“What are you looking for?”
Hidden Lurker suddenly heard a familiar voice while looking around the ground.
“Liuyun?” Hidden Lurker raised his head wondering who it was.
Nian Liuyun was squatting nearby in low spirits. Lethargically, he told Hidden Lurker, “After you drop your equipment, no matter how hard you search, you won’t find them. More than half an hour has pa.s.sed. Even if no one picked them up, they would have been erased…”
Hidden Lurker was on the verge of tears, “If it was just an equipment, I will not have came back to search for it. Oh, have you seen something that looks like a key?”
Hidden Lurker spoke as he drew the shape of Atlanta’s key.
“I saw it.” Nian Liuyun said.
Hearing what Nian Liuyun said, Hidden Lurker instantly regained his spirit. He leaped towards Nian Liuyun and said, “Quickly give it to me!”
Nian Liuyun waved his arms and hit Hidden Lurker aside. He said tiredly, “Quan Zhen Sect’s people took it…”
“Quan Zhen Sect?” Hidden Lurker’s hopes were raised then crashed straight down.
If someone else picked it up, it would be possible to buy it back but Quan Zhen Sect was a bunch of sneaky people that could inflate a ten-cent item for a hundred dollars… Furthermore, it was his, even if it had no value, they would not simply return it.
“Why do they want this piece of rubbish?” Hidden Lurker said upsetly.
“The Priest said that whatever you dropped, even if it takes up s.p.a.ce in the inventory, they cannot throw it away…” Nian Liuyun stated.
“d.a.m.n! These b.a.s.t.a.r.ds.” Hidden Lurker had gone mad, “Why did you not s.n.a.t.c.h it back for me?”
Nian Liuyun lowered his head and spoke softly, “I cannot defeat… them” Nian Liuyun mumbled but his meaning was clear.
“F*ck…”
Hidden Lurker saw how pitiful Nian Liuyun was and could not bring himself to speak any further. He simply sat down beside Nian Liuyun and they became brothers in distress.
By then, Quan Zhen Sect had already returned to their guild headquarters.
At Quan Zhen Sect’s guild headquarters, Li Xue and her three sisters were there. Once Fearless reached the meeting hall, he asked the ladies, “Are you ready?”
“Ready!” Li Xue replied.
“Ready for what?” Everyone asked in confusion.
“Old Li, bring the Flower Goblin here.” Fearless followed Li Xue out of the meeting hall, greeting everyone along the way.
After exiting the meeting hall, they turned at the forge and everyone followed Fearless and the four ladies to the back of the drug refinery.
After they reached, everyone was shocked to see that an originally empty ground had out of nowhere, became filled with planted herbs. It had become a field of herbs.
“Thousand Leaves Gra.s.s, Death Flower…” Frost Blade identified the herbs in the field one by one then exclaimed, “These are the most expensive herbs in the market, their seeds must have cost a lot…”
Li Xue shyly said, “Actually, it is not much. If we had a better Herb Farmer, the results will be even better than this.”
“Put the Flower Goblin in!” Fearless ordered Ming Du as he pointed at the herb field. Ming Du put the Flower Goblin into the herb field then pressed ‘release’ in the pet tab.
It was weird. Usually when a battle pet was released, it would either disappear or return to its wild beast state but when Ming Du released the Flower Goblin, nothing changed.
Just then, everyone received a system notification.
Flower Goblin’s spirit (Guild’s Beast Spirit) (LV25) (Gold) (Elite)
Life Power: All guild members HP+500, MP+500
Growth of Creation: All plants within the guild’s headquarters growth speed +50%.
Elf’s Spirit: Everyday, the Flower Goblin will produce a spiritual petal, ten spiritual petals can be manufactured into a Crown of the Flower Goblin.
Crown of the Flower Goblin: Consumable equipment, equip to have 100% on-the-spot resurrection. After resurrection, equipment will disappear.>
Seeing the system notification, everyone was shocked.
“Guild’s beast spirit? Where did this come from?” Spring Halo asked Fearless in shock.
Other people did not know what guild’s beast spirit was but Spring Halo who partic.i.p.ated in the beta testing knew what it was.
Guild’s beast spirit was just like a guild treasure which can give the guild headquarters and players extra attributes. As to exactly what they give, no one knows as during the beta testing period, it only appeared once in the European server out of the three servers.
Based on its literal meaning, a guild’s beast spirit belonged to the same category as a BOSS. The stronger a beast spirit BOSS is, naturally, the stronger its addition of attributes.
During the beta testing, once beast spirits’ attributes appeared, a lot of guilds would chase after it. However, once the beta testing ended, a second beast spirit never appeared. The guild that owned the beast spirit also never appeared, as though it disappeared into thin air.
“Yes! That’s how it came about. No one knew that the guild’s beast spirit and the Crown of the Flower Goblin were actually two in one body. Hehe, what a stupid bunch.” Fearless chuckled as though he enjoyed making fun of others.
“No wonder it was the European server. You were on a business trip back then right…” Spring Halo said.
“Yup.” Fearless nodded and said, “Back then, I was there for half a year. Before I came back, I gave out my attributes then deleted my account.”
“Tsk tsk, deleting after acc.u.mulating everything. This is indeed Fearless’ style!” Everyone agreed.
Fearless had no idea how to catch other BOSS to become battle pets and Quan Zhen Sect’s players had never seen a beast spirit before but the Flower Goblin’s spirit was undeniably very unformidable.
HP and MP upper limits were the foundational attributes for players. Naturally, the higher they were, the better it was. Even stronger was the familiarity induction effect…
They were still in the early stages of the game. Pharmacists were still at the stage whereby they still picked herbs from the wild. The herb production system had not matured but later in the middle stages, the bigger guilds will start planting herb fields for their own interests. As players’ demands for medicinal products increase, the resp.a.w.ning speed of wild herbs would be too slow to meet the increasing demand.
In-game was different from reality. Domestically produced herbs had the exact same effects as those wild grown. Even if they added fertiliser, the quality of the herbs to increase familiarity levels would not be affected. Therefore, the growth speed of the herb fields directly affected the guilds’ supply. By then, a new sunrise industry would emerge and it would be what Li Xue said about “Herb Farmers”, not simply farmers. This explanation shall be kept for another day…
Other than increasing levels of familiarity, the Crown of the Flower Goblin’s resurrection attribute was also highly antic.i.p.ated by everyone… However, it would take ten days to make only one Crown of the Flower Goblin. Even though Quan Zhen Sect had so few people to equip, it would still take them at least three months. For other guilds, they would only be able to equip the front line team.
The problem with this was that it was a one-time usage consumable… The question was whether 10% of experience was worth a Crown of the Flower Goblin. Of course, based on Quan Zhen Sect’s nature, they would still keep it even if they had no use for it.
