I summon the heroic spirits of China in the infinite world.

"Next up is Lü Bu."

Li Ming took a deep breath and continued reading.

The panel for Lu Bu's essence attributes was opened.

【Lone Warrior - Trait】: Does not accept external healing effects, attacks have a 10% lifesteal effect.

This trait is a Breakthrough type and requires 100 Breakthrough Stones and 500 Cubic Coins to unlock.

[Bullying - Trait]: When dealing damage to a target with lower attack power than yourself, the damage is increased by 10%.

This trait is a Breakthrough type and requires 100 Breakthrough Stones and 500 Cubic Coins to unlock.

[Assault - Trait]: When dealing 100% armor penetration damage, all attributes increase by 10% for 3 seconds.

This trait is a Breakthrough type and requires 100 Breakthrough Stones and 500 Cubic Coins to unlock.

"They're all of the Destruction type, that's pure."

Dawn began to analyze each point one by one.

First is [Lone Courage], which is exactly the same as Guan Yu's, who is also a member of the Breaking Force type.

But Lu Bu is different from Guan Yu; he doesn't have the support of the three heroes of the Peach Garden who swore brotherhood and shared life points.

Guan Yu can rely on Liu Bei and Zhang Fei's health to sustain him, and with the added benefit of 10% lifesteal, he can dominate the battlefield.

Lü Bu is not suitable if he is forced to fight entirely alone.

With only 10% lifesteal, it's difficult for him to stand alone in high-intensity battles.

So PASS.

Then look at [bullying].

When dealing damage to a target with lower attack power than yourself, the damage is increased by 10%. To be honest, this feature has significant limitations.

It's okay for fighting small monsters, but it's really no match for bosses.

The number of terms associated with a BOSS may not be large, but its numerical values ​​are high.

Lu Bu's attack power is probably not low among the Heroic Spirits, but it shouldn't be high enough to rival a boss of the same level.

In reality, when both enchantments are triggered, Lu Bu's attack power is not superior to Guan Yu's.

Lu Bu's [Valiant] skill grants a +20% bonus to all attributes, while Guan Yu's [Loyalty] skill grants a +20% bonus to attack power.

In terms of attack power alone, there is no difference in the bonuses between the two.

Although Guan Yu's attack power at LV2 is almost the same as Lu Bu's at LV2, Guan Yu has an additional evil spirit-type special attack and the attack bonus from the "Single-handedly Going to the Meeting" skill.

If Guan Yu were to acquire this trait, Dawn would consider it.

However, Lu Bu's advantage lies in [true damage], rather than pure attack power.

Therefore, this option is also PASS.

Finally, there's [Strike].

When dealing 100% armor penetration damage, all attributes increase by 10% for 3 seconds.

"This feature is fantastic."

Dawn's eyes lit up.

Other heroes might need to use their ultimate skill or stack multiple buffs to achieve 100% armor penetration.

But Lu Bu is different; he is born with true damage, which is 100% armor penetration.

Therefore, this characteristic can maintain a 10% bonus to all attributes from the moment the first attack is launched.

He had observed Lu Bu's attack frequency, and 3 seconds was plenty of time for Lu Bu, making it unlikely that there would be any gaps in his attack.

The only possible gap is that the enemy is gone.

If it were a ranged attack like Huang Zhong's bow and arrow or Zhuge Liang's wind blade, which has a slow attack frequency and requires consideration of accuracy, it would be difficult to maintain continuous fire.

But Lü Bu doesn't have this problem at all.

"Let's wait a few days."

Unfortunately, I don't have any Breaking Stones on hand right now; the previous 100 have already been used on Guan Yu.

Now we have to wait for the production of the seven-colored stones.

But there's no rush, it's only a matter of three days.

The number of Steadfast Stones generated from the Rainbow Stones will soon reach 100.

Dawn waited for several hours, and as soon as the Steadfast Stone reached 100, she immediately switched to the Breakthrough Stone, without wasting a single bit of efficiency.

With the Stone of Firmness in hand, it's time to awaken Ma Chao.

[Resilience - Trait]: Reduces the duration of negative effects received by 20%.

This trait is of the Steadfast type and requires 100 Steadfast Stones and 500 Cubic Coins to unlock.

[Toughness - Trait]: Attack power +20% when energy is at 100%.

This trait is of the Steadfast type and requires 100 Steadfast Stones and 500 Cubic Coins to unlock.

[Sturdy - Trait]: Damage taken -3%

This trait is of the Steadfast type and requires 100 Steadfast Stones and 500 Cubic Coins to unlock.

After observing Ma Chao during several days of battle, Li Ming became even more determined in his initial choice.

【tough】.

The reason is simple: judging solely from combat instincts, fighting style, and stats, Ma Chao is not actually a purely defensive Heroic Spirit.

The Stone Monkey is a pure tank; its role is to take hits, absorb damage, and accumulate hits, so we chose the [Accumulated Weight] skill for it.

Ma Chao's defensive stats, such as health and armor, are inferior to Shi Hou's, but he can deal damage.

Therefore, a balanced approach of offense and defense is the right way.

And most importantly, Ma Chao only has one active skill: [Iron Guard].

After summoning the two Iron Guards, there's no energy left to use, making it easy to maintain a 100% full charge.

Moreover, Dawn also considered a deeper point: of the three traits, only [Toughness] is a pure attribute increase.

The increased attributes, in turn, provide bonuses to the Iron Guard.

"It's settled then."

[Should I consume 100 Steadfast Stones and 500 Cubic Coins to awaken this trait?]

"Yes."

hum!

The light fell on Ma Chao, and his silver armor and white robe gleamed coldly in the light.

Ma Chao has awakened a new spiritual characteristic.

The Heroic Spirit's attributes have been improved.

At this point, all five Tiger Generals can be said to have fully awakened.

With this attribute boost, Ma Chao's stats have now caught up with the other four Tiger Generals.

In terms of the most direct output-oriented attributes such as attack power, attack frequency, and agility, he is indeed no less than the other Five Tiger Generals, and in some aspects, he is even better than Liu Bei at level 3.

If we take into account the presence of the Iron Guard, it even has a unique advantage compared to the other four tiger generals.

If Guan Yu didn't trigger the "Single-handedly to the Meeting" skill, he probably wouldn't be able to defeat him.

【Ma Chao】: Tier 1 LV2, Steadfast

[Toughness - Trait]: Attack power +20% when energy is at 100%.

[Iron Guard - 100% Steadfast Energy]: Ma Chao can summon one [Iron Guard] Heroic Spirit, which possesses 20% of his own attributes. A maximum of two can exist simultaneously.

"Going forward, my main focus should be on training higher-level champions."

Dawn began to make plans.

It wasn't that he disliked having too many Heroic Spirits, but acquiring new ones was like starting from scratch.

My team's current structure is already complete. Simply increasing the quantity may not be as effective as improving the quality, which will help combat power more.

If you want to advance to the next level, there are two main ways to do it.

The first approach is through milestones.

The closest milestone I'm getting right now is surviving for ten days.

He just doesn't know what reward that milestone will give. If it's a Heroic Spirit card, he will certainly summon it without hesitation.

The second way is to find a higher-ranking boss.

The third option is to directly purchase upgrade cards.

The latter two require interaction with other summoners to complete.

So he activated the communication stone.

It's been several days since I last spoke with Bai Ye, and I wonder how things are going on his end.
