Chapter 151 - The Southern Oasis Crisis And The Treasure Of
The death of Serbal is also the feast of Leona. The moment Serbal's head separated from his body, Leona immediately dived in and grab Serbal's head for her to eat. As expected of Leona who was a glutton since she was a baby, even a boss is not safe.
The two girls sighed in relief and sit on the sand.
"Even though we are not the one fighting, but that was nerve-wracking! I don't think I can do something by myself like that!
" Dolly muttered as she breathes deeply.
"The immersion is just too great. Even the bosses seem to look like real-life kaijus. And I am sure that was one of those kinds, there are more much terrifying things out there right?
" Harmless Sparrow glance at Queen Tanya.
"Yep, there are lots of those monsters around, not only Serbal.
"
Due to the realism of Alternate World, every monster looks like a real-life monster and that includes the bosses who all have different looks and can be ugly or just downright cursed to look at.
Serbal's body also didn't escape Leona's eyes and in the end, she consumed it leaving those big bones alone. If only I can store the corpses I raise from the dead, rather than leaving them to proton where they die, I would already have some of the most dangerous summon in the game and surprising players with them during PVP or even during PK if necessary. Too bad, the game isn't designed like that. If it did, Necromancer is a pretty broken class since they can just revive bosses, keep them at their disposal and use it whenever they like.
My head is still throbbing a bit from the loss of mana. Even though I got the mana reduction passive in my Versatile Weapon, the passive only deducts the amount of the mana needed to conjure a certain skill so in the case of Time Eater, the amount of mana that I needed to activate the skill will be reduced based on the percentage of reduction on the passive but that's it. The 50 mp that will be deducted every 5 seconds will not be affected by the passive so it is going to tax a lot to the player
After I rested with the others, we walk towards the chest that appeared after Serbal died. After making sure the chest is not something that has a trap inside that will be triggered once opened, I let Dolly do the honors of opening it since I still remember many times in the past that whenever Dolly opens the chests dropped by bosses, there will always be bound to be something unexpected or valuable.
"Are you sure I will be the one who needs to open the chest? You did all the trouble of killing the boss so I think you have the most right to open this one,
" Dolly was hesitant.
"Don't worry about it, really. Besides, you guys also did something so it is alright to open it.
"
"Alright, in that case, I will rely on my luck to get something good!
"
CLACK!
A bright gold glow appeared after the chest is opened which means something inside of it is already in the tier of Very Rare or higher. As expected of Dolly, her luck is still something to be reckoned with.
Dolly who was entranced by the golden glow coming from the chest took out the contents one by one. Three weapons Chronomancer, Samurai, and Magician's weapon forms. 5 armor, 3 for the knight classes like the magic knight, swordsman, and other classes that specialize in using physical attack. Although Magic Knight has a specialty in magic, it is a class considered to be part of the knight classes. As for the remaining two, these are clothes for all magic-oriented classes. I don't care about those armors since I can make my own armor and I don't like the random stats too and the weapons are going to be fodders if given to me anyway so I am going to give them to the two.
There are also raw materials that are lucrative materials I can use for forging and alchemy but that is not the one I am attracted to. The last item brought out and has been the one glowing the entire time is a ring.
"Wow, not bad! That is a very cool-looking ring!
" Queen Tanya said as she took notice of the ring.
She inspected the ring and nodded to herself.
"This is quite a good find. I bet this could sell quite a hefty price if you put it to an auction. And if you use it, it also gives you quite a good amount of benefits so this is quite a lucky find indeed!
" Queen Tanya said.
Queen Tanya is quite knowledgeable about pieces of jewelry. In the past timeline, she even has a few jewelry item sets given out to some players that she conjured herself. She is also quite proficient in blessing cursed pieces of jewelry too so if she is saying this is good in just a glance without looking at its stats, then this is a genuinely good item indeed.
"If that is the case, Bladheart should get this one since this is the best drop here right?
" Dolly then hands it over.
Harmless Sparrow nodded though her eyes are fixated on one of the armor on the drops so I guess she is not even interested in the ring but the armor instead.
After confirming all the drops, I distributed the loot to everyone. Queen Tanya obviously declined it, while Dolly and Harmless Sparrow received the other loot, especially the equipment that is compatible with their class. The other items were a bonus and I just gave it to them since they don't have any interesting skills I can extract and the stats are mediocre compared to my weapon.
As for the materials, they didn't bother to take it since they still have yet to choose an EX class they wanted. Since I am the only one who has the use of these materials, I received them automatically.
Dolly and Harmless Sparrow bid farewell to us since they will have to log out and rest so it was Queen Tanya left behind with me to accompany me back to her castle.
"Your friends are quite interesting I must say, they are a little bit unique and has their own distinct personality but I must say that they are those people that will never betray you. I am quite sure of it.
"
I smiled a little bit after hearing what Queen Tanya said about them. Although Harmless Sparrow is certainly just tagging along, I can also guarantee that she is a person I can trust since she also helped me in the past timeline though, during that time, she has a tight schedule with all the things happening in her guild. If she is free from the burden in the past timeline, maybe we are still friends and companions in arms.
Just as we are about to depart, a carrier falcon appeared and hover above Queen Tanya.
"Oh? It looks like some sort of urgent message from the castle has arrived,
" Queen Tanya then stretch her hands and the falcon landed on her bracer. As expected, there is a letter attached to the falcon's feet. Queen Tanya removes the letter and feeds the falcon with some treats before sending it away.
She opened the letter and read the contents. While reading, her face frowned, and shook her head after she was done reading all of the contents.
"It looks like the other bosses that took the other areas have also died due to the other Pioneers too. Due to that, the dragon that seems to be in deep slumber has finally made its move and is currently moving towards the castle.
"
Oh? I didn't expect the other pioneers to be competent. Maybe because the whole Hell mode didn't happen so the bosses managed to become easy targets to the others. However, that is beneficial to me. The sooner the Pioneer Questlines are done, the better.
"Should we go back to your castle, Your Majesty?
"
"Yes. We need to get back. I will also require your help regarding this one. I will also fetch a summon order to call all the Pioneers to gather in the castle. Since the dragon is now on the move, it is time for the final battle.
"
