"Point-Line Demonic Eye" is the most rudimentary enhancement, maintainable for only half a second. Beyond that duration, all point-line patterns vanish. Therefore, you must enter the gene-lock release state before you can use this mode. Each use requires a twenty-minute cooldown before the next activation; the conditions are exceptionally stringent. If prolonged, your brain cannot withstand the strain of the Point-Line Demonic Eye, easily leading to cerebral death. However, its power is equally immense. Even if the target possesses protective artifacts, this enhancement can locate the weakness in their defense layer, allowing you to end the target with a single, decisive shot using your sniping skills!" Zheng Zha, leveraging his Captain's Authority in the "Main God" space, could rapidly search for attributes and items to exchange for enhancements—a unique advantage others lacked.

Throughout this series of searches, he had indeed found numerous attributes or skills that looked exceedingly powerful.

But they were prohibitively expensive, often costing B-Class or even A-Class sub-plots, or simply unsuitable for ordinary individuals. These enhancements were divided into several major systems: those focused on energy, like internal power or the cultivation path; those centered on the physical body, such as gene or physical strengthening; and those enhancing specific aspects, like the ocular enhancement he was recommending to Zero Point—a series entirely dedicated to pupil techniques.

"There are quite a few enhancements in this lineage: the Sharingan, the Byakugan, Clairvoyance, and the Fiery Golden Eyes. However, none of these eye enhancements seem particularly useful. In comparison, Zero Point, what you need most is this Point-Line Demonic Eye series enhancement to maximize your weapon's destructive potential.

You won't have to fear their shields anymore. It's just like what you always needed to do… find the opening, and finish it with one shot!" Zero Point was also a man of few words. While Zheng Zha was still eloquently detailing the Point-Line Demonic Eye enhancement, he had silently moved beneath the "Main God" platform and commenced his upgrade. Moments later, he returned to the spot he had previously occupied, looking as if he had merely retrieved an object, showing no concern about the enhancement he just underwent. The man then silently resumed his former position.

Zheng Zha clapped Zero Point on the shoulder. He knew this man was an exceptionally trustworthy ally, something evident from the battle against the Senzhou team. Zero Point’s marksmanship and combat skills were far beyond what an ordinary person could match. Now, with the addition of the Point-Line Demonic Eye, provided he was given a sniping opportunity, his target was guaranteed to die.

"Then it’s just down to me and Chu Xuan for enhancements… Chu Xuan, what areas do you wish to improve?" Zheng Zha came back to himself and smiled as he addressed Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan, however, shook his head. "I don't have anything specific I urgently need to enhance. I currently possess over 9,000 reward points and one B-Class sub-plot. For our entry into the Resident Evil world, every team member is required to pay one D-Class sub-plot; ten members require ten D-Class sub-plots, meaning one B-Class sub-plot plus one extra D-Class sub-plot. Since I have no immediate personal needs, this B-Class sub-plot can cover the team’s consumption cost for entering the Resident Evil world.

I will use the remaining reward points to exchange for various rare metals, striving to finish upgrading Luo Gandao's robot power system within five days. Simultaneously, I will craft a pair of Charged Mithril Rings for you. The rest of the points will be exchanged for weaponry for Zhao Yingkong and the other two to use. I still have some doubts about their combat effectiveness, so I wish the team could conduct a sparring session before entering Resident Evil…" Zheng Zha was momentarily stunned; Chu Xuan's response was unexpected. Yet, upon reflection, it was entirely in line with Chu Xuan's standard operational pattern: never prioritizing personal gain, always maximizing benefit, even if that maximized benefit accrued entirely to the team. All he required was the maximization of utility.

Zheng Zha couldn't argue much.

He simply nodded. "Actually, I think there is one enhancement attribute very suitable for you: the λdnive body form (What the hell is that? ==#). This system can be miniaturized and integrated directly into your brain. As long as your willpower reaches a certain threshold, you can release your mental energy as offensive power. I believe with your willpower, you can certainly master this system. However, this is an A-Class enhancement. After the next horror movie concludes, we will see if we can gather an A-Class sub-plot for you. This would vastly increase the power of your Gauss Pistol. Even if the opponent has a shield, as long as you focus on the certainty that you can break that shield… you absolutely will break it!" Regardless of how it went, Zheng Zha was the last person left to choose an enhancement. He hesitated over which sword technique to select. The crucial issue was that the chosen technique needed to complement "Explosion" and even "Destruction." Under such extreme speed, the power of every slash and cut was already immense; if he couldn't enhance the cutting power within that state, learning the technique would be pointless. This made his choice exceedingly difficult.

(...There are many sword techniques, but none seem suitable for use during the "Explosion" and "Destruction" states. In those states, there is no need to pursue intricate technique; only two words matter: "Ruthless" and "Fast." And a technique like that...) Zheng Zha closed his eyes, silently searching for relevant information, particularly focusing on moves that were both ruthless and fast. After a long while, he finally found what he was looking for, which brought a wry, almost comical reaction.

"Technique: Ten Steps to Kill. Rating: 197 points. Applicable to those possessing extreme speed and superior reflex nerves. Ten Steps to Kill possesses infinite power, requiring two A-Class horror movie sub-plots and ten thousand reward points."

This "Ten Steps to Kill" perfectly matched what Zheng Zha envisioned. In the "Explosion" and "Destruction" states, reflex nerves were a given. Now, the most pressing issue was… lack of funds! Zheng Zha unwillingly searched a few more times, but aside from Ten Steps to Kill, no other technique truly suited his "Explosion" and "Destruction" states. Enhancing with anything else would be wasted effort, perhaps never even getting a chance to be used. In that case, it would be better to save the reward points to see what weapons he could exchange for Zhao Yingkong and the others.

With that realization, Zheng Zha made his decision decisively. He gave up searching for martial arts techniques and turned to the trio of Zhao Yingkong. He first asked Zhao Yingkong, "Yingkong, what kind of weapon do you want, another dagger perhaps?" Zhao Yingkong seemed lost in thought. When Zheng Zha asked her, the young girl blinked slightly before replying, "Anything that can kill will do, any weapon is fine…" After speaking, the girl resumed that same distant, preoccupied expression.

Zheng Zha managed a bitter smile internally. He knew what she was thinking about. Perhaps the battle with the Demon Reincarnation Squad felt like ages ago to them, but for the three who had just been resurrected, that fight was still vivid. Especially for Zhao Yingkong, the gnawing hatred was not something easily set aside.

Just as Zheng Zha was about to search for weapons suitable for assassination, a thought struck him, and he hastily opened his spatial storage, taking out the transparent greatsword and the silver metallic bow. These were spoils from the last horror movie. Although circumstances prevented him from obtaining the Senzhou team’s storage belt, these two weapons were A-Class legendary magic-type weapons. If they could be utilized, this was an unexpectedly large haul.

Zheng Zha smiled as he presented the transparent greatsword. Although the young girl was still spacing out, her assassin's intuition instinctively took hold when the greatsword approached. She subconsciously grasped the hilt and let the sword’s momentum guide a slight swing before raising the weapon levelly. Only then did Zhao Yingkong realize she was holding a transparent greatsword.

"It seems this weapon's skills can only be used by the one who exchanged for it. However, its transparency attribute remains unchanged, and it has an annihilating effect on energy. I thought you might like a transparent weapon?" Zheng Zha smiled at Zhao Yingkong.

"Its name is the Sword of Victory and Oath."
