53: Chapter 53 Job Change Item: [The Torn Banner of the Undying Warrior (Orange Epic)]

Actually, to be honest, Lu Yang wasn't particularly hoping to get a Legendary skill book.

After all, his mana pool was only that big, and he already had two Legendary skills on him; he wouldn't be able to use any more even if he got them.

It would be great if he could get something else.

As Lu Yang opened the treasure chest, a crisp "ding" sound echoed in his ears.

[You opened a Legendary treasure chest and obtained: tattered flag of the undying battle soul (Epic) * 1!]

Lu Yang: "?"

Thinking he had misheard, he clicked open the System prompt list to take another look.

Then his eyes widened, filled with utter astonishment.

Orange Epic tier?!

How is that possible?

Wasn't this a Legendary-tier treasure chest?

How could it drop an Orange Epic-tier item??

Normally, the items obtained from opening a chest should be of the same quality as the chest, or lower, right?

How could it even be one quality higher?

It was Lu Yang's first time encountering such a situation; even at school, he had never learned about a similar phenomenon.

Besides, what on earth was this item, to actually be at the Epic tier?

He opened his inventory, found the item, and clicked to view its details.

[tattered flag of the undying battle soul (Orange Epic)]: Advancement item. This is a tattered battle flag left behind by an Undying Battle Soul. Upon activation, it can unlock the [Undying Battle Soul] class Legacy. Usage requirements: Warrior-class professional, base strength ≥ 200, base stamina ≥ 200, base agility ≥ 150.

Lu Yang: "???"

He took a deep breath, a hint of pleasant surprise welling up in his eyes.

It was actually an advancement item for a hidden class?!

Lu Yang had previously specifically asked Sister Shangguan to see if the Blue Star Alliance had any suitable hidden classes for him to advance into.

As a result, Sister Shangguan said that the quality of the hidden classes in the Alliance treasury wasn't particularly high and wasn't worthy of Lu Yang.

He hadn't expected that by casually opening a Legendary treasure chest, he would directly obtain an advancement item for a hidden class!

Undying Battle Soul...

A Warrior-class profession.

However, he had never heard of this class before and didn't know how strong it was.

An Orange Epic-tier class shouldn't be too bad, right?

But... the usage requirements for this thing were so high!

Both base strength and base stamina needed to reach 200 points, and base agility needed to reach 150 points.

Only base intelligence had no requirements.

But that was normal; the Undying Battle Soul was also a Warrior-class profession, what did it need intelligence for?

Although Lu Yang's current base attributes weren't low, there was still a long way to go before reaching this threshold.

Moreover... he didn't know how strong this class truly was, or whether it suited him.

Just as Lu Yang was pondering, Rebecca curiously asked: "Lu Yang, what dropped?"

Shen Qingci, Zhu Tongchen, and Lance were also filled with curiosity.

They had merely coasted on Lu Yang's luck and managed to pull Legendary skill books for their own classes.

With Lu Yang's luck, he must have pulled something even better, right?

Lu Yang snapped back to his senses, smiled slightly, and projected the [tattered flag of the undying battle soul].

After the four of them took a look, their eyes widened one by one, filled with utter astonishment.

Lance was the first to exclaim, his voice becoming a few pitches sharper: "Holy shit?! An advancement item?? And it's Orange Epic tier?!"

Rebecca was full of question marks: "Why can a Legendary-tier chest drop an Epic-tier item?? That's completely unscientific!"

The expression on Shen Qingci's pretty face was somewhat sluggish, and her pure eyes blinked again and again, as if confirming whether she had seen it wrong: "I don't know..."

Zhu Tongchen also shook his head without speaking.

He truly didn't know what to say.

A Legendary-tier chest could actually drop an Epic-tier item.

Who could have expected this?

They had never even heard of such a thing!

Lu Yang's luck was simply outrageous to the point of leaving people speechless!

Was this kind of luck really not a Soul Talent?

But Lu Yang's combat power was also unreasonably strong, wasn't it?

What kind of Soul Talent could simultaneously encompass combat power, luck, area-of-effect damage, defense, and speed?

Several of them couldn't understand what Lu Yang's Soul Talent actually was to be able to be strong to this extent.

Shen Qingci withdrew her thoughts and said with an envious expression: "Classmate Lu Yang, this Undying Battle Soul is a Warrior-class profession. If you advance, your strength will probably increase by a lot again, right?"

Lu Yang nodded: "It should be. However, I don't know if this Undying Battle Soul is strong and whether it suits me. Moreover, the usage requirements for this item are very high; I estimate I'll have to wait until Tier 2 to meet these base attribute requirements."

Hearing this, Rebecca immediately said: "I'll ask Old Ancestor later to see what kind of class this Undying Battle Soul is. If I can find relevant information, I'll send it to you."

Shen Qingci also nodded hurriedly, her high ponytail swaying gently with her movement: "I'll go home and check it out too."

Lance and Zhu Tongchen naturally didn't want to fall behind, expressing that they would also look into the class characteristics and skill effects of the Undying Battle Soul.

Lu Yang revealed a smile: "Then thank you all."

He also planned to ask Sister Shangguan after leaving the dungeon to see how this class was.

If it suited him, he could consider advancing.

As for whether he would encounter an even stronger class in the future?

Even the advancement requirements for an Epic-tier class were this high; for Legendary-tier, demigod-tier, or even mythical-tier classes, who the hell knows what kind of requirements they would have?

By then, he might even be able to find an advanced class that the Undying Battle Soul could transition into.

At this point, the party members finished tallying up all the rewards for this first clear.

Aside from Lu Yang, everyone obtained 80 free attribute points, as well as a Legendary skill book for their respective classes.

For them, it could definitely be called a massive harvest.

The corners of the four people's mouths couldn't be suppressed at all, and their smiles were brighter than the last.

Lu Yang checked the boss drops this time once more.

[Blood Horn Crown (Legendary)]: Heavy helmet, defense +30, strength +15, stamina +15, agility +10, Required Rank: 10

[Blood Horn Scepter (Legendary)]: Two-handed warhammer, attack +140, strength +20, stamina +18, agility +8, Required Rank: 10

[Dual Crystal Core Pauldrons (Legendary)]: Heavy shoulder armor, defense +30, strength +14, stamina +15, agility +12, Required Rank: 10

[Summon Goblin Champion (Legendary)]: After use, learns the Summon Goblin Champion skill. Learning requirements: Mage-class profession, intelligence ≥ 80 points.

Blood Horn itself belonged to a Warrior-class profession, but it also seemed to possess summoning-class skills simultaneously.

Therefore, among the three dropped equipment pieces, two were heavy armor used by Warrior and Knight classes, and one was a two-handed warhammer.

All of them were things Lu Yang could use!

Lu Yang discovered that whether it was the Goblin Champion Skull-Breaker, or this Goblin King Blood Horn, the items they dropped were all equipment that Lu Yang could use.

Fighting through the entire Goblin Lair dungeon, several two-handed weapons had dropped; he couldn't even use them all!

If only he could equip two-handed weapons with one hand.

By then he could hold a two-handed weapon in each hand, just thinking about it felt awesome!

Unfortunately that wasn't possible; the extras could only be sold.

Although they were also Rank 10 equipment, the Blood Horn Crown added several more points of attributes compared to the wanghai crown, so Lu Yang directly swapped it on.

The dark gray metal helmet covered the top of his head, its sides curving slightly inward, fitting the shape of his head without blocking his vision.

Besides that, Lu Yang could also use the shoulder armor, so he swapped it on directly.

Each of his left and right shoulders gained a thick armor plate embedded with a crystal core; the left side emanated a faint chill, while the right side radiated a faint heatwave.

The two-handed warhammer Blood Horn Scepter also had better attributes than the Skull-Breaker Axe.

Once the three pieces of equipment were swapped, his panel attributes improved once again.

As for the Legendary skill book [Summon Goblin Champion], it was suitable for all Mage-class professions to learn. Lu Yang planned to ask Shen Qingci and Lance later to see if they wanted it.

If they wanted it, he could sell it to them cheaply.

Inside the throne hall, aside from the crackling sound of the brazier burning, there was only the sound of water droplets occasionally dripping from the dome.

The roasted meat on those stone tables had long since gone cold, and the corpses all over the floor were also beginning to slowly turn into light dots and dissipate.

Lu Yang looked towards that silver-white dungeon exit in the center of the hall. The light gate flowed quietly, with a few wisps of fine light particles occasionally drifting from its edges.

The five of them stepped into the dungeon exit, leaving the Goblin Lair.
