33: The rewards are very generous.
After seeing him, Emilia immediately knelt on one knee, not even bothering to put on her clothes.
Locke nodded in satisfaction.
To be honest, this effect was quite good and met his psychological expectations.
So, he raised his hand, letting Emilia stand up:
"From now on, just try to call me Young Master when we're in front of others."
"Yes, Young Master Locke." Emilia stood up, and with her movements, her chest immediately heaved like a tumultuous wave.
Those overly dazzling headlights forced Locke to avoid their edge and look away.
"Hurry up and put on your clothes; I have things to entrust to you later."
After saying this, Locke stopped paying attention to Emilia and focused his attention back on the rewards given by the mission.
The last one-star double reward gave him the 【Star Slave】 and 【Finger】 skills, both of which were highly practical. This was a two-star mission, so the rewards shouldn't be worse than last time, making him somewhat expectant.
"Open."
As his thoughts shifted, the square red revolving gift box in front of him instantly burst open.
Several items jumped out from it and appeared before Locke's eyes.
【Obtained myriad spectacles】
【Obtained lacrosse mask】
【Obtained winchester】
【Obtained virgins curd X1】
【Obtained Whiteboard Experience Card X1】
"I didn't expect it to actually drop 5 rewards; this is my first time."
Locke examined the five rewards that had dropped from the system and stroked his chin: "It seems my performance on this mission was quite good."
Although two of the rewards were a rifle and an experience card, not the kind of extraordinary items filled with mysterious power or special skills that could directly increase his martial strength, they weren't too bad. After all, he was actually quite in need of both a gun and an experience card.
Besides, the other 3 rewards looked very extraordinary.
This completely met his psychological expectations for a two-star mission.
【myriad spectacles: Crafted from the tentacles shed by some unknown entity. Wearing it, you can see further and also see many things invisible to the naked eye. There is a very small probability of being gazed upon by ***.】
The myriad spectacles were dark red throughout, just as the name suggested. The entire item was covered in red eyes that were constantly rolling around, very Lovecraftian in style.
"This doesn't look like a very friendly item," Locke said, looking at the very uniquely styled red glasses, feeling a bit uneasy: "But if it's a very small probability, I can take them out to try occasionally; I shouldn't be that unlucky."
【lacrosse mask: This is the beloved item of a certain Extraordinary Creature from Crystal Lake. Wearing it allows you to ignore fear and suppress negative emotions, but you will be hated by this entity.】
lacrosse mask, Crystal Lake—he was not unfamiliar with these at all.
Looking at the description, Locke immediately guessed the identity of that Extraordinary Creature: "Isn't this the crazed serial killer Jason? I don't know how the system managed to get his most beloved mask."
But that wasn't important. He had no intention of returning it; after all, what the system gave him was his.
Moreover, if he were to be hated by Jason, he wasn't that afraid; on the contrary, he was somewhat looking forward to what kind of mission it would trigger.
【virgins curd: The breast milk produced by the mother of the Creator in legend. It can instantly heal mental and physical injuries. Consuming more than a certain amount might result in receiving the Virgin's blessing.】
"A life-saving potion? Looks quite good."
Locke had always highly valued life-saving items.
He was very satisfied with this 【virgins curd】 that could heal both mental and physical injuries.
"It's just a pity there's only one drop, otherwise I'd take it out now to taste it."
Of course, he didn't think this just to taste the Virgin's milk; he mainly wanted to see if, after using this item, he could remove the 【death shadow】 and restore his mental state to normal.
【winchester M1894: A lever-action rifle developed and produced by the winchester Repeating Arms Company starting in the 1880s. It feels very good to use.】
He knew this gun; it was indeed a good weapon at times, after all, like a revolver, the chance of it jamming was very small.
Moreover, its firing speed depended on the user's hand speed, which suited him quite well.
As for the 【Whiteboard Experience Card】, the moment Locke obtained it, he used it directly on Classical Boxing.
Because he was currently lacking in close-quarters combat methods, and the performance of Classical Boxing Lv1 was already quite good. If upgraded, it would surely become a very decent method, perhaps not much weaker than his current marksmanship.
As the 【Whiteboard Experience Card】 disappeared, he saw the Classical Boxing, which was previously just at the introductory Lv1, instantly upgrade to Lv3 Mastery.
And in Locke's mind appeared memories of 5 years of training and combat.
After upgrading, Locke casually swung his fist: "Feels pretty good; perhaps even Selene's combat skills aren't necessarily at a higher level than mine now."
After checking all the items, he waved his hand again and put everything into his Personal Space.
At this moment, Emilia had also put on her clothes, covering her snow-white, rounded buttocks under her robes.
"Young Master, I have finished getting ready." Emilia, having put on her noblewoman's dress, bowed slightly to him, performing the proper posture of a Star Slave.
Locke nodded, stood up, didn't say much else, and then led her out, preparing to leave the train.
"By the way, Master, Emilia obtained a secret codex this time that can help Vampires increase their strength. Would you like to try cultivating it?"
Just as he stood up, before he had even taken a step, Emilia took out a black tome filled with dark vibes and handed it to him.
In the center of the secret codex's cover was a circular hexagram symbol, and at the very top, a blood-red moon hung high.
It certainly looked extraordinary on the outside.
"secret codex?" Locke took it with some confusion, because this hadn't existed in the original work: "Could it be that my appearance caused the original plot to change, or is this a part that wasn't revealed in the original work?"
Locke took it and glanced at it a few times. The secret codex was decent for ordinary Vampires; after all, he hadn't encountered anything that could help an Extraordinary Creature increase its strength yet, and this book was the only one.
However, its side effects were too great, and he couldn't be bothered to use it.
Unless it was a last resort, he would definitely not use something that could very likely pose a threat to his own life; there might be traps inside.
With a casual wave, he threw the book back into his Personal Space, treating it as trash to be buried at the bottom of the chest.
Although he didn't want to cultivate it, he was quite interested in the origin of this extraordinary item, so he looked at Emilia's face with interest and asked: "Where did you get this nameless secret codex?"
