Zhang Yanhang took out a green treasure box from the neatly sorted pile at the very top. Follow current novels on novel⟡fire.net
"Do you wish to open the ’Drop Treasure Box (Beta-type Hunter)’?"
"Yes, open it." As Zhang Yanhang made his choice, time immediately came to a halt.
"Please select the specific contents of the ’Drop Treasure Box (Beta-type Hunter)’"
Zhang Yanhang silently clicked on the first item and began the usual process of opening the treasure box.
Option One: 10 Soul Points
Option Two: 50 Soul Points
Option Three: 100 Soul Points
"So, my choices are ’100 Soul Points,’ ’100 Soul Points,’ ’Slow Corrosion,’ ’100 Soul Points,’ ’Yellow Medicine Grass.’" After reviewing all five items, Zhang Yanhang quickly made his selections.
"Sigh, there was no blue-quality material in the treasure box of the Beta-type Hunter this time; it seems green quality material is its limit.
Actually, if you think about it, it’s reasonable. The most formidable part of the Beta-type Hunter is its right arm claw, but even that is only of green quality. So, it makes sense that you can’t obtain blue-quality material from a Beta-type Hunter.
Moreover, being able to get Yellow Medicine Grass is pretty good, especially since one can never have too much of a Life Value limit."
After failing to find blue-quality materials in the Beta-type Hunter’s treasure box and feeling a bit disappointed, Zhang Yanhang let out a sigh, yet his right hand immediately reached for a white treasure box from an ordinary zombie.
By now, opening treasure boxes had almost become a conditioned reflex for Zhang Yanhang; finish one box and immediately grab another, which saves time.
After a robotic stint of opening treasure boxes, Zhang Yanhang finally opened all 378 boxes, "I feel like I’ve truly experienced opening treasure boxes to the point of nausea this time, just opening them took me half an hour."
If he could, Zhang Yanhang actually wanted to continue the tedious process, maybe extending it to an hour, but unfortunately, that opportunity did not arise.
"I hope the number of Soul Points that came out this time will break through twenty thousand." After finishing with the boxes, Zhang Yanhang immediately checked his Soul Point balance.
Soul Points: 21320 (+16670)
Just 16670 Soul Points? Still over three thousand short of twenty thousand."
Zhang Yanhang wasn’t entirely satisfied with this outcome. However, fortunately, the sum of the Soul Points from the treasures added to those obtained from kills brought the total to over twenty thousand, precisely twenty-one thousand three hundred and twenty Soul Points.
With 21,320 soul points, one could barely call it sufficient, but this time, it was definitely impossible to casually enhance the skill level of ’Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil’ as previously envisaged. After all, just to upgrade the ’Technique Immunity Skill’ to LV.10, nearly twenty thousand soul points were needed.
After reviewing the soul point gains, Zhang Yanhang began to sort through the other gains from this treasure box. First were the gains in the Talent department. Last time, he had been just 21 ’Slow Corrosion Talents’ short of upgrading the A-grade Talent ’Longevity’ to a higher level, which was quite regrettable.
But this time, he was confident that he could gather the necessary quantity of ’Slow Corrosion Talents’. This time, he had obtained a total of 356 E-grade ’Slow Corrosion Talents’.
Before upgrading his Talent, Zhang Yanhang first checked the Talent effect of the A-grade ’Longevity’.
[Ability One: Unwearied—Constitution +4.]
[Ability Two: Energetic—Physical Strength +130%.]
[Ability Three: Longevity—Life Span +80 years.]
"To upgrade the A-grade Talent ’Longevity’ I need 243 ’Slow Corrosion Talents’. I had 222 ’Slow Corrosion Talents’ on hand before, and if I add the 356 ’Slow Corrosion Talents’ I just obtained, that makes a total of 578 ’Slow Corrosion Talents’. That should definitely be enough to upgrade ’Longevity’, and I will have plenty left over."
Zhang Yanhang carefully counted out 243 black spheres from the large pile set aside and then burst them all in one go.
[A Subordinate Talent of the ’Longevity’ A-grade Talent is detected in your Talent list. Would you like to merge the Talents?]
"Yes, merge." Zhang Yanhang calculated and figured that after the upgrading, he should still have 335 ’Slow Corrosion Talents’ left.
[You have obtained the S-grade Talent ’Chunling Endless’.]
"I’ve finally obtained an S-grade Talent. If I want to continue upgrading in the future, it will undoubtedly become very difficult." Zhang Yanhang muttered as he checked the Talent effect of the S-grade ’Chunling Endless’.
[Ability One: Unwearied—Constitution +5 (+1).]
[Ability Two: Energetic—Physical Strength +160% (+30%).]
[Ability Three: Longevity—Life Span +100 years (+20 years).]
"Incredible, it really did triple again. I need 729 ’Slow Corrosion Talents’ to continue upgrading the ’Chunling Endless’ Talent, but I only have 335 ’Slow Corrosion Talents’ in hand."
Zhang Yanhang reckoned that the shortcoming of 394 ’Slow Corrosion Talents’ would likely be impossible to collect, considering he had already cleared two-thirds of Raccoon City, and most of the ordinary zombies had been dealt with too.
Earlier, he had cleared nearly three thousand monsters to gain just 356 E-grade Talents. To obtain 394 ’Slow Corrosion Talents’, he would need to slay over three thousand more monsters. However, there probably weren’t even two thousand monsters left in Raccoon City, let alone three thousand. At most, there might be over a thousand monsters remaining, which would be considered quite good.
"Speaking of which, what level is above S-grade? EX? Probably not..." Regarding the level beyond S-grade, Zhang Yanhang felt that he would not be able to know for a short time since he couldn’t possibly collect 729 ’Slow Corrosion Talents’—the number was simply too large.
"This time, my lifespan has increased by another twenty years, and one point in Constitution. If I could have originally lived until eighty, I can now live until a hundred and eighty years old.
Moreover, after breaking through to the Second Tier, I could add another twenty years to my lifespan. By then, I might be able to live until two hundred years old. I’m not just talking about the twenty-second century, but I could probably catch a glimpse of the twenty-third century before I pass away."
Although Zhang Yanhang was still very young, just twenty years old, an increase in lifespan was always something that brought joy. Most people would definitely hope to live a little longer.
