Chapter 369: Chapter 369: Engineering Box

Translator: 549690339 |

For players who have learned a life profession, there is a certain limit of life profession fatigue value every day. Using life profession skills will increase fatigue value. Once the limit is reached, the production success rate of life professions will be terrifyingly low, and no experience points will be gained from successful or failed attempts.

Creating items after reaching the fatigue-value limit is purely a waste of materials;

Song Jian’s fatigue value had reached its limit. This was his first time reaching the limit. He had always stopped before due to running out of materials. With the unlimited supply of materials in Silver Moon Commerce under Annie’s management, he finally experienced the limit of fatigue value.

The high-explosive grenades and self-destructing robots he crafted were sold out, with the Starfire Store returning to its embarrassing state once again with no items for sale. Although people still had expectations of buying self-destructing grenades and robots the next day, it was impossible for Song Jian alone to complete the 1 million sales target within three days. He had to recruit other life profession players.

That’s why Song Jian revealed the third-tier magic fire. He believed that with the help of the third-tier magic fire, he would attract high-level life profession players.

After doing everything he could, Song Jian became idle. He had done his best, and the outcome was up to fate.

Instead of staying in the shop, Song Jian decided to take advantage of the opportunity to explore City of Hymns, his first time outside Doomsday City;

City of Hymns was much smaller than Doomsday City, probably around one-tenth the size, but its prosperity was ten thousand times that of Doomsday City!

After all, Doomsday City was a destroyed city completely occupied by monsters, where players appeared in the weakest and least monster-populated areas. Even in these areas, player deaths were common occurrences.

So comparing Doomsday City to City of Hymns was a boring endeavor.

However, players being absorbed into the game and thrown into Doomsday City were like little sparks who might one day turn into small flames, eventually becoming a blazing fire. Maybe Doomsday City would be reborn in that blazing fire.

City of Hymns had many NPCs and players, but the players here had lower levels than those in Doomsday City. Most players in Doomsday City were already over level 10 and had become professional players. In City of Hymns, however, professional players were very few in number. Song Jian encountered fewer than ten professional players on his journey;

But the NPCs in City of Divinity were all high-levels, and level 30 NPCs with first-tier combat power were everywhere. Song Jian even spotted a few level 60 NPCs with second-tier combat power wearing exquisite armor.

“There are so many life profession players here!” As Song Jian walked along, he couldn’t help but marvel at the numerous shops on both sides of the street. There were more than a dozen blacksmith shops and a few engineer shops with items that even Song Jian found fascinating, so he couldn’t help but buy some;

However, these shops only sold finished products and did not sell blueprint drawings. Otherwise, Song Jian would definitely purchase a lot of blueprints.

“Hillock Engineering Store grand opening, all items are 20% off today! And a mysterious gift! Engineering boxes, hundreds of them waiting for you to unlock. Inside, you may find rocket boots, heart pacemakers, various blueprints, and more! Interested friends can come into the store to learn more!”

A goblin shouted loudly on the side of the street, casting his sales pitch. Behind him was a two-storey building with a brand new sign that read “Hillock Engineering Store”.

At a casual glance, Song Jian was stunned by the goblin’s presence.

This unassuming goblin turned out to be a Master Level engineer. Of course, this title was intentionally displayed by the goblin. Moreover, the goblin must be very high-level as all the other attributes could not be viewed bySong Jian besides this intentionally revealed title.

After a moment’s hesitation, Song Jian couldn’t resist walking into the store.

Seeing Song Jian approaching, Goblin Xi Locke’s eyes lit up, and he eagerly welcomed him with a warm smile;

“Welcome, divine envoy, to the Hillock Engineering Store! We hope you can find satisfying items here!”

“Respected divine envoy, if you spend over 1000 Doomsday Coins in our store, you will have the opportunity to pick an engineering box. Whatever you win from the box will be given to you for free!”

“Inside the engineering boxes are many treasures 1 have crafted, some with immense value, and even rarer engineering blueprints. It all depends on your luck!”

Xi Locke talked endlessly. Hearing him mention luck, Song Jian couldn’t help but laugh;

Although cursed by the Abyss Curse, due to the title of “Savior,” Song Jian’s luck was far better than the average person. If it were a luck-based box-opening challenge, he would have a greater edge over others.

After hearing Xi Locke’s words, Song Jian was instantly attracted to the “Engineering Boxes” and wanted to test his luck.

“Let’s go have a look!” Song Jian smiled.

“Welcome! Little Locke, come out and greet our distinguished guest, are you deaf?!” Xi Locke barked at the store entrance;

Suddenly, a human boy who looked about 12 or 13 years old rushed out of the shop with a panicked expression on his face, apologizing to Xi Locke: “I’m sorry, Manager, I was tidying up the goods inside and didn’t hear you, 1…”

“Hurry up and show our guest inside the store, take good care of him, or 1’11 skin you alive if it displeases our guest!” Xi Locke threatened loudly.

“Yes, yes!” Little Locke hurriedly invited Song Jian with a gesture, and said: “Dear guest, please follow me. I’ll serve you wholeheartedly and make sure you’re satisfied!”

Song Jian frowned slightly. Although the young boy was a human, he was being scolded by a goblin, which made him feel uncomfortable.

However, Song Jian didn’t say anything. Instead, he nodded his head and followed Little Locke into the store.

Perhaps due to the new shop, there were only two or three people casually browsing inside, obviously without a strong desire to buy anything.

Song Jian gave a casual look at the counters and shelves. They displayed more than a dozen different kinds of engineering products. On the other side, occupying half of the store, there were hundreds of square metal boxes with intricate patterns on them. They looked mysterious but had no energy fluctuations, indicating that these were probably just decorative designs;

“Is this an engineering box?” Song Jian asked, pointing at the metal boxes.

“Yes, Sir. These boxes can block any detection method, and you can only rely on luck when choosing them!” Little Locke hesitated for a moment and said softly, “Most of the items inside are worth nothing, and the store owner isn’t willing to put anything valuable in there!”

“Oh, so you’re saying the items he mentioned earlier are not in these boxes?” Song Jian asked, frowning.
