Global Composite Master: Compositing an Undead Army from the Start

"I'm sorry, but I don't have that kind of power. I can only upgrade equipment Level. However, I have Top-Tier Equipment Manufacturing Blueprints for sale here. Do you need them?"

"Oh?"

Chen Mo was immediately interested. His Composing Ability could synthesize anything.

If he could get the formula directly, wouldn't he be able to spend money and synthesize it, just like the Ten-Thousand Spirit Medicine?

He immediately asked the blacksmith to display the blueprints.

"HISS... that's expensive! They all cost three or five bravery points? The guy before you sold a god-grade key for only five points."

Chen Mo saw some good equipment blueprints, but a Purple-Gold Grade Equipment Blueprint cost three bravery points, and a Dark-Gold Grade Equipment Blueprint cost five points. This was evidently too expensive.

"If you buy more, I can give you a bigger discount," the Blacksmith said, chuckling amiably.

"How so?"

"Spend over five bravery points, and you get a ten percent discount. Over ten points, a twenty percent discount. Over fifteen points, a thirty percent discount, and so on. I can give you up to a fifty percent discount."

"Forget it. It's too expensive; I can't afford it."

Chen Mo immediately declined.

These items aren't even god-grade, and he still wants to swindle my bravery points?

"That's truly a pity. I hope you'll like the services my other brothers have to offer; they will be waiting for you below."

After speaking, the Mysterious Blacksmith vanished in a puff of smoke.

Chen Mo paid it no mind and directly entered the thirty-sixth floor.

[The Heavenly Path's Hint: You have entered the eighth-tier area. All monsters in this area have their Life increased by 32,000%, and their attack and defense increased by 3,200%! All monsters in this area will gain the seventh common Underworld City BUFF.]

[The Heavenly Path's Hint: The current common Underworld City BUFFs are "Solid," "Cruel," "Bloodthirsty," "Dodge," "Tenacity," "Thorns," and "Invisible."]

[Invisible]: All monsters enter a permanent invisible state.

"I have the top-tier perception ability of a Pioneer. Even god-grade invisibility is useless against me."

This BUFF had no effect on Chen Mo whatsoever.

However, he found the attribute increase a bit absurd.

If it keeps multiplying like this, how extreme will the stats eventually become?

Upon reaching the thirty-sixth floor, Chen Mo's monster-farming speed drastically decreased when he didn't activate the Almighty Converter.

「Meanwhile, in the outside world.」

Seeing that Chen Mo had reached the thirty-sixth floor, having already defeated the first-transition Level 20 Golden BOSS on the thirty-fifth floor—a BOSS with 160 times its normal Health and 16 times its normal attack power—everyone was numb.

In Seaside Second Middle School, Shen Rulong turned to Su Tianxin beside him and asked, "After Chen Mo returned, was he contacted by anyone from the Academy Alliance?"

"I don't know," Su Tianxin said, shaking her head. "A friend dragged me into an instance for the past couple of days. By the time I got out, it was already last night. I completely forgot to remind them about the college entrance examination today."

"You mean his strange behavior now is because..."

Before Su Tianxin could finish, Shen Rulong patted her shoulder and said, "Exactly. Otherwise, Chen Mo's performance today is just too strange."

At this moment, an instructor from Seaside Second Middle School commented, "I'm wondering, is Chen Mo still only on the first or second floor, and this data was simply altered by the Alliance?"

"Impossible. If they think they can deceive the Aliens just by altering the displayed data, they're seriously underestimating them. It can't be that simple. I think something was manipulated within the instance; we just don't know how the Academy Alliance managed it."

Shen Rulong watched Chen Mo's changing data, filled with curiosity.

How could the Aliens not have thought of such a crude method as altering data? Such a tactic could easily be investigated and its existence verified or debunked. The higher-ups in the Academy Alliance wouldn't be that foolish.

By now, people were no longer amazed that Chen Mo had reached the thirty-sixth floor. Instead, they were all curious about whether he could ultimately clear the fiftieth floor.

Although his monster-farming speed was somewhat slower than before, Chen Mo still quickly reached the fortieth floor.

At this time, the vast majority of participants were still on the first floor, a few were on the second, and a very small number were on the third.

After all, not even thirty minutes had passed since the start of the examination.

Besides, they didn't possess Chen Mo's wide-area perception ability, much less his wide-area blink ability, so they could only search for the entrance to the next floor on foot.

The time spent on each floor was considerable.

On the fortieth floor, Chen Mo expected to encounter a Level 30 first-transition silver-grade BOSS.

However, to his surprise, he actually encountered a Level 20 first-transition team BOSS.

Team BOSSes inherently had an immense amount of Health, let alone a first-transition one.

And now, the Health of this particular first-transition team BOSS was further buffed by the instance, increased 320-fold!

Under such an absurd buff, its Health had reached 117.6 trillion!

Looking at that long string of zeros, Chen Mo almost forgot how to count.

"Truly heaven-defying! So much Health? Is this meant for ghosts to fight?"

Complaints were complaints, but the fight still had to be fought.

This kind of BOSS seemed deliberately placed here to act as a gatekeeper, preventing anyone from advancing further.

Chen Mo couldn't help but wonder if the Blacksmith on the previous floor had sold any equipment that could significantly increase damage. Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible to deplete this much Health.

Chen Mo had actually guessed right. Not only the Blacksmith on the previous floor but also the one he had encountered first had been selling similar equipment.

It was equipment that could ignore a BOSS's immunity to abnormal status effects and continuously apply a stacking, damage-boosting BUFF to the BOSS.

It was just that the damage-boosting effects of the equipment sold by the Blacksmith on the more recent floor were even better than those sold by the earlier one.
