Chapter 50 The Book of Appraisal

On the table was a small golden square box carved with strange patterns, that was the Horadric Cube.

Shen Yi held it in his hands, his hands were warm and moist, and it felt strange, but he didn't know what it was made of.

A reminder from the Bloody Emblem:

"The Horadric Cube: A magical prop with the ability to combine items."

"Put two pieces of equipment or props of similar nature into the Horadric Cube to obtain higher-level equipment or props."

"Exactly the same equipment, synthesis does not need to pay blood points."

"For similar equipment, blood points will be charged according to the difference."

"Equipment with a homogeneity of less than 50% cannot be synthesized."

"The highest synthesis level does not exceed S level."

"This item is invalid for pure technology equipment."

"Non-appraisal props, currently only available to synthesize the Horadric staff."

The function of this item is not as expected by Shen Yi. It basically conforms to the characteristics of combining homogeneous props in the original Horadric Cube, and magnifies its function, but at the same time cancels the function of combining special props.

Perhaps from the perspective of the bloody city, all the special props in the city have their own specifications, and there is no need for a Horadric cube to summarize them uniformly.

It was just the last reminder that surprised Shen Yi.

"Didn't expect that? The Horadric Cube we worked so hard to snatch turned out to be a non-appraisal item, and it can't be taken away from the Dark World at all." Rourou smiled wryly.

After killing Belia, she found out that the Horadric Cube was a non-identification item, and her heart sank. Moreover, the Horadric Cube is different from other unofficial reward items. Without identification, it can't do anything except to synthesize the Horadric Staff.

Shen Yi thought for a while but smiled: "I think it has something to do with how it was obtained. The Horadric Cube is in the Temple of Death, which is known to all adventurers who have made preparations. From this point of view, Hiding the mission itself is meaningless. But the Horadric Cube obtained under non-mission situations can only be a useless waste after all.”

"You mean to say..."

"We still have to find the old man to solve the problem." Shen Yi subconsciously knocked on the table.

Since we are looking for Deckard Cain, we must first combine the Horadric Staff.

Shen Yi threw the king's staff and the staff head assembly into the cube, and the two things turned into the Horadric staff smoothly. It's just that this Horadric staff doesn't have any attributes displayed, and it's obviously appearing purely as a quest item.

Holding the Horadric Staff, Shen Yi and Wen Wen Hong Lang went to meet Deckard Cain together.

The old man was really happy, and said in his thick voice: "Oh, human warriors, you have really completed this arduous task. Now that you have it, Lu Gaoyin no longer has to worry about the invasion from hell."

As the old man raised the staff high, the staff shone brilliantly under the sun, dispelling the haze in the sky.

Bloody Emblem Tips:

"You have completed Deckard Cain's entrustment, and the friendship level has increased by 200 points. The current friendship level is 210 points."

With this 210 points of friendliness, Shen Yi was not polite, and asked Hong Lang to ask Deckard Cain if he could help them solve the problem of the Horadric Cube.

The old man was so crisp, he directly took out a thick book from his arms, tapped lightly on the Horadric Cube, and with a flash of silver light, the Horadric Cube was successfully identified. Hong Lang's friendliness was also deducted by 50 points, which made Hong Lang furious: the old man is too black-hearted, it takes 50 points of friendliness to appraise a cube, no wonder everyone says he is old and smart.

Shen Yi's attention was attracted by the book: "The identification book?"

In the dark world, there are two important props that have to be mentioned, that is, the book of identification and the book of returning to the city.

In the original setting of the world, the book of identification is only for identifying the attributes of unknown equipment, and the book of returning to the city is only for returning to nearby cities.

But in the bloody city, the functions and values ​​of these two things immediately changed drastically.

According to the news King Kong got, these two books do still exist in the Dark World, but their functions have completely changed.

The function of the book of identification is no longer to identify unknown attributes, but to bring items in the world back to the city like an identification scroll, and the amount of substances that can be carried is greatly increased.

As for the function of the book of returning to the city, it lies in the wilderness. Adventurers who enter the wilderness can use the book of returning to the city to return at any time and under any circumstances, and are no longer restricted by reward items.

The original two item books, under such changes, have become S-level items that are more valuable than the Horadric Cube.

It is a pity that after entering the dark world, due to the urgency of the main mission, Shen Yi and the others did not have the opportunity to try to find the whereabouts of these two prop books, and there were no prop merchants in the mission world for them to inquire.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the book of appraisal appeared in the hands of Deckard Cain.

The moment he saw the appraisal book, Shen Yi suddenly realized something, and secretly scolded himself for being stupid for forgetting Deckard Cain's most important ability "appraisal".

The bloody city has always had the habit of respecting the original plot as much as possible without affecting its actual purpose, so it is completely normal for the book of appraisal to appear in the hands of Deckard Cain.

Hearing the name of the Appraisal Book, even Hong Lang and Wen Wen's eyes straightened. If Shen Yi hadn't held him down in time, Hong Lang might have pulled out his battle ax and chopped it off at the old man's head. Grab it and talk about it.

As if seeing the greed in the eyes of the three, Deckard Kane laughed: "Young man, do you also know the book of identification?"

Shen Yi let out a long breath.

Knowing that he couldn't get excited at this moment, he tried to answer in a calm tone: "I've heard of it, it's a very miraculous item, I didn't expect it to be here with you."

Hong Lang was much more straightforward: "This thing is very important to us. I said that based on our friendship, how about you give it to me?"

If he could use the remaining 160 friendship points to exchange this appraisal book, then he would be willing anyway, but unfortunately this is just a dream after all.

Deckard Cain shook his head: "I'm sorry, young warrior. The mentor who gave this book to me once said that it is only suitable for true warriors who have made great contributions to mankind. I admit that you are a very A brave warrior, but you are not yet eligible for it."

"How can I get it..." Hong Lang hadn't finished speaking, but Shen Yi had already pulled him, and forcibly blocked the rest of his words.

Hong Lang didn't know what to do, Shen Yi bowed to Deckard Kane and said: "Thank you for your help and reminder, I just asked casually. I have got the Horadric staff, and Lu Gaoyin's haze in the sky It has been cleaned, and this place will become a paradise for humans again, but we still need to fight in other places. Therefore, we also bid farewell to you."

A look of disappointment appeared on the old man's face: "Is that so? Well then, I know you are going to Kurast Harbor. I just happen to have time, old man, so I'll go with you."

"No problem." Shen Yi replied politely: "Then let's take a step first."

He pulled the two of them away quickly.

Rou Rou was puzzled: "Why didn't you ask Hong Lang how to get the certificate of appraisal?"

"Because if you ask, it is likely to directly lead to the third phase of the mission after rescuing Deckard Cain. Do you know where the third phase of the mission will happen?"

"Kurast Harbor?" Gentle responded.

"Yes." Shen Yi nodded: "Don't forget that there is a third difficulty area, now you know why I didn't ask."

Once Hong Lang completes the official questioning of Deckard Cain, the third phase of the mission will have a high chance to be triggered. At that time, the tasks related to the appraisal book will be like a mountain pressing down on them.

The choice they face is to accept or not to accept.

And for Shen Yi, who has never entered the three-difficulty area and knows nothing about the situation there, accepting a hidden task with one and three difficulty levels under such circumstances, the risks involved can be imagined.

But if they don't accept it, it means that they will lose the chance of getting the appraisal book forever.

That being the case, Shen Yi will naturally postpone the triggering of the mission, at least until he has a sufficient understanding of the difficulty of the three difficulty areas before he can make the most correct decision.

Knowing this, Hong Lang was also taken aback: "Then according to what you mean, there is a high possibility that we will not be able to complete this task at all?"

Shen Yi sneered: "For such a powerful item, I guess few generals can own it. The only possibility for an adventurer in the ordinary area to have it is to challenge the limit. Think about what the old man said just now. , you should understand what kind of mission that might be?"

Hong Lang was stunned, and muttered in his mouth: "Great contribution to mankind..."

A terrifying thought flashed through his mind, Hong Lang's heart seemed to be kicked by someone, and he couldn't stop beating wildly. Could it be that the old man thought...

Hong Lang, who had always been fearless, suddenly shivered.

He quickly changed his mind and asked Shen Yi: "Then what should we do now?"

Shen Yi replied: "Go to Kurast Harbor first, understand the mission and then make specific plans."

"Wait, there's one more thing I think it's better to do here than in the harbor." Rourou took out the sealing order and handed it to Shen Yi.

Seeing the sealed shadow beast, Shen Yi couldn't help being stunned: "What is this?"

Speaking of which, he still doesn't know what Wenrou and the others encountered in the Temple of Death. Gentle and simple talk about the process of the battle, Shen Yi's heart tightened when he heard that they encountered Belial, the king of lies, and even Hong Lang was startled.

Hearing that Beria turned into Diablo, Shen Yi was even more frantic. He yelled at Wen Rou: "But you told me that the Temple of Death was in disrepair?"

Gentle made a very innocent expression: "Oh, the buildings there are indeed not very secure. You don't know how many stone pillars collapsed when that guy bumped into it. Can you imagine? That's a building that we can't destroy, but it That's fine. It's so unfair..."

"Don't change the subject, tell me how you escaped."

"...I used Andariel's blood."

Shen Yi was stunned: "Did you use it yourself?"

When Shen Yi gave Andariel's blood to Wenrou, she didn't intend to let her use it herself, but hoped that she would use it on a soldier at a critical moment, and the soldier would cut off the road and buy time to evacuate. After all, he also knows that tenderness has blood, and if he uses Andariel's blood again, he is afraid that there will be some bad consequences.

"The situation was very critical at that time, and it was too late for me to let others cut off my back." Rou Rou said lightly: "Anyway, I'm still alive, aren't I?"

"There are no sequelae?" Shen Yi stared at Rou Rou.

Gentle and relaxed: "It's okay, maybe because it's a temporary bloodline, it will be fine after time."

Shen Yi himself has never experienced the experience of mixing two different bloodlines, so he didn't know whether Ruan Rou's words were true or not, so he could only point at her: "I will keep an eye on you, don't try to lie to me again."

Gentle gave him a nice smile: "Let's cure this little guy quickly, I've always wanted a cute pet, it's much better than those stinky men you summoned. By the way, and The car also needs repairs, and that's all your job, my logistics team leader."
