Chapter 116 A Beacon of Light Hangs High, Master! I've Enlightened!
The previously hidden words in the status bar, "[? ? ? · Hunter's Expectation]" and "[**'s Gaze]", have now appeared and coalesced into its name—Nadia Hunter's Blade.
The hunting mark has disappeared, replaced by the upgraded [Nadia's Hunter's Gaze: Attack power increased by 1%, all attributes increased by 3%.]
This structure immediately reminded Shen Dixin of the mermaid race. She didn't know the mermaids of the Hunter Blade Clan and didn't know if they would look different.
But such a large hunting blade shouldn't be... a mermaid, right?
Even after learning the name of Hunter Blade, Shen Dixin still subconsciously avoided calling it by name. This guy was so eerie; what if it could hear her if she called its name?
[Congratulations to the player for obtaining the unique title "Unknown," unlocked via ***. Wearing this title grants a 2% boost to all attributes.]
I've finally earned a new title! The longer you play the game, the harder it is to get a title.
Many titles that Shen Dixin had heard of in his previous life had already been snatched up by others when he tried to replicate them, leaving only a few with difficult triggering conditions.
The titles she earned this month are not even a fraction of what she earned last month. She has accumulated 29 titles so far. If she wants to get another title, Shen Dixin can only hope to upgrade her ship to level seven.
Thinking about how much slower Monster Hunter progresses compared to other classes, Shen Dixin couldn't help but sigh. If they had the materials, other players could have upgraded their ships now, or even earlier.
She's definitely not the only one who can amass a large amount of wealth from a certain channel. Even if their channel's overall revenue is relatively low, accumulating enough materials for a level 7 ship isn't a problem. After all, Shen Dixin has almost accumulated two sets!
The resentment in her heart startled Shen Dixin. When did she become so greedy? After taking it six times in a row, she naturally regarded the rank and title as her own.
She murmured with a sigh, "As expected, no one is ever satisfied with what they have." When she was first reborn, she just didn't want to bury her talent, didn't want to be exploited by those in power in the channel, and didn't want to have to eat steamed buns to fill her stomach.
This isn't difficult, but if the Strange Tide Waves keep demanding so much, she'll have a hard time getting the ship upgrade title.
Previously, most of the resources were used to purchase items, and upgrade materials were not collected in time, so it was temporarily put on hold. Now that things are over, we can start trying to solve the problem.
She opened the customer service window and clicked—
"System, can you adjust the ship upgrade requirements?"
All the strange contracts and regulations that Shen Dixin had negotiated with the system were surprisingly easy to talk to. It's just unknown whether the system will take care of anything outside of the contract.
It replied instantly.
"Dear player, the ship upgrade conditions are, in principle, constraints and tests for players and cannot be changed."
"I applied to take on more challenging tests, using high requirements and intense pressure to boost my motivation."
Shen Dixin replied calmly, his speech now imbued with a sense of authority as he interacted with the system.
The screen above shows that it is currently typing, which may indicate that it is being reported.
"It has been approved that players can remove any upgrade condition except for ship materials and reselect three upgrade conditions."
Soon, the control panel appeared in front of Shen Dixin.
She naturally intended to remove the strange tide waves. The new conditions she could choose from included the astronomer's observation time of the starry sky, personal combat power requirements, restrictions on wearing accessories, upgrading the character level originally required, and increasing ship upgrade materials by 50%.
The system is very straightforward; it increases the difficulty as it pleases, and forgoes increasing the amount of ship upgrade materials—it wants too much!
Since a calm and focused mind wouldn't waste time observing the starry sky, only three conditions remain.
However, she wasn't going to change the upgrade conditions right now. She wasn't stupid; she could upgrade tomorrow, and changing the conditions now would be a huge loss!
The traditional event on the first day after a disaster – server merge.
This thunderstorm only caused minor damage to their channel. The high number of 9,766 people raised a glimmer of hope in the hearts of every player, as if from now on humanity could at least somewhat withstand the endless stream of disasters.
Chen Dixin began to review the system notifications. Without a doubt, they were once again the top-ranked channel across the entire server. The rewards remained the same: three gold supply boxes, two class item boxes, and one free attribute point.
Continue to allocate attribute points to Strength.
Shen Dixin was just worrying about how to get the thirtieth title, and the next second she found that it had been delivered to her door!
[Congratulations to the player for obtaining the unique title "Guiding Light." Unlocked after contributing more than 50% to the channel during a disaster more than 3 times. Equipping this title allows the use of the active skill [Causality: Gain a 0.2% bonus to all attributes of all players in the channel, lasting 2 minutes, with a 15-day cooldown.] This skill only applies when the player ranks first in channel contribution.]
Cleanse your heart!
That works! It directly amplifies itself by the number of people who receive its favors. She had never seen such a domineering skill before. Although the cooldown time was a bit long, once it was activated, no one could stop it.
The current population of over nine thousand can provide a nearly 20% boost to all attributes. After the server merge, the boost will quickly become 30% or 40%. What makes it so powerful is that it has absolutely no side effects!
It's important to understand that survival at sea doesn't focus on increasing combat power like other games. It encourages players to manage their ships and collect resources. The 100% or 200% attribute bonuses that are common in online games are completely absent, and active skills are also very rare.
Suppressing the excitement in my heart, I calmed my mind and looked at the newly unlocked title.
[Congratulations to the player for obtaining the unique title "Master! I've achieved enlightenment!". This title unlocks when the player has 30 or more titles. Wearing it grants three opportunities to activate the title's skill.]
[Congratulations, player, for triggering the talent effect! Activation opportunity x4!]
This reward for wearing the title is a bit strange. It took Shen Dixin a while to figure it out. It turns out that it can trigger similar skills based on the characteristics of the title, but the success rate is actually not high.
Not high? She has 12 chances! She should be able to get a few even if she throws them all in.
Shen Dixin carefully browsed through her many titles. She had quite a few titles, and most of them provided basic bonuses such as increasing experience gain and damage. However, very few of them had a decisive effect; they were all just minor benefits.
Then let's choose those with special bonuses, such as "leaders" who carry the "Respect of the White-Faced Man" bonus.
She had planned to try and see if the newly acquired divine skill "Guiding Light" could be triggered again, but she received a notification that "[this title has already triggered an active skill]", so she had to give up with regret.
Shen Dixin first used six chances in a row for the "leader" position, but she failed even once! That's too unfair!
If this continues, we might waste all twelve chances!
She gritted her teeth and tried twice more, finally succeeding on the eighth try.
"Leader": Wearing this grants the "Respect of the White-Faced Person," and allows the use of the active skill "Charm: Temporarily increases the favorability of the nearest white-faced person to 100% for two minutes, with a seven-day cooldown."
Maybe I can try it next time I see the captain!
With her remaining four chances, Shen Dixin threw them all at "Master! I understand!" Luck finally smiled upon her, or rather, she defied fate to change her destiny!
Who would have thought that a critical hit could work at a time like this? For the twelfth time, the "Heart Cleansing" talent skill was triggered again, turning one chance into five critical hits.
Sixteenth time, successfully triggered!
"Master! I've got it!": Wearing this grants three opportunities to activate the title skill, and allows the use of the active skill [Enlightenment: Grants one opportunity to activate the title skill, with a three-day cooldown.]
Shen Dixin held the newly acquired skill but remained silent. She had an impulse to ask the system if she had used the guaranteed reward twice.
