An earth-shattering tremor could be felt in the Crescent Land. The whole space seemed to almost collapse as the sky cracked into pieces, and glass-like crystals made of light gradually fell down—it was a beautiful sight.
As the Seal Guardian died, the Brilliant Circle of Life was also destroyed, and the map had completely collapsed.
Ding~
—’You have killed the Seal Guardian. The Goddess of Moon’s Favorability towards you has increased to Friendly.’
Lin Jie was slightly stunned—there were actually no experience points from killing a Sub-Legendary Overlord? Lin Jie did not consider that if it were not for the Sub-Legendary Overlord’s sealed skills, how could it be that easy to kill it? Not to mention Lin Jie had delayed killing it for so long to train his skills.
The huge body of the Seal Guardian let out an eye-piercing light ray—its body actually seemed to be melting. It was like a humongous Giant made of water that was about to dissolve, and with a swoosh, it fell to the ground. The extremely viscous light ray flowed down like a current of water. Lin Jie immediately took out the Crescent Warhorse Egg and allowed it to absorb all of the moon energy.
The Energy Bar was filled rapidly! The Seal Guardian had provided a total of 500 points of energy!
Furthermore, that Overlord had dropped two small items. With Lin Jie’s sharp eyes and agile hands, he activated Death Grip to grab the two items into the hand. One was a small emerald green rune, like the scaled-down version of the Brilliant Circle of Life, while the other was the pocket edition of the Seal Guardian—it looked just like a puppet.
Lin Jie casually took a look at them before placing them inside his backpack as he could feel that a powerful aura was about to be awakened!
Moonlight shone upon the ground and gathered to form a beautiful and majestic goddess. She wore a silvery-white Moonlight Battle Armor and held the Goddess of Moon’s Scythe. She looked so elegant and dignified that no one would even have any blasphemous thoughts against her. That was the Goddess of Moon!
“Adventurer, thank you for saving me.” The Goddess of Moon smiled, and instantly the temperature in the surroundings increased by a few degrees.
“It’s my pleasure,” said Lin Jie respectfully.
“Star Elves, this despicable race had actually wanted to steal this god’s powers! They are destined to be punished! Adventurer, what do you want? I will try my best to satisfy you,” said the goddess.
Three light balls floated right in front of Lin Jie.
“The first reward is equipment! There is a Sub-Legendary Fragment inside. The second reward is EXP, it is enough to raise your level by three. The third reward is one of my private collections. Choose one.”
Lin Jie’s heart skipped a beat as her rewards were bountiful! Should he choose a Sub-Legendary Fragment, or directly raise his level by three and be in the lead? Or should he try his luck and choose the goddess’ private collection?
Lin Jie thought to himself, ‘I have the ability to get Sub-Legendary Fragments on his own, and levels are not that important. Why not take a look at the goddess’ private collection?’
Ding~.
—’You have received [Moonlight Gem].’
[Moonlight Gem]: It contains 4,000 units of moon energy, which can be used as channeling material. It can also refine moon-attribute skills, or be used as an energy item.
“Adventurer, your luck is quite good. This Moonlight Gem is extremely valuable. I hope you can make good use of it.” An almost unnoticeable expression of reluctance flashed across the Goddess of Moon’s face before she continued speaking. “To thank you for saving me, I hope you can accept my heritage. From today onwards, you will become the representative of the Goddess of Moon in the land of The New Age. You can receive a large amount of attribute enhancement as my envoy as you build Moonlight Shrines and recruit believers. Are you willing to do it?”
—’Do you want to become the envoy of the Goddess of Moon and spread the glory of the goddess?”
Lin Jie’s heart thumped. ‘An envoy!’
What was an envoy? It was like the Archbishop of the Holy Church, the Divine Druid of the Nature Temple, and the Great Archmage of the Winter Castle—they were all the envoys of gods. In simpler terms, it was the most powerful Hidden Job! As long as one did their jobs, they could obtain strength from the gods’ rewards unlimitedly—attributes, skills, proficiency, levels, equipment, and so on.
However, that was not what Lin Jie wanted!
“Thank you for your kindness, but I do not wish to be restricted.” Lin Jie shook his head and rejected the goddess.
“I am surprised, adventurer.” A trace of astonishment flashed in the Goddess of Moon’s eyes as she said, “In that case, I won’t force you. I need to recuperate, you have saved me, so I will help you to the best of my powers.”
After finishing, the goddess’ body dimmed, and she gradually disappeared.
The chance to become an envoy was extremely low. Once one encountered it, they must grasp such an opportunity, or else even if they regretted, there would be no more chance.
Lin Jie looked as the goddess disappeared, but there was no trace of regret on his face at all. On the other hand, a smile could be seen. “Envoy? How is just being an envoy enough?”
He sat down and started to check his loots.
Firstly, the two items the Seal Guardian dropped.
[Brilliant Circle of Life’s Broken Core]: Rune item, incomplete item. You need to gather enough materials to complete the Brilliant Circle of Life. This array can be placed in allies’ maps, such as Guild Base, Towns, Villages, and so on. Once activated, it will deal damage per second to all ground units. Also, this rune can stockpile energy for a certain building. Once there is enough energy, then the building can be converted into a Magic building.
‘Magic building?’ Lin Jie thought over these two words.
The buildings in The New Age were mostly technological-type or normal-type buildings. For example, the Sky Provisions Shop was just a normal building. Meanwhile, the Goblin Association was a technological building, which had the function of being able to autonomously transform. The building, which could be said to be a Magic building, seemed to be only the Magic Turret? Was it possible that this item could convert a building into a Transformer?
Lin Jie saved the Pictorial of the items and wanted to send them to Hardworking Pants as he was the expert for studying runes. It should be easier for him to obtain useful information than Lin Jie. However, the system hinted that communication was not available in this map, so he could only wait until after he got out.
The other one was that puppet.
[Powerless Seal Guardian]: Mediumship item. When enough sacrifices are offered, you can summon the Seal Guardian to battle for you, and it lasts 2 hours. Regardless of whether your summoning succeeds or not, the item will enter a damaged state.
—Seal Guardian: Level 80 Sub-Legendary Overlord, Health Points: 5,000,000
Lin Jie took a look at what was needed for the summoning: 300 Complete Life Crystals, 200 Brilliant Arcane Gems, 300 sets of Master-Level Olympian Dust, Moonlight Dust, and Sun Dust. Furthermore, over 30 High-Level Mages were needed, and these Mages needed to have 5,000+ mana to pour into the rune. When all the materials and Mages were arranged at their suitable positions, then the 30 Mages would need to chant for three hours before being able to summon the Seal Guardian to help one battle.
This was a secret weapon, the guild’s treasure. Lin Jie estimated that just the cost of the materials required was as high as 1,000,000 gold coins. These materials could all be sold for sky-high prices and would be fought over intensely once they appeared in the Auction House.
What a fortune!
Although the Seal Guardian did not drop any equipment, the strategic significance of those two items was obvious.
After Lin Jie returned to the City of Light, he had to make good use of these two items.
Finally, it was that Moonlight Gem—that energy it contained was as high as 4,000 points! The Moonlight Gem must be extremely valuable just from the reluctance that could be seen from the Goddess of Moon’s expression. The Star Elves had absorbed the Goddess of Moon’s powers for such a long time, but one could only obtain 1 point of moon energy from killing each. However, this small gem contained 4,000 points!
What was the general idea of 4,000 points? Eh, take the Magic Cannon in the City of Light, for example, it was enough to allow ten cannons to simultaneously fire 100 shots—it was that powerful!
“How fortunate for the two of you.” Lin Jie summoned his Silver-Feathered Eagle, and immediately after, the Crescent Warhorse Egg appeared on his hand. He smiled and said, “Here, for you to eat!”
Screech—
Ssss—
Two excited screams could be heard. The Moonlight Gem emitted an eye-piercing light ray, and warm light flowed into the bodies of the two pets. The mellow surface of the Crescent Warhorse Egg, which was full of luster, gradually cracked. Then a small and cute horse emerged from within. There was a sharp and white gemstone-like horn on the tip of its head. Its body started rapidly growing at a speed that could be seen with naked eyes, and soon, it turned into an extremely good-looking white horse!
[Legendary Mount: Crescent Warhorse]
Type: Mythical Beast
Attributes: All stats +40, Attack increased by 10%
Movement Speed: 280%
Additional skill: Level 6 Star Fall, Level 6 Moonlight Meteor.
[Moonlight Meteor]: The Crescent Warhorse will gallop with the speed of a shooting star, increasing Movement Speed by 400%. You will obtain a Level 6 Knight Forward Sprint effect in this period of time. It lasts for 2 seconds.
Special Feature: Battle Mount! You can ride the Crescent Warhorse and battle.
The attributes of the Crescent Warhorse, it was undoubtedly a Lin Jie mount! As it was a mythical beast mount, it was naturally immune to control-type skills, like Pounce, and once one was on the mount, they would not be forcibly dragged off. The Crescent Warhorse would not be influenced by controlling skills, and its additional attributes could be compared to a Dark Gold weapon. It also had a special effect of increasing Attack by 10%, so to people like Lin Jie with extremely high basic Attack, such an enhancement was tremendous!
One of the additional skills was the AOE skill of Druids, and the other was a Forward Sprint, who knew how much more powerful than Tiger King, an Advanced Skill, that everyone would yearn for!
Of course, those were not what Lin Jie focused on. What he thought was important was the Crescent Warhorse’s Movement Speed, which was as high as 280%! It was two times faster than normal Warhorses—its speed literally as swift as the wind.
Secondly, it was the attributes of the Battle Mount, to jobs like Warriors, which focused on ground battles, one would not be able to unleash all of their powers when riding mounts, and their execution might even be affected. However, one would look dashing when riding mounts!
As a leader, one had to ride the most good-looking and domineering horse, not standing on the ground while commanding the battlefield—that was the difference between the aura!
“Level 6 Star Fall, this skill has to be put to good use!” Lin Jie turned to look at the monsters within the Star Elves’ Tomb and thought of a plan in his heart.
Immediately after, a clear screech could be heard. The Silver-Feathered Eagle flew up to the sky. It was like moonlight descending from the sky or white lightning!
It landed on Lin Jie’s shoulder and intimately pecked at Lin Jie’s ears. It was a way for it to show its liking towards Lin Jie. The Silver-Feathered Eagle now was full of feathers that looked smooth and pretty. It seemed just like a carving of white jade, so magnificent as if it was an exquisite handiwork.
[Crescent Silver-Feathered Eagle]!
