51: Chapter 40: Applause 51: Chapter 40: Applause [The transaction has been completed, and the Host can choose one additional option. However, the total value of the additional rewards cannot exceed the estimated value of the traded object (about 100 store coins/1 life coin).] “I know how to do this one, I’ll pick C and take the pollutants. The second option is D, open the store and let me see what good stuff there is.” This was not his first choice. Since he knew what options would be available, Lu Ping’an didn’t hesitate to make his prepared choice. Option A’s “extra pollution” is actually the basic income of every regular adventurer. Having just advanced, Lu Ping’an needed time to adjust, so naturally, he wouldn’t choose this option. Perhaps he would never choose this option in his life. For option B, Lu Ping’an was quite hesitant. Previously, he experienced the “Fake Silver” Life Blessing that lasted a day and had a great time. If it weren’t for the increased Magic Plants Affinity and control brought by the blessing, those tentacles wouldn’t be so obedient. Moreover, the successful explosion of 2-tier Magic Plant on those few attempts was also a result of the Silver Blessing. This small blessing brought an all-around improvement to a Gardener, from real combat to research, and Lu Ping’an was eager to have permanent blessings. “Give it up. This is only a 1-tier Secret Realm, and its limit is low. Even if it’s a top evaluation, the rewards can’t exceed 2-tier. At this level, Powerful Blessings are all short-term, and permanent blessings are all garbage.” When there’s someone to guide him, Lu Ping’an saved the cost of trial and error. So, he chose option C and D without any hesitation. “…Most importantly, polluted items are very valuable, very valuable indeed!” Understanding the dark side of this new world, Lu Ping’an realized how correct and fortunate his first choice was. The quantity of Taboo items (pollutants) is extremely rare, and most of them are controlled by certain organizations or officials. Individuals have limited capacity, and items that can compensate for “shortcomings” and strengthen “strengths” are always desirable. As long as they have a bit of use, many professionals would never plan to sell them in their lifetime. Sёarᴄh the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Taboo items with heavy costs? Wouldn’t it be alright not to use or sell them? There will always be suitable buyers and occasions to use them. The selectivity and discardability of Taboo items make them much more useful than “career abilities” which, once locked, cannot be replaced. In fact, among the rewards given by Ancient City University, the most valuable and attractive to professionals was actually that “Silver-tier Taboo item”. The shovel Lu Ping’an sold for seventy thousand was only Black-iron level, and although it had the very useful “Newborn” ability, it was more about the high value of the Taboo item itself. Considering the huge gap between Bronze and Silver, even the most mediocre Silver Taboo item would be hard to resist. This temptation is far greater for professionals than other conditions, as many Taboo items can be used for a lifetime. “Come on, come on, let’s see my luck.” Light wandered around Lu Ping’an’s luggage, and he only hoped that his luck wouldn’t be too bad, and that he could either sell or use the items he received. Suddenly, the light vanished directly. Was the pollution a failure…? “Can this even happen?” This was completely unexpected, but logical given the countless precedents. However, the next moment, the system prompt sounded. [Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the Black Iron middle-rank cursed item, “Seed Bag of Hibernation”.] [Seed Bag of Hibernation (Black Iron middle-rank cursed item)] [Function: Winter Hibernation (Black Iron middle-rank), provides a maximum 3X3X3 (meter) space, allowing one animal/plant to enter hibernation state (up to 2-tier).] [Curse: Cold Winter Famine (Black Iron middle-rank): Provide 10 sacrificial offerings up to one tier lower than the “Hibernating subject” every day, seeds optional if the subject is a plant, and cubs optional if it’s an animal.] [A goddess’s words: This should be what you need most, right? I’ve cleared all the favors.] Seeing the prompt, Lu Ping’an heaved a sigh of relief, but his mood was a little conflicted. “As expected, the so-called randomness is all deception. It’s just that this bag, sigh.” It’s not that the bag wasn’t good, but when Gardeners reach a certain level, they would consider spending a lot of money to purchase an item “to carry Magic Plants”, which is basically essential. The problem is… “…Well, at least I save money. The portable Magic Plant containers they developed start at 100,000.” Due to the tremendous demand of Gardeners, several companies have developed “enchanted items” specifically for their needs. The effect can’t be said to be very good, but there’s basically no cost. Well, there might still be a cost. A slightly better one, with a better built-in ecological environment, would be so expensive that people would question their life choices. “You have no idea. In the low-level Taboo items, this is quite practical. A large enough space can accommodate medium-sized Magic Plants, and the hibernation state doesn’t require extra resources, so the cost can almost be ignored.” Lu Ping’an nodded and happily accepted it. The Lady of the Forest, the provider of Gardener and Healer paths, was truly biased. If a Beast Tamer obtained the bag, and he wanted to put a 2-tier Magic Monster inside, it would mean he had to consume ten 1-tier Magic Monster cubs every day. As for 2-tier Magic Plants… A pack of ten hibiscus blossom seeds cost a hundred coins, and Lu Ping’an was planning to find out if there were any cheaper ones. “Not bad, not bad.” Lu Ping’an projected his consciousness into the void, and a cabbage-colored panel appeared.
