Crossover Anime: Starting from Soul Society and Slicing Through All Worlds

Chapter 71 The Gatekeeper Boss Who Was Instantly Killed

Upon entering the first secret room, an eagle with a wingspan of over three meters suddenly burst forth with lightning and flapped its wings, producing a thunderous sound, as it took flight from above the treasure chest.

The Thunder Eagle, bathed in lightning and emitting a cry of eagle, certainly sets a high bar from the very beginning.

The three rookie Alicias looked at the giant thunder eagle taking flight with expressions of serious anticipation.

"Binding Technique Sixty-Three: Chain Binding!"

However, this majestic Thunder Eagle, before its opening special effects animation had even finished and before it could even show off its power, was suddenly bound up like a pretzel by a golden chain.

At the same time that Night City made his move, Yosuke Shima also made a move, quickly condensing an ice spear in his hand before throwing it out.

Bound by the "chains," the Thunderhawk had no chance to escape. Its speed, which was originally its greatest advantage, was now useless.

Without a doubt, this big bird, which looked so cool when it first appeared, was pierced through the heart by Yosuke Shima's icy spear less than a minute after it appeared.

Alicia and her two companions, who were originally on high alert and even prepared to fight a bloody battle, were stunned on the spot when they saw what was happening in front of them.

By the time they realized what was happening, Ye Cheng and Dao Youjie had already expertly reached for the treasure chest.

As for the dead Thunder Eagle, the two of them didn't even bother to glance at it. With their current level of strength, they no longer cared about a monster of Thunder Eagle's caliber.

"I knew the monsters guarding the checkpoint were so weak, and the so-called treasure probably wasn't anything special. As expected, it's all just junk."

When they heard Ye Cheng's complaints, Alicia and the other two who had just come over also looked speechless.

Are the monsters guarding the rooms good? They haven't seen the monsters in the other two secret rooms yet, so they won't comment on that.

But that Thunder Eagle, which appeared at its peak, was clearly no ordinary monster, judging from the aura it exuded.

If the three of them were to deal with it alone, they might all be wiped out. Yet, this powerful monster has become nothing more than trash in Night City.

"Huh, I didn't expect that besides a pile of garbage, there would actually be something I could use here."

After searching through the treasure chest, Ye Cheng, who thought he would find nothing, was surprised to discover that there were actually some things he could use in the chest.

'Magic Scroll - Aura Perception'

Most people in this world possess magical powers and can use magic, but not everyone knows magic.

Just like academic disciplines, magic also has its own lineage. Apart from some general-purpose magic, some powerful and rare magic can only be learned through a few different methods.

One option is to spend your own money to buy some rare magic books.

Secondly, you have a family with a rich history and profound cultural heritage, or you have a powerful teacher.

Thirdly, like Night City and the others, they obtain magic scrolls that can be learned through mazes or secret realms.

Whether you choose a warrior or a magic build, it requires a long period of accumulation and training. There is no such thing as getting something for nothing or achieving success overnight in this world...

No, it seems that Yosuke Shima never systematically studied magic, but his situation is somewhat special. To be precise, Yosuke Shima's magic is used by spirits, and he merely borrows the power of the spirits.

If he cannot communicate with the spirits, or if there are no micro-spirits in his environment, then even if he possesses magical power, Yosuke Shima will be unable to use magic.

This magic called "Scent Perception" was indeed useful to Night City. After mastering this ability, Night City essentially had a portable radar.

It can not only sense the surrounding life forms, but also the intensity of their aura, in order to judge their strength.

"I'll take this. I don't want anything else. You can distribute it yourselves, okay?"

Yosuke Shima had no objection to what Ye Cheng said after taking the magic scroll, because his magic was mainly used by micro-sprites, and the kind of magic that Yosuke Shima needed to learn was useless to him.

As for Alicia and her two companions, it goes without saying that they were almost evenly matched throughout the entire event, and they hadn't expected to get any spoils anyway.

Now that the big shots are sharing so generously, how dare they still be picky?

Of the remaining items in the treasure chest, Yosuke Shima only took some money; he didn't take any of the remaining equipment.

There was no other reason than that, in his view, these things were also junk, and whether it was a longsword or a shield, they were obviously equipment that he could not use.

In the end, these equipment ended up benefiting Lyca and Edgar. Seeing the disgust on Yosuke and Shima's faces, the two thought the equipment in the treasure chest was very low-end.

However, when they put on the equipment and checked its attributes, they were shocked to find that the level and attributes of this equipment were at least several times higher than their original equipment!

It turns out it wasn't that the equipment wasn't good enough, but that the experts had too high standards!

If these excellent pieces of equipment were sold outside, any one of them could easily fetch more than ten gold coins.

You know, the reward for that goblin extermination mission they took on before was only ten silver coins...

"Mr. Ito, we've done almost nothing and contributed very little. Is it really appropriate for us to take so many valuable items?"

Seeing Lyca and Edgar showing off their new gear with satisfied expressions, Alicia asked somewhat shyly.

"Well, we can't let you guys come all this way for nothing, and besides, we wouldn't have been able to get here if you hadn't discovered this maze."

The rule of the adventurer's party is that no matter what loot is obtained, it should be distributed to those in the party who need it first.

If no one needs it, then sell it for money, and finally everyone splits the proceeds equally.

Since everyone has already formed a team, let's not worry about who contributed more or less; distributing the effort equally will prevent too many disputes.

Since Ye Cheng had said that, Alicia and the other two could only bow in gratitude. In fact, the three of them weren't stupid; they clearly knew that Ye Cheng was deliberately taking care of them.

The so-called "equal distribution" is used in teams with balanced combat strength. In teams like theirs with huge differences in combat strength, characters like the three of them are usually only used as laborers.

When dividing the spoils of war, people usually only get leftovers that others don't want, unlike what's happening now.
