Chapter 3061: Bloodline and Hypothesis

Su Xiao returned to his exclusive room. This time, the dark matter removed was defaulted by him to be two portions. He didn't remove three portions, not because of the King of Hair begging to let her go, but because the other party's body really couldn't bear it. If he continued, the King of Hair would die.

If the King of Hair died, although he could receive the reward, it was somewhat unjustifiable. The instruments and potion materials during the treatment were all provided by the Toad, and Su Xiao only needed to go there.

After taking a shower, Su Xiao sat cross-legged on the bed with his upper body bare. He took out the Fate Dominator and checked its attributes.

【Fate Dominator】

Origin: Reincarnation Paradise

Quality: Immortal-grade

Category: Ornament (Extremely rare)

Durability: 155/155 (increased by 35 points)

Equipment Requirement: Only Hunter himself can use.

Basic Effect: When wearing this equipment, Luck attribute +8 points.

Equipment Effect 1: Power of Luck (Core · Active), consume one Soul Crystal (Small), Fate Dominator can convert soul power into luck, temporarily increasing the holder's Luck attribute by 20 points (increased by 5 points). Effect lasts for 15 minutes.

Prompt: The cooldown time of this ability is 2 natural days.

Skill Effect 2: Extreme Luck (Passive), when opening treasure chest-type items, there is a 2% probability of obtaining super-high amplitude gains (Hunter's every 10 points of Luck attribute will additionally increase this probability by 1%).

Equipment Effect 3: Blessing of the Goddess of Luck (Passive) / Goddess Sobbing (Passive)...

Introduction: Save the luck in the midst of a storm. Occasional powerlessness is also no way.

Rating: 1500 points (Name of the strong is being blessed).

Price: Due to special reasons, this equipment cannot be sold.

The characteristics of the Fate Dominator had changed. First of all, after activating the active effect of the Fate Dominator, this equipment could increase the Luck attribute by a total of 28 points!

This was obviously not something that normal Immortal-grade equipment could do. It was likely because too many names of the strong were engraved on it, causing implicit gains to the Fate Dominator.

Not only that, the Fate Dominator also possessed a new ability: when opening treasure chest-type items, there was a 5% probability of obtaining super-high amplitude gains. Simply put, it was to improve the "flash" probability when opening treasure chests.

The initial increase was 5%. Su Xiao's every 10 points of Luck attribute increased the probability by 1%. After activating the Fate Dominator, Su Xiao's Luck attribute could reach an unprecedented 60 points, which was the regular flash rate + initial 2% + 6% from luck blessing. In this way, the flash probability when Su Xiao opened treasure chests was quite considerable.

Practice is the truth. Su Xiao took out multiple treasure chests from his storage space, totaling 【Epic-grade Treasure Chest x16】, 【Blue Quality Treasure Chest · Spider Pride】, 【Saint-grade Treasure Chest · Black Nest】, 【Special Weapon Treasure Chest】, 【Immortal-grade Treasure Chest (60%)】, and 【World-grade Treasure Chest】.

Su Xiao opened the 16 Epic-grade treasure chests first. These were all obtained in the Dream World. 16 were opened together.

【You have opened Epic-grade Treasure Chest x16.】

【You obtained Soul Crystal (Large) x42.】

【You obtained Tooth of Residual Blood (Epic-grade weapon).】

【You obtained Beast Cloak (Epic-grade armor).】

【You obtained Smelly Loincloth (No quality item).】

【You obtained Wild Boar Rush (Skill Scroll).】

【You obtained Dream Stone x8 (Epic-grade prop).】

【Dream Stone】

Origin: Dark Star · Dream World

Quality: Epic-grade

Type: Prop

Usage Effect: After use, can drag the specified target into a beautiful dream/nightmare (if multiple are used at the same time, the effect will be significantly enhanced).

Rating: 689 points (Epic-grade item rating is 530～700 points.)

Introduction: Beast race members sleep in the Dream World. Due to time stagnation, their brain tissue shows variation and stone phenomena, thereby producing these wonderful things. It is said that there is a distinction between beautiful dreams and nightmares in dreams.

Selling Price: 300,000 Paradise Coins. 【3061-40

The 【Dreamland Stone】 is not bad. If eight are used together, the effect cannot be underestimated. This thing can be kept. As for other gains, except for the Soul Crystals, sell everything else in a bundle.

Su Xiao picked up the 【Special Weapon Treasure Chest】. This was a reward from the Apocalypse Paradise side. It could open up a mining shovel of Epic to Immortal quality. He decided to try his luck. The treasure chest opened, light overflowing—it flashed!

【You have opened the Special Weapon Treasure Chest.】

【You have obtained 83-Palladium Alloy Mining Shovel.】

【83-Palladium Alloy Mining Shovel】

Origin: Apocalypse Paradise

Quality: Immortal

Category: Weapon/Mining Shovel

Durability: 263/263

Attack Power: 150–215

Equipment Requirements: Strength 75 points, Stamina 79 points, Seventh-Tier or higher technology-class item control ability.

Equipment Effect 1 (Passive): To be activated.

Equipment Effect 2 (Active): To be activated.

Equipment Effect 3 (Active): To be activated.

Equipment Effect 4 (Active): To be activated...

Equipment Effect 8 (Active): To be activated.

Rating: 1195 points (Immortal equipment rating is 1000–1500 points).

Introduction: This is a precious mining shovel. It can be used for self-defense at critical moments. Please do not be misled by its attack power; its structure is not suitable for combat, and in most cases, it serves to enrage the enemy.

Price: After activation, it will be bound to the life wavelength and cannot be sold. It can be smelted and decomposed, etc.

This was the first time Su Xiao had seen equipment used entirely for mining. The mining shovel he obtained last time was a multi-form weapon and wasn't professional.

The mining shovel had many auxiliary abilities. For Su Xiao, the biggest use of this thing was to put it on the auction platform and sell it.

After weighing it for a moment, Su Xiao consigned it to the auction platform for 9,700 Soul Coins. The rating of this mining shovel wasn't very high, but one had to consider the wealth of miners. If it were another type of Immortal equipment with this rating, it would be worth at most 2,600–3,300 Soul Coins, no more. 1,350 rating was a watershed; for Immortal equipment higher than this rating, the price would jump significantly, and after reaching full rating, it would soar by another large margin.

There were four treasure chests left. Su Xiao decided to open a Blue-quality treasure chest first.

【You have opened the Blue-quality treasure chest: Spider Pride.】

【You have obtained Wolf Spider Bloodline (Profession/Bloodline item).】

【Wolf Spider Bloodline】

Origin: Dark Star World - Wolf Spider Queen (Unique)

Potential: D+ (Can be improved)

Category: Profession/Bloodline item

Usage Prerequisites: Agility 26 points, Stamina 23 points, Willpower 15 points or higher.

Usage Effect: After use, Agility increases by 6 points, Stamina increases by 5 points, Health increases by 340 points, Mana increases by 220 points, and you initially acquire the Wolf Spider Bloodline. Agility and Stamina attributes are converted into main attributes, and you acquire the Wolf Spider Bloodline skill tree.

Hint: After killing a strong enemy, you can absorb its life essence to obtain profession-exclusive skill points and improve the profession skills within the Wolf Spider Bloodline skill tree.

Item Rating: 70+++ (Blue-quality item rating is 30–70 points)

Introduction: The originally powerful Wolf Spider Queen had her bloodline power significantly reduced due to long-term erosion by Ancient God energy. Even so, the potential within this bloodline has not been erased and will gradually recover as the master becomes stronger.

The 【Wolf Spider Bloodline】 is not strong at the current stage, but it has potential and a low threshold. A First-Tier contractor can master this ability and develop this bloodline to the Eighth Tier without any worries along the way.

Compared to Su Xiao and the Feather God, the Wolf Spider Queen might not seem like much, but she was still in the upper echelon of the Eighth Tier. Could her bloodline potential be weak?

This is a bloodline that is unsolvable in the early stage, invincible in the middle stage, and starts to fatigue in the late stage. Just imagine, how many resources would a First-Tier contractor accumulate from killing their way from the First Tier to the early Seventh Tier?

This gave Su Xiao an idea. If there's a chance, go ask the Leader if any newcomers have joined the Brigade recently, preferably First-Tier members whose potential isn't considered excellent.

The Brigade recruits members at low tiers as they please. Su Xiao had even killed a few. When he was at a low tier, he worried about retaliation from the Brigade for a long time, only to find out later that there was no need to worry about such things. During a certain Void Banquet, he chatted with the Leader, and the Leader laughed after knowing about this.

If the Brigade has new members with average potential, he can use this bloodline to trade with them. First, sign a contract. He has no interest in 99.99% of the gains the other party obtains; what he wants are Basic Passive scrolls or some unique materials that only drop at low tiers.

For a newcomer contractor, this is an opportunity to rise from the First Tier. Although they have to pay some low-tier unique resources, the gains from each world will increase by several times, or even dozens of times. Ask yourself, who could refuse such temptation?

Moreover, without sufficiently strong power, that low-tier contractor originally had little chance of obtaining those low-tier unique resources that they would have to pay Su Xiao. Exchanging things they couldn't originally get for power—as long as someone has a bit of foresight, they won't refuse.

If one can start crushing from the First Tier, the possibility of obtaining such resources will be very high. Thinking of this, Su Xiao frowned. He was familiar with this method. When Marwin Waltz was a "black-hearted old grandpa," he sometimes did this. That guy wasn't just a black-hearted old grandpa to one person, but found a dozen targets and did it simultaneously.

Su Xiao thought that, actually, there was no need to contact the Leader for this; he could just contact the Witch of the Brigade. He edited an email and sent it to the Witch.

A few seconds after the email was sent, the Witch replied. What surprised Su Xiao was that two First-Tier contractors had indeed joined the Brigade recently. Clearly, the mortality rate of low-tier Brigade members was very high. The upper echelon only had those few, while the lower echelon was replaced batch after batch. This was the price—the price of enjoying powerful team skills without being subject to any control or exploitation.
