Chapter 197: 197,【Special Attribute Points】

Translator: 549690339

As for the Sword of the Absolute World Hegemon mentioned by the gentleman, Lu Xun couldn’t help but want to test its power, but using a third of his life as an experiment seemed far too extravagant.

On the other hand, if he had initially been captured by Ji Li to be a human battery, every time he was drained, he would also have to pay about a third of his life.

Three times and one would be completely drained. Being drained meant death!

Upon such realization, wasn’t the Sword of the Absolute World Hegemon equivalent to an evil skill?

“Let’s set it aside as a life-saving card for now.” Lu Xun thought.

With this thought in mind, he cast a glance at Lin Chan next to him, silently hoping: “I hope Little Chan will never have to use this sword technique in her life.”

Although the backlash of Lin Chan’s Broken Sword Technique was mainly taken by the Partridge Sky, Lu Xun thought it was impossible for a person’s body to remain completely unscathed. Minor shadows of harm would be left behind, which was not what Lu Xun wanted to see.

As one of the world’s protagonists, the path that Lin Chan was going to take was bound to be full of difficulties.

Lu Xun would do his utmost to stand in front of her.

At this time, Ye Sui’an, who had gone out for a stroll, had returned as well.

Lu Xun looked at him with a warm smile, thinking to himself: “I notice you’re quite fond of addressing Lin Chan as ‘sister’, well then, as fellow protagonists, you should take on more of the responsibility in defending the Heavenly Dust Continent. I will also create opportunities for you to take on more.”

“Yes, this is all Elder Lu’s way of tempering you!”

Ye Sui’an faced Lu Xun’s gaze, only to feel that while Elder Lu’s smile was as gentle as ever, there was an underlying hint of amusement within it that was somewhat hard to decipher.

At this time, the long-suppressed Spirit Crows were circling in the night sky, constantly squawking:

“Cluck- Cluck-!”

The night passed without incident, and everyone was engrossed in cultivating.

As dawn lit the eastern horizon, everyone rose early and set off on their journey once more.

Everyone was indeed puzzled as to why Lu Xun was so eager to head back to the Demon Sect.

Of course, they didn’t know that there wasn’t much time left until the public test of “Heavenly Dust”. Lu Xun was anxious to return to the Demon Sect’s sphere of influence, which would facilitate subsequent developments.

Lu Xun had a noble identity, with the backing of the Demon Sect and the gentleman. Even if he was a bit reckless outside, it wouldn’t create a significant impact.

But in the end, it’s always more comfortable on your own turf.

Being cautious in one’s actions is not a bad thing.

In the forums, a huge banner counting down 3 days had already been posted. Translated into the time of the Heavenly Dust Continent, there were still 30 days left before the players arrived.

From the speed of their journey, as long as nothing unexpected happened on the road, they should be able to return to the Demon Sect’s sphere of influence.

Meanwhile, during these days when Mao Nanbei was in charge of driving the paper crane, Lu Xun would occasionally browse through the forum. He finally saw a message left by his Sword-Serving Child Mo Guanji.

“I thought this guy had croaked, turns out he’s been in love, ugh!”

Lu Xun grumbled inwardly, feeling that his concern had been wasted.

Mo Guanji left the message under a post that Lu Xun had made.

The post was a video of Lu Xun instantly killing a zombie with his Senior Brother’s Sword Qi, which had caused a sensation in the forum. Even today, it was still amongst the top posts in terms of popularity.

The popularity of the Purple Palace back then was evident.

However, since that post, Mo Guanji had not posted anything else, but there were always hilarious comments left by players, requesting him to update more posts related to the Purple Palace.

Some even cared to ask: “Poster, are you still there?”

Mo Guanji had not posted anything or replied in weeks, until today he replied tearfully under that post:

“I’m back! Gaming is better than dating! I hate it!”

Lu Xun clicked his tongue a few times, thinking: “Seems like he was played.”

“I wonder if the person who played him was male or female?”

He didn’t know that after Mo Guanji had blown up in popularity in the forum, a large number of players had sent him private messages. He picked a few with the most beautiful, sexy, or cute avatars and started chatting with them.

Did this innocent boy not know that many manly men also liked to use sexy women as their avatars?

And that many macho men’s favorite avatars were those of cute girls or anime characters!

What’s wrong with macho men liking cute things?

Mo Guanji felt a surge of hatred in his heart. These deceitful men had been pretending to be girls just so they could cheat him out of information related to the Purple Palace!

Luckily he was quite cautious, so his current loss was only a broken heart.

At this moment, with the paper crane flying in the sky, Lu Xun narrowed his eyes, closed the forum, and a smile appeared on his face.

His exploits in Ghost’s Grief had long since spread. The Demon Sect had probably received news of it already, and the Sect Reputation Value had been rapidly increasing in the past few days.

All the disciples felt that Young Elder was always making the Demon Sect look good, and their adoration for him was added to the Sect Reputation Value and was all pocketed by Lu Xun.

The increase in reputation value had gradually stabilized in the past few days, no longer skyrocketing, but was awkwardly stuck at just over 9900.

Fortunately, it still increased by a few points every day, and today it finally broke through the 10,000-point mark!

The next Prestige Value Task requires directly reaching 20,000 prestige points, the difficulty is insanely high. This task is not worth considering temporarily, but it’s still necessary to keep up appearances, prestige points need to be accumulated steadily.

After Lu Xun accepted the reward, 100,000 experience points quickly flowed into his account, and at the same time, he also received 1 random special attribute point.

“Hehe, it’s the heart-throbbing lottery time again!”

Even though Lu Xun was quite unlucky, and the Swordsmanship Aptitude, which he needed the most, had never been drawn, he was always very keen on the lottery.

Everyone has a bit of a gambler’s mentality. In games, as long as there are items related to luck, players can always sell them out!

The familiar Big Roulette appeared before Lu Xun’s eyes. He rubbed his face with both hands and decisively chose to draw.

The big roulette spun rapidly, its speed so fast that one could not see the prizes on it.

To be exact, there were all kinds of special attribute points, a mixed bag, so even if you could see them clearly, with so many prizes, it would still make people’s eyes dazzle.

And some special attribute points, for some people, could be treasures, for others, they would seem useless, it all depended on the person.

Like the Crit Rate, this special attribute was useless for Lu Xun, because the passive effect of the Sword Cultivating Technique was a 100% critical hit rate.

“Charisma is also useless, my Charisma is already at max, I shouldn’t draw Charisma again, right?” Lu Xun thought.

Lu Xun’s lucky number was 7, he counted seven beats and then chose to stop.

The big roulette slowly came to a stop, the other prizes were still blurred, as if they were pixelated, while the drawn special attribute point was immediately displayed.

Lu Xun looked at the prize he had drawn, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and he inwardly said:

“That’s too much!”
