Chapter 16: Still a Poor Man
Qian Xing, who hastily chose the "Yes" button, only felt a blinding white light before him. When he opened his eyes, he found himself in a sealed room.
The room seemed to be entirely cast in bronze, with the four walls carved with countless scenes of fierce beasts, humans, and other creatures locked in deadly combat. The sculptures were vivid and exuded a fierce aura!
Various prompts flooded in:
"You have completed the task of causing three deaths among the 1023 Squad members, earning 200 points."
"You have completed the task of preventing the 1023 Squad from killing the disciple of the Golden Wheel Dharma King, Darba, with a completion grade of C, earning 300 points."
"Completion rate of the Beast Fighter preparation task is 85%, all basic attributes increased by one."
Qian Xing's original basic attributes were Strength 4, Agility 3, Stamina 4, and Spirit 7. Immediately, they became:
Strength 5, Agility 4, Stamina 5, and Spirit 8.
"You have killed a Level 2 Beast Fighter, the Precise Boar, and received a bonus of 200 points for a higher-level kill. After opening the chest, there is a 60% chance to gain 400 points, a 50% chance to obtain an equipment, a 50% chance to gain a skill, and a 50% chance to obtain other items."
The ancient bronze box Qian Xing obtained after killing Pudun automatically appeared before him from his storage space. The small box was simple in design, with no decorations on its surface, clearly not a high-quality item.
Qian Xing's current points reached 392 + 72 + 700 = 1164. After some thought, he chose the option to obtain equipment.
Immediately, a huge seven-colored wheel appeared before him, spinning rapidly and then stopping.
The wheel displayed that he had obtained the Precise Boar's rifle. Within a range of less than 200 meters, its attack power was equivalent to 26 points of strength.
Bullets: 6.
The rifle had armor-piercing kinetic energy, and its damage could be converted into strength points.
One shot from this rifle was much more powerful than his full-strength Nine Yin White Bone Claw.
"Phew! My luck is really good today. It seems I should do more good deeds in the future; I've heard that doing more good deeds can increase the chances of a lucky streak!"
The bronze box with silver patterns also automatically appeared from the storage space.
"You have killed the disciple of the Golden Wheel Dharma King, Darba, and received 400 points for a higher-level kill. After opening the chest, there is a 60% chance to gain 800 points, a 50% chance to obtain an equipment, a 50% chance to gain a skill, and a 50% chance to obtain other items."
Qian Xing's points now totaled 1164 + 400 = 1564, so he didn't need to choose.
Qian Xing remembered that Darba's golden demon-subduing staff had fallen to the ground and had not disappeared, and he had not picked it up.
Therefore, he did not want to choose the equipment option.
He already had the Nine Yin White Bone Claw, and too many skills would be overwhelming. He decided to take a gamble and choose other items.
The huge seven-colored wheel began to spin again and then stopped.
Finally, the prompt box appeared, calming Qian Xing's racing heart!
If the prompt box had not appeared, Qian Xing would have gained nothing this time.
At this stage, a character like Darba would be impossible for ten Qian Xings to kill. This was purely a stroke of luck.
He cautiously looked at the prompt board: "You have obtained a portion of Darba's stamina gained from practicing the Prajna Dragon Elephant Skill. Stamina +4, Strength +2, Agility +1."
Qian Xing immediately felt a scorching hot flow pour down from the top of his head, instantly filling his body with vitality and strength!
Checking his basic attributes, they had become:
Strength 7, Agility 5, Stamina 9, Spirit 8.
Qian Xing was overjoyed! For a beginner, an increase in basic attributes was more meaningful than any skill or equipment.
After all, no matter how powerful a skill was, it wouldn't be very strong at the beginning.
With increased stamina and strength, even if he couldn't win, he could at least run away for a longer time.
"Beast Fighter preparation, enhancement options displayed. You can choose your enhancement direction based on the points you have."
The bronze wall before him suddenly became smooth and bright, with rows of text and data appearing on it.
Witch Clan Bloodline: 1,300,000 points
先天道体: 120,000 points
Six-Winged Angel Bloodline: 1,000,000 points
Inferno Lord: 950,000 points
Titan Giant Bloodline: 900,000 points
Super Saiyan: 880,000 points
Superman Bloodline: 850,000 points
Almost all the powerful characters seen in novels, comics, and movies had their bloodlines listed here.
Each time Qian Xing saw the noble bloodlines that could shock heaven and earth, his eyes would light up, but when he saw the required points, he almost vomited three liters of blood!
These bloodlines were indeed good, but his points were only a thousandth of what was required. Wasn't this too much of a blow to his fragile heart?
Moreover, he saw that the green-haired zombie, which the horse-headed monster had swallowed, had an Ultimate Zombie Bloodline, ranked 81st among all bloodlines, requiring 40,000 points. Its initial form was the Iron-Armored Green-Haired Zombie!
Its fifth form was the Flying Night Demon, and its sixth form was the Golden-Haired Beast!
The first form of the Ultimate Zombie Bloodline, which required 40,000 points, was only this strong!
It would be better to exchange those points for some practical armor!
Bloodlines continued to appear, and Qian Xing felt increasingly dispirited. Seeing but not being able to obtain them, wasn't this just teasing him?
Suddenly, he remembered the magic crystal from the green-scaled monster's head.
He quickly took it out and respectfully asked, "Can you help me identify the name and use of this magic crystal?"
However, the bronze room did not change due to Qian Xing's attitude.
A large line of text appeared on the wall: "Identification of items costs 15 points."
"Damn!" Qian Xing's heart ached as if he had been stabbed!
Gritting his teeth, he shouted, "Identify!"
The result immediately appeared: This is a low-level magic crystal from the Armored Sword Demon. Its use is to enhance weapons, increasing sharpness by +1.
It can be fused with the user to gain some abilities of the Armored Sword Demon, requiring 300 points.
The Armored Sword Demon is a D+ level monster from the first layer of hell or the demon world.
This magic crystal can be exchanged for 200 points at the Beast Arena!
"Damn! It's a D+ level monster! And fusing with its abilities requires 300 points, while selling it to the Beast Arena can get 150 points! That's equivalent to completing the task of killing twenty-five Mongol soldiers!"
For a beginner, 300 + 150 = 450 points was a significant wealth, but for an expert, fusing with the uncertain abilities of the Armored Sword Demon was risky. What if he fused with the monster's 00xx ability?
Clearly, the designer of this Beast Arena space was an extremely perverted gambler. Paying points could only result in uncertain outcomes!
