When Sheyan raised his pure strength to 20 points, he received a notification:
"Your basic attribute 'Strength' has exceeded 20 points without any equipment."
"You received additional basic attribute reward, please make your choice within 10 seconds."
"A: Basic attribute reward I (passive): 'Bulky' – Apart from damage, you receive 5 points in strength judgement.
PS: For example, if you equip an equipment that requires 25 points of strength, you can equip it with 20 points of strength. If you learn a scroll that requires 25 points of strength, you can learn it with 20 points of strength. During crushing judgement, 26 points of strength can crush a contestant with 15 points of strength, but damage will be calculated according to 26 points of strength. "
"B: Basic attribute reward I (passive): 'Muscleman' – Your firm and developed muscles can effectively protect your body. Any enemy's explosive strike rate will be reduced by 10%. Even if an explosive strike occurs, the explosive strike damage will be reduced by 20%."
Sheyan paced back and forth between 'Muscleman' and 'Bulky' for a long period of time. But thinking back to the previous world, when he encountered a boundless zergling sea, the main issue was the fear of explosive strikes from the zerglings. But if he could suppress their explosive strikes, then Sheyan's time in the arachnid sea would increase by at least 50%!
On a deeper level, because of the existence of his innate ability 'Endurance', a single explosive strike was undoubtedly a thorny problem for Sheyan. No matter if it was a battle with a contestant, or a crossfire with storyline characters. Therefore, Sheyan chose 'B' – 'Muscleman'. It could be considered as a protective talisman for his future position in the party.
After a series of choices, Reef had already rushed over from his personal room. Sheyan couldn't help but ask him what he was busy with. Reef sighed and replied.
"Of course it's about smithing. Although I used up quite a bit of pandora crystals to heal Baiise's limbs, Mogensha has an unending supply of drones. He promised to share some with me after he returns, so it's barely enough."
Seeing Reef's proficiency in smithing, Sheyan then took out his white grade brass knuckles and asked for guidance. Reef was rather astonished.
"This thing should be made by an extremely high level smithing master. He can extract the 'Parry' attribute from other equipment, and add it to your white grade brass knuckles. This is something that can only be done by smithing. But the process of extracting and attaching is extremely easy to damage the equipment. "
The two chatted as they advanced, unknowingly arriving at the plaza of the nightmare realm. After the two boarded the 'Tentacle Lift', they swiftly ascended to the top of the realm. Ahead was a hexagonal metallic tunnel.
At this moment, there were actually three people entering the metal tunnel ahead. It seemed like they were using the related functions. Within a short period of time, the others wouldn't be able to approach. Seizing this opportunity, Sheyan took out his black grade material 'Troll's back leather', allowing Reef who possessed the forging ability to see if he could craft an upper garment from it.
Reef examined for a while before nodding his head in agreement. He then inquired if Sheyan had any other additional materials. After pondering for a while, Sheyan entered his interspatial imprint and rummaged through it. Previously, he had utilized his' Prometheus III Flamethrower 'to slaughter an astonishing number of zerglings. Although the drop rate wasn't high, he still managed to collect several rare drop rate carapaces.
These 'material' carapace shells were all carefully selected by Sheyan. Their grades were all of an outstanding dark-blue grade. Apart from leaving 2 pieces for Jinkuang, the rest were all taken out for Reef to choose from. Reef was rather satisfied, picking out a few intact ones, and left 3-4 pieces for Sheyan.
At this moment, the 3 contestants in front stood up, looking like they had completed their tasks. They casually chatted as they strolled over. Because the contestants' heads were covered with a hazy glow, their facial features couldn't be seen. Only their conversation could be faintly heard.
"Finally promoted to a level 3 party. It really wasn't easy, Kurt didn't die in vain!"
"Why didn't boss handle this matter? It seems like he hasn't seen anyone recently. "
"I heard it was because of a woman. Do you know that violent woman, Fu Lyanna? I heard she had a dispute with boss, but I heard she died. "
"Shit, in this damned realm, dead people are too common. Isn't it just a woman? If boss is willing, I can find him a hundred in Amsterdam. "
"I suddenly realized that talking about women and relationships with an idiot with the nickname 'mobile genitalia' like you is the worst thing in the world. Fu Lyanna may have died, but boss secretly bound a soul item to her back then."
"Soul tool? That thing used by Voldemort in the Harry Potter world? Boss is really willing to pay a heavy price. "
“YES！ Boss should be busy with the Soul Tool Resurrection quest right now, right …? "
"… … …"
Following that, the 3 contestants gradually walked away, their voices could no longer be heard. Instead, Sheyan took in a deep breath!
"Level 3 party! Boss!!! Soul tool!!! Metals professor, Fu Lyanna! "
When these seemingly insignificant words were put together, they gave Sheyan a huge impact. It was like he had swallowed a mouthful of Erguotou, then chewed on a large piece of snow-white and tender garlic. When the two were mixed together, the burning sensation wreaked havoc on his tongue, down his throat, and all the way to his stomach!
"Interesting." Sheyan's lips curled into a sneer. That feeling of his blood heating up once again surged up. This wasn't fear, but the excitement of facing a formidable challenge! An instinctive strength awoke from the depths of his soul! Then, it flooded his entire body, lingering for a long time.
"What's wrong?" Reef noticed Sheyan standing there in a daze, and couldn't help but ask.
"Nothing." Sheyan naturally wouldn't overthink with just a few words. The Metals professor wasn't Voldemort, it wasn't easy for her to resurrect. So what if she survived? He couldn't decide what others would do, but as long as he rapidly grew stronger, that would be fine! Thinking of this, the two entered the metallic tunnel together, and passed through the dark-green light speed scanning. At the end of the tunnel, they sat down on a metallic chair, and a holographic screen floated in front of them.
"Serial number 1018 … ….. reading."
"Confirming identity … ….."
"Your current nightmare imprint rank is Second Lieutenant."
"Your current achievement points are 52 points."
"Your current available services are as follows:"
"A: Purchase military rank related items." (Click for detailed purchase list)
"B: Access military rank related confidential information." (This function may incur certain fees)
"C: Apply to establish a party."
"D: Obtain military rank allowance." (Your current military rank allowance is: Free purchase of a military rank reward item, this item must be purchased with your current authority)
"E: Accept military rank mission." (Currently no relevant mission)
"F: Withdraw from current party. (This service is unavailable, you are currently in a temporary party)
"G: Others."
Because Reef and Sheyan were still in a temporary party, he could see the long list of options, and instantly displayed a helpless expression. After asking, Sheyan found out that there were only 3 options for a reserve-duty Second Lieutenant:
"A: Purchase military rank related items."
"B: Apply to establish a party."
"C: Others."
Just from this simple point, one could see the huge difference between a genuine Second Lieutenant and a reserve-duty Second Lieutenant! Sheyan wasn't in a hurry to establish a party. He had brought back an unknown mysterious object from the previous world, the 'Blade Empress' body hair '. After submitting it, he received 2 options:
A: Sell it, receive 10000 utility points.
B: Donate it to the realm, receive 2 achievement points.
Now that he understood the importance of achievement points, he naturally chose to donate it. After raising his achievement points to 54 points, he chose to establish a party, and received a series of notifications:
"You can establish a small party of the lowest level. Core party members cannot exceed 3, ordinary party members cannot exceed 10, and temporary party members cannot exceed 20. You can purchase a reputation contract from the realm to expand your party members. "
"You can appoint an assistant, but his military rank must be Sergeant and above. This appointment will consume 1 achievement point."
"Please name your party. If you omit this option, then your party will be named with a serial number. "
Sheyan looked at the naming options, for some unknown reason, he unhurriedly keyed in two words:
"Ace!"
Sheyan was instantly stunned, because after confirming, a notification shockingly popped up in front of him:
"Are you sure you want to establish this party?"
"You will immediately receive a relevant party establishment mission. Normally, party establishment missions won't be life-threatening, but your final mission evaluation will determine your party's reward and party capabilities!"
Sheyan and Reef were both stunned. It seemed like it was indeed rare for a genuine Second Lieutenant to establish a party. Therefore, even Reef hadn't heard of such a rule before. (To be continued.
