Fate Reignites: My Rampage in a World Where Time Stops-Chapter 199: Epic Enhancement of Time Stop!

"Has it reached SSS rating?"

A trace of wistfulness flickered through Qin Chuan's eyes.

He really wanted to know where the previous Lake Bottom Death Demon had gone.

But clearly, this wasn't a truth that an A-rated instance could reveal.

Well, it was all said and done, an A-rated instance was completely resolved.

Qin Chuan shook his head, discarding the stray thoughts and looked at the noticeably larger rewards following the SSS rating.

Upon seeing the first item of the rewards, he was momentarily stunned.

The "Core" of Kasakaban?

Thinking of the misfortune the ominous Crystal Core brought to Kasakaban, Qin Chuan felt an impulse to reject it.

However, after clicking on the description, he realized he had misunderstood.

"[[Purple]Kasakaban's 'Core': Kasakaban, having lost his mind under ominous powers, discarded his own 'Core' and merged with the 'Core' of the Lake Bottom Death Demon, becoming the new Lake Bottom Death Demon. The Crystal Clan's 'Core' possesses extremely strong energy transmission capabilities, carrying it can increase Attribute Control by 30% and Attribute Power by 20%.]"

From the item description, his previous guess had been correct.

The item being rewarded at this moment was Kasakaban's abandoned, unaffected by ominous power, "Core." Its amplification effect might not be as good as a Level 10 Starlight equipment entry but, having no cooldown arguably made it as significant as a Level 10 Starlight equipment entry.

This was an absolute treasure.

With the first reward being this generous, Qin Chuan suddenly became extremely interested in the subsequent rewards.

"[[Purple]Scream Ring: Once activated, affects all living targets within range except the wearer, reducing their speed by 50% and rendering them unable to remain calm.]"

Qin Chuan: "6."

Although both were purple items, this Scream Ring, achievable at an A rating, was far inferior to Kasakaban's "Core."

The effect was good, but it did not discriminate between friend and foe.

Let it be, let's check the titles.

Qin Chuan still had a keen interest in titles.

During this venture into Screaming Demon Lake, he distinctly felt his strength enhancing to a certain degree, which was even more pronounced when facing the Lake Bottom Death Demon.

This was the current enhancement effect of the blue title, Corpse Wolf Conqueror.

Without it, Qin Chuan might have had to waste an extra second of Time Stop when facing the Lake Bottom Death Demon.

Now, the conquest reward was a purple title.

"[[Purple]Title - Undead Terminator: After wearing, gain a 30% increase in attack, reduce the target's recovery by 80% (can be stacked with the same name effect, up to 99%).]"

Very good, he liked this title.

Not only did it completely replace the previous Corpse Wolf Conqueror in terms of effects, but it also added a recovery reduction effect. This effect, stacked with the effect of Wolf Teeth of the Dead Corpse, directly reached the cap.

1% recovery...

Almost no difference from none.

After perusing the dungeon conquest rewards, Qin Chuan's gaze moved down, then he suddenly paused.

So it turned out that gaining an SSS rating in an A-level or above instance brought additional conquest rewards.

And this conquest reward…

Thinking carefully, Qin Chuan's expression suddenly turned excited.

Leaving an instance once would increase Time Stop by one second.

If one could enter multiple instances within a day, Time Stop could potentially increase several times.

As long as he conquered an A-level or above instance each time and obtained an SSS rating, Qin Chuan could continuously obtain conquest counts. In this endless loop, the number of instances he conquered had no limits, and Time Stop could increase as much as desired…

No, it couldn't be calculated that way.

Qin Chuan quickly realized the limitations.

Firstly, the number of A-level instances was limited, and up to now, the fourth A-level instance had still not appeared, let alone instances higher than A-level.

Moreover, his strength wasn't yet at a level where he could easily conquer A-level instances without using Time Stop.

Invading Screaming Demon Lake flawlessly, he used 3 seconds of Time Stop and received one chance to raid it.

Calculated like this, the input didn't justify the output.

To rapidly increase his Time Stop duration, he first needed to ensure his own strength was sufficient.

There were generally three methods to enhance strength.

First, breaking through further in Spiritual Beast strength to achieve a higher Transcendent Value.

Second, mastering the Spirit Descent of any Spiritual Beast.

Third, continue to raid instances, obtaining more equipment and better titles.

The first required a certain amount of time, the second needed maximum Affinity first—a bit more was still needed. Water Flower, the one with the highest Affinity, was currently at 98%.

Nevertheless, a negative return had to be endured; consider it an initial investment.

Qin Chuan clicked on "Exit Instance" and immediately chose another A-level instance upon returning to reality: Akyar Eagle Valley.

He entered the instance, ready to begin the raid!

-----------------

"Have you contacted Qin Chuan yet?"

At the Special Affairs Group Headquarters, Feng Yin glanced at Dragon Halberd.

"Not yet," Dragon Halberd shook his head slightly, "He's probably still leveling up in the instance."

Both, having raided an instance yesterday, knew that to switch an instance to a "raided" status, which would not pose any more threats to reality, one merely needed to meet the minimum clearance requirements and kill the instance boss.

However, for players entering the raid, this was only the beginning.

The highest rating for an instance could go up to SSS—the higher the rating, the better the rewards.

Given that one could only raid once per day, naturally one would aim for as high a rating as possible to secure better rewards.

In just one day, this practice had already coined a term: leveling.

The final rating of a raider wasn't made public; only the raider themselves would know.

But obviously, players like Qin Chuan aimed for the SSS-tier.

Without reaching it, he wouldn't leave the instance easily.

"Let's wait a bit longer," Feng Yin shifted his gaze to Ji Huai, who sat opposite with his arms across his chest and his eyes closed in meditation leaning against an armchair. "Once we clarify the situation with the Screaming Demon Lake, we can make a move."

During yesterday's instance raid, they had witnessed Ji Huai's immense strength post-Spirit Descent for the first time.

This ability, easily annihilating a B-level instance boss, also gave them a slight inkling to conquer a higher A-level instance.

Although he and Dragon Halberd weren't as strong as Ji Huai, the Dungeon Talent Effects of Insight and Holy Sanctuary could greatly assist Ji Huai, and together, tackling an A-level instance wasn't out of reach.

Among the three existing A-level instances, there was one that looked suitable.

The 3-person-restricted A-level instance: Akyar Eagle Valley.

This being one of the earliest instances, they needed to raid it swiftly.

They were waiting for Qin Chuan so they could gain some insights on A-level instances from him before embarking on the raid, increasing their chances of victory.

Insight never entered a battle unprepared.

"Eh? Fuck!" Dragon Halberd, bored while refreshing the instance list, suddenly noticed something amiss. "Why does Akyar Eagle Valley show it's being raided?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Yin opened the instance list and paused, "Wait three minutes."

Players entering the instance would immediately be sought out by the creatures therein; any weak individual merely trying their luck would definitely not last three minutes.

Three minutes later, seeing that Akyar Eagle Valley was still listed as "In Progress," Feng Yin shook his head helplessly.

"It seems Yue Li has beaten us to it."
