I Can Program My Body?-Chapter 429: Buff Optimization

"I forgot, I still have debt to pay to the Aqua Shelter." Nash scratched his head.

Because he still hadn’t paid back the resources he borrowed before, the progress of the Aqua Shelter didn’t even reach 50%.

Opening his contacts in the shelter panel, Nash quickly apologized to Elizabeth.

"It’s fine, you can pay me back in a different way after the competition," Elizabeth replied.

"Thank you. I’ll repay you with my body once we return."

"Alright, don’t be teasing me. I still have to rest..." Elizabeth said tiredly.

Unlike Nash, who acted like a machine, they were biological and spiritual beings.

Feeling beat up from continuous high-intensity battles, they wanted nothing more than to rest.

"Alright, rest well. I’ll visit you later."

Closing the conversation panel, Nash finally turned his attention to the main event.

"I can finally choose another buff!"

From the top 100 to the top 10, the Nova Team could pick another buff.

[Soul Enhancement X2, Void Enhancement X2, Elemental Comprehension, Elemental Training X2, Energy Saving X2 buff.]

Looking at the list of buffs the team had, Nash finally made his decision.

[Treasure Enhancement Buff: Increase the strength of treasure (i.e., runic weapon, dark technology, shelter treasure, potion, etc.) in proportion to their quality. Level 1]

"Hmm? It didn’t have any indicator of how much it could multiply?"

Seeing the vague description, Nash couldn’t help but frown.

Taking out a tier 6 treasure he’d previously gotten from a Guardian Dark Beast, Nash tried to swing it.

Swish~

"About two to three times more powerful..."

Testing with a weaker weapon, he quickly noticed the enhancement was different.

The higher the tier of weapon, the lower the enhancement effect would be.

However, when it came to quality, it was the opposite.

The higher the quality of the weapon, the higher the enhancement.

"I see..."

Testing the effect of the new buff, Nash couldn’t help but nod in satisfaction.

Even the Aegis Barrier was at least five times stronger than before.

"However, this is not enough!"

Five times the defensive power might allow the Aegis Barrier to defend against common and mutated dark beasts easily.

However, a guardian dark beast was still on another level.

A mere 5 times enhancement wasn’t enough to block it.

"It seems it’s time to change the buffs that we have."

With only a month left, there was no longer any need for auxiliary buffs that could increase their training speed.

Instead, Nash should focus on power and recovery.

Especially in recovery, the casualties that occurred within the alliance weren’t just because the enemy had grown stronger and more numerous, but also due to fatigue.

Having fought continuously for months, most of them were already numb.

Without any alertness, even a weak dark beast might be able to take their life.

Deciding on the matter, Nash quickly removed the Elemental Comprehension and Elemental Training buffs.

Having four quotas of buff, Nash quickly upgraded the Treasure Enhancement buff to level 3!

A level 6 shelter could already have a level 3 buff.

If not because they couldn’t withstand the surge of power, Nash might even upgrade the Void and Soul Enhancement buffs.

Unfortunately, unless they reached the tier 6 realm and mastered the power of law, it would be useless.

After the buff took effect, Nash quickly tested how much enhancement it had done to their treasures.

Trying from lowest to the highest, Nash calculated each enhancement to the tier and quality of each treasure.

"It’s three times from before." Nash sighed in a bit of disappointment.

Instead of ten or a hundred times like the other buffs, the level 3 Treasure Enhancement buff only increased three times in effect.

Furthermore, besides the shelter treasures and tier 6 treasures he had, the others only multiplied their enhancement by two times.

It seemed the level two enhancement buff was the limit of any being or item at the tier 5 realm.

"This should be enough." Nash comforted himself, already satisfied with the result.

With the level three Treasure Enhancement buff, the Aegis Barrier was fifteen times stronger than before.

While not capable of blocking multiple guardian dark beasts at once, it should have no problem defending against two or three.

Having such a guarantee, coupled with Tsuka’s increase in power, Nash might not even need to move himself to deal with these types of tier 6 dark beasts.

"Now, I should be able to concentrate on command," Nash sighed.

Seeing the casualties in the Star Alliance, Nash felt heartache.

These were all talents that may be his subordinates in the future. How could he watch them die silently?

Unfortunately, without any choice, he could only let them be.

Now that things had finally turned around, even if Nash had to work extra hard, he would ensure everyone came back intact.

Still having two buff quotas, Nash quickly made his choice.

[Dark Purification Buff: Purify the effect and corrosion of dark energy. Increase void, soul, and elemental recovery speed. Level 2]

Between the Elemental Enhancement Buff and the Dark Purification buff, Nash ultimately chose the latter.

He already had enough power to deal with any dark beast. Any more and it would just be wasted.

The Nova Team also didn’t have any Void Marshal that could take advantage of such a buff.

Besides a few thousand void venerates that mastered one or two elements, it was better to let everyone on the team benefit.

With the Dark Purification buff, not only would the effect of the dark phenomenon be largely deflected, and they could even recover faster.

This buff was not only for his team, but also specially for him.

While he was not as severely affected as the others, Nash still felt tiredness in his bones.

Fighting the sentinels and guardian dark beasts, saving each member of their hunting team, then commanding back at the alliance, Nash started to feel his mind spin.

Having such a buff, Nash could ensure he would be in peak state at all times.

Sure enough, with the buff taking effect, Nash felt he was bathing in a spring as all pores within his body started to relax.

"Now this is what I call a beneficial buff..."

Closing his eyes, Nash set aside everything and took a short nap.
