Chapter 816 - 811: More Power, More Good People
"It’s actually a space-type mystical artifact!" Rein and Leia were somewhat surprised.
This [Twisted Root] looked like a withered old tree root, with intertwining textures layered over and over, resembling the appearance of a tree root texture drawn on paper, then crumpled into a ball.
The fact that the Tree Demon Lord revealed a space-type artifact did not surprise Bai Pu much. This was because the Tree Demon Lord itself specialized in space-related techniques, indicating it had the talent ability for space-type mystical arts.
"Both of you, this artifact is useful to me," Bai Pu said.
Both understood that Bai Pu had not yet comprehended the True Intent Prototype and nodded in understanding.
The treasure chests were all opened, and nothing they needed appeared.
Suddenly, Bai Pu turned his hand, and a bloody-red key appeared in his palm. He smiled and said, "This was obtained from a Red Race who specialized in ’Dimension Corridor’ True Intent Prototype; let’s open it together."
Rob had a Bloody Value of 31 points and could exclude two items.
Bai Pu decisively excluded the options for Spiritual Points and Honor Points, leaving only the equipment Rob wore in life and the items in the Storage Space.
Then, after excluding 15 low-valued cards, Bai Pu could draw twice.
Bai Pu directly drew twice, and the first draw revealed a Dark Gold Equipment!
[Phase Boots +4 (Sealed)]
[Equipment Quality: Lord Level (Dark Gold)]
[Equipment Position: Feet]
[Requirement: Basic Agility 85 points]
[Attributes: Agility +18; Movement Speed +25%]
[Additional Skill 1: Phase Walking: Activate to gain a 10-second phase walking state (can penetrate solid obstacles), during which movement speed increases (80) points, ignoring collision volume, cooldown 45 minutes.]
[Additional Skill 2: Return Mark: Leave up to 3 lasting 10-minute space marks along the moving path. Activating again allows instantaneous return to any mark location (maximum return distance 500 meters), consuming one mark per return. Stores one space mark every 120 minutes, with a maximum of (3).](Includes +4 special effect: increase in the number of space marks set and stored by +1)
[Durability: 144/160]
[Explanation: Be careful not to get stuck in the wall—from the first owner of the shoes’ dying words.]
"This is a Dark Gold Equipment with very strong survival capabilities."
The three of them were all knowledgeable enough to understand the utility of the Dark Gold Shoes’ [Return Mark]. As long as the space marks are pre-arranged, it can escape powerful confinement methods like the [Heaven and Earth Copper Furnace]and the [Reverse Water Prison].
This equipment couldn’t be worn by Bai Pu because he already had the [Iron Shin Guards of the Immortal King], one piece of a set.
Rein and Leia didn’t need this agility-focused equipment either.
Bai Pu did think of his teammates Wu Qingyun and Wu Mingyue, both of whom were agility-type, and lacked Dark Gold Equipment, so he kept it for them.
As to how to allocate it later, it would depend on the relationship between the aunt and niece.
Thinking of Wu Qingyun and Wu Mingyue, who were currently eagerly studying the knowledge of Mystical Arts Cultivation in the Silver Heart Great World, made Bai Pu feel a bit wistful.
As a lone wolf who temporarily assembled a team, Bai Pu needed to expend a great deal of Heart Power. Having two completely trustworthy partners could save Bai Pu much Heart Power.
He only hoped that Wu Qingyun and Wu Mingyue could grow quickly. Not to mention any greatness, just reaching the Titled Strong Person level would equate to the strength of a Grand General under the Prince of the Sea.
The second item drawn from Rob’s Bloody Key was also equipment, but was of Golden Quality.
[Void Weaver’s Robe +7 (Sealed)]
[Equipment Quality: Warrior Level (Gold)]
[Equipment Position: Upper Body]
[Requirement: Basic Spirit 60 points]
[Attributes: Spirit +10, endure Magic Damage -10%]
[Additional Skill 1: Weaving Technique: Passive, generates a ’Void Mark’ upon hitting a target with magic (up to 10 marks), each mark increases the next magic’s damage by 5%. Void marks will automatically reset after leaving combat status.](Includes +7 special effect: enhancement of Void Mark’s magic damage increase from 3% to 5%)
[Additional Skill 2: Echo: Passive, when casting magic continuously on the same target, each magic applies a ’Magic Echo’ effect on the target (lasting 6 seconds), causing continuous magical damage.](Includes +4 special effect: when switching targets during casting, the original target’s Magic Echo effect does not reset)
[Durability: 45/90]
[Explanation: Rumored to be woven from void fragments collected by a Mad Mage obsessed with damage-stacking theory.]
Seeing this upper robe, Leia’s eyes lit up immediately, even more so than when she saw the Dark Gold Shoes earlier.
Rein laughed and said, "This equipment quite suits Leia. Let’s set a price, Gangxin."
"I’m not familiar with the price of equipment purchased with Silver Dragon Coins. You set the price," Bai Pu said.
Rein pondered and said, "On the market, the price of advanced golden upper body gear is roughly three to five thousand Silver Dragon Coins, and the +7 Enhancement Level is worth about five thousand Silver Dragon Coins. Considering the equipment’s adaptation premium... I’ll offer twelve thousand Silver Dragon Coins."
Twelve thousand Silver Dragon Coins, equivalent to about forty million Spiritual Points, to buy a +7 golden upper body gear.
This indeed was a premium offer, and Rein calculated generously without any intention of taking advantage of Bai Pu.
From Rein’s detailed calculation process, he was careful at every step, fearing Bai Pu might misunderstand that he was taking advantage.
This made Bai Pu sigh secretly, thinking that with stronger power, everyone seems more benevolent, and all he sees are friendly faces.
"Alright, twelve thousand it is," Bai Pu did not intend to bargain, for he was now the Master of Earth, and the Earth Office at Silver Heart was just getting started, with many of his friends and subordinates "hungry," endlessly needing Silver Dragon Coins.
Bai Pu handed the equipment to Leia, who took it cheerfully and put it on.
Rein signed a contract notarized by the Spirit Realm Will with Bai Pu, and upon returning to the real world, he would immediately transfer twelve thousand Silver Dragon Coins to Bai Pu’s personal account on the Silver Heart Continent.
This round of unboxing eased Rein’s mood, and Leia was happiest, laughing like a flower.
Soon, the Arrow Boat reached the outside of the Profound Water Palace’s island.
Bai Pu’s spiritual power was constantly being projected outward, ensuring no demons were spying from nearby. He then signaled to Leia to activate group invisibility.
The Arrow Boat, under Leia’s starlight cover, stealthily lurked outside the main island of the Profound Water Palace.
Bai Pu received intelligence from Heig:
"The Demon Army from Profound Water Palace is marching north to aid in the Yellow Springs Belt battle. They have currently arrived at Ox Demon Mountain."
Bai Pu had a detailed map of the Shadow Island Chain in his mind.
The Ox Demon Mountain island was sixty-five kilometers in a straight line from the Profound Water Palace’s main island. Calculating the route’s distance, it could well be over 100 kilometers.
"The time has come. Both of you, recover your energy and prepare for battle!"
