The light screen dissipated, and Bai Ye glanced up at the Death Amusement Park once more.
Many people were rushing out. Although the Deer Head blocked the entrance, because it could only attack one target at a time, it allowed many to seize the opportunity and escape.
"It seems quite a few people will survive this time."
Bai Ye pursed his lips, then turned and left, quickly disappearing into the mist surrounding the Death Amusement Park.
Since his objective had been achieved, Bai Ye naturally had no intention of lingering. How many people escaped from the Death Amusement Park had nothing to do with him.
After obtaining the spirit body, Bai Ye's focus shifted away from the Death Amusement Park, as he had a new goal.
Regarding his physical body, Bai Ye felt he could stop here for now. Subsequent enhancements could be achieved through the continuous strengthening of his body by the Five Spirit Disk.
Therefore, Bai Ye decided to enhance his strength in other aspects.
Bai Ye felt he should focus on two areas. The first choice was abilities.
Abilities from the ability world were very suitable for combat. However, Bai Ye disdained ordinary abilities. As for powerful abilities, he knew of a few ways to obtain them, but with his current strength, he felt he had no chance to acquire them.
Thus, the second choice – equipment!
Despite having many items, the only one truly worth mentioning was the Frost Sword. The Roar of the Evil Dragon and the Six-Prism Shield were both obtained from the gacha machine.
As for the other items, they all had their issues to varying degrees.
The Tarot cards were single-use consumables; once used, they were gone.
The Cursed Cross dealt continuous damage. This type of item was suitable for prolonged battles, as its power was usually not great.
The Grim Reaper's Strike was powerful enough, but the limitations of a sniper rifle were self-evident. It was primarily used for long-range assassinations, and in regular combat, it was almost useless.
The Golden Thread Armor was of blue quality, which was quite good. However, Bai Ye did not know martial arts and could not trigger the "Martial Stance" effect, which increased the power of martial arts by 10%. This meant one-third of its effect was wasted.
There were also the fossils of the Pterodactyl and the Super Stone, which Bai Ye had no idea how to use.
Therefore, after reviewing everything, Bai Ye realized that the only item with very high cost-effectiveness was the Frost Sword.
Given this, Bai Ye felt he needed to make a plan.
First, he needed a defensive piece of equipment. The Six-Prism Shield was quite useful.
Secondly, it would be ideal to get another versatile weapon like the Frost Sword. A melee weapon would be the preferred choice, because when the Frost Sword attacked remotely, Bai Ye's hands would be free. The secondary option would be to get another mid-to-long-range weapon similar to the Frost Sword, which, when used together, could create suppressive fire. When close combat was needed, he could wield the Frost Sword.
Beyond offense and defense, Bai Ye thought that acquiring some special type of equipment would also be worth considering.
What constituted special type equipment?
One could refer to the spirit body. The spirit body was a special type of ability.
Overall, the spirit body could be utilized in regular combat through spirit body switching. Wall-phasing and low-altitude flight were also applicable in combat. However, if purely for combat, the value of the spirit body would decrease, as there were many combat abilities far more useful than it.
Therefore, the main value of the spirit body lay in its ability to be used in combat while also possessing extremely strong life-saving effects.
However, "saving one's life" was not something needed at all times, thus it was an ability that was exceptionally useful at specific moments. Such an ability could be called a special type ability.
Similarly, equipment with the same function would be considered special type equipment.
The utility of special type equipment was generally not high, but it was extremely useful in certain situations. This led to a low frequency of replacement for special type equipment. As long as the equipment's effect was sufficiently useful, even an ordinary white-quality equipment could be kept and used.
However, there was a troublesome aspect to this type of equipment: it often relied heavily on fate. It was quite difficult to specifically search for equipment with a particular effect.
As he pondered equipment, Bai Ye couldn't help but recall some things from his past life.
Back then, Bai Ye, as someone who could reach the end of the World Battlefield, naturally enjoyed great renown. He was known as "an army of one" because he primarily followed a technological and mechanical path, possessing his own mechanical legion. Mechanical items relied almost entirely on equipment, so many people assumed Bai Ye was an equipment-based player.
In reality, besides the gacha machine, Bai Ye's primary reliance in that era was not on equipment, but on an ability from the ability world called "Mechanical Reconstruction." Under Bai Ye's ability, any metal object could be assembled into combat machinery. As long as his mental attribute was sufficiently high and he possessed enough metal items, Bai Ye could assemble a mechanical legion.
As for this life…
Bai Ye had indeed considered the Mechanical Reconstruction ability and knew how to obtain it. However, this ability had a significant drawback: without sufficient metal items, Bai Ye was completely helpless, and his mechanical legion would instantly become solitary.
Of course, there was another more important reason: the Mechanical Reconstruction ability was not something Bai Ye could obtain at the moment. It was located within a space station called "Salem," which housed countless battle angels. Bai Ye felt that with his current strength, let alone going there to acquire the Mechanical Reconstruction ability, he wasn't even sure if he could get inside. Even if he managed to sneak in, he would be easily blown to smithereens.
Therefore, Bai Ye decided to put aside this ability for now and focus on the present.
*Snap!*
Suddenly, Bai Ye thought of something and clapped his hands together.
"How could I forget about that thing?" Bai Ye exclaimed excitedly. "Although it became a bit lackluster after the World Battlefield entered the mid-to-late stages, it was extremely useful in the early stages!"
Bai Ye thought of a set of excellent items that were both offensive and defensive. If he could obtain them, both his offense and defense would be satisfied. Moreover, those items had special effects and could be considered special type equipment to some extent.
Bai Ye was the type of person who acted as soon as he thought of something. Since he had already decided on his goal, he naturally intended to act immediately.
However, Bai Ye felt he needed to plan his route first. The Death Amusement Park was located in the fringe area of this supernatural region. This meant that no matter where Bai Ye went, as long as it was across regions, he would almost certainly have to traverse a large portion of the supernatural region.
"Then I'll head to the Soul Society first!"
After making his decision, Bai Ye began his journey.
