【Enhanced Soap】
— For every 30 blue or higher quality blessings owned, all attributes of the team members and their animals and puppets increase by 10%. Price: 1,499 units.
【0.5x Speed Player】
— The duration of status effect type blessings (excluding cooldowns) is doubled. Price: 2900
The two new curios that Ma Lu acquired were pricey, but their effects were also very powerful and perfectly suited for his current needs.
With Enhanced Soap in hand, the 131 blessings alone could provide a 40% boost to the four basic attributes of the team.
Bocchi's Swift Coyote, Setta's Sand Puppet, and the corpse puppets created later through 【Puppeteer】 would also benefit from this enhancement.
At the same time, with the effect of the 0.5x Speed Player, the existence time of corpse puppets created by the Puppeteer could increase from the original 7 minutes to 14 minutes.
Additionally, the duration of various negative states caused by attacks could also be extended. Despite the high prices, these two curios were indeed worth their cost.
Among the 131 blessings subsequently obtained, Ma Lu acquired several useful ones, including but not limited to two golden blessings:
【Army of the Dead: The number of corpse puppets existing simultaneously is no longer limited.】
【Corpse Party: When there are more than 10 corpse puppets on the field, a Corpse Party can be activated for 15 seconds, with a cooldown of 20 minutes. During the Corpse Party, all corpse puppets' speed and reflexes increase by 100%, while strength and endurance decrease by 50%.】
As well as three purple blessings:
【Full Body Hardening: Corpse puppets no longer have typical biological weaknesses and can ignore most fatal injuries except decapitation.】
【Infection: Targets killed by corpse puppets have a 33% chance of also being converted into corpse puppets.】
【Rotting Curse: Damage caused by corpse puppets has a 33% chance to inflict rot on the target, causing injuries to worsen continuously.】
The blue blessing 【Loyal Companion: Increases the four basic attributes of animals and puppets in the team by 20%.】was also quite impressive.
With these blessings in hand, Ma Lu's undead summoning build was essentially complete.
In addition, he acquired several blessings that directly enhanced the overall strength of the team, boosting their four basic attributes to over 170%, along with some blessings suitable for the psychic abilities of the other four team members.
After making all the preparations, the five members of the Double Sunflower hunting team finally arrived at the guild hall.
Their arrival immediately drew countless gazes.
Not to mention, just putting on those five pitch-black masks was a fashion statement in itself, giving off the vibe of a team of villains.
Moreover, the five of them had completely upgraded their equipment from head to toe, all top-tier gear.
While this kind of setup might not be much for veteran hunters in Gold and above level hunting teams, given their exceedingly young age, it was hard not to attract attention.
As the only Silver Level hunting team participating in this joint commission, their presence was in no way inferior to the Diamond and Gold Level hunting teams.
Bocchi walked straight to the counter and filled out the commission application form.
Just as she put down the pen, Wei Cha approached them.
“You’re here for the Six-Armed Ancient Ape hunt as well, aren’t you?” The leader of Blazing Fang asked straightforwardly. “How about joining me?”
“Hm?”
“There are two Six-Armed Ancient Apes, and the fifteen hunting teams will split into two squads. I am leading one of the squads,” Wei Cha explained.
“In addition to my Blazing Fang, I can select six to seven other hunting teams to join the action. Oh, and you seem to get along well with the Harpist hunting team, right? Coincidentally, Leader Gu Li and his people are also in my squad.”
Bocchi was tempted to agree, but before she could respond, Ma Lu spoke up, “Sorry, Leader Wei Cha, but we would rather join the other team.”
Wei Cha frowned. “The Sai Blade hunting team may be Diamond Level, but this time their leader is not He Chengyu; it's his sister, He Yueji.
“He Yueji may be strong, but she’s narrow-minded, ruthless, and a complete power supremacist. To her, being weak is a greater sin than being evil.”
“Hmm... sounds like an interesting person. All the more reason to meet her.”
Although Bocchi didn't quite understand why Ma Lu didn’t want to team up with Wei Cha, who had a better reputation and had fought alongside them before, as the team leader, she chose to unconditionally support her vice-leader.
“We’ll go with the Sai Blade hunting team.”
Having said all that, Wei Cha didn’t press further and nodded.
“Alright, be careful. If we finish our battle early, we’ll come to support you.”
With that, Wei Cha turned and walked away.
However, when the Double Sunflower hunting team approached He Yueji, they were met with a cold reception.
“Silver Level hunting team?”
He Yueji, her red hair blazing, sat on the reception desk in the hall, looking at the five before her with a sneer. “No, I don’t need trash here.”
Her words prompted a burst of laughter from her subordinates behind her.
The other hunters from nearby teams who witnessed this scene mostly kept silent.
The Double Sunflower hunting team had recently gained fame in The Giant Screen, especially after successfully hunting Earth Dragons, and few doubted their strength anymore.
However, their rising popularity seemed to rub He Yueji the wrong way, leading her to deliberately insult them by referencing their team level.
In situations like this, no one would speak up for an up-and-coming young hunting team, risking offending a Diamond Level team at its peak.
Ma Lu’s response was simple—just three words.
“Let’s get them!”
Before his words even finished, Setta, who had been holding back his anger, charged forward, landing a punch on the guy who had been laughing the loudest, knocking out two of his teeth.
Before the man’s companions could react, Setta followed up with a flying knee to the gut, forcing the victim to vomit stomach acid.
However, at that moment, a large pair of hands grabbed Setta’s shoulders. The attacker was a burly man, over 1.9 meters tall and weighing more than 200 pounds, yet he couldn’t lift Setta off the ground.
Instead, Setta seized the man’s joints and threw him over his shoulder, slamming him onto the floor!
The man’s massive body hit the ground with a thud, shaking the entire hall and pinning another charging hunter beneath him.
Meanwhile, Bocchi silently took down three more people.
He Yueji’s expression finally changed, especially when she heard Ma Lu’s next words, which nearly made her explode with rage.
“Vice-Leader He says you don’t want trash here, so we’ll help you clean up the trash. No need to thank me.”
He Yueji shouted in fury, “You’re courting death!”
She lunged forward as she spoke, but Ma Lu moved first, kicking her squarely in the chest and sending her flying off the desk.
Seeing that hand-to-hand combat was unfavorable, the remaining Sai Blade hunters drew their weapons.
Just as the situation was about to spiral out of control, a commanding voice boomed from outside the door.
“Stop! Anyone who continues fighting will be stripped of their hunting qualifications!”
