Chapter 8 – Amazing burst rate

Chapter 8 – Amazing burst rate

This left him somewhat surprised.

In "Tale of Immortal," the drop rate for equipment was extremely low, especially for weaker monsters, the likelihood of dropping equipment was even lower.

Unexpectedly, he had only killed an ordinary little snake, and out came a piece of equipment. This was truly unexpected.

The surprise was fleeting, and Lin Jichen quickly figured it out.

It must be thanks to his innate full-valued luck, which clearly bore the words "The Lucky One"!

In "Tale of Immortal," luck is divided into four types: bad luck, average luck, good luck, and great luck.

The majority of players have average luck.

A very small number of players have either bad luck or good luck.

As for great luck, it's as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, one in a million.

Of course, great luck doesn't mean that you can get a divine artifact by randomly killing a chicken; that kind of scenario only exists in the legends endorsed by Jackie Chan.CHeCk for new stories on no/v/el/bin(.)c0m

In "Tale of Immortal," even with the best of luck, it only means that within a certain range and the highest probability, you get the best things from a certain randomness.

Even so, that was enough to make Lin Jichen secretly delighted.

He looked down at the item that had dropped, and it turned out to be a bow.

A green bow shaped like a crescent moon lay on the ground.

Lin Jichen picked it up.

[Ordinary Grade·Green Bamboo Snake Bow]: An ordinary grade bow and arrow made from bamboo roots and snake tendons, strength +2, attack speed 1s.

He didn't expect to actually get a piece of equipment.

Too bad there were arrows but no bow.

Lin Jichen could only carry the bow on his back for now and continued to search for the second Green Bamboo Snake.

The second snake was just as easy to handle in Lin Jichen's hands, dealt with in a matter of seconds.

Apart from its venomous fangs, the snake surprisingly dropped another piece of equipment, leaving Lin Jichen at a loss for words.

After playing "Tale of Immortal" for so many years, this was the first time he felt like The Lucky One.

So this is how lucky players play the game, exhilarating!

[Ordinary Grade·Snake Venom Arrow]: 20 arrows tainted with snake venom, causing the target to lose 2 health points per second for 10 seconds, with effects that can stack.

What you wish for comes true; the Green Bamboo Snake Bow paired with poison arrows is quite a decent set of equipment for beginners.

However, Lin Jichen was in no hurry to use them. Such equipment was very powerful for beginners, but not enough to attract him.

The five men blocking Lin Jichen's way became furious and turned to threaten the effeminate man: "Mind your own business! Otherwise, we'll block you too!"

"Oh really? I'd like to see how you're going to block me?" said the effeminate man, as a dozen players followed up behind him.

The few were dumbfounded, realizing they had provoked someone they shouldn't have, and quickly apologized.

"Sorry, brother, we were blind. We'll leave right away."

"Stop! Who said you could go? Apologize to that brother over there, that's not too much to ask, right?" the effeminate man asked.

"Not at all, not at all." The five men apologized to Lin Jichen with a smile, and only then did they slink away.

After the bad guys left, the effeminate man turned to Lin Jichen with a friendly smile and said, "Brother, are you alright?"

Lin Jichen looked at the other's 'sincere' eyes and also revealed a meaningful smile.

"I'm fine."

Lin Jichen sneered inwardly; he didn't believe for a second that a villainous rich second-generation would come to the rescue out of a sense of justice.

Yes, he recognized this effeminate man.

In his previous life, this person was quite famous, the young master of Eternal Corporation and the president of Eternal Guild, ruthless and unscrupulous in achieving his goals.

And he was very good at disguising himself, with first-rate surface skills, especially adept at winning people over.

If it weren't for one of his close subordinates betraying him and exposing all his secrets, many people would still think he was a refined gentleman.

Lin Jichen recalled the expressions of those five men and their somewhat stiff dialogue.

He guessed that those five were probably this Eternal young master's men, putting on a show of coming to the rescue to leave a good impression on him, either to win him over or to buy the equipment he had.

Who says the second-generation wealthy are necessarily fools?

"Let me introduce myself, I'm Wang Jinghao, president of Eternal Guild. I was just passing by and saw brother being blocked, couldn't stand it and had to say something. I hope brother doesn't mind."

Wang Jinghao spoke flawlessly, the kind that made people feel close when they heard it.

Unfortunately, Lin Jichen knew his true nature and wasn't buying it at all.

Wang Jinghao had had a grudge against him before.

After Lin Jichen made it to the top ten of the heavenly rankings, Eternal Guild had sent people to poach him.

But Lin Jichen was proud and straightforward at the time, and he rejected the invitation on the spot.

Unexpectedly, this earned him the resentment of the Eternal young master, causing Lin Jichen to suffer several losses in secret.

If it were the old Lin Jichen, he would have chosen to leave without a word.

But now, having lived a second life, Lin Jichen's temperament had already changed.
