Chapter 218 Chapter217-Adam's Obsession and the Hidden Class, Sea King Mage (1st update, Cheer me with Power Stones!)
In the game Godslayer, the number of backpack slots is generally fixed.
They don't automatically increase as a player's level rises.
The default setting typically starts with 150 slots.
After which, at various town storage managers, players can pay to expand their backpack space, with the maximum capacity reaching up to 300 slots.
This limit was, for all intents and purposes, the absolute maximum for every player.
For those at the beginning stages of the game, a backpack with 300 slots seemed more than ample.
However, as the game gradually evolved and transitioned into the mid and late phases, that number was simply not enough.
The growing collection of items, equipment, supplies, consumables... each took up a significant portion of one's storage space.
For the players, resolving this issue seemed almost impossible.
But now, among the goods offered by Treasure Hunter Merchant, there was an item that could expand one's backpack slots.
It was something John and the others were naturally unwilling to pass up.
Especially this "Backpack Expander," which could astonishingly provide an additional 300 slots.
It was tantamount to giving players an extra backpack.
Both in terms of quantity and quality, it was pushing the boundaries of what was possible.
"This is a gem," someone remarked. "With the game's progression accelerating, everyone's running out of backpack space. This item can significantly alleviate the issue of inadequate storage…"
Blue Sea was filled with awe, his gaze lingering on the Backpack Expander for a long time.
Beside him, Adam remarked with a hint of jealousy, "It's indeed a treasure. But the price to pay is equally hefty. You either have to trade a legendary item or fork over 6 million gold coins..."
Having already completed a transaction with Treasure Hunter Merchant, Adam could only look on wistfully at these treasures, unable to acquire them for himself.
Blue Sea frowned slightly, expressing his regret, "Had I known we'd encounter such a wondrous creature as Treasure Hunter Merchant, I would've brought all the guild's available funds with me today..."
"To spend 6 million gold coins for such a legendary item seems well worth the price, no matter how you look at it," he continued.
Suddenly, the Merchant jumped up in exasperation, "I've corrected you countless times! You must address me as Treasure Hunter Merchant! Don't dare use 'Treasure Thief Rat' again to refer to me, or I will become truly angry..."
John glanced sidelong at him.
For some reason, even though the Merchant seemed to fear John's aura, he was particularly fixated on the title the trio used for him.
Apparently, the name "Treasure Thief Rat" was a grave insult to the rotund creature.
Blue Sea, unlike John who seemed to take a certain pleasure in the teasing, didn't wish to incite the creature's wrath.
Seeing Treasure Hunter Merchant's growing anger, he quickly bowed in apology, "I'm truly sorry. In my excitement, I overlooked this. My sincerest apologies, Mr. Treasure Hunter Merchant."
With a light huff, the round eyes of the Treasure Thief Rat gleamed with a hint of satisfaction.
It seemed Blue Sea's cordial and respectful demeanor was to his liking.
"That's more like it," he said with an air of importance. "Hurry up with the transaction. I have another treasure location to head to."
Blue Sea gave a subtle nod but didn't immediately make a decision.
From the side, Adam murmured, "Don't forget, I've just bought the map of the Godslayer Continent. Since we'll share this item, any equipment or items you trade for next should also be shared with me..."
Blue Sea's expression faltered momentarily.
Seeing Adam's playful yet silent gaze, he reluctantly passed on the enticing "Backpack Expander" and continued scanning the list.
[Holy Energy Gem (legendary item): An Energy Gem infused with Holy Light. Once embedded, it grants a 50% demon-breaking effect, 30% increase in weapon sharpness, and +200 attack... Price: Equivalent tier weapon or 4 million gold coins. In stock: 10.]
Yet another superior item with impressive attributes.
Energy gems were always in high demand, regardless of the period.
And here was a legendary one.
What stunned the trio most was the staggering quantity: ten of these high-quality gems!
Adam's eyes practically glowed with avarice.
The gem seemed tailor-made for him.
Its Holy Light attribute was a natural match for his class.
The gem's robust offensive attributes made it perfect for Paladins.
"Can I make a hefty offer for this gem?" Adam eagerly asked the Treasure Thief Rat.
However, without any hesitation, the creature shook his head, "No, you've already completed a transaction. You're not eligible for another."
After a long silence, Adam, with a hint of reluctance in his voice, pressed on, "What if I were to double the price? Could I secure an additional transaction?"
Both John and Blue Sea turned to look at Adam, their expressions full of astonishment, as if they were gazing upon a madman.
Doubling the price meant parting with two legendary equipment items, or a staggering 8 million gold coins—just for a single energy gem.
To any bystander, this price seemed excessively exorbitant.
But Adam seemed undeterred, his gaze unwaveringly fixed on the Treasure Thief Rat.
Perhaps, apart from Adam himself, no one could comprehend the depths of his willingness to pay such a hefty sum for a mere "Holy Energy Gem."
When he had undergone the class-change to become the "Divine Vanguard", a concealed class, the archbishop of the Holy Light Church, who assisted him in his class-change quest, had once shared a secret with him.
If all six embedment slots on his Divine Vanguard armor set were filled with high-quality Holy Light energy gems, the entire set might undergo an evolution, elevating it directly to legendary status.
This was a secret known only to the wielders of the Divine Vanguard class.
Yet, over the course of tens of thousands of years, though the Divine Vanguard class had been passed on to hundreds, not a single one among them had ever truly achieved the purification of the armor set.
Because high-quality Holy Light energy gems were incredibly scarce, gathering a full set solely through personal effort seemed nearly impossible.
Ever since Adam transitioned to the Divine Vanguard class, he had devoted immense resources to searching for these coveted gems.
Yet, until this very moment, his efforts had been fruitless.
Now, unexpectedly presented with a chance to obtain his long-sought gem from the Treasure Thief Rat's offerings, how could he not be tempted?
Yet, the hope-filled look in Adam's eyes did nothing to sway the Treasure Thief Rat's firm stance.
The rotund rodent shook his head vehemently, "It's impossible. Rules are rules. Each individual is allowed only one transaction, and you've already had yours."
No matter how fervently Adam pleaded, the Treasure Thief Rat remained steadfast. Eventually, the exasperated rat snapped, "Stop wasting time. If the other two of you aren't going to trade, then I'll be on my way."
A look of dejection clouded Adam's face as he stepped back, allowing Blue Sea to step forward and peruse the available items.
[Thunder energy gem (legendary item): A gem imbued with the properties of thunder. Once embedded, it grants equipment the ability to unleash thunder attacks, boosting paralysis by 50% and increasing Deal arts damage by 30%...]
[Swift Wind energy gem (legendary item): This storm-imbued gem boosts movement speed by 50% and armor-piercing capabilities by 20% when embedded...]
[Phantom energy gem (mythical item): A dark elemental gem. When set into equipment, it bestows dark elemental attacks, enhancing spell burn by 50% and amplifying summoned monster's attack by 30%...]
As Blue Sea continued browsing, he was visibly astounded.
It became clear to him that the Treasure Thief Rat's inventory lacked any item below the legendary tier.
But, upon reflection, it seemed only fitting.
Such a mystical creature as the Treasure Thief Rat had diligently sought treasures across the Godslayer Continent for countless years.
Thus, it was only natural for him to possess such a trove of premium items.
Each type of energy gem had no less than 10 in stock.
Clearly, the actual quantity in the Treasure Thief Rat's collection far exceeded this number.
The reason he only displayed a stock count of 10 for each gem was simply that he deemed this quantity sufficient for trade.
Blue Sea stifled his mounting desire and continued to browse.
Although several of these energy gems were perfectly suited to his unique Sea Mage class, his intuition told him that even more enticing treasures awaited further down the list.
Skill scrolls... items to increase skill points... a variety of premium legendary equipment...
The vast array of items was so overwhelming that Blue Sea could barely take it all in.
He focused on selecting what he deemed useful and carefully reading their attribute details.
Suddenly, a scroll emitting a soft blue glow caught his eye.
The moment he read the attributes of this scroll, Blue Sea's eyes illuminated with a dazzling radiance.
[Sea King Mage Class Change Scroll: A unique water-elemental hidden class. Legend has it that in the depths of the ocean lies a silent continent named Atlantis. The Atlanteans have worshipped the Ocean God for generations. Their emperor, blessed by this deity, becomes the Sea King Mage...]
A surge of fervent emotion welled up in Blue Sea, his hands clenched into fists, trembling uncontrollably.
The advanced hidden class for the Sea Mage that he had yearned for was now brazenly in front of him.
