The Drop

"This bead is my quest item, so I'll take it without hesitation!" Wang Qianduo said as he put away the Azure Sea Orb.

Azure Sea Orb (The Only Legendary):

???

Note: This magical Orb contains the energy of the ocean; equipping it on a water-attribute Mecha will greatly enhance its skill power.

Contrary to what Old Huang had told him, this bead was not a simple ornament, but a special item that seemed to be very precious.

Even so, Wang Qianduo never considered swallowing it.

Firstly, this thing doesn't seem to work for him, and secondly, he doesn't know how to use it.

Moreover, it seems that this thing is definitely not as important as Old Huang's goodwill. After Wang Qianduo put away the Orb, everyone looked at the huge treasure chest.

Then, the Bad Luck automatically took a step back; opening boxes was something that would never concern them.

Although Old Ma was also struggling internally with the desire to prove himself, he quickly suppressed this thought.

This is a loot dropped by a Lord, three Chief, and 300 elites.

If he were to get involved in this, he'd be beaten to death.

In the end, Lin Qimeng stepped forward and opened the treasure chest. Although Old Wang had an equipment that increased Lucky, data is sometimes unreliable.

Even though he had more than 10 more points of Lucky than others, he still couldn't escape the ranks of the Bad Luck.

Lin Qimeng didn't hesitate; she immediately opened the treasure chest, and after a burst of light, dozens of items appeared before everyone.

Most of these items were materials, and Lin Qimeng kept them all.

Several items have attracted considerable attention: [Evolution Instructions for Razor-Toothed Shark], [Evolution Instructions for Imperial Bastion], [Evolution Instructions for Spark of Light], [Serrated Blade] (Perfect), and [Deep Sea Maul] (Perfect).

Three Rare Mecha Evolution paths and two level 10 Perfect weapons; note that these are finished weapons, not blueprints.

The reason nobody wants the Shark Razor-Toothed Shark Mecha Evolution Route isn't because it's weak, but because its limitations are too great.

The main battlefields of the Mecha Era will ultimately be space and land, with environments like Wave Star being exceptions.

The Imperial Bastion, the Mecha Evolution, has been taken by the Sword of Miracles. It seems he's abandoning his sword and starting a new life.

The evolution path of Spark of Light was taken by Yu Xiaoxin. This girl loves spears, so this evolution path uses spears as weapons.

The Serrated Blade was another unpopular piece of equipment, and it was eventually given to Song in the Clouds to enhance its attributes.

He's a damage dealer, so he needs this kind of equipment.

The Deep Sea Maul was assigned to Yu Xiaoyu, and like her sister who loves spears, she loves hammer-type weapons.

In addition to these valuable items, everyone also received a boost to their skills, with Wang Qianduo acquiring a Fine-Grade skill and a Rare skill.

The Rare skill is the ice-type [Ice Spear], which is a relatively common skill.

Ice Spear

LV1

Summons Ice Spear to attack enemies, dealing ice-attribute energy damage equal to 200% of attack power, and has a 10% chance to Freeze enemies. Attacking Freeze enemies will deal 2.5 times the damage.

Release distance: 300

Casting time: Instant

MP consumed: 100

Cooldown time: 15 seconds

Damage type: Energy damage, calculated based on defense

Proficiency: 0/1000

Freeze: Immobilizes the enemy for 2 seconds.

Learning requirements: Level 10 or above Ice-attribute Intelligence- type Mecha

For Wang Qianduo, the Ice Spear skill is more of a bonus, because he has neither a lack of instant-cast skills nor a lack of ways to crit.

The two major advantages of this skill have instantly become redundant, but it's still pretty good that it can increase damage.

Anyway, it's better than nothing. Wang Qianduo underestimated the difficulty of acquiring skills in this game.

Regarding the acquisition of skills, it's been so long, and Teemo hasn't made a single move.

The Fine-Grade skill is quite interesting; it's actually a healing skill called [Light Healing].

Light Healing

LV1

After charging for 1.5 seconds, summon the Divine power of light to restore the Mana Mech's status, restoring its health by (Intelligence x 2) and having a 20% chance to cleanse one negative status effect.

Release distance: 300

Casting time: 1.5 seconds (instant)

MP consumed: 50

Cooldown time: 10 seconds

Proficiency: 0/1000

Learning requirements: Level 10 or above Light Element, Intelligence -type Support class, Mecha.

Healing skills have always been the rarest skills in this game. Currently, the only Mecha with healing abilities is the regular evolved form of the Intelligence- type Mecha, [Shaman].

However, apart from its healing ability, the Shaman Mecha's other abilities are really poor.

This has resulted in very few people playing this evolved form, except for a few large guilds.

Another issue is that among the skills Player acquire, there are very few healing-type skills.

Therefore, there is a severe shortage of healers in the game, and Wang Qianduo's group doesn't have a single healer at all.

It would actually be better if Sister Hua could learn this skill, since she is the core support of the team.

Unfortunately, it's a fire-attribute Mecha, not a Light Element Mecha, so it can't use this skill. Therefore, the skill can only fall to Old Wang.

At first, Old Wang felt that he probably wouldn't be able to learn this skill, because it was clearly stated that Support Mech was required to learn it.

But the Lord of the Elements is just that domineering; as long as your skills have elemental attributes, he completely disregards your other requirements.

With this skill, he becomes a Mecha that can tank, deal damage, and heal.

After the items were distributed, Wang Qianduo and his group looked at the vast sea with some confusion.

They have no boat now, how are they going to get back?

"How about I go back and find a boat? You guys wait here for me?" Old Wang said gloatingly.

He wasn't worried, because he could easily fly back!

"Look at your smug face!" Lin Qimeng said. Because of the Holographic Projection during the chat, everyone could see Old Wang's little expressions.

"Haha, you guys can't last long and you're blaming me?!"

"Get lost! Go find a boat, stop telling dirty jokes!" Lin Qimeng.

"Look! He's panicking! He's panicking!" Wang Qianduo exclaimed.

"If you keep dawdling, I'll bite you!"

(‵□′)

While everyone was chatting and joking, a huge wave surged toward the platform from the sea.

Upon closer inspection, everyone realized it was the very ship that had just abandoned them!

"Gentlemen, it seems you've resolved this problem? Get on the boat, I'll take you back!" the boat announced to the crowd after it came to a smooth stop beside the platform.

"Who exactly are you...?" Wang Qianduo and the others asked after boarding the ship, but as soon as he finished speaking, the familiar catapult launch began again.

On the way back, he still recounted the whole story to everyone.

The captain of the ship is a captain in the Wave Star Fleet. They received a message from General Huang to help Wang Qianduo destroy the Black Shark Pirates.

But to their surprise, Wang Qianduo and the others didn't go to them when they arrived; instead, they went to find Ping Shen Saike.

They've been watching Saike for a long time and know he has intricate connections with the Black Shark Pirates.

So he could only disguise it as a rented boat, explaining that he had abandoned Wang Qianduo and the others to escape alone because he was afraid of being a burden to them.

Having understood the cause and effect, everyone turned their attention to Wang Qianduo.

"Why are you looking at me! I didn't know I could ask the local authorities for help! When I did missions on my own before, I just flew there!"

Feeling a little guilty under everyone's gaze, Wang Qianduo looked around and explained.

After hearing his explanation, everyone rolled their eyes at him. This guy really is a Versailles master; he can even find an opportunity to show off.

After returning to the base, the group said goodbye to the captain pilot of the super-speed ship and went back to their Homeworld Base to report the mission to Old Huang.

"Very good, excellent! This is your reward!"

This time, Lin Qimeng and her team finally got to see Old Huang after completing the mission; it was such a rare opportunity.

Meanwhile, the five new members who joined their team also started Merit and were directly promoted to Sergeant First Class.

"You can go back now, come with me!" After distributing the rewards to everyone, Old Huang led Wang Qianduo away again.

"Where's what I asked for?" Old Huang led Wang Qianduo to a secluded spot, carefully looked around, and whispered to him.

Wang Qianduo: "..."

What's with that guilty look on your face? Why do I have this feeling that this isn't a legitimate business transaction?

"Here it is!" Although Wang Qianduo had a lot of complaints he didn't know where to start, he still gave the Orb to Old Huang.

"Sigh~ It really is the Azure Sea Orb, not the Sea Soul Orb!" Old Huang took the Orb, looked at it, and shook his head in disappointment.

"This is a reward for you!"

After saying that, he tossed the Orb to Wang Qianduo and left in disappointment.
