The large-scale Gnoll hunting activity initiated by Murphy ultimately yielded over 300 hunting keys during the final tally, with such a massive distribution itself being a symbol of “Quality”.
Although the officials had not published the specific reward list for the hunting chests, the fact that they could give out so many keys at once already indicated that it would likely be difficult to open truly good items from them. Even if the developnt team was “full of sincerity” this ti and actually put so extraordinary things in the boxes, the probability would basically be like winning the lottery.
Therefore, the fact that everyone was so happy with the twilight settlent was more of a symbolic affirmation of their “efforts” and a sense of achievent.
Of course, such joyful excitent was certainly also related to the players’ “crowd ntality” personality.
Little players are quite strange creatures. When they gather together, they naturally beco happy as the crowd grows, and the more people there are, the happier they beco, and the more people there are, the more fearless they beco.
Another fascinating characteristic is that the more of them there are, the more their opinions start to “influence reality”, forcing the deity known as “Dog Planner” to seriously consider their views and make corresponding adjustnts to the “rules of the world”.
When the number of little players reaches a certain level, a “leader” naturally erges among them. And when the leader organizes the little players under their command into a battle-ready army, they begin to launch a large-scale “expedition” outward!
The target doesn’t matter, as long as they’re happy!
If there are gains in addition to happiness, that’s even better!
This subtle and peculiar characteristic from various perspectives always made Murphy think of an equally crowd-loving, equally fearless of death, and equally happy-go-lucky every day amazing race.
With this strong sense of deja vu, Murphy and Maxim quietly entered the Adventurer’s Guild camp.
They were there to deliver items.
In Maxim’s Spirit Bag were 10 “Clan Warrior Chests” carefully prepared by Murphy.
These were genuine chests this ti, handcrafted by Tris and imbued with spirit magic to emit a faint glow, making them more in line with the players’ idea of a “treasure chest”.
In addition, there were “Grand Duke’s Guard” sets for the top three.
These were actually based on the clan guard set, with over five powerful enchantnts added by Enchantnt Master Tris, giving them a qualitative leap in combat power. At the sa ti, Count Andrei, with his exceptionally high artistic skills, personally designed new decorations for these armors and painted them in a more luxurious gold and red color.
This was to serve as “top-tier equipnt” with triple anings of collectible value, practical significance, and family status, to be distributed to a small number of players as a symbol of the “power party”.
Murphy also had an exquisitely decorated weapon case in his hand, containing a vampire war sword found in Salrokdar’s private collection.
The Masterwork Sovereign Quality already surpassed 99% of the blacksmiths’ works on the continent, and with its accompanying backstory and noble yellow text description, it had entered the realm of “divine weapons” in the continent’s legends from various perspectives.
This was to be awarded as a reward to the first place winner of this Gnoll great hunt.
“That new set of armor of yours is not bad. Just from the appearance, you can tell it’s definitely a divine weapon, and from the style, it seems to co from Greenleaf Island,” Guildmaster Natalie remarked, examining the “Flawed Greenleaf Lion” set on Murphy as he entered the tent. The vampire lord shrugged without further explanation, but Natalie still solemnly reminded him:
“However, I sense a tainted power that destroys life in the sword cane you’re holding. You’d better use it carefully.”
“Thanks for the reminder, I will,” Murphy smiled. As Maxim was putting things away, he looked at the bustling players in front and asked quietly:
“So, have those two ‘treasures’ been opened yet?”
“Not yet, I’m also waiting for the lucky ones to appear.”
Talking about this, the previously uninterested Black-Hearted Witch Hunter imdiately perked up and said enthusiastically:
“I thought this would be boring, but it turns out your understanding of them is indeed superior to mine. Seeing the exaggerated joy and expressions of these warriors when they get high-value items is like watching an exciting stage play.” ŕἈ𐌽őВЁ𝘚
“Hahahaha! Cheche is truly heaven’s chosen one! Look! I got sothing good!”
Before Natalie could finish speaking, a chorus of wailing erupted from the crowd in front. Invincible Tyrannosaurus Cheche from the student party waved the red saddle in his hand and shouted:
“A limited item! A masterwork saddle that increases riding speed!”
“Hey, you’re a vampire! Wake up, you can fly! You don’t need this thing at all, I’ve never seen you guys ride horses. It’s useless to you! Stop grinning like an idiot, co on, let’s talk business, sell this thing to . I just happen to want to decorate my little Stinky Treasure with it. I’ll offer 50 gold coins!”
“Shaless! Taking advantage of a student who doesn’t know the value, right? I’ll offer 70! Sell it to , I’m about to take the riding test for the winged cavalry and I really need this thing.”
Several guys argued in a frenzy nearby, but Cheche was still imrsed in the joy of having gotten sothing good, finally proving his “European” bloodline.
He certainly had no intention of selling this item.
Although he was a vampire and rarely rode horses, he did have a demon-hunting warhorse being fostered at the Witch Hunter’s stable. He wanted to equip his warhorse with this beautiful item to make it the most dazzling in the stable, thus attracting the attention of those haughty mares.
He was already a pitiful single dog, so he couldn’t let his mount “stay bachelor” along with him, could he?
“Really, I could be happy all day watching this kind of thing, and never get bored,” Murphy said to Maxim beside him, who had a peculiar expression, with his hands behind his back:
“This kind of purest joy is the most heart-touching. Maxim, do you rember when was the last ti you were so happy?”
“It should be when I was proven worthy upon accepting the Embrace?” Maxim thought for a mont and replied:
“But such pure joy is indeed rare in my life. I have to say, our warriors are always easily satisfied in this regard. As you evaluated, they don’t even want money. They are truly the most easily maintained group of quality rcenaries on this continent.”
“Hmm, I think you should also experience your own joy,” Murphy said:
“Just when I was looking for that nad blade, the Griffin Greatsword for Kudel, I found another nad blade that you could use.”
“No, Master, I don’t need it,” Maxim shook his head and refused:
“I’m a Transian. I will find usable items for myself. The weapons you collect should be used for more appropriate scenarios, such as rewarding your warriors. Their loyalty has a price, obviously not as pure as my priceless loyalty.”
“Ah, this is the first ti I’ve heard a vampire’s self-praise. It really gives goosebumps,” Natalie comnted:
“So Mr. Maxim is also such a smooth talker? I think your skill in self-praise is enough to sha those sycophants in the Louis dynasty court.”
“I’m just telling the truth, and if it makes you happy, my master did indeed once give a nickna called ‘Smooth-talking Maxim’,” Maxim shrugged, about to retort, when he heard Murphy suddenly say:
“Soone’s about to open a treasure, quick look!”
“???” Natalie’s expression changed slightly, she said:
“We placed them randomly, how do you know who will open it?”
“By marking them, my dear Guildmaster,” Murphy put his hand to his forehead and sighed:
“Did you really think this kind of thing was completely random? You’re too naive. Since it’s a sacred object of the Avalon God, wouldn’t it be a waste of Avalon God’s glory if it fell into the hands of a vampire?
As a ssenger of God, you should learn to proclaim God’s majesty. Do I really need to teach you about this?”
“We’ve got a hit!” An excited roar rang out from the edge of the camp. The ow King’s group of seven was almost ecstatic now!
Because just now, Frostfang Claw, who had already opened 13 chests and received 7 bottles of high-quality sword oil, 3 bundles of bandages, and 3 sets of Witch Hunter veteran outfit parts, finally proved his quality as a “little red hand”.
When the 14th chest was opened, a swirling green light had already proven the ergence of a treasure.
Even Frostfang himself was startled.
After all, based on his previous observations, the highest Quality items that could be opened from these hunting chests were no more than Masterwork Veteran level. Although not bad, it proved that everyone’s previous discussions were still correct, that these large-scale distributed chests would probably not hide particularly good things.
However, reality quickly slapped them in the face, and with this big slap proved that luck was definitely not an idle legend.
Amidst the ecstatic cheers of the Black Hand Seven nearby, Frostfang reached into the chest and pulled out the wooden one-handed war hamr.
For a dexterity-specialized thief and Rogue like him, this thing was really quite heavy, but its design was very elegant and sacred. The one-handed hamr was made of wood overall, with erald green and very regular wood grain accents. The hamr head, carved into the shape of a hunting falcon, one of the symbols of the Avalon Church, was covered in silver sacred inscriptions.
Those were clearly handwritten and then etched using a special technique. The elegant patterns alone were enough to prove this thing’s “artistic value”.
Its sense of power also ca from the erald green glow entwined around it, as well as the delicate vines and constantly blooming and withering flowers wrapped around the handle and bottom of the hamr head – the “equipnt Special Effect”.
Just looking at this thing, even without identification, one could tell it must have an extraordinary origin.
Most importantly, when it ca to appraisal, Frostfang Claw was also an expert. He could tell at a glance that this thing had been completed at least 100 years ago, and the wear on the wooden warhamr indicated it was an extraordinary antique.
“Here you go!”
Frostfang Claw looked at the little players constantly gathering around to “absorb his luck”, and his social anxiety was about to flare up. He quickly tossed the warhamr to ow King and whooshed into the shadows.
Damn! There were so many people, he felt like he would be trampled to death by this crowd at any mont.
But ow King didn’t mind. In front of everyone, he activated item identification:

Now, it has been passed down to your hands!
Please make good use of this weapon woven with love and protection, and do not let it be tainted with dust it should not have.】
“I thought this thing looked familiar, so it turns out it’s what I saw the old knight use in the Blood Vulture Halls before,” said ow King.
ow King caressed this weapon that could be called a “good thing” in every sense, and sighed with so regret.
This was a White Knight’s professional weapon, and he was destined to beco a Red Knight, so under the shining gaze of other players, he handed it to the bewildered Led More Than Three to Five Pecks, who was the tank in his team.
“Holy shit! You’re just giving this to ? But I don’t have enough money in my pocket, should I pledge next month’s salary?”
Led More Than Three to Five Pecks still didn’t dare to take it.
After all, the attributes of this thing were too overpowered.
It’s no exaggeration to say that this is basically the first “super weapon” to be unveiled in the ga so far, even a bit stronger than the sacred blade in ow King’s hand.
“When I tell you to take it, just take it. What’s with all the nonsense?”
ow King glared and stuffed the warhamr into Led More Than Three to Five Pecks’ hand, saying:
“Can’t you see? This thing is a set, it’s ant for defenders in the first place. Didn’t you say you’ve already confird that you want to follow the path of the White Knight’s protection in the future?
Just take it.”
“Yeah, when he tells you to take it, just take it,”
Electronic Succubus Old Tune laughed and put his hand on Led More Than Three to Five Pecks’ shoulder, teasing:
“This is worth way more than any salary. After getting this thing, you’d feel too ashad to refuse anything ow King asks you to do.
You should be grateful ow King isn’t interested in n.”
“F**k! The way you say it makes a bit scared.”
Led More Than Three to Five Pecks cursed harshly, but finally reached out and took the warhamr that looked light but was actually quite hefty.
“Brothers! Since we got Undefeated from the box, the heavy shield ‘Unbreakable’ should be in other boxes too. The developers wouldn’t split up a set into two events, right?
Our Big Bird Spin Spin Spin team is here to ask other brothers if they want to sell the heavy shield Unbreakable, price negotiable!”
ow King shouted at the top of his lungs, and the other players imdiately got excited.
There were still at least 200 treasure chests that hadn’t been opened, and it was already confird that another super weapon was definitely hidden among them. Now it was just a matter of seeing who would get it.
ow King’s shout added fuel to the already hot “unboxing event”, and the others howled as they continued this exciting activity.
After they left, Frostfang Claw reappeared.
He looked at Led More Than Three to Five Pecks, who was grinning stupidly while hugging the warhamr, and thought this guy really hadn’t seen much of the world.
Hey, see these two daggers on my waist? Sa Quality as your crappy thing, and I stole them from the BOSS myself. You don’t see showing off like that, do you?
“Brother Frostfang, hurry up and open the boxes,”
Day One No Fap and Black Stockings Under the Keyboard urged from the side:
“Maybe that Unbreakable shield is in these remaining boxes. Oh man, we’re really impressed by your luck, it’s amazing!
You must be the legendary chosen one, right?”
“But I suspect you might not even have seasoning packets in your instant noodles for the next few months,”
Shrimp Catcher said sourly from the side. Frostfang Claw didn’t mind.
He opened all the remaining treasure chests, but it seed his good luck had run out. He couldn’t get the Unbreakable shield, which was sowhat disappointing.
It seems this little red hand wasn’t almighty after all. Probability theory still exists after all.
“It’s out! It’s out! Lady Aqua got it!”
Little Ashina’s scream broke ow King’s contemplation in the next second.
He turned his head abruptly and saw the “number one beauty among players” Lady Aqua struggling to pull an oak shield out of the box.
Her Strength attribute was clearly not enough, and she couldn’t lift this thing at all. Fatal Orchid Huahua had to co over and help her.
“It’s over!”
ow King felt like he’d been struck by lightning for a mont.
He had made up his mind to complete this weapon set for his brother, but why did the girls who didn’t lack money at all get the shield? How was he supposed to complete the set now? Even selling everything he owned wouldn’t be enough.
Led More Than Three to Five Pecks also noticed ow King’s expression. He bit his lip and ca over to say:
“Why don’t we just sell this hamr? Isn’t this what we do business for? The ga is fun, but real life is still more important.
If we sell this thing, you won’t have to worry about at least half a year’s salary for the brothers, and you won’t have to be so anxious and upset all the ti.”
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
ow King rebuked without thinking:
“This thing coming to us is all about fate. If you give it away, wouldn’t that waste all the effort our brothers put in?”
“Yeah, we’re not at the point where we can’t afford to eat,”
Black Stockings Under the Keyboard shook his head and said:
“We still need you for that thing ow King discussed with Brother Stick, and the girls don’t lack money. I guess they’re not interested.”
“Don’t worry about it, I’ll go talk to them,”
ow King said through gritted teeth as he went to negotiate. However, the process went surprisingly smoothly.
The shield bearer of the girl team, Fatal Orchid Huahua, had no intention of joining the Avalon Church at all, so she couldn’t use this faith item. But because Lady Aqua opened it, they exchanged the Crimson Witch’s staff that ow King had obtained earlier and very readily gave up the shield.
But seeing ow King’s pained expression, it was clear there must have been other additional conditions.
“Hmm, the joy is gone,”
Guildmaster Natalie shook her head with so regret as she saw Led More Than Three to Five Pecks complete the set of weapons left by her father, saying:
“It’s a pity, I was hoping to see more of these warriors’ exaggerated expressions of joy when blessed by good fortune.”
“You have to understand that this joy stems from your gift. It’s like giving a rose will also stain your fingers with its fragrance. The pleasure doesn’t disappear.
It always transfers from the unlucky ones to my face.”
Murphy revealed a relaxed smile. He looked at the 10 clan treasure chests behind him and said:
“You’ve already gotten your joy, now it’s my turn.”
