Chapter 36: Explosion sound? (2/5)_1
Damage effects also have corresponding resistance levels, but unlike control effects, they do not have temporary resistance levels. Damage effects only consider your accumulated resistance level. For example, if you are afflicted with a bleed effect, you might lose 100 health points per second. While losing health, you accumulate bleed resistance. Once you accumulate 100 points of bleed resistance, your bleed resistance reaches Level 1. Subsequently, if you suffer another 100 points of bleeding damage, the damage you take will be reduced by 10%, meaning you only sustain 90 points of bleeding damage per second. The same principle applies to poison, burn, and frost damage. Regardless of the type of special damage, each instance of damage taken grants 1 experience point.
The corpse poison effect of Chen Mo’s Skeleton Monsters only triggers a poison explosion damage every 100 stacks. This is different from typical poison effects that deal damage over time, so an opponent’s poison resistance accumulates very slowly against it. However, if the opponent possesses the Resistance Expert trait, it’s a different story. With this trait, they can accumulate 100 relevant experience points from a single instance of damage, effectively increasing their resistance leveling speed by 100 times.
Still, Chen Mo wasn’t overly concerned. After all, the higher the resistance level, the more difficult it is to increase. Reaching Level 1 from Level 0 only requires 100 experience points. But progressing from Level 1 to Level 2 requires 500 points, from Level 2 to Level 3 requires 2,000 points, and from Level 3 to Level 4 requires 6,000 points. Even with a 100-fold increase in experience accumulation speed, reaching the maximum level wouldn’t be easy. Besides, even at the maximum level, one isn’t completely immune; at most, they are immune to 99% of the damage. Of course, if immunity reaches such a high level, dealing damage becomes considerably slower—a truly agonizing prospect!
After examining The Master of Mutation’s information, Chen Mo didn’t identify any abilities or Skills that posed a particular threat to him. He decided to act immediately! Although the BOSS’s Active skills were potent, none were strong enough to instantly annihilate him and his five hundred Skeleton Monsters. As long as a single Skeleton Monster remained alive, Chen Mo, relying on the Shared Fate effect, could remain Immortal! And if Chen Mo was Immortal, Skeleton Monsters could be summoned endlessly, eventually wearing down this BOSS.
As Chen Mo waved his Magic Wand, the nomad turned its head towards him. Naturally, as an archer, its eyesight was excellent, especially considering the alarming six eyes on its face. The sight was unnerving. Just as it was preparing to charge at Chen Mo, it keenly sensed something was amiss in its surroundings. Before it could react, it felt a sharp sting!
A deluge of damage figures erupted above its head:
-902! (PS: A special note—this story uses a custom attack and defense algorithm. Damage is not a simple subtraction of defensive power from attack power. According to this algorithm, when defensive power is approximately three times greater than attack power, the damage dealt approaches zero. Therefore, this story will adopt the setting that no damage can be inflicted if defensive power is more than three times the attack power; if it’s not more than three times, corresponding damage will be dealt.)
-910!
