YM778.TV Chapter 18 - (18) Selecting Rewards
The pond and vegetation area were about half an acre in size, while the rest of the area was about three acres.
He pulled out the Lord Core and tried to insert it into the Crystal.
:Error, can not use Boss cores for Guardian summon:
\'Ah, bummer.\' Since that was the case, he took out one of the Level 5 clear Slime cores that he\'d gotten. After placing it in the center of the Crystal, the formation on the roof of the cave lit up brightly. After a few moments a similar, but much smaller, formation appeared over in the center of the cave.
A 4-foot tall clear Slime slowly emerged from the floor in the middle of that formation. Through the Crystal, he commanded it to go into the larger of the two hallways and defend the area.
Even though he had the Level 7 Slime cores, they couldn\'t produce more Slimes to help defend. He didn\'t want to close up the cave yet because he found that it could only be closed and opened once every 7 days.
\'Now, it\'s time to look through the other rewards.\'
\'Albus, can you switch over to page 2 please?\'
:Congratulations User, for clearing a Team Dungeon. Please select a reward.
Option 1: 1 TP, 2 SP, 1 random piece of Uncommon equipment
Option 2: 2 TP, 2 SP:
\'Is it possible to see all of the rewards at once?\'
:The following prompts will not show until the first is closed out:
\'That\'s a shame, it would be easier to choose that way. How many points does it take to Level up a Talent?\'
:Talents are ranked like Skills, the Common ones are cheaper than those beyond. The first upgrade is 1 TP regardless. The difference ends there, the amount of TP to upgrade again is much more than SP for a Skill:
Geth looked at the prompt again. Thanks to his Wisdom attribute, he was able to remember the exact wording of the other prompts.
\'Based on the wording, this shouldn\'t be unique, meaning that clearing any Team Dungeon would give a reward. So it\'s possible to earn more TP through other Dungeons.\' He thought. "I should already be way ahead of most, if not all, of the population in Levels, Skills, and Talents. The thing we are lacking right now is equipment.\'
He glanced over at his wife and children. \'Eventually, everyone will have to be outfitted, we can always hunt monsters. It may be quite some time before Crafters emerge, and even then, materials will be hard to come by for a while as well.\' He\'d made his decision. \'Option 1.\'
The TP and SP showed up on his Attribute page, while a small chest appeared in front of him.
\'Hmm, it\'s also nice that these can be used for personal storage here in the cave.\' He thought as he opened the latch. Lifting the lid, a faint green glow appeared as the item inside was revealed.
It was a simple wooden band, aside from the barely visible green glow there was nothing special about it.
:Band of Clarity (Uncommon); Gives wearer +5 Wisdom, +5 Intelligence. A simple band created by a skilled craftsman. Designed to calm the mind and increase harmony with Mana. Can be worn as a choker, headband, or armband, size will adjust as needed:
\'Now that was worth it.\' He slipped the band up onto his left bicep. Flexing a few times, he couldn\'t even tell it was there. There were no restrictions on his muscle, he watched as the wood would flex itself every time he moved. \'It\'s like it isn\'t even a solid\'
He stored the small wood chest over with the slightly larger one the Boss had dropped. \'All right Albus, let\'s move on to the next one.\'
:Congratulations User, for being the first to clear a Dungeon. Please select a reward.
Option 1: +1 TP, +1 SP, 1 random piece of Rare equipment
Option 2: +1 TP, +1 SP, 2 random pieces of Uncommon equipment:
This time there was no hesitation in choosing Option 1. Again, the TP and SP showed up on page 1 and a long box appeared in front of him.
The box was well designed compared to the other two, it was around 5 feet in length, a foot in width, and wasn\'t more than 6 inches in depth. The lid was designed with carvings of vines and leaves running its length.
Geth flipped the lid open to find a long wooden staff. The dull blue glow was obvious, but the staff wasn\'t really spectacular. It was smooth all the way up until about the 4-foot mark, then it split into two branches. The branches intertwined and formed an 8 shape on top with two openings, one on top of the other.
:Staff of Cunning (Rare); Gives user +10 Intelligence, +5 Wisdom. A staff created by a skilled artificer. Increases the user\'s aptitude for spell casting. Two sockets:
\'Albus, is a socket what I think it is?\' He asked.
:I have stated before that one way to use cores is to craft them into items to create Uncommon grades and above. A socket, which a very skilled craftsman can create, allows one to insert cores into an item without any crafting ability. The cores can be removed, but it would destroy the item:
He instantly thought of the Boss core that he was still holding onto. Grabbing the core out of one of the chests, he held it up to the staff.
:Imbue Lord Slime Core into Staff of Cunning?:
\'Yes\'
The core quickly turned into a bright light and was pulled into the shaft of the staff. The light flowed up the staff, dividing at the branches, and moving towards the top opening.
Once it reached the opening, light spilled out from the branches and formed a shining orb that floated in the center. Occasionally, arcing white lights would jump from the orb and hit the branch that it was contained in.. There was now an additional line under the item\'s description.
