As he spoke, Levi heard an extremely clear crash. Sam opened a slightly worn wooden box and took out two things.
One is a slightly worn wine flask, and the other is a scabbard with an unknown pattern. They both look ordinary at first glance, but there is a faint glimmer on the surface. They are obviously magic items and are definitely worth their money.
Point some money.
But after taking it out, Sam was still standing there, and did not hand over all the loot to Levi, his employer, as promised when he was first hired.
Donna, who had been searching for loot while maintaining a high level of vigilance, couldn't help but subconsciously look at Levi when she saw this, as if to remind him to speed up his actions, and as if she was waiting for some order.
Levi's eyes also flickered, and he knew what the other party meant.
In the final analysis, Sam has always been just a mercenary, and unlike Donna, his relationship with him is more complicated. He joined her just for money at the beginning.
Moreover, Li Wei already knew that although this kind of temporary employment contract does not require his leadership, it is actually very easy to be broken.
The most obvious example is that ogre mercenaries will treat their employers as food when they don't have enough to eat. More than one player on the forum who was born in the mercenary country has had personal experience.
Although halflings belong to the order camp and are a kind-oriented race, wealth is very attractive, and in such a chaotic battlefield, there is no guarantee that the other party will not be careful. After all, Sam is a thief!
However, he did not take any action. In any case, they are still comrades fighting side by side until now. He has never been in the habit of attacking friendly forces.
And since he followed him, Sam has indeed tried his best and encountered many life-threatening dangers. He has always been worthy of him.
Donna rolled her eyes and immediately strode in the other direction. If Sam really had other thoughts, he would have to step over her first before he could walk out the door.
Maybe it actually took less than five seconds, but Levi felt it was very long. Fortunately, Sam seemed to have come to his senses at this time, and he ran over happily holding two things.
"Sir, I have just gained enough experience points to advance!"
Levi suddenly smiled, and Donna, who was a few meters away, also pursed her lips, then turned around and continued to be on guard. Fortunately, things did not develop in the worst direction.
"Oh? Really? This is really an unexpected surprise. Congratulations, Sam!"
After taking the two things, he didn't even have time to check the specific information. He just quickly glanced at Sam's status bar.
Sure enough, as Sam said, he has now reached the stage of advancement.
Although he has not killed a few enemies with his own hands these days, his hand crossbow will occasionally apply some poison, causing a certain amount of damage to the enemy, plus other dismantling of traps, etc., so he actually makes a lot of money.
.
He now has two branches to choose from for advancement.
Branch 1, Rogue, can enhance related abilities such as dismantling traps, opening treasure chests, etc., and requires 1.5 silver coins;
Branch 2, Stalker, acquires stealth skills and can conduct more stealthy reconnaissance, etc., which requires 1.7 silver coins.
Looking at the price, it is obvious that the latter's ability is rarer, but Levi did not immediately help the other party make a choice.
"What do you mean Sam?"
"Sir, I want to advance to a rogue. We halflings are not suitable for fighting, and it's also for the treasure chest over there!"
Sam casually pointed behind him, and there was a bronze treasure chest there, which looked more advanced than the one he just opened.
As a thief, although he doesn't know how to identify, he still has some discernment. Otherwise, if he enters the treasure house one day and doesn't know which is the most valuable, wouldn't it be too embarrassing for a thief?
"I know, I'll pay the money for you, turn it on as soon as possible, and then we'll get out of here!"
Sam was immediately very excited because as the light flashed, his skills and attributes changed.
Trap Sense (elementary), a passive skill that can detect traps earlier;
Elite, passive skill, two random attributes +1, currently strength and constitution, and additional health bonus (related to own profession and constitution), current bonus is 10 (2X5X1).
Compared with before, Sam's strength has increased by 2 points, agility, intelligence and perception have increased by 1 point, and he has an additional skill. The original elite has also changed, becoming 10 points higher in health than before.
I had to resist the beating a little bit before.
But what is the formula for the bonus of his elite skill? It seems to be different from Zhou Miyin, who is also an elite.
Taking another look at Sam's equipment, Levi found that it had been updated along with his advancement, but the attack power and defense power had only increased by 1 point, which was probably a consolation.
First, he gave Sam a salary increase according to the system prompts, and then asked him to dismantle the bronze treasure chest as soon as possible. Levi then waved to Donna.
"Donna, I'll give you this for now."
"A hip flask? Although I'm not an alcoholic, it doesn't matter if I take a few sips from time to time."
Levi raised his eyebrows and was noncommittal about this. He didn't completely believe what Donna said, but he still remembered that Donna was sent to jail because of drunkenness and fighting.
Although she was probably at the lowest point in her life at that time because she had just lost her memory and strength, he would never believe it if she said she didn't like drinking.
Taking the wine bottle casually, Donna took a look and realized that this thing was actually a magic item. The smile on her face suddenly became even bigger.
"Thanks, Levi."
The Drunkard's Old Flagon (Rare Item - Green - Excellent) can hold 5 liters of wine (only one type at a time), currently malt wine (1/5 liter).
When there is wine in the jug, you can activate the special skill attached to the jug - aged wine, and drink a sip of wine to randomly restore 15-35 health points.
This effect can be used up to 5 times per day, with a minimum interval of 30 seconds.
After using it, you will enter a tipsy state, the physical attack hit rate will be reduced by 5%, and the magic error rate will be increased by 15%.
Usage requirements: none
(I know drinking is a bad thing, but it tastes really good~)
This is also the reason why Levi directly gave up using it. He still doesn't know what the consequences of a magic error will be. Whether the magic value is consumed in vain, or whether it will cause harm to himself, but no matter what, he doesn't want to try.
But for Donna, some negative effects don't matter at all. She has more than one skill that can improve attack hit rate.
And once enough wine is loaded, even under the most unfavorable circumstances, it is possible to restore her 75 health points by drinking 5 times, which is equivalent to half her life.
He also has no use for that item, and even no one in the team can use it for the time being.
Glimmer Scabbard (Wonderful Item-Green-Excellent), you can put any dagger or sword-type weapon into the scabbard, and the inside of the scabbard will automatically adapt to its specifications. Any weapon inserted in the sheath will remain clean and sharp.
After putting it in for five minutes and taking it out, the weapon will have a new effect and its attack power will be +1 for 30 minutes.
In addition, three times a day, you can have the scabbard cast the Blessed Weapon skill on the weapon it contains while drawing the weapon from it.
Bless the weapon. After activation, it can trigger the first-level magic of the same name, infusing the weapon with divine power for 5 minutes. During this period, the weapon will increase the attack power of all evil camp creatures by 3-5 points, and can attack ghosts and other incorporeal creatures.
Requirements for use: Limited to camp-kind.
Sam can use this scabbard, but he is not a full-time combatant, so it would be a waste to give it to him.
But this does not mean that it has no value. It can even be said that its value may be higher than that of the same green hip flask. After all, no matter what race, there are many people who use swords, and the bonus of its two skills
Although it is not high, its versatility is very high.
While he was thinking about it, Sam also opened another treasure chest, but before he could see clearly what was stored inside, he heard a few "pops" and several balls of green slime flew out of the treasure chest.
Sam suddenly screamed and dodged sideways for the first time, because he was very impressed by this kind of mucus, which was almost exactly the same as the previous attack by the kobold wizard Doug Bonecutter. It was extremely corrosive.
Acid!
At the same time, Li Wei also heard a series of "click-click" sounds, which sounded like the impact of some kind of hard object!
