Chapter 328: S-Class Secret Realm, The Great Migration Journey.
A Civilization Fragment could add 200 points to his Strength Attribute Value, and he had a total of 18 of them, which meant if he were willing to apply them all to his Strength Attribute Value, he could gain 3600 points.
That's not a lot.
That would just about sustain Hungry Monkey for ten years.
"..."
Chen Miao shifted his gaze away from the system popup and looked at the dozen or so fragments placed on the cabinet, his expression gradually turning bizarre. He had originally thought the 1.7 billion Star Coins were his biggest haul.
Now it seemed that these were his true windfall.
These were priceless, as attribute values were very hard to come by.
Opportunities like what Hungry Monkey had were already quite significant.
He didn't tell Wang Defa that he owned 18 Civilization Fragments, just replied that he knew and after a simple exchange, he then turned his attention to the Civilization Milestone.
So far,
Most civilizations in the universe are F-level.
That includes Great Qin, Blue Star, and the Azure Dragon Civilization, all F-level civilizations.
The grading of F, E, D, and so on is from an external perspective of the universe, whereas gradings such as first-tier, second-tier, third-tier civilizations are the internal evaluation of civilizations in the universe, and when a Civilization Milestone advances again to reach the E level,
It will have what Wang Defa described as the "Civilization Furnace."
The specific effects are unclear, and Wang Defa didn't go into detail either. It didn't seem like a reluctance to tell but more like he didn't know himself.
So far,
All civilization systems within the universe are collapsing and then reorganizing, with many matters progressing through exploration, and at such times the most important thing is the exchange of information between each other.
Without Wang Defa, for instance, he wouldn't have known what use Civilization Fragments serve.
Of course...
Even if he didn't know, he wouldn't have thrown the Civilization Fragments away anyway.
"Awooo."
After briefly pondering, Chen Miao didn't hesitate at all and put a Civilization Fragment into his mouth.
Soon a popup appeared in front of him.
"Ding, you have consumed a Civilization Fragment."
Experience tales with My Virtual Library Empire
"You can freely choose to increase a certain attribute by 200 points."
"Strength, Agility, Resistance."
Still the three most fundamental attributes, Strength determines the upper limit of the body's explosive power and resilience. With a higher Strength Value, the body's ability to resist hits also strengthens a lot; Agility determines a person's movement speed, including how quickly one's eyes can track, and so on.
Resistance is about immunity to control effects.
Without any hesitation,
"Choose Strength."
Then, without pausing, he threw in two more Civilization Fragments, boosting his Agility and Resistance once each. Up to this point, all his Attributes had reached around the 200-mark, with Strength naturally being the highest.
He could be considered a multidimensional warrior now.
Having 18 Civilization Fragments meant that even after consuming 3, he still had 15 left, which was more than enough.
Chen Miao jumped and maneuvered his body mid-air, a trace of surprise flashing across his eyes. The rapid change in body strength made him feel slightly unaccustomed. It wasn't like adding just a point or two to his strength attribute value; such a surge by hundreds of points could easily make someone feel unable to control their own body.
He felt the same way.
The best way was to find his upper limit of explosive strength and let his brain get used to this body.
...
"Miao!"
A battered Hungry Monkey, his face the picture of collapse, knelt on the ground and roared, "This isn't fair, you hit me with the butt of the gun, how could I possibly beat you?!!!"
Onlookers such as Yuan Buping exchanged glances, puzzled. Through 79 days in the secret realm, Hungry Monkey's Strength Attribute Value had swelled to a staggering level.
But... he seemed to be utterly dominated by Miao alone.
"No worries."
Chen Miao replied with a smile and shook his head, "Aren't you wearing boxing gloves too? A butt of the gun doesn't make a difference; I can't use my fists anyway, as you know, 'cause my hidden occupation doesn't let me."
"Come on, another round, I'm still waiting to let off some steam, weren't you just complaining about your strength value rising too quickly? Well, this lets you release that energy."
...
"Quite useful."
After an exhilarating fight in the Octagonal Cage, Chen Miao nodded in satisfaction. Over 200 points in strength were indeed handy; he could now easily take on a few level 30 fighters with his bare strength alone.
That was a downright domination of dimensions.
Of course, it was still different, as Hungry Monkey had merely competed with him in strength value alone without using any skills. Had Hungry Monkey utilized the skills that could amplify damage based on strength value,
The outcome would've been different.
It was like pitting Syndra, a mage with 400 attack power, against a crocodile warrior with 150 attack power in a stand-and-hit fight.
Without skills, the mage surely wins.
But if the warrior used a set of smooth skills, he could easily take down Syndra; of course, if the warrior used skills, it would also be reasonable for the mage to use hers.
In terms of skills,
Hungry Monkey definitely couldn't compare with Chen Miao.
If grandpa is playing a stand-and-hit game with you, you counter with skills. When it comes to skills, grandpa has more than you, right?
...
After the refreshing battle, Chen Miao contentedly returned to his home, ready for rest. He originally planned to rest a bit, but the sudden surge in strength value made him itch to go out and practice some moves with Hungry Monkey.
The intensity was still a bit low.
He hadn't dared to use all his strength,
Fearing he might injure Hungry Monkey too severely, which resulted in him barely breaking a sweat.
