Items on Floor 644
[Ruin-Sealing Black Armor (1/1): Consumes 800 Points, a defense-boosting item. Reduces damage taken by the entire team by 25% and reduces damage from monsters by 25% during this battle. Suitable for all floor raids.]
[Mirror Fiendbreaker Orb (1/1): Consumes 800 Points. Battle damage boosting item. Increases the entire team's damage by 30% for this battle. Adds an additional 20% armor penetration effect against mirrored beasts and elite monsters. Suitable for all floors.]
[Ruin Lord Shadow-Fear (1/1): Consumes 800 Points, weakens the BOSS, effective against the ultimate boss beast, reduces all attributes of the BOSS in the next stage by 15%.]
"What is all this? I don't quite understand it."
Xiao Fan frowned as he looked at the items on the second tier of the Points Mall.
Unlike the items on the first floor, the items on the second floor...
Well, the function is described quite clearly, but Xiao Fan doesn't quite understand many of the meanings.
"Isn't this Solo Instance? What does 'team-wide damage reduction' and 'team-wide damage increase' mean?"
"And what are mirror image beasts, elite monsters, ultimate boss beasts, and BOSS forms?"
Xiao Fan continued reading, looking completely bewildered.
[Delusion-Breaking Mirror Dust (1/1): Consumes 5000 Points. Trap immunity item. After use, all Trap Room on the current floor will have no negative effects. Entering Trap Room guarantees a high-level treasure reward. Zero-risk, high-return gamble.]
[The Ruin-Sealing Mystic Talisman (1/1): Consumes 5000 Points. A backlash suppression item. After use, the backlash effect of the mirror image in this layer is reduced by 50%.]
[The Hidden-Realm Jade Tablet (1/1): Consumes 5000 Points. Guaranteed to appear in hidden rooms. After use, the next branch room will definitely refresh the hidden room, reliably obtaining rare treasures.]
Seeing this, Xiao Fan finally realized that the secret realm of the <Treasure Map> was not as simple as he had previously imagined.
"It seems the second half of the secret realm isn't just about fighting monsters and solving puzzles."
The traps, items, and rooms described in the item list indicate that this is a completely different mode from the previous ones.
"The items on the second tier of the Points Mall are closely related to the upcoming dungeons."
With this guess in mind, Xiao Fan didn't bother to check the secret realm's timer.
First, she needs to look through all the items on the Points redemption page to make sure she can find solutions in time if she encounters difficulties during her upcoming adventure in the secret realm.
[Radiance-Defying Token (1/1): Consumes 5000 Points. An environmental anomaly mitigation item that temporarily negates the negative effects of the current weekly global environmental anomaly, lasting for the entire level.]
[Treasure-Gathering Ancient Mirror (1/1): Consumes 2000 Points. A consumable item that can upgrade any one ordinary item to a higher quality upon use.]
These items are directly related to whether he can successfully pass through this secret realm, so Xiao Fan dared not relax for a moment. His eyes were fixed on the Points page of the mall, and he looked at it very carefully.
With the help of the annotations on the uses of each item, Xiao Fan gradually gained a clearer understanding of the subsequent challenge mode in the secret realm.
As he browsed through the pages, he silently reviewed the events in his mind, combining his experience accumulated from countless battles to deduce the crises and variables he might encounter in the future.
As he browsed, he quickly realized that the Points items in the store were not all the same, but had a strict and clear level division.
The grading criteria are: first, the color and luster of the item's own glow; and second, the amount of Secret Realm Points required to exchange for it.
White items require the fewest Points and are the most basic type.
Moving upwards, the colors are green, blue, purple, and gold, with each level increasing in quality. The required Secret Realm Points also increase accordingly, and the effects and powers of the items become exponentially stronger.
Following the gold-grade items are the extremely rare red-grade items; just by reading their descriptions, one can sense the terrifying power they contain.
Xiao Fan flipped through the pages, his gaze sweeping over the dazzling array of items. He could almost feel the faint light emanating from the virtual panel at his fingertips, and in the blink of an eye, he reached the last page of the second-floor Points Mall.
When this page appeared before his eyes, Xiao Fan's pupils contracted slightly.
The three items at the bottom of the page are surrounded by a dazzling array of colors. The light flows and surges, and a magnificent halo emanates from the items themselves, shining brightly and dazzlingly, completely different from the white, green, blue, purple, gold, and red lights of the other items.
"If nothing unexpected happens, these three items should be the three highest-level items in the second-tier Points item shop."
Thinking of this, Xiao Fan looked at the last three colorful props and began to check their information.
[Mirror-Dew Nectar (1/1): Consumes 25,000 Points. Can bind a Puppet teammate. When the Puppet teammate falls, the miraculous effect of the nectar will be triggered instantly, restoring them to full health. Upon resurrection, they unleash a burst of power, blasting surrounding enemies with the Puppet's maximum ultimate skill damage.]
[Origin-Returning Mirror Core (1/1): Consumes 25,000 Points to immediately revive all downed Puppet.]
[Ruin-Realm Power (1/1): Consumes 25,000 Points; all Puppet gain a 300% boost.]
"Puppet!"
Xiao Fan murmured to himself, his gaze fixed on the three seven-colored treasures on the panel, his heart filled with considerable turmoil.
The effects of these three rainbow-colored items far surpass those of the white, green, blue, purple, gold, and red grades; each of their abilities is extremely powerful.
After carefully reading the annotations on the three items, the doubts that had lingered in Xiao Fan's mind for a long time finally became clear.
"I knew it! How could Solo Instance have an effect that increases damage for the entire team?" Xiao Fan suddenly realized.
"I see. It seems that Puppet will be unlocked later in the dungeon. These Puppet will replace teammates and assist players in clearing the next dungeon."
Thinking of this, Xiao Fan's gaze fell back on the three dazzling, seven-colored props, and his expression became serious again.
"Only..."
He glanced at the exchange conditions listed below the three treasures, and his pupils narrowed slightly.
Each of the three colorful items requires 25,000 Secret Realm Points to exchange.
Xiao Fan quickly did some mental calculations.
Even if I discard all other items and don't use a single Points, keeping everything, I can only obtain two out of the three rainbow items at most.
But reality is clearly not so ideal.
Xiao Fan had no idea what dangers awaited him in the secret realm.
The road ahead is fraught with danger; no one can predict what powerful beasts or traps they will encounter. To advance safely, it's impossible to do anything without exchanging items.
Various life-saving and buff items should be purchased as needed to deal with unexpected dangers.
What weighed heavily on his mind was his uncertainty about whether he would be able to continue earning Secret Realm Points in future Secret Realm challenges.
If no Points are generated in subsequent areas, then his current accumulated points will be his entire fortune.
By then, I'm afraid I'll only be able to exchange it for one seven-colored treasure at most.
Xiao Fan composed himself, his expression becoming increasingly cautious. His gaze swept back and forth between the three colorful props before finally shaking his head.
"We'll see about exchanging items later. Right now, I want to know what kind of mode the next part of the secret realm will be."
Xiao Fan closed the Points redemption page and looked ahead at the road.
