CHAPTER 1782: CHAPTER 1526: PICKED UP A PIECE OF PLATINUM EQUIPMENT (TWO-IN-ONE)_2

"You said quite a lot, how do I know which sentence you’re referring to?"

Su Ran walked a few steps in mid-air and landed on the ground, observing the helmet up close. Judging by its unique design, it seemed extraordinary. The white surface even emitted a faint golden glow, at least a gold-tier equipment!

"Just the last sentence, hurry and think!"

Xue Wuqing said excitedly, holding back a big surprise, leaving Mo Qing Qi and Banana anxious and itching to snatch it over for a look.

"The last sentence?"

Su Ran thought carefully, mumbling to himself, "Didn’t you just ask if I felt heartache? What’s special about that?"

"Oh no, not that one, the previous sentence!"

"If platinum equipment drops..."

"Platinum equipment!"

Before finishing his sentence, Su Ran had already realized. He looked at Xue Wuqing in disbelief and asked, "You didn’t really pick up platinum equipment, did you?"

"Correct! Haha, how’s my luck, pretty good huh?"

Xue Wuqing was surprised herself. This was such an incredible coincidence, the system sure favored her!

"I have to say, you really have a blessed mouth. The player who dropped the platinum helmet must be dead depressed, right?"

Su Ran shook his head and sighed before saying, "Just this helmet alone has paid off everything. The financial loss earlier was worth it!"

"Who wouldn’t agree? I really can’t understand the current atmosphere,"

Banana’s eyes were fixed on the platinum helmet as he commented, "This society is crazy, after hoarding masks they hoard helmets. Nowadays, helmets have been speculated several times over! If I’d known this, I would’ve stocked up thousands of helmets early on, would’ve made a fortune, pity I couldn’t foresee!"

"So it’s a platinum helmet, hurry and show its attributes, Sister Wuqing, you’re driving us crazy!"

Mo Qing Qi shook Xue Wuqing’s arm impatiently, eager to see the helmet’s attributes.

"Here you go."

Xue Wuqing posted the screenshot and explained, "This helmet is for warriors, it significantly boosts defense and health. It also has a special ability called Qi Blood Origin, increasing blood by fifty percent, lasting three minutes!"

"Even though the helmet’s ability has only one skill, the massive blood gain is enough to prove its platinum status!"

"Wuqing, I think this helmet is most suitable for a Blood Warrior, but none of us have that profession. We can’t just trade it for financial value, it’d be too wasteful!"

Banana regretfully withdrew his gaze; despite the strong attributes of the platinum helmet, it didn’t match his profession, he couldn’t even wear it, leaving it as a mere collectible, utterly useless.

"I suggest selling the helmet and converting all the proceeds into financial value!"

Mo Qing Qi voiced her opinion, not caring about the small amount of money, she aimed to boost the financial value to avoid being passive in future territory battles.

"Selling it to the enemy would boost their strength, wouldn’t it? I think that’s impractical, Brother Overturning Water, don’t you agree?"

Despite not being impressed by the helmet, Banana couldn’t just sell a platinum equipment he hadn’t admired enough yet!

"What’s the big deal, even if you sell it to the enemy, when they attack again, it’ll drop again, sell it back then, wouldn’t money flow in afterward?"

Mo Qing Qi grew more excited, convinced her idea was feasible.

"Wishful thinking! We’ve already hit the jackpot dropping this helmet, do you think luck stays at your place every day? Naive!"

Banana seized the opportunity and interrupted before Su Ran could speak, "When adults speak, children shouldn’t butt in..."

"Whack!"

Mo Qing Qi pulled out a golden sword and whipped it over without a word, the golden sword acted like a whip sending Banana flying.

"Overturning Water, this helmet is of no use to anyone here, it’s up to you to decide whether to keep or sell it, we have no opinion."

Xue Wuqing tossed the helmet to Su Ran, looking natural, showing no hint of reluctance, then posted all the newly picked equipment along with a smile, "These equipment are really good quality, either silver or gold, not a single piece of bronze. It seems like they really used some brainpower trying to seize our territory."

"Did we just profit from the war?"

"Of course, that’s how I made my fortune."

Su Ran chuckled. Heroes don’t brag about past achievements. He held the helmet, facing a dilemma about its ownership. Selling it could fetch quite a lot of gold coins, but giving it to Big Blood Bull seemed right morally and politically. After all, he spent a Divine Wish Stone to help Su Ran, and Su Ran never forgot that.

"Wuqing, your profession includes frost warfare, close to a warrior profession. You should be able to use this helmet, right?"

"My profession is a hidden one, how can I equip warrior gear? Besides, even if I could use it, I wouldn’t wear it. It flattens hair, too ugly!"

"Uh."

Su Ran understood. This woman always cared about her beauty, even in the game. No wonder she chose a Silver Flying Horse as her mount, as long as she could improve her image, the mount’s weakness didn’t matter.

"Since that’s the case, I’ll keep the helmet and plan to give it to my friend who’s a Blood Warrior. Wuqing, give me a price, I plan to buy it."

Su Ran revealed his plan, "It’s better to boost my own brother than strengthen others, and this helmet suits him perfectly."

"Listen to yourself, buy what? Talking money makes things awkward, this equipment dropped for you, you claim it,"

Xue Wuqing laughed, "The Blood Warrior who you call brother must be quite mighty, not disgracing the platinum helmet. Overturning Water, I suggest pulling your brother into our territory to increase our numbers. We’re too few, no deterrence at all!"

"Exactly, with so few people, the territory feels like an empty shell. Overturning Water Leader, let me tell you, you really should recruit more people!"

Mo Qing Qi strongly agreed, addressing the territory’s weak point, vital to tackle it now. When they finally have an army, who would dare attack?

"Race issues are hard to resolve. Humans can’t ally with us. To join the territory, they must renounce their Human Race identity, which means they won’t be able to enter the Human Imperial City. Until this resolves, it’s a matter to consider long-term."

Su Ran had long thought of bringing Wan’er Sister’s Singing Song guild into his territory, but the circumstances didn’t allow it, so the idea had to be shelved.

"Poor kid, lucky for us the Elven Queen was easily persuaded, sending us three elves over. Can’t imagine how you defended this territory alone before, truly not easy!"

Xue Wuqing’s eyes filled with sympathy, acknowledging the heavy burden a leader carries.

"You have no idea who Brother Overturning Water is, he alone matches an army!"

Banana was full of admiration for Su Ran. From the two siege waves earlier, Su Ran had captivated him, single-handedly slaying tens of thousands of enemy troops. Had he not seen it himself, he would’ve thought it was a performance bragged in stories, deep down refusing to believe it.

"Getting more absurd! You guys divide the gear as you wish, handle it yourselves, just ignore me."

Su Ran, embarrassed by Banana’s praise, swiftly shifted the topic, "Once we’re done with territory matters, let’s dig up this ancient treasure map together. I want to see if Uncle Yu was telling the truth. If we really find traces of the Dark Honored One, then my opportunity has arrived."

...

Meanwhile, as Su Ran and the others divided the spoils, Han Siying had already led over fifty thousand soldiers to the edge of the marsh pool.

Regarding motives, besides Han Siying, the rest were probably clueless.
