of the third job change.

However.

They had no intention of challenging Hell-level Dungeons to obtain Heavenly Dao rewards for themselves.

There were also some other Prodigies.

Although they already possessed the ability to break through to the third job change, they remained at level 60 or 65, constantly challenging Dungeons that matched their level.

Five days after the System update.

The members of the team where Wang Fei and the others were located collectively broke through to level 80.

After learning the prepared passive skills one by one, the massive amount of experience they had accumulated was enough for them to raise their previously unattainable mythical level skills directly to the max level.

Even for the weakest ones, Instructor Wang Weidong and Ming Li, their total attribute points broke through 20,000.

They could perform strength Fusion.

As for the required Materials.

Under the accumulation of countless Hell-level Dungeon extreme-level ratings.

It was simply not a problem.

Except for the long process, which took three or four days.

It could be said that there were no other difficulties.

All ten people in the team broke through to planet-level strength.

Seven of them were at the second Rank of planet-level.

Wang Fei and Xiao Yun even reached the level of the third Rank of planet-level with a destructive power exceeding 400 points.

At the beginning.

The two of them still felt a bit superior.

They felt they were more powerful than their other brothers.

But when Zhang Jian consumed star core fragments to help them upgrade their respective Heavenly Dao Sword Puppets.

Wang Fei discovered with astonishment.

That his own slight advantage had vanished!

In the Dungeons, the Sword Puppets were the main force.

Especially in situations where epic-grade skills were ineffective and mythical level skill effects were halved.

The scene of relying on one's own attribute suppression and skill coordination to slaughter everything in the Dungeons was gone forever.

Regardless of the profession, everyone was treated equally.

Everyone only played a supporting role.

After experiencing struggle, hesitation, and unwillingness.

Everyone slowly came to terms with it.

And began to treat their bound Heavenly Dao Sword Puppets as real treasures, protecting them well.

They would even avoid problems with the Sword Puppet at the cost of their own injuries.

But even so.

Because their levels were relatively low, the extent to which the Sword Puppets could be improved was limited.

The 10 people divided into two teams to explore separately, and they could at most kill a planet-level third Rank BOSS, which was already their limit.

Fortunately, with the experience provided by Xuan Jizi and the others, they had prior knowledge of many things within the two maps.

When they found that they could not defeat the enemy, they would decisively give up.

Settling for the next best thing, they would sweep the areas they were capable of handling.

Within 24 hours, they did have some small gains.

Although they only obtained a B-grade rating, the cumulative ratings obtained were as many as 50.

After learning about the battle achievements of Xuan Jizi and the others, Wang Fei felt extremely ashamed.

He claimed that the revenue he failed to bring to Brother Jian was too little, and he was sorry for the cultivation provided to them.

After all.

Zhang Jian alone helped them with the strength Fusion of the Sword Puppets to break through to planet-level. In the System prompts they saw, each Sword Puppet consumed as many as 20 star core fragments.

For 10 people, that was 200 fragments.

Right now, these 50 fragments didn't even recover a quarter of the cost.

But Zhang Jian was already very satisfied.

Although the strength of the two teams was not yet strong, by relying on the effect of the 10 Sword Puppets with the [I Am A Soldier] entry.

They had cumulatively provided him with over 500 star core fragments.

He had actually already broken even.

And after repeatedly performing Fusion of Sword Puppets for others and consuming quite a few star core fragments.

The corresponding entry had long since been upgraded.

[Helping Others] (Heavenly Dao-Grade) (+3)

When you use specific items for others, the consumption will be reduced by 10% (+15%).

To improve the entry effect, you still need to: use specific items for others 23/40 times

Although the quantity required to improve this entry was small, it was actually calculated based on the number of uses.

Improving it was not easy.

However, another entry, because synthesizing star cores could also improve it, its progress was constantly climbing.

[Heavenly Dao Reduction] (Heavenly Dao-Grade) (+5)

You have received the attention and protection of the Will of the Heavenly Dao. When you use star core fragments, the requirement is reduced by 20% (+50%).

To improve the entry effect, you still need to: use star core fragments 58297/100000 times

Adding the two together, Zhang Jian thought the consumption reduction could reach 95%.

But when actually using it, the effect was only 90%.

The System prompt was that the entry effect limit had been reached.

The explanation from the Will of the Heavenly Dao was that it was the interference of the Universe's will.

But even so, Zhang Jian was already very satisfied.

He even pondered other uses.

This was also why, after coming out of the Dungeon this time, everyone was lamenting that the harvest of star core fragments was still too little.

If they accumulated faster, they could increase their own attribute points.

If the 20,000-point limit could be maxed out, it would significantly increase combat power.

And while Zhang Jian was occasionally helping Wang Fei upgrade his Sword Puppet, he made an accidental operation error.

A prompt like this appeared.

"Do you want to consume 70,000 (-42,000) star core fragments to add 20,000 free attribute points for [Wang Fei]?"

Zhang Jian almost selected "Yes," but he was a bit confused.

Why was the effect reduced by only 70%?

[Helping Others] didn't take effect?

With a thought, he wanted to adjust the consumption amount.

But he discovered that as long as he couldn't achieve an integer reduction, it wouldn't take effect.

Until.

"Do you want to consume 30 (-21) star core fragments to add 10 free attribute points for [Wang Fei]?"

Although the original consumption of 10 fragments became 30 fragments.

But under the effect of the [Heavenly Dao Reduction] entry, the final consumption was only 9 fragments.

It was even 1 fragment less than if Wang Fei used it himself.

And after Zhang Jian selected "Yes."

The [Helping Others] entry was also successfully activated.

The cumulative consumption reduction also became 90% again.

It's just that each time he used it, it only increased the corresponding progress by 1 time.

Zhang Jian adjusted it repeatedly before finding a suitable quantity.

"You consumed 30 (-27) star core fragments and added 10 free attribute points for [Wang Fei]."

"You consumed 30 (-27) star core fragments and added ... for [Wang Fei]."

"You consumed 30 (-27) star core fragments..."

After using it continuously for more than a dozen times, the entry effect improved again.

[Helping Others] (Heavenly Dao-Grade) (+4)

When you use specific items for others, the consumption will be reduced by 10% (+20%).

Currently effective items: star core fragment

Currently effective scope: Sword Puppet Fusion, attribute point improvement

Maximum limit: 90%

(The excess portion will be converted into a 5% additional improvement effect after reaching 10%, this effect takes effect when it accumulates to 10%)

To improve the entry effect, you still need to: use specific items for others 0/80 times
