The special costume was also not a new concept. Everyone who had played online games knew it. In the game, items were divided into two types. One type was items with stats, such as Shi Hao’s Water Cloud Sword. And the other type was stat-less items that would change the appearance, commonly known as skins or fashionable dresses. And the special costume was such an item, especially used to dress up. Moreover, people with a high-grade game helmet could go to a special shop of the Novice Village and purchase special costumes according to their VIP levels (but the price was not cheap). In that aspect, this lottery ticket of Shi Hao was attractive but useless.
“Damn! Such a useless thing.” Shi Hao stamped his foot and cursed: “Can’t you give this father a useful thing? No matter how beautiful a skin is, it is not as good as an iron sword, which is at least practical. I want to complain, this is cheating. Eh? There seems to be a line of small words…” Shi Hao carefully looked at that line of small words. The more he looked at them, the happier he became.
“What! So that’s how it is.” Shi Hao was pleasantly surprised. The special costumes of <<Kingdom>> were not completely useless! Although most of the special costumes were indeed just a decoration, there were also very few special costumes with skill slots or special skills! Naturally, the only way to obtain those very few special costumes was the special lottery ticket rewarded by the system. As for those special costumes that could be purchased in the Novice Village’s special store by the people with high-grade game helmets, all had no such special effects. Because of this reason, one basically couldn’t see anyone going to purchase those expensive but unpractical special costumes, especially now when everyone didn’t have enough money in their pockets.
However, the lottery ticket had also clearly stated that it was not absolutely certain that the lottery ticket would draw a special costume with skill slots or skills. In the end, everything depended on fate. As a matter of fact, there were two unlucky fellows on the site. Shan Wanhong got a red skirt and Soaring Through the Highest Heaven got a brown bear outfit. These two were ordinary skins.
Fortunately, upon a closer look, Shan Wanhong’s red skirt thoroughly changed the appearance of her iron armor. She looked very beautiful like a fairy. As for Soaring Through the Highest Heaven, he directly turned into a brown bear. Without looking carefully, one might think that he was a wild monster.
“What did you draw? Wear it and let us look.” Shan Wanhong ran over and her skirt fluttered. She looked exquisite and cute! “Yes! You should have gotten something better than me. Heh heh, I’m a brown bear. Perhaps, you will be a polar bear.” Soaring Through the Highest Heaven said and got a kick from Shi Hao.
“I have yet to make a draw! I’ll use it later.” Shi Hao didn’t want to draw it casually. He was experienced in this kind of thing. Just like the initial draw of SS grade Soul of the Warrior skill as well as drawing Pei Yuanqing and Fa Zheng in Stargazing Platform, Shi Hao wanted to draw it in secret. He knew that he was very special. That black helmet was definitely a great treasure. Even if each helmet was bound to one user after it was used once, he couldn’t expose it.
The sky gradually got darker. Both Shan Wanhong and Soaring Through the Highest Heaven slept in the newly built military camp. At this moment, Shi Hao came to an open field alone with Pei Yuanqing guarding at one side and alertly monitoring all around.
“Moonlight Goddess, please bless me!” Shi Hao tapped on that special diamond-grade lottery ticket for the special costume. Sure enough, a strange yet familiar system alert resounded in Shi Hao’s ears. “Warning! The system has detected an illegal code, the data erasure has started…” He was not nervous this time. This was the old routine. The last lottery draw was also like this.
Not long after, Shi Hao discovered that a cool-looking black suit had appeared in his inventory, which had a dim flame light effect on it. This special costume’s name was Shadow Dragon Soul. Shadow Dragon Soul was amazing! It was an item with a special skill.
[Name: Shadow Dragon Soul (special costume)]
[Level: 1 (special costumes with skills have level)]
[Attached skill: Shadow Dragon Soul; within the radius of 500 million meters (same range as Soul of the Warrior skill), user can produce a colorless and invisible shield with the durability of 55% of the user’s maximum HP (Shi Hao’s total HP) for all the allies and oneself. The shield can absorb the damage taken and explode after reaching the absorption limit, causing the same amount of damage to the surrounding enemies; after the shield explodes, the CD for the reappearance of the shield is 1 day (for example, if Shi Hao’s maximum HP was 100 points, then everyone under Shi Hao who were within the range could get a shield with the durability of 55 points, which could be regarded as getting extra 55 points of HP; moreover, after the shield broke, it would explode, causing the damage of 55 points to the enemies around. Note! This attack could be offset by the other party’s defense).]
“Wow! Amazing.” Shi Hao wore this outfit. He looked very handsome, just like an unstoppable black swordsman. One had to say that, after getting Soul of the Warrior and Shadow Dragon Soul, Shi Hao’s bluffs to his teammates had truly exploded. Shi Hao, this foolish fighter went farther and farther on the path of commander, and also became stronger. However, this time, he would be exposed easily. After all, the bluff of Soul of the Warrior skill was thoroughly hidden, but Shadow Dragon Soul formed a shield, which although was colorless, invisible and couldn’t be felt, in the real fight, no matter how foolish the enemy was, the enemy would be able to feel it. However, after having such an amazing thing, should he still need to hide? Shi Hao was not so scared.
The night got deeper, which also highlighted Shadow Dragon Soul’s deep black color.
Early the next morning, at dawn. “Wow!” Shan Wanhong repeatedly praised upon seeing Shi Hao’s outfit. “You are truly amazing! How did you get such an elegant item? Does this item have a special skill? Take a screenshot and let me look.”
Soaring Through the Highest Heaven also wanted to know the answers to these questions, so he was nodding his bear head.
“Fine! I will compassionately show and make you all tremble.” Shi Hao didn’t conceal it. In any case, he wouldn’t be able to hide it for long. He sent Shan Wanhong and Soaring Through the Highest Heaven a screenshot of Shadow Dragon Soul’s effect. Upon seeing it, they exclaimed in surprise, and then, were very pleased. They were Shi Hao’s allies. As long as they became Shi Hao’s troops during the fight, they could also get the protection of Shadow Dragon Soul. Cool! Cool! Cool!
Shi Hao, Shan Wanhong and Soaring Through the Highest Heaven played boisterously again. Finally, at noon, Shan Wanhong and Soaring Through the Highest Heaven returned with their troops. And Shi Hao was finally ready to start the grand plan of establishing a village in West River Dragon Pond! “Follow me!” Shi Hao and Pei Yuanqing arranged the troops and left. Soon, Shi Hao’s troops arrived in front of a cold pond. There was cold qi on one side and fiery qi on the other side here. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was the world of fire and ice. This was where Fire Dragon King stayed.
At this moment, Fire Dragon King wouldn’t appear. Fire Dragon King and White Tiger King were the BOSSes that didn’t appear easily. Either one should establish a village in their territories or special summoning requirements must be met to make them appear. Speaking of which, this was also to protect the village established here. If the village succeeded in resisting the Fire Dragon King once after the village was established, then the Fire Dragon King wouldn’t easily come out to destroy it again. Unless someone intentionally provoked it or summon it intentionally, that was another matter.
“Let’s do it!” Shi Hao and Pei Yuanqing gave orders and started to act according to Fa Zheng’s tips…
