Chapter 453 Drop Rates

Using his modified Calm Mind, Angus manages to have a long 'talk' session with the Vitas leader.

"I see… Alright, you could die now." said Angus as he flicked his finger and Vitas leader's body burned to ash, leaving nothing behind.

A unique race body like Vitas is a precious resource. If they are able to study thoroughly and find the secret to traveling underground, they may be able to create skills, spells, or magical tools with similar functions.

Unfortunately, the Vitas leader's body is already beyond recognition. After a long 'talk' with Angus, he has become nothing but a mangled lump of meat. The reason he is still alive is because of Angus' 'mercy'.

Done with his long 'talk' session, "Did you hear everything?" asked Angus to the corner of the room.

Suddenly, a person emerges from the darkness and kneels in front of Angus with fear and cold sweat.

He is one of the shadow squads that should inform Angus about the Vitas base camp. At first, they didn't find any trace of Vitas mercenary's base camp and decided to follow one of the Vitas outside the camp.

They plan to follow the Vitas into their base by hiding inside their shadow. After a series of unprecedented events, Angus and the others manage to force out Vitas from their base camp underground and leave the shadow squad without any more tasks.

"Yes, sir." said the shadow squad member anxiously.

He witnesses Angus having a long 'talk' session with the Vitas leader. The shadow squad often uses torture to extract information, but his torture method looks like a child's play compared to Angus. Now, he couldn't help but fear the young Baron in front of him.

"Good. Then, make sure to eliminate all of them. Don't forget to take their corpse and not leave any witnesses. Also, spread some rumor about having bad luck if people alliance with Nergal." commanded Angus coldly.

"You will report all of this to Jade and His Majesty. Unless it is an emergency, don't contact me." added Angus.

"Yes, sir." replied the shadow squad member shortly.

"Good. You are dismissed." said Angus.

After the shadow squad member disappears into the darkness, Angus removes the Earth dome and barrier spell that enclosed him nearby. Currently, the land is no longer shaking. Angus guesses Onyx is already returning to Anna and ends its fight with the gigantic tentacle creatures.

Thinking about the tentacle creatures, he feels a deep fear of it. If it was only big, he didn't care too much. But, he also witnessed a few indirect light beams which came their way. These light beams have the power of at least a fifth-grade combatant's full-power attack.

He may die before regenerating if his whole body is exposed to these light beams. Even Anna also didn't dare to touch these light beams carelessly.

Coming out of his torture chamber, Angus notices a few familiar people near Jayna and Anna. Without wasting any more time, he approaches them and finds Elder Zeth and Isvel along with a few Sur Knight.

"Ahh… You are finally finished, cousin. Did you know…" said Isvel playfully.

"Yeah.. Yeah.. good to see you too, Isvel. Greetings, Elder Zeth." said Angus as he stopped the chatterbox from talking further before greeting the ex-Sur Village elder.

"Did you finish your business?" asked Elder Zeth.

"Yup. Let's go back now." said Angus and hit Anna's head as she tried to eat the Vitas corpse.

*Bonk* "Oww.. It hurts!!" said Anna while holding her head.

"Hahaha… Shrimp, you have not changed at all." laughed Isvel loudly.

"Shut up, spiky yellow bubble!!" retorted Anna.

Among the Sur villagers, Isvel is the only one that didn't care about Anna's identity and often teases the little troublemaker. Because both have a mischievous nature, they seem to become close to each other.

Unfortunately, as the fastest Sur knight and Jade's second son, Isvel is too busy with many things. Moreover, he spends most of his free time doing his passionate hobby, peeping women's baths.

"Pervert!!" said Jayna coldly as she prevented Anna from getting close to the peeping tom.

"Haha…" laughed Isvel as he didn't retort Jayna's remark.

Then, they immediately go back to the Windshire Fort at full speed. Currently, the situation in the Humnia Grassland is too dangerous. They don't know when that tentacle monster will appear. Moreover, they also bring Onyx, who hides inside Anna's clothes.

Fortunately, they managed to reach the Fort without trouble after four hours of running at full speed. They could see many cracks in the gigantic long Fort's wall, but it still looked sturdy and intact.

Seeing the damaged wall, Angus feels like various headaches will come to him. He already saw a long bill from King Leon and Aunt Extalia to fix the wall.

"Urgh… I hear raising a child is hard and costly. But, I never knew it would be this hard." muttered Angus in a low voice.

Noticing Angus' distress, Jayna couldn't help but try to hide her laughter and giggles. She didn't worry too much about Angus getting out of money.

She knows how much Angus can make money from the percentage of Miasma Antidote's sales, not to mention his business deal with Aunt Hersha about the monster part.

Angus may be unable to give a constant supply about the monster part since each monster has different drop rates. Sometimes it only drops a few grams of monster meat, while other times, it doesn't drop anything.

Still, every time Angus does a transaction with his aunt, he could easily make a few hundred thousand gold coins. Even if he only makes deals once a month, he could easily rake in a few million gold coins by the end of the year.

Moreover, Angus' idle system also unlocked various monsters from the Endless Battlefield dimension. Few of these monsters are very rare or even extinct in Firuman. Their monster part can no longer be bought with only money.

Yet, Angus can sell his aunt this kind of monster part which is like a priceless artifact in the Firuman. Unfortunately, he couldn't get this kind of monster part too much. He didn't know how the monster drop was calculated, but he felt different monsters have different drop rates.

Some monsters always leave behind the monster part, but others don't leave anything even after killing it more than a hundred times. Angus also finds low-grade monsters have higher drop rates except for a few unique monsters.

Legendary monsters like Mundus also have a very low drop rate. After a few years of experimenting, Angus found the more unique and high its grade, the lower they dropped the monster part. The monster parts are also not random.

The more useful and valuable it is, the lower its drop rate. For example, the most valuable part of a Bear Bee is its claws and glands. Among the two, the gland has a higher value than the claws as it has a lot of use in alchemy.

This makes the Bear Bee's gland have a lower drop rate than claws. As a result, Angus will get Bear Bee's claw rather than its gland when the monster part drops from Bear Bee.

As soon as they enter the Fort, Angus is forced to meet with Jade and Aunt Extalia while the others are resting in their room. Angus could only groan in protest since it was already late in the night.

As he expected, he is getting lectured by Aunt Extalia and Jade until morning for his recklessness. Jade rarely lectures Angus since he owes the youngster a lot. He always gives Angus more freedom even when they travel together inside the Endless Battlefield.

But, he couldn't sit still this time since Angus and his group almost killed many soldiers in the Windshire Fort under his command.

Jade didn't care much about his prestige as commander and the soldier's life but didn't want his soldiers under his command to die in a pointless fight against a colossal monster because of Angus' blunder.

Although technically it is not Angus' fault, it is Anna's fault. He is still Anna's guardian and promises King Leon he will be responsible for all Anna's deeds inside the Heart Kingdom.

Fortunately, Anna is inside the Humnia Grassland when she grabs and beats the baby octopus. Hence, it will not give the other noble any reason to kick out the monster-minded girl if everyone knows the inside story.

Still, Jade and Aunt Extalia didn't want any similar incident to happen in the future and lectured Angus for hours. By the time they released Angus, the sun had already risen on the horizon and he didn't get any time to enjoy the comfy bed.

Entering Jayna's room, he finds Jayna lying beside the sleeping little troublemaker while smiling, enjoying the bed's comfort. She deliberately teases Angus and rolls around the bed.

"Ahh… It's so comfy. It's different from the bed inside the carriage." teased Jayna with a mischievous smile.

"Arghh… That's enough!! I will sleep now." said Angus as he undressed his clothes and jumped at Jayna.

Before Jayna could react, Angus already embraced her and slept beside her. Jayna didn't fight back and let her lover cuddle around her. As they enjoy each other, the little troublemaker keeps sleeping peacefully near them while Onyx slithers away from Angus' sudden intrusion.
