Chapter 529: Chapter 528: Light Golden Equipment [Magic Totem Pole]

"The first option is the familiar Soul Points option, but although the format of the option itself is quite familiar, the content is not familiar.

An option valued at forty thousand Soul Points. I can only say that it’s no wonder it’s a Third Tier One-star Lord Monster; in terms of benefits, it’s indeed much stronger than the Crimson Iron Ant Queen from the Crimson Iron Ant Nest Dalagu in Raccoon City and the Trackers."

Zhang Yanhang remembered that he seemed to have over ten thousand Soul Points left previously. Now, if he were to add these forty thousand Soul Points, reaching fifty thousand Soul Points would definitely not be a problem. So, afterwards, he would probably choose a skill to promote to the Original Stage, or perhaps to upgrade the Skill Level of the Limitless Universe Skill.

"After all, the treasure boxes from those ordinary Dragon Vein Goblins would basically only drop pets lower than the box’s Quality. But the treasure box from the Goblin Chief Nu Mountain directly yielded a pet of the same Dark Purple Quality as the chest, which truly befits a Lord’s Treasure Chest.

Moreover, what’s more critical is that those ordinary treasure boxes, even if they could produce pets, were usually just regular Goblins. However, the treasure box from the Goblin Chief Nu Mountain yielded not only a Dragon Vein Goblin but also the Dragon Vein Goblin Chief Shaman Maka Baga, proving the strength of the Lord’s Treasure Chest.

So, here comes the question: Should I choose Maka Baga or these forty thousand Soul Points?"

Zhang Yanhang was quite torn about this issue because both Maka Baga and the forty thousand Soul Points were very important to him.

The use of forty thousand Soul Points is obvious, but as for Maka Baga, if he were to choose this pet, it might be able to help him concoct Magic Recovery Potions along with various other Alchemy Potions.

After careful consideration, Zhang Yanhang eventually felt that the forty thousand Soul Points might be more important to him. After all, Soul Points can directly strengthen his power and accelerate the time needed for him to advance to Third Tier.

As for Maka Baga, since Zhang Yanhang already had its Alchemy notebook, even if he acquired this pet, it would just save him some time in concocting Alchemy Potions and is not very important. He thought that it probably wouldn’t take too much of his own time to do the concocting.

Plus, since Maka Baga’s power was not very strong, Zhang Yanhang was even less inclined to choose it, especially considering that although Maka Baga with Second Tier Three-Star Power might still be useful now.

But by next week at the latest, he would advance to Third Tier and by then, Maka Baga, who could not keep up with his power growth, would surely be eliminated.

Therefore, for Maka Baga, which would only be valuable for a week before becoming useless, Zhang Yanhang indeed felt that the forty thousand Soul Points were more important since Soul Points spent on himself would never become obsolete.

Thinking this way, Zhang Yanhang couldn’t be bothered to check Maka Baga’s Attribute List and directly opened the second item.

[Item Two]

[Option One: Scroll Dragon Blood (Mixed Reagent), Purple Quality, Artifact]

[Option Two: Scroll Dragon Blood (Magic Power Reagent), Dark Purple Quality, Artifact]

[Option Three: Scroll Dragon Essence Blood (Holy Spirit Blessing), Light Golden Quality, Artifact]

"Scroll Dragon Essence Blood? The main inheritance in Goblin Chief Nu Mountain should be of the Lightning Giant Dragon’s bloodline, so how could it also yield something as good as Scroll Dragon Essence Blood?

I was just lamenting that it might be tough to see a rapid increase in my Energy Value Limit in the future but now it straightaway sends me a bottle of Scroll Dragon Essence Blood. Multiple Choice really still loves me."

Zhang Yanhang said this while starting to check out the ’Scroll Dragon Essence Blood (Holy Spirit Blessing)’ Attribute List, wanting to see if there was any difference between it and the Scroll Dragon Essence Blood from the Lucky Slot Machine. If the effects were different or if it was mixed with Lightning Giant Dragon’s Blood, that would be quite exciting.

[Scroll Dragon Essence Blood (Holy Spirit Blessing)]

[Quality: Light Golden]

[Type: Artifact]

[Origin: Ashen World, Ferren Continent, Rodric Volcano, Red Dragon’s Nest.]

[Usage Effect: Increases the Energy Value Limit by 100 points, Maximum Energy Value Conversion Coefficient +2.]

[Usage Requirements: Intelligence lower than 75 points.]

[Score: 350 (Light Golden items score from 261 to 350)]

[Description: Although he had earned his first fortune in dragon life by selling blood, that money was quickly exhausted by Scroll Dragon Desilia on spell research. Thanks to this, the progress in spell research greatly improved and the speed of research also increased significantly due to ’Krypton Gold’...]

"From the Attribute List, it seems there is no difference between this Scroll Dragon Essence Blood and the one from the Lucky Slot Machine. With that in mind, I can rest easy.

This bottle of Scroll Dragon Essence Blood will directly provide me with an extra hundred points to the Energy Value Limit, and with my current fifty points in the Intelligence Attribute, the increase of +2 to the Maximum Energy Value Conversion Coefficient will also provide me another hundred points to the Energy Value Limit, which adds up to two hundred points.

And this is just the base; subsequently, I can further increase the Energy Value Limit with the Energy Value Limit bonus provided by the S-class Scroll Dragon Bloodline."

Although he had not used this new bottle of Scroll Dragon Essence Blood yet, Zhang Yanhang estimated that after he finished drinking it, his Energy Value Limit might roughly catch up with his Life Value Limit, a small goal he had long anticipated.

"’Scroll Dragon Blood (Magic Power Reagent)’ and ’Scroll Dragon Essence Blood (Holy Spirit Blessing)’ I’ve seen before, but what is this Purple Quality ’Scroll Dragon Blood (Mixed Reagent)’?"

Although he was definitely going to choose Scroll Dragon Essence Blood, Zhang Yanhang checked the Attribute List of ’Scroll Dragon Blood (Mixed Reagent)’ out of curiosity.

He found that it seemed to be a weakened version of ’Scroll Dragon Blood (Magic Power Reagent)’ and could only increase the Energy Value Limit without the ability to increase the Maximum Energy Value Conversion Coefficient.

Since it was just a weakened version, Zhang Yanhang had even less reason to choose it, so after checking the Attribute List for ’Scroll Dragon Blood (Mixed Reagent)’, he immediately proceeded to the next item.

[Item Three]

[Option One: Thin Dragon Vein (Mixed), C-level Quality, Talent]

""

"Option Two: Dragon Vein Goblin (Chief Shaman Goblin Maka Bagga), C-level Quality, Talent"

"Option Three: Dragon Vein Goblin (Goblin Chief Nu Mountain), C-level Quality, Talent"

"Goblin Chief Nu Mountain is already a third-tier one-star lord monster, yet his Talent Quality is only C-level? Is the upper limit of C-level Quality that high? Does that mean if I want to obtain a B-level Quality Talent, I’d need to at least defeat a monster that starts out as a third-tier two-star?"

If Zhang Yanhang had some thoughts about a C-level Talent, the idea of a B-level Quality seemed completely out of reach for him, as he hadn’t even seen a monster of that level yet.

Moreover, an area that started with third-tier two-star monsters might have fourth-tier monsters as middle-level beings, and its lord monsters could very well be fifth-tier one-star creatures.

He would have enough trouble with fourth-tier monsters, let alone fifth-tier ones—the gap in their strength was practically from two different dimensions.

By the way, although Zhang Yanhang’s assumption seemed far-fetched, it was actually based directly on the situation in the Goblin Plain.

After all, the Big Saber Goblins on the Goblin Plain had the strength of first-tier two-star creatures, the higher-level monsters like Big Goblins and Goblin Shamans were second-tier one-star and two-star, and the lord monster was the third-tier one-star Goblin Chief Nu Mountain.

Therefore, Zhang Yanhang’s assumption wasn’t unreasonable; he simply advanced the strength of the monsters by two rank positions.

So, from this perspective, even if Zhang Yanhang advanced to the third tier, he probably still wouldn’t have much hope of obtaining a B-rank Quality Talent.

After all, there was still a two-tier difference between the fifth and third tiers. Even if he could barely defeat them, whether he could find them was another crucial issue. For this reason, he didn’t even contemplate pursuing a B-rank Talent, not now, and probably not even after advancing to the third tier, due to the significant difficulty in acquiring it.

"And more importantly, since I haven’t seen a B-rank Quality Talent yet, maybe even third-tier two-star monsters only have C-rank Talents?

If that really happened, then the difficulty of obtaining them would definitely increase further. It would truly be a complete repeat of the Goblin Plain situation, and there might even be a ’strengthened version’ on top of that, which would be terrible."

Considering that B-rank Talents were too difficult to obtain, Zhang Yanhang thought he should focus on the present; pondering B-rank Talents when he hadn’t even acquired a D-rank Talent was just wishful thinking.

"This is already the third item option, but I haven’t seen a trace of equipment. Getting three light golden-quality pieces of equipment seems to be nothing more than a pipe dream. I just hope that at least one useful piece of equipment comes out of the next two items."

Since he had just obtained the very useful Scroll Dragon Essence Blood from the second item option, Zhang Yanhang’s expectations had diminished considerably. After all, a treasure chest’s overall value is limited; it isn’t possible for every item to be excellent, something not even an Ashen Treasure Box could achieve.

"Item Four"

"Option One: Magic Totem Pole, Quality Light Gold, Equipment"

"Option Two: Chieftain Totem Pole, Quality Dark Purple, Equipment"

"Option Three: Lightning Totem Pole, Quality Purple, Equipment"

"Huh? A Lightning Totem Pole? It’s bizarre that a Goblin Chief’s drop treasure box unexpectedly contains an item dropped by a Goblin Shaman. Fascinating." Zhang Yanhang went on to specifically check the attribute list of the Lightning Totem Pole, verifying that it was the same as the one he currently had equipped.

After examining the attribute list of the Lightning Totem Pole, Zhang Yanhang proceeded to check the attributes of the Chieftain Totem Pole. He was quite curious about this so-called Chieftain Totem Pole, especially since he had never seen such a thing when scanning the Nu Mountain Tribe, yet it now appeared out of nowhere in the treasure box.

As it turned out, this Chieftain Totem Pole seemed to be an enhanced version of the Lightning Totem Pole.

So, after examining the Chieftain Totem Pole’s attribute list, Zhang Yanhang immediately started to check the attributes of the Magic Totem Pole with the highest Quality Light Golden.

"Magic Totem Pole"

"Quality: Light Golden"

"Type: Equipment"

"Origin: Ashen World, Ferren Continent, Rodric Volcano, Red Dragon’s Nest."

"Durability: 70/70"

"Defensive Power: 55"

"Additional Attributes: Energy Value Recovery Speed +90%."

"Usage Requirements: Intelligence 50 points."

"Score: 350 (Golden item score range is from 261 to 350)"

"Introduction: Whether it is because the theme of totem poles limits the customer purchase desire, the Red Dragon Salcano had its alchemists develop a new product called the Lightning Totem Pole, which they produced in large quantities. It sold well initially but eventually became no one’s concern.

Seeing the Lightning Totem Poles piling up in the warehouse, although the business was no loss to him, Red Dragon Salcano could not help but feel distraught, wondering if it was gradually losing its grip on the market. The thought made Salcano’s scales drop in anxiety, and it couldn’t sleep well anymore.

With the intent to recoup its investment quickly and continue to manufacture the next batch of products, Salcano asked the alchemists to temporarily halt the development of the new batch and once again started a massive promotion of the unsold Lightning Totem Poles. Unfortunately, the effort was largely fruitless.

Now seeing the Lightning Totem Poles that he could not sell no matter what, Red Dragon Salcano became even more distressed. Luckily, the blood-selling business remained robust as ever, providing continuous high revenue to cover the losses from renovating the Dragon Nest and gradually replenishing the mountain of gold beneath him.

During one blood withdrawal session, Red Dragon Salcano couldn’t help sharing its recent troubles with Scroll Dragon Desilia. Unexpectedly, Scroll Dragon Desilia immediately said he had a solution and the very next day introduced a major customer from the Beastman Tribe.

Salcano initially thought the so-called major customer wouldn’t be reliable, but with Scroll Dragon Desilia by his side aiding the entire process, they not only sold off the entire inventory but also managed to persuade the Beastman customer to pay a deposit of 180,000 as a preorder for other similar products with just three sentences."
