Chapter 119: Treasure Hunting

Translator: 549690339

Death Black Arrow: Upon activation, marks the target. If the marked target dies within one minute, summons a Silver Skeleton, the class of the summoned skeleton is determined by the target.

Even though he did not see the specific usage effect, Li Yao was already very satisfied. Just for silver, it surpasses the elite level.

Being a part of the Dark Ranger’s heritage, Li Yao realized that the Dark Ranger is more adept at shadow assassination.

The Light Ranger is a distance-damage profession that utilizes geographical features for maneuvering, while the Dark Ranger emphasizes more on stealth and assassination.

Moreover, its passive effect could greatly ensure a Ranger’s survivability.

Although the Death Black Arrow seems to have no offensive power and is hardly different from the Mark of Death, the more enemies it kills, the more minions it summons, thereby improving survival.

“No wonder no one could complete the mission of the Dark Ranger in my previous life; the Queen’s personality is really quirky.”

Li Yao was overjoyed. This is an inherent requirement of the mission. That is, without gaining the appreciation of NPCs, even if promotion conditions are met, one cannot become an elite profession.

However, Li Yao frowned soon after. The carnival performance that would take place a few days later would, in reality, present challenges from various administrative districts and players who had completed the elite tasks and obtained the tickets.

There are numerous rules and many uncertain factors; now is certainly not the time to let his guard down. Even though his current techniques are advanced, the situation is not as simple.

There is one more thing to cheer about. Because of gaining 50% experience at level 10, Li Yao has now reached level 11.

Li Yao opened the level leaderboard and saw that his level 11 was still in first place.

His three teammates, who had completed their tasks, although not at level 11, were over halfway there. They were just behind him, trailing in the ranks.

In addition, there was another stranger, a player from another administrative district, placed in the fifth spot.

Li Yao racked his brains but couldn’t recall who this person was and quickly let it go. He was well aware that many experts didn’t necessarily level up in practice.

Moreover, due to luck, a high level does not necessarily mean the person is incredibly impressive.

When Li Yao closed the ranking board, he had already arrived at the Central District where a distinct auction house stands.

Li Yao immediately found a seat and started looking for items he could use.

As time went on, more and more players started using the auction house after reaching level 5 and leaving the Beginner’s Village. Small towns also had small auction houses.

Li Yao opened the list directly and began to browse quickly. The first thing he searched for was the skill book.

After a few glances, he found quite a number of Hunter’s skill books.

Since few people play as a Hunter, Li Yao found three he could use for himself.

Throw Hand Grenade, Flying Round Blade, Deterrence.

Throw Hand Grenade was not expensive and was in abundant amounts.

It simply enhances the power and the effect of the hand grenade costing only 2 silver coins. Ordinary hunters would not learn engineering at this point, nor would they spend money buying expensive hand grenades from the shop. Therefore, it wasn’t popularly acquired and was seen as a wasteful skill.

Li Yao scorned this idea, believing that no skill is wasteful, it just depends on the situation it’s applied in.

The ordinary throwing hand grenade increases the power of the hand grenade by 20% and its special effect by 25%.

Li Yao, of course, knew that later on there would be sonic hand grenades, flash hand grenades, knocking hand grenades, and even black hole hand grenades, among others. Each with different effects and application methods. Having the skill and not having the skill are two completely different concepts.

Flying Round Blade: Throws two flying blades, attacking enemies along the path. It causes 110% of weapon damage when thrown and 85% of weapon damage when returning, with a 10% chance of making enemies bleed, causing 30% of weapon damage per second for ten seconds, and slowing the enemy’s speed by 15%.

Even though the damage seems high, it is actually weapon damage, and it refers to the flying wheel whose damage is generally equivalent to a dagger of the same level. So it’s not as appealing as it sounds.

However, throwing the flying wheel is also a good skill. After purchasing or crafting a flying wheel, it can be thrown. It is considered a medium range group attack means, and it also has some slow and bleeding effects.

Furthermore, once it is enhanced with runes, it becomes a peculiar group attack skill, which is very buggy.

Li Yao had to spend 15 silver coins to buy it at the listed price.

As for Deterrence, it was a piece of gear that Li Yao bought for a sky-high price of one gold coin. The moment Li Yao saw this skill, he bought it.

He too was surprised, he didn’t expect to see this skill book this early. In his plan, it would be nice to learn this skill at level 20. It was definitely an unexpected bonus.

Deterrence was very rare, it could be described as the invincible skill of the

Hunter.

Deterrence: The body is surrounded and protected by magical weapons, blocking all attacks for 10 seconds. Its cooldown time is 5 minutes, during deterrence, one cannot initiate an attack.

So-called blocking all attack, in reality, means blocking close combat weapons’ attacks and long-range weapons like bow and arrow’s attacks. But it does not include magic spells, of course, with rune enhancement, it is capable of blocking magic.

This skill is extremely rare. Even Li Yao didn’t know how one could obtain this skill book early on. One gold coin might seem like a lot, but it’s actually not expensive. An invincible skill like the Knight’s Holy Shield is just as precious.

Li Yao was very satisfied and started to look for some essential blueprints. He unhesitatingly bought the ones that he needed to practice on to increase his proficiency.

Li Yao had already visited the warehouse twice and deposited quite a few of these. The scarce and must-learn blueprints cost him five gold coins.

After level 5, players generally start getting side jobs, and they will soon need these blueprints.

Once players catch on, the prices of these blueprints can jump hundreds, even thousands of times.

Of course, Li Yao was doing this for the guild. He planned to specifically train some lifestyle players. Even though these players have no combat power, they are indispensable for the growth of the guild.

Suddenly, Li Yao found another precious blueprint, Dizzy Hand Grenade. This was an engineering schematic which was perfect for Li Yao to continue practicing on his engineering skill points. Besides, the Dizzy Hand Grenade is a very useful type of hand grenade, equivalent to having one more group attack type control measure.

Li Yao immediately bid on it, extracted it from the mailbox and started learning it right away.

“Ah, I sold the wrong item.”

Suddenly, a somewhat teary female voice reached Li Yao’s ears.

“What item? Are you really that upset about it?” another softer female voice asked.

“Ahhhhh, it’s the blueprint I use to practice my engineering skills. I was selling other stuff, and put it up by accident because I was chatting to some classmates. I wanted to cancel it, but it was gone in an instant.” “How much did you sell it for?”

“I forgot, it seems to be ten copper coins, I was selling Linen Cloth.”

“Alas, nothing can be done now, the transaction has been successful.”

“What should I do? My engineering skill is almost intermediate level. I’ve lost a lot of money, I was hoping to make some money when it becomes advanced level…”

Li Yao was stunned. He didn’t expect this to happen. Although the two girls were quite pretty, he had no plans to return it. A transaction is a transaction.

Let them learn from their mistakes.

The next sentence caught his attention, though.

“Next time, be careful. We’re making extra money practicing our life skills, be smarter next time,” said the soft-spoken girl…
