[Ding Dong: You have opened the [Fate Gift Box] and received the Legendary item: Bow of the Ice Queen!]
Following the surprise win of the Bow of the Ice Queen, the crowd buzzed with excitement, eager to see what else could be found within Kars’ Fate Gift Boxes.
Whispers rippled through the crowd, a mix of awe and disbelief, and for every skeptic shouting “scam,” there were two players itching to test their luck.
Alex gave Alice a nod. “Quite the show,” he muttered with a smirk.
Alice rolled her eyes, still holding the glittering bow that had appeared in her hand, its icy aura casting a faint chill into the air.
[Bow of the Ice Queen (Legendary): +1500 Spirit, +1000 Agility, +3000 Mana, +30% Ice Damage Boost.]
[Unique Skill: Glacial Rain – Unleash a barrage of icy arrows, dealing 200% damage and applying Frostbite to all enemies within range (1-hour cooldown)]
Some weapons from the higher rarities not only gave incredible stats, but could also be used to cast unique skills attached to them.
Though, do note that if you stop using the weapon, the only way you can keep that skill is by extracting it.
Alex wasn’t sure he could do that right now, but later maybe.
“Think we’re done here?” Alice asked, glancing at the crowd pressing forward toward Kars, each player with gold coins in hand.
“Yeah.”
The crowd was going wild. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
Players who had lost money were cursing their misfortune, while those who still had gold were scrambling to get their hands on a box before they sold out.
With a last glance at the excited, frenzied players still waiting their turn, Alex and Alice slipped away to a quieter part of Bell City.
When they finally found a secluded spot, they sat down, Alex eyeing his respective boxes with anticipation. Visit our site at freewebnovel
“Shall we see what Fate had in store for you?” Alice asked, half-jokingly.
Alex nodded, cracking a smile. “Let’s.”
…
[Fate Gift Box]
[Quality: Excellent.]
[Effect: After use, there is a small chance that you can get a random item, pray for the protection of the goddess of luck. ]
Alex didn’t hesitate.
[Are you sure you want to open “Fate Gift Box”?]
“Confirm.”
He then threw the first box to the ground, cracking it open.
Inside, a pulse of light shot out, briefly illuminating their faces.
As the light faded, he found himself holding a sleek, enchanted dagger, one he hadn’t encountered in the game before.
[Ding Dong: You have opened the [Fate Gift Box] and received the Mythical item: Shadow Dagger.]
“W-Wow!” Alice gasped, clearly impressed. “That’s got to be one of the best items you could’ve pulled!”
Alex shook his head, both surprised and delighted. “Not bad for a ‘game of Fate,’ huh?”
Alex glanced at the second box, already feeling the anticipation building.
Without waiting, he cracked it open, another pulse of light illuminating his face.
[Ding Dong: You have opened the [Fate Gift Box] and received a special item – Blood Altar (Artifact Level)!]
[Blood Altar (Artifact):]
[Effect: Using this altar summons a tier 7 Mythical-Level boss monster. Defeating it yields extraordinary rewards.]
…
The panel’s description was as ominous as it was thrilling.
A tier 7 Mythical boss wasn’t just a high-level foe, it was a world-altering entity capable of destroying entire regions with ease.
Thankfully enough, since it’s an artifact level item, it can be stored inside the inventory system.
Alice raised an eyebrow as she read over Alex’s shoulder. “That… might be the riskiest item I’ve ever seen in the game,” she said, equal parts impressed and wary.
Alex chuckled, tucking it safely into his inventory. “Yeah, that’s not something I’ll be using any time soon. I’ll wait until I’m a little more prepared to deal with a walking catastrophe.”
He finally took a moment to review his new dagger from the first box.
[Shadow Dagger (Mythical): +3000 Strength, +2000 Agility]
[Unique Skill: Shadow Veil – Enter an advanced stealth mode for 45 seconds, lowering detectability by 95% and increasing movement speed by 100% (10-minutes cooldown)]
…
The mythical item was practically a gift for infiltrations, allowing him to almost vanish in the thickest of enemy territory.
He couldn’t help but grin, already envisioning how this dagger could be put to use in future battles.
Just like the [Bow of the Ice Queen], it also had a unique skill linked to it.
Alice, now holding her Bow of the Ice Queen beside him, gave a nod of approval. “Looks like Fate really did us both a favor.”
They exchanged glances, a shared thrill coursing between them, but Alex wasn’t done yet.
He turned his attention back to the Shadow Dagger, determination flaring in his eyes.
Closing his eyes, he whispered, “Potential Extraction…”
The world around him blurred, and a brilliant light enveloped the dagger, colors swirling in an enchanting dance.
Alex could feel the energy surge around him, the very fabric of magic bending to his will as he drew forth the latent potential from the dagger.
Fwish! Fwish!
The dagger’s appearance gradually shifted as the extraction process began, the blade shimmering as it absorbed ambient energy and reshaped itself into an even deadlier form.
Ding!
[You have successfully enhanced “Shadow Dagger”]
[New Divine Item: Whispers of Shadows]
[Whispers of Shadows (Divine): +6000 Strength, +3000 Agility]
[Unique Skill: Shadow Veil – Enter an advanced stealth mode for 60 seconds, lowering detectability by 95% and increasing movement speed by 100% (5-minutes cooldown)]
[Additional Skill: Shadow Strike – A swift, silent strike using the power of the shadows that deals 250% of strength to a target. If used from stealth, it applies a lingering bleed effect dealing additional damage over 5 seconds. (30-seconds cooldown)]
…
“Incredible…” Alex murmured, feeling the power coursing through the newly upgraded dagger. He could almost sense its hunger for battle.
+6000 Strength and a strike that deals 250 percent of your strength is insanity.
With this, he could actually maybe manage to tear through the spiders in the [Spider Nest].
[You will be able to use ‘Potential Extraction’ on an item in: 23:59:43 hours!]
With a satisfied grin, Alex turned to Alice. “Looks like we’re both geared up now.”
“Yeah,” she replied, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “But what’s next? We can’t just stand here, right?”
“I need to stock up on some potions before we tackle the Dark Dungeon,” Alex said. “I’ll need High Quality Mana Potions to keep my reserves full for when we go deeper in.”
Alice nodded in agreement. “Good idea. Let’s find an alchemy shop.”
They set off, weaving through the bustling streets of Bell City, the sounds of merchants hawking their wares filling the air.
After a short walk, they arrived at a quaint shop filled with vibrant potions and mystical ingredients lining the shelves.
“Welcome! What can I do for you?” the shopkeeper greeted, a plump old man with a twinkle in his eye.
Alex scanned the shelves and selected a handful of [High Quality Mana Potions], feeling the familiar rush of adrenaline as he spent some of his hard-earned coins. “I’ll take these. How much?”
“10 silver coins per potion.”
Alex with his money bought 7 of them.
[Balance/Money: 1 silver coins and 85 coppers]
He was now broke, but oh well.
[High Quality Mana Potions (Epic): restores 20,000 mana when drinking them.]
After settling the transaction, Alex felt prepared for the next stage of their adventure. “Alright, let’s get going,” he said, stepping outside with Alice.
