Chapter 633: Demigod Equipment; Set Attributes
The Grand Tournament is now over!
A loud system message echoed in the air, announcing the end of the great event. Right after that, the system message continued announcing the competitors’ rankings and their prizes.
***
Congratulations! Your ranking in the Grand Tournament is Number One!
You’ve been granted the title of ‘The Grand Champion of the Grand Tournament’!
As the announcement rang in Qin Ruo’s ears, everything that was before him suddenly started to morph and in a flash, he was transported out of the Mystical Sanctuary.
Oddly, there was no noise from the cheering player crowd—Qin Ruo wasn’t transported straight back to Savis Town or a Resurrection Portal. Instead, there was a wisp of a soothing floral scent lingering in the air. Before opening his eyes, Qin Ruo could feel that the anxiety and weariness from the battle in the Mystical Sanctuary subside after breathing in this comforting floral scent.
Surprised, Qin Ruo opened his eyes…
He saw that he was standing on a small pebbled road, in a serene quiet courtyard; plum blossoms bloomed beautifully everywhere as far as he could see.
Seeing this, Qin Ruo was surprised and impressed by the place’s beauty.
‘Where am I?’
If the system message didn’t butt in with its announcement, reminding Qin Ruo of his prizes, he might still be mesmerized by the plum blossom courtyard.
Obtained 50,000 Honor Points!
Obtained 100 Reputation Points!
Obtained the Golden Battle Flag!
Qin Ruo was shocked to hear the third message.
Wait!
The Golden Battle Flag?
What good would a flag do for him?
As he was confused by this, the system message had stopped making a sound. Qin Ruo felt very uncomfortable and instinctively pondered, “Perhaps I overdid it and crossed a line in the Mystical Sanctuary? So, the developer had penalized me by subtracting some of the prizes?”
This didn’t make sense…
He quickly opened his backpack and immediately saw the golden flag silently sitting in it… as he set his eyes on the flag, descriptions started to appear in his mind, explaining about the flag.
Golden Battle Flag (Bound to Qin Ruo).
The player who owns this flag is allowed to meet the Divine Champion “Warrior of Endless Battle”. The player can redeem the prizes from the Grand Tournament by handing over the Golden Battle Flag to the Warrior of Endless Battle. The prizes are: a piece of Tier 6 Demigod equipment, a random Tier 6 Magic skill, and a Divinity Crystal of any element…
“…..”
After Qin Ruo finished reading the description of the Golden Battle Flag, Qin Ruo’s Elemental Perception had now completely enveloped the areas 100 meter-radius around him.
After checking his surroundings, Qin Ruo was surprised to see that he was in fact inside Moonrise City, about ten meters away from the city’s busiest street. Faraway from where he stood, Qin Ruo could see the famous building in Moonrise City—Moonlit Restaurant.
So, he was now standing inside Castellan Mansion of the Moonrise City.
As he had acquired these information, Qin Ruo scanned the surroundings inside Castellan Mansion and then he saw him—at the end of the pebbled road stood an NPC. His eyes closed as he slowly sipped some tea; the elegance in his movements felt as though he had completely fused together with this beautiful floral scent within the mansion.
That was the castellan of Moonrise City.
The Warrior of Endless Battle!
This was the most powerful Divine Berserker and also the strongest Warrior in the Angel Faction.
***
As the strongest Warrior and the highest ranked NPC of the Angel Faction stood before him, Qin Ruo didn’t lose his mind from the overwhelming excitement he felt.
He stood there and pondered.
Then, he sent private messages to Homme Fatale and the others, inquiring their status and situation.
“Ha!”
“How are we doing? We’re doing great!!”
The thrilled voice of Wandering Soul said immediately after his private message was sent.
“Right! Boss! How are the stats of that equipment of yours? Come on, show us! We want to look at the Demigod equipment too! Let’s compare its stats with ours.”
“You’ve all gotten your equipment?” Qin Ruo asked keenly.
Hearing his question, his friends on the other side of the private chat suddenly became quiet.
“What?”
“Boss Qin, you haven’t gotten your prizes yet?”
“No way. When we were transported out, the prizes were already delivered straight into our banks…”
“Yeah, me too.”
“Oh, no. It’s not that they’re not giving me the prizes. I’ve still got the Golden Battle Flag with me and the system wanted me to meet the Warrior of Endless Battle…” Qin Ruo quickly explained his situation, calming everyone down.
“Ah, so that’s why.”
Black Rock sighed in relief. “It seems that the Grand Champion has a different kind of protocol to go through to get the prizes…”
“No.”
“Perhaps they wanted to give him some options when accepting the prize.” Violet Orchid’s voice suddenly butted in and explained to everyone who was present in the private chat group. “Little Ruo’s prize and the prizes that you’ve gotten are gears that one could only equip after advancing to Tier 6. There’s a difference between sending the prizes straight to you and giving you the option to choose what kind of prize you want.”
“We still haven’t got the faintest on what a Demigod equipment is…” Violet Orchid continued with her deduction. “So, what stats are good or bad… we have no idea at all. Little Ruo, keep the Golden Battle Flag first. We’ll wait until we’re all Tier 6 and by then there ought to be more and more Demigod gears showing up in the game. Then, you’ll know what kind of equipment to choose.”
Then, she paused momentarily before continuing, “And also the Divinity Crystal.”
“When we’ve advanced to Tier 6, we should have completely fused together with our Divinities. Although getting the Divinities isn’t that difficult, the ones that we got are mostly Shadow-type… it’ll be great if we get to choose the Divinity’s element too. We’ll wait and see what other new benefits that the various elements have after the game transitions to its new version.”
“Yeah.”
Qin Ruo nodded. Violet Orchid, as expected, had analyzed everything very nicely.
***
Standing in the courtyard of Castellan Mansion, Qin Ruo chatted and chatted with his friends, excited by the Demigod gear’s stats and attributes—having completely forgotten that the Warrior of Endless Battle was still waiting for him up ahead.
***
The Demigod gears were indeed better than the Legendary gears!
According to the stats that were given by several players, these gears not only possessed twice the stats of the Legendary gears, their Affinity was also better–the Demigod gears’ were 15% while the Legendary gears’ were 10%. If they could acquire a full set of equipment like these, the strength of the player who owned the set would multiply by a lot.
Other than that, their max HP and MP would also swell up to great heights too.
For example, Wandering Soul’s Earthdragon Armor granted its user 50 points of Vitality… this would translate to 750 HP. If he had acquired an Earthdragon Armor set, his HP would have soared up by 4000 points… no, perhaps even by 5000 points!
Other than the basic stats and attributes, these Demigod gears also included other enchanted or imbued skills. There were skills for offense, defense, and even support…
These were better than the equipment the Ultimate Boss dropped.
And these were still not the best part of the Demigod equipment.
After advancing to Tier 6, the players would have acquired the strength that was equivalent to that of a Divine Champion. So, the equipment they wore would need something extra to signify their status and boost their strength…
There was also the “Set Attribute” that came along with the Demigod equipment.
After owning a number of equipment of the same set, the equipment would unlock its potential, pushing its value to a peak.
Wandering Soul’s Earthdragon Armor was a part of the Earthdragon Armor set…
Earthdragon Armor, Earthdragon Helm, Earthdragon Gauntlet, Earthdragon Greaves, and Earthdragon Boots.
A total of five pieces in the set.
If the player had acquired two pieces of the set, the first hidden Set Attribute would be unlocked—the Max Vitality would be raised by 100 points.
To Swordmasters, 100 Vitality was equal to 1500 HP!
After obtaining three pieces of the set, the effective time limit for the skill Spiral Drill would be increased by one second!
The number of feats a Swordmaster could achieve with this was unthinkable. Raising the time limit from 1.5 seconds to 2.5 seconds! That would make this sword wielder obscenely powerful.
After obtaining four pieces, the success rate of critical attacks would be raised up by 10%!
And finally, if one were to acquire all the pieces… all the aforementioned stats would be doubled!
If one were to collect all the pieces of a Demigod equipment set, it was like acquiring the power of Gods to the NPCs.
Even though the Elementalists’ Demigod gears didn’t have the same obscene stats that Wandering Soul’s Earthdragon Armor set had, they were still powerful in their own rights. Having these babies equipped, the Elementalists’ combat prowess would soar to obscene heights.
After seeing what these Demigod equipment could offer, Wandering Soul and the other Fallen Angels, including Homme Fatale, were all psyched to advance to Tier 6!
Only after they had advanced to Tier 6 would they be able to equip these Demigod equipment. The lowest level requirement to equipment these godly gears was Level 60…
Only after advancing to Tier 6, they would have the means and strength to collect the other parts of their Demigod equipment set.
Why? According to the information provided by these equipment, the monsters that dropped them weren’t something they could handle at the time…
These monsters were all Divine tier!
Only Tier 7 monsters and Bosses would drop these Demigod equipment.
It wasn’t difficult for Qin Ruo to imagine that.
After the details of the Demigod equipment were spread to the public, everyone would have the same thought too—to grind for more experience points and advance to Tier 6!
***
After chatting with his friends and ignoring the Warrior of Endless Battle for a long time, a loud system message suddenly interrupted the heated discussion amongst the Fallen Angels.
“The Currency Exchange System is now online!”
“Every player can now exchange their ingame gold coins to Chinese Yuan via their banks!”
“The exchange rate is—10 gold coins to 1 Chinese Yuan!”
***
Surprised, Qin Ruo inhaled deeply and raised his head up to the sky.
“Finally…”
“The Currency Exchange System has launched!”
***
That wasn’t all.
“The City Building System is now online!”
A loud system message echoed in the Mythical Continent.
“From now on, every qualified League Leader from the Moonrise City and Sin City can visit their respective city’s Castellan Mansions to register for the Pioneer Quest from the Castellans. Go, brave adventurers! Go forth and establish the first human strongholds in the Underworld!”
