Chapter 233: Unboxing


    Trantor: 549690339


    This time the recruitment standard was raised, requiring members to have elite professions. Despite these high standards, there were still plenty of yers enrolling.


    Li Jie decided to invite these qualified yers into the guild’s training ground to select the best among them.


    They worked through the night, and by the end of it, they had almost a thousand new members. Li Yao proudly dered that they had gathered the best of the best to their guild.


    “Damn it, I’vepleted all my elite quests, and it’s already dark. Are you going to open the Dark Gold Treasure Chest or not?!”


    After nightfall, the old guild members had mostly returned. They all went to see Li Yao, who had transformed one of the guild’s rooms into his engineeringb.


    He was busy tinkering with the stuff he received from the Trade Viscount.


    “We can’t even buy these items at our current stage. We’ve scored a huge profit this time,” Li Jie, who had been constantly expanding the guild, had a good understanding of their worth.


    “Just some pieces of junk. What’s the big deal?” Guardian Angel seemed indifferent. Seeing that people were ignoring him, he stopped talking about opening the treasure chest.


    After adjusting thest machine, Li Yao said: “Junk, even if I were to sell it to you, you couldn’t afford these machines and precision instruments with tens of thousands of gold. Anyway, you wouldn’t understand even if I exined. Li Jie, here’s the checklist, help me order these. The engineeringboratory will be fully equipped then.”


    “Sure,” Li Jie responded, taking the checklist from him.


    “Alright,” Li Yao pped his hands. “It’s time to open the Dark Gold Treasure Chest.”


    Li Yao took out the Dark Gold Treasure Chest, which quickly drew a crowd.


    “Hurry up and open it. How can you keep us waiting for so long? I bet everyone around us wants to kill you right now,” Guardian Angel pointed out.


    “We have our excellent looter here, I’ll let her do the honors,” Li Yao said with a chuckle.


    “It’s your Dark Gold Treasure Chest, I can’t,” Meng Tongtong’s eyes lit up staring at the chest, but she shook her head.


    “Are you afraid I’ll use your luck? That doesn’t work, hurry up, everyone is waiting,” Li Yao, who had seen and opened higher-level chests in his past life, wasn’t as eager as before.


    “Okay. I’ll really open it!” Meng Tongtong, brimming with excitement, slowly opened the chest, rubbing her hands together.


    After a minute, with a click, the treasure chest finally opened. Meng Tongtong reached in.


    Guardian Wrist Guard


    Quality: Purple Epic


    Material: Cloth Armor


    Intelligence: 26


    Spirit: 24


    Stamina: 22


    Pet Guardian: each summon reduces damage by 3%.


    Equipment level: 13


    Suggested for: Summoners and Necromancers.


    “This is top-tier! That special effect is fucking awesome,” Guardian Angel was practically drooling.


    The attributes aside, even this damage reduction effect was game-breaking. Both summoners and necromancers had the ability to summon multiple pets forbat. The damage reduction was terrifying, like having a constant magical shield.


    The only pity was that the creatures summoned by Li Yao’s Death ck Arrow weren’t counted as real pets and couldn’t benefit from the damage reduction. Otherwise, Li Yao would have been tempted.


    Of course, it wasn’t possible to achieve 100% damage reduction. Once it hit 50%, the effect of further damage reduction gradually diminished.


    “How many pets can you summon now?” Li Yao asked.


    “Five melee skeletons, five ranged ones, two special skeletons, and a stone demon. Thirteen in total,” Feng Yi counted out.


    “Holy shit, that’s a 39% damage reduction!” Li Jie eximed.


    “Now we have another mage tanker in our team, jealous,” Guardian Angel said, his eyes shining.


    Quality usually determined an equipment’s attributes, but the actual effect and quality of the attributes entirely depended on the equipment itself.


    For example, this purple equipment with its special effects was far superior to ordinary golden ones. No one would trade it.


    “Get out, don’t think I don’t know that you changed your job to Holy Thunder Shepherd. One of the few cloth armor professions that can carry a magical shield, who are you trying to fool?”


    Usually, the necromancer was the only profession that legitimately wielded magical shields while wearing cloth armor. Holy Thunder Shepherd, on the other hand, could stylishly carry a shield like pdins and shamans.


    Holy Thunder Shepherd was notoriously resilient. Unless they were one-shot, the more you hit them, the faster their health would regenerate. They were a defensivebat healing profession. This profession was quiteplex, and it was challenging to y it well, but Guardian Angel just changed his job, and there wasn’t much differencepared to ordinary priests yet.


    “Damn, how did you know I switched my profession?” Guardian Angel was speechless. Initially, he wanted to surprise everyone and show off his main tanker skills, but he was exposed abruptly.


    “Stupid, it’s on your sleeve. You and your wife can wear magical heavy armor together in the future, providing auxiliary tanking and healing support for the main team. I’ll find another healer,” Li Yao exined.


    Li Yao was pleasantly surprised. The Holy Thunder Shepherd, also known as the training shepherd, was best at pulling mobs, especially one yer, who was d in heavy armor, and was known as the immovable barrier, with the nickname “the undying”.


    That yer became one of the shepherd gods known as “Sigh of the Gods”, meaning even gods couldn’t break through his defenses.


    Li Yao didn’t expect Guardian Angel to switch to this elite profession. It was different from his previous life, but this change was like finding a treasure. He was confident that he could nurture a shepherd deity.


    “Is that really possible?” Guardian Angel had thought about it but gave up because it sounded unrealistic.


    “Absolutely. I’ll give you the permissions, and you can equip a suit of magical heavy armor. Try it and you’ll know,” Li Yao confidently reassured him.


    “Okay, I’ll try it. I’ll put my existing equipment into the guild warehouse as a fair exchange,” Guardian Angel already had a luxurious set of equipment.


    “Alright.” Li Yao handed the wrist guards to Feng Yi.


    Feng Yi took them naturally and put them on right away. She was back in her old role.


    Ice Guardian Hand


    Quality: Purple Epic


    Material: Cloth Armor


    Intelligence: 28


    Spirit: 26


    Stamina: 25


    Ice Guardian: 20% of damage from ice spells is converted to an ice shield value.


    Equipment level: 13


    Suggested for: Ice system professionals.


    “Another epic item! The control of ice mages is incredibly powerful, especially cial Mages. It can even transform the shield value. It’s simply overpowered. Li Jie, don’t tell me you don’t want this,” Li Yao handed the gloves to Ice Sister.


    “I wouldn’t be so delicate,” Li Jie epted the gloves without hesitation.


    “Why isn’t it a light system item? If it were a light system, I could have used it.”


    “Who would use that light system equipment?” Fruity Knight asked indifferently.


    “Cough, naturally, it would be used by my wife,” Guardian Angel immediately brown-nosed.


    Everyone chuckled.


    “Indeed, you’ve got an extremely lucky hand. Hurry up with the next one. I’ve never seen golden gear before,” Guardian Angel urged, apparently unashamed.


    “Alright, here ites,” Meng Tongtong opened her hand, and a beam of dazzling golden light shed…
