Chapter 444
The Royal Palace was too huge to explore . Honestly, Zhang Yang felt that if the monsters did not drop those lucrative equipment, he would not even want to explore the entire place! Not even if you paid him! After spending close to 24 hours of real world time, Zhang Yang and his party had explored only 20% of the entire Royal Palace . The total equipment that they had amassed had already reached the thousands .
Inevitably, all of their inventory slots were not enough to store that much . Zhang Yang remained inside the Royal Palace while the four of them went back to the main city using the [Teleportation Scrolls] . After depositing all of the equipment in the guild storage and personal storage, Zhang Yang had recalled them back into the Royal Palace with the [Party Summon Order] . Zhang Yang was not afraid of the item now working, since he had tried it previously . The system had not allowed him to summon more than 5 of them . That was the only condition .
Luckily, the [Party Summon Order] had only a 1 hour cooldown time . They had no worries of farming more equipment over and over again, and could repeatedly go in and out of the Royal Palace once their inventory was full again . The party continued onwards and arrived at a small building by the second evening . Inside, there was the first boss of the world . Truthfully, they could go around it and skip the boss fight . But, who would want to skip when they could kill it for its drops, with their eyes closed!
[Steamy Little Gu Gu] (Yellow-Gold, Spectre)
Level: 96
HP: 3,000,000
Defense: 1,700
The boss was only a Yellow-Gold tier . Zhang Yang could solo the boss with his hands behind his back! Considering the fact that most of the players in the entire game had endured many hardships, they could easily defeat this boss as well . Perhaps a strong team would be required to kill a Violet-Platinum for now . Hence, this boss was placed there like a bonus!
Swinging their weapons half-heartedly, the party killed the boss without no effort . The boss had dropped one Yellow-Gold equipment and two Gray-Silver equipment . After collecting the equipment, Zhang Yang felt that something was a little odd . The Royal Palace was not terribly difficult as he had imagine it would be . The monsters were not tough to defeat, and would bestow them a heap of equipment! It was like this place was a reward in itself . A reward for entering the place for completing the Dimensional Key quest! Besides the equipment, there were many herbs that were available for harvesting in this place . How could a place in a different dimension produce such an abundance of herbs? That did not matter for him . All he had to do was to pay yup 1,000 gold coins to summon the tiny little critter to harvest the herbs, while he went around killing more monsters .
The little critter was undeniably cute . When Zhang Yang first summoned it out, Wei Yan Er had let out a deafening shriek and had hugged the little thing! The Herb Foraging Familiar was so annoyed at the little brat that it had squirmed out of Wei Yan Er’s arms and had disappeared into the palace ground . One hour later, the Familiar returned and deposited all the herbs that it had gathered into Zhang Yang’s inventory, before disappearing from the world .
"Hm…Noob tank? Where, and how does that little cutey store all the herbs?"
"Erhm…" Zhang Yang frowned . How does one explain the mystical concept of online gaming to a naïve little kid . "I think, it has some sort of a backpack with him?"
"Huh? Really? I want to see!" said the girl with wide, unblinking eyes .
Zhang Yang sighed heavily and decided to ignore the girl .
After spending 5 more days of real world time, the team had finally explored every inch, every nook and cranny of the entire Royal Palace . Zhang Yang could guarantee that he had killed every single one of the monsters inside this realm . Han Ying Xue and Wei Yan Er were diligent in doing so; they had even turned over stones and trees just to make sure they could squeeze in all available drops from the monsters in this place . In these 5 days, they had collected a total of 3,532 Gray-Silver equipment and 17 Yellow-Gold equipment!
Even though the price for Gray-Silver equipment had plummeted drastically, it was still normal to sell one Gray-Silver equipment for a few hundred gold coins . When the equipment was special or had slightly higher stats than a regular one, it could be sold for hundreds or even a thousand gold coins . With such an abundance of Gray-Silver equipment in hand, they could at least sell them all for 600,000 to 700,000 gold coins! With the few Yellow-Gold equipment that they had acquired, their total earnings could reach a million! In truth, Zhang Yang was happier about the number of herbs in this place! There were so many varieties and rarities of herbs, that his Familiar had collected . Zhang Yang felt that after a thousand years of being isolated from the real world, all these untouched herbs that grown ever to wildly, and benefited Zhang Yang alone!
Zhang Yang and his party had spent 5 days in real time, which would be 360 hours in the game . Taking away the time that they took to eat and workout, Zhang Yang had summoned the Familiar to harvest herbs for a total of 350 times . Although he had spent 350,000 gold coins for it, all the herbs that the little critter had collected for him were worth more than a million! On the bright side, the best herbs he collected were so rare that no one was willing to sell them! The rarest herb he obtained was the [Mythical Fruit] .
[Mythical Fruit] could be used to concoct a potion called [Growth Potion], and the potion would permanently increase all Attribute points by 10! This potion effect was the same as the [Fate Crystal] found in the 10,000 Phantoms . However, 10,000 Phantom’s respawn rate was 10 days (real world time) . Besides, the monsters there were mostly Level 50 . Since the spawn point was randomized, no super guild could monopolize the place, since anyone could easily wipe the place clean . It all depended on luck, and luck alone . Hence, the reason why the [Mythical Fruit] is priceless .
All Zhang Yang required was to obtain the recipe to craft the [Growth Potion]! On a side note, Zhang Yang had the skill {Alchemist Intuition}, providing the chance to craft out a [Transmuted Grade 10 Growth Potion] which would, probably grant the user 20 points of all Attribute!
After the party went out of the Royal Palace to empty their inventories, they moved deeper into the Royal Palace and came to the Treasure Cove . The entrance was blocked by a 50 meters golden door . Wei Yan Er tried to pushed the door open, but failed do to so . The door did not even budge when she had pushed it till her face was red . Disgruntled, the little brat had swung her axe and bashed the door, and as a result, the door remained unscathed while the little brat’s axe was notched! The system reported a loss of 10% Durability for her axe, making the little brat as angry as a little boar .
Zhang Yang laughed for a good while before he took out the Dimensional Key and slotted it into a hidden keyhole on the side . A loud mechanical cog cracked away and the door was unlocked . The key popped out and the golden door cracked opened into two panels . The doors opened wide and revealed a darken hallow . There was nothing . Zhang Yang could not see anything from his side .
"Erhm…are we supposed to go in there?" Daffodil Daydream asked .
"Yeah . . . "
