As the contestants stopped talking, Zheng Gongli walked up to the stage. It seemed like Zheng Gongli was having a hard time recently. He did not even bother with the usual nonsense and went straight to the point.
"There are a lot of things to do today, so let's speed things up," Zheng Gongli said. "The first thing we need to do is to award the prizes for the first, second, and third place finishers. We would like to thank the Tianyu Corporation for their support."
As he spoke, a staff member carried three chests into the conference room. Just like last season, the prizes for the first, second, and third place finishers were three treasure chests. The first place winner received an Epic Treasure Chest, the second place winner received a Gold Treasure Chest, and the third place winner received a Silver Treasure Chest.
Li Huailin's eyes lit up. He had almost forgotten about this. An Epic Treasure Chest meant that it was at least an Epic equipment. Of course, it was also possible for a Legendary equipment to appear.
The first to try his luck was the Magic Kitchen. Silver-grade equipment was useless to him, so he could only try to see if the treasure chest would drop a higher quality item. However, the result was tragic. Not only did the Magic Kitchen drop a Silver-grade piece of trash, but it was also something that he could not use.
"A blue shield …" The Magic Kitchen was speechless. As a Warlock, he could not equip a shield. What was the use of this thing? He threw it into his bag and prepared to buy the Auction House.
Then, it was the second place finisher, Heaven's Corner. Gold Treasure Chests usually dropped better items. As soon as Heaven's Corner opened the treasure chest, a purple light appeared. It was obvious that this Gold Treasure Chest had dropped an Epic item.
Therom's Inscription Staff (Epic): Two-handed Staff, Attack 90-100, Attack Speed: Extremely Slow, Strength + 16, Constitution + 55, Intelligence + 68, Spirit + 40, Increases all spells and healing by 281, Spell Accuracy + 10%, Spell Damage + 10%. Additional Skill: Focus Focus: Recovers 40% of the user's Mana for 5 seconds. Requires continuous casting. If interrupted, all Mana recovery will disappear. Cooldown: 2 minutes. Equipment Requirement: Intelligence 350, Spirit 300 Class: Mage, Priest, Warlock.
The instant the equipment's Attributes were revealed, everyone gasped. This item was simply too amazing. Not only did it provide a lot of Attributes, but it also had a very useful Skill. Mana Recovery was one of the most important Skills for magical classes, not to mention a 40% Mana Recovery Skill.
However, it was awkward that God's Separation was a Knight and couldn't equip it. God's Separation wasn't very disappointed. He glanced at True Wind on the side, obviously intending to ask about it. However, True Wind quickly shook his head. The staff he wielded was also an Epic ranked staff. Moreover, it was more suitable for him. Although the staff's Attributes were very high, its Mana Recovery effect overlapped with his hidden class's ultimate skill, the Summoning Crystal. It was a waste to give it to him.
Separation from Heaven nodded and walked over to Jiang Xueyi's side, "Here you go. Do you have enough attributes?"
"Me?" Jiang Xueyi said in surprise.
"Take it." Li Huailin, who was next to him, said, "We need your strength now."
"Oh, yes, yes." Jiang Xueyi nodded his head. Then, he immediately rubbed his new staff and began examining it. The surrounding pro players were a little envious, but they didn't say anything. The staff's Attributes were more suitable for attack-type mages. Apart from True Wind, the highest ranked mage was Jiang Xueyi. Since True Wind didn't want it, Jiang Xueyi naturally took it.
However, at the very least, everyone understood one thing. Everyone was really helping each other now. They could even give away Epic-ranked items. Unknowingly, the trust between the teammates had increased by another notch.
Finally, it was Li Huailin's turn. An Epic Chest contained at least an Epic item. It wasn't impossible for Li Huailin to obtain a Legendary Weapon. Even if he couldn't obtain it, it would be a feast for his eyes.
Li Huailin was indeed in need of some equipment right now. He was almost Level 80, yet he was currently wearing Level 50 equipment. He really couldn't afford to wear it any longer. However, the previous two Treasure Chests had dropped a bunch of random items that his class couldn't use. Li Huailin hoped that he could help out.
Under everyone's gazes, Li Huailin opened his Treasure Chest. Very quickly, a purple light flashed. The surrounding players sighed. It still wasn't a Legendary item. However, everyone still looked at the equipment that appeared. It looked like a Mage robe.
"Cloth Armor?" Li Huailin was also surprised. Why did it keep dropping Mage equipment? Was he going to give it away again? However, when he looked at the equipment's Attributes, he discovered that it wasn't for Mages.
Shadow Whisper Robes (Epic): Back, All Attributes + 5, All Resistances + 10 Passive Skill: Stealth Stealth: Passive. At night, if you stand still for 5 seconds, you will automatically enter a Stealth state, making it difficult for lower-leveled enemies to discover you. Movement, attack, or cast skills will lose Stealth effects. Equipment Requirement: Level 60. Class Requirement: None
"Huh?" Everyone was stunned when they saw the item. This robe was too weak. It only added 5 to all attributes. However, upon closer inspection, it wasn't like that at all. It wasn't a robe, but something that could be worn on one's back.
In the game, there were a total of three types of items that could be worn on one's back. The first type was a Hunter's Quiver. Only Hunters could wear this. Its Attributes basically increased Shooting Speed and the like. The second type was a cloak. Anyone could wear this, but so far, the cloaks that had been found had no Attributes. In other words, the cloaks had different patterns and colors. They were basically just accessories. The third type was a robe that could be worn on the outside. This was the kind that Li Huailin wore when he was disguised as Wocha. It could cover his face, but it still had no Attributes. The robe that Li Huailin had obtained was too strange. Not only did it increase Attributes, but it also added a skill.
From the description of the skill, it was a weaker version of Stealth. Compared to Stealth, it had more limitations. It could not be moved, and it could only be used at night. It also took 5 seconds to enter Stealth (Stealth was used immediately after). However, this was a skill that could be used by all classes. It was too easy to use. Everyone was a professional player, so they could clearly see the benefits of this item.
Li Huailin was delighted when he saw this item. This item … He was now Level 78. It was obvious that no player's level was higher than his. Coupled with his large AoE Kill Aura, this item was extremely accurate for sneak attacks. However, the only thing that Li Huailin was not satisfied with was the fact that this item was not a cloak, but a robe. After wearing it, the system would hide the player's face by default. This was something that Li Huailin couldn't tolerate. He could tolerate the Undead hiding their faces, but the humans were hiding their faces too? He couldn't tolerate it. However, this item was indeed good, so it was better to keep it. He could take it out when he needed to sneak attack.
Seeing Li Huailin throw this thing into his bag, no one felt surprised. This thing was indeed a good thing. They even made up a few scenarios in their minds that could be used. However, this thing was Li Huailin's Treasure Chest. He could also use it, so naturally, it belonged to him. There was no doubt about it.
Apart from this, the three Treasure Chests also came with a completely random Recipe. Li Huailin's Treasure Chest came with a Forging Recipe. However, it wasn't anything good. It was just a piece of Blue equipment, the kind that could only be used to increase Blacksmiths' Proficiency. Hence, Li Huailin gave it away. Soon, the prizes of the finals were distributed. Everyone talked for a while before slowly returning to their seats. There were still many things to deal with later.
"Alright." Zheng Gongli did not interrupt the conversation between the professional players. He waited until they were almost done talking before returning to the stage again. Then, he said, "Now that the National Finals is over, I've already said what I wanted to say at the award ceremony. I won't repeat it now. Next, let's focus all our attention on the National Cup."
"Okay." Everyone immediately became serious.
"So, first of all, let's do the same as before. Now, let's determine the captain of our Team Hua Xia." While speaking, Zheng Gongli looked at Li Huailin. Although he knew the result, he still had to go through with it. "Of course, everyone should know the importance of the captain. I won't say it anymore. Now, you can elect the captain."
Just as Jiang Xueyi finished speaking, he was about to stand up and recommend Li Huailin. However, before he could stand up, Li Huailin suddenly stood up.
"I … am the captain of Team Hua Xia." Li Huailin suddenly stood up and said. Not only Zheng Gongli, but the surrounding professional players were also stunned. Generally speaking, in this kind of situation, one of their subordinates should take the lead and then everyone would agree. Jiang Xueyi also knew what role he should play and was ready to speak up. He did not expect Li Huailin to recommend him. This … this was really unheard of.
"Then … does anyone have any objections?" Li Huailin ignored everyone's surprised gazes. He turned his gaze to the side and stared at two people. One was Sharpshooter, and the other was Yin Xiaoyin. "If anyone has any objections, it's best to say it now. I'll say it again. If no one has any objections, I'll be the official captain. If anyone objects, I won't be polite anymore."
