Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 275 Critical Attack [Attributes]

"coming?"

The dragon boss of the processing shop put down the big hammer on his shoulder and waved to Lin Lin.

"Come with me, your things are all here!"

Lin Lin followed the old dragon man's steps into the inner room. He had to lower his head when entering to prevent his helmet from scratching the door frame.

After entering the room, Lin Lin saw two sets of heavy armor, one green and one brown, placed quietly on the two armor racks facing him.

Lin Lin didn't rush to look at the green armor, but walked to the brown heavy armor and looked around carefully.

I have to say that the old dragon man in the processing shop has really good craftsmanship. Even though it was severely damaged, he was still able to repair this set of earth and sand dragon armor to the point of being as good as new. It's really good!
Lin Lin was still looking at the repaired protective gear with satisfaction when the old dragon man was already standing next to the green armor, urging Lin Lin to come and see his masterpiece.

So Lin Lin also walked to the front of this new set of equipment and carefully looked at this equipment that looked like a humanoid Thunder Wolf Dragon.

"Take a look at what you think. Does it meet your requirements for heavy-duty full-body armor? This is a new style designed with great effort just for you!"

"I decided to name it the Thunder Wolf Dragon S Series!"

(The S series and X series in this book are only used to distinguish the appearance, and do not affect the actual defense and activation skills according to the upper and lower G positions)
"Thunder Wolf Dragon S?"

Lin Lin reached out and stroked the arm guard on the armor. The sharp claw blade flashed with a chilling edge.

However, in a battle against a large monster, these cool-looking claw blades wouldn't be very effective, right? They just seem a bit flashy and useless.
The suspicion in Lin Lin's eyes did not escape the old dragon man's gaze. He immediately jumped up like an Elu cat whose tail was stepped on, angrily expressing his dissatisfaction:

"Hey! Boy, are you questioning my masterpiece?"

Lin Lin quickly shook his head and said he didn't dare.

But Lao Long has lived for so many years and has seen more people and things than Lin Lin has eaten salt. How can he not see that this kid doesn't agree at all?

He pointed at the seemingly exaggerated arm blade and asked, "Do you know why it is designed like this?"

Lin Lin shook his head honestly.

"For this set of equipment, I've abandoned the traditional armor design concepts of the past, so there won't be any protections like 'defense', 'defense performance', or 'attack'."

"The principle of its protection is entirely through activating the spirit of the Thunder Wolf Dragon remaining in the material!"

"Those arm guard blades and the slightly exaggerated shoulder armor are all designed to mimic the body posture of a Thunder Wolf Dragon, allowing this set of equipment to maximize the true essence of the Thunder Wolf Dragon!"

Lin Lin pursed his lips. It sounded quite mysterious. It just didn't say what the specific effect was. Why did it feel like this set of equipment had almost no use except for a higher basic defense?
"What exactly does it do? You might as well try it on and feel it for yourself."

Hey! This old dragon head is still keeping us in suspense!
Lin Lin's curiosity was piqued. Without a word, he removed his transformable Ice Shark armor and, under the guidance of the workshop owner, put on the S-series Thunder Wolf Dragon armor piece by piece. From greaves, waist armor, to carcass armor, and arm armor, as the Thunder Wolf Dragon armor gradually increased, Lin Lin could see that some of the armor's patterns began to glow. When he put on the helmet, the brightness of those glowing parts reached its maximum. Looking in the mirror beside him, Lin Lin felt like he was truly seeing a young golden Thunder Wolf Dragon. The claws on his arm armor, which he had just criticized, were the brightest part of the whole body.

"How does it feel?"

The old dragon man asked with confidence.

Lin Lin clenched his fists and made a few tentative movements. Although there were no wooden stakes in the workshop for him to chop for testing, he could still clearly feel the difference just by swinging in the air.

"This equipment... is like a living thing. It's affecting my posture. However... my movements have definitely become much smoother, and my power is more comfortable. If I'm in battle, it should be easier to spot the monster's weaknesses."

The old dragon nodded, "Yes, this is one of the effects, critical hit."

Then, as if remembering something, he reassured Lin Lin, "Don't worry, equipment is just equipment, it's completely dead. The reason you feel it's still alive is because the monster material still has their spiritual influence, and the design of this equipment has intensified this influence."

"With the help of my excellent crafting skills, when you're not fighting, this effect will only make you look sharper and more feral. Don't worry!"

Lin Lin felt it carefully for a moment. Although he was a little uncomfortable with it, it seemed that this equipment did not have any adverse effects on him, so he felt relieved for the time being.

"So... this protection only has critical hits? It has no other effects?"

The old dragon man smiled mysteriously, "Don't worry, in addition to critical hit, there are two other protections, but these two are difficult to manifest without fighting."

Seeing Lin Lin eagerly pulling out his shield axe, ready to chop something, the owner of the processing shop couldn't hold it anymore. If he kept keeping it a secret, he was afraid that his shop would be demolished.

"The remaining two protections are called Power Release and Critical Attack [Attribute]! Don't destroy my shop!"

"profound……"

Lin Lin put the shield back behind him with regret and was about to speak when he was suddenly stunned.

Wait, what is that?
It's no surprise that the Thunder Wolf Dragon suit has the power to liberate him, but what is the name of the other protection?
Critical attack [attribute]?
Is it the one in the game that says "When a critical hit occurs due to an attack, the attribute damage caused will increase"?
How do you know that I have a strong-attributed bottle shield axe with ice and water attributes?

Lin Lin's mind was a mess. On the one hand, he was overwhelmed with surprise, but on the other hand, he was completely bewildered. Could this thing work the same in real life as in the game? What was the principle behind it?
Seeing that Lin Lin was intimidated, the boss of the processing shop breathed a sigh of relief, and while tugging at his pigtail, he continued to explain:

"I already introduced the Power Release Divine Protection last time you were with that insect-club-wielding huntress. Its characteristic is that as the battle duration increases or the player sustains a certain level of damage, the residual mental influence of the Thunder Wolf Dragon within their equipment will be greatly enhanced, making their attacks more precise and easier to target the opponent's vital points."

"As for the other critical attack [attribute], it's related to the shimmering lightning patterns on your equipment. When attacking with attribute weapons, it's possible to trigger the lightning patterns to resonate, infusing energy into the weapon and enhancing the attribute damage burst during the attack."

"However, the lightning pattern energy on the equipment is actually quite limited and needs time to recover. Therefore, when attacking continuously, the amplification it can bring will continue to decrease."
