Chapter 333: All Buffs, All Debuffs (4)
Outside Kotum Castle the next day.
“Check inventory.”
I opened my inventory and pulled out a few items.
[4 General Trait Shards.]
[2 Shiny Trait Shards.]
[General Trait Shard (Legendary)
-Shards of a shattered trait.
– You can collect and combine 3, 5, or 7 trait shards. The more shards you combine, the higher likelihood to obtain a high-grade trait.
-You can have randomly acquired traits or exchange with others.]
[Shiny Trait Shard (Legendary)
– Shiny trait shards increase the probability of obtaining a higher-grade trait than normal trait shards.
-You can combine them with general trait shards.]
Actually, I obtained them after I was forcibly exiled to Region 0 by a guy named Pablo.
But I hadn’t obtained a single one since then until now, so I had forgotten about them for a long time.
Of course, if I wanted to, I could still combine 3 or 5 of them because I had 6 trait shards.
But I was reluctant to combine them because the message said there was a higher likelihood of obtaining higher-grade traits if I combined more trait shards.
I knew that one extraordinary trait boasting was much better than dozens of mediocre traits.
“By the way, this time I received some trait shards that I haven’t seen in a long time…”
To be honest, I was a bit embarrassed by the appearance of the trait shards.
But I thought it wasn’t bad because I could now use them instead of keeping them in my inventory.
After that, I finally took out the treasure chest that offered 1 to 10 trait shards at random and carefully opened it, crossing my fingers and hoping that I could obtain more Shiny Trait Shards than general ones.
[Congratulations!
– You have acquired 1 General Trait Shard.]
[Congratulations!
– You have acquired 1 General Trait Shard.]
[Congratulations!
– You have acquired 1 General Trait Shard.]
Three messages that I got general trait shards rang successively.
I had no choice but to frown because I confirmed the same thing in the 4th, 5th and 6th messages.
But the 7th message showed something I wanted.
[Congratulations!
-You have acquired 1 Shiny Trait Shard.]
A message that I got a Shiny Trait Shard rang for the first time, and repeated two more times.
Then the treasure chest, which was meant to randomly give 1 to 10 trait shards, disappeared after giving me a total of 9 trait shards.
Considering that obtaining only 1 trait shard was the worst scenario, I was lucky enough to obtain as many as nine trait shards.
Even though I was so anxious because it didn’t come out early on, I was relieved to see the messages about the Shiny Trait Shards.
“I only have 5 Shiny Trait Shards in total?”
I wanted to try making a combination with a total of 7 Shiny Trait Shards, but I was lucky to collect even this much.
At that moment, another message rang.
[You have 5 or more General Trait Shards.
-You can use 5 General Trait Shards to trade for 1 Shiny Trait Shard.]
“Oh, this is great.”
This time, I thought I was really lucky. I originally had 4 General Trait Shards, and if I subtracted the 3 Shiny trait Shards from the 9 shards I obtained from the treasure box, I acquired another 6 General Trait Shards. In other words, I had a total of 10 General Trait Shards.
Anyway, I tried trading 10 General Trait Shards for Shiny Trait Shards.
[You have replaced 5 General Trait Shards with 1 Shiny Trait Shard. ]
[You have replaced 5 General Trait Shards with 1 Shiny Trait Shard. ]
As soon as the message rang, I had only 7 Shiny Trait Shards in my hand.
In other words, the trait shards in my possession were neither too little nor too many.
So I had no choice but to say one thing.
“So far so good.”
Then I immediately shouted to keep up the great atmosphere.
“Combine trait shards!”
[You have started to combine trait shards.
-Currently you have 7 Shiny Trait Shards.
-There are 3, 5, and 7 types of combinations.
– How will you combine them?]
“All of them!”
After all, I’ve been collecting the trait shards to acquire a mighty strength that would kill the enemy with one single attack, so I chose to combine all of them. At that moment, light emitted from the 7 Shiny Trait Shards in my hand, along with a message.
At the Mitsuya Guild Headquarters in Tokyo, Japan at that time.
“How is it going?”
Mitsuya Group Chairman Ryu Sechi asked, placing one hand on his throbbing forehead.
Kimoshita, the head of the Intelligence Department, opened his mouth with a dark expression.
“Well, we have kept them at bay in Donbotori, Osaka, but that’s our weak spot in reality. If we try to destroy them by breaking into their shields, they will fight back fiercely, and the resulting damage will be…”
“How big would the damage be?’
“Well, we will suffer twice the damage we suffered before.”
“Oh my…”
Chairman Ryusechi had no choice but to let out a big sigh at his reply.
As a matter of fact, the damage they had suffered until now was too much.
So, if they suffered another attack resulting in more than twice their previous damage, the Mitsuya Guild’s power would be reduced to almost nothing.
“Who the hell are those guys? NPCs?”
“They are definitely not monsters. So there is a high probability that they are NPCs.”
“This is crazy. It is really driving me nuts. How come we realized it too late?”
Chairman Ryusechi complained helplessly.
Then he opened his eyes wide and said clearly, “We can’t take any more damage from now on. So contact Myongjin.”
“Yes, sir!”
The head of the Intelligence Department did not comment or refute what he said.
He also knew that was the most reasonable answer for them to overcome the current situation.
Outside Kotum Castle.
Originally, this place was very crowded.
But it became gradually empty when it was impossible for new users to log in, and when even those below level 100 could not access Revival Legend.
Even those who played Revival Legend leisurely until now were consumed by worries that sooner or later they might see a message that those below level 200 could not access, so they were now busy coping with the situation as best as they could.
But I chose this place because of that.
While I was hunting here, I felt like I was walking alone in a large castle during the 3rd Closed Beta. Anyway, I purposely chose a more remote place to combine the trait shards. Soon, light leaked from each of the Shiny Trait Shards before being merged into one.
At that moment, a message rang.
[Congratulations!
-With 0.001% chance, you have obtained the trait of ‘All Buffs, All Debuffs.’]
“All Buffs, All Debuffs?”
By hearing the name itself, I could not figure out exactly what kind of effect this trait granted me. But what was certain was that the probability of 0.001% was very low.
But it was highly probable that it was a good trait because generally speaking, the lower the probability, the better.
I opened my mouth cautiously, expecting something good, of course.
“Check trait ‘All Buffs, All Debuffs’.”
