Chapter 51 An Unexpected Joy! [Fragment of Thor's Hammer]!
"The Extremis virus? Interesting."
From space, Horn watched everything that happened in the town of Gumira through images transmitted back by the Shadow Sword drone.
The Shadow Sword drone is equipped with multiple advanced high-definition lenses that can synchronize with the footage from the Assault Freedom armor, making it almost indistinguishable from watching it live.
Therefore, Horn easily identified those radiating intense heat as having used the [Extremis Virus].
A bio-engineered human whose body has been enhanced.
"Unfortunately, they are all half-finished products."
Knowing the plot, Horn has a deep understanding of the power of the finished product, the Extremis Virus.
Let alone so many of them, even just one of them would be enough for Tony to handle right now; even his energy shield couldn't withstand their frequent attacks.
After all, the cyborgs that used the unfinished [Extremis Virus] had unstable viruses in their bodies and very limited attack methods, only able to cause fatal damage to others through self-destruction. The finished [Extremis Virus], on the other hand, not only gave people powerful physical regeneration abilities, but also significantly improved their physical attributes.
It's no exaggeration to say that with just the Mark III, Tony would probably be completely outmatched by the opponent.
"Ding! Congratulations on successfully completing the iconic scene [Iron Man in Peril]! Reward: 5 Beginner Blind Boxes, 3 check-in points."
000 points!
Just as Horn withdrew his gaze, activated the stealth module of his Assault Freedom armor, and prepared to return home, a notification sound rang in his mind.
"What? You can still witness iconic moments by watching the battle from this far away?"
He was stunned for a moment, his face full of surprise.
This was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise for him; he never expected that simply coming out to test the performance of the Assault Freedom Armor would yield such a result.
Five beginner blind boxes, 3000 check-in points!
He already had 8000 check-in points, and with these 3000, it means he can open another intermediate blind box!
hiss—
Without a second thought, he activated his Assault Freedom armor to fly at near-light speed and returned to the underground laboratory of his manor in California at top speed. With the help of the mechanical arm on the ceiling, he removed the armor, picked up the coffee that Zhao Hailun had made for him, and sat down on the sofa.
"open!"
Opening the [Multiverse Check-in Tool] interface, without hesitation, I opened all the beginner blind boxes I had just obtained in one go.
Things are different now. The rewards from the beginner blind boxes no longer satisfy his appetite, and he doesn't feel as much pressure when he opens them. You could say he's very casual about it, like opening a bottle of red wine.
"Ding! Congratulations! You have obtained one bottle of [Basic Physique Enhancement Agent]!"
"Ding! Congratulations! You have obtained one bottle of [Basic Physique Enhancement Agent]!"
"Ding! Congratulations on obtaining one piece of [Adamantium Alloy]!"
"Ding! Congratulations on obtaining one piece of [Vibranium]!"
"Ding! Congratulations on obtaining one [Thor's Hammer Fragment]!"
With each flash of light, five reward notifications appeared on the screen in front of Horn.
"The two bottles of enhancer are useless to me, but I can give them to Tony and Pepper."
His gaze was calm as he read through the items one by one. The first two were bottles of body-strengthening agents that he had already used three times and whose effects he was now completely immune to. He glanced at them and made up his mind before continuing to read.
"What?! Adamantium? Vibranium and fragments of Thor's hammer?!"
Horn's eyes widened, and he stood up in astonishment, unable to believe the information displayed on the interface was real. "I remember Thor's hammer was made of Uru metal, so this is a piece of Uru metal! And it's Uru metal imbued with Thor's power!"
He was excited and immediately took out the three pieces of metal and placed them in front of him.
The next second, Horn was dumbfounded.
"Holy crap? It's only this small?"
He stared at the three metal cubes in front of him, each about the size of a fist, and his expression froze.
With such a small amount of metal, let alone building a Strike Freedom Gundam or armor, it would be difficult to even make a simple weapon or shield!
"As expected of a beginner's blind box."
Horn sighed, both amused and exasperated, and without giving it any further thought, waved his hand to put the three pieces of metal into his spatial ring, intending to study them later.
According to the introduction, even though they are only the size of a fist, their level is judged as D by the [Multiverse Check-in Device] due to their own strength. They are the highest level items that can be obtained from the beginner blind boxes. Logically speaking, this is already a triple gold draw, and he should be happy.
Unfortunately, there are too few of them, otherwise their grade would be at least A or even higher. As a result, they are not useful now and can only be stored in the space ring as a collection for the time being. We will make plans for them in the future when we have mastered more advanced technology.
"No problem, there's still an intermediate blind box!"
Horn composed himself, turned his attention back to the intermediate blind box, and tapped it.
Whoosh—
With 10000 check-in points deducted, a flash of light appeared, and the intermediate blind box was opened.
"Ding! Congratulations! You have obtained one bottle of [Intermediate Physique Enhancement Agent]!"
[Intermediate Physical Fitness Enhancer]
[Grade: C]
[Effect: Permanently increases the four physical attributes of Strength, Agility, Spirit, and Physique by 100 points without any side effects.]
[Note: Repeated use of the same type of enhancer will significantly reduce its effectiveness.]
"Intermediate Physique Enhancer!? Increases physical attributes by 100 points!"
Horn's emotions, which had just calmed down, were suddenly stirred up again. He stood up excitedly, his eyes fixed on the description of the enhancer that appeared on the interface.
While C-grade items aren't the top rewards in the intermediate blind boxes, the [Intermediate Constitution Enhancer], which provides a comprehensive boost to his physical attributes, is just as valuable as a B-grade reward!
In some respects, it is even more effective than certain B-level rewards.
After all, no matter how high the B-level reward is, if it's just an external thing and can't bring him any substantial improvement without any side effects, then it's just a fleeting cloud in the sky.
This is similar to the [Miniature Arc Reactor Manufacturing Technology] and the [Mark Armor Manufacturing Technology]; both are B-level technologies.
While the level rewards can bring him a wealth of knowledge and enable him to create powerful armor, the problem is that these are all based on many conditions and are not a direct upgrade.
After all, both the miniature arc reactor and the Mark armor require corresponding automated factories and manufacturing materials. Without them, even if he has the relevant manufacturing knowledge, he can only stare blankly. In addition, even if he has automated manufacturing factories and related manufacturing materials, he still needs time to continuously test and manufacture them.
The Assault Freedom Armor he just tested took him several days to finally manufacture successfully.
And this is based on the premise that he has a lot of experience in manufacturing success and failure, which has saved him a lot of detours. Otherwise, let alone a few days, even if you were given several months, it would be impossible to manufacture it.
On the other hand, the [Intermediate Physique Enhancer] immediately brought about a visible improvement in his physical fitness as soon as he drank it!
And it's an improvement without any conditions or side effects!
The result is that one plus one is greater than two!
After all, the power of techniques such as the Six Powers of the Navy, Observation Haki, and Armament Haki increases along with one's physical abilities!
"His physical attributes previously broke through 100 points, and his Observation Haki subsequently advanced to intermediate level. I wonder what kind of improvement he'll bring this time?"
Horn felt a surge of anticipation.
