CHAPTER 202: CHAPTER 183: UNBOXING THE ’BLIND BOX

What does the wealth accumulated by a clan over tens of thousands of years mean?

Perhaps when you hear this, you will imagine a room filled with a mountain of dazzling gold and silver treasures, equipped with divine artifacts.

But when Kamoda opened a stone gate on an extremely concealed stone wall in the cave, Lin Yi and the others were stunned by the scene inside.

It wasn’t the shocking amount of wealth that surprised them, but quite the opposite. Inside the less than ten square meters of space, there were only dozens of items, categorized on the tables, appearing far less than imagined and somewhat pitiful.

At this moment, Kamoda said:

"As a reward, you can choose any three items from inside to take with you."

Lin Yi looked at Kamoda in surprise and said:

"You mean any three items?"

Kamoda nodded and smiled:

"Yes, any three items."

Unexpectedly, Lin Yi then looked at Shengshi Drunkard:

"What do you think?"

Shengshi Drunkard was stunned:

"What do you mean?"

Lin Yi explained helplessly:

"I came here because I’m doing this task for you, so this reward should rightfully include you."

Honestly, the Drunkard had never thought about getting a share from this before.

Nor had he ever considered whether this was fair to himself.

From the moment Kamoda proposed rewarding Lin Yi, Shengshi Drunkard’s first reaction was: This is rightfully Lin Yi’s, well-deserved, without any extra thoughts.

But what Shengshi Drunkard didn’t expect was that Lin Yi would actually think of him at this moment.

So initially, Shengshi Drunkard didn’t respond at all, until Lin Yi spoke, confirming that Lin Yi was serious.

For some reason, at this moment, compared to Lin Yi’s openness, Shengshi Drunkard suddenly felt somewhat ashamed of all he had done before.

The accumulation over tens of thousands of years by a clan, even a fool knows that any item inside might be worth a fortune.

Lin Yi couldn’t possibly be unaware of such an obvious truth.

And now Lin Yi actually said it publicly, showing that he truly planned to share with him.

But despite this, Shengshi Drunkard wasn’t ready to take that share.

Not because he looked down on Lin Yi, but because he knows exactly his own worth.

This journey to the He Clan, he practically didn’t help much.

Moved though he was, Shengshi Drunkard didn’t plan to accept this kindness and said:

"Don’t mock me; this reward is what you should get. If you don’t want me to look bad, let’s stop here, and don’t say anything more."

As soon as Shengshi Drunkard finished speaking, the Saint of Medicine became anxious:

"President, you this!"

Shengshi Drunkard glared at him:

"Shut up."

The Saint of Medicine was momentarily stunned, then sighed without saying more and bowed his head, retreating to the back.

Lin Yi looked at Shengshi Drunkard in surprise but said nothing more. Under the envious gazes of the people, he walked in.

Lin Yi casually picked up a seemingly ordinary short knife from the first table and looked at it:

Fear’s Fang

Weapon

Quality: Sacred Artifact

Physical Attack: 1900-2400

Critical Strike Chance: +30%

Accurate: +30

Agility: +120

Constitution: +100

Usage Level: 58

Additional Attribute 1: Critical Strike Damage +210%

Additional Attribute 2: When causing critical strike damage to a target, induce a 3s fear state in the target, reducing dual defense by 50%.

Additional Attribute 3: When using the weapon to damage a target, reduce the target’s movement speed by 40%, lasting 5s.

Additional Attribute 3: When causing 10% damage to a single target, immune to the target’s initial counterattack damage, cool-down time: 300s.

Additional Attribute 4: Within 120s, when causing damage equal to 50% of the target’s HP to the same target, increase damage by 30% to the same target for the next 30s; cool-down time: 600s.

"Making the enemy feel fear is the purpose of my existence."

Lin Yi looked in surprise at the dagger in his hand, at the rows of additional attributes above:

"Good golly! This is simply an assassination divine artifact."

Almost every attribute above is tailor-made for a thief, extremely terrifying.

If Red Eyes or Tianci were to wield this dagger, who in this game could escape their assassination?

Just like the weapon’s final introduction, if anyone wields this weapon, their enemies will always be in the shadow of fear.

Although the attributes are tempting, unfortunately, the usage condition of level 58 is daunting for Lin Yi.

To level up to 58, it would take at least more than a year.

Now, holding onto a ’heirloom’ that can only be admired rather than used really isn’t very meaningful.

Lin Yi put the dagger back.

All sorts of equipment were placed on this tabletop, suitable for various professions.

The lowest tier was Mythical level, and the highest was the Holy Artifact level just now.

This was not at all surprising to Lin Yi.

Above Holy Artifacts are Demigod Artifacts; throughout the three years of the previous life and this one, Lin Yi only ever saw the World Tree branch given by Babylon back then.

As for others, he occasionally heard of them but never actually saw any.

Though it’s a bit surprising that the Cyclops Race doesn’t even possess a single Demigod Artifact, upon reflection, it’s reasonable.

After all, among the Hundred Races, although the Cyclops Race is fairly competent in strength, the tribe itself isn’t very wealthy, having such a background within the Hundred Races is already considered good.

However, these are not the key point; the main issue is all this equipment can only be used above level 40, so Lin Yi abandoned them after looking through some.

Then, the next tabletop displayed four unhatched pet eggs.

The pet system has not yet been opened (Elemental Spirits belong to auxiliary spirits, another type is the battle-type pets hatched from pet eggs).

If everything goes as expected, the pet system should open when players reach level 30.

Of course, the possibility of an early opening due to butterfly effects caused by oneself can’t be excluded; after all, things beyond Lin Yi’s expectations have happened too often during this time.

Now there are four eggs here, all at Epic level.

Pet levels are divided into four grades: Ordinary, Rare, Epic, and Mythical.

Epic level can be considered the ceiling for pet eggs.

Because Mythical level pets like the Four Divine Beasts or Qilins, such pet egg levels aren’t something ordinary people can obtain.

Hence why Epic-level pets are already considered top-tier.

In the previous life’s three years after the game opened, countless people were going to great lengths for a rare-grade pet egg, including Lin Yi himself.

You’re right; pet eggs from rare grade and above are extremely precious, let alone at Epic grade.

The four pet eggs are: Golden Behemoth cub, Lightning Eagle cub, Earth Dragon cub, and Three-Eyed Demon Ape cub.

Among them, Lin Yi is more familiar with the Earth Dragon.

Because back when helping at the Proud Gaze base battle, Lin Yi summoned an Earth Dragon.

The Earth Dragon hatched from this pet egg should grow up into the Earth Dragon Lin Yi summoned back then.

Doesn’t this mean, once this pet is raised, it could become a decent mount?

If there’s nothing good afterward, Lin Yi might choose from these four pet eggs.

The next tabletop had a series of invaluable forging materials.

If the Dwarf Race’s blacksmiths saw these, they might go crazy with excitement on the spot.

However, for Lin Yi, forging equipment is the thing he dreads most; just finding materials alone is already a headache.

So despite how rare these materials are, Lin Yi still chose to skip them.

The subsequent tabletop held some ancient scrolls.

The scrolls may record some common or rare magic;

Or perhaps a Chapter of treasure map;

Or maybe a blueprint for crafting equipment, etc.

Thus, in this game, scrolls are a kind of item that must not be underestimated.

Because unless you have it in your hand to see clearly, you’ll never know what the ancient scroll records.

It’s somewhat like opening a blind box.

Lin Yi opened the first scroll to check, and it was a blueprint for crafting a level 30 Holy Artifact-grade chest armor.

The second scroll was another blueprint for crafting equipment.

The third scroll, a map indicating the location of a bandit’s treasure (maps cannot be seen clearly when unbound).

Speaking of treasure, what good things could a group of bandits possibly have?

He skipped it.

The fourth scroll recorded a Fire Element level 60 Group Attack System magic: [Sky-Filling Fire Cloud].

Lin Yi weighed the scroll in his hand; having such a scroll over Sapporo City back then, throwing it into a crowd would certainly be thrilling.

Next was the fifth scroll, which was a map of a treasure vault named Doming City Vault.

Lin Yi held this scroll and fell into thought.

An already non-existent City Lord’s Mansion vault, worth risking for?

The tricky thing about treasure maps is, until the last moment, you never know whether you’re facing surprises or shocks.

After hesitating for a moment, he decided to keep it as a pending choice.

No matter what, a City Lord’s Mansion is not the same as a bandit hideout.

Back during the Demon Race invasion, many cities were destroyed, Doming City likely among them.

If Doming City hadn’t transferred materials from the vault beforehand, he would be in luck.

Then Lin Yi picked up the sixth scroll, and upon opening it he was stunned on the spot, his eyes fixed intensely on the content of the scroll, unable to help but exclaim:

"Whoa, it’s the inheritance scroll for hidden professions!"
