Chapter 326: Chapter 325: Searching for Clues

"But although an increase in the Charm attribute value is indeed a good thing, the abnormality of the Charm attribute value has worsened once again. Just when the proportion of equipment bonuses had just dropped below fifty percent, it’s now threatening to approach this threshold again."

Zhang Yanhang remembered that the proportion of equipment bonuses in his attribute values had decreased to about 46%, but now it had rebounded to 49%, just 1% shy of the 50% boundary line on which it would fluctuate once again.

"Now that the Crimson Iron Teeth have been modified, what should I do next? It seems like there aren’t any other issues to deal with, except for the Divination Tarot Cards, right?"

Zhang Yanhang thought carefully and felt that there indeed weren’t any other matters to continue addressing, so he began to silently actively circulate the Limitless Universe Skill to recover his Energy Value.

Before searching for clues through Multiple Choice, Zhang Yanhang had to ensure his Energy Value was fully recovered. Only in this way could he increase his chances of obtaining information about the Divination Tarot Card, after all, sometimes he might be just a few Energy Value points short of triggering certain options.

If he missed triggering an option by just that small margin of Energy Value, Zhang Yanhang would certainly feel quite frustrated. But if he replenished his Energy Value to full before making an autonomous decision, he could naturally avoid such a situation.

Due to the successful promotion to Second Tier of his Limitless Universe Skill, Zhang Yanhang’s Energy Value Recovery Speed had risen to five times the panel recovery speed, which is roughly two hundred points per hour. It would only take a little over four hours to fully restore his Energy Value.

Therefore, because of this level of recovery speed, Zhang Yanhang, who hadn’t consumed much of his Energy Value to begin with, had already restored it to full in less than half an hour.

"Choice! I need a Divination Tarot Card!" Zhang Yanhang confidently began trying to trigger a choice, but as expected, such a direct question elicited no response from Multiple Choice.

Zhang Yanhang felt that his phrasing in the future had to be more tactful to possibly gain information from Multiple Choice. However, this tactfulness would definitely diminish gradually; he couldn’t start off at a very low level, or he may easily miss some of the useful choices that could potentially be triggered.

"Choice! How can I obtain another Divination Tarot Card?" After speaking, Zhang Yanhang stood still for a second. Just like the previous option, there was still no response from Multiple Choice this time either, as his question was indeed still too bold.

Given that it might be unrealistic to obtain a Divination Tarot Card directly through Multiple Choice, Zhang Yanhang thought it might be time to move on to how he could indirectly acquire one. He began pondering his wording diligently, striving to make Multiple Choice understand his request more precisely.

"Choice! How can I obtain, through a relatively normal channel, a ’Divination Tarot Card[Fake] (Gate of Truth)’ of Blue Quality that might be related, but also might not be, to the ’[Divination Tarot Card - Fool[False] (Gate of Truth)]’!"

The moment the question slipped out, Zhang Yanhang immediately felt a noticeable sensation of resistance in the air around him, without a doubt, Time Pause had arrived.

With the onset of Time Pause, a large array of text options appeared right before Zhang Yanhang.

"Hm? Did the choice get triggered so quickly? It truly is different from the first-tier Multiple Choice, having advanced a tier."

Zhang Yanhang had actually prepared five other questions with progressively decreasing levels of tact, but he didn’t expect that he would trigger the relevant options just on the third round. Undoubtedly, this came as quite a surprise to him.

"Although Multiple Choice has grown much stronger after advancing to the Second Tier, it shouldn’t have triggered the options directly, should it? Is it because I added many restrictive conditions this time? Or is it because I limited it to a Blue Quality Divination Tarot Card..."

Zhang Yanhang felt that the most likely reason was the limit on quality, especially since the Divination Tarot Card would become very powerful later on, but in the initial stage, it was still only a piece of Blue Quality Equipment.

If Multiple Choice hadn’t taken into account its future value and had only measured it against the value of a typical Blue Quality Equipment, then it could indeed result in a situation like the present.

After all, Zhang Yanhang had already been able to obtain a Purple Quality Dilophosaurus Potion from the group leader using indirect methods during his First Tier Period. So, considering this, allowing the advanced Second Tier Multiple Choice to help him obtain Blue Quality Equipment wasn’t likely to be a difficult problem.

After briefly contemplating why he triggered the options directly this time, Zhang Yanhang turned his attention to the text option box in front of him. After all, although studying the patterns of autonomous choice triggers was indeed important, the most crucial thing for him right now was to obtain other Divination Tarot Cards.

[Would you like to obtain a Blue Quality Divination Tarot Card?]

[Option One: Yes (Since you have completely eradicated all the Crimson Iron Ants in the small Crimson Iron Ant Nest Dalagu, you proceed to the Evaluation Settlement Treasure Box in the Outer Zone of the small Crimson Iron Ant Nest Dalagu. From there you claim a corresponding Ashen Treasure Box.

During the opening of this exclusive Ashen Treasure Box of the small Crimson Iron Ant Nest Dalagu, you unexpectedly acquire a Blue Quality Divination Tarot Card.)]

[Option Two: No (Knowing that aside from yourself, there were no other humans, let alone a Nameless Blacksmith or an Alchemist Druid, in the small Crimson Iron Ant Nest Dalagu, you felt that it was all meaningless struggle and decided to give up on obtaining other Divination Tarot Cards.)]

[Option Three: Not Found (In the hopes of finding other Divination Tarot Cards, you once again meticulously explore the entire small Crimson Iron Ant Nest Dalagu. You wanted to use this exploration to look for more traces of the Alchemist Druid.

Unfortunately, after running through every fork and channel of the small Crimson Iron Ant Nest Dalagu, you couldn’t find any trace of the part-time Druid Alchemist.)]
