Chapter 107: Forging, Starlight Equipment! (April 1300 Monthly Ticket Bonus)

Knowing why he couldn't find rare resources like the Azure Echoing Conch before, Qin Chuan naturally had a plan to find one.

First, he needed to determine a safe distance.

That is, the distance he could acquire within 30 minutes after locking onto the Azure Echoing Conch's new position.

Based on the known traits of rare resources, if the Azure Echoing Conch is not stored in the equipment slot, even if obtained it will continue to shift. Therefore Qin Chuan must either reach the corresponding location himself within 30 minutes, or have his Contract Spirit Beast bring the rare resource back within 30 minutes.

Although the latter requires the spirit beast to make a round trip, its speed is still faster than the former.

Among his and Yue Li's four spirit beasts, the fastest is Xiao Qing.

But Xiao Qing has no contract with him, so they cannot communicate mind-to-mind, and even at the designated spot he cannot find the rare resource with self-retention.

So only Shui Hua can be sent out.

Now Shui Hua, using Water Point Walk at full speed, runs at about 40 meters per second.

Calculating a round trip, theoretically it can bring back rare resources from 36 kilometers away within 30 minutes.

Considering possible unexpected factors, the safe distance was finally set at 30 kilometers.

The first method is to use the Sundial Hand Third Day Talent to lock onto the Azure Echoing Conch, timing it just before it shifts, and have Yue Li bless him with luck.

This way, the Azure Echoing Conch's next shift will likely be to a position relatively close to him; as long as the distance is under 30 kilometers, he can steadily obtain it.

The second method is to not use the Sundial Hand Third Day Talent, but after increasing luck, delay until the last moment to use the Sundial Hand Second Day Talent.

This creates a ten-minute window; the Azure Echoing Conch shifts once every thirty minutes, with a one-third chance of shifting during the window, thus appearing in the exploration results of the Sundial Hand Second Day Talent.

Of course, this method's feasibility presupposes that luck can cause the Azure Echoing Conch to refresh within ten kilometers; otherwise, if it exceeds that range, the Sundial Hand Second Day Talent cannot detect it at all.

Thinking this through, Qin Chuan had a plan.

First find the next exploration point, then time the Azure Echoing Conch's shift, have Yue Li bless him with luck, complete crafting Starlight Equipment and use the Second Day Talent to explore resources during the lucky ten minutes, then after the Azure Echoing Conch's new coordinates appear, send Shui Hua to collect them.

Calmly, three steps.

After reviewing once more and confirming his idea was sound, Qin Chuan casually tossed the Fine Equipment Forging Stone back into the equipment slot, saying, "Let's head to the next exploration point."

"Okay."

Yue Li caught up to Qin Chuan, smiling as she said, "The success rate for Fine Equipment Forging Stone isn't high, right?"

"Only 30%." Qin Chuan spread his hands.

"Not bad." Yue Li nodded slightly, "The success rate for Ordinary Equipment Forging Stone is even lower; using nine pieces of the same-side heavy-direction Starlight Equipment materials gives only a 10% success rate."

"I recall the Special Affairs Group previously released that information." Qin Chuan thought, "If using Ultimate Equipment Forging Stone, under the same conditions the success rate can reach 90%."

"So you get what you pay for." Yue Li smiled narrowly.

"So luck means saving money." Qin Chuan's expression was serious.

The two exchanged a smile.

Not long after, the next exploration point arrived.

Qin Chuan kept his eyes on the Azure Echoing Conch; 25 minutes had passed since its last shift, and now increasing luck would take effect exactly during the shift period.

Then, let's see if his guess holds true.

Qin Chuan nodded at Yue Li, and understanding, Yue Li quickly cast Lucky Blessing.

After receiving luck, Qin Chuan took out the Fine Equipment Forging Stone and filled the groove again.

This time, facing the same confirmation screen, he directly pressed 【Yes】.

What 30%?

Before the Fate, you must make it 100% for me!

In the next instant, the Fine Equipment Forging Stone vanished, and before Qin Chuan appeared an illusory massive forging hammer, which heavily struck the nine materials on the crafting interface.

"Clang—"

Accompanied by a loud boom, the nine Starlight Equipment materials instantly turned into specks of light filling the sky; they gathered together, spun rapidly and merged, and after a few moments burst forth in a flash of light.

【Congratulations, player successfully crafted Starlight Equipment: Flowing Water Crown, obtained equipment attribute: Cang Expanse (Starlight 9)】

【Cang Expanse (Starlight 9): Attribute Control Increase 84%】Gazing at the light fading, a crown wholly constructed of flowing water, its form constantly shifting, Qin Chuan's face showed an excited expression.

Success! Having completed the crafting of Starlight Equipment, the path of Elite Tier is half done.

He unhesitatingly embedded the newly obtained Flowing Water Crown into the evolution page; the next moment a prompt appeared before his eyes.

【Please first complete the inlay of the Advanced Formation.】

It seems evolution cannot be done alone.

Qin Chuan turned his gaze back to the Azure Echoing Conch.

At this moment, the Azure Echoing Conch has three minutes until its shift.

"My Starlight Equipment crafting succeeded." Seizing the idle waiting time, Qin Chuan noticed Yue Li beside him looking expectant, and smiled, saying, "The attribute effect is an 84% increase in Attribute Control."

"So high!" Yue Li exclaimed, "Can it evolve?"

"Not yet." Qin Chuan shook his head, "Only after the Advanced Formation is inlaid can the evolution page accommodate Starlight Equipment; they are inseparable."

"So we still need to find that medium-grade rare resource." Yue Li propped her cheeks, the soft flesh on her face squishing together, adorable enough to make one want to take a bite, "Even my luck plus your talent can't find it; advancing to Elite Tier is too hard!"

"When the car reaches the mountain, there will be a way; rest assured." Qin Chuan said, though his gaze unconsciously fell on Yue Li's cheek.

The soft light fell, and their distance was so close that Qin Chuan could clearly see the fine fuzz on Yue Li's cheek.

Perhaps the joy of successfully crafting the Starlight Equipment loosened a tense string in his heart a bit; only when his outstretched finger touched Yue Li's cheek did Qin Chuan suddenly realize something was off, and he embarrassedly withdrew his hand, "Um…"

Yue Li's pretty face flushed red, she glared at Qin Chuan with a cute fury, turned her gaze elsewhere, yet toward Qin Chuan's ear a faint pink hue gradually spread.

The charming yet awkward atmosphere left Qin Chuan unsure what to say, after all that gesture was truly subconscious.

But the next moment, the Azure Echoing Conch's shift occurred, instantly drawing Qin Chuan's attention away.

Watching the Azure Echoing Conch's new position, he widened his eyes in delight.

Twenty kilometers!

The Azure Echoing Conch is only twenty kilometers from his current position!

"Shui Hua! Charge!" Qin Chuan shouted, pointing far toward the Azure Echo Snail's direction, "Full speed charge, the Azure Echo Snail is right there!"

"Woof!"

Shui Hua barked, and a blue-green light halo spread over its four paws, instantly turning into an afterimage that shot out.

"Did you find the Azure Echo Snail?" Yue Li sprang to their feet, not minding the earlier embarrassment, "Do you need Xiao Qing's help?"

Xiao Qing couldn't find it following my instructions.

Qin Chuan shook their head, appearing full of confidence.

"Don't worry, this time it won't escape!"
