If earlier Zhang Yanhan could only achieve one-eighth of the small goal of shooting down the enemy command post from eight hundred miles away, now he could manage one-seventh, indicating significant progress.

"And according to the kinetic energy formula, the attack power of my cannon bullets has increased from 49 times the previous 24 Mach to 54.4 times, which means the cannon bullet attack power has increased by 5.4 times again."

As Zhang Yanhan mentioned before, the Attack Speed plays a major role in the kinetic energy formula as a squared number, both before and now, serving as strong evidence.

Although Attack Speed is indeed important, even more crucial for Zhang Yanhan right now is the enhancement of the Charm attribute. He felt it had been a long time since he last received an achievement that could enhance his attribute value.

But before checking the attribute list, Zhang Yanhan first removed the remaining nine Crimson Iron Rings from his fingers. In this way, the forty Crimson Iron Rings on his fingers were all retired, freeing up nine equipment slots.

Zhang Yanhan then immediately took nine Golden quality Life Rings +6 from his Waist Bag and put them on these nine empty fingers. Looking at the neat forty Life Rings on his forty fingers, he nodded with satisfaction.

"Previously, I thought I might have to wait until the Fifth Tier to replace these nine Crimson Iron Rings using extra Free attribute points, but unexpectedly, I easily achieved this small goal just by acquiring an achievement this time."

As he spoke, Zhang Yanhan opened his attribute list to check:

[Strength: 100 (+5[-9])]

[Agility: 100 (+5[-6])]

[Constitution: 100 (+5[-18])]

[Intelligence: 100 (+5[-10])]

[Charm: 100 (+18[-1])]

"Previously, my Charm attribute was only seventy-three points when unarmored, and now it has increased to eighty-three points. I must say, Orange Quality Achievements do have a substantial presence, significantly boosting my attribute values in one go.

Moreover, the exact hundred points of Charm attribute I had now overflowed by one point due to the attribute value enhancement."

Originally, Zhang Yanhan had twenty-seven additional attributes provided by equipment, but after removing nine Crimson Iron Rings, he lost nine attribute bonuses, reducing the equipment-provided additional attributes to eighteen points.

However, the Orange Quality Achievement provided ten points of charm, not only completely filling the gap left by the retirement of the Crimson Iron Rings but also further increasing the Charm attribute by one point.

"Although the Charm attribute has overflowed by one point, it's certainly impossible to remove any more equipment like before, mainly because I don't have much equipment left to remove, other than the Green Ten-piece Set, the lowest quality is the Crimson Iron Heart Necklace and the Crimson Iron Shark Teeth.

But the Crimson Iron Heart Necklace and Crimson Iron Shark Teeth can still serve one more Rank, so there's no rush to remove them."

Zhang Yanhan's Crimson Iron Heart Necklace and Crimson Iron Shark Teeth are both Purple Quality Equipment, which belongs to Second-tier Equipment, so they can stay on Zhang Yanhan until he is promoted to the Sixth Tier before they retire.

However, although the Crimson Iron Heart can serve its last Rank at the Fifth Tier, the Green Ten-piece Set cannot, as it can only be used up to the Fourth Tier. Even if the Hundred Taboos forcibly supports it, it cannot last until the Fifth Tier, as the difference between the Fifth Tier and the First Tier spans four Ranks.

Of course, Zhang Yanhan never intended to wear the Green Ten-piece Set indefinitely. Although the main attribute bonuses of two points each in Strength, Agility, Constitution, and Intelligence it provides are of little use to him, the two points in Charm are still quite advantageous.

Without these two points in Charm, Zhang Yanhan would only have ninety-nine points in the Charm attribute, likely leading to a decrease in his Charm attribute after a Tier promotion.

"It's somewhat frustrating, wishing the Orange Quality Achievement had given a bit more to the Charm attribute, so I could now directly remove the Green Ten-piece Set."

But fortunately, the problem isn't too severe. Zhang Yanhan estimates that he will probably use extra Free attribute points to fill this gap after promotion.

"More attention should be given not to this small gap but rather to the significant decrease in the proportion of my equipment bonus in the Charm attribute value."

Previously, the twenty-seven points of equipment bonus accounted for 27% of the proportion, but now after the equipment bonus dropped to eighteen points, it accounts for only 17.8% of my Charm attribute value."

This shift directly reduced the overall proportion by 9.2%, and for the first time, made Zhang Yanhan's Charm attribute value historically healthy, falling below twenty percent.

Given that not long after entering the Ashen World, Zhang Yanhan received Charm attribute bonuses through the White Ten-piece Set and Green Ten-piece Set, since then, the Charm attribute has remained quite unhealthy.

"Actually, if I were to remove the Green Ten-piece Set early, my Charm attribute would become even healthier..."

Because of the recent decline in charm bonuses, Zhang Yanhan became somewhat desensitized, struggling to discern whether this was a good or bad outcome.

Honestly speaking, if he could, he wouldn't want to rely solely on equipment to boost charm, but he didn't have enough Free attribute points to enhance the Charm attribute, leaving him no choice but to rely on equipment for charm enhancement.

But now that the equipment bonus has decreased to such a low level, as the saying goes, no destruction, no construction. Zhang Yanhan decided to try and find ways to enhance his Charm attribute more actively, aiming to reduce the proportion of equipment bonus in the Charm attribute to ten percent, or even five percent in the future.

Of course, these matters must be resolved at the Fifth Tier, and to enhance the Charm attribute at that Tier, he needs to do these things anyway. It's just a matter of intensifying these efforts now.

After checking the attribute list, Zhang Yanhan proceeded to check his Life Value Limit. He had just put on nine Life Rings, which should significantly increase the Life Value Limit.

[Life Value: 39391/39391 (Constitution×82, current body officially datafied, Life Value Recovery Speed, 71 points per hour.)]

"A Golden Quality Life Ring +6, fused to its limit, can enhance the Life Value Limit by 1.5%. Currently, I am wearing nine Golden Quality Life Rings +6, so I have gained a total Life Value Limit enhancement of 13.5%.

This 13.5% enhancement increased my Life Value Limit from the original 37,576 points to 39,391 points, which means an increase of 1,815 points in the Life Value Limit, not bad.

Previously, I had set a small goal to raise my Life Value Limit to 38,000 points, and now, even the minor goal of 39,000 points has been achieved as well."

Zhang Yanhang plans to set the next small goal at 40,000 points. Currently, he is 609 points away from achieving this goal, which is not much. The probability of achieving it before ascending to the Fourth Tier is quite high.

"When my Life Value Limit was just 39,391 points, it was approximately 8.4 times that of a Fourth Tier Awakened Life Value Limit. Now that my Life Value Limit has increased to 39,391 points, it is already 8.8 times that of a Fourth Tier Awakened Life Value Limit.

Compared to before, it has increased by 0.4 times in Life Value Limit."

Zhang Yanhang had previously set a small goal to reach 9 times the Life Value Limit of a Fourth Tier Awakened. Now he is only 0.2 times away, which means he needs to increase his Life Value Limit by about a thousand points more to achieve it, which seems plausible before ascending to the next tier.

Previously, Zhang Yanhang thought it was difficult to achieve an increase of 0.6 times without wearing any Life Rings, but now that it's only 0.2 times away, it naturally feels much easier.

"Besides the 13.5% enhancement in Life Value Limit, these nine Life Rings also provide a 540% increase in Life Value Recovery Speed, bringing my total recovery speed enhancement from the original 1,960% to 2,400%."

It must be said, this 540% increase is indeed significant. If Zhang Yanhang originally could only automatically recover 1,392 points of Life Value per hour, now he can recover 1,775 points per hour, an increase of 383 points compared to before.

This increase in Life Value Recovery Speed also allowed Zhang Yanhang to finally achieve his goal of compressing the time needed to fully recover one bar of Life Value back to within twenty-four hours once again.

Previously, Zhang Yanhang needed twenty-seven hours to fully recover one bar of Life Value, but now it's different: he only needs twenty-two hours to recover one bar of Life Value, reducing the time by five hours compared to before, two hours faster than the peak speed of twenty-four hours he barely achieved before.

Initially, Zhang Yanhang thought this small goal was hopeless to achieve, but unexpectedly, things took a favorable turn, and he managed to complete it thanks to the Life Rings.

However, Zhang Yanhang's intuition tells him that perhaps this time it's still only a temporary achievement, and the newly increased Life Value Limit might soon push this time back over twenty-four hours, especially since he plans on significantly increasing his Life Value Limit in the future.

In simpler terms, Zhang Yanhang predicts that this small goal will soon start fluctuating back and forth in the future.

Fortunately, it's not a big issue, as Zhang Yanhang doesn't have much demand for Life Value recovery. Achieving this small goal is inconsequential to him.

Therefore, after checking his Life Value Limit, Zhang Yanhang immediately went on to open and review his Shield Value Limit.

[Shield Value: 185,140/185,140 (Life Value Limit × 470%, Recovery Speed: 20% per second.)]

"Previously, my Shield Value Limit was only 176,609 points, and now it has increased to 185,140 points, equivalent to an increase of 8,531 points in the Shield Value Limit."

Regarding the performance of the Shield Value Limit, Zhang Yanhang is still quite satisfied, especially since rounding off the numbers shows almost a ten thousand increase in Shield Value Limit.

"Previously, the small goal I set for Shield Value Limit was 180,000 points, and now I've not only achieved the 180,000-point goal but also completed the minor goal of 185,000 points at the same time."

Zhang Yanhang plans to continue setting the next minor goal at 190,000, according to custom, and he is currently 4,860 points away from achieving this Shield Value Limit, which also isn't a lot.

"Speaking of which, without realizing it, my Shield Value Limit is almost reaching 200,000 points, only 15,000 points away. It seems not too difficult."

Primarily, Zhang Yanhang has confidence in the upcoming Divination Tarot Card, believing that once activated, its set effect will easily help him increase this additional 15,000 points of Shield Value Limit.

"When my Shield Value Limit was only 176,609 points, it was approximately 39.3 times a Fourth Tier Awakened Life Value Limit, but now it's different. Now my Shield Value Limit has reached 185,140 points, already 41.1 times a Fourth Tier Awakened Life Value Limit."

Compared to before, Zhang Yanhang's Shield Value Limit has increased by 1.8 times its Shield Value Limit.

At the same time, it finally allowed Zhang Yanhang to achieve the small goal set earlier to make his Shield Value Limit reach 40 times a Fourth Tier Awakened Life Value Limit, even surpassing it and gaining an additional 1.1 times.

When Zhang Yanhang was 0.7 times away from this ultimate Fourth Tier objective, he felt confident about achieving it easily, and it turns out that it was indeed the case.

"So, the question now arises: given how easily the original ultimate Fourth Tier goal was achieved, should I try for a higher small goal?"

Zhang Yanhang thinks he might as well give it a shot, considering making a new small goal to make his Shield Value Limit reach 45 times a Fourth Tier Awakened Life Value Limit.

Currently, he is 3.9 times away from completing this new ultimate goal overall, which is quite substantial, making it very challenging. Zhang Yanhang doesn't have much confidence in achieving this small goal, but regardless, he must try, after all, what if he succeeds?

But no matter what, this 45 times Shield Value Limit will undoubtedly be Zhang Yanhang's genuine last small goal for the Fourth Tier, and achieving 50 times is destined to happen at the Fifth Tier at the earliest.

"Looking at it now, although the rewards from the Golden Quality Achievement are relatively low in terms of magnitude, because it enhances my very useful Energy Value Recovery Speed, it is actually more useful than the Dark Gold Quality Achievement."

Of course, the most useful is still the Orange Quality Achievement, considering the Orange Quality Achievement not only increased Zhang Yanhang's Charm attribute, but also indirectly helped raise his Life Value Limit.

After exchanging the three achievements in the Achievement Vending Machine, Zhang Yanhang immediately teleported to the Evaluation Settlement Treasure Box of the Umbrella Biochemical Test Field.
