Chapter 121: 112, Lia is jealous, Ultimate Clear_2
As a chosen hero of the Divine Realm by Kafni, he was equivalent to a distinguished guest of the World Tree Goddess; his treatment was certainly different from that of ordinary adventurers.
Receiving a small blessing from the Goddess was also normal.
Lin Da dug through a small mountain of gold coins and found that piece of orange equipment.
It was a main weapon.
About 20cm long, a silver crescent dagger!
Kafni was overjoyed and clamored to see it.
"I'm the team captain, I'll look at it first." Lin Da flatly refused.
An orange dagger could add some combat power to Kafni... Lin Da secretly thought.
The attributes of the orange dagger popped up:
[Name: Crescent Dagger]
[Type: Equipment-Main Weapon]
[Quality: Orange Rarity]
[Level: 10]
[Attribute Points: Agility+30, Strength+150]
[Equipment Score: 255. Can you hear their wails? Under the crescent, countless souls perished.]
Lin Da internally praised, 150 strength and 30 agility, truly worthy of an orange piece of equipment, it felt almost a waste to give it to Kafni!
But after all, she was also a member of the Phoenix Tail Flower, and Lin Da, as the team leader, arming a team member was equivalent to enhancing himself; there was no difference.
"It's yours." Lin Da handed the Crescent Dagger to Kafni.
"Hahaha, now I'm also a damage dealer!"
The moment Kafni grasped the dagger, she felt as if it was a bomb filled with magic power, any attack made with the Crescent Dagger would get greatly amplified!
"An orange main weapon, my luck is unmatched."
Gale sighed, "Main weapons and accessories are the hardest to come by."
Wild Panther Gite took a more cynical approach, "A team leader with ordinary equipment, willing to give such a dagger to a team member, that's generous."
"Maybe that's his woman?" Gale countered, "I'd also be willing to spend a lot of gold coins on a woman!"
As they joked around, there was not much envy.
It was like a group of adults watching children play a game of marbles, though it was a rare marble, it was just that.
Equipment dropped at the levels where Star-ranked adventurers were, was all above level 30.
Even the lesser valuable purple equipment was worth more than a level 10 orange dagger.
Dawen said, "The merchants are going to be busy."
Hearing his implied meaning, Jite disdainfully nodded, saying, "They're just a bunch of despicable bastards who speculate and manipulate."
The Metal Slime burst out three purple and one orange, successfully proving its value.
Consequently, it indirectly caused the price of Metal Destroyer Potion to spike!
With Lin Da bursting out so many equipment pieces, it was clearly the first kill.
The adventure teams following closely who killed the Metal Slime also had a high probability of dropping magical equipment.
As more teams killed the Metal Slime, the drop rate of equipment would only decrease.
Now was the best time to buy Metal Destroyer Potion.
In fact, as soon as they saw that Metal Slime, merchants had already started buying them from all around.
Their guards had run around the market, and the results were the same: none.
Metal Destroyer Potion was damn hard to purchase.
It was already in short supply and not very effective.
Many adventurers either used it carelessly or simply threw it away.
A money-losing item that couldn't even be sold for one gold coin and just took up space!
It wasn't until the appearance of the Metal Slime that this potion began to shine.
Only those who had watched the live strategy session of the Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team understood the value of the Metal Destroyer Potion.
Apart from White Dove City, adventurers in other places would take at least a day later to get this news.
Nearby were Red Heart City and South Rock City.
The present merchants immediately instructed their subordinates to use long-range communication arrays and have their staff in those two cities make purchases.
Metal Destroyer Potion, buy as much as available!
Unfortunately.
Their plans were doomed to fail.
Three days ago, Lin Da had already commissioned Lulu to go to Red Heart City and South Rock City to purchase Metal Destroyer.
The few potions in those cities, just five bottles, all ended up in Lin Da's hands.
There might be some leftovers hidden away, but certainly not many.
World Tree Secret Realm, first level, Arid Corridor. Continue reading at мѵʟ
Lin Da glanced at the suggestions scrolling across the belly of the sensor ladybug. Many people were debating the value of the Metal Destroyer Potion.
Some said ten thousand Gold Coins, others said twenty thousand, thirty thousand.
But Lin Da didn't immediately take out the remaining four bottles he had to sell.
Now was not the time.
Only when the event had fermented, and the group of merchants had failed, disheveled and dejected, would the price reach its peak.
Lin Da gathered his thoughts and joined his teammates in cleaning up the other spoils of war.
There were a total of 9856 Gold Coins and 11 Level 10 Metal Series Magic Cores.
Lin Da pulled out the burlap sacks he had prepared in advance and had Kafni carry them.
Large adventure teams have Space Rings. Snow Goose had a small one, which he had bought at an auction for 200,000 Gold Coins.
Lin Da pondered that in the future, he should equip one too, to spare his teammates from having to carry large sacks that could hinder their combat abilities.
...
Shortly thereafter, the party arrived at the endpoint of the Arid Corridor.
A Black Magic Dog, one and a half meters long with three heads, guarded the Teleportation Array that led to the clearance point.
In Lin Da's mind flashed information from the game:
BOSS, Three-headed Black Magic Dog, High-level Magical Beast.
Level 6, health points 3000!
As a BOSS of the High-level Magical Beast species, it naturally had extremely high health points, making it a king among Magical Creatures.
How to subdue it was a serious challenge that adventurers must carefully consider.
Lin Da, as usual, held his Rusty One-Handed Sword, presenting himself as a regular Level 5 warrior, teaching the adventurers how to kill the Three-headed Black Magic Dog.
Just by firmly remembering the prelude to each of the BOSS's skill attacks, passing without injury was an easy task.
Lin Da dodged and weaved like a greased eel.
No matter how fierce the attack the Three-headed Black Magic Dog launched, he always managed to dodge at the last moment and then used his Rusty One-Handed Sword to scrape against it.
If he really wanted to kill this BOSS, Lin Da would just throw two Venom Magic Spheres and go AFK.
But this was a strategy prepared for lower-level adventurers, so he purposely slowed his actions, attacking the tri-headed dog while explaining.
The audience outside of the screen was a bit baffled.
Was this really the ferocious beast known as the 'Apprentice Terminator,' the Three-headed Dog?
In Lin Da's hands, it seemed no different from a domesticated pet!
Ten minutes later.
The Three-headed Black Magic Dog collapsed with a thud, dying humiliatingly under Lin Da's Rusty One-Handed Sword.
3000 health points, painstakingly scraped to death by him.
The Secret Realm Guardian collapsed with a thunderous fall, its body transforming into a golden light, splitting into three small orbs that fell above the heads of the Phoenix Tail Flower team members.
Lin Da received a system prompt:
[Team successfully cleared the first level of the trial, received the World Tree Goddess's Divine Gift!]
[Experience Points +1000!]
[You delivered the final blow to the Level 6 Secret Realm Guardian, Three-headed Black Magic Dog, and received 1000 Diamonds!]
The last hit that killed the Secret Realm Guardian yielded Diamonds for Lin Da, not Mystical Points.
He entered his query into the system's Q&A sprite and received an answer:
Killing real wild Magical Creatures outside the Mystic Realm would add Mystical Points to Lin Da, while trial Magical Creatures conjured by the Divine Power of the World Tree Goddess inside the Mystic Realm would yield Diamonds.
In addition, whether killing a BOSS who was a Secret Realm Guardian or a hidden BOSS would earn the entire team the World Tree Goddess's Divine Gift, which meant 'Experience Reward.'
This allowed Lin Da to farm Mystical Points outside to enhance himself and to reap Diamonds in the Mystic Realm to increase points for his team members.
"It's just that the reward for the Three-headed Black Magic Dog is a bit meager, only 1000 experience points,"
Lin Da thought helplessly.
At Level 13, killing a Level 6 BOSS yielded experience points that were almost negligible.
As he thought about it, a settlement page popped up before his eyes.
Just like in the game, after killing a BOSS, depending on the clearance evaluation, the quality of the loot would accordingly increase.
[Clear without taking more than 10 hits: Completed. +2 Stars]
[Kill more than 30 Black Magic Dogs: Completed. +1 Star]
[Burst at least two pieces of Purple Equipment: Completed. +2 Stars]
[No injuries in the second phase of the Three-headed Black Magic Dog: Completed. +2 Stars]
[Kill the hidden Magical Creature, Metal Slime: Completed. +2 Stars]
[Kill the Metal Slime within one skill: Not completed. +0 Stars]
[Total: 9 Stars]
[Ultimate Clear Achieved]
[Gold Coin acquisition increased by 90%, high-quality equipment drop rate increased by 90%!]
