Chapter 236 - 236 142 Opening the Ancient Treasure Box

Chapter 236: Chapter 142: Opening the Ancient Treasure Box, Gaining a Lot! _3 Chapter 236: Chapter 142: Opening the Ancient Treasure Box, Gaining a Lot! _3 　　”Didn’t expect such a pleasant surprise!”

At this moment, what he needed most was this Life Secret Medicine Recipe!

However, the name of this recipe had the words “Extinct Improved Version” in front of it.

With a nervous heart, Cao Xing checked the attributes of these two items.

[Mid-Rank Ancient Weapon · Mastiff Shotgun (Purple)]

[Quality: Rare]

[Attack Power: 145~176]

[Attack Method: Instantly bursts out 8 bullets]

[Attack Interval: 1 second/time]

[Attached Effect 1: Impact (80% chance to blow the enemy back 2~10 meters during close-range attacks)]

[Attached Effect 2: Shatter (30% chance to penetrate the enemy, causing effects like disabled)]

…

“Such a powerful shotgun!”

Although its attack power was much lower than Barrett’s,

It’s important to know that a shotgun could instantly burst out 8 bullets!

If all hit one target, the damage could be much stronger than Barrett’s.

Cao Xing nodded satisfactorily, “This thing is best for melee combat.”

“In the future, if an assassin sees me as a mage and tries to come close to kill me, I’ll directly pull out the shotgun and give them a burst!”

“That scene would be epic!”

Cao Xing laughed heartily.

Then, he checked the attributes of the Life Secret Medicine Recipe.

[Extinct Mid-Rank Life Secret Medicine Recipe]

[Blueprint Introduction: This blueprint allows the creation of the Improved Life Secret Medicine (Medium)]

[Effect: Restores 2000 Life Value after consumption, Cooling Time 30 seconds]

[Required Materials: Intermediate Alchemy Workshop, Glass Bottle *1, Ice Phoenix Petal *1, Spirit Breath Grass *5, Cold Spirit Water *200ml.]

(A recipe improved by a master alchemist, now extinct on this continent.)

…

Seeing the potion’s effect on this blueprint, Cao Xing’s pupils contracted suddenly!

“Instantly restores 2000 Life Value with only a 30-second cooling time!”

“This is much better than ordinary Life Secret Medicine (Small)!”

“No wonder it’s a recipe improved by a master alchemist, hahaha!”

Cao Xing was overwhelmed with excitement.

Moreover, the key was that he already had Spirit Breath Grass and Cold Spirit Water.

He just needed to find some Ice Phoenix Petal and build an Intermediate Alchemy Workshop.

Cao Xing could then mass-produce this Life Secret Medicine!

However, this potion seemed to be an item for Second Order creatures.

After all, the recovery data was too high, a direct 2000 points could fully restore a First-tier survivor’s blood volume.

At this moment, he let out a heavy breath.

“Finally, I’ve opened hundreds of Relic Bags and more than a dozen Treasure Boxes!”

“Now, I just need to find the Ice Phoenix Flower and get a blueprint for a Basic Level Alchemy Workshop and an Intermediate Alchemy Workshop.”

Although Cao Xing didn’t have these things,

As a survivor from Blue Star, he had a unique advantage compared to these natives.

That was [Market].

In area 174, with thousands of people, some survivors would have some rare encounters.

Thinking of this, Cao Xing walked straight to the market, opened the trading interface, and input the keyword [Alchemy].

After some filtering,

Many alchemy-related items appeared before Cao Xing,

Such as: Book · Alchemy Introduction, Black Powder Recipe, Alchemy Manual, etc…

After some searching, he really found a blueprint for [Basic Level Alchemy Workshop].

Cao Xing glanced at the auction person: Zou Qi.

Hmm, an unfamiliar name.

He looked at what Zou Qi needed.

[Required items: a large amount of food, a large amount of warm clothing *10, Hunter Skill Book, equipment of Green Quality or above.]

“Hunter Skill Book?”

Cao Xing glanced at his backpack and indeed had one.

[Multiple Continuous Shooting Skill Book (Green): Fires 3 to 5 arrows continuously, each arrow causes 80% damage to the enemy, Cooling Time 120 seconds.]

He had obtained it last time from Ascalon Tomb, and no one around him could use it.

So, Cao Xing sent a private message directly.

“Exchange the Multiple Continuous Shooting Skill Book for your blueprint.”

It didn’t take long for Cao Xing to receive a reply.

Zou Qi: “Wow! It’s the great Cao Xing!”

“I didn’t expect a legendary figure like you to trade with me!”

The other side seemed very excited.

A moment later, Zou Qi replied, “Sorry, I got too excited, Cao Xing.”

“By the way, do you need the Basic Level Alchemy Workshop blueprint?”

“Yes,” Cao Xing replied directly.

Zou Qi continued, “I haven’t learned the Multiple Continuous Shooting Skill Book yet; can you let me see what attribute it has?”

“Sure.”

Cao Xing was straightforward as always and posted the skill book’s attributes.

After reading them, Zou Qi exclaimed, “Such a strong skill! Cao Xing, are you sure you want to exchange such a powerful skill book for my blueprint?”

He asked somewhat uncertainly.

Cao Xing nodded, “Yes, this skill book doesn’t mean much to me.”

Compared to Multiple Continuous Shooting, as a Green Quality Skill Book, it’s valuable for a Hunter.

But for Cao Xing, it wasn’t of much use.

This trade was mutually beneficial.

Hearing this, Zou Qi replied, “Alright, thank you, Cao Xing.”

After saying that, the two proceeded with the trade.

[Transaction Successful: You received [Basic Level Alchemy Workshop Construction Blueprint], and you lost [Multiple Continuous Shooting Skill Book (Green)].]

Seeing the blueprint in his backpack, a look of joy appeared on Cao Xing’s face.

He quickly checked the attributes of the blueprint.

[Basic Level Alchemy Workshop Construction Blueprint: Can construct a workshop for making various secret medicines in the territory.]

[Armor Value: 20 points]

[Durability Value: 1800/1800]

[Area: 120 square meters]

[Required materials for construction: Wood *80, Stone *60, Iron *30, Copper *20, Basic Elemental Crystal *10.]

[Construction Time: 6 hours 32 minutes]

[Required Personnel: Alchemist 0/1]

(Note: Personnel with high-level alchemy technology can greatly increase alchemy efficiency and success rate.)

…

Cao Xing nodded, then clapped his hands and instantly learned the blueprint.

At this time, a message came from the survivor named Zou Qi: “Cao Xing, thank you for the skill book.”

“However, may I venture to ask another question?”

…
