After upgrading the XX-level talent Sea House Addition, Zhang Yanhang immediately began to tally the gains from his equipment. Naturally, he started with the Light Golden Quality equipment Life Ring, which was obtained from the Dark Purple Quality drop treasure box of the T-103 Super Tyrant.

This time, Zhang Yanhang opened a total of 723 Life Rings, while he originally had 23 Life Ring +5s, one Life Ring +4, one Life Ring +3, and one Ordinary Life Ring on hand, which is equivalent to 761 Life Rings.

Adding these two parts together, Zhang Yanhang now has a total of 1484 Life Rings.

"1484 rings, although it seems like a lot, it still seems a bit difficult to fill all my fingers."

But in any case, since Zhang Yanhang had said earlier that he would try to fill all his fingers this time, he naturally had to make an effort to do so. Therefore, he first set aside ten Ordinary Life Rings, so even if the number of rings forged at the end was insufficient, he could use these Ordinary Life Rings to fill his fingers.

After setting aside those ten Ordinary Life Rings, Zhang Yanhang then took off all the Life Rings from his fingers and placed them along with the 713 newly acquired Life Rings into the Alchemy Array.

Due to the large number of rings that needed to be fused, Zhang Yanhang used a total of eighteen batches just for the first round of fusion. This was unprecedented, and at this moment, he really wanted to upgrade the Level of Alchemy, but unfortunately, the Ash Source was indeed not enough, so he could only wait until after clearing the Umbrella Biochemical Test Field to upgrade.

Including the previously remaining one Ordinary Life Ring, this round actually fused 714 Life Rings. Therefore, after spending eighteen batches to complete the first fusion round, Zhang Yanhang obtained a total of 357 Life Ring +1s.

However, although the first round had no leftovers, the second round was different. For this round, Zhang Yanhang used nine batches to fuse 178 Life Ring +2s, leaving one Life Ring +1 on its own.

Then, for the third round, Zhang Yanhang used five batches to fuse 89 Life Ring +3s. Although it seemed like an odd number, Zhang Yanhang still had one Life Ring +3 left, so he actually had a total of 90 Life Ring +3s. Therefore, in the fourth round of fusion, Zhang Yanhang used three batches to fuse 45 Life Ring +4s.

And because he still had one Life Ring +4 left from before, the number of Life Ring +4s became even again. Meanwhile, Zhang Yanhang used two batches to fuse twenty-three Life Ring +5s, and last time he had fused twenty-three Life Ring +5s as well.

Therefore, Zhang Yanhang then used a pairing method to fuse them again in two more rounds, resulting in twenty-three Life Ring +6s.

After successfully fusing Life Ring +6s, Zhang Yanhang could clearly feel that +6 was the fusion limit for the Life Ring. At this moment, the Life Ring +6 was still gleaming with Golden Quality, with a certain gap remaining from Dark Gold Quality.

"It seems that relying on ordinary fusion is indeed unlikely to directly produce Dark Gold equipment. But fortunately, the problem is not big, I wasn't expecting to directly fuse into Dark Gold anyway."

According to Zhang Yanhang's past experiences, most times only equipment that starts close to full-score can rely on ordinary fusion to leap over two qualities. For equipment like the Life Ring, which is merely Light Golden Quality with a low score, the hope of promotion is indeed pathetically small.

Looking at the Life Ring +6 in front of him, Zhang Yanhang did not hurry to check its attribute list but pondered whether to fuse the surplus ten Life Rings as well.

After all, he now only has thirty fingers in total. Removing twenty-three Life Ring +6s and the one Life Ring +1 would only leave six positions; the number of rings wouldn't be enough to use. He could completely fuse them, hm, his OCD was mostly acting up, feeling uncomfortable without fusing them.

At this thought, Zhang Yanhang immediately fused those ten Life Rings into five Life Ring +1s. In this way, adding the Life Rings fused earlier, he now possesses a total of twenty-three Life Ring +6s and six Life Ring +1s, a total of twenty-nine Life Rings.

"Although missing one, compared to the previous twenty-six rings, this is much better, three more Life Rings than before."

After finishing the fusion of the Life Rings, Zhang Yanhang quickly began to check the attribute list of the newly fused Life Ring +6.

[Life Ring +6]

[Quality: Golden]

[Type: Equipment]

[Origin: Ashen World, Umbrella Biochemical Test Field, Gelijia City, Zhang Yanhang.]

[Durability: 67/67]

[Defensive Power: 52]

[Additional Attributes: Life Value Limit +1.5% (+0.12%).]

[Additional Attributes: Life Value Recovery Speed +60% (+6%)]

[Usage Requirements: Constitution 5 points.]

[Score: 440 (Golden Items score ranges from 351 to 440.)]

[Introduction: A Life Ring developed, designed, and manufactured by Dr. Krees, the chief scientist of the A-3 Comprehensive Research Base, aiming to safeguard his increasingly exhausted body due to staying up late playing games for years, and to prevent other scientists who persist in staying up late doing scientific research during his gaming hours from dying suddenly.]

"The score of the Life Ring increased by twenty-five points after fusing to +6, growing from the original four-hundred-and-twenty-five points to four-hundred-and-forty points, which is equivalent to going from a high-score Golden Quality directly to a full-score Golden Quality.

Although I don't particularly desire any full-score Golden Quality, it would be great if it could just increase to Dark Gold Quality by a point."

Of course, Zhang Yanhang also understands that although a full-score Golden Quality seems to be only a point away from Dark Gold Quality on the surface, the gap is actually quite large.

Or perhaps, although full-score equipment appears to have a perfect score on the surface, there is still a significant gap between full scores, let alone the gap with Dark Gold Quality.

Let's still take Zhang Yanhang's Light Golden Full-score Rebirth in Pure Bliss Realm Prison Suppression Cannon as an example. Although it appears to be just a Light Golden Full-score Equipment, in reality, it is much stronger in terms of strength than Golden Quality items, and not just by a small margin, but by a large leap.

So, this might also be why sometimes during equipment fusion, it coincidentally reaches a full score. Most of the time, it may not be a coincidence but simply because it cannot surpass the quality gap, so it can only remain at the current quality and achieve a full score.

"And apart from the equipment score, the more important aspect is the growth of additional attributes. This time, after the Life Ring fused to +6, it again increased the Life Value Limit bonus by 0.12%, raising the total bonus from the original 1.38% to 1.5% after fusion.

Besides this, the Life Value Recovery Speed also grew by 6%, increasing from the original 54% to 60%, all of which are normal growth."

Zhang Yanhang is now only hoping that the breakthrough limit later can increase some additional attributes. Although he needs to first accumulate forty Life Rings +6 to begin accumulating the Life Rings +6 required for the breakthrough.

But considering that it has already reached the limit at just +6, it seems fine. There is still some hope of accumulating a few Dark Gold Quality Life Rings +7.

After quickly checking the Life Ring +6's attribute list, Zhang Yanhang swiftly put all twenty-nine Life Rings on his fingers, leaving only one finger still vacant.

Then, he casually glanced at the newly fused Life Ring +1's Attributes List, and as a result, he found that because it only fused to +1, and fusion to +3 is required to advance to Golden Quality, currently, the Life Ring +1 remains Light Golden Quality, only providing a 0.96% Life Value Limit bonus and a 33% Life Recovery Speed bonus.

"The twenty-three Life Rings +6 I put on this time can provide a total of 34.5% Life Value Limit bonus, and those six Life Rings +1 can provide a 5.76% Life Value Limit.

So, these twenty-nine Life Rings can provide me a total of 40.26% Life Value Limit, compared to the previous 35.04% Life Value Limit bonus, it has grown by another 5.22% Life Value Limit."

Besides this, the twenty-three Life Rings +6 also provided Zhang Yanhang with a 1380% Life Value Recovery Speed bonus, while the six Life Rings +1 provided a 198% Life Value Recovery Speed bonus, together providing a total of 1578% Life Value Recovery Speed bonus.

Prior to this, only a total of 1362% Life Value Recovery Speed bonus was provided to Zhang Yanhang, so this time, he effectively increased the Life Value Recovery Speed bonus by 216%, which can be said to not be much.

After successfully equipping these twenty-nine Life Rings, Zhang Yanhang immediately opened his Life Value Limit to check how much the increase in his Life Value Limit bonus just now could help him grow his Life Value Limit.

[Life Value: 31526/31526 (Constitution ×79, current body has officially datafied, Life Value Recovery Speed, 71 points per hour.)]

"Compared to before, my Life Value Limit has increased from 30841 points to 31526 points, a total increase of 685 Life Value Limit points. If this were in the First Tier, these 685 Life Value Limit points would almost equal my total Life Value Limit at that time.

But for me now, just fusing a Life Ring casually has increased the Life Value Limit by 685 points, and it even feels a bit too little."

For Zhang Yanhang, who already has a Life Value Limit of over thirty thousand points, he feels that perhaps only an increase of more than a thousand points in the Life Value Limit can be considered significant for him.

"After the Life Value Limit reached 31526 points, I successfully completed the previous small goal of 31,000 points Life Value Limit, and the next small goal will be set at 32,000 points. I currently still need 474 Life Value Limit points to complete the next small goal."

From the current situation, Zhang Yanhang believes this small goal should also be easily achievable, for example when he replaces all the Life Rings with Life Rings +6 and then adds the last finger, he should easily be able to gather the missing part of this Life Value Limit.

"Moreover, although it seems on the surface that this part of the increased Life Value Limit is indeed a bit less compared to the previous increase of over nine hundred points in Life Value Limit, it nonetheless has helped me complete the small goal of seven times Life Value Limit.

For a normal Fourth Tier Awakened, the Life Value Limit is 4500 points, and my current Life Value Limit of 31526 points is exactly seven times that of a Same Tier Awakened, compared to the previous 6.8 times, increasing the Life Value Limit by another 0.2 times."

Of course, since it was actually 6.85 times before, this time, strictly speaking, it only increased by 0.15 times, but fortunately, the difference is not too much.

Zhang Yanhang had expected to easily complete the small goal of seven times the Life Value Limit, but had little confidence in the next small goal of eight times the Life Value Limit.

After all, the potential of the Life Rings is already showing signs of depletion, and the Life Value Limit that the Indestructible Golden Body can enhance is also quite daunting, as it is still the entire Life Value Limit of a normal Fourth Tier Awakened, and it is not that easy to enhance.

"If there isn't anything else that can also increase the Life Value Limit, perhaps I will only stay at this sevenfold small goal in the Fourth Tier, as the eightfold goal seems a bit distant for now."

Zhang Yanhang sighed silently.

"Previously, my Life Value Recovery Speed reached 1038 points per hour with a 1362% bonus, and now, with a 1578% bonus, it has reached 1191 points per hour, which means it increased by another 153 points per hour compared to before."

And because this time the increase in Life Value Recovery Speed exceeded the increase rate of Life Value Limit, Zhang Yanhang's time to fully recover one bar of Life Value finally showed an improvement. It originally required thirty hours, but now it has been reduced to 26.5 hours, cutting down by three and a half hours.

"My previous peak speed was only twenty-six hours, now it is just half an hour short of the peak speed."

If this situation continues, when Zhang Yanhang wears more Life Rings, there indeed seems to be a certain possibility of compressing the speed of fully recovering one bar of Life Value Limit to within twenty-four hours.

Although Zhang Yanhang indeed set this small goal, in some way, he actually doesn't want to achieve it, as not achieving it depends on the Life Value Limit gain exceeding the Life Value Recovery Speed gain.

Therefore, compared to the more important Life Value Limit growth, Zhang Yanhang would actually prefer not to meet this target, but unfortunately, from the current situation, even if he doesn't want to achieve it, there's nothing he can do; he will definitely achieve it.
