Undying Warlord

389 Miraculous Flower of Opportunity

To Dilan, it felt like buying the Artifact of Traction was a must.

He might have to work tirelessly to procure the necessary Essence Points but Dilan was pretty sure that it would be worth it.

"If I pick up some rare treasures from the abandoned islands, it should be possible to sell them for some profit, right?" Dilan wondered, not exactly sure if the Essence Shop would allow him to sell something that was not extremely valuable.

The only truly valuable thing, Dilan could think of was the object that generated the high pulling force. It was located on top of the abandoned island's mountain and Dilan was pretty sure that the Blazing Spinosaurus had protected it for some reason.

'As long as it hasn't been destroyed, I might be able to make use of this thing!' He concluded before he set off to the center of the abandoned island.

In a short time, Dilan climbed up and reached the top of the mountain, where he saw a single flower bud on the mountain top. It was not large and it had yet to blossom. However, what Dilan could detect was that its petals were silver with a blackish undertone outlining the petals' borders.

For a moment, he reconsidered harvesting the flower, only until he received a system notification that made him halt.

[[Miraculous Flower of Opportunity] Lower Heavenly treasure

Time until blooming -26 hours-

Consuming the blossomed Miraculous Flower of Opportunity increases a random stat by 150 Units permanently.

The consumer will also gain the chance to awake a Hidden Speciality!]]

[The Miraculous Flower of Opportunity should only be consumed outside the abandoned island due to external factors such as the potent energy the consumption of the Lower Heavenly treasure will release. Unfathomable existences will be attracted!]

[Transfer fee for the Miraculous Flower of Opportunity is 2,000,000,000 Essence Points!]

While reading through the notifications that popped up in front of Dilan, he frowned a bit.

"Overpowered…" That was the only thing Dilan could say at first before he started to frown deeply.

Protecting the Miraculous Flower of Opportunity until it was ripe was one thing but paying another 2 billion Essence Points on top of the 2.5 billion Essence Points he already needed was… not exactly easy.

Dilan's frown deepened but he knew very well that he needed this treasure.

In fact, an increase of 150 Units was likely to exceed the status capacity he could reach as a Tier-2 existence. If the Cursed Blessing [Will of the Primordial] wouldn't provide him with some special service, his status capacity as Tier-2 existence would be at around 200 Units, while others would only be able to reach 150 Units as Tier-2 existences.

That simply meant the Miraculous Flower of Opportunity couldn't unleash its full power when Dilan would use it.

'But the stats are only a small portion of what this treasure truly stands for…Hidden Speciality…I wonder what I could awaken?' Dilan pondered with gleaming eyes.

He knew that he wanted to get his hands on the Miraculous Flower of Opportunity, and the Artifact of Traction.

However, paying the transfer fee for both would cost him a fortune.

"That just means, I will have to kill a bunch of monsters during the last Night Invasion!" Dilan cleared his throat and accessed the Essence Shop to make a few particular purchases.

First of all he was in desperate need of the "Indestructible Body" that lasted for the next 27 hours, which was the time he had left inside the abandoned Island.

This cost him 2.7 million Essence Points but it was necessary to own it because it allowed him to wield Tier-2 treasures, including the accessories he had purchased not too long ago.

After he purchased the Indestructible body, Dilan also purchased temporary treasure upgrades to upgrade all the pieces of Hyel Destructo, and the Cursed Dagger Xealtron for 27 hours as well.

This cost him a total of 12,150,000 Essence Points, but that was also fine with Dilan because his stats reached a threshold where he could easily fight every type of Tier-3 monster, and even Tier-4 monsters as long as he used some abilities.

The abilities of every piece of the Hyel Destructo Armor set were also increased, which made it easier for Dilan to be confident in fighting against several Sea Serpents if that were to be necessary.

There was only one particular disadvantage that prevented Dilan from properly wielding Xealtron immediately; he had to use other means to increase his Health stats by 49 Units to meet the special requirement of possessing 400 Health Units to wield it!

[[Xealtron] <Cursed> <Gold Tier-2> → <Platinum Tier-3>

[+100 Strength], [+100 Agility] → [+300 Strength], [+300 Agility]

[Headring of Hyel Insight] <Platinum Tier-1>→ <Platinum Tier-2>

[+20 Mana] →[+80 Mana]

[Gloves of Destructo and Power] <Platinum Tier-1>→ <Platinum Tier-2>

[+20 Strength], [+10 Mana] →[+60 Strength] [+20 Mana]

[Boots of Hyel Space] <Platinum Tier-1>→ <Platinum Tier-2>

[+30 Agility] →[+100 Agility]

[Chestplate of Hyel Strength and Endurance] <Platinum Tier-1>→ <Platinum Tier-2>

[+10 Strength], [+30 Health] → [+30 Strength], [+100 Health]

[Trousers of Hyel Gravitation] <Platinum Tier-1> → <Platinum Tier-2>

[+20 Strength], [+20 Health], [+20 Stamina], [+20 Agility], [+20 Mana]

Dilan was pretty satisfied with the stats even if some of them seemed a bit odd to him. In the end, he was more than happy with the gains he made with the temporary upgrade that cost him almost 15 million Essence points.

The stat augmentation from Xealtron was shown in the Log of the Ancient but Dilan couldn't feel the reinforcement in his strength because he was not able to wield the weapon without meeting the special requirement.

This would have been a big problem if it was not for the fact that Dilan was prepared for this!

"Buy the Artifact of Traction!" Dilan ordered with a knowing smile on his face.

1,000,000,000 Essence Points were deducted from his finances and a small hand-sized shield manifested in front of him.

It had a unique form and was shaped to look like a white and golden flame.

Dilan knew that the Artifact of Traction looked like this but he hadn't expected it to be so tiny.

However, that was of no concern because Dilan stretched out his hand to hold the Artifact of Traction tightly.

"Allow me to become stronger, little friend!" He exclaimed loudly before he pushed the Artifact of Traction towards his chest.

Without any resistance, the Artifact of Traction turned into countless particles as it touched his chest and a large number of messages flooded him all of a sudden.

[Artifact of Traction has been detected. The Origin ability [Regeneration] desires to devour the Artifact of Traction!]

[The Artifact of Traction requests to fuse with the Origin ability [Regeneration]! It asks the host to hurry up and procure enough Essence Points to pay the transfer fee. It cannot wait anymore!]

Dilan gave a wry smile upon reading the messages but he accepted everything.

"Just do whatever you guys want as long as I get the best result out of it. Whether that is a fusion or someone getting devoured!" He declared, just to receive a sudden notification.

[A temporary fusion has been initiated between the host's Origin ability and the Artifact of Traction. 360 minutes until the fusion has been completed.

If the host is not in possession of enough Essence Points after the abyss-difficulty advancement mission has been completed, the Artifact of Traction will be removed by force! This may injure the host's Soul!]
