Curse Binding Vajra: "It was precisely because of this special situation that the Main World suddenly shifted from the End of Dharma Era to the Spiritual Qi Recovery."
Heavenly Destiny Master: "No wonder I felt like Spiritual Energy was crazily flooding into my body when I was lying next to the Transmission Channel."
Zhang Yanhang had actually noticed this phenomenon earlier. Before he entered the Ashen World, every time the Transmission Channel activated, he could feel a myriad of Spiritual Energy washing over his body as he lay in bed.
But because of his limited ability to absorb energy, he could only intercept a small bit of this Spiritual Energy at most, the rest would merge into the surrounding air, significantly increasing the concentration of Spiritual Energy in and around their housing complex.
While in the Ashen World, his sensation regarding the concentration of Spiritual Energy became even more apparent. When he was inside the Ashen World, his Energy Value Recovery Speed could reach five times the recovery rate noted on the data panel as long as he activated the Limitless Universe Skill.
Even though it was already five times faster, Zhang Yanhang still found it too slow. However, when he was in the Main World, reaching twice the recovery rate noted on the data panel by actively utilizing the Limitless Universe Skill to recover energy was already quite impressive. It’s safe to say that there was a significant gap between the two.
After asking the most important question, Zhang Yanhang began to ponder what other high-priority issues he might have and quickly came up with a whole bunch.
Heavenly Destiny Master: "Group leader, why do I only get five items every time I Open treasure box?"
Heavenly Destiny Master: "Is it because my Luck is so bad that I don’t deserve to get more items?"
Curse Binding Vajra: "Your question is quite profound..."
Curse Binding Vajra: "I’m starting to wonder if you’re just showing off?"
Heavenly Destiny Master: "I’m genuinely concerned about my Luck. After all, every time I can only get five items, isn’t that just the minimum guaranteed number? Someone like you, a big shot, can definitely get a double-digit number of items from a single Treasure box, right?"
Curse Binding Vajra: "Getting five items from an individual Treasure box is already the upper limit."
Curse Binding Vajra: "Most of the time I can only get two or three..."
"Ah, so five items are already the limit for a Treasure box; no wonder I’ve only been able to get five items."
Zhang Yanhang had actually worried about this before—he sometimes wondered if other Awakeners with special abilities could get ten items from a single Treasure box. It seemed he was overthinking it.
Heavenly Destiny Master: "Then why can I only get Equipment one tier higher than the Treasure box? Why can’t I get Equipment that’s two tiers higher? It’s definitely because my Luck is too bad, right?"
Curse Binding Vajra: "The way you use ’only’ and ’just’ is very clever, you’re quite the seasoned Versailles operator."
Curse Binding Vajra: "Good grief, I always thought that getting Equipment higher than the Quality of the Treasure box was just an urban legend. Who knew it was true?!" Read full story at novel⸺fire.net
Curse Binding Vajra: "And you still hope to get Equipment two tiers higher than the Treasure box? That’s wishful thinking!"
Curse Binding Vajra: "When I normally Open treasure boxes, I usually only get items one tier lower than the Quality of the Treasure box."
Gu Mingyue lay on the bed looking at her phone screen, convinced that Zhang Yanhang was simply bragging, a strong whiff of Versailles arrogance wafting through, "Can he be this arrogant just because he’s awakened a Luck Talent? Damn Sea Seal."
Heavenly Destiny Master: "Group leader, I feel like my Treasure box drop rate is still too low. Is there any way to increase it?"
Curse Binding Vajra: "Let me ask, how low do you consider ’too low’ in terms of drop rates?"
Heavenly Destiny Master: "About seven or eight Monsters before dropping a single Treasure box—it’s really very low. Don’t you, group leader, get a Treasure box after killing maybe three or four Monsters, or even just two or three?"
Curse Binding Vajra: "..."
"Damn Sea Seal, when I saw him saying the drop rate was too low, I actually felt the urge to comfort him. But this so-called ’too low’ drop rate turned out to be seven or eight Monsters for one Treasure box—I’m completely out of my league compared to the Sea Seal’s environment."
Gu Mingyue couldn’t help but recall her painful experience of killing more than a hundred Monsters without dropping a single Treasure box. Even calculating the average, she had to take down thirty to forty Monsters before getting a Treasure box, which was no match for Zhang Yanhang, the Sea Seal’s drop rate.
Curse Binding Vajra: "You’re not asking questions; you’re relentlessly flexing on me without a break."
Heavenly Destiny Master: "Flexing? No way, I’m truly concerned about my own Luck."
Heavenly Destiny Master: "Apart from the question about the Treasure box, I also wanted to ask about Equipment. Having too much Equipment on is a hassle every time I put it on or take it off. Does the Ashen World have any one-click Gear transformation or user-friendly functions like that?"
Curse Binding Vajra: "Actually, there is. Equipment in the Ashen World can switch between two modes: normal state and hidden state. When switched to hidden state, Equipment can still provide bonus effects, but the defensive power and Attack Power, among other things, will disappear."
After thoroughly inquiring about how to hide his Equipment, Zhang Yanhang couldn’t wait to begin his experiment.
A second later, Zhang Yanhang stared at his bare body in silence, "So everything I’ve been wearing was actually Equipment?"
Because the dormitory door was still unlocked, Zhang Yanhang, fearing someone might burst in at any moment, quickly switched his Equipment back to the normal state.
After asking about the one-click Gear transformation, Zhang Yanhang once again asked some other questions of personal interest, such as about Attribute limits.
This was about the same as his previous guess, where the First Tier limit was twenty-five points, the Second Tier was Fifty points, and so on, with an increase of twenty-five points for each subsequent Tier. In other words, the Third Tier was Seventy-five points, and the Fourth Tier was one hundred points.
What Zhang Yanhang didn’t expect was that if an Attribute reached the Tier limit, Promotion to the next Tier would earn an extra reward. This really surprised Zhang Yanhang.
"So it seems that when Promoting to the next Tier in the future, I should max out all four main Attributes—Strength, Agility, Constitution, and Intelligence—first."
If there were Bonus rewards, but he didn’t get them, he’d feel like he was missing out. He didn’t know before, but now that he did, he naturally had to secure them.
