Chapter 321: Treasure Fishing, Myth Emergance
Kenshin and Sameira also joined them and attacked from afar because Erix's space control could save them from getting killed and save time.
Everyone could feel the amount of potency in Rin's and Erix's attacks! They were devastating and had so much impact that their attacks were impairing the giant robot!
After five minutes, the boss suddenly glowed brightly, and all of its joints and further parts separated and flew up.
"Phase two!"
"What the fuck, so fast?!"
"Monsters…"
The boss transformed into a circular disk and released drones that glowed red before unleashalf-a-meter tall hing lasers.
The people also started hurling out their attacks.
After another five minutes, the boss finally died.
Everyone died a lot of time except for Erix and the group.
After the boss died, everyone's powerful adrenaline was still running and they cheered loudly!
"We'll get first rank today!"
"Yeah! Our first time getting, but not last, hahaha!"
"We'll get daily first rank from now on, let's fucking go!"
Isabella smiled, "There is also a world boss ranking on which area defeats the world boss fastest. We've come into the top five, but never 4th or higher."
[World boss completed. Congratulations. Your area is the first to vanquish the boss. +1100 Mystic Coin to everyone.]
Afterward, a huge wall of top 100 contribution ranking appeared, while the rest got their personal rank in notification.
[Contribution Ranking]
Rank 1— Erix (1000 Mystic Coins)
Rank 2 — Rin (900 Mystic coins)
Rank 3 — Kenshin (800 Mystic coins)
Rank 4 — Sameira (700 Mystic coins)
Rank 5 — Isabella (600 Mystic coins)
…
Aria could participate and contribute, but only natives were allowed in various rankings and leaderboard rewards.
The top 100 got bonus Mystic coins according to their ranking but, everyone still got Mystic coins according to their contribution.
Erix got 12692 Mystic coins, and Rin got 10490 Mystic coins. Aria got 9704 Mystic coins, which was higher than Kenshin, so she contributed more damage.
"We got a lot of coins, eh?"
Erix was surprised.
"Yes. We get small increments in rewards everyday, but toughness also increases," Kenshin said before grinning, "But you three monsters broke the balance. We are ahead by a lot of time compared to yesterday, haha."
"Can we go and buy something from Mystic Shop?" Aria excitedly asked. She had gotten this mysterious currency and was curious to see the shop as she had seen nothing of such sort before.
Erix laughed and patted her head, "Let's go."
…
Naturally, many people rushed into the tower to buy things from Mystic Shop.
The fortunate thing was that the mystic shop was very mystical because it had infinite space.
Everyone who entered inside would arrive in a unique space individually, so there would never be traffic. It had tens of doors on the shop, so queues also only lasted for seconds as people rapidly disappeared into the doors to their individual shop spaces.
Erix looked at the roulette and spun it. It had five sections in runic letters, but Erix could understand them through the intent oozing out of them.
[ Talent | Skill | Equip-Item | Resource-item | Random | ]
After letting it spin for a few seconds, Erix pulled the lever to stop it, and the roulette started slowing down.
In the end, the pin stopped in the [Random] section.
The tab glowed before a shop interface of the [Random] section expanded, displaying the shop containing five items.
Note: You can only buy one item per list. To buy another, you must refresh the list.
Balance: 15302 Mystic coins.
1. Random Talent Stone: 500 Mystic coins.
2. Random Egg: 5000 Mystic coins.
3. Random Item box: 1000 Mystic coins.
4. Random Skill: 1000 Mystic coins.
5. Random Treasure Fishing: 10,000 Mystic coins.
<List refresh: 50 mystic coins> [ press ]
<Shop refresh: 100 mystic coins> [ press ]
[ Exit ]
"What is Random Treasure Fishing?" Erix raised his eyebrows at this peculiar option.
"Let's see," Erix grinned and pressed on the 5th option.
[Do you wish to buy Random Treasure Fishing?]
[ Yes ] — [ No ]
Erix pressed Yes without hesitation as his Balance reduced to 5302 Mystic coins.
[Your Mystic Shop has been upgraded to level 2. The chance of acquiring Tier-5 and higher items has increased. Spend 50,000 coins to reach level 3 and unlock a new section.]
A golden fishing rod also appeared beside him, and a mystical blue lake with colorful sparks inside manifested before him. It was as if something like a galaxy was in the pond, but it had an eccentric flow with those colorful sparks.
Erix walked forward into this whiteness space with this sudden magic pond appearing before him and grabbed the fishing rod before throwing the hook inside.
[Wait until something gets hooked and pull. If you do not pull, then you'll lose the fishing chance.]
"Alright," Erix stood properly and grabbed the fishing rod tightly before waiting.
Five seconds passed.
Half a minute passed.
Two minutes passed.
Erix narrowed his eyes, "What the fuck?"
He decided to be patient and closed his eyes.
Five minutes passed.
Ten minutes passed.
His eyebrows twitched, but went back to meditation and waited.
'Rin and others will be confused.'
Communication couldn't reach here, so a U-card would be useless and they would wonder why he was taking so long in the Mystic Shop.
Twenty minutes passed.
"This can't be fake or prank," Erix muttered and continued waiting without pulling up the rod.
Thirty minutes passed, and finally, the rod slightly moved.
Erix opened his eyes as they gleamed sharply at the pond. He couldn't see anything except for colorful sparks moving around inside, but the hook was slightly moving.
Without hesitation, Erix pulled up as he didn't want to lose the chance since the voice specifically said he would only get one chance.
It moved so subtly that Erix was skeptical at first, but the voice's warning also made sense in reverse. At first, it sounded as if the force would be strong and if he failed to pull, he would lose the chance.
But the hook moved ever so subtly as if it was an illusion, and if he didn't pull, he would never hook anything after that.
So he pulled and saw an absurd thing hooked on it.
It was a dark blue eyeball with light blue shining patterns and an abyssal black pupil but with demonic-looking black wings attached to it.
'What the hell is this?' Erix quickly used inspect on it and got details.
[Lapis Ilue Visiore]
_Type: Geno Gear.
_Grade: Special (Growth-type)
_Description: Replace your physical eyeballs with these eyes after infusing your Prana in it.
"Oh?"
Erix grabbed the eyeball and infused Prana in it.
In the next second, his body shook as his eyes and eyeballs were completely squashed brutally before their particles flowed into the winged eyeball.
"Fuck…" Erix grunted.
Meanwhile, the eyeball started shining before it turned into sparks and entered into his empty eyeshockets.
After some pain, Erix felt a soothing and comfortable sensation as coolness spread from his eyes to his mind.
He opened his eyes and looked around, but felt no different until he infused Prana in his eyes.
[Lapis Ilue Visiore]
_Stage: 1
_Effect: Increase Spirit recovery by 10% and grant Lapis Vision.
_Cost: 1 Prana per minute.
—> Lapis Vision: Allows you to see the flow of various energies.
_Note: You can train the eyes by using it on particular things. Its 2nd stage will be based on the type of thing you've observed most using the eyes.
"Interesting. For the flow of energies, using it when I craft items would be best," Erix grinned.
This could increase his crafting speed and if he trained his eyes for that, he might get more mystical benefits.
He didn't know what kind of potential it had, but it looked promising from what he saw.
'And I've stayed here enough,' Erix wryly smiled and quickly left the shop before getting bombarded with a shocking notification.
[Myth Emergance: Atlantis. Every sanctuary area has a gate leading to Atlantis. Explore it for its resources and treasures.]
[But beware, Atlantis is the place of Atlantians, and the foes inside are formidable. Depending on how much you've raided Atlantis, you will get daily retaliation from them.]
[Period of Myth Emergence: 5 months.]
Erix was dumbfounded and quickly left the tower. He didn't even need to fly up to see a huge one-hundred-meter-tall gate at the edge of the Sanctuary Tower, near the TreeBug guild's territory.
"They are moving away from the territory," Erix laughed and flew towards there. Thousands of people were also gathered there at the giant gates with a mystical dark-blue watery whirlpool filling it up.
Rin and others were there, so Erix teleported right beside them.
"What took you so long?" Rin confusedly asked, but then was startled when she saw his face and noticed his eyes.
"Your eyes look mystical and beautiful," Aria said with surprise.
"It seems you got something good from the shop," Sameira smiled.
"Yep. It landed on random, and I got this at 10,000 coins," Erix nodded with a laugh. "I can see the flow of various energies more clearly and constructively with these eyes for now, but it can be upgraded for more mystical effects based on my use."
His eyes were not red like before, but a mix of blue like that eyeball with red patterns in the pupils.
"I see. Anyway, we've been waiting for you," Rin said as he looked at the portal with a grin. "Let's go and explore Atlantis for a bit. The other guilds and many people already entered inside."
