Di Wang lay on the sofa, his fingers tapping the armrest unconsciously, his brain working rapidly.
“Although the attribute improvement is tempting, the attribute may only change quantitatively when upgrading from level 1 to level 2, and there will not be a earth-shattering leap.
No matter how high the basic attributes are, before the quantitative change occurs, in front of a truly powerful demon-level or even dragon-level monster, this little improvement may be a drop in the bucket... But the Emperor Engine is different!"
His thoughts became clearer and clearer. "This is a 'force field' type skill! If I raise it high enough, the pressure and sound waves released can instantly make low-level monsters close to me lie down, and even make slightly higher-level monsters stay focused and dare not attack...
Then wouldn't I have a passive amulet similar to the 'Aura of Fear'?
When the enemy is unaware of the truth, this invisible and intangible mental deterrence is much safer and more effective than a direct punch (which doesn't hurt)!"
"More importantly, it matches King's personality better! There is no better way to show off as the 'strongest man on earth' than to scare off the enemy with a single 'Emperor Engine'! A King who can only rush forward and punch like a turtle, just thinking about it... is cheap!"
After figuring this out, Di Wang no longer hesitated.
"Yes! That's it! The essence of deterrence is 'fear', and investing in the 'Emperor Engine' is strengthening the source of fear! First make the brand bigger and stronger, then your survival will be guaranteed and the points will roll in!"
With a thought, he issued a command to the system interface:
[Do you want to invest 200 Deterrence Points to improve the proficiency of the skill 'Emperor Engine'? ]
"Yes!" Di Wang said silently firmly in his heart.
The moment the order was given, an indescribable feeling swept over my whole body!
It was not an enhancement of physical attributes, but a kind of... understanding of "sound" and "momentum", which poured into his brain and heart like a flood!
[Deterrence Points -200]
[Skill: "Emperor Engine" proficiency is improving...]
Immediately afterwards, the heart suddenly contracted and then expanded!
It was not a painful physiological reaction, but it was as if the heart itself had become the core piston of the engine.
Each pumping becomes more powerful and deeper, driving some invisible force to vibrate in the chest cavity!
['Emperor Engine' proficiency increased to 'Minor Success' (0/600)]
[Skill effect update:
1. The first appearance of "Regal Majesty": When the Regal engine is started, the actual sonic impact is significantly enhanced, causing a strong sense of oppression on the minds of ordinary people.
㟧. Solidified 'Aura': The concentration of red aura around the body increases significantly, and the color changes from light red to a more oppressive dark red. The shape is more condensed, like a burning dark flame, with a very strong visual deterrent effect.
3. 'Deterrence' passive (increased): When the host senses strong hostility or murderous intent, it releases shocking sound waves and weak aura. (This passive effect can disturb the attacker to a certain extent and give the host warning time.)
4. Slightly improved mental resistance: During the activation of the Emperor Engine, the resistance to mental attacks (such as fear and confusion) is slightly enhanced. 】
Small success!
Di Wang suddenly sat up from the sofa, his eyes shining.
He raised his hand and pressed it to his chest.
“Boom…boom…boom…”
It was not an active movement, but at the moment he was so excited that his heart was beating low and slow like a drum.
It was no longer just a vibration noise, but some kind of power!
He could even feel that every heartbeat of Shen Xiao caused ripples in the surrounding air!
Although there was no red aura when the engine was running at full power, he seemed to be able to see inside his chest that there was an engine full of surging power waiting on standby!
"Passive effect! This is simply a life-saving artifact!"
Di Wang clenched his fists excitedly, these 200 points were totally worth it!
