Under the bright starry sky, scenes flashed past like a movie in fast forward.
Killing Black Wind Bandits Leader Ian at the Cliff Ore Vein.
Fighting the three Bosses of the Plague Spirit in Maple City.
Ambushing the survivors at Black Iron Canyon. Killing the vanguard commander, Giant Hammer Berserker Kail Mann.
Killing the Blood Spear Clan's Warlord, Death Hunter Kaierhan in the battle outside Black Rock City.
Amidst the tide of zombies, he killed the commander of the survivors, Colossal Battle Overlord Absolom.
In the Cain Dimension, the two of them explored for a month, and their harvest was unprecedentedly rich.
"Exploration Dimension: Cain Dimension."
"Time used: 29 days, 23 hours, 45 minutes, 51 seconds."
"Range: Northern border of the Gorse Empire, White Stone Town, Red Leaf Territory, Black Rock City."
"Based on the missions you have discovered and completed, you have received 27,338 Psionic Points as a reward. Current total Psionic Points: 112,466 Psionic Points. "
"You have accumulated 4,306 points of Cain Dimension Popularity. Your Popularity in the Cain Dimension World is Level A (World Famous). "
"You have received Level A title: Harbinger of Misfortune."
[Harbinger of Misfortune: Your existence indicates the arrival of misfortune. After the combat state lasts for five seconds, all nearby targets (friend or foe, including yourself) will be affected by the misfortune effect, adding a random abnormal status. The longer the combat time, the more abnormal status layers, and the greater the misfortune effect's range. The misfortune effect's priority is 8, and it will not be affected by control reduction skills below Priority 8.]
"This is … a self-destructing truck?" Bai Xiaowen was dumbfounded.
"What kind of Level A title is this … I feel that it's not as useful as the Level B title, Killing Maniac!" Li Shuyi said, "The misfortune effect actually works on teammates and oneself. Isn't this a suicidal title?"
Bai Xiaowen thought for a moment and said, "This title is not completely useless. When the enemy is outnumbered, it can be used to … self-destruct? Forget it, it's hard for me to improve my title. I don't expect any title to be more useful than the Strongest Scholar. "
Li Shuyi imagined the scene of Bai Xiaowen jumping into the enemy camp with the title of Envoy of Misfortune. He chuckled.
The + 1 effect of the Strongest Brainiac's combat skills and combat specialty was indeed outstanding, especially since most of Bai Xiaowen's combat skills were at LV3. With the bonus of the Strongest Brainiac title, he could enjoy the LV4 enhancement in advance.
One thing to note was that the enhancement effect of any skill at LV4 could not be changed once it was drawn. If the skill returned to LV4 due to special reasons, the enhancement effect would directly become the result of the previous draw and would not be drawn again.
For example, Bai Xiaowen, who had the title of "The Strongest Scholar", enjoyed the special effects of Level 4 skills in advance. If he wasn't satisfied with the special effect, he could take off the title and let his skill level drop back to LV3, and then wear the title again to let his skill level drop back to LV4. Could he redraw the special effect?
The answer was: You wish.
Li Shuyi's World Fame in the Cain Dimension was 2,317 points, belonging to the level of B-level fame. She received the title of "Leader Hunter."
[Leader Hunter: Damage to Leader/Hero mode targets + 15%.]
This title was different from the silly title that Bai Xiaowen received. The description was simple and the effect was brutal. It was more useful than the Killing Maniac title that Li Shuyi received previously, especially when dealing with Bosses.
Next, it was time to enhance equipment. After returning from the Cain Dimension, the two of them had accumulated a total of more than 110,000 Psionic Points. They also had a few new Gold equipment and a four-star Equipment Enhancement Card.
There was no doubt that their important equipment would be upgraded to + 4. The four-star Equipment Enhancement Card could upgrade an important piece of equipment to + 7.
Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi had some differences on the issue of where to use the four-star Equipment Enhancement Card.
Li Shuyi felt that the previous upgrade to + 7 was used on her Demonic Fire Jade Pendant. This time, it should be Bai Xiaowen's turn.
Bai Xiaowen had a different opinion. "Upgrading to + 7 should be based on the principle of maximizing combat power. For now, there is no need to spend a huge amount of Psionic Points on any of my equipment to upgrade to + 7. The increase in combat power is not obvious. You should be using your new Gold-tier weapon, the Red Leaf Lord's Glorious Longsword. "
The effect of strengthening a Gold weapon was definitely higher than that of a Blue weapon. For every upgrade, it could increase the attack power by 10%. A Blue weapon could only increase it by 6.7%. Moreover, the basic attack power of a Gold weapon was better than that of a Blue weapon.
Moreover, the Red Leaf Overlord's Glory Sword had a practical active skill, "Blood Drain." After upgrading, the skill's cooldown could be reduced.
Finally, this sword was rare and did not need to be bound. When necessary, Bai Xiaowen could borrow it to use. When Li Shuyi had a better replacement weapon in the future, he could use it to trade. No matter how he looked at it, he would not lose out.
After Bai Xiaowen analyzed the reason, Li Shuyi did not insist and chose to upgrade the Red Leaf Overlord's Glory Sword to + 7.
This time, his luck was not very good. He spent 40,000 Psionic Points to upgrade it to + 6. However, at this stage, it was much easier. With the help of the 4-star Equipment Enhancement Card, he burned a Gold-ranked spear, a Blue ranked knight's greatsword, and two White ranked weapons. After that, the enhancement success rate was directly increased to 100%.
Upgrade successful!
The sword's body was blood-red like a maple leaf. With a slight wave, it brought out dazzling light particles. The visual effect was simply amazing.
After upgrading it to + 7, the weapon's additional attack power increased to 14-27. It was more than double the attack power of the + 4 Refined Rapier. Moreover, the cooldown of the equipment's additional skill, [Blood Drain], was reduced by 35%. It went from 12 hours to less than 8 hours.
[Red Leaf Overlord's Glory Sword] + 4 Enhancement Special Effect: Blood Thirst: Absorbing the enemy's blood will cause magic damage equal to the user's level * 8 and heal the user's HP by the same amount.
+ 7 Enhancement Special Effect: Absorb Strength: While absorbing blood, the target's strength will be absorbed at the same time. The value is equal to the user's level * 2. The absorbed strength attribute will be temporarily added to the user's body for 30 seconds.
"As expected, the + 7 special effect is worth the investment of a large amount of Psionic Points." Looking at the two additional effects, Bai Xiaowen nodded and praised. Including the 70% increase in attack power, the benefits of upgrading this longsword exceeded the benefits of upgrading the Demonic Fire Jade Pendant.
Blood Thirst increased the value of Absorption by 60%. When Li Shuyi used the Blood Drain skill now, it would cause 32 points of theoretical magic damage and heal the user's HP by the same amount. Against a target of the same level, it could at least heal 20 points of HP. It was better than steamed buns. Most importantly, it did not conflict with food.
As a + 7 special effect, Absorb Strength was even more powerful. With Li Shuyi's current level, he could absorb 8 points of the target's strength and add them to himself. That was 16 points of strength. What kind of concept was this? Even a standard Level 4 strength-based Awakened might not be able to reach this value in terms of basic strength.
It could weaken the opponent's damage while increasing his own. It was undoubtedly a divine skill.
The two of them then upgraded their other important equipment to + 4.
On Bai Xiaowen's side, the + 4 special effect of the exquisite gold necklace [Judge's Determination] made the shield value of the active skill "Shelter" become Constitution * 3. The original 44 points of shield became 66 points.
The + 4 special effect of the [Tribal Feather Cloak] added a new description to the active skill "Glide." The falling speed was further reduced, and the user could change direction many times in the air.
The + 4 special effect of the [Demon Book of Ravings] was more amusing. The active skill "Ravings" had an additional "Nonsense" effect. When the skill hit the target, it could force the target to repeat the user's previous sentence.
Bai Xiaowen had long categorized the [Demon Book of Ravings] as a type of entertainment equipment. Now that there was an additional "Nonsense" effect that did not have much meaning, it looked like he was going to go further and further down the path of amusing idiots … What a waste of more than 5,000 psionic points to upgrade to + 4.
Other equipment such as [White Eagle's Attack], [Ring of Pain], [Tail Bone of Petrified Lizard], and so on had a certain increase after upgrading them to + 4. However, the increase was not significant and was far less obvious than the enhancement of weapons and armor.
Li Shuyi upgraded the [Levitation Necklace], [Viper's Leather Shoulder Pads], [Radiant Cloak], and [Tough Belt]. They were all new gold equipment.
Among them, the + 4 special effect of the [Levitation Necklace] was the most powerful. When the "Levitation" effect was triggered, the damage of secondary attacks would be reduced by 50%! This further reduced the chances of being instantly killed by Agility-type Bosses. As for the other equipment, the increase was not high, so there was no need to go into detail.
The two of them spent a total of nearly 80,000 psionic points to upgrade.
After that, the two of them checked their respective storage spaces and broke down some of the trash bound equipment that they did not need into psionic points. In the end, the total amount of psionic points on the team account was about 35,000.
While checking the storage space, Bai Xiaowen accidentally saw the [White Stone Hill's Permanent Fief Order] flickering with a faint light. He held it in his hand curiously and felt a slight surge of heat.
The [Red Leaf Hill's Permanent Fief Order], which he obtained from the former Red Leaf Hill's Permanent Fief Order, also flickered with a faint light.
A prompt message from the Spiritual Realm's rules sounded. "The [Permanent Fief Order] is an important item that communicates between you and the Cain Plane. You can integrate the [Red Leaf Hill's Permanent Fief Order] with it."
Bai Xiaowen chose to integrate it. To his surprise, the integration did not cost him any psionic points this time. It was rare for the Spiritual Realm's rules to be so greedy for money to be restrained.
After the integration, the [Permanent Fief Order] seemed to have been filled in with the last piece of the puzzle, and there was a sense of completion.
[White Stone Hill's Permanent Fief Order: The Awakened Dior Kail Bloom (Bai Xiaowen) has signed a permanent fief contract with the Gorse Empire. As the White Stone Hill's lord, you can enter the territory of the Cain Plane with this contract. Hint: You can get one day's stay in the Cain Plane every natural month. If it is not used in the month, the stay time will automatically accumulate.]
"Not bad. This way, you can go in and find her." Li Shuyi curled his lips.
Bai Xiaowen coughed and said a little guiltily, "Shuyi, it's time to go back."
Fortunately, Li Shuyi was just teasing and did not have the intention to pursue the matter. "It's time to go back. We've been in the Spiritual Realm for a whole month this time. Dad must be worried."
Bai Xiaowen said, "Maybe we've all been treated as missing persons … I made an agreement with Mr. Zhang and Mr. Sun of the pharmacy to go back in half a month and make another batch of high-purity potions for them … It's been a month."
Bai Xiaowen had thought of this problem before. However, no matter what, he could not give up the newly unearthed second main mission, [War of the Black Stone Hill], and give up the extra 15 days of stay. If he gave up, not only would he lose an S-rank main mission, but it also meant that he would lose the early stage of the S-rank hero side mission, [Fight the Plague]. The Oath of the Black Stone Hill team building item and the Permanent Fief Order were the rewards that countless Awakened dreamt of …
Even if Zhang Jingcheng and Sun Hecheng knew about this situation, they would still support Bai Xiaowen's decision to stay in the Cain Plane.
With a flash of light, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi's figures disappeared. They had chosen to return.
…
Jinghai University, school team training base.
Xiang Hui and Chen Guowei sat in the lounge. The atmosphere was a little gloomy.
"It's been 30 days. Why isn't Old Bai back yet?" Chen Guowei said gloomily. "Old Xiang, what do you think?"
Xiang Hui said lightly, "The tickets they used this time only allow them to stay for 15 days at most."
"I know! I'm just asking you what you think! Do you think Old Bai and Beauty Li will … "
Xiang Hui was silent for a while and nodded. "Although I think that with their strength and intelligence, it's unlikely that anything will happen to them. But based on the current situation … the possibility of something happening is very high. "
"Sigh … Without Old Bai, I don't have the energy to train." Chen Guowei crossed his hands behind his head and looked a little listless.
"Don't be so childish," Xiang Hui said coldly. "Let's not talk about whether something will happen to them first. Even if something does happen to them, won't you be able to live your life? Pull yourself together and train well. Since you've embarked on the path of the Awakened, you have no fate with a peaceful life. Maybe you and I will have such a day too. "
Chen Guowei cried, "Old Xiang, how can you be so cold-blooded?!"
"Our Glory Guild has a list of the family members of the martyrs," Xiang Hui said lightly. "All the Awakened who died in the guild's unified operations, their immediate family members will automatically be added to this list and enjoy the guild's key protection and resources. I was on this list when I was four years old. "
Chen Guowei scratched his head. "Old Xiang, I'm sorry. I'm just being rude."
Xiang Hui shook his head and said nothing.
"By the way, does Old Bai's guild have such a list?" Chen Guowei asked.
"Shouldn't be. For this kind of system, every addition of a family member is equivalent to the cost of signing a contract with a Awakened. Moreover, there is no return to the guild. Generally, only the big guilds can do this, "Xiang Hui said.
"I remember that Old Bai has a sister … If Old Bai doesn't come back, I want to go to his house and see if there's anything I can do to help," Chen Guowei whispered.
