From now on, please call me the Emperor of Luck!
Chen Ming's current attribute panel could only be described as outrageous.
His five basic attributes were all in the triple digits, and his health bar was even approaching five digits.
"These attributes are almost comparable to when I completed the first Advancement Trial in my previous life."
Muttering softly, a smile couldn't help but form on Chen Ming's lips.
At the same time, as his level broke through level 10,
the Hell Skeleton Knight also underwent its first evolution.
The Soul Fire within its skull began to expand frantically, the Undead Warhorse beneath it let out bursts of neighs, and dense Undead Power permeated around it as its blood-red eyes surged within the gray mist.
[Ding! Your summon [Hell Skeleton Knight] has successfully evolved into a black iron grade boss — Undead Lord.]
[Undead Lord] (black iron grade boss)
[Level: Level 12 (Consistent with the summoner's level).]
[black iron grade boss Template Bonus: Max HP +5000, Physical/Magic Defense +50, All Damage Received -100.]
[HP: 75,000/75,000.]
[Strength: 300.]
[Agility: 200.]
[intelligence: 150.]
[stamina: 350.]
[Spirit: 300.]
[physical attack: 600.]
[magic attack power: 300.]
[Physical Defense: 525.]
[Magic Defense: 450.]
[Skill 1: Undead Trample Lv2. (Omitted)]
[Skill 2: Evil Spirit's Favor Lv1. (Omitted)]
[Skill 3: Indomitable Will: Passive Skill (Omitted)]
[Skill 4: Frenzy (Omitted).]
[Skill 5: Undead Sting.]
[Additional Affix: Undead Sovereign (Gold).]
[Description: A high-ranking undead creature from the Underworld.]
...
"It evolved directly into a boss!"
A smile appeared on Chen Ming's face.
With the support of the gold affix [Undead Sovereign], the Undead Lord possessed infinite growth potential; if Chen Ming became a god in the future, it would also become a god alongside him.
"Not just it—with the Heart of Control, once I become a god, all the summons and pets under my command will become gods as well."
"At that time, I will possess a literal Legion of Gods."
Chen Ming was in a great mood. He checked the time, flipped onto the back of the Ice Emperor Wolf King, and slowly headed back toward Silver Dragon Village.
...
Silver Dragon Village.
Chen Ming immediately went to Randall's small wooden hut.
Without any nonsense,
he directly threw out the half-corpse of the Lair Lizard Lord.
"This is the beast."
Randall trembled all over until he shed tears, and it took a full moment before he gradually calmed down.
"Thank you, player from another world," Randall said with sincere gratitude after calming down.
He then handed a treasure chest along with a gemstone to Chen Ming.
[Ding! You have completed the quest: Randall's Revenge. Rewards: Cooling Stone (gold grade), Lucky Treasure Chest (silver grade), Experience +5000, Gold Coins +10,000.]
"You probably don't need this half-corpse anymore, right?" Chen Ming asked, pointing to the half-corpse of the Lair Lizard Lord on the ground.
"You can take it," Randall nodded.
Chen Ming immediately summoned the Ice Emperor Wolf King.
The Ice Emperor Wolf King feasted and quickly devoured the remaining half of the Lair Lizard Lord's corpse.
[Ding! Your summon [Ice Emperor Wolf King] has devoured the Lair Lizard Lord's corpse (1/2). Bloodline Growth +7%, Max HP +1500, All Stats +15.]
As the prompt popped up before his eyes, Chen Ming said goodbye to Randall and turned to leave.
[Cooling Stone]
[Quality: gold grade.]
[Effect: Use on a designated skill to reduce its cooldown time by 20%.]
[Description: A product of alchemy!]
...
"Enhancement, Enchantment!"
Chen Ming decisively activated his talent.
Although the Cooling Stone was only a gold grade item, its effect was quite good.
With a thought from Chen Ming, a faint light flew out and landed on the Cooling Stone in his hand.
[Ding! You have used your Forbidden Talent on the target [Cooling Stone], obtaining a Tier 3 enhancement upgrade.]
[Congratulations! You have obtained the item — Cooling Stone (Epic-grade).]
[Ding! You have used your Forbidden Talent on the target [Cooling Stone], successfully enchanting it with the purple affix: Mega Evolution.]
[Cooling Stone]
[Quality: Epic-grade.]
[Effect: Use on a designated skill to reduce its cooldown time by 70%.]
[Additional Affix: Mega (Purple): Increases skill quality by one rank.]
[Description: A peak product of alchemy.]
...
A 70% cooldown reduction, and it could even increase the target skill's quality by one rank.
Chen Ming's eyes lit up as he crushed the Cooling Stone in his hand.
Target: Flame Incineration World-Ending Arrow.
[Ding! You have used a [Cooling Stone] (Epic-grade) on the target [Flame Incineration World-Ending Arrow]. Skill cooldown reduced by 70%.]
[The Mega Evolution effect has been activated. Your skill [Flame Incineration World-Ending Arrow] has been upgraded to Legendary-Grade.]
As the system notification finished, Chen Ming quickly looked at his skill panel.
[Flame Incineration World-Ending Arrow Lv1 (Legendary-Grade): Fires a fire-attribute magic arrow condensed from the Flame Law, dealing physical attack x 1500% physical damage + magic attack power x 1000% magic damage, ignoring 80% of the enemy's physical/magic defense and 80% fire resistance.]
[Additional Affix: Flame Demon (Purple): Causes the enemy to enter a Burning state, deducting 1% of the enemy's max HP every second for 10 seconds.]
[Skill Cooldown: 9 minutes.]
[Cost: 2500 Mana.]
...
After upgrading to Legendary-Grade, the overall effect of Flame Incineration World-Ending Arrow remained the same,
but the damage had surged by a huge margin.
1500% physical damage and 1000% magic damage!
It could also ignore 80% of the enemy's physical and magic defense.
And the cooldown time had been reduced from the original 30 minutes to just 9 minutes.
Compared to most Legendary-Grade skills that had cooldowns of ten hours or more,
the 9-minute cooldown of Flame Incineration World-Ending Arrow was simply heaven-defying.
Chen Ming was in a great mood as he turned his gaze to the treasure chest in his hand.
A smile couldn't help but form on his lips again.
Treasure chests were simply too compatible with his talent's ability.
Enhance the chest once, and then enhance the item inside after opening it.
A silver grade chest could at least yield a Platinum-grade item.
With good luck, it might even yield a divine artifact directly.
[Lucky Treasure Chest]
[Quality: silver grade.]
[Prompt: The items in this chest depend on the opener's Luck attribute.]
[Description: Before opening, please bathe, burn incense, and pray devoutly to the Goddess of Luck.]
...
The Luck attribute.
A special hidden attribute independent of the five basic attributes.
Whether it was opening chests or monster drop rates, everything was affected by the Luck attribute to some extent.
People with high Luck attributes would find everything going their way, even picking up treasure chests while just walking down the road.
In his previous life, there was a player named [Flying Powerpuff Girl] who awakened an SSS-rank talent related to the Luck attribute at the start.
From the moment she entered the game, she encountered various opportunities constantly, eventually becoming one of the top ten strongest beings on Blue Star with ease.
Of course, if your Luck attribute was low, you were in for some bad luck.
Opening treasure chests would result in empty boxes.
Buying instant noodles and finding no seasoning packet.
Even getting water stuck between your teeth while drinking.
For those with low Luck attributes, these things were just everyday occurrences.
In fact, some particularly unlucky people might even be hit by a falling meteor while walking down the street.
Chen Ming didn't hesitate and decisively used his talent on the treasure chest in his hand.
[Ding! You have used your Forbidden Talent on the target [Lucky Treasure Chest], obtaining a Tier 2 enhancement upgrade.]
[Congratulations! You have obtained the chest — Lucky Treasure Chest (Enhanced Version) (Platinum-grade).]
[Ding! You have used your Forbidden Talent on the target [Lucky Treasure Chest], successfully enchanting it with the purple affix: Lucky Treasure Chest.]
When he saw that familiar purple affix, Chen Ming knew he was set.
[Affix: Lucky Treasure Chest (Purple): When opening the chest, Luck attribute temporarily +999...]
"Open!"
With a thought from Chen Ming,
the lid of the treasure chest automatically popped open.
[Ding! You have opened the Lucky Treasure Chest.]
[Congratulations! You have obtained the special equipment — luck badge (Platinum-grade).]
[luck badge]
[Quality: Platinum-grade.]
[Level: Special Equipment. None.]
[Durability: ∞/∞.]
[Luck Attribute: +5.]
[Special Effect 1: Monster kill drop rate +1%.]
[Special Effect 2: 0.5% chance to trigger a random lucky event; the higher the Luck attribute, the more generous the rewards from the lucky events will be.]
[Description: A special badge containing the blessing of the Goddess of Luck. Wear it, and good luck will follow you continuously.]
...
"This time I've really hit the jackpot!"
"From today onwards, please call me the Luck King!"
As a hidden attribute, increasing the Luck attribute was extremely difficult.
Items that could provide Luck attributes were all priced at astronomical levels.
In his previous life, Chen Ming had spent over a billion gold coins just for a gold grade special item that provided +3 Luck.
