Bai Xiaowen clicked on the first Gold Card.
"You've received an item: Broken Slave Contract."
[Broken Slave Contract: A + Level Item. Sign a contract with a humanoid creature with a normal template and make it your slave. If the other party does not agree to sign the contract, there is a chance of failure. The higher the level of the other party, the higher the chance of failure.]
There was a small line of text after the main text.
Special Note: This Slave Contract has been broken, so its effect is relatively weak. You can collect more Broken Slave Contracts and combine them to create a more powerful item.
"This is … an item that permanently increases the number of summoned slaves," Bai Xiaowen said after reading the note.
"This item seems to be very suitable for you," Li Shuyi said.
"First of all … it restricts the slave to be a humanoid. More importantly, it can only sign a contract with a creature with a normal template!" Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said, "This way, its value is relatively low, and there is a chance of failure."
"But it's good to have a servant with a normal template. It should enjoy the bonuses of your summoned creatures," Li Shuyi said. "Besides, this kind of item is a dream. If you get a few more Broken Slave Contracts and combine them, you might be able to use it on an elite or even a leader."
"Actually, this item is the most cost-effective for an Awakened …" Bai Xiaowen rubbed his chin and said, "Having an Awakened slave is comparable to having several spiritual creatures … If it can be used on an elite Awakened … Tsk, my psychic trainer bonus and mental strength bonus …"
Li Shuyi looked forward to it. With her current attributes, if she could get a 20% increase in all attributes and a + 6 in all attributes … she might be able to take on a high-level leader.
"What do you think? Isn't it very attractive?" Bai Xiaowen said with a smile. He could tell at a glance what Li Shuyi was thinking.
Li Shuyi quickly reacted and glared at Bai Xiaowen.
Bai Xiaowen quickly waved his hand and smiled apologetically. "Relax, relax … I'm just saying. If an Awakened becomes a slave, it's hard to say if they can maintain their self-awareness … If they don't have self-awareness, they can't resonate with the psionic equipment and can't wear it. In this way, they are no different from other summoned creatures …"
"If we want to find other Broken Slave Contracts, we can only find them in planes where slavery is prevalent, such as the Hittites, our current enemy." Li Shuyi rolled his eyes at Bai Xiaowen. "Do you want to include this target in the plan?"
Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said, "No … Our next focus is to collect the Poison Fang Priest set. Our main range of activity should be in Egypt. In order to collect the slave contract, we must kill the high-ranking Hittite leader. Our range of activity is limited to Syria."
. "Bai Xiaowen had a lot of summoned creatures, not to mention that he had the Black Soul Stone. If he wanted more summoned creatures, he just needed to spend some Soul Essence to unlock the new options of the fifth level. There was no need to spend too much energy on a Slave Contract with an unknown future.
Li Shuyi put away the Slave Contract and continued to draw. This time, he got a cloak.
[Commander's Cloak (Bound after pickup)]
[Quality: Hero (Gold)]
[Equipment Position: Back]
[Equipment Requirements: Basic Strength 20, Basic Agility 20, Basic Constitution 20, Basic Spirit 20]
[Attributes: All Attributes + 1, Back Armor + 3, Evasion Rate + 3%]
[Additional Skills: Command Roar: All damage dealt by allies within a large range (Spirit * 10, unit: meters) + 15% and all damage received reduced by 15%. Lasts for 15 seconds. Cooldown time: 24 hours]
[Durability Description: A wise commander should know how to stimulate the potential of his soldiers.]
"It's a very good piece of gold equipment," Bai Xiaowen said. "For a piece of gold equipment, all attributes + 1 is barely enough. Not to mention, it also has a powerful group buff skill. The attributes and skills of this cloak, if listed separately, can support the quality of a piece of gold equipment. "
Yes, even if it did not have any additional attributes, the Command Roar skill was definitely worthy of the quality of a piece of gold equipment. When these two attributes were combined, it was equivalent to a piece of gold equipment with the value of two pieces of gold equipment. Moreover, it only occupied one equipment slot. This was far more valuable than two pieces of ordinary gold equipment.
The only flaw was that the equipment requirements were rather strict. All the basic attributes had to reach 20 points before they could be equipped. Most of the Awakened ones, including the Hero Class, could not meet this standard. Everyone had their own shortcomings.
Even with Bai Xiaowen's comprehensive attributes, his basic strength was only 19 points, which was one point short. However, the good news was that Bai Xiaowen met the other requirements. He only needed to consume a bottle of Strength Enhancement Potion to reach the standard.
This was also the reason why Bai Xiaowen had not used the third bottle of Strengthening Potion. Before the pain curve increased by multiple times, there was a limit to the number of Strengthening Potions an Awakened could endure. It was better to save them for now. When he really needed a certain attribute increase, he would choose to use it specifically.
For example, right now, he lacked one point of basic strength. He could only look at this superb piece of gold equipment and drool …
Bai Xiaowen had two bottles of strength-type, agility-type, and physique-type Strength Enhancement Potions in his storage space. They were all Tier 1, Level 10 perfect-grade potions that could increase attributes by up to five points. As the saying went, it was better to be prepared. Anyway, even if he did not need them, he could sell them to the Super Godly Potion Shop before they expired …
After putting away this piece of gold equipment, Bai Xiaowen clicked on the third card.
"You have obtained two special-grade psionic crystals."
Special-Grade psionic crystals were the same type of item as high-grade psionic crystals. They were placed in Strength Enhancement Cards during the equipment strengthening stage to replace other auxiliary equipment and burn them.
However, special-grade psionic crystals were equivalent to burning a piece of gold equipment of the same type as the main equipment! The increase in success rate was definitely considerable.
"This thing is used when strengthening dark gold equipment to + 7, and it will definitely be very valuable. It will be worth at least two pieces of gold equipment," Bai Xiaowen said emotionally as he put away the two special-grade psionic crystals. "Commander Horimu … is really a generous slave master!"
He had drawn decent items in all three draws. The most valuable one was the Commander's Cloak.
"Xiaowen, there's something else in the treasure chest," Li Shuyi immediately said with his sharp eyes.
Bai Xiaowen waved his hand and said, "It should be Horimu's head, the kind that will definitely drop … After all, Ramses said that he would use Horimu's head as a wine vessel. We killed Horimu, so the rules of the Spiritual Realm will, of course, give his head as a trophy. "
After a pause, Bai Xiaowen said again, "If there was anything wrong with our killing process, this head might have taken up one chance at the lottery. However, we completed the kill under the most difficult circumstances, so the head was given as a bonus. "
After a fierce battle, the Egyptian army, which had suffered heavy losses, finally protected Pharaoh Ramses and returned to the southern fortress, Amur. Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi received the message that the mission had been completed at the same time, and they could submit it to Ramses.
The soldiers and civilians of Amur Fortress opened the fortress gate and lined up outside to welcome their Pharaoh.
Ramses' golden chariot had been changed on the way. Even the blood and dust on the chariot had been wiped clean. This young Pharaoh wore a lapis lazuli crown and stood on the chariot, accepting the cheers of his subjects with the posture of a victor.
At the gate of Amur Fortress, Ramses gave an impromptu speech.
The purpose of the speech was to boost morale, and the theme was, of course, to boast about their military achievements.
"… In short, we have achieved a glorious victory in this battle. The corpses of the Hittites are piled up like mountains, enough to stop the flow of the Oronte River! We also killed the commander of the Hittites, Muwatalis, who fled back to the Stone City in a sorry state!
"The final victory of the war will belong to Egypt!"
Under the influence of Ramses, even the Egyptian soldiers, who had fought for a day, had some kind of illusion, as if they had really fought a great battle and returned.
Bai Xiaowen complained about the Pharaoh's shamelessness while clapping and shouting with the crowd, "Long live the Pharaoh!"
When Ramses nodded reservedly and accepted the praise of his subjects, Bai Xiaowen naturally did not let go of this opportunity.
"Great Pharaoh, your loyal warrior Dior, I present to you the head of the Hittites' commander!"
Bai Xiaowen knelt on one knee in front of the golden chariot and offered the head of Horimu, who had died with his eyes open and stained with blood and dust.
Ramses laughed and grabbed the braid on Horimu's head. He lifted it up and showed it to the surrounding crowd as proof of Egypt's great victory.
The cheers around them became even louder.
"Rise, my warrior!" Ramses found Bai Xiaowen pleasing to the eye. "I told you, bring me the head of the Hittites. I want to use it to make wine! You brought it for me. You are the warrior favored by Amon, the sharpest blade in my hand! Now, board my chariot and bathe in glory with me! "
Ramses bent down and helped Bai Xiaowen up. With a strong lift, he pulled Bai Xiaowen onto the golden chariot.
Riding in the same chariot as the Pharaoh and returning to Amon Fortress in glory. If this were an ordinary Egyptian, they would probably faint from excitement and become loyal to the Pharaoh from then on.
However, Bai Xiaowen was not a local after all, so his feelings were not as strong. He only sighed inwardly. Ramses's charisma was extraordinary.
Amidst the cheers, the golden chariot drove into the magnificent Pharaoh's palace. Bai Xiaowen officially received a notification.
"Rank-C Hero Side Mission: The Return of the Pharaoh, completed. Mission Completion: Excellent (86%). "
"You have received 3000 merit points."
"Your reputation in the ancient Egyptian camp has greatly increased. Current reputation level: Reverence."
"Pharaoh Ramses II's favorability towards you has increased. Current favorability level: Friend."
"Main Mission: Choice, completed. In the next 8 days, 9 hours, and 17 minutes, you can leave the Plane of Ramses at any time. The gains from this exploration of the spirit world (including but not limited to Psionic Points, equipment, and items) will not disappear. "
Bai Xiaowen heaved a sigh of relief and exchanged a look with Li Shuyi. Although the Zalen trio had messed things up, the completion of the main mission had still been very smooth in the end.
He had to make good use of the next 8 days of free exploration time.
At this time, Ramses had already deployed the defense of Amon Fortress and officially summoned Bai Xiaowen.
"Dior, now tell me what you and your sect know," Ramses said in a deep voice. "I'm not in the country right now, so I can't verify whether what you said about Sepilas and his believers is true. However, since you saved me and my army, I can only choose to believe you."
The opportunity to bluff had come.
Bai Xiaowen's body was glowing. While waiting for the summons, he recited the poem on the leaf peony painting.
In Egypt, where there was a language barrier and cuneiform was still used, his charm only increased by 15%, but it was enough. After all, his foundation was high. Bai Xiaowen thought.
"Great Pharaoh, I've already told you before that everything is the work of the Silent Tongue Cult," Bai Xiaowen said solemnly. "Don't you think that the Hittites are too well-prepared for this expedition? Because before you expanded the Ptah Legion and marched into Suriston, the spies hidden in Egypt had already spread your plans to the Hittites! "
"You mean … the Silent Tongue Cult is a spy organization of the Hittites?" Ramses asked with a frown.
"No," Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said sinisterly. "They are all Egyptians, but … they are Egyptians who are loyal to the Hittites."
"How is that possible?" Ramses shook his head.
"Speaking of which, this is also related to the struggle between the sects …"
Bai Xiaowen had already planned this. He was going to pour dirty water on the Hittites.
"The Silent Tongue Cult believes in the Delta Serpent God, which is the patron saint of Lower Egypt, Edjo. As you know, when Emperor Menes the Great unified Egypt, the patron saint of Lower Egypt gradually lost his status and was replaced by the great divine bull, Sepilas.
"Over the years, Edjo's cult has been constantly seeking to restore the status of the serpent god, and our struggle with them has been ongoing.
"This time, they are betting on this war. They are using their connections in Egypt to hide the identity of the Hittites' spies. There is only one purpose … to let you die in Suriston! If it weren't for this group of rats helping the enemy steal information, how could your battle plan have been thwarted? "
This was the information Bai Xiaowen had prepared in advance. If it had been any other Awakened, it would have been difficult for them to come up with this set of lies. The names of gods, places, and sects were all a set …
Ramses pondered and said, "Even if I die, can they achieve their goal? Changing the beliefs of the people of Lower Egypt is not a simple matter. "
