Taking Stock of the Spoils

Luo Jun looked at the soft, sexy lace lingerie in his hand, his expression somewhat speechless.

He thought he'd pull out some powerful and Legendary Treasure Item, but instead he just pulled off her underwear... Seriously, she wasn't even wearing a defensive treasure? Putting aside the fact that the situation was urgent, even if he had time to loot the corpse, Luo Jun would only have taken weapons and accessories; he wouldn't have stripped the woman naked and taken her underwear...

But since she wasn't wearing it, then Luo Jun got a good deal. Judging from the special effects, this is a fairly powerful piece of armor, and judging from the "(top)" in the name, it should be a set, and there should also be a "(bottom)," meaning the underwear matches it.

Could it be that the (bottom) was worn by that blonde woman?

We can't exactly go back and pull down someone's pants now...

Luo Jun shook his head.

Probably not. If she really had a set, she wouldn't just wear one piece and put the other away. It's more likely that she has another Noble Phantasm that's also underwear, taking up space.

While theoretically, one can wear countless Noble Phantasms on their person as long as they can carry them, in reality, wearing multiple Noble Phantasms of the same type in the same location will not always have an effect.

This has been verified by many people, and Luo Jun himself has also conducted experiments. For example, with rings, you can only wear one on each finger at most; any extras have no effect. You can only wear one necklace, one bracelet on each hand, and naturally, you can only wear one set of underwear... These are all fine, but what Luo Jun finds most unreasonable is actually clothing.

In reality, when the weather is cold, it's normal to wear five or six layers of clothing, such as underwear, shirts, thermal underwear, sweaters, and coats. However, in this magical artifact, besides underwear, you can only wear a maximum of three layers at a time: a coat, an inner layer, and a pair of pants... Goodness, this is truly the Cultivators, impervious to heat and cold, always dressed like this...

In short, if that woman had a better quality lingerie, then it would be normal for this one to be relegated to the sidelines. But... judging by her strength, that woman was instantly defeated by him, and she doesn't seem like an important figure from the Hell Creek Family. How could she possibly possess two legendary pieces?

Maybe she's not a legend, perhaps she has a set of...

Never mind, whatever it is, it's definitely in Zheng Yuanqiang's hands now.

Furthermore, it's now confirmed that the Mythic Treasure Item is indeed not in the Hundred Treasure Box of these three people. It seems the Hell Creek Family does indeed have insurance for such treasures, so they can be retrieved immediately even if the bearer dies.

But that doesn't matter. As a Peak Elder, he must have a lot of good things on him. Luo Jun picked up the pocket watch and activated the Dice of Heavenly Secrets on it.

The two pairs of dice stopped spinning; one pair showed 22, and the other showed 33...

Ha! These two numbers are pretty even, but this roll won't work... In order not to waste the Lockpick, he had no choice but Regret reroll.

This time, with a pair of 36 points and a pair of 80 points, Luo Jun activated the Intermediate Point Correction.

"Ding! Event Difficulty: 86 points; Final Points: 80 + 15 points; Event Success!"

It's finally done! Luo Jun immediately used the Lockpick, and after it was used up, the Hundred Treasure Box flashed, and he took out a huge Sniper Rifle from it.

Good heavens, this gun is two heads taller than Luo Jun when it stands up, making the floor creak. The barrel is so thick and long that it can't be held in one hand, and the Black Hole muzzle can almost fit two fingers... With such exaggerated size, it's more like a handheld cannon than a gun!

Name: Thunderclap

Grade: Legendary

Introduction: A mysterious organization developed a special Sniper Rifle specifically to combat super-sized monsters. Not only were its size and materials perfected, but it also incorporated supernatural power crystals, creating an unprecedented ultimate weapon. Unfortunately, after its creation, none of the organization's warriors could wield it skillfully, and it remained sealed away in the armory.

Function 1: Special Weapon: Due to the extensive use of rare materials and the incorporation of supernatural powers during its manufacture, this rifle possesses strength and durability far exceeding that of conventional materials, and can slowly self-repair after being damaged. The ammunition it carries uses a special high-efficiency propellant that provides enormous kinetic energy. The only drawback is that this weapon is extremely heavy, and the recoil upon firing is too great, exceeding the Limit what most people can withstand.

Function 2: Reloading: When the bullets are empty, manually pulling the bolt will reload the gun.

Function Three: Sniper Shot. When activated, it can fire a powerful shot. The bullet will be fired at ten times the normal initial velocity, ignoring air resistance and gravity, and will hit the target with a stable trajectory. At the same time, the recoil will also be greatly increased.

Activation consumes 100 breaths of energy, with a 1-minute cooldown.

Note: Aim, fire, mission complete.

Well, the special effects can only be described as simple, crude, and unpretentious.

As a firearm-type Noble Phantasm, besides the almost standard reload function, it only has one active skill, and there are no fancy effects, it just simply increases power. This configuration can only be described as meager.

But such a configuration appearing on a legendary firearm means that this gun, in terms of power alone, is comparable to those weapons with divine artifact skills!

Putting everything else aside, the Sniper Shot function didn't mention destructive power; what it did increase after activation was muzzle velocity, which surprised Luo Jun.

Because normally, Powerful Shot skills like this can be considered a critical hit with several times the normal force. But this is different. Ten times the speed, according to the kinetic energy formula, the bullet contains a hundred times the normal energy! Coupled with the effect of ignoring drag and gravity, the power of this shot is unimaginable. This can also be seen from the terrifying consumption of one hundred breaths!

It's a pity that it's not convenient to test it in the Main World. I'll have to try it out in a mission when I get the chance!

After putting away the spear, Luo Jun glanced at the pocket watch. Based on the difficulty level, he estimated that there should be two or three more legendary items inside, but Luo Jun's dice were gone.

The Hundred Treasure Box summoned by the Lockpick can only last for one hour, and now there's less than half an hour left. It definitely won't last until the dice refresh... Luo Jun looked at his chips.

The Top-Up skill allows you to spend chips to get more dice rolls, but each roll costs three times as many chips as the previous one, with the first roll costing only 100 chips.

Luo Jun decisively redeemed one more use and used Lockpick on Elder Maple's Hundred Treasure Box again.

"Ding! Event Difficulty: 90 points; Final Points: 99 + 5 points; Event Success!"

The difficulty has increased... but thankfully the dice are quite favorable!

This time, what was drawn was a familiar treasure. "Fusion Evolution Component?"

Luo Jun fiddled with the treasure in his hand; it was the same treasure he had taken from the Mountain Shaking Ghost's Hundred Treasure Box!

"Are there duplicates of this Legendary Treasure Item?" Luo Jun took out both of them, compared their appearance and special effects, and confirmed that they were the same.

This is understandable, though. According to the description, this thing was originally a byproduct of research into creating Mythic Treasure Item, so naturally there couldn't be only one. In addition, as a consumable item, it would normally respawn after being used, so the circulation of this Fusion Evolution Component in the legendary realm should be quite high.

"Ding, Event Success. Basic Experience Points: 90, Severity Coefficient: 5x, Final Experience Value: 450!"

Congratulations! You've leveled up!

That night, with auctions and lock-picking, although there weren't any thrilling battles, the rewards from each judgment were quite good, resulting in Severity Coefficient. Coupled with the difficulty levels often reaching 80 or 90, the experience points increased rapidly.

Seeing that the dice roll count had been reset after the upgrade, Luo Jun picked up another Lockpick, intending to continue opening legendary locks.

But before he could summon the dice, the pocket watch in front of him suddenly flickered a few times and disappeared.

"What's going on?" Luo Jun instinctively reached out to grab something, but grabbed nothing.

At the same time, a ring beside it, the blonde woman's Hundred Treasure Box, also disappeared. Only the tall man's Hundred Treasure Box remained, lying there all alone.

The error-free version can be read at 69 Book Bar! 6=9+shuba is the first site to publish this novel.

"What's going on?" Luo Jun frowned, glancing at his watch. "It's not time yet."

Ailongtan blinked and said, "Master, do you think it's possible that... the owners of these two Hundred Treasure Box have been resurrected?"

When Cultivators dies, their Hundred Treasure Box disappears, but if they are resurrected, it will reappear with all its Hundred Treasure Box intact. Luo Jun used Lockpick to retrieve their Hundred Treasure Box from the void, so if they are resurrected, they will definitely be forced to recall their Hundred Treasure Box...

"People who died in the Main World can be resurrected?" Luo Jun narrowed his eyes. "The methods of the Hell Creek Family are not simple."

Regardless, acquiring three legendary items was a huge profit. Luo Jun touched the Hundred Treasure Box and took out all the spoils from the black market the previous night. Looking at the golden and purple treasures scattered on the ground, he sighed that accumulating wealth through murder and robbery was much faster than painstakingly completing quests.

"There are two fusion components..." Luo Jun fiddled with his newly acquired treasure. "Why don't we use one first and test its effect?"

With that in mind, he picked up the fusion component and began scanning all the Legendary Treasure Item on the ground and in the Hundred Treasure Box. The final result showed that there were four pairs of these Legendary Treasure Item that could be fused: Violence and Thunderclap, the Essence Stabilizing Pearl and the Soul-Seizing Bottle, the Ancestral Skeleton Headband and the Chaos Card, and the Elemental Construct Box and the Chaos Card.

The first two pairs are fine; both Violence and Thunderclap are firearms, and although they are different types, their functions are very similar. They both emphasize simplicity and brutality, focusing on shooting, so it's not surprising that they can be combined. As for the Essence Stabilizing Pearl and the Soul-Seizing Bottle, although they don't look alike, their functions are highly compatible.

The last two pairs were somewhat unexpected for Luo Jun. The Chaos Card could be fused with the Skeleton Ring and the Elemental Construct Box respectively, but the Skeleton Ring and the Elemental Construct Box could not be fused.

After a brief moment of thought, Luo Jun concluded that the Chaos Card and the Skeleton Ring had in common the powerful summoning abilities, and that the Elemental Construct Box was also a set of board games created by the Deity. However, their compatibility was completely different, so without a middle bridge, the headband and the Construct Box naturally had no chance of fusion.

It seems there's quite a bit to explore regarding this fusion feature.

Luo Jun held the Fusion Evolution Component in his hand, and after careful consideration, finally chose the Essence Stabilizing Pearl and the Soul-Seizing Bottle!

As he acquired more and more powerful magical artifacts and more and more diverse methods, Luo Jun felt more and more that his own strength was the most important thing.

For an ordinary Foundation Establishment Realm, obtaining a Legendary Treasure Item, as long as they can bear the cost of using it, can grant them immense power to turn the tide of battle. However, for those at the Peak or even the Feather Transformation, a Legendary Treasure Item is merely icing on the cake.

Luo Jun Legendary Treasure Item, but they are mainly functional. There are basically none that can truly bring about a qualitative improvement in his strength. Even the two-thousand-ton Myriad Jun Hammer offers very limited improvement for Luo Jun at his current level; it is mostly used as a flying tool.

During this time, Luo Jun defeated Long Hui, killed Madam Gao, intercepted Elder Maple, and defeated the Saint's Remains... Luo Jun could feel that his strength had far surpassed that of ordinary Peak. Although he did not have any special abilities, his powerful Root Bone and the super-strong attributes brought by his God Technique were enough to overcome any opponent with sheer force.

However, his skill level is still too low... He can suppress opponents far weaker than himself with brute force, but what about opponents of the same or even higher level?

A single, effective trick can indeed make you successful in any situation, but if that trick stops working, then your career has come to an end.

Luo Jun needs to improve his cultivation level. He doesn't know if he can reach the Mind Condensation or what kind of power he will gain. But at least, he has to move forward first.

Even though he was filled with anxiety, even though the final outcome might be hopeless, he had no choice but to keep going!

Instead of suffering in uncertainty and anxiety, it's better to quickly elevate your level and confirm your direction!

With unwavering conviction, Luo Jun activated the Fusion Evolution Component. As the light shone, the Essence Stabilizing Pearl and the Soul-Seizing Bottle began to fuse before him, ultimately transforming into a small square cauldron.
