Chapter 872: Chapter 412: Supernova Burst, Raiding the Polar Star Association

Lin Xun finished checking the spoils and memories, then opened the panel to browse attributes.

[Shell——Star Favored of the Up-Looking Polar Star Association]

[True Name: Samantha]

[Affinity: 128% (+65%)]

[Shell Quality: Mythical Level (Affinity surpassed the critical point, shell quality improved!)]

[Shell Level: 120]

[Shell Equipment: ’Twilight of the Stars Magic Robe’ (Legendary Grade Armor): ...]

[Shell Skills: ’Hot Star Ray’ (Legend+ Level Skill): ...]

[Shell Skills: ’Twilight of the Stars’ (Mythical Level Skill): ...]

[Shell Skills: ’Meteor’s Light’ (Mythical Level Skill): ...]

[Shell Skills: ’Supernova Burst’ (Mythical Level Skill): ...]

"How come the shell quality isn’t Mythical+ Level?"

"Underworld Game, you’ve screwed me over again!"

Lin Xun had thought that this Star Favored should at least have Mythical level shell quality, which would reach Mythical+ level with his affinity boost, becoming the first top-tier Demigod shell at his disposal.

However, the shell quality clearly stated, after the affinity boost, had only reached Mythical Level.

In other words, the original quality of the Star Favored’s shell was Legend+ Level, a substandard product not even at the Demigod Realm.

After painstaking planning for a long time and finally taking out this Star Favored, he ended up with a substandard shell, Lin Xun was so angry he felt like punching something.

In fact, it wasn’t entirely accurate to call it substandard, seeing as he only had one ’Son of Evil’ shell that was Mythical Level.

With the ’Star Favored’ added to the shell column, and by using the effects of ’Appearance of the Queen Bee’, his output ability could take another leap forward.

Besides, the level of this shell was as high as 120, nine levels above his current level.

Lin Xun used ’The Leader’s Face’ to appoint the Star Favored shell as ’The Leader’.

Immediately the levels of all shells soared, reaching the astonishing level of 120.

"According to the classification of Star Realm Envoys being at Mythical+ Level, it doesn’t make sense for this Star Favored to be only at Legend+ Level..."

"No, that’s not right, Star Favored are Legendary Level, and it makes sense for a Star Favored being higher to be at Legend+ Level... but then wouldn’t that mean there’s a stark power gap between Star Favored and Star Realm Envoys?"

After pondering for a long time, Lin Xun noticed that the skills of the Star Favored were mostly Mythical Level.

Such an attribute panel would only appear on a Mythical Level shell.

Usually, in the game, monsters or plot characters near a breakthrough (cultivation) to the next realm, their skill quality would advance first.

For example, a Ninja Master’s shell quality is Epic+ Level, but it has a Legendary Level skill ’Heartless Ninja Path’.

This is an enhancement from the plot character’s own cultivation, also indicating that this character might potentially break through to the next realm in the future.

But such skill improvements are at most one or two until the shell quality breaks through to the next realm, allowing all skills to gradually reach the current grade through cultivation.

The fact that most of the Star Favored’s shell skills are Mythical Level indicates that the shell’s original quality should also be of Mythical Level...

"I’ve got it, it must be the side effects of the Flesh Authority’s points reset!"

Lin Xun had used the Flesh Authority to temporarily ’enchant’ the ’Eyeball Heart’, reducing the strain this heart puts on the human body for a while, so that the Star Favored wouldn’t die on the spot after the transplant.

But when the ’Eyeball Heart’ gradually began releasing energy and the Flesh Authority could no longer reduce the burden, it took a roundabout way of resetting points to strengthen the body’s endurance, allowing the Star Favored to last a bit longer.

The ’Star Favored’ Lin Xun possessed dropped in shell quality under such passive resetting, becoming a wasted low-level account.

The root cause was his insufficient control over the ’Flesh Authority’, only able to reset points passively under its influence.

This uncontrollable passive resetting even affected the Star Favored, causing the shell quality to drop.

If Lin Xun’s control over the Authority was sufficient, even if he could not actively reset points, he could at least halt the Flesh Authority’s passive resetting on the Star Favored. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"So as long as I continue to improve my control over the Flesh Authority, I can likely reset the points for this shell once more."

"Right, if I use ’Beginning of the Holy Spirit’..."

The Soul Mystery ’Beginning of the Holy Spirit’ can temporarily boost the control over Authority, and the degree of increase wasn’t small. If I use ’Beginning of the Holy Spirit’ again, I should be able to restore this shell to the Mythical rank.

With the affinity breaking through the critical point, I could obtain a top-notch Demigod shell.

"I have to wait until the current soul strength cap is fully restored before I can use Beginning of the Holy Spirit again..."

’Beginning of the Holy Spirit’ requires a temporary consumption of 4 points of soul strength cap, and following the last use, his soul strength has recovered to 3/3.
