The caravan was left outside, and everyone followed a Banshee who had come out to greet them into the Magic Elevator.
As the elevator quickly descended, memories of Li Yao’s past life came flooding back.
There were many intriguing stories about Undercity, such as the elevator being known as the ‘Death Elevator’. It descended at such a high speed, even faster than a person falling from a sky, often resulting in inattentive players dying in the elevator.
Often, no sooner had the elevator arrived, a few players would step in, followed by others unaware that the elevator had already started descending, resulting in tragedy when they fell to their deaths within the elevator.
Truly, a single misstep could lead to a lifetime of regret, a fact lamented by countless players.
However, the geographical location of Undercity was so crucial. It was the gathering place for Dark Camp players on the East Continent and a main city teeming with numerous players. Despite the notorious title of ‘Death Elevator,’ unfortunate players would still appear.
The dungeon, transformed from a sewer, naturally wasn’t a sight for sore eyes
– it was terrifying and gloomy, even carrying a foul stench that refused to dissipate.
Of course, the areas filled with this foul smell constitute the first circle of
Undercity, the place where adventurers and newly-awakened intelligent Undead reside. A preservation pond encircles the city between the first and second circles.
The second circle serves various functions including residential, professional trainers, Skill Instructors, and various guilds among others.
The third circle is the outermost one, distributed around the second circle. The most important part of it, the Royal District, is where the Queen resides.
Li Yao and General Lothar had passed on the message to the Banshee and were waiting for the queen’s reply.
The second circle’s reception room, although still gloomy, didn’t carry the foul smell of decay, and the air was relatively fresh.
After a while, the leader of the Banshees returned and said, “The Queen has spoken. Only the person with the necklace and General Lothar are allowed to have an audience.”
“Thank you, Anna.” General Lothar exclaimed in delight.
The floating figure of the Banshee trembled and then spoke in an ethereal voice, “Anna is dead. I am now Banshee under Her Majesty.”
General Lothar’s joy faded. In this city deep underground, he could see many familiar faces, but they had all passed away and turned into Undead. Only a small number of Dark Rangers were still alive, but they were also very cold to him.
Li Yao simply couldn’t join the conversation. He didn’t have those privileges yet. He could only silently observe everything around him. In his previous life, he had never had the chance to visit the Royal District.
Li Yao was reminded of a past event where a powerful guild from the Light Faction, The Northern Bears, had organized hundreds of thousands of people to attack Undercity.
Unfortunately, they ended up tragically lost in Undercity, trapped and died within the city, failing even to find the location of the Royal District. It was deemed the most pitiful city slaughter in the history of the players, bar none.
At the entrance of a large hall, Anna stopped Li Yao and said, “This is a significant matter between the two tribes, and you’d best not get involved just yet.”
Li Yao nodded, acknowledging her words.
A flash of approval passed in Anna’s eyes, then she led Li Yao to a side hall and said, “Please wait here for a moment, Her Majesty wishes to express her apologies. ”
“Never mind, ” Li Yao nodded, the Queen’s character wouldn’t allow her to apologize to others. However, this Banshee was indeed good at handling things. Despite being a banshee, her presence gave a sense of comfort.
Li Yao was left alone in the side hall, expecting a long wait. Suddenly, he realized that he hadn’t looked into the big treasure chest yet, so he immediately took it out.
With a sense of expectation, Li Yao slowly opened the large treasure chest and reached in.
Savage Bull Hand Cannon
Quality: Purple Epic
Attack: 30-39
Strength: 22 Agility: 21
Stamina: 20
Effect: The cannon shell has the effect of a bull’s charge, and will knock back the opponent one step. Equipment class: Hunter
Equipment level: 6
Special property: Slow loading speed, reduced firing range.
Description: A component of the legendary heavy cannon crafted by a Dwarf.
Li Yao gasped in surprise. This was like another little artifact, not only with an attack power and attribute bonus far superior to that of its peers.
Especially the special effect of knocking back the opponent each time it hits, was incredibly powerful. Especially when used against smaller creatures, as each hit would knock them back such that unless they have instant casting spells, they would die under the Savage Bull Cannon before they could even cast a spell.
Li Yao carefully admired and tried this item, and then equipped it on his arm.
This hand cannon was substantial and slow, so it had to be mounted on the arm to be used. Plus, the loading speed was slow, and the range was comparable to a handgun only. However, its final unique attribute and high attack power compensated for everything.
The hand cannon, resembling a big-mouthed bull’s head, even had two sharp horns, which could be used effectively as a bayonet.
Most importantly, this was part of a set. The description indicated that another component could be combined with it to create a two-hand heavy cannon.
Li Yao was very clear that once the equipment set was assembled, the resulting equipment’s quality would upgrade by one level.
Li Yao sighed, knowing that the System wouldn’t yield such a low-level Gold Equipment, as the lowest Gold Equipment he’d seen in his previous life was at least level 10.
However, Li Yao was not disappointed. Even Gold Equipment wouldn’t be a worthy trade for this hand cannon’s special effects, let alone the possible assembly into a set.
Li Yao returned the hand cannon as he currently didn’t possess any bullets for it, so he couldn’t use it. Then, Li Yao picked up the second item from the chest.
High Grade Skill Rune: Enhances a skill with selectable enhancement attributes and progression. After enhancement, the attribute and progression can be re-chosen. Cooldown: 15 days/use.
Taking a deep breath, Li Yao touched the high-grade skill rune. It was a coveted treasure.
The enhancement attributes of an ordinary rune were fixed. If you wanted to change into a new rune, the old one would have to be scrapped. However, a high-grade rune could change the enhancement attributes, essentially making it a versatile rune.
For example, if Li Yao became a Dark Ranger, the best skills would be dark attribute. But if he becomes a boss with a different attribute one day, he would need a new set of runes. But with this one, he could simply switch over.
In his previous life, these runes were difficult to obtain. Even the highest-level godlike players hadn’t managed to gather a set of high-grade runes, which speaks volumes about their value.
Just this one rune was more important than anything else; he wouldn’t even exchange them for Gold Equipment.
Rapid Shooting: Greatly enhances the player’s arm flexibility, lasts for 15 seconds, Cooldown: 2 minutes.
This skill essentially allows Li Yao to be much faster with his hands, enabling him to load ammunition and shoot at a higher speed. It’s a highly practical and dominant skill.
After learning it, Li Yao reached into the box again, this time pulling out two Gold Coins, which he promptly put into his purse without much interest.
Then he looked at the last item.
Blueprint: World Amplifier
Usage: Teach you how to create a World Amplifier.
World Amplifier: Purple Epic quality
Usage: Enlarges the entire world for 10 minutes, or until you make an attack.
Note: Only Gnome cutting-edge technology can produce a device that can change the world.
Requirement: Intermediate Engineering
Li Yao looked puzzled. He didn’t expect such an interesting blueprint. It seemed useful, but also useless. However, under certain circumstances, it could be incredibly productive.
It was really hard to determine the value of this item…
PS: Almost a thousand recommendation votes already, it seems like there will be another update today. Thus, I’ll post the second chapter a bit early..
