Chapter 861: Unbelievable
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
There was always a possibility of obtaining great items from treasure chests. However, the percentage was minute under normal circ.u.mstances. The treasure chests in the Tower of Remorse, on the other hand, only dropped trash.
The first time Jiaojiao opened a treasure chest, three rats came running out of it. Nothing was obtained.
“Rats, can rats be pets?”
Jiaojiao’s face was as white as sheet. She may be casual in manner but there were things she was afraid of. Rats, for example, were one of the things she feared.
“It’s possible if you wish to subdue them. Give them some foot to get their liking and once Affinity’s up, they’ll follow you.”
“Bah bah bah, I don’t want no stinky rats. How disgusting.”
Jiaojiao furiously ran towards another Purple Treasure Chest to fling it open.
Mew mew —
A white cat the size of a knuckle treaded out of the treasure chest.
“A non-battle pet, haha, me likey.”
Jiaojiao grabbed the white cat, claiming a non-battle pet for herself.
Jiaojiao went along to open the third treasure chest. This time, luck was not on her side as the treasure chest was empty. She wasted another chance.
The fourth time was another empty chest while the fifth time, and the fifth was the same.
With her five chest-opening chances used up, Jiaojiao was teleported out by force.
“No fair! Why didn’t I get a non-cla.s.s-limited Divine Pet?”
Jiaojiao who was teleported out was still indignant.
“Don’t even think about looting a good item without incredible luck.”
“F*ck that, I’m gonna give it a go.”
The Cat that Sings walked towards a Red Treasure Chest. She was not interested in pets so she chose to open the chests for equipment.
With the first Red Treasure Chest opened, The Cat that Sings obtained a level 200 Gold Quality dirk. It was suitable for her but the quality was not up to her standard.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
The Cat that Sings lifted five Red Treasure Chest in one go, fetching one Gold, three Blue, and one White Quality weapon.
The Red Treasure Chest indeed dropped equipment but not a piece of Purple Quality equipment was in sight. They were all trash.
“F*ck, f*ck!”
The Cat that Sings brutally kicked the treasure chests and soon, her body turned in a white light, indicating her teleportation out.
Next up was Little Elf from the Magical Realm. She chose the Green Treasure Chests. After five chances, Little Elf helplessly left with a pile of Random Teleportation Scrolls.
There were only Li Yi and Qian’er left in the treasure chest stage.
Qian’er pointed at Li Yi, “You first.”
“I’ll be first then.”
Li Yi walked towards a Red Treasure Chest.
it was said that there was a certain trick in looting the treasure chests in the tower. It was a pity though, there were many peculiar and strange tactics in the forums back in the past life, but they were all impractical as they were all playing to the gallery.
This time, Li Yi attempted a tactic from the past life’s forums by opening in the order of one red, two purple, and two reds.
Five turns and five empty chests later, Li Yi was teleported out without seeing a thing.
“Wahahahahahaha…”
“Hahahahaha—”
“You sure have unbelievable luck.”
This outcome had the ladies ridiculing him by turns, leaving Li Yi speechless.
Soon, Qian’er was teleported out. She reaped the biggest reward among the party, bagging home two non-battle pets, one Blue, one Gold, and one Purple Quality equipment.
Compared to Li Yi, Qian’er had Lady Luck was smiling at her.
“The treasure chest stage’s too s.h.i.+tty,” Jiaojiao could not get over it.
Li Yi shook his head, “It’s not the treasure chest stage’s s.h.i.+tty, it’s just that we don’t have incredible luck.”
In the past life, there were many players who looted uber legendary equipment from the Tower of Remorse and rose to the top amongst the experts’ listing.
In King of Pantheon, game control might play a huge part but exquisite equipment still defined the thin line between success and failure.
Li Yi released his Repair Bot to repair the girls’ equipment. In pa.s.sing, he mailed an Orange Quality scepter to Chen Yang.
With King of Pantheon’s unification, there was no longer a restriction in distance for mailing or posting.
Although Fatty had gotten his hand on an Orange Quality scepter, G.o.d of Elements, the Summoner cla.s.s was not in need of just one weapon, they required plenty of weapons.
By equipping Admonis.h.i.+ng Quarterstaff during pet summoning to summon multiple pets before switching to G.o.d of Elements, the result would prove unimaginable.
“Let’s go!”
At the swing of Li Yi’s arm, he set out together with the ladies.
…
Ever since Brother Windcloud Nine became Emperor of the Continent, the commotion in Pantheon World has yet to cease. Many players who were resentful towards him rather defect and be stateless than listen to his orders.
As of now, the count on stateless force led by Drifting Snow was amounting to over 5 million. They scattered around the Pantheon Continent and would a.s.semble at times to lay siege on major cities.
If the development and security level of the countries under the Emperor was too low, said Emperor had to abdicate. They were doing this to force Brother Windcloud out of the throne.
Only, they were naive to think so. For the National System, if the Celestial Capital remained safe and sound, then destroying all major cities would not overthrow the Emperor’s position.
The actions of Drifting Snow and his men were merely dribs and drabs that did not pose a threat to Brother Windcloud Nine’s position.
Compared to the stateless force, another major force, Fluttering Snow Alliance unexpectedly exercised low profile. They held their tongues, accepting Brother Windcloud Nine’s orders such as paying tribute without complaint.
Back in Invincible Continent, an incident took place and that was the separation of the Three Major Guilds Alliance. The alliance was forced to dissolve.
Defiantly Tyrannical scrambled for the crown at great expense. He was not a rich guy like Brother Windcloud Nine. He invested a large sum of cash only to receive nothing in return. He could not afford to lose any money.
Yang Xingchen borrowed a lot of money in an attempt to go all out yet he lost it all. With a group of people hunting him down on the debt, he had not appeared online for days now. It was not known where he was hiding.
It was basically the same situation with the other leaders of the Three Major Guilds Alliance, either losing a little or a lot. As their losses could not be recovered, they started to play the blame game that in the end, turned physical.
Looking out for their own interests, the originally solidarity brothers were now enemies.
With the curtains falling on Three Major Guilds Alliance, apart from Defiantly Tyrannical still persisting on his own, the other forces have since sought refuge with Fatty Chen Yang.
Chen Yang might not have one of the most brilliant minds but he had quite the skill in roping people in. Elites of Three Major Guilds Alliance like I Love Beast Beast, I Love b.o.o.b b.o.o.b, etc joined in after a few words by him.
Fatty had a few tricks up his sleeve; not long after he rose to power, he managed to settle the issues Queen Jiao was not able to despite a few years she had been in power.
With the disbandment of Three Major Guilds Alliance, although it had nothing to do with Fatty, it happened during his reign, inadvertently giving him credit.
Just as Li Yi was about to lead his women into the Tower of Remorse, a rumor started to spread in the World Channel.
“As former Star Fire Guild’s Guild Master Fallen Star was drunk last night, he slipped and drowned to his death.”
The sender of this rumor did not display their name but the statement stirred a shock within the community.
Yang Xingchen was not as famous as Li Yi but he was still a prestigious figure in Invincible Continent. Moreover, he was a romantic and a Casanova.
“Yang Xingchen died?”
“F*ck, no way? I was with him in the Tower of Remorse a few days ago.”
“F*ck me, I was going to introduce my sister to him. How did he die?”
“F*ck me, he borrowed 10 million from me. Who am I going to ask the money from if he’s dead?”
“Motherf*cking b*tch, I loaned him money too…”
New pertaining to Yang Xingchen was buzzing in the World Channel for days but n.o.body really knew the truth. However, since then, no one ever saw Yang Xingchen appearing online.
The once tenth place Fallen Star of the Top Ten Main Tanks in the past life went missing. No one knew whether he was dead or alive.
When the rumor on Yang Xingchen broke out in the World Channel, Li Yi teamed up with the four girls in the tower’s twenty-ninth floor and cleared the suspending stage.
Jiaojiao’s jaw dropped, “Yang Xingchen’s dead? For real?”
Li Yi glared at her, “What? Are you interested in him?”
“Bah bah bah…” Jiaojiao stiffened her back and narrowed her eyes. “Yes, I’m interested in him. You have something to say to that?”
It was obvious she was trying to irritate him.
“It’s good that Yang Xingchen’s dead. If it weren’t for him…”
Li Yi shook his head and ended his speech there.
At the mention of Yang Xingchen, Hua Feihua would come into Li Yi’s mind. Only, although Yang Xingchen toyed with Hua Feihua, Hua Feihua was not all that innocent. If it were not for her own l.u.s.t, how would Yang Xingchen succeed?
Come to think of it, it was not looking good for Big Boy to get involved with Hua Feihua…
Staring at Qian’er, Li Yi thought about it but decided against telling her about Big Boy and Hua Feihua.
Little Elf from the Magical Realm chimed in, “I heard Yang Xingchen borrowed from a lot of people, owning a b.u.t.tload of debt. He even sold the shares off his father’s company in secret. Even if he’s not dead, he’s in a lot of trouble.”
Li Yi nodded, “He has no one but himself to blame.”
Swinging her arm, The Cat that Sings was growing impatient, “Stop jabbering nonsense. Are we going on to continue or what? I’m p.i.s.sing my pants waiting.”
Li Yi turned serious, “For the sake of Sister Cat not p.i.s.sing her pants, let’s move on!”
The girls stifled their giggles and followed him into the thirtieth floor.
Tst tst pst psst bcz bcz kch kch kch kch kch…
A strange noise was heard and after the white light faded, Li Yi and the rest found themselves in a checkpoint of huge gears.
Their luck ran out. They did not meet with a boss, instead they were in the hardest gear stage.
Li Yi closely examined for a while. His head was dizzy from watching the intertwining gears.
“Jiaojiao, it’s all on you for this stage.”
Jiaojiao thumped her chest, “No problem, leave it to me.”
Apart from Jiaojiao, no one else in the party was proficient in the gear stage.
“I’m going in!”
The Cat that Sings was first to make a dash in. Sister Cat was holding her pee and it was about to burst.
Kch pft pft…
Unsuccessful in leaping over the first gear, she was wrung into it before disappearing…
