Chapter 772: Activating a dark-gold equipment
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
Of course, one couldn't exclude the possibility of Demondream immediately squandering her achievement points to upgrade an ability after killing someone. That was nonetheless a minute probability. Moreover, apart from the crucial achievement points, upgrading abilities would concurrently require utility points and potential points. Thus, judging from the Illume-union's state of affairs, Demondream may not hit that requirement.
Thus, Sheyan didn't hesitate spending to redraw after drawing the option of 'utility points' the first time.
His wish came true the second time. Even so, the amount of achievement points obtained didn't meet their expectations, but wasn't too measly as well. To Sheyan, 6 achievement points could be considered pleasant.
Noteworthily, Sheyan had long received the two equipments from eliminating Plague and Patrice. However, due to the tremendous pressure at that time, he merely swept a glance through without pondering much. Right now, he finally had the time to inspect them carefully.
Plague dropped a headdress equipment. It was a hat crafted with an unknown leather material with white spots. A thin layer of fur coated the hat which felt extremely smooth to touch. Black spotted feathers adhered to the tip of the hat which appeared succinctly pristine. Wearing it would impress a medieval bearing.
When Sheyan browsed through its attributes, he felt his hair stand.
[ Voldemort's Allure ]
[ Origin/crafter: Voldemort and a contestant ]
[ Equipment rarity: Silver Storyline grade ]
[ Material: Calcium carbonate / calcium phosphate / Chitin/ Sulfuric Keratin ]
[ Addons: Nil ]
[ Weight: 0.74 kg ]
[ Usage requirements: Charm 20 points, perceptive sense 12 points ]
[ Durability: 11/20 ]
[ Property: Success rate of taming creatures increase by 4% x3 ]
[ Property: Charm and perceptive sense +4 ]
[ Property: All attributes +2 ]
[ Property: While taming a creature, there is a chance of the grievous animal spirits in the hat to affect results ]
[ Detail: When the grievous spirit of Hedwig appears, your taming process will fail instantly. You will suffer the shackles of an arcane magic. During this period, all abilities will require additional 100% mana ]
[ Detail: When the grievous spirit of Dudley Dursley appears, your tamed animal will turn berserk and turn against you ]
[ Details: When both spirits appear simultaneously, this equipment will lose all effects and only regain them upon returning to the nightmare realm. You will be bitten into near-death state by the grievous spirits, but the chances of taming the creature increases by 20% ]
[ Warning: The owner of this hat, even if it is placed inside one's personal storage, will create an 'eternal hatred' relationship with Harry Potter and be pursued relentlessly by him ]
[ Description: Weakening day by day, Voldemort senses an immense threat from Harry Potter. Sparing no efforts to weaken Harry's prowess, he created numerous powerful magic blueprints to build invincible equipments worthy of being drooled over. For this blueprint, the two most crucial materials are Hedwig's feathers and the skin of Dudley Dursley...….Voldemort's dark magic has never vanished from this ]
[ Evaluation: Oh, someone actually dares to craft a dark equipment. Friend, do not solely place personal profits before all else, otherwise, life is fleeting….. ]
Sheyan inhaled a chilling breath upon examining this equipment.
He possessed some understanding towards Summoners' equipments. It was no wonder Plague could control four massively powerful Lickers. Though the grade of his hat was only silver storyline, it was hard to decipher its true value; perhaps, it may even surpass that of the '+7 Chieftain's Hobby'!
To a summoner, the success rate of creature taming was akin to the explosive strike rate of a main damage dealer. What implications would it mean to a damage per second dealer if an equipment had 16% chance of explosive strike rate?
What more, that inconceivable property of bolstering charm and perceptive sense by 4 points, and then adding another 2 points to all attributes?
Of course, this equipment presented a terrifying difficulty as well. Just think about it, in the Harry Potter world, offending him would be akin to offending Hogwarts. It would be incredibly arduous to proceed. The main mission would definitely be upgraded by an entire difficulty rating.
Most importantly, a secret concern may be hidden beneath its powerful attributes. Voldemort may even coerce the possessor into doing his bidding. Thus, no matter how formidable it seemed, it contained tremendous underlying implications.
As for Patrice, she dropped an equipment that was compatible with Sheyan.
It was a black grade bracer that provided +4 physique and increased blocking chance by 2%. However, it caused both explosive strike rate and accuracy to decline by 2%.
After wearing the bracers, to suppress his attributes from the boundary breakthrough, Sheyan expended another 4,000 utility points.
This was also the reason why Sheyan saved up on free attribute points. If he added the 20 free attribute points before suppressing them with his military authority, he would have to fork up 20,000 utility points instead.
At present, his pure physique attribute was 32 points. Theoretically speaking, he had attained his goal of 50 pure boundary breakthrough. However, after inquiring, he realized that raising 49 points of pure physique to 50 points was an exceptionally critical point. Thus, it required 5 free attribute points instead.
As such, Sheyan would need 3 free attribute points in the next world.
Sheyan could distinctly feel his personal prowess waning as he progressed, it was like playing mahjong where his tiles became worse. Fortunately, he calculated that the next world would be his turn to break out of the the cocoon. Although the situation was becoming tougher, Sheyan held utmost confidence in succeeding in the next world.
Nevertheless, he actually made a slight mistake in his judgement. Sheyan had forgotten about one fact when discerning himself with regards to the recent two worlds – regardless of the Resident Evil Origins World or the Jurassic Park world, they both weren't normal worlds he should be in!
Both worlds were actually of greater difficulty in comparison to him. As for a world that he should normally be placed in, it should be lowered by a level!
At this moment, Reef rushed over in excitement and requested for emergency funds.
As it turns out, the servant he acquired in the Resident Evil world was on the verge of full recovery, and needed a generous sum of utility and potential points.
Excited for Reef, Sheyan naturally aided wholeheartedly. Without a doubt, since this servant required so much potential and utility points, he would be outrageously valiant after recovery.
*****************************
After concluding a sequence of summary events, Zi returned to the nightmare realm. She was presently a member of Party Ace, and thus, Sheyan and the others received a notification of her return.
The four of them met once again. Hearing that Reef urgently needed potential and utility points, she generously loosened her purse and assisted.
She was currently experiencing exceedingly complicated emotions. There was seemingly a plethora of matters to settle, and after ensuring everything was fine, she hastily proceeded to leave the realm.
Many doubts and questions filled Zi's mind. Don't talk about others, just the fact that her status was converted from a large party leader to a small party member, was an astronomical change. As for future matters, she decided to think about it later on...
Besides, she was compelled to join Party Ace due to circumstances, and Sheyan wasn't sure if Zi would stay on.
However, just before she departed, Zi abruptly asked Sheyan.
"You possess a dark-gold grade equipment right?"
Sheyan nodded and Zi continued.
"Care to let me me see it?"
Sheyan naturally complied. When Zi examined his dark-gold necklace, 'Smith Matrix Microchip', her attention gathered onto its latest passive ability, 'Refreshed Database'. Behind this ability, was the notification of '??? unactivated'.
Zi pondered a little before fishing out a magnifying glass. She then instructed Sheyan.
"Use this magnifying glass to view your dark-gold necklace."
Sheyan received it and followed accordingly. He discovered that the passive ability, 'Refreshed Database', was actually shaded in green.
Zi then explained.
"If you see the 'unactivated' words in red, it indicates that you do not possess sufficient capabilities to unseal it. If you see it in green, that indicates you've fulfilled the requirements to activate it."
Brother curiously asked.
"Woah that's pretty cool. Where did you get such a useful item?"
Zi answered indifferently.
"I acquired the blueprint for it in the Iron Man world. It is called H.A.I (High-energy Analysis Instrument), a pretty remarkable 'A+' rank item. Loads of information ca be obtained with this, but what you see now is just an imitation that only possess some basic features."
Zi glanced at Sheyan and said.
"If you see the 'unactivated' words in green, then press the side button."
