fantasy novels Chapter 85 Astonishing Speed
Chapter 85 Astonishing Speed
A third-tier sword technique with 0% power can increase the strength of a second-tier martial artist by 100%, while the second-tier S-rank martial art, the Thunderous Sword Technique, can increase it by 120%.
The combined effect of the two was something Jiang Chen couldn't even imagine; it must be absolutely terrifying!
Even without personally testing it, Jiang Chen could feel that his strength had reached an unprecedented level.
If he were to face that eight-clawed abyss monster again now, he was confident he could kill it with ease!
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, and continued to focus on practicing his swordsmanship.
...
Thirteen hours later, Jiang Chen checked his attribute panel again.
Your second-tier Thunderous Blade Technique has increased from 52.02% to 52.852%.
Your Tier 3 swordsmanship has increased from 0.605% to 1.062%.
Your Tier 3 Agility has increased from 0% to 0.457%.
Upon seeing these figures, Jiang Chen's mood instantly plummeted.
The efficiency is just too low!
The second-tier Thunder Blade Technique improved by 0.8%. At this rate, it can improve by about 2% per day, which is not bad.
However, in terms of skill level, it only improved by a mere 0.4%, which is ridiculously slow!
To put it bluntly, it's because they lack talent.
Each time a new level is reached, the rate of improvement in strength slows down significantly due to insufficient comprehension.
"If I were a peerless genius, and with this kind of effort, I could probably master a third-tier skill in just a few days..."
Jiang Chen shook his head with a wry smile, his heart filled with helplessness.
He knew full well that with his talent, he was destined to be no match for those geniuses.
To reach the top, you have to work ten or even a hundred times harder than the average person!
.......
Although staying online for 32 consecutive hours (16 hours in reality) put a lot of mental pressure on him, Jiang Chen only felt slightly tired after leaving the virtual world.
Because his mental level has reached the second-tier maximum level.
Among the geniuses in this training camp, they are all top-notch.
Even so, Jiang Chen dared not slack off in the slightest.
Because he knew that the geniuses in this training camp were only from Jiangnan Province.
The gap between him and those true geniuses is widening as his level of understanding increases.
Only by working harder and putting in more effort than them can we make up for our innate shortcomings and catch up with those who are far ahead.
There is a long way to go.
Jiang Chen wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, his eyes gleaming with determination.
"Even if you lack natural talent, you can make up for it with hard work!"
Inside the lounge, Jiang Chen's gaze fell on the points ranking display screen.
[First place: Tan Ji, 4800 points!]
Second place: Situ Guiyi, 3750 points!
[Third place: Jiang Chen, 2910 points!]
[Fourth place: Mu Chao, 2600 points!]
......
Because Jiang Chen failed to kill any alien race members and gain points in two days, Situ Guiyi finally surpassed him in the rankings, and Jiang Chen has now fallen to third place.
Although Mu Chao, who is in fourth place, is still far behind Jiang Chen in terms of points, the gap is constantly narrowing.
However, Jiang Chen did not intend to give them that chance.
He slowly got up, stretched his body which was stiff from not moving for a long time, and then picked up the nutritional meal next to him to quickly replenish the energy consumed throughout the day.
Picking up his knife, Jiang Chen strode out of the lounge.
The moment he stepped out of the lounge, Xu Zhe and the others immediately received the news.
"I thought he was going to stay in his room and rest and not come out," Niu Chao said with some surprise.
Diao Wa nodded: "He just went through a big battle, so it's normal for him to take a rest. Besides, his points are guaranteed to advance, so I guess he's not in a hurry."
"But isn't this too long of rest? He's been resting in his room for two whole days without even leaving the room?" Niu Chao frowned, then continued, "He can advance with enough points, but doesn't he plan to compete for first place?"
Niu Chao looked at Jiang Chen's figure on the monitor, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes.
Not only him, but even Xu Zhe was slightly disappointed.
Although she said the day before yesterday that Jiang Chen could arrange his training freely and didn't need to follow the training camp completely, it's a bit unreasonable to let him rest for two days straight.
Xu Zhe shook her head, thinking: Let him be. As long as the final result is that Jiang Chen reaches the strength of a second-level ultimate martial artist and then resolves the scourge of the Maggot King.
She can ignore the rest.
Just then, Diao Wa suddenly spoke up: "Look, Jiang Chen has gone out."
Xu Zhe and the others checked the surveillance footage and, sure enough, saw Jiang Chen carrying a knife as he left the fortress.
What are they trying to do?
Go kill the Abyss Clan?
But it's already 8 PM. Even if we're going to kill the Abyss Clan, we should wait until tomorrow during the day.
It's a bit dangerous to go out now.
The group looked at each other, seemingly unable to understand Jiang Chen's intentions.
In the surveillance footage, Jiang Chen's figure darted quickly through the darkness, indicating that he was indeed heading to the battlefield to kill the Abyss Clan.
Suddenly, Diao Wa pointed at the screen and exclaimed, "Look at the data displayed here! Is there a bug? How could Jiang Chen's speed be so fast!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhe and the others immediately focused their attention on the monitoring data.
The next moment, everyone was stunned!
Jiang Chen's speed was simply unbelievable!
The screen showed that Jiang Chen's average speed was an astonishing 300 meters per second!
It's 25% faster than when we fought the Octopus Abyss Monster before!
Moreover, this is just the average speed while traveling, not Jiang Chen's fastest speed.
If the average speed is already 300 meters per second, then the top speed must be terrifying!
Keep in mind, at most two days have passed since the octopus was killed!
In just two days, the speed increased by 25%! That's incredible!
Is this even human?!
It's terrifying to think about!
For a moment, everyone was stunned and speechless.
Xu Zhe took a deep breath, the shock in his heart still overwhelming him.
Such a rapid increase in speed is simply beyond everyone's imagination!
What exactly did Jiang Chen do in the lounge these past two days?
Why has there been such tremendous progress?
Wasn't he resting?
How could the speed increase so dramatically!
Could it be...?
Everyone was filled with questions.
Meanwhile, Jiang Chen had already penetrated deep into the heart of the battlefield.
He moved with the speed of the wind and the agility of lightning, swiftly traversing the darkness in search of the Abyss Clan.
Soon, one after another, members of the Abyss Clan appeared in Jiang Chen's field of vision.
A cold glint flashed in Jiang Chen's eyes as he slowly drew the blade from its sheath.
"It's time to show you my newfound power!"
Jiang Chen sneered, his figure suddenly accelerated, and he rushed towards the Abyss Clan.
