Chapter 989: Dividing the Spoils

Everyone present looked a bit grim.

So far, everyone's used anti-magic potion has been green, capable of neutralizing only 5% of the demonic qi suppression effect.

Although facing this 15% suppression effect hasn't failed yet, green-quality anti-magic potion can resist demonic qi suppression effects below 30% without failing.

After neutralizing 5%, there remains a 10% suppression effect, so everyone's strength is effectively reduced by one-tenth.

Su Sheng also had a headache; the anti-magic potion, others couldn't brew it, all relied on Chen Jianping, but he alone ultimately had limited speed.

Furthermore, materials are also limited, because Chen Jianping's alchemy method is truly bizarre, leading to a high failure rate, and the raw materials for the anti-magic potion also need to be gathered from the Demon Realm.

Upon thinking this through, Su Sheng suddenly thought of something and glanced at Shen Wang beside him.

Earlier I was still thinking about the price of the anti-magic potion; now, with this estimate, it might be better to simply exchange the raw materials.

Estimating Chen Jianping's success rate, five portions of raw materials for one bottle isn't too bad; otherwise, add a bit more—eight portions for one bottle.

Anyway, our side sends people to gather, but we definitely can't send too many, so the gathered quantity will be relatively small.

But the Universe's manpower is definitely greater than ours; Flame Yellow can only be considered a rising star, yet the Universe has been the elder brother for the past ten years.

With that calculation, we happily decided on exchanging eight portions of raw materials for one bottle of green...

The green anti-magic potion currently produced happens to still have a surplus.

But blue is not that plentiful, and purple… is even scarcer, to the point that it can practically be considered strategic material for Flame Yellow.

In this situation, directly using purple anti-magic potion can completely neutralize this fifteen percent demonic qi suppression effect.

However, purple anti-magic potion cannot be wasted here at present.

But let's see what monster the next wave brings…

After checking some game time, there are still about four hours and twenty minutes left; this boss was dealt with in just over forty minutes total.

At this moment, everyone's gaze turned to the loot dropped by the boss.

Although the boss's final 10% of health counts as self‑destruction, the loot still fell: one orange item, several purple, one blue, and one green.

An orange item actually appeared. I don't know if it's equipment or a consumable… but an Elite Boss is likely to drop a consumable or material, though for Demon Race units there could be exceptions.

Su Sheng looked up at Shen Wang; Shen Wang made no move, but gestured to Su Sheng, clearly indicating he should pick up the loot.

After all, this is Flame Yellow's mission; I merely came to tag along, so Shen Wang naturally felt embarrassed to take the loot himself.

But he believes Mo Wen Qianchen is a person who does things; this time, the Universe's folks also contributed to taking down the boss, so they'll surely get a share of the loot.

Su Sheng picked up all the loot,

Immediately afterward, Su Sheng glanced at the loot, his heart leapt, yet his eyes flashed with disappointment.

Because… what met his eyes was.

Great Dao Fragment (orange)

Components: 15

Description: None

At long last, it has appeared!

I currently have equipped 14, and I also have on hand 18, 20, and 44.

What I'm missing are 15, 16, 17, and 19.

I can directly combine this fragment into 20.

However, considering the level, whether to combine directly is a problem, even…

Now, my combination of 14 fragments is already level 75; should I add this 15? I feel it's safer to wait until level 70 to decide.

If I were to combine it, the equipment level would rise to 80, and I wouldn't be able to wear it.

I'm currently level 69, but almost 70; I've been grinding experience for days, plus this Demon Race encounter. Oh right, the experience gain is quite generous.

I also looked at my other gear, then paid attention to Shen Wang, who was looking ahead eagerly.

Su Sheng smiled and directly announced the attributes of all his equipment.

"This boss, you Universe folks also contributed a lot, so we'll take this purple item and the gold coins, and give you the remaining purple, green, and blue gear."

"It's not that I'm being overly generous; mainly, this fragment just happens to be exactly what I need. Besides, the Universe side doesn't know about it—so far, among outsiders, only Yun Duo seems aware that Su Sheng needs this."

Those level‑75 purple and blue gear have decent stats, but I can't use them for now; fighting Divine Craftsman Stone would be a loss, and Heavenly Craft Stone requires level 70 to use, so giving them to the Universe is fine.

As for the other Flame Yellow members, Su Sheng will naturally not be stingy; he will certainly give them sufficient guild contribution points as rewards.

The guild warehouse, after Su Sheng's long cultivation, contains plenty of good stuff; they can exchange points for it, so naturally they won't lose out.

"No problem, but you're just taking an orange item of unknown use—won't you be at a loss? How about you also take a purple piece?"

I didn't expect Su Sheng to be this generous; Shen Wang felt a bit embarrassed as he spoke.

"Even a small matter shouldn't let the Universe brothers work for nothing." Su Sheng laughed, waved his hand, and said indifferently.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony." Shen Wang then stopped declining, since at most it's just a few level‑75 purple items—whether valuable or not, it's still some gain.

Afterward, the loot was thus divided.

However, when trading loot with Shen Wang, Su Sheng passed over some purple anti‑magic potion and two sets of blue anti‑magic potion.

Shen Wang raised his head in surprise and looked at Su Sheng.

He truly didn't know that the anti‑magic potion came in blue and purple qualities; he thought they were all green.

"This…"

Shen Wang exclaimed in surprise.

Su Sheng smiled and said, "Normally we don't use it; we give it to elites. If we fight a boss, we use it as an emergency measure."

Its yield isn't high; using it on ordinary monsters would indeed be wasteful. Now we have green magic resistance potion that neutralizes 5%, so the attribute suppression is only about 10%.

Although the suppression is about 10%, dealing with ordinary Demon Race minions should still be fine.

Shen Wang gave Su Sheng a deep look, then nodded and accepted everything.

This transaction, speaking bluntly, under certain special circumstances, the value these potions can exert is higher than that of these level‑75 equipment.

Immediately afterward, everyone again looked toward the depths of the black mist, not knowing what kind of monster would appear next.

And the Demon Race side also seemed to know that the players had finished dividing the loot, a huge black shadow slowly emerged from the depths of the black mist…
