CHAPTER 43: CHAPTER 43: STARTLED SWAN

’Attribute: Sit and Wait for Coins.’

’Each day, deduct 1 point from your All Attributes, and receive 1000 Blood Gold when attributes are deducted.’

Sit and wait for coins? Blood Gold?

Zhou Yingting looked at this attribute and was slightly dumbfounded.

To deduct 1 point from All Attributes every day for 1000 Blood Gold—isn’t that a bit too much?

The deduction of All Attributes includes the Life Quota.

A year of lifespan, plus 1 point from other attributes, is only worth 1000 Blood Gold?

That’s really not worth it.

It seems from this attribute that Blood Gold is not ordinary either.

But this is really sitting and waiting for death, even with 100 Life Quota, it’s only enough for the attribute to deduct for a little over three months.

If this isn’t sitting and waiting for death, what is?

Even if there’s any attribute that could solve this side effect, it seems to be useless, right?

Zhou Yingting furrowed his brows slightly and continued reading.

’Attribute: Sit and Wait for Coins can be paired with the attribute Blind Heaven and Earth, using this attribute can actively "deduct" All Attributes to obtain Blood Gold.’

This attribute?

Zhou Yingting was momentarily stunned looking at this attribute description, then his gaze fixated on the attribute, carefully interpreting each word and sentence.

When the Sit and Wait for Coins attribute is activated, you gain Blood Gold.

The Blind Heaven and Earth attribute actively deducts all attributes, triggering Sit and Wait for Coins to gain Blood Gold?

Looking at the attribute analysis below, the "deduct" of Blind Heaven and Earth is in quotations, it seems like it can be recovered.

Combining with the meaning of Blind Heaven and Earth, it’s highly likely this attribute pretends to deduct All Attributes?

If that’s the case, it seems like it indeed can be paired with Sit and Wait for Coins to sit and wait for money.

However, this attribute can’t be taken right now.

When selecting attributes, they can’t be carried, only worn on the body.

Only some attributes encountered in dungeons can be chosen not to be worn but taken out of the instance.

This was the information Zhou Yingting previously saw on the forum.

As for Blood Gold, Zhou Yingting feels he doesn’t need it for now. Deducting 1 point of All Attributes daily, he really can’t afford it with his life quota of over ten points.

After discarding this attribute, Zhou Yingting looked at the third attribute.

The first two attributes seemed deadly, and he really didn’t want to choose them.

In that case, it seems he can only look at the Magic attribute now.

’Attribute: Startled Swan.’

’Charge to use Jinghong Swordsmanship, during charging, Gang Qi protects you, with strength being the sum of three-dimensional attributes, consumes twenty points of Spiritual Power per second of charging, and increases power by one for each second charged.’

’When your Spiritual Power falls to the standard value, power multiplies by 10 for each second charged.’

Note: To use this attribute, a sword is required.

Swordsmanship, Startled Swan?

Zhou Yingting’s eyes lit up as he looked at this magic attribute.

Honestly, he does need an offensive attribute right now.

And this Startled Swan does seem to fit him well.

From what the attribute says, Gang Qi is present while charging, meaning it can also be used as a defensive method?

As for attack, the power is unknown for now, but it seems not bad.

Charging one second requires twenty points of Spiritual Power.

He currently has two hundred points of Spiritual Power, with fifty points being the untouchable standard value.

So he can charge for about seven seconds.

Who knows what the power will be after seven seconds of charging.

As for what’s on the attribute, when Spiritual Power declines to the standard value, charging continues, and power can multiply by 10.

Regarding this point, Zhou Yingting didn’t even think about it.

Dropping Spiritual Power below the standard value is very dangerous, likely leading to mental depletion or madness.

"This one it is!"

Zhou Yingting glanced at the other two attributes, shook his head, and selected the magic attribute in front of him.

Once Zhou Yingting clicked confirm, this attribute was immediately added to his panel.

"Time to see what rewards I can get this time."

Zhou Yingting set his eyes on the reward he just received.

"Solo victory, reward tripled, pick one of three."

Reward 1: RMB 60 million.

Reward 2: Three-dimensional Attribute Pill, Three-dimensional Attributes+9.

Reward 3: Level 1 Mental Recovery Potion ×3.

Pick one of three? So stingy?

Zhou Yingting paused for a moment when he saw this, and his brows furrowed deeper looking at the rewards.

The first one seemed tempting, but it really wasn’t helpful for Zhou Yingting at the moment.

Reward 2 wasn’t bad, adding nine points to all three-dimensional attributes. Choosing this elixir would raise his attributes directly to 40 points.

He currently had 34 points in all three dimensions, obtained by exchanging his lifespan.

Converting it, selecting this Three-dimensional Attribute Pill equals gaining the extent of a nine-year lifespan.

As for the Mental Recovery Potion, it’s definitely a good item.

It restores Spiritual Power quickly, allowing continued magic use.

It also quickly restores when Spiritual Power drops to the standard value.

This could be life-saving in special situations.

Except for the first one being garbage, the other two are both good items.

However, having to choose one of three is quite a dilemma.

Zhou Yingting frowned in thought.

He looked at the options before him and after thinking for a while, finally made a decision.

"I’ll take the Spiritual Power Potion. After taking it out, it might be exchanged for a Lucky 4 attribute. If I lower the price slightly, I might keep one or two for myself."

With this in mind, Zhou Yingting directly clicked confirm to obtain the potion.

After Zhou Yingting chose his reward, others were still staring at their attributes, looking quite conflicted.

It seemed they had difficulty choosing an attribute.

Not concerned by this, Zhou Yingting took large strides toward the exit passage.

The instance reward was acquired; he could leave now!

As Zhou Yingting walked toward the passage, a few newcomers followed him after seeing this, trying to catch up.

They weren’t quite sure what was happening with the instance or how to leave.

Seeing Zhou Yingting head to the passage, they naturally followed closely, thinking it was the way out.

Once they followed Zhou Yingting into the passage, their figures disappeared in an instant.

Han Qiaowen had wanted to catch up with Zhou Yingting to greet him, thinking they might team up in future instances.

However, still undecided on which attribute to choose, she could only watch Zhou Yingting leave.

After Zhou Yingting left with a few newcomers, in the blink of an eye, they returned to the alley they departed from.

The alley was now filled with plainclothes personnel, already sealed off.
