CHAPTER 79
Thirty minutes later.
After taking a bath and bandaging his wounds, Sheyan walked out of the bathroom. Instantly, he saw his party members gathered around the dining table.
In fact, they were not hungry and had no intention of eating.
This was because there was an item on the table. It was the Pandora's Box that he obtained after killing Loki.
At this time, there was less than twenty minutes to complete the quest. They believed that Loki and the others wouldn't be able to rush over to complete the quest, so they were idle. After Zi obtained 'Pandora's Box', she found that this thing could actually absorb her MP in a very strange way. Anyway, she was surrounded by her teammates, so she just let it absorb her MP.
After absorbing about a third of Zi's MP, the illusion of a small hourglass appeared on top of Pandora's Box, right next to the miniature black hole where the offerings were placed. There was a percentage beside the hourglass image. The current percentage was 79%.
According to Sheyan's current inquiry, after paying for confirmation, this percentage represented the intensity of the sacrifice. The greater the number of sacrifices offered, the greater the intensity of the sacrifice, and the greater the surprise and calamity of opening the box.
Sheyan thought for a while and tried to sacrifice some insignificant things, but his attempt backfired. Some of the things did not seem to fit Pandora's box at all. They were directly rejected by the miniature black hole, and the percentage of the sacrifice dropped to 78%. Sheyan's eyes were fixed on Pandora's box. Sheyan's eyes narrowed.
In the end, Sheyan clenched his teeth and decided to sacrifice the 'Gold Pearl of the Caribbean Sea', the 'Aberration Horcrux' and the 'Sorting Hat' from Hogwarts. Finally, the strength of the 'Sacrifice' was raised to 80%, but strangely, 80% seemed to be the limit of the 'Sacrifice'.
It could also be seen from this that after Steel File obtained Pandora's Box, he had to pay an astonishing price to increase the sacrifice percentage from 0% to 78%. Unexpectedly, Sheyan was the one who benefited from it.
But at this moment, he suddenly noticed the 'Pandora's Egg' he obtained in the hidden world of 'Resident Evil: Origins'. It was emitting a strange radiance. His heart stirred. 'Pandora's Box, Pandora's Egg!' Was there some kind of special connection between the two?
Therefore, Sheyan sacrificed this thing as well. As a result, an extremely intense phenomenon appeared!!
The first thing that appeared was an indescribable fragrance. This should be the fragrance that the Goddess of Love and Beauty, Aphrodite, had bestowed upon Pandora to make men go crazy.
This was followed by a variety of gorgeous colors. This should be the beautiful clothing and nimble wisdom bestowed upon Pandora by Athena, the goddess of wisdom and craftsmanship.
Then, the illusion of an exquisite hairband floated up. This hairband was the work of the Fire God Hephaestus …
At the same time, it could be seen that the intensity of the sacrifice had finally broken through the threshold of 80% and was climbing crazily!! Finally, it rose to 100%!
At this time, the illusion around Pandora's Box became clear again. Everyone began to smell a strong fragrance. Then, the illusion of white pigeons flew around. An apple tree with silver branches and leaves began to grow. Finally, it bore golden apples. The fruits were so numerous that the branches and leaves were pressed to the ground. Then, there were female goats and sheep with long, pure white hair, or white bulls with golden horns strolling leisurely ….
"It's time to open it!" Sheyan could clearly feel that the energy in the Pandora's Box had begun to climb to its peak, but if he missed this opportunity, the energy would slowly fall back down to 80%.
At this time, although the energy had accumulated to its peak, the nature of Pandora's Box itself was ever-changing. Opening the box could still lead to bad or good results. And because the energy had reached its peak, it was likely that the final result would be extreme.
There was no doubt that the best person to open the box was either Sheyan or Reef. The two of them could ensure that even if the worst happened, they wouldn't die. But at that moment, Sanzi suddenly reached out his hand and placed it on Pandora's Box. He looked at Sheyan and said seriously, "Don't worry.
"Brother Yan, I should be the one to open the box. It's a matter of luck."
Sanzi wasn't wrong at all. The chosen would definitely be much luckier. Sheyan hesitated for a moment before replying.
"But ….."
Sanzi said.
"You can ask Brother Reef to prepare the 'Divine Hand' first. I'll open it when the countdown reaches 0. Then, Brother Reef can drag me over after 0.5 seconds."
There was not much suspense. Sanzi reached out and grabbed Pandora's Box, then suddenly opened it! The moment the box was opened, all the illusions around the box were sucked into the box.
Then, the most thrilling and most ridiculous thing happened. Reef used the 'Divine Hand' to drag Sanzi more than 30 meters away. Sanzi was dragged away, but … for some reason, Sanzi did not let go of 'Pandora's Box'. He actually dragged the box along with him.
The contestants looked at each other in dismay. They all felt that this was a super failure. Fortunately, the box was finally opened. Even if something bad happened, it would have already happened, so there was no way they could escape. When they got closer to take a look, they found that Pandora's Box had become transparent. It quickly turned into spots of light and collapsed towards the middle. In the end, what appeared in front of Sheyan was a very strange scroll.
The scroll had a thick texture and texture. From the back, it did not look much different from an ordinary parchment. However, after flipping it over, the front of the scroll rippled like a mirror. However, no matter which angle one looked at it from, the image reflected on the scroll was that of the person holding the scroll!
The scroll had a very cruel name: 'The Scalp of the God of Crete'.
Sheyan held the scroll in his hand, and a series of attributes appeared.
[The Scalp of the God of Crete]
[Rarity: Legendary Item]
[Description: I have heard the desire in your hearts. You desire to become stronger. In view of the abundance of your offerings, I grant you this scroll full of blood and power. Only the scalp of the God of Crete, who lived in ancient times, can bear the divine power of Aphrodite, the Goddess of Beauty and Desire in her heyday.]
[Use: The divine power of Aphrodite will hear your thoughts and tailor an S-rank legendary ability to the holder.]
[Hint: The stronger the holder's personal attributes are, the stronger the corresponding S-rank legendary ability will be. Once the ability is obtained, this item will be destroyed. So, try to use it when you are in your best condition.]
[Warning: The majesty of the gods is not to be profaned. The gift of the gods may be taken by the victor, but it cannot be profaned or transferred like goods. Therefore, only those who are truly qualified to possess it can open the scroll. Otherwise, they will be punished by the gods.]
***
Sheyan could not help but sigh when he saw the last sentence. In the short term, he had quite a lot of chips in his hands.
If it was a protracted war, he would have the 'Pestilence Monarch'.
If it was in terms of explosive power, he would have the 'Judgement Corrosion'.
Therefore, if he wanted to increase his strength now, the first thing he needed to do was to strengthen the strength he already had, such as getting rid of a high-grade disease like SARS as soon as possible. Secondly, he needed to unseal things like Chris Redfield's' Lucky Bracelet ', not to mention the Major General's Blood Armour waiting for him after his military promotion.
Sheyan knew that he should not bite off more than he could chew.
Therefore, Sheyan originally wanted to give this scroll to Zi. Zi's Awakening Skill had yet to appear, so although her Force attacks were ever-changing, she lacked an explosive skill that could deal the final blow. Unfortunately, it seemed that there was no other way now. It seemed that he had to use the scroll himself.
Sheyan had no intention of using this scroll at the moment, because most of the bonus potions and buffs had already been used up. Only when he returned to the realm could he be in his best condition. Moreover, he could receive timely treatment after returning to the realm to prevent any accidents from happening.
***
After they discussed for a while, Major Lee's excited voice came from outside the door.
"We've finally succeeded!"
Sheyan immediately stood up and let out a long sigh. At the same time, he saw a group of medical personnel slowly pushing Dr. W into the room. Dr. W had completely collapsed on the hospital bed with his eyes closed peacefully. The aura of aging and death exuded from his body, but he still smiled at Sheyan and said, "Don't worry, Dr. W, you're still alive.
"Thank you for your help. You allowed me to complete the research with my own hands. Now, I don't need this anymore. It's time to return it to its rightful owner."
Dr. W handed the 'Endless Vodka' to Sheyan, then closed his eyes with a smile and snored softly. He was really too tired. Although it was very likely that he would sleep forever, the expression on Dr. W's face was still as happy as ever. At the same time, Sheyan and the others received a clear mission notification.
[Hidden follow-up time-limited mission: The real trump card (completed)]
[Mission objective: Protect Mr. W within 24 hours and make sure he survives.]
[Mission reward: All of your attributes + 5 permanently!] (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
