NOVEL WEB Chapter 27: The Effect of the Full Armor Set
<Boss>
LV40+++ <Zombie Marshal>
HP: [69,699/1,150,800]
After melting away the boss's second life and with the boss's health almost depleted, the clones deactivated the chains and reactivated them, binding the boss once again before the effect wore off.
This process repeated, and even without gaining the shadow clones' experience, the skill 'Adamantine Sealing Chains' leveled up to 11.
Looking at a boss that should have taken a long time to defeat, but because of the chains, he could simply melt the boss's health without doing anything... Tanaka began to understand more the terror of the Uzumaki lineage.
It wasn't just the existence of Fuinjutsu. The very existence of the Adamantine Sealing Chains is a massive threat. And, given that most pure-blooded Uzumaki could use them, it's no wonder they were so feared and were destroyed in the anime he watched.
Putting these random thoughts aside for now, Tanaka made the final attack that killed the boss.
"Whoosh!"
"Bang!"

Sequences of text appeared in Tanaka's vision.
"The armor finally came!" Tanaka exclaimed.
Tanaka picked up and examined the information of each item.

'As expected, even the greaves and luck amulet have superior stats compared to the previous ones I got.' Without a second thought, Tanaka swapped out the necklace and greaves, then also equipped the armor.
After that, he opened the status menu.
STR: 75 (+10%) ◄(+26)►
Pondering only a bit, he clicked on confirm.

'I knew it!' Tanaka smiled.
After that, without waiting, Tanaka began to take all the skills he acquired in this dungeon and proceeded to learn them.

Many things began to make sense after acquiring these skills, especially Blood Fury. No wonder the strength increased so much when the Zombie Marshal used this skill. Not to mention, the one he currently had was at level 1. He didn't know what level it was when the Zombie Marshal used it.
Another skill that seemed interesting was 'Whirlwind'. The most obvious drawback was having to keep spinning while the skill is active.
However, Tanaka thought: 'If I use Psychokinesis to make the weapon spin while the skill is active, would it work?'
What he wanted to do was something similar to the game he played in his past life, 'Mu Online'. The 'Dark Knight' class had a skill called 'Twisting Slash' that made the weapon spin around, similar to what he wanted to do.
When he picked up the Mace that just dropped from the boss and equipped it, it looked ridiculous because it was so large in his hands.
Unlike the armor, the Mace did not adapt to him and remained 4 meters long.
Tanaka had to use a lot of strength just to hold the weapon with one hand. He wondered how much strength the Zombie Marshal had to be able to use two of them simultaneously.
But then, there's that. The simple fact of equipping the Mace already increased his strength by +55. Not to mention the damage that the weapon itself causes.
Holding it with both hands, he activated the 'Smash' skill in his mind, and with overwhelming force, he struck downward towards the ground.
"Boom!"
A loud sound echoed.
On the ground, a hole formed due to the impact. The only reason it might not have caused more damage was because he struck a softer sandy area that cushioned the fall, but even so, besides the dust that rose, the hole itself was not small at all, about 5 meters wide and 3 meters deep.
Resting the Mace on his shoulder, he dispelled the shadow clones, and the experience he gained from them came all at once, with the Adamantine Sealing Chains skill leveling up to 19.
[[Adamantine Sealing Chains] (Passive/Active) Lv19 EXP: 41.66% / 50MP per chain]
[Additional active immobilization of 58 seconds per chain.]
Additional cost: 50MP per minute for each active chain.
[Additional 19% STR for each active chain]
[Additional 19% INT for each active chain]
[Additional 4% VIT for each active chain]
[Additional 4% WIS for each active chain]
[Additional 4% DEX for each active chain]
After the cost reached 50MP, it did not decrease further, but new additions, as well as increases to existing additions while having an active chain, were added.
'Status.'
