Chapter 430: Chapter 430: Evolution Pearl
Li Yao distributed the gear to TongTong and said, “This is your mask. It’s beneficial underwater, but it might weaken your combat power since you’re an elemental shaman using totems. Still, it’s a level 20 mask, quite decent. You can make do with it for now.”
“Big brother, stop kidding me. This mask has powerful attributes and you just simply dismissed it. You’re too picky. I’m still using a level 10 helmet! Compared to this one, it’s completely outclassed. What do you mean ‘make do with it’? It even comes with swimming ability! It’s fantastic!” TongTong joyfully held the mask and exclaimed.
“What, over the moon for a piece of gear with good attributes, are you? I bet you’re not mocking it as a ‘lousy frog’ now,” Sister Li teased.
TongTong put the mask in her backpack and said, “Well, that Patrol Officer was annoying, but this mask is so cute. Besides, I’m a goblin now. There’s really no difference between me and a frog anyway. Sister Li, it was your idea to have me create a goblin disguise. It would have been better to be a High Elf.”
When it came to her character, TongTong still felt a little unhappy.
“Goblins aren’t that ugly, okay?” Sister Li comforted her.
“Hmph.” TongTong didn’t pay any attention to Sister Li anymore and continued to loot the bodies.
In reality, the Ancient God World had made slight adjustments to races like goblins, gnomes, and dwarves.
The background of the game involves the explosion of the Sunwell, which even affected the entire Magic Net of the Ancient God World.
The magical energy leaked by the Focusing Rainbow caused a short-term surge in magic across the world. This tidal wave is said to last a hundred years. It doesn’t compare to the Eternal Well era of the Ancient Times, but it has revived the magic elements much more than before.
The effect was that the skin of newly born NPCs and players (newbies) became softer and smoother due to this period, essentially beautifying all races.
Although the players’ goblins had green skin, considering the players’ aesthetics, they weren’t ugly, unlike the real Goblin Goblins.
It’s just that the High Elves were too beautiful, maintaining their original appearance, but once transformed into High Elves, they exuded a noble and elegant aura, naturally adding much charm.
Of course, the effects of this magical tide weren’t just limited to that. For example, due to the activity of the elements, even the most brutal Fire Elemental Lord of the Four Elemental Lords, who had been banished and sealed, was showing signs of breaking the seal. Blackrock Mountain has already turned into a land of lava.
The Ancient Gods were also stirring, especially the Ancient God worshipped by the Yaji Worms, which had erupted in a great war a few thousand years ago.
It was only due to the combined efforts of the four princes of the Dragon Clan and the full strength of the Ancient Elf race that it was sealed. But because of the magic tide, it was stirring again, according to the Druid who was monitoring the Worm Tribe.
There have already been sightings of worm nests in other parts of the land, which means that the seal is already very unstable. These crises cannot be ignored.
The reason the three camps have been making such a fuss over a centaur is essentially to quickly deal with the centaur, and then concentrate on dealing with the upcoming crises.
“Is there anything else worth picking up?” asked Li Yao.
“Nothing much… What’s this?” TongTong took out a bead.
Evolution Pearl
Quality: Purple Epic
When used, it gives a low-level piece of equipment a growth attribute of 5-25.
Notes: A pearl imbued with the power of the ocean.
Li Yao’s eyes lit up, “This is good stuff. It can make a piece of gear grow with the player’s level, just like an heirloom.”
“So that’s what it does. Well then, big brother, you keep it. It could enhance your golden gear.” TongTong handed it over to Li Yao.
Li Yao said, “Actually, it would be more suitable to enhance Sister Li’s Magic Wand – its attributes are quite impressive.”
Sister Li shook her head and said, “No need. Compared to purple gear, golden gear needs it more. It also has higher value.”
“Then I won’t be polite.” Li Yao put the bead away. He did have quite a bit of good gear on him.
With his golden ring and golden weapon, both of which are excellent, plus the little artifact necklace, if he were to strengthen these, the results would be quite impressive.
However, even in the future, these evolution pearls would be very rare and have no specific source.
But at the moment, this low-level evolution pearl was useful. Not using it would be wasteful, so Li Yao had no intention of holding onto it.
Li Yao quickly made a decision to first strengthen his golden Blue Moon Bow and then use the evolution pearl.
The Blue Moon Bow’s attack power was already off the charts. Once strengthened, it would be even more outrageous. If he also used the evolution pearl, Li Yao could wipe out anyone he saw in a second. Even after level 20, if the plate armor professions could withstand one blow from the Blue Moon Bow, it would be impressive.
With a plan in mind, Li Yao relaxed. This time, the loot was really good.
“Big brother, there’s a little pet.” TongTong sent the pet’s attributes and said, “I learned the roles of the feeder and beast tamer, and I’ve signed up for the pet competition. This one’s for me, okay?”
Newly Hatched Poison Dart Frog
Quality: Blue Fine
Water Combat Pet
Increases Poison Resistance by 10 points
Increases Movement Speed by 15%
Level: 1
Li Yao was not at all interested in the traits provided by this pet. Even if she asked for a top-tier pet, he would give it to her. He said, “Of course, this one’s for TongTong.”
The pet battling competition was also an official event, and the scale was huge. It was a new activity following the arena matches.
However, as the main players were currently rushing to reach level 20 and the events leaned towards leisure activities, the attention they received wasn’t high.
But the developers weren’t stingy. In the in-game competitions, the top one thousand in the camp would receive a pet reward (Little Gladiator), and the top one hundred would receive a purple quality pet (Gladiator).
After that, the top hundred from the three camps would compete in the real finals. The top ten would all receive decent in-game item rewards, while the top three would receive in-game items and cash rewards from the developers. The first place would win a credit worth five hundred thousand, second place would win a credit worth three hundred thousand, and the third place would win a credit worth one hundred and fifty thousand. It attracted a large number of casual players.
Li Yao didn’t expect TongTong to sign up, saying, “I’ll get you a couple of top-tier ones to help you win the crown.”
TongTong shook her head and said, “No, that’s like cheating. I want to rely on myself.”
“Alright, keep looting. If there’s nothing else, we should move on.” Li Yao shook his head. Anyway, TongTong’s family was extremely rich, and these prizes were nothing to her. It would be better to leave the opportunity for casual players who needed it.
“General, it’s them.” Far away, a Frogman Army could already see the figures of Li Yao and the others.
“Are you sure they were sent by the Prince?” A frogman, referred to as “General,” asked.
“Absolutely, they swim incredibly fast. And they don’t need a Breathing Potion, where else would you find something like this other than the Prince’s Sealing Sea Pearl,” said the frogman thief confidently.
“Very well. Charge and capture them, and question them for the Prince’s whereabouts,” the General’s eyes flashed with a cold light.
