Unable to hold back the violent joy that was bubbling in my heart, I flew forward quickly and grabbed the dagger and skillbook from the ground. The Golden Python King was a high levelled BOSS, wouldn’t its equipment and item drops be awesome?
The dagger that was glowing in a silver light had a magnificent, sharp blade. There was a moon sign on the handle of the dagger, and it looked extremely beautiful. When I looked at the weapon’s stats, I was utterly dumbstruck-
[Moon Blade] (Iron-tier)
Physical Attack: 40-75
Strength: +9
Additional Attribute: Increase the user’s physical skill by 1%
Required Level: 30
&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip;
Iron-tier, it turns out to be iron-tier!
This dagger was indeed a high quality item, an absolutely high quality item!
Ever since I played , I had never seen an equipment stronger than this one. Its attack was an amazing 75 points, it was almost double of the Weeping Fireblade!
Unfortunately, my profession right now was a swordsman. If I used daggers instead of swords, I wouldn’t get the bonus attributes for swords. My attack potential and speed had declined by 35%. On the contrary, it wasn’t worth it to use the dagger.
Forget it, such a high quality dagger, I should just sell it when I got back to the city. It should be able to sell for an extremely high price!
Throwing the Moon Blade into my inventory, I took the other war prize, a purple skill book. The book was s.h.i.+ning in a purple glow, seemingly as if a powerful strength was hidden inside-
[Vindicate]: Execute a fake attack on a target. The first attack wouldn’t be able to cause any damage, but the next attack would ignore 50% of the target’s defense and increase your attack by 35%. Required Level: 30, Required profession: close combat professions.
&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip;
That moment, I became petrified on the spot.
[Vindicate]?!
The first attack was a feign and the second didn’t leave any mercy, ignoring 50% defense and increasing 35% attack. This second attack could even be called the G.o.d of all attacks!
“Shua!”
A flash of lights burst out, and [Vindicate] suddenly appeared in one of my skill slots. The effects at level 1 was to ignore 50% defense and increase 35% physical attack. When the level rise, the effects should increase even more. This skill would definitely be my trump card in the future when I’m PK-ing. It would increase my odds of success when fighting against strong opponents like Domineering Heaven Blade.
I should try it on some monsters first.
I shot a glance to the surrounding area. Not far from me, there was an unlucky level 35 python that I had spotted.
Charging forward quickly, I ran like a straight arrow towards the monster. My Weeping Fireblade drew a purple light across the air, landing right on the python’s head!
[Vindicate]!
MISS！
It was a MISS as expected. The python was immediately locked in as my [Vindicate] target, and my next attack landed down like a roaring thunder. A green glow enveloped my Weeping Fireblade as I unleashed my strongest attack skill – [Death Blade]!
“Pu Chi!”
My sharp sword penetrate deeply into the monster’s body, and a shocking damage number flew out–
“1149！”
With just one quick attack, it was an instant kill!
I looked at the monster’s corpse and couldn’t help but laugh aloud. Powerful killing move, this [Vindicate] was definitely a powerful killing move! I should increase it quickly to level 3, the effect should even be more powerful than this current one!
This time, I definitely had obtained a large haul. Not only did I get an iron-tier dagger, I had also learnt an extremely domineering skillbook. Today’s profits was really amazing!
Happily, I walked over to the Golden-scaled Python King’s body and extended my hands towards its corpse, saying, “Corpse Pillage!”
“Shua!”
System Announcement: Congratulations, you have found Giant Python Scales x25!
&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip;
25 Giant Python Scales appeared on my inventory. It was a level 3 metal armour material. Its quality was all a full 100. This should definitely be an extremely good armor material. Using this material to create metal armors or leather armors would probably add a lot of additional attributes, just like how there was an additional attribute of 1% increase in physical attack in the Moon Blade dagger. Don’t belittle this small 1% increase, these kinds of attributes would decide the standards of whether an equipment is good or bad in the later stage of the game. A weapon without an additional attribute wouldn’t interest anyone’s eyes even if their physical attack was high.
The BOSS’s corpse quickly disappeared, but a brightly s.h.i.+ning crystal stone was instead left in its place. d.a.m.n, I actually forgot to get the magic stone. The stone dropped from a BOSS must definitely be of a high quality!
Three stones lie on the gra.s.s. I bent my body and picked them up, and the stones shone brightly in my hands. A magical feeling seem to seep into my hands –
Dream Magic Stone: Level 3 Magic Stone, contains powerful magic power, quality: 97
Dream Magic Stone: Level 3 Magic Stone, contains powerful magic power, quality: 100
Dream Magic Stone: Level 3 Magic Stone, contains powerful magic power, quality: 99
I was a little dumbstruck when I saw these. What high quality Magic Stones! Items dropped by kings were indeed different. These three stones all had qualities that could be sold for more than 5 gold each, that was for sure!
Feeling extremely smug for my success, I thought, I am RICH! This time, I had really reaped a huge profit. Right now, it was still the early stage of the game. The price of one gold had been inflated to around RMB100. The gold value of these three stones in my inventory could even be comparable to a white collar employee’s monthly salary!
Hauling off an inventory of good items, I continued to move forward. It could be said that after defeating the Golden-scaled Python King, my abilities had completely risen to a whole new level, especially after gaining the [Vindicate] skill. That skill was practically the ultimate killing skill for PK!
&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip;
Brus.h.i.+ng away the branches of trees in the forest, a bright light suddenly shone in front of me. I finally came out of the Dark Forest!
Not far into the distance, I saw something that started to ignite my greed. On the outskirts of the forest, a large canyon appeared. It was obviously the Frostwind Canyon, the only place that had Green Peppers in the whole domain of Floating Ice City!
Carrying my Weeping Fireblade, I quickly entered the canyon. Avoiding the monsters home to the canyon – level 37 Bloodthirsty Porcupines, I walked towards the edge of the forest in the canyon. A plant as tall as half of a person with an appearance that made me feel overjoyed appeared. What else could it be if it’s not Green Peppers?
“HAHAHA&h.e.l.lip;”
I laughed like a maniac as I quickly reached out and activated my Gathering skill in my Hunting Set Skill–
“Ding~!”
System Announcement: You have gathered Green Peppers x3, your Hunting skill has gained 4 exp!
