He saw a group of "Dragon Roaming·XX" IDs cheerfully coming up from the underground level.
What caught the eye was not only their uniformly prefixed IDs, but also the spoils of war wrapped in spider silk on their backs!
Among the larger items were harpoons, with as many as a hundred!
Apart from these, there were also copious amounts of leather armor, boots, and various knives and daggers, ranging from protective gear to cold weapons!
From their triumphant posture, it was clear they had fought a satisfying and victorious battle. Judging by the spoils on their backs, Luo Yan didn't even have to think twice to guess their opponents' identity, definitely those shark-n lured in by the Earth Dragon clan!
What he didn't expect was that a combination of a dozen or so skeleton soldiers and three little spiders managed to annihilate a group of shark-n's commanders!
And how did they restrain themselves from bragging on the official forum?
These were not the only things that surprised Luo Yan.
What shocked him even more was that the leading skeleton soldier nad "Dragon Roaming Wanli" was carrying a bronze-grade magic tool!
Even though that thing was just a harpoon.
"Youyou, can you identify the effect of that magic tool?"
Youyou, "No problem, Lord Demon King...but apart from that magic tool, haven't you noticed anything unusual about that player himself?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Yan gave a slight start and indeed noted sothing different about the player.
He saw a wisp of red and black energy winding around the gray-white skeleton, resembling the tentacles of a deep-sea jellyfish.
This scene seed familiar.
A thought crossed Luo Yan's mind and he imdiately opened the player's attribute panel, indeed discovering a hint therein.

"This is... a blessing from the gods?!"
"Exactly!" The floating Youyou nodded vigorously, her face beaming, "Although I'm not sure which deity this blessing's power cos from, it is indeed a divine protection!"
Luo Yan fell into contemplation upon hearing this.
Combining his own experiences, he increasingly believed that the so-called pleasing of the deities might not truly be pleasing so great consciousness, but rely triggering a pre-compiled program—this program automatically rewards those who adhere to certain doctrines or beliefs.
It was like unlocking a ga achievent.
Advancing levels above one's own and achieving victory, with the final reward being an increase in strength... this seed very much like the "God of War" from the First Epoch of the ancient gods.
Compared to the Netherworld God and the Gods of Elents, the God of War was not very well-known, belonging to deities who faded from the lilight in the mid-First Epoch.
Nowadays, few rember him, but the code he left in this world still functions.
Then, what was the purpose of a deity's existence?
While Luo Yan pondered the answer, Dragon Roaming Wanli approached him, bowed respectfully with hands clasped, and reported.
"Respected Lord Demon King, we have encountered a group of shark-man intruders in the labyrinth, numbering about three hundred, and have now completely annihilated them!"
The barely contained grin on his lips showed how proud he felt, and he certainly had the right to be proud.
Luo Yan nodded appreciatively and slowly said,
"You did well, but next ti you encounter such a situation, I hope you first report to or my servant...if you hope to receive a reward."
The implication was clear: you didn't report imdiately, so forget about the reward.
As for the spoils, since you earned them yourself, just keep them...after all, Luo Yan had no use for so many harpoons.
Although it was disappointing not to earn Contribution Value, Dragon Roaming Wanli was not discouraged.
After all, he was not here for the reward; he purely wanted to show off in front of Lord Demon King, to boost his presence sowhat.
He had seen on the forum people saying NPCs have a hidden favorability parater, and it never hurts to show your face in front of the faction boss.
After the report, Dragon Roaming Wanli then took the harpoon off his back.
"Could I ask you to identify this equipnt for ?"
Luo Yan glanced at the harpoon in his hand but said nothing, instead pointing in the direction of the NPC shop.
"Go to the shop for equipnt identification."
"Don't bother with such trifles."
