Chapter 81: Time-Limited Event: Dragon's Blood
[Time-Limited Event: Dragon's Blood]
[From a remote border town, a female lord named Moliel drank the divine dragon blood from a Dragon's Blood Bottle, transforming into a giant dragon and continuously expanding her ambitions. However, all dragons cannot tolerate such a heretic, even the undead Bone Dragons.]
[This event will award points for killing dragons, and the event will continue until Moliel dies, flees, or the dragons give up.]
[After the event starts, killing dragons will have a chance to drop special materials like dragon blood and dragon bones. If these materials are used in the construction of buildings, they will grant dragon-related attributes or effects.]
[After the event starts, killing dragons will always drop a treasure chest, with the quality of the chest depending on the dragon's strength.]
[This time-limited event will have a leaderboard, with the final ranking based on the points earned.]
[1st Place: High-Grade Treasure: Dragon's Blood Bottle]
[2nd Place: High-Grade Treasure: Dragon's Heart]
[3rd Place: High-Grade Treasure: Dragon's Head]
[4th to 10th Place: Choose one High-Grade Treasure: Dragon Tooth Crown, Dragon Eye Ring, Dragon Bone Greaves, Dragon Eye Ring, Crimson Dragon Sword, Dragon Shield, Dragon Armor, Dragon Wing Cloak, Dragon Tooth Necklace]
Qin Muye suddenly realized that this event was quite twisted, especially the Dragon's Blood Bottle for first place. The problem started with this item, and now it was being given away directly.
He didn't have a clear memory of what the Dragon's Heart was, but he remembered the treasures for 4th to 10th place. Collecting all nine pieces could synthesize the Dragon King's Divine Power, which was guaranteed to be at the divine artifact level.
"Can give it a try, but don't get too hopeful," Qin Muye thought. He knew he had no chance of making the leaderboard this time. Last time was luck, but this time it would take real strength.
Moreover, since it was related to dragons, the current top-ranked True Dragon Emperor would likely take everything.
His territory was the Holy Dragon Nest, and he was undoubtedly the center of dragon power.
Additionally, the Dragon's Blood Bottle could transform one's race. Drinking it would make one a dragon, and it might even be reusable.
"The strength of dragons is debatable, but buying some dragon corpses isn't out of the question."
The rule that corpses disappear after death had been removed, so he could negotiate with other lords to buy them.
He wouldn't participate in the event, but he could spend some resources to acquire the corpses.
Apart from necromancer-type lords, few others would be interested in buying corpses.
The chat channel was unusually lively.
[True Dragon Emperor: For this time-limited event, I hope no one will compete for the first place. Give me a face. If anyone is fortunate enough to make the leaderboard and is willing to sell the Dragon's Heart, Dragon's Head, or other dragon treasures, please contact me. I will not be stingy with rewards.]
[Lord of the Dead: I need some dragon corpses. If the price is reasonable, please list them on the trading platform.]
These two messages caught Qin Muye's attention, but it was normal. One was related to dragons, and the other needed corpses to summon undead.
At the very least, they would be Bone Dragons or higher, so they would likely benefit the most.
[: Buying dragon corpses. Species should be rare, and the quantity required is not large. Mainly for collection. Please list directly on the trading platform. Thanks!]
Qin Muye also posted a message to buy corpses, as he needed them anyway.
The surviving lords were all tough and capable, including Qin Muye, who had risen through his own efforts. Their abilities were not to be doubted.
It was uncertain how many dragon corpses would be listed, but for the lords, earning extra resources was always a good thing.
No one would complain about having too many resources, especially since for non-undead factions, the uses for dragon corpses were limited, at most just for food.
Of course, there might be other uses, but there would definitely be someone willing to list them.
"Master, should we participate in the new event? After all, killing dragons can yield special materials like dragon blood and dragon bones," Black Hand respectfully inquired.
Qin Muye shook his head: "If there's an opportunity, we'll participate, but if not, it's fine. This is a time-limited event, and who knows how long that lord who transformed into a dragon can hold on."
"Moreover, the strength of dragons is formidable, and with our current strength, we cannot stand against them. It's better to collect some dragon corpses for research, to see if we can grant you dragon bloodline. Having dragon-blooded spirits would be quite beneficial."
Qin Muye was well aware of his limits and knew which activities he could participate in and which he couldn't.
His territory had indeed grown significantly, but that didn't mean he could act recklessly.
Furthermore, Qin Muye was not someone who enjoyed taking risks. If the opportunity presented itself, he would take it, but he would rather take advantage of others' struggles than engage in a direct confrontation with powerful dragons.
In other words, he was someone who bullied the weak and feared the strong.
"However, we can't just let this opportunity pass. We have another set of bidirectional portals, so you can go and level up. Use these portals as a means of communication. If you encounter anything, you can handle it on the side," Qin Muye said.
Qin Muye's plan was simple: he couldn't stop Mo Xue and Xie Yu from leveling up. He could send them to good places to level up and farm some skeletons. If there was danger or if they wanted to return, they could use one of the portals, and Qin Muye could use the lord's summoning skill to bring them back to the territory.
If they wanted to go back later, he could use the interdimensional portal again.
It was a rather unscrupulous leveling method.
He himself might not need to level up, but his spirit heroes must continue to level up to protect him. The Scholar class itself didn't enhance any combat power, so further leveling wouldn't make much of a difference. It would be better to wait until he made more progress in his spirit research before leveling up. At that point, having a group of high-level spirit heroes and powerful spirit troops to help him level up would be far more comfortable, and he might even gain ten levels in a single battle.
After all, once the hero's level increased, they would no longer fight weaker natives. The stronger the opponent, the more experience they would gain.
"Yes, Master, are you planning to return first?" Black Hand asked.
"Let's return together and rest. This place isn't suitable for leveling up. The Underworld and the Land of the Undead are too harsh, and I'll wait until I upgrade the spirits to 3rd-tier troops before leveling up."
"Besides, my promotion quest still relies on you to fill my ranks. And there will be another hero that you will need to lead."
Qin Muye, after seeing that he had destroyed five 2nd-tier factions, finally spoke.
For Qin Muye, level wasn't the key to becoming stronger; learning and research were.
After all, he was no longer a conventional lord but had achieved his current strength through unconventional means.
