Chapter 93: Blessing Oil

Tiger Snake was dead, Old Four joyfully charged past the checkpoint and reached the alliance stronghold. Old Big rolled his eyes, feeling helpless that Old Four's momentum in chopping the Tiger Snake was like chopping a boss, then he ran past too. Just as Lin Jiale was following behind Old Four with a smile, planning to charge past the checkpoint, the mouse suddenly swiped over an item's name.

Lin Jiale didn't pay attention and ran past the checkpoint. Now we are big shots, pay attention to our status, we can't just pick up garbage everywhere like before. Besides, the account on the Thunder Server is useless anyway, and the little monsters in Venom Mountain Valley haven't dropped anything good.

But after Lin Jiale ran past the checkpoint, he hesitated, remembering the item name 'Blessing Oil' that the mouse swept over earlier. It seemed like he hadn't seen this kind of thing before.

“Wait!” Lin Jiale called out, turned back, searched on the Tiger Snake's corpse, and picked up a light blue small bottle from the ground. It looked a bit like a magic potion (small quantity), but much lighter in color, and no effect was noted in the attributes, no HP or MP increase, wondering what it was for.

“I picked up a weird bottle!” Lin Jiale opened his backpack to show Old Big and Old Four: “It's what the Tiger Snake exploded when Old Four killed it!”

Old Four turned to look, unconcerned: “What does a Tiger Snake drop? Throw it!”

“Throw it? Kid! This is food!” Old Big lectured Old Four in a weird voice, then to Lin Jiale: “Second Brother! Don't listen to him! What isn't money? Don't waste it! Drink it! Isn't that a potion!?”

Lin Jiale chuckled, immediately drank the Blessing Oil, and the system prompt appeared: “Congratulations, your weapon has obtained Luck...”, Lin Jiale was stunned, opened the equipment panel to check, Sea Soul's attributes were still magic 1-5, curse +5, where was the luck attribute added? Didn't see it.

Recalling that before it was like that, didn't show up initially then appeared, Lin Jiale took down Sea Soul, put it in the backpack, and when checking, not only didn't add luck, but reduced curse a bit to +4.

Lin Jiale angrily roared: “Damn! That Blessing Oil fucked up my weapon's curse a little!”

“Impossible!” Old Big and Old Four were shocked, turned to look.

“Fuck!” Lin Jiale cursed: “What is this thing? Drinking it reduces attributes?” Old Big and Old Four looked at poor Lin Jiale with sympathetic eyes. His 5 points of curse came from when they killed in the Stone Tomb Great Riot before. Curse doesn't increase by one per kill, it might not increase after killing dozens, reaching 5 is already rare. Old Big and Old Four's weapons' curse was highest 3 points, but they might have killed more than Lin Jiale.

Moreover, it's said that after the transfer, the Legend server version updated to 1.04, red name penalties for killing increased. In the past, Lin Jiale killed hundreds in newbie village, but after one night became white. Now, red name duration increases with kill count, supposedly killing 2 people doubles the red name time of killing 1, killing 3 doubles again based on killing 2! And so on. If Lin Jiale killed hundreds converted to this version, probably won't be white for life.

So now curse might be hard to add more, who would willingly be red named? Being slashed by big swords, shot by arrows, can't enter city, to level up is like a street rat being treated as boss by players, fun?

From Lin Jiale's experience, curse attribute seems to have much higher drop rate, and in PK, after killing opponent, the chance to drop their equipment is quite high, truly a must-have artifact for leveling and PK!

The only downside is that after adding curse, magic attack power seemed to drop a lot. Monsters that 5 thunder could kill now sometimes need 6 or 7 thunder, maybe illusion?

Lin Jiale, who was robbed of a bit attribute, was dejectedly muttering, following behind Old Big and Old Four towards the Earth City. Upon entering the city, the Earth City was like a school cafeteria, way more people than flies in a cafeteria! Packed with new players in sky blue light armor, which made Lin Jiale and them feel a bit of aftershock. Luckily they came back instead of using return scrolls, otherwise trying to squeeze out from a garbage heap-like safe area would be an impossible task. Mages are better, or use instant movement to fly away and run back. If encountering a Daoist or Warrior player who didn't have random... you'd just wait to be depressed to death!

Lin Jiale found a gap to squeeze into the edge of the safe area. Wearing his perverted top-tier equipment, he didn't dare stand outside the safe zone. Although Earth City was mostly light armor new players, big elephants fear ants, and Lin Jiale is a small mage.

Players from Thunder transferring to Light are much fewer compared to other servers. At least in Earth City, didn't see several players wearing 22+ level equipment, probably all hiding in some deep hole to level.

After repairing equipment in Earth City, purchasing potions, the three brothers plunged into the deep pig hole world. Because after transfer, many old players moved to Blaze Server and stayed on Thunder, relatively fewer players in high-level leveling areas like Light, so if not level up now, later when new players level up, these advanced monster maps will be crowded.

Thinking of the boss White Wild Boar and Evil Venom Snake that refreshed on Pig Hole 4th layer before, the three didn't linger in the first few layers, so along the vaguely remembered route straight down, after reaching Pig Hole 4th layer, circling the maze-like map several times, besides the wild boars breeding denser than before, still no sign of the cute big fat guy and the black shiny eight-legged venom snake.

Old Four was pulling monsters and said: “Maybe it's randomly refreshed? Or killed by other high-level players?”

Lin Jiale clicked his tongue in pity, he was very depressed that the huge axe Old Four mentioned wasn't picked up! Also didn't see players showing it off, don't know if level too low to lift it, or it's too heavy. According to recently seen by Old Four, the axe face alone is as big as a grinding plate!!!
