Legend: One corpse-picking message per day

Chapter 115: Hidden Attributes of the Level 10 Medal! The Harvest from the Silver Treasure Map!

A regular, un-graded Zuma equipment piece can be sold for 800 million gold coins!
The merchant will charge 820 million gold coins to buy it.

The Staff of Judgment, one of the three legendary weapons from the early days of the game, is more expensive, costing around 1050 million gold coins.

He Sheng checked and found that if the three professions' Zuma illustrations are activated, they can be unlocked:

Weapons, clothes, helmet, necklace, two bracelets, two rings.

Eight items!

Compared to the Woma Encyclopedia, this one has an extra piece of clothing and a helmet. The clothing is the God of War Armor and the Demon Robe, while the helmets are all Black Iron Helmets.

Moreover, He Sheng discovered something else.

Unlocking the Zuma equipment encyclopedia no longer requires running around the map and grinding monsters, but unlocking the monster encyclopedia on that map still requires running around the map.

In addition, He Sheng saw another set of equipment that could be activated in the equipment encyclopedia.

Memory sleeve!
Memory Helmet, Memory Necklace, Memory Bracelet x2, Memory Ring x2.

Six-piece set!
Forget about the Memory Ring for now; its drop rate is just as low as the Divine Ring.

Extremely precious!

Because collecting all the memory sets allows you to teleport and pull other people!
Without the memory ring, it's impossible to complete the set.

Considering that even the Northern Heroes Guild didn't keep a set for teleporting people, you can tell how hard it is to get.

So far, He Sheng himself has only obtained one defensive ring from killing the first Golden Corpse Emperor.

It's probably still the first-kill effect.

It's hard to fall off, so it's naturally very expensive!

I don't know if the top experts have activated it yet, but Yu Jie and Qing Hong definitely won't activate this memory ring for now.

However, other parts can be lit up individually.

Previously, when he killed the Golden Corpse Emperor, he obtained quite a few memory necklaces and memory helmets, which can now be used to activate them.

Why didn't he turn it on before?

There are so many advancements to be made in this world, how could he possibly remember them all? Now that he sees them, he naturally fills in the gaps.

I checked the warehouse.
He only has two memory helmets, three memory necklaces, and twelve memory bracelets.

There are many Memory Bracelets because the Hell Corpse King also drops them.

The Hell King does not drop other memory components.

After thinking for a moment, He Sheng began to activate the memory bracelet!
failure!

failure!

He switched to the memory helmet and activated it!
success!

Hey!

It definitely felt like a stepping stone.

Continue to light up the memory bracelet.

failure!

Change the memory necklace again!

failure!

failure!

success!

Exactly three lights are on!

All that's left is the Memory Bracelet, so He Sheng will go for it directly!

Finally, with only one memory bracelet remaining, both memory bracelets were lit up.

After checking, the attribute bonuses for each piece of memory equipment after it is activated are as follows:
Attack 0-1,

Magic 0-1,

Taoist skills 0-1.

Since it belongs to a special set, activating three memory equipment pieces will further increase its attributes:
Attack on Demons Path 1-3
Defense 1-3
Magic defense 1-3
Based on this calculation, this wave of Memory Set activation has increased his attack and magic power by a total of 7 points, as well as defense and magic resistance by 1-3 points.

Pretty good. He Sheng happily messaged Bai Yifei01, expressing his desire to buy some basic Zuma equipment.

He's a merchant within his own guild; he doesn't want the profits to go to outsiders.

Sometimes he also has to take care of the business here, after all, the Northern Hero Guild has invested more than a billion gold coins in him.

As a level four guild, they naturally have no shortage of basic Zuma equipment.

This item can unlock equipment illustrations and be used to synthesize equipment. There is a high demand for it, but it is not difficult to obtain, so the price is not too expensive.

Hearing that He Sheng wanted to use it to upgrade his character encyclopedia, Bai Yifei 01 offered him the best price.

Each piece of basic Zuma equipment costs 810 million gold coins!
Items like the Staff of Judgment cost 1020 million gold coins each!
He Sheng took it first and started ordering, while Bai Yifei 01 waited nearby.

This thing has a chance of lighting up, and nobody knows how much it will ultimately cost.

First, select the power ring.
success!

Hehe, awesome!
One shot into the soul!
He Sheng was excited and checked the bonus.

My eyes lit up immediately!
攻击0-2，魔法0-2，道术0-2
Compared to the Woma equipment encyclopedia, it adds 1 point of attack.

He then clicked on other options, and after a frantic series of clicks, he unlocked all three professions.

Upon inspection, He Sheng discovered something unusual.

The attributes increased by activating the Black Iron Helmet and Clothing are:

攻击0-2，魔法0-2，道术0-2
Defense 0-2, magic defense 0-2
The clothes and helmet have an additional 2 points of defense and magic resistance.

Finally, the set bonuses for all items were activated.

Attack 0-5
Magic 0-5,

Taoist skills 0-5
Defense 0-5
Magic defense 0-5
Accuracy +5, Agility +5
Compared to the Woma set's attack rating of 0-2, it has 3 more attribute points.

So, adding all three sets of He Sheng's sets together, the total amount added is:
63 points of attack magic and Taoist skills,
27 points of defense and magic defense,

15 points: accuracy and agility.

This adds a lot of attributes, but of course, it also costs a lot!

He spent a total of a little over 1.5 billion gold coins!
The main problem is that even if you succeed on the first try, the success rate of this thing is actually much lower than that of Woma equipment.

But spending over 15 billion to acquire these permanent attributes is worthwhile.

At this moment, he still had more than 44 billion gold coins in his package!

We don't need to spend this money for now.

Wait, that's not right. You can upgrade the medal to level 10. Yu Jie said that level 10 has special attribute bonuses.

But it's quite difficult to upgrade; he previously spent 100 million gold coins to upgrade to level 5.

Forget it, just buy, buy, buy! He refuses to believe that even if he throws in a few hundred million more, it still won't go up.

I inquired with Bai Yifei 01, and the result was...
“I don’t have many No. 44 medals here. If you want to upgrade to No. 10, I’m afraid it’s far from enough,” Bai Yifei 01 said with a wry smile.

"What did you get this No. 44 medal from?" He Sheng asked, pretending to be interested.

In the early days of the legendary game, medals like No. 44 could only be obtained by going to the bottom right corner of the final level, the Holy Domain, in the 10th level of the Illusionary Realm Dragon Slayer Hall.

But He Sheng really didn't know anything about this.

Bai Yifei01 replied, "Above the Pig Slaughter Cave, there's a chance that Hell-level monsters will drop it, and you can also get it in the Holy Domain if you're lucky."

The chances of encountering a hidden boss are higher.

"Oh, I see. How many do you have? Sell them all to me."

He Sheng obtained five No. 44 medals from Bai Yifei 01, and then contacted the legendary merchant, but he only had five left.

He Sheng felt it wasn't enough, so he contacted Qing Hong and Bu Mie Qian Qian again.

We got another 20 from those businessmen!
There are 30 in total, and he spent 300 million!
There's still 41 billion left!
Then, continue upgrading your medals!
failure!

failure!

failure!

success……

……

After a frantic clicking, he finally upgraded to +10 when he had only 2 medals left.

Medal No. 44 (10):
Magic 1-13,

Requires level 30 and official rank 9.

Hidden attributes:
Defense 0-11, magic defense 0-11
Special attributes:
Damage +5%.

It turns out the special attribute is +5% damage, which is pretty good.

He Sheng didn't return the remaining two medals either.

Keep it; you can upgrade it later.

I checked with the official; the next medal upgrade requires level 40.

He wasn't at a high enough level to see how to upgrade.

He Sheng was too lazy to ask anymore; he would find out in time.

Looking at the 41 billion gold coins in the package, He Sheng felt a bit of a headache.

What else can be upgraded now?

He wanted to spend it...

Hmm, the rest... He opened various things, looking at them from left to right...

I discovered I could make two more things.

1. You can also make fashion items...

But fashion fragments can't be bought even if you have money.

He didn't want to bother Yu Jie and the others again, since they had just given him so many cards and such.

But this didn't bother him.

He had already crafted two Primal Spirit Rings and two Primal Spirit Bracelets.

The remaining items are the necklace, helmet, weapon, and clothes.
Huh?
It seems there are also: shoes, belts, medals?
Yes, it's like having an additional equipment slot, which he didn't even notice at first.

Weapons and clothing each require 100 fashion fragments.

He can now produce about 50 fashion fragments per day.

At this point, there were 52 pieces in the package.

Hmm, looks like I don't need to change it. In a few more days, I'll have a complete set. Now I'll go and craft it. Soon, he crafted two new fashion items.

Open the package and check.

First, it's a necklace.
Its chain is woven from mysterious crystal threads, flowing with a dreamlike seven-colored halo, as if containing the magnificent power of the beginning of the universe.

The pendant is a rhombus-shaped gemstone that emits a deep blue light and is engraved with ancient and obscure runes, which are the marks of time and power.

Origin Necklace:

攻击1-6，魔法1-6，道术1-6，准确＋2，敏捷＋2
Durability 5-5, Weight 1.

Level 15 required.

Not bad!

He Sheng then checked the next item.

These are shoes, the boots forged from rare dragon scales and mithril threads, each scale gleaming with a cold light, as if telling the story of past dragon slaying exploits.

Mithril threads meander through the fabric, outlining mysterious patterns and faintly radiating ancient magic.

The boots are inlaid with shimmering magic crystals, whose deep light can detect the enemy's weaknesses.

Yes, he made a pair of shoes first.

He discovered that cloth shoes could increase movement speed.

Don't underestimate the effect of a small increase of a few percent; over time, it adds up and makes you run faster than others.

The Golden Corpse Emperor moves very quickly, so the Treasure Monsters behind it must be even faster.

If you're not fast enough, it's hard to fight monsters and escape.

Primal Spirit Boots:

攻击1-3，魔法1-3，道术1-3，防御1-5，魔防1-5，

……

Hidden attributes:
Movement speed +5%.

Carrying weight +5
Attention, fashion is temporarily sorted out!

Besides this, he can also make something else.

After a closer look, he discovered that there was a category for shoes and belts that could be unlocked in the equipment encyclopedia.

Light up the shoe and belt illustrations.

Cloth shoes, animal skin belts, deerskin shoes, and iron belts.

He can currently light up these four.

After asking around, He Sheng bought 10 pairs of cloth shoes and 10 animal skin belts from a trustworthy merchant in Qinghong.

This cost 200 million gold coins!

Deerhide shoes and iron belts are not readily available; you need to craft them yourself.

The reason I bought so many is that the cloth shoes and animal skin belt will unlock 100% of the item catalog.

However, the deerskin shoes and the fine iron belt are different; like the Woma equipment, they are random.

It takes ten million gold coins to craft ordinary deerskin shoes.

He Sheng spent 60 million gold coins to synthesize three pairs of ordinary deerskin shoes and three ordinary fine iron belts.

I wonder if I can light up these two...

He Sheng first lit up the cloth shoes and the animal skin belt.

The attribute bonuses are the same as those of Woma equipment:
攻击0-1，魔法0-1，道术0-1
Although the cost is high, the permanent attributes make it worthwhile.

Moreover, after activating these two, it even has a set bonus.

The attributes are the same as the Woma set, with an increase of 0-2 in both attack, magic, and defense.

But it has two more attributes:
Movement speed +1%,

Weight +3
Very well. Next, with a mix of trepidation and excitement, He Sheng began to light up the deerskin shoes and the fine iron belt.

failure!

failure!

success!

failure!

success!

Haha!

I was lucky!

There's one fine iron belt left; I'll keep it for later.

I checked the bonuses, and sure enough, the added attributes were the same as those in the Zuma encyclopedia.

However, there is also an additional special bonus:
Weight +3
At this point, He Sheng has temporarily completed all the permanent attribute upgrades he could make.

The rest is about exploring the Pig Cave and Zuma Temple to unlock monster encyclopedia entries.

There's also the option of camping out for bosses in Woma Temple and Centipede Cave. If you can successfully camp out for them, you'll have a chance to activate an elite monster.

We don't need to visit Pig Cave and Zuma Temple for now.

But after thinking it over, He Sheng felt that he still had to do the task of camping out elite monsters.

Although killing elite monsters increases experience points, if we don't take advantage of the current gap while guarding the Corpse King's Palace to camp out and search for them, when will we?
He now only goes to the Corpse King's Palace every two hours, during which time he could easily visit the Woma Temple and the Centipede Cave.

Otherwise, we can't just go there and stake out the place, that would take way too long...

Thinking about how Qinghong had spent months trying to complete the Woma Temple project and still couldn't finish it, he was speechless...

Besides, if you go to camp out, you can skip killing other monsters, but you might not even be able to kill any elite monsters.

Therefore, He Sheng felt that even if he killed fewer Hell Corpse Kings, he could still get the elite monsters in those two maps, which was definitely a win.

Lost in thought, he hurried toward the Corpse King's Palace.

Almost two hours have passed since that upgrade...

Upon re-entering the Corpse King's Palace, he no longer needed to wear his invisibility ring.

Zi La La...

A lightning-fast attack swept across, and the Hell King, who was in a straight line, was instantly brought down!
With his current magical power, he no longer needs a critical hit to instantly kill the Hell King...

Reputation +4!

Reputation +4!

……

Kill a Hell boss, +4 reputation points!
Soon, the entire cleanup was completed...

Huh? !

Seeing the forty or fifty beams of light on the ground, He Sheng glanced at them and exclaimed in surprise.

Silver Treasure Map!
This is the second time he's exploded!
I got one when I was fighting the Evil Pincer Beetle in Treasure Hell with Qinghong.

As a result, Qinghong took it.

I never expected the Hell King to drop one!
That's really impressive! How many hellish zombie kings has he killed?!
It's estimated that the number of times this player has killed the Hell Corpse King would rank among the top 100 of all players.
I'd guess more than that...

After all, once many people stop coming to the zombie cave, they encounter fewer zombies later on...

Oh, there are still many more in Fengmo Valley...

But regardless, he killed a lot of people before getting one drop.

This thing is worth 100 million gold coins!
According to Qinghong, it has a higher chance of receiving divine blessings.

When digging for treasure, you'll obtain far more treasures, and of course, the chances of digging up a treasure-hunting monster are also higher.

In short, everything is better than a regular treasure map.

Often, there's a price but no supply in the market, but on the black market, you might encounter a big shot who can sell it for hundreds of millions of gold coins.

But reality is cruel; often, those who buy treasure maps at high prices find that they are not much different from ordinary treasure maps after using them.

Chance, chance, it all depends on luck!
Those with bad character, like the principal and the children's guardian, well, even after spending 5 billion gold coins, they didn't get a single penny...

He picked up everything first and was surprised to find that the parcel rack was almost full.

He can currently open up to a maximum of 300 grids, but he hasn't opened many before.

Now that he has plenty of gold coins, he no longer tries to save them.

They opened 300 in one go, bringing the total to 340 package slots.

Then, he nervously opened the silver treasure map.

The moment it was fully opened, suddenly, an even more dazzling seven-colored light flew out from the scroll and instantly entered He Sheng's mind!

A beautiful voice rang out at just the right time:

"Ding-dong! Congratulations on receiving a divine blessing: "
Drop rate +10%.

what! ?

This is good!

Increased drop rate is good!
The chances of getting better items when fighting bosses increase significantly.

Overjoyed, He Sheng checked the treasure hunting location and, sure enough, it was still in the Corpse King's Palace.

Hopefully we'll dig up a treasure monster someday, hehe...

Lost in thought, he returned to the city!
I went to repair the equipment first.

I haven't repaired my equipment in a long time. There are a few I still use, such as the Mythical Taoist Helmet and the Perfect Magic Wand.

As a result, during the special repair, Mr. He began to question the meaning of life.

The repair cost for just one mythical Taoist helmet is over six million gold coins.

I also repaired the legendary God of War armor and the perfect magic wand. Damn it, it cost me almost ten million gold coins...

Even an average person with the equipment couldn't afford to wear this...

After a moment of frustration, He Sheng finally settled into a wait-and-see approach; he hadn't even gotten to today's task yet...

Upon opening it, I found myself in the main hall of the Woma Temple in the 23rd level of hell...

What a coincidence, Yu Jie and Bu Mie Qian Qian were leveling up there today...

I messaged Yujie privately, and it turns out they're still there...

"I've missed you all so much since I haven't seen you all for a day, hehe..."

Yu Jie said speechlessly, "Tch! You just want to freeload on the boss quest, right? Come on, the Hell Woma Lord is about to be defeated."
