Although Bai Ye was very pious, with two blue gachas rolling out of the gacha machine, it symbolized that another ordinary day had begun.
Crystal Incense (Lavender Scent) (Item) (Blue): Permanently increases Illusion Resistance by 20%, permanently increases Stun Resistance by 10%, permanently increases Anesthesia Resistance by 10%.
Hundred Slaying Blade (Weapon) (Blue): In ancient times, there was a man who slaughtered a hundred people and collected their blood to forge this blade, hence its name: Hundred Slaying Blade. Effects: Blood Sever (Wounds inflicted by this blade will render any healing potions or recovery abilities ineffective for one hour), Blood Slash (The demonic blood contained within the blade boils, transforming into a blood blade aura for attacks).
One item, one weapon.
Bai Ye discovered that even an ordinary day held surprises.
The Hundred Slaying Blade...
There was nothing much to say about it.
In the midst of an ordinary day, a blue-quality weapon of ordinary quality appeared, possessing ordinary effects.
Nowadays, ordinary blue-quality items offered little help to Bai Ye, mostly serving as mere embellishments.
However, the Crystal Incense was quite good.
An item, and a permanent increase in resistance...
His chance to exploit a bug had arrived again. After using the Crystal Incense, it would disappear, but the increased resistance would remain, which was delightful.
Thinking this, Bai Ye had the Steel Slime swallow the Hundred Slaying Blade. As expected, there was a usage time limit, but the Steel Slime's growth value increased to 600 points.
The Crystal Incense could not be swallowed; Bai Ye had to use it himself to increase his resistance.
"Next up is the main event," Bai Ye took a deep breath and said. "The golden gacha!"
A golden radiance appeared within the gacha machine, and then, a golden gacha tumbled out.
Bai Ye muttered continuously, then opened the gacha.
"Aha!" Bai Ye exclaimed with amusement. "It's this thing."
Demon Armor (Mechanical Armor) (Gold): A combat weapon from the future civilization of KV-772, crafted from rare meteor gold, equipped with seven technological weapons. Only the elite of elite troops were qualified to equip it.
Effects: Demon Field (Summons an At-ion wave field for defense), Light Flow Energy Cannon (Rapidly gathers solar energy to form a high-heat light flow for bombardment), Magnetic Field Vortex (Creates a magnetic field vortex, drawing in anything within a 15-meter radius and continuously inflicting magnetic damage, with remarkable effects on electronic devices lacking field protection), Supersonic Movement (Utilizes nuclear energy propulsion to instantly reach supersonic speeds, lasting for 18 seconds, requiring a 6-hour cooldown for the power unit after each use), Self-Destruct (Warriors of the demon never lose, they only die. When there is no chance of victory, the Demon Armor can be detonated for mutual destruction).
"An old friend!"
Bai Ye touched the Demon Armor. He had seen this thing several times in his previous life.
After all, most mechanical armors were of red quality. Those that reached gold quality were considered premium, but even among premium items, they were still on the lower end of the gold quality spectrum.
Therefore, when specifically drawing golden gachas, their appearance frequency was relatively high.
Bai Ye was now very curious if the Steel Slime could even swallow mechanical armor.
After all, this was not just about the material; it contained many technological elements, wires, circuit boards, and the like. Could the Steel Slime perfectly simulate these as well?
The answer was...
Yes!
"Steel Slime devoured the Demon Armor and gained Devour Growth."
"Steel Slime Devour Growth, current growth value: 2120/100000."
"Your Steel Slime's quality has been upgraded to Green."
"Your Steel Slime's quality has been upgraded to Blue."
Bai Ye couldn't help but grin.
It required 1000 growth points for the Steel Slime to upgrade from white to green, and 10,000 from green to blue. A golden-quality mechanical armor provided 12,500 growth points after being devoured!
The Steel Slime directly leaped two quality tiers, successfully exploiting the bug.
And...
What delighted Bai Ye was that Jin Sha's deduction was correct; the Steel Slime did indeed gain additional effects upon upgrading.
Steel Slime (Item) (Blue): A very rare mutated slime that can devour all objects, fuse their characteristics, and transform to use them.
Effects: Devour (With continuous devouring, the Steel Slime's magic will strengthen, thus upgrading its quality), Condense (The Steel Slime can condense any devoured item), Steal (Through contact with an enemy, it can copy one of the enemy's items and perfectly condense it, valid for 12 hours. To steal again, the previous steal must be released, or wait for the 12 hours to end.), Synthesize (Can combine two items into one, forming a more powerful item, valid for 24 hours. To synthesize again, the previous synthesis must be released, or wait for the 24 hours to end.).
Condensable Items: Black Order Uniform...
When the Steel Slime was white, it only had two effects: Devour and Condense.
However, rather than effects, these were the basic functions of the Steel Slime.
Upon upgrading to green quality, the Steel Slime gained the Steal effect.
However, the Steal effect was more accurately a copy effect, allowing it to condense an enemy's item for 12 hours, and it could only steal once. To steal again, one had to wait for the time to expire or give up the previous stolen item.
This effect...
Bai Ye felt it was mediocre.
If he was being suppressed by an item from the opponent, even if he stole it, at best, it would be a draw. Moreover, items required acclimatization; some things couldn't be used effectively immediately upon acquisition.
However, in certain specific situations, Bai Ye felt that stealing would be useful.
As for the other effect, Synthesize, Bai Ye found it much more useful.
Would two blue items synthesized become black? Would black items become red?
The limitations were the same: only one item could be synthesized at a time. To synthesize again, one had to wait for the synthesis time to end or give up the previously synthesized item.
Of course, the more exciting aspect was that Jin Sha's speculation was correct: the Steel Slime would gain more effects and become more powerful as its quality increased, indicating its potential for growth.
But then...
The first growth was 1000, the second was 10000, and the third required 100000...
Actually, Bai Ye could accept 100,000 growth points, as he could exploit bugs.
One golden item provided over 10,000 growth points. By using the gacha machine and consuming some God Stone fragments, he could quickly accumulate 100,000.
However, increasing by one zero each time...
Would the fourth growth require a million?
Thinking of this possibility, Bai Ye couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Although he had quite a few God Stone fragments, he couldn't squander them like this.
