Chapter 405: Chapter 405: Leaving
Song Jian was holding a potion recipe diagram in his hand.
“Let me see what the recipe is?” Tang Rong looked interested because he also studied alchemy and pharmacology as a side occupation.
Song Jian generously showed the potion recipe.
“Brave Potion recipe. After use, you can learn how to craft ‘Brave Potion1. Usage Requirement: Alchemy and Pharmacology level 5. Brave Potion: After consumption, all attributes increase by 10% with a duration of 30 minutes. You can only use one bottle at a time, and stacking is not effective.”
“A status potion! My God, this is a potion you can use your whole life!” Tang Rong exclaimed in surprise.
This potion is almost useless for novices, but the higher the level and stronger the person using it, the greater the effect of the potion.
For Song Jian, using this potion would increase attributes by 4 strength, 4 agility, 2 constitution, 1 spirit, 1 intelligence, and 1 charisma—a total of thirteen attribute points.
The higher the attribute value of a person, the stronger the increase effect.
Even if Tang Rong and the others used it, they could increase their attributes by three or four points.
“Don’t be envious. Even if I gave it to you, you couldn’t learn it. As I recall, your Alchemy and Pharmacology level is only 1.” Ma Yu looked at Tang Rong and said.
“It’s already at 96% for level 1.1 will reach level 2 soon, thank you!” Tang Rong replied without hesitation.
“Even if you reach level 3, you can’t learn it. This recipe requires level 5. That’s quite a distance for you.”
“Thank you for your reminder, but I can see the usage requirements of this recipe.”
Song Jian just smiled and, right in front of everyone, instantly learned the formula. The whole recipe transformed into golden fragments and surged towards Song Jian.
This sight made Tang Rong’s mouth twitch a bit.
“Did you really have to learn it right in front of us? Is it so great to have a high level in Pharmacology?” Tang Rong howled in his heart.
The others just sympathetically looked at Tang Rong without uttering a word.
“Brother Song, we’ve got twenty-two enhancement stones in total this time. How about we split them directly instead of selling them? They’re hard to come by.” Wang Qi hesitated for a moment before saying to Song Jian.
“Enhancement stones? Sounds good!” Song Jian gave a slight smile. He wanted the enhancement stones, but he already took the most valuable things from the dungeon. Asking for enhancement stones now, even though Wang Qi and the others would surely give them to him, it would seem a bit greedy.
“Let’s each have four stones, and the rest goes to you, Brother Song.” Wang Qi handed over six enhancement stones.
“Alright!” Song Jian glanced at the others and, seeing no objections, he took the enhancement stones.
“Heh, I’m going to use mine on my codex!” Zhou Qing said excitedly.
“Of course, I’m using mine on my weapon.” Tang Rong looked eager to try.
Ding, ding, ding-
Wang Qi, who had been silent all along, directly smashed all four of his enhancement stones onto his newly acquired Gauss sniper rifle.
Four enhancement stones increased the rifle’s damage by 40. This damage was nearly comparable to that of a silver-quality weapon at level 20.
Enhancement stones can enhance weapons and armor, but they can’t enhance rings or other accessories.
Song Jian thought for a while and directly smashed the enhancement stones onto his Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword. Of the six stones, five were successfully enhanced, and one failed.
The damage of his Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword increased by fifty. It was terrifying how even a single normal attack could cause more than two-hundred points of damage.
“Brother Song, why is our dungeon exploration completion only 80%?” Zhou Qing suddenly asked.
You know, the higher the completion rate of the dungeon exploration, the more rewards you get. Having only completed 80%, clearly appears as if there’re areas in the dungeon they haven’t explored yet.
“I’m not sure, maybe there are places we haven’t explored yet?” Song Jian frowned slightly— he also saw the previous system prompt— and was taken aback when he saw the 80% completion rate.
Just then, the strange cage made of beds, tables, and chairs they’d discovered before, popped into his mind.
“Let’s go check it out!” Song Jian strode towards the previous cage.
At this point, the wooden bed in the cage had already turned into rubble, and the table and chairs had been destroyed during the previous boss fight.
But a strange pattern faintly appeared on the ground amidst the rubble.
After sweeping away the rubble of the wooden bed, Song Jian found it to be a peculiar Hexagram Array Diagram. It looked somewhat similar to the summoning array he used for summoning Blood Servants.
“There might be a hidden boss in this dungeon…” Song Jian said in a low voice.
However, now that the dungeon has been completed, they could only enter once a day. So, to verify Song Jian’s guess, they would have to wait until tomorrow.
“Shall we come back tomorrow and see?” Tang Rong glanced at his companions and asked.
All eyes turned to Song Jian.
Song Jian nodded. He had nothing else to do anyway, and even if the items dropped from the dungeon were reduced by one tier, not all of Song Jian’s equipment was level 20. He might as well take this opportunity to complete his level 20 equipment set.
“Alright, so we’ll come back tomorrow!” Wang Qi said with a laugh. “Let’s rest for two hours now, and then go to the Central Bank together. How about it, Brother Song?”
After clearing a dungeon, Song Jian had used up a lot. He had exhausted all his Weakness Potions and Slowness Potions, with only two bottles of healing potions left.
Wang Qi still had many dungeon drops that he wanted to sell off now.
Song Jian nodded and said, “Okay, let’s rest for two hours and then go directly to the Central Bank.”
The Central Bank is marked prominently on Song Jian’s map. It’s a level 20 monster area—who knows how Wang Qi and the others had dared to explore there before.
Clearing a dungeon was exhausting. Song Jian was on the brink of mental breakdown, especially after the final boss fight. Although he had entered a state of understanding that greatly enhanced his Tai Chi Sword Skill, it took a heavy toll on his mental strength. His head was slightly aching at the moment, and he wished he could sleep right away.
But when he returned to the Manor Castle and was about to rest, the butler George was still waiting outside his room.
“George, what is it?” If it wasn’t something important, George wouldn’t do this.
“My lord, your female guest has woken up. She left with the Dawn Warrior you newly recruited. Here’s a note she left for you.” George handed a folded note to Song Jian.
“What? She left and took the Dawn Warrior I recruited recently?” A stunned Song Jian quickly checked the follower interface. Fortunately, the Dawn Warrior had not betrayed him and his loyalty had not decreased either.
“I saved her life, and she ran off with my follower. Let’s see what she has to say.” A disgruntled Song Jian opened the note to read it carefully.
