Yi Qiu touched his bald head as he looked at the offering list on his retina screen and thought about it.
Food should cost the least which was why the effect should also be the weakest.
But food that Yi Qiu made through the recipes would be recognized by the Integrated Network which means that stats would show up right away. Currently, Yi Qiu only had one recipe which was the juicy steak.
The quality of food that he made using the recipe would definitely be much higher than those normal ones. To a certain extent they weren’t on the same level.
Recipes could bring out the essence of the ingredients. The recipes in the Integrated Network were transmitted through consciousness, so they were much easier to understand than those in word form. As long as he practiced a little he would be able to replicate it. (But if one’s intelligence is lower than 5, forget about it).
He needed to offer 3 types of food so he was still lacking 2.
The only thing he could think about was taking real-life food and then getting it recognized by the Integrated Network. But that would require quite expensive and it didn’t feel economical.
The chests he was opening this time were rarer chests, so it was better if he opened them when he was in his best state.
One would only be rewarded if they put in the effort, that was something that the Dragon-Li knew very well. It knew that it needed to rub a human’s legs to obtain food. A bit of acting cute wouldn’t affect the honor of a king.
As for blood offerings, treasure offerings and human offerings, Yi Qiu paid more attention to treasure offerings as he couldn’t obtain any high quality blood now and he didn’t feel that human blood was considered high quality. After all, even in local legends, only the blood of the young girls and boys were valuable.
Due to the current societal situation, the blood in the blood banks were all not valuable.
Yi Qiu himself fit the criteria but to offer 100L of fresh blood…
Yi Qiu felt that treasure offering was more suitable…
Human offerings were definitely the best but Yi Qiu had no one he could offer up.
There were indeed a few dozen minions in the Barren Gold Mine, although their intelligence was a little lower, they were barely considered intelligent beings.
Regretfully, the living beings in the dungeon card couldn’t be used as human offerings as they had to be living in the main space which was Earth, where Yi Qiu was living.
The Dog-Head Men in the Barren Gold Mine dungeon card couldn’t come, so they were of no use. This method of raising their value was not possible.
The only thing that was left was the treasure offering. Yi Qiu opened his inventory. Apart from a few pieces of gold ore and two chests, the rest were miscellaneous items. Yi Qiu had cleaned his inventory before and he did not recycle items he thought had a little value.
Very quickly, Yi Qiu found an item that could be used as an offering!
Wolf Tail:
Origin: Withered Grass Plains
Item level: 2
Quality: Black
Durability: 25/25
Weight: 0.01kg
Special effect:
Natural Power – Desire Demon Wolf: After use, one will obtain the power of Desire Demon Wolf, Agility adjusted to 15, Charm adjusted to 15.
Sink into desires: Sink into an indescribable joy, causing your senses to drop by 5 points. Due to physique, there is a chance for one to obtain a short period of stunned status or excited status.
Description: A wizard made this for a female servant he liked, to allow her to fight better. Was it fight or “fight” no one actually knew.
This item was Level 2 and its quality was a relatively rarer black color. Speaking of which, it was a decent offering.
Yi Qiu was thinking about dealing with this item at the Duoyuan Galaxy Exchange. This item wasn’t of much use to him because after opening the Gate of Opening he would have 16 Agility and Strength, the only buff this gave him was 15 Charm.
Yi Qiu wasn’t a mage, so charm was of no use to him at all… (What? You say that charm will add persuasion? Look at my fist, let me teach you what is persuasive…)
A 5 point drop in Senses was fatal, after all, Yi Qiu’s Reflex Dodge, etc., skills were affected by Senses.
Due to the item descripton, Yi Qiu guessed that this item was for one to have an exciting time…
Cough, so those mages were people who knew how to play…
”Please confirm if you will use this item: Wolf Tail as item offered, please notice that the item will totally disappear!”
”Confirm!”
After Yi Qiu confirmed it, there was a pale light that appeared on the tail. Yi Qiu threw it to the ground.
The ground was made of brick and it could take high temperatures, so Yi Qiu wasn’t afraid of it being burned.
The Wolf Tail was quickly covered by the spreading flame. Yi Qiu suddenly saw a luster of a white wolf, it glanced at Yi Qiu and howled.
Yi Qiu couldn’t hear anything but looking at it, the howl seemed sad but also arrogant.
In the end, the wolf disappeared in the flames. The tail totally disappeared and only a grey and white flame was silently burning.
Yi Qiu suddenly understood, he needed to place his hand into the fire…
Yi Qiu stretched out his right hand. He hesitated when he was about to touch it, changing to his left hand…
”Hong!” When Yi Qiu touched the flame that seemed to not actually be hot, suddenly there was a loud explosion in his brain!
It was as heavy as the bell of the temple but with the echoing effect in a cave. He could see ancient ancestors walking about, who turned into modern people singing and drinking… A thick ancient scroll flew passed his eyes. His Bloodline Power was implanting memories in his mind through a special method, allowing him to comprehend many things…
What was the act of offering? It had many thousands of years of history…
”Your treasure offering ceremony has ended, based on the item you offered, you obtained the following buffs:
1. Luck value +5 (lasting 1 hour):
2. Luck value permanently increases by 1!”
Yi Qiu touched his bald head excitedly. One must know that luck was hard to raise, even free stat points couldn’t be used on luck!
If it wasn’t for Yi Qiu’s Bloodline Ability (Clarity), he wouldn’t even know what his luck was.
Considering his original 10 points, the permanent increase made it 11. Along with the temporary 5, he had an hour of 16 Luck!
He excitedly took out the dungeon clear chest and pressed…
”Will you open Barren Gold Mine – Dungeon Clear Chest?”
”Yes!”
”You obtained 1000 Integrated Network Coins.”
”You obtained Bloodline Material: Dragon Bloodline Dog-Head Man!”
An eye-catching golden light shone so bright that Yi Qiu found it hard to open his eyes. After taking a look at the infomation on his retina screen, he took out the Dungeon Chest of the Validated!
