Chapter 61 Huge Loot Rewards: 5 Gluttonous Belts
"Lightning spear?" Ling Shuang repeated the term.
"That's right." Lu Yan zoomed in on the attribute panels of several pieces of equipment. "The Crimson Lotus Goddess Spear's attributes don't just include Blink Strike; it also has high critical hit rate and high damage, which will trigger when it's thrown. Combined with talents like Lightning Split, it's just as powerful."
On the light screen, a build centered around lightning attribute amplification and throwing specialization gradually took shape. It sacrificed some defensive attributes for melee combat in exchange for extreme ranged burst damage.
"Your fighting style should be to throw all your throwing weapons from the furthest distance and with the fastest speed at the very start of the battle." Lu Yan's finger traced a straight attack trajectory on the light screen.
This approach maximizes Ling Shuang's strengths—arm strength, stability, and judgment—while perfectly avoiding her weakness of insufficient mobility.
She no longer needs to fight with bayonets; instead, she transforms into a mobile artillery platform.
Lu Yan continued speaking without pausing.
He presented a completely new and revolutionary build plan for every member of the third squad, from the off-tank's defensive counter-damage mechanism to the healer's overhealing shield conversion.
These plans seem tailor-made for them, maximizing each person's strengths and cleverly using teammates' advantages to compensate for each other's weaknesses.
The atmosphere in the dormitory gradually shifted from seeking advice to purely listening and learning.
The explanation lasted for two hours. When Lu Yan turned off the light screen, the seven members of the third squad were still immersed in those brand-new tactical concepts.
Ling Shuang was the first to stand up and bow to Lu Yan again. This time, the six team members behind her did not hesitate and followed her, bowing in unison.
The next day, he locked himself in his dorm room, organizing the vast database of equipment and professional build ideas in his mind.
Time slips through our fingers.
On the morning of the third day, the countdown to the expedition to the pirate's secret realm finally reached zero.
Without delay, Lu Yan immediately used the teleportation node to step back into the dock shrouded in eternal twilight.
As soon as he stepped inside, he sensed the difference in atmosphere.
The pirate NPCs who were originally numb and listless on the dock were now gathered around the flagship's berth, craning their necks to look out of the harbor with an almost fanatical expectation on their faces.
The one-eyed captain stood at the bow of the ship, and when he saw Lu Yan's figure, his single eye blazed with a brilliant light.
He leaped directly from the three-meter-high bow of the ship, landing steadily in front of Lu Yan, kneeling on one knee, his voice trembling with excitement.
"My lord shipowner! You have returned! Praise be to the generosity of the deep sea, praise be to your wise decision! The siren's howl... it brought back treasures that even the gods would envy! The entire treasure trove of the endless sea seems to have been poured out for you alone!"
Upon hearing these words, Lu Yan's heart skipped a beat.
The NPC's reaction was exaggerated to an abnormal degree.
Lu Yan looked at the one-eyed captain kneeling in front of him, and his originally calm emotions were stirred up.
He had already gone through the calculation mechanism of the Pirate Realm many times.
A fully upgraded flagship, 100 million expedition fees, the Mythical Siren Leviathan route, plus its 100x drop rate and quality boost. Theoretically, this expedition should yield high-tier items.
But the one-eyed captain's reaction, as if he had witnessed a miracle, still exceeded his expectations.
Lu Yan raised his hand to signal the other person to get up, and was just about to open the settlement interface.
Outside the harbor, the deep sound of horns pierced through the sea fog.
The next second, the once calm sea began to churn. On the hazy horizon, a transport ship with tattered canvas broke through the fog and slowly sailed into the harbor.
Then came the second, and the third.
Ten ships.
Twenty ships.
More and more ships appeared in the distance, forming a black line that stretched as far as the eye could see.
The decks of every transport ship were packed full, with boxes, weapons, scrolls, gems, and loose equipment piled up like small mountains. Various lights shimmered and sparkled in the twilight, making the entire port look like an open treasure trove.
The previously apathetic pirate NPCs all crowded to the dock, craning their necks to look out and letting out strange cheers.
The Siren's Howl followed at the rear of the fleet.
The enormous golden sea monster's sails billowed without wind, and the magical oars on both sides of the ship moved in unison, like a giant beast that had just returned from the deep sea, carrying a treasure trove, heading towards its territory.
The one-eyed captain stood beside Lu Yan, scratching his bald head, his tone unusually hesitant.
"Dear shipowner... this time we've reaped an incredible harvest."
He pointed to the densely packed fleet of ships in the harbor.
"There was so much cargo that we had to requisition all the operational transport ships in the port to barely bring it back. There was also some low-end cargo that we couldn't fit in the cargo, so we had to dump it into the sea."
Lu Yan did not respond.
He directly opened the interactive interface.
A golden, makeshift warehouse of spoils unfolded before our eyes.
On the first page, one hundred prop icons are neatly arranged.
Lowest level Dark Gold.
Most of them gleam with the luster of epics and legends.
Lu Yan's gaze shifted to the page number in the lower right corner.
[1/110]
Page 110.
One hundred items per page.
This expedition brought back 11,000 items.
Lu Yan's fingertip hovered in front of the light screen, remaining motionless for a moment.
The 100x drop rate not only increases the probability of winning, but also seems to amplify the amount of loot brought back from expeditions by a hundredfold.
Lu Yan turned to the last page.
The previous unique, epic, and legendary items could no longer keep him occupied for long.
Until the very last few lines, those icons radiating mythical light appeared.
Lu Yan's fingertip stopped on the last page.
Among that row of mythical lights, the icon of one piece of equipment was not ostentatious.
A belt.
It is dark red all over, like the spine of some ancient beast. The buckle is carved with a beast face with its mouth wide open and its fangs interlocking, as if it would swallow anything that comes near at any time.
【Gluttony】
[Quality: Myth]
[Location: Belt]
[Special Effect: Devour]
[After defeating a rare monster, you can temporarily absorb all of the target's special effects and equipment affixes, converting them into usable buffs for a short period. Duration: 120 seconds.]
Lu Yan stared at the line of text, his finger pausing for two seconds.
The written description of this thing is short, but the meaning behind it is immeasurable.
Defeat rare monsters.
Consume all special effects and affixes.
In other words, as long as the target is special enough, the wearer can directly destroy the opponent's core mechanism within a certain period of time.
It's not simply about increasing attack, defense, or adding another skill.
Instead, they seize the enemy's "strong points" and use them.
A bunch of outrageous uses immediately popped into Lu Yan's mind.
The scene is already unimaginable.
Lu Yan took out the first Taotie belt and weighed it in his palm.
Shen.
It's not the weight that's the problem; it's the mechanism of this equipment that's heavy enough to change the way a squad plays.
He continued reading.
Article .
Article 3.
Article 4.
Article 5.
After Lu Yan finished counting, he even fell silent for a moment.
There are five Taotie in total.
Five Mythic-level Mechanized Belts.
In a normal dungeon, even if you poured all the resources in the country into farming for a year, you might not even find a single one of the same type. Now they're just lying neatly in the loot warehouse, like mass-produced standard equipment.
The one-eyed captain was still standing there, rubbing his hands together, waiting for praise.
Lu Yan closed the individual item details and reopened the attribute panel of the five belts. After confirming that the attributes were completely identical, he directly put them all into his personal storage space.
