Chapter 927: Lavish Mission Rewards
Chapter 927: Lavish Mission Rewards
September 25, 2017
In Luoyang City, Lu HaiKong played his 'Army Song' on the mysterious ancient zither for a full thirty minutes.
The thirty-minute performance, combined with the power of the ancient zither, directly dispelled or rather, purified the blood array left by Li Ru and his associates.
At the same time, it also purified the blood-colored array that had invaded the city.
In a way, Lu HaiKong's song could be seen as the saving straw for Luoyang City, rekindling hope for a city once again enveloped in despair.
After finishing the song, Lu HaiKong didn't realize the effect of his music. Although the song's mood was conveyed and was quite impressive, the consumption of his inner strength was also astonishing.
As Lu HaiKong completed the song, he noticed his inner strength was nearly depleted, and he also became aware that his dragon energy had been significantly drained during the performance. This type of consumption was a permanent loss, and it was the first time Lu HaiKong had experienced such a thing.
Of course, Lu HaiKong didn't mind this loss at all. The consumption was worth it to see the surprised and adorable expression on the girl's face.
Just as Lu HaiKong was about to speak, intending to perfectly explain his actions, he was interrupted by system prompts that caught his attention.
Lu HaiKong instinctively opened the system prompts.
You have successfully conquered Luoyang City. Mission evaluation increased.
You have destroyed Dong Zhuo's array. Mission evaluation increased.
You have defeated Dong Zhuo and driven him out of Luoyang City. Mission evaluation increased.
Congratulations! You have completed the 'Feudal Lords Against Dong Zhuo' mission. Your mission performance is rated as 'Elite'. You have gained three mission rewards.
You have successfully driven Dong Zhuo out of Luoyang. The 'Alliance Control' ability has been withdrawn. Mission complete.
Lu HaiKong scanned the system prompts, and for him, the focus was on the last two prompts—the mission rewards and the notification.
Lu HaiKong's gaze lingered on the fourth prompt, a smile forming on his lips. Regarding the rewards for the 'Feudal Lords Against Dong Zhuo' mission, although he hadn't claimed them yet, he was eagerly anticipating them. He was well aware that this type of mission reward would be substantial.
However, what slightly surprised Lu HaiKong was that he hadn't expected the mission to abruptly end at this point.
Upon reflection, it made sense for the system to conclude the mission here, as the plot of the 'Feudal Lords Against Dong Zhuo' typically ends with Dong Zhuo's departure from Luoyang. This situation was exactly what Lu HaiKong wanted.
But what made Lu HaiKong frown slightly was that he hadn't anticipated the system to directly withdraw the 'Alliance Control' ability. This would cause some trouble for Lu HaiKong.
Previously, Lu HaiKong's various domineering actions had already stirred discontent among the feudal lords. If it weren't for the 'Alliance Control' ability, the alliance would have disbanded long ago. Now, without it, losing control of the alliance would be more than just a simple disbandment.
Lu HaiKong knew that many otherworldly lords were coming to Luoyang, each with their own missions. Some sought national treasures and divine weapons, while others aimed to plunder the political and cultural center of Luoyang. The upcoming period would undoubtedly see a large influx of people into Luoyang, leading to various forms of plundering and confusion.
Fortunately, Lu HaiKong was prepared. He was aware that the upcoming situation would be chaotic, and he had already sent his 'Iron Blood' and 'Golden' legions ahead to Luoyang, where they were carrying out tasks that weren't exactly commendable.
However, Lu HaiKong had made arrangements, and now he just needed to reap the rewards of his actions.
As Lu HaiKong looked at the system prompts, his eyes narrowed slightly. Just as he thought he had read them all, he suddenly realized there might be more prompts he hadn't seen.
Title: The Unexpected Treasures
Chapter 1: The Unforeseen Rewards
Lu HaiKong, still in awe of the system prompts, couldn't believe his luck. He had just successfully played the 'Army Song' and achieved purification, receiving a whopping 500,000 experience points in the skill 'Playing the Zither'. This unexpected reward had left him stunned.
Determined to continue his streak, Lu HaiKong played the 'Army Song' again, this time aiming for purification from the '???' technique's rampage in Luoyang. To his delight, he obtained a special zither score.
Feeling adventurous, Lu HaiKong played the 'Army Song' once more, purifying the '???' technique's rampage in Luoyang, and was rewarded with a myth-level treasure chest.
With his confidence soaring, Lu HaiKong played the 'Army Song' one last time, purifying the '???' technique's rampage in Luoyang, and received a unique reward.
Lu HaiKong stared at the four system prompts, completely dumbfounded. The rewards he had received were almost on par with the rewards for the 'Seeking the Marquis' quest, which was usually undertaken by hundreds of people.
The heavens must have favored him, Lu HaiKong thought as he examined the rewards. Just by casually playing the 'Army Song', he had acquired such incredible treasures. The 500,000 experience points in 'Playing the Zither' had directly propelled his skill to the Advanced Peak level, just one step away from the Master level. Not to mention the other three rewards, which were undoubtedly astonishing.
Looking at her rewards, Lu HaiKong noticed the girl's shy expression and couldn't help but feel a sense of happiness, as if blessed by good fortune. Without hesitation, he hugged the girl, who was still unaware of his intentions, and gently nibbled on her delicate forehead.
Surprising her with this sudden move, the girl's face turned red, and she seemed momentarily speechless.
Lu HaiKong, feeling playful, took the first of the four national treasures to the Divine Armory, specifically the Martial Hall.
Divine Stone
(Myth-level)
Description: A treasure born from the essence of heaven and earth's energy, capable of infusing myth-level power into weapons.
Usage Requirements: Master-level Blacksmith
Lu HaiKong's eyes lit up when he saw this treasure, the Divine Stone. He had assumed that national treasures were more for display and reverence, not expecting a consumable item like this. Nonetheless, he was thrilled with this pleasant surprise.
The Divine Stone's attributes caught Lu HaiKong's attention, making his eyes narrow with delight.
Recently, Lu HaiKong had been troubled by weapon issues. His previous weapon, the Primitive Axe, had been shattered in its first encounter with the Demon Soldier. Lu HaiKong had sent it to the Blacksmith Camp, where Master He had expended significant effort and resources to recreate it, now at the Pseudo-Myth level, almost certainly capable of reaching the Myth level upon completion.
However, just as Lu HaiKong thought the Primitive Axe could last longer, he accidentally pitted it against the Demon Soldier's weapon again. This time, it managed to endure a little longer before meeting the same fate of being cleaved in two.
Lu HaiKong had been worrying about his weapon problem when the Divine Stone appeared, directly solving his dilemma.
Smiling, Lu HaiKong put away the Divine Stone and turned his attention to the remaining two national treasures...
