Chapter 7 D-Rank Moonspotted Grass! Pay-to-win conversion?
A hazy silver light.
Under the bright moonlight, it's almost impossible to spot without careful observation.
Su Lin walked closer and took a look, and then he saw that it was actually a small, silvery-white grass!
The biggest difference between this little grass and ordinary weeds, besides its color, is that it has a fist-sized fruit in the middle, with black base and silver spots.
"Could it be a special medicinal herb?"
Su Lin's heart skipped a beat.
In the world after the game's invasion, not only have awakened humans appeared, but there are also wild monsters and dungeons in the wild.
The world's minerals, medicinal herbs, plants, and so on have all undergone changes to varying degrees.
Some special medicinal herbs can be used by pharmacists or alchemists in their professions to create potions with various magical effects.
"If it really is a special medicinal herb, then it could be very valuable."
"Take it back and we'll talk about it later."
Su Lin made an estimate.
Although the mutated wild boar king cannot drop equipment, its set of key materials can still fetch a high price of tens of thousands of yuan.
If you add this special medicinal herb, you'll make a fortune.
The only problem was that Su Lin had never seen this medicinal herb in textbooks, so he naturally didn't know what method to use to safely harvest it.
"That's the importance of experience."
Su Lin knew that although force determined everything in this world, to become a true strongman, combat experience, skills, as well as various information and experience were all indispensable.
This also demonstrates the importance of universities.
Universities are like sects in fantasy novels, possessing not only vast resources but also countless secrets and the experiences of predecessors.
These are things that independent cultivators cannot buy with money; they can only try and learn by paying various prices or even risking their lives!
"Speaking of which, Qingli and I grew up with Uncle Lin and received an education far beyond that of ordinary people. It's surprising that we don't even recognize this thing. It must be a good thing."
After thinking it over, Su Lin finally decided to uproot it completely.
Logically speaking, it would be best to leave the roots of such a treasure, or just pick the fruit, so that it might continue to grow in the future and be left for someone destined to receive it.
But he really couldn't figure out the value of this precious herb, so he could only take it all with him.
Swish!
However, the moment his fingers touched the blade of grass, a notification suddenly sounded in his mind.
[Ding! Detected D-tier rare treasure 'Moonspot Grass', which can be converted into 12 evolution points. Exchange now?]
"Holy crap! Really? You can do that?"
Su Lin was stunned.
After obtaining the system, he did try to study it, but apart from the fact that his pets could gain evolution points by killing monsters, he didn't figure out anything else.
Unexpectedly, another exchange option suddenly popped up!
This is a good thing!
"I was worried about this before. Although evolving a pet is simple, it seems like the number of monsters you need to kill increases tenfold each time you evolve!"
"If that's the case, the number of monsters you'll need to kill later on will be astronomical. Just killing them will be exhausting!"
"Knowing that it can be redeemed is actually a relief."
In Su Lin's view, exchanging rare treasures was just like spending real money.
As the adopted son of Lord Lin, any problem that can be solved with money is no problem at all!
cough cough...
That sounds like a bit of bragging.
To be honest, Su Lin really didn't know Uncle Lin's financial situation, but he was just joking when he said he relied on Uncle Lin.
His confidence comes from himself!
In this world, as long as you have enough fighting power, you will never lack money, and he has an infinite evolution system, so he will never lack fighting power!
I just don't know how much this herb, which can be exchanged for 12 evolution points, is worth.
But it's okay, we can go back and check, and we can roughly calculate how much one evolution point is worth.
In any case, it's definitely more cost-effective than spending money to buy those special treasures to evolve your pet!
That's a real bottomless pit!
"Transform!"
Without much hesitation, Su Lin chose to redeem the item on the spot.
Swish!
As soon as the thought crossed his mind, the entire Moonspotted Grass and the fruit in its center instantly transformed into a faint silver light, drifting into the air.
[Exchange completed, 12 Evolution Points obtained!]
Upon receiving the notification, Su Lin suddenly remembered that the Crimson Flame Python's evolution progress was already full. Could these evolution points have been swallowed up?
Then I looked at the Crimson Flame Python's interface.
[Evolution Progress: 10/10]
"???"
"Holy crap!"
Su Lin's vision went black.
"Wait, where are my evolution points? Shouldn't it be 22/10?"
"You fucking beast, you're even greedy for money from good people?"
"I'll fuck your ass, I'll punch you in the ass..."
He unleashed a torrent of abuse, a level of skill that rivaled the highest level in the game, but received absolutely no response.
Just as Su Lin's heart sank, he suddenly remembered something.
"Open my personal panel."
Swish!
Name: Su Lin
[Class: Beastmaster (Rank E)]
[Level: 4 (12%)]
[Health volume: 320]
[Mana: 480]
【Strength: 12】
[Physical Fitness: 18]
【Spirit: 48】
[Agility: 22]
[Skill: Contract Spell (Rank E)]
[Equipment: Purple-Gold Inner Armor (Gold), Deep Blue Blessing Bracelet (Gold), Wind Spirit Boots (Gold)]
[Contracted Beast Pet: Crimson Flame Python (D-rank)]
[Unused Evolution Points: 12]
For E-rank professionals, each level grants 20 points to the four main attributes, which are automatically allocated based on their career inclinations.
Beastmasters are a type of mage, and their most important attribute is mental power. The trade-off is that their other attributes are pitifully weak, especially their health, which is as fragile as paper.
Of course, compared to his pets and other professionals, 40 points of spirit is not high.
Moreover, this is an attribute panel enhanced by equipment.
However, Su Lin didn't expect his attributes to be any good, so he just glanced at them without any reaction.
It's not surprising that there's only one pitiful skill in the skill bar: 'Contract Technique'.
Professionals can only acquire skills through skill books, not to mention that beast tamers don't really have many offensive methods, and even if they did, Su Lin wouldn't have time to buy them.
As for equipment...
Although Su Lin really didn't want to admit that he was a kept man, he couldn't help it; being a kept man was just so incredibly appealing!
All three pieces of equipment were counterfeit or substandard products.
Note that this does not mean they are cheap goods!
Quite the contrary!
In this world where ordinary professionals have to grit their teeth and work hard for even a single piece of silver equipment.
Their gold-tier grade speaks for itself!
The so-called "three no's" are: no level restrictions, no job restrictions, and no attribute requirements!
To put it simply, these three pieces of equipment can be worn even by a newborn baby!
Its purpose, of course, is to save lives, save lives, and save lives!
The inner armor and boots were gifts from Uncle Lin, while the bracelet was naturally from Lin Qingli's secret stash of money.
To be frank, Su Lin did not want to accept these gifts.
After all, I've lived here for ten years, and they've taken care of all my food, drink, and daily expenses. It would be really unfair to accept such good equipment, each piece of which is worth millions!
But there's nothing we can do; they're just so good to us. If we don't accept it, the father and son will get angry with us!
Especially Lin Qingli, who looks like a fairy, crying her eyes out and asking Su Lin if he doesn't like her anymore—who could resist that?!
Since Su Lin couldn't resist, he had no choice but to reluctantly accept it!
"Cough cough..."
Su Lin touched his chin, feeling that he might have been a bit too pretentious.
Putting the equipment aside for the moment, he looked at the last line and immediately let out a long sigh of relief.
"Very good, I knew I hadn't misjudged you."
"I knew it! The Infinite Evolution System is the best system in the world, how could it be so corrupt even with just a dozen or so evolution points?"
He waved his hand dismissively, his face showing anticipation:
"Alright, that feels good, Crimson Flame Python. Let's go find a quiet place to evolve to C-rank!!"
