Free Web NovelChapter 96: Chapter 45 Champion Reward_2
Ree Shil drank it on the spot and leveled up to LV4.
But when he got the Dungeon key, his face looked a bit unhappy.
Because the requirement for this single-player dungeon was LV5.
This made Black Smoke, who was beside him, feel quite uncomfortable.
He wanted the key but didn’t get it.
And now, someone else got it but couldn’t use it yet.
After completing the process on stage, the material rewards were presented.
So, under the guidance of the staff, Ree Shil went to different warehouses first.
Although it was called a warehouse, in reality, when Ree Shil arrived, he found out it was just a small room converted from an office.
There were built-in safes on three walls.
"Player Ree Shil, these are all C-Class Material Cards."
The staff input the password, and the safes opened one by one.
There were about 200 cards in each of the three safes, making a total of more than 600 cards.
"Wow, there are way more cards here than in the exclusive stores outside."
Only then did he realize that he had underestimated the depth of the Association Headquarters.
"Please don’t be shy, pick any card you want."
A hint of pride showed on the staff’s face.
Ree Shil approached one of the safes, but suddenly turned back and asked, "I haven’t seen much of the world, can I touch them casually?"
"Of course."
The staff smiled awkwardly.
You took out B-Class Cards at the card table, and you still dare to say you haven’t seen much of the world?
With permission, Ree Shil touched the cards inside the first safe.
"But please pay attention to the time, we can only stay here for at most half an hour."
Just as he was prepared to enjoy previews of the cards, he heard the reminder from the staff.
"Alright."
Left with no choice, he had to change his strategy.
Initially, given his accumulated knowledge of material cards during this time, he didn’t expect any significant enhancements for his main card group.
Since there was limited time and a lot of material cards, he would simply preview two main target cards.
These cards were the Water Sprinkler Truck and iron stick.
After fusing with these two cards, the practicality of the cards might be higher.
By narrowing down the range of main cards, his preview became incredibly fast.
"Huh?"
After previewing nearly 400 cards, he suddenly stopped.
In his hand was a Material Card called [High-grade Refined Iron].
[High-grade Refined Iron]: Can improve the quality of iron products
An ordinary name, a simple introduction, but it was the best material in this warehouse, no, since he started previewing materials cards.
It unexpectedly brought substantial improvement to the [Iron stick], turning it into a C-Rank Card.
"This one’s not bad, I’ll hold onto it for now."
Suppressing the impulse to decide immediately, he handed the card to the staff for the time being.
Then he previewed the remaining 200+ material cards one by one.
"Hello, I’ll take the [High-grade Refined Iron]." ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
After confirming there were no materials better than [High-grade Refined Iron], Ree Shil signaled to the staff.
"OK, wait a moment."
The staff nodded and took out an instrument resembling a flashlight from the back of his waist.
One end of the instrument was a glass probe-like structure with a six-pointed star array.
All material cards had a six-pointed star array of the same size on their surfaces, which was a small magic technology for anti-theft.
The instrument targeted the card’s surface, and beeped once.
"Congratulations, this card now belongs to you."
As the six-pointed star array disappeared, he handed the card to Ree Shil.
"Thank you."
Instead of fusing it immediately, Ree Shil went back to his resting room with the card.
There, the Mossy Mushroom and others were still waiting for him.
"Awesome, Cute Mushroom!"
"Congratulations, Grass!"
"Master is amazing!"
As soon as he entered the door, he received congratulations from the three non-human creatures.
"Just basic, nothing much."
Ree Shil laughed, kicked Straw Man who was trying to come and hug him, and motioned, "Let’s go, we’re going to have a feast."
"I knew you would say that, I even booked the place in advance!"
Mossy Mushroom understood him quite well.
"Master, so you’re treating us tonight?"
"Of course."
And so, a man, a straw man, a mushroom, and a slime left the Association Headquarters.
Hearing that Ree Shil would treat them, they didn’t plan on saving him money and didn’t take public transportation. They directly took a taxi to the highest-class hotel clubhouse in the city.
Mossy Mushroom took the menu and ordered all the dishes with the word "mushroom" in them.
For the dishes without mushrooms, it planned on forcing the chef to add mushrooms.
Fortunately, this extravagant and wasteful behavior was stopped by Ree Shil in time.
As for Straw Man, it had no ambition and asked the waiter to go downstairs and pack milk tea for it in the most high-class hotel.
Slime didn’t need to eat, but seeing everyone in high spirits, it also ordered several bottles of alcohol.
Mossy Mushroom secretly added alcohol to Straw Man’s milk tea, and the guy was oblivious.
After the meal, everyone was tipsy and went to the karaoke private booth upstairs in the dining room.
Slime was already so drunk that it had become like mud.
Mossy Mushroom had turned into a red mushroom man, holding a microphone, and wailing like a ghost or howling like a wolf.
Straw Man was quiet when drunk, trying to act deep and mysterious with an unlit cigarette from somewhere.
Ree Shil had been more restrained just now, and hadn’t reached the point of being out of control due to alcohol.
At this time, he finally had a chance to take out the[High-grade Refined Iron]and -[Iron stick].
Placing the two cards together, the preview result was immediately displayed.
[Iron stick]
Breaking force, 20 points, C
Attack 30, 100/100, 0/2
[Iron Product - Passive]: Iron stick’s Attack Power +5
[Iron Product - Passive]: Iron stick’s Attack Power +5
If he hadn’t previewed it before, he would have thought his drunk eyes were playing tricks on him now.
This card was very strange, with two identical attributes.
However, the card’s effect was rather powerful.
It just purely added 10 points of attack power.
A 20-point card with 30 attacks was straightforward, brutal, and cost-effective to the extreme.
Slap!
Ree Shil clapped his hands, and the light leaked out through the gaps between his fingers.
"That’s better."
After accomplishing this, Ree Shil completely relaxed, letting his body sink into the sofa.
The fatigue of concentrating during the daytime competition, combined with a slightly tipsy state, made him want to doze off.
But he couldn’t sleep because Mossy Mushroom’s singing was a bit hard to listen to.
The tune was there, but it always felt like something was off.
At this time, the red mushroom man standing on the table was singing wildly, while the Straw Man swayed with a cigarette dangling from its mouth.
The song was "Take Everything You Want" by a certain singer with the last name Hu.
It was said that this was one of their showstoppers when Mossy Mushroom and Straw Man performed part-time, but Ree Shil hadn’t had a chance to hear it in person.
[One year, two years, three years♫~]
[Already silent and reticent♫~]
[It’s hard not to feel sorry for you when I hear ’let’s part on good terms’♫~]
Just as the song was reaching its climax, Mossy Mushroom skilfully swung the microphone and handed it to Straw Man’s mouth.
[Watch them as they sell themselves for cheap, not caring about their worth, one after another, tallying them up as they’re being wiped out, turn off the light, grass!]
A long string of scorching lyrics sprayed out of Straw Man’s mouth like a machine gun.
Mossy Mushroom:[We owe each other nothing♫~]
"?"
Ree Shil sobered up in an instant.
What’s this?
Is this the Straw Man he knew?
He originally thought that the two of them would perform singing shows like "The Most Dazzling National Wind," and the Straw Man would only be responsible for "Stay, grass!" and the like.
Who knew that it couldn’t speak clearly but could sing so well?
They were indeed mysterious creatures.
Eventually, everyone stayed up drinking until late into the night.
When they returned home and woke up at noon the next day, Ree Shil found that Straw Man was missing.
He carefully thought back and realized that he had been busy taking care of the unconscious Mossy Mushroom and Slime, neglecting the guy who could still move.
Fortunately, Straw Man finally returned home when Ree Shil and Mossy Mushroom were having lunch.
It looked all right, with no missing limbs, but it walked lightly, its entire body covered in disheveled grass, and its face and body had multiple red lip marks.
Before Ree Shil could say anything, his phone rang.
Picking it up, he saw that it was a call from the Card Hall Supervisor.
