The First Evolution

Chapter 319: Echo Scroll

Seeing such a seemingly strange bloody key, Fang Linyan came back to his senses immediately. The bastard Dart was clearly aiming at the Sakura Dragon Bundle on him. If he wanted to make Fang Linyan drop it, he had to stack a certain amount of Bloody Value first.

After all, the higher the Bloody Value, the greater the chance of dropping the item with the highest value.

As a result, the Bloody Value that he stacked in turn benefited Fang Linyan!!!

Thinking of this, Fang Linyan couldn’t help but want to laugh out loud.

He put away the bloody key, then he went to look at the strangely shaped thing that fell. Looking carefully, it was a short curved horn with a strange spiral-shaped texture on it and a large number of eyes-like peculiar patterns. It looked mysterious and evil.

It was still slightly warm when holding in his hand as if it had its own body temperature.

This thing was nothing but the Horn of Devil that Dart stabbed into his chest.

After picking up this thing, Fang Linyan immediately got a prompt:

Special Item: Horn of Devil

Material: Unknown

Usage: Stabbing in the chest

Use: Grants you dangerous and powerful strength!

Explanation: Must drop after death

Inscription: The devil is actually not dangerous. The most dangerous thing is your desire. Once you use it, you will not be able to get rid of its temptation.

Looking at the inscription above, Fang Linyan actually knew the meaning very well. Dart used this thing as his own trump card, but it caused him to die.

If he didn’t have this thing, he would have been more cautious before making a move or he wouldn’t even accept this mission at all.

But… For Fang Linyan, this thing had another use, that was, to bring it back to the real world which he belonged to sacrifice to Athena.

Fang Linyan remembered very clearly that at that time he sacrificed a guy who claimed to be Mephisto, and he got a lot of benefits from Athena. This guy seemed to call himself Devil Chester. In terms of power, he was stronger than the trapped guy… so the benefits he would get must be even more impressive.

In joy, Fang Linyan returned to the secret laboratory to look for Goat. To be honest, although Goat didn’t help in this battle, it was absolutely impossible for Fang Linyan to kill Dart without him acting as an undercover agent and tipping off the news.

Goat had at least 30% of the credit of killing Dart, so Goat of course should have a share of the spoils dropped by Dart.

Because of this, even though Fang Linyan wanted to draw the bloody key right away, he resisted the urge. Thinking that he should find Goat and open the box with him, so that he could be worthy of the friendship of fighting side by side together.

Soon, Fang Linyan met Goat who hurried over,

Goat was also paying attention to the battle situation all the way before. He once wanted to rush out and shouted “Sir Dart, I’m here to help you” in a touching voice, then he would launch a [Large Fireball] from behind.

But it was also fortunate that he informed Fang Linyan of this idea, otherwise, he would be used as cannon fodder by Devil Chester.

Then Fang Linyan summoned the bloody treasure right away.

This bloody treasure was also the same as the key. The material was completely made of coagulated blood, similar to things like red agate. The walls of the box were faintly translucent as if they could see what was inside the treasure box.

Then Fang Linyan stretched out his hand to touch the bloody treasure. He immediately got the familiar prompt:

Contestant ZB419, the Bloody Value of the enemy you killed is 4 points, and the drop rate of the high-value items/skills will increase by 40%.

At the same time, you have 2 points of Bloody Value, the drop rate of high-value items/skills will increase by an additional 10%!

The drop rate of high-value items in this bloody treasure will be increased by an additional 50%.

You can choose one of the following options as your loot.

1. Obtain 100% potential points and common points left over from the deceased.

2. Randomly obtain 3 items (including equipment) in the storage space of the character before death

3. There is a 100% chance to obtain a scroll of a certain ability. The ability level after learning the scroll will directly inherit the ability level of the deceased without paying any price, but the learning requirements remain the same.

At this time, Fang Linyan did not hide the prompts and directly shared them… Goat also exclaimed after seeing them,

“A high Bloody Value is really different!”

To be honest, Fang Linyan was actually very envious of Dart’s close combat ability. If he encountered Dart without preparation, he knows very well in his mind that he would be played to death!

Literally play to death!

In terms of close combat skills, Dart can really pat Fang Linyan on the shoulder and call him a younger brother. The mere LV5 Basic Melee was really not enough to show off before Dart.

Because of this, Fang Linyan intended to choose the third option. It was a 100% chance to get the ability of the deceased, and there was an additional 50% drop rate bonus to the high-quality skills!

If he chose to draw this, then giving Goat thousands of common points could also compensate his loss.

But… the second option was also tempting for Fang Linyan. Dart’s attack power was also extremely high, especially the broken sword. Fang Linyan was almost sure that it was at least the same level as a silver story equipment. He really wanted it too.

And if you drew 3 items, Goat’s compensation would most likely be drawn, so he didn’t have to pay.

At this time, Goat, as an excellent salesman, immediately said,

“Ahem, Boss Wrench, I have a piece of news for you to refer to.”

Fang Linyan said with bright eyes,

“Oh, I’m all ears.”

Goat said:

“I’ve heard of one thing before, that is, in the black market or in mysterious shops similar to the black market, there is an opportunity to buy a special item called echo scroll.”

“This kind of scroll is very special. Merit points need to be consumed when using it, and the effect of using it is that you can get an extra chance to draw. Intuitively speaking, when drawing bloody treasure, you can draw twice in a row before the bloody treasure disappears.”

“However, it is said that after using the echo scroll, the drop rate of good items will be reduced, but this is just a guess, because most things sold on the black market and mysterious shops have side effects.”

Fang Linyan was stunned before saying,

“But I don’t have an echo scroll… By the way, Dart left the team to hunt me down alone, and he wanted to drop my Sakura Dragon Bundle with just 4 Bloody Value points? This is obviously not possible right!”

“If I were Dart, I wouldn’t come without having a 70% chance or above to get the Sakura Dragon Bundle. Therefore, my most rational choice should be to choose the second option, because it is possible to draw echo scroll or items with similar effects!!”

Goat nodded and smiled,

“Yes, that’s what I mean!”

Fang Linyan nodded and said,

“Understood, then do as you said! Then I will choose the second option!”

After Fang Linyan made a decision, he immediately saw the light shining inside the bloody treasure. The first thing that appeared was a scroll-like thing, which made Fang Linyan’s heart skip a beat! Could it be that our wish comes true?

However, when he took a closer look, he found that after the light had dissipated, this thing looked familiar…

Taking a closer look, this thing was exactly the silver story item that he had seen before.

Wing Chun: Wooden Dummy

But looking carefully, Fang Linyan actually found that this thing had some obvious changes in the description below.

He remembered very clearly that the original explanation was to get the unique moves among Little Idea, Sticking Hand, Bridge Seeking, Thrusting Fingers, Six & A Half Point Pole, Eight Cutting Knives Form, Chain Punch and Slant Kick.

At that time, it was precisely because of this that he felt that this item was a bit scammy, because among the Wing Chun moves listed, only the Thrusting Finger and Slant Kick were of silver story quality. The rest were of the lowest blue and black quality. The draw was completely random.

But now in the description, among the selected options for unique moves, only Chain Punch was left!

Dart somehow removed the other moves that he didn’t want.

However, at this time, there was an extra line under the item,

To use this item, it would consume 3000 common points, and the user’s Basic Melee must be above LV4, the strength must be above 13 points, and the perception must be above 10 points.

Obviously, among the 4 conditions for learning this scroll, Dart must have failed to meet one of the conditions, so he kept this thing.

According to Fang Linyan’s speculation, this thing might be Dart’s reward for hunting him down.

After temporarily putting this thing aside, Fang Linyan looked at the second item that was drawn…

This is? A crystal ball!!?

Fang Linyan was almost speechless, but after taking a closer look, he realized that this thing was actually an accessory,

Ball of Spirit Floating Ray

Explanation: This is a powerful enchanted equipment jointly produced by 3 grand sorcerers of the Aldenia Kingdom. A juvenile blue ray is sealed inside, making it a permanent horcrux of this equipment.

Type: Accessory

Material: Calcium Carbonate, Organic Matter, Arcane Dust

Quality: Silver story

Required Conditions: Spirit 12 points or more

Equipment: Energy-saving casting, when you cast a spell (the MP value consumption of this spell must be greater than 8 points), you will enter the state of energy-saving casting. The MP cost of the next spell you cast will be reduced by 50%. The cooldown of energy-saving casting is 30 seconds.

Equipment: Ray Scale, when you are hit by the enemy, the protection of the Ray Scale will be triggered. The casting time of the next spell you cast will be reduced by 3 seconds. After the Ray Scale is triggered, it will enter 60 seconds cooldown.

Special Negative Effect: Play or Trick! The horcrux of this equipment is the soul of a juvenile blue ray, which was forcibly sealed into an accessory 2 days after its birth, so its horcrux has a strong resentment and a strong thirst for knowledge about the outside world.

From time to time, it will make some strange requests to the user. These requests are not difficult to meet, but quite trivial and troublesome. If you fail to grant its wish, its special effect will be sealed until the horcrux expresses its satisfaction.

However, if you can keep pleasing it for a long time, you will also get surprises. Energy-saving casting and Ray Scale may get enhanced effects.

Inscription: It’s been a long time since I smelled the wind of Adenia. I miss the nest my mother built with slime, the fragrance of the blue water plants under it, and the smoothness of steaming bird poops flowing over the eggshells…
