75 74. You don't believe in the defensive power of Captain America's Shield? I'll prove it to you [Third Update]_1

"Crack crack crack—"

The right upper arm armor and right small arm armor snapped together, forming a complete right arm armor.

Thousand Waves felt joy filling his heart as he shook his arm; using his thoughts to guide it, he integrated the Four-Word Battle Armor into his body.

His right arm and right shoulder were revealed again.

Once again using his thoughts to guide it, glimmering stars appeared on his arm and shoulder as the Four-Word Battle Armor manifested once more.

Everyone could tell that Thousand Waves was having a lot of fun with it.

Indeed, one's mood each day is determined by the treasures one receives.

"If you've finished testing, you can make your second attack now,"

Lin Yi said.

"Okay!"

Thousand Waves didn't retract the Four-Word Battle Armor; it seemed he was planning to use it in combination with his attack this time.

But Lin Yi suddenly spoke up, "I need to remind you that the damage bonus of Four-Word Battle Armor parts depends on their connection to the mode of attack."

"For example, your first soul skill is the Sword of Judgment; using the right gauntlet to wield the Angel Holy Sword for the attack involves direct contact and a power linkage."

"The degree of connection is very high, so the bonus can reach one hundred percent."

"However, your right upper arm and shoulder armor don't make direct contact with the Angel Holy Sword, so the bonus won't reach one hundred percent."

"Not every part will have one hundred percent bonus; it varies depending on the situation."

Lin Yi's explanation was very detailed, and Thousand Waves understood.

"I understand, thank you, Senior, for your guidance. However, I still choose to use the Four-Word Battle Armor to assist my attack,"

"That's up to you. You can start whenever you're ready,"

Lin Yi replied indifferently.

"Alright!"

Thousand Waves took a deep breath.

Hopefully, this attempt would not be less than 270,000 damage.

His attack mode was: first soul skill + Four-Word Battle Armor.

Last time, when only the small arm armor was available, this attack mode just managed to deal slightly over 200,000 damage.

It was uncertain how much damage bonus the right upper arm armor and right shoulder armor could provide.

"First soul skill! Sword of Judgment!"

Thousand Waves declared solemnly.

He made a fist with his right gauntlet as if grasping a hilt; from his palm, a sword handle appeared, emitting a gold-level holy light that extended downwards into a sharp blade.

Thousand Waves stomped on the ground, leaping up, with the Angel Holy Sword emitting a blazing white light in mid-air.

The sword swung down, falling!

"Boom—"

An immensely powerful damage rebound exploded from Lin Yi's body.

Thousand Waves' expression became serious; he thrust the Angel Holy Sword downward, and the impact forced him to stagger several meters back, leaving a scar on the viewing platform.

Seeing this, Lin Yi frowned slightly.

"You've scratched up my arena; remember to have someone repair it,"

"Eh eh! Sure thing!"

Thousand Waves laughed sheepishly.

[Blood Loss: 279,743]

[Remaining Health: 999,985,790,038]

[Damage Grade: Red (Primary)]

[Random Reward: Captain America's Shield (Magically Modified) *1, Permanent]

[Random Reward: Captain America (Magically Modified) *1, Permanent]

Seeing the rewards, Lin Yi was astounded.

System, you're really overdoing it! What are you trying to say by gifting me a modified Marvel character? It's one thing if it's a woman, but giving me a muscle man? What do I need a muscle man for?

Lin Yi specifically checked the description to see what the magically modified Captain America was like.

[Fine physique, gravity-defying buttocks]

[Ultimate Douluo level strength, Ultimate Douluo level speed]

[No skills, comes with a Captain America's Shield (Magically Modified)]

[Absolute obedience to commands, ps. Speaks Chinese]

[Can be freely stored or retrieved from the System Space]

Lin Yi: "..."

It turns out to be akin to being given an enforcer.

Forget it, I'll just treat him like a little brother.

Lin Yi looked at Thousand Waves and said, "Damage 279743, Red Junior damage, breaking your own record yet again."

"The reward you get is a shield, named Captain America's Shield."

After speaking, Lin Yi tossed the red light orb towards Thousand Waves.

The orb transformed into a mostly blue round shield mid-air, and Thousand Waves slightly widened his eyes hurriedly catching it in his hands.

He thought it would be heavy, but was surprised to find it exceptionally light.

As Thousand Waves was examining the shield, Lin Yi explained:

"The ability of this shield is quite simple; it has absolute defensive power. Taking a hit from the gods is no problem, and it's something that even those below Ultimate Douluo need not worry about."

"Really? Such a light shield can do that?"

Thousand Waves exclaimed in surprise.

Lin Yi looked up at him and said indifferently, "Hold up the shield."

"Huh?"

Lin Yi stood up and walked over to Thousand Waves.

When he reached him, he didn't explain much, just clenched his right hand tightly and lifted his fist, drawing it back.

Thousand Waves immediately widened his eyes, he saw the air around Lin Yi's right fist distort intensely in an instant!

Realizing what Lin Yi was about to do, he immediately lifted the shield.

At the same time, Lin Yi's punch landed on the shield.

"Thump——"

"Boom——Boom——"

The shield emitted a buzzing sound, and consecutive air explosions occurred!

The massive impact from the stands instantly spread below!

The edge of the stands crumbled instantaneously, with marble debris flying everywhere.

"Holy shit——"

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Porcupine Douluo, among others, cried out in alarm, directly blasted by the air explosion from the punch into the crowd behind them!

There was no helping it, they were standing right behind Thousand Waves.

After that punch, the scene was a complete mess.

Thousand Waves stood behind the shield, eyes wide open.

He didn't feel any impact while holding the shield… but he caught a glimpse of the surrounding scene from the corner of his eye.

Directly and slightly behind him, the marble layer covering the stands was completely shattered by Lin Yi's punch…

And the Soul Masters closest to him, including the Titled Douluo, were blasted into the crowd…

Chen Xin and Gu Rong on the outer rim of the crowd were staring agape, jaws dropped as if looking at a monster, fixated on Lin Yi.

"Surprised, right? The defense of the shield left you completely unaffected, not even shifting your position." Lin Yi asked calmly, facing Thousand Waves.

Thousand Waves was at a loss for words.

He was indeed surprised.

But the shield was the least of it.

What I'm most shocked by is…

Your strength, dammit, is even more heaven-defying than the shield's defense?!

Holy crap!

Thousand Waves immediately turned to look behind him.

Behind him was a scene of havoc.

The Soul Masters lying on the ground got up with disheveled hair and marble debris all over them.

These Soul Masters looked at Lin Yi on the stands with a face full of grievances.

They were speechless with bitterness.

Senior Lin Yi used us as test subjects to prove that his reward was effective.

Baby's heart is bitter, but baby won't tell.

"Don't you believe it yet?"

Seeing no response from Thousand Waves, Lin Yi asked, furrowing his brows.

"I believe!!!"

Thousand Waves looked at the figure before him, still shaken.

I truly believe! Please don't demonstrate a second time!

"That's good."

Lin Yi nodded, and as he walked away, he instructed Bi Bidong, "Remember to find someone to repair the arena for me, thanks."

ps. Here is the third update, asking for daily follow-ups, thank you, and have a great weekend ducks!
