"My lord, what is this? It's so impressive."
Receiving such praise, Yun Xiao Yi smiled and said, "This is the fine item I mentioned to you earlier."
"Come on, take out your Tianya Spear and stab me."
"Huh? What a peculiar request! Have I done something wrong to offend the Deity?"
Zhao Yun stood respectfully, not daring to make a sound.
Yun Xiao Yi cleared his throat and explained, "The ancient book I obtained contains a portion of sealed Magic power. I have now transferred this Magic power onto my Chest Plate. Asking you to stab me is to test how effective this specially enhanced Chest Plate really is."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yun immediately understood. He had been entrusted with the task of challenging a deity, and he felt a surge of excitement within him. He quickly shook his head, trying to cast aside any discomfort.
"Deity, I will proceed now."
Zhao Yun nodded, spreading his arms wide to fully expose his chest. He reminded, "By the way, this Chest Plate has increased Counter Damage capabilities, so be careful when you strike; the attacker will receive a percentage of damage in return."
Hearing Yun Xiao Yi's words, Zhao Yun nodded several times. His movements became much gentler as he raised his spear and aimed it directly at Yun Xiao Yi's chest.
The sharp tip of the Ya Jiao Qiang made contact with the Enchanted Book iron Chest Plate. A crisp sound of collision echoed through the air. Yun Xiao Yi felt a faint force push against his chest; this insignificant strength barely reduced his health even after accounting for the damage reduction provided by the Armor.
"Did you not use enough strength?"
Turning to Zhao Yun, he saw him stagger back a few steps and spit out a mouthful of blood.
The counterattack was that powerful?
Seeing Zhao Yun injured, one of his younger siblings shouted, "Elder Brother!" They quickly rushed forward, one on each side to steady the staggering Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun took a deep breath, assuring himself that he was fine. After pushing away the hands of the two, he steadied himself and stood firm.
Yun Xiao Yi was also surprised by the outcome of the experiment, but he couldn't bear to see Zhao Yun get hurt while trying to help him. He quickly grabbed a bottle of milk and brought it closer.
Zhao Yun obediently opened his mouth and took in a large amount of milk. His previously pale face, marked by blood from earlier, gradually regained some color. However, the milk's effect was merely to eliminate harmful conditions; it did not truly restore his Health Points.
If one were to consider how to recover from injuries, ordinary people could only rely on rest or the food found in "Minecraft." Once their hunger was satisfied, the energy contained in "Minecraft" foods would quickly repair bodily damage. Alternatively, potions and healing arrows could also provide rapid recovery. Unfortunately, these resources were not currently accessible; they would need to wait until the Hell Gate was opened and Hell Warts were obtained for crafting.
Fortunately, Zhao Yun had consumed nearly two-thirds of a "Minecraft" Cooked Fish before sustaining his injuries. The power stored within the Cooked Fish rapidly spread throughout his body, providing timely relief to his pain.
Yun Xiao Yi began to help him gradually recover his lost vitality. However, since he had only ingested a third of the food, his blood energy only saw a slight improvement before the effects faded away.
"Do you feel any better now?" Yun Xiao Yi asked with concern.
Zhao Yun nodded, expressing gratitude for the Immortal Sir's care, stating that he felt much better now.
Yun Xiao Yi nodded slightly and then said, "Tell me about your feelings in that moment just now."
Zhao Yun furrowed his brow slightly as he slowly recalled the sensation from earlier: "At that moment, when I pierced through your Chest Plate with my weapon, I felt an invisible force strike me like a hammer. But this impact didn’t come from an external source; it felt more like it penetrated from within my body."
It felt as if this power struck directly at my very core. Yun Xiao Yi blinked and pondered for a moment.
In the game, backlash typically results in a direct reduction of Health Points. In reality, while there isn't a concept of Health Points, the way it affects internal organs to simulate blood loss seems quite reasonable, especially since some settings in my world are inherently illogical. Thus, what is considered reasonable here is merely within the framework of game logic.
What astonished Yun Xiao Yi the most was the magnitude of this backlash damage. How could it be so strong? Logically, protective armor should mitigate some of the damage. Even if we removed the mitigated portion, only a small amount of damage should remain. Furthermore, the Thorn Enchanted Book does not cause backlash; it only counters.
As Yun Xiao Yi was deep in thought, his gaze fell upon the Armor value displayed above him. He lightly slapped his forehead as realization dawned on him. Oh right, in Minecraft...
