Chapter 335: Chapter 222 My Growth, Far Beyond You!_2
At this rate, only up to three bars of health would be consumed per minute.
Even at the original pace of recovering thirty bars of blood every five minutes, it would be impossible to kill Jiang Chen!
“Spending six days…”
“Not only did you accumulate a great deal of attributes, but you even mastered some sort of Legendary power that accelerates the recovery of Life Force, huh?”
“As expected of a Despair-level genius mecha pilot, such a rate of growth is truly terrifying.”
The recovery speed demonstrated by Jiang Chen was excessively exaggerated.
The Flesh Host regarded it as a sort of Legendary Trait that strengthens Life Force—
Merely six days time, and he has gained yet another Legendary Trait?
3rd Rank, triple Legendary?
It is as terrifying as ever!
While the Flesh Host was shocked, it also understood Jiang Chen’s intentions.
“A Legendary power that enhances Life Force recovery can easily be masked by the vibrant Life Force, making it rather secretive, not easily noticeable by me.”
“So, you secretly acquired this Legendary power, trying to evade my perception, to challenge the Flesh Puppet across ranks—”
“Planning to use the power of immortality, to recreate the last battle, and literally wear the Flesh Puppet down to death.”
“Thus, to gain again the benefits of challenging formidable enemies?”
The Flesh Host sighed internally.
One had to admit, Jiang Chen’s plan had a very high chance of success.
As long as he could ensure his own survival and succeed in challenging the Flesh Puppet.
Then, he would inevitably achieve victory—
That is, the Infinite challenge has no time limit.
Before the challenge, one could choose to fight or not to fight.
However, once the challenge begins, there is only one outcome.
Victory or death.
Under such circumstances, as long as Jiang Chen possessed the ability of immortality, he could use almost endless time to challenge the Flesh Puppet.
It wouldn’t even take that long in reality.
He could sharpen his [Extreme Battle Soul] and the [Void Trait] during combat, rapidly growing—
But the Flesh Puppet is different.
Even though it too has a high recovery rate, it has no growth potential, its strength forever fixed at the stage of its creation.
Sooner or later it would be defeated by Jiang Chen.
“Pity…”
“The same tactics won’t work on me twice!”
The Flesh Host felt a surge of pleasure.
In his last battle defeating the Flesh Puppet, Jiang Chen relied on his strong recovery abilities.
And he even arrogantly dubbed himself “immortal.”
Attributes were thrown in its face; how could the Flesh Host not make some countermeasures?
Therefore, when the Flesh Host was formulating the second Flesh Puppet, it specifically selected [Fearsome Tiger] and [Sea Whale], these two distinct Legendary Overlords.
The Sea Whale possesses the power to absorb energy from the surrounding environment to replenish its own stamina and Life Force—
[Whale Suction]
When Jiang Chen fights, it is almost a frenzy of blood.
The surrounding environment was nearly dyed red, with crimson storms everywhere.
The Flesh Puppet merely needed to perform one Whale Suction to absorb the Life Force from these blood materials into its body, completely digesting them.
You say you have a lot of blood?
Let me use it too!
The Fearsome Tiger has the ability to temporarily empower itself by absorbing the Life Force of its enemies—
[Bloodsucking]
Normally, it would need to tear at the enemy, consuming flesh and blood to enhance its attributes.
But in combination with the Sea Whale, once it absorbs Jiang Chen’s Life Force, it can gain a boost in strength.
The more it absorbs, the more the power attributes increase.
This is the [Blood Battle Suit] specially prepared by the Flesh Host!
Jiang Chen recovers quickly and can keep fighting?
Good!
It wants to see just how long Jiang Chen can last!
“What does it matter if you’re immortal?”
“Under the Fearsome Tiger’s Bloodsucking state, the Flesh Puppet can increase its temporary strength by 0.5% every minute…”
“It only needs a little over a day to reach the maximum 1000% strength enhancement!”
Although the tenfold temporary strength provided by [Bloodsucking] is similar to the fourfold temporary overall attribute boost provided by the Legendary Trait [Flesh Control],
they belong to the same multiplier category, added together.
However, it can be multiplicative with other Legendary Traits that increase attack power.
Which means…
In just a little over a day’s time,
The Flesh Puppet’s attack power will become three times its original!
Jiang Chen wishes to rely on his recovery abilities to slowly refine his own traits and wear down the Flesh Puppet?
This was absolutely impossible.
“In the end, I am still one step ahead.”
“Just die obediently here.”
The Flesh Host was well aware that mecha pilots also possessed resurrection abilities.
However, this type of resurrection ability was different from that of the Infinite Purgatory and had a limited number of uses.
Jiang Chen was a mecha pilot from a nascent civilization and might not have mastered this ability— and even if he had, the number should be few.
Spending even once would be a huge blow!
At this moment, the Flesh Host was feeling pleased, patiently observing the battle in the Deathmatch Arena.
A minute passed.
Bloodsucking took effect, the Flesh Puppet’s temporary strength +0.5% (50 million).
Two minutes passed.
Bloodsucking took effect, the Flesh Puppet’s temporary strength +50 million.
The talent took effect, Jiang Chen’s overall attributes permanently increased by 225 million, with a recovery speed of +75 million per second.
Flesh Host: “?”
Wait, what just happened?!
How did Jiang Chen’s attributes suddenly soar, especially his recovery rate, which received an exaggerated boost!
Originally, the Flesh Puppet could still make a dent in the total health bar.
Now, Jiang Chen’s recovery rate has directly surpassed his output rate.
Even before the Infinite Core’s recovery effect took hold, the health bar quickly returned to full.
Directly turning the Flesh Puppet’s two minutes of effort into naught.
The health level firmly stuck at full.
“Competing with me for growth?”
All three of Jiang Chen’s heads bared their ferocious white teeth simultaneously.
Indeed, the Flesh Puppet’s continuously increasing strength had surprised him…
But it was just a hint of surprise.
After all…
The Flesh Puppet’s +50 million [temporary strength] per minute, since it couldn’t stack with Flesh Control, only felt like an increase of 10 million [True Strength] in actuality.
Converted down, every 30 minutes, it could increase by 300 million [True Strength].
What about Jiang Chen?
Zero was at home, consolidating attributes, triggering the talent every 30 minutes, increasing 225 million overall attributes and 75 million recovery speed.
Such permanent base attribute increases naturally belonged to [true attributes].
They could stack with any ability, any module for computation.
“Sorry, my growth far exceeds yours!”
Flesh Host: “…”
It was calculating numerical values, abilities, combat strength…
In that instant, it didn’t know how many rounds it had calculated, assuring itself the Flesh Puppet could definitely win.
And then…
Did Jiang Chen just fucking cheat?!
In just two minutes, he had gained so much in overall attributes…
With the realm of the Flesh Host, a single glance was all it needed to determine the difference between temporary and true attributes.
And Jiang Chen’s increase was in permanent attributes!!
“? This rate of growth wasn’t mentioned in the data provided by the Divine Lord Civilization!”
Even the terrifying consciousness of the Flesh Host became a bit disordered because of this scene.
In Gluttony Purgatory, countless fleshes uncontrollably gave birth to consciousness, sprouting numerous tentacles and sharp teeth, devouring and digesting the ghosts.
Fortunately, the Flesh Host quickly came back to its senses and regained control of its consciousness.
“This sort of growth from Jiang Chen isn’t the first time it’s occurred.”
“In previous battles, his body in the real world occasionally reflected strength, contributing to his growth.”
“However, each time the growth was only by ten million attributes, and the interval was about two and a half hours.”
The Flesh Host gradually calmed down.
Although it didn’t know why, Jiang Chen’s growth figure had multiplied by more than twenty times.
But growing every two minutes was too exaggerated, impossible.
According to the usual pattern, the next attribute growth should be two and a half hours later…
Considering the increase in numbers, the interval for growth should be even longer.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t make sense.
“If it’s a two and a half hour interval…”
“Although it’s a bit tricky, the Flesh Puppet will ultimately be able to win.”
The Flesh Host silently watched the interior of the arena.
…
Thirty minutes later.
Bloodsucking took effect, the Flesh Puppet’s “True Strength” +300 million.
The talent took effect, Jiang Chen’s overall attributes permanently increased by 225 million, every second recovery speed by +75 million.
Flesh Host: “Come on, you’re really fucking cheating?!”
