Global Coming: Farming with my sister-in-law in the end times

Chapter 829 The Twelve Sacred Beast Runes, the Rat King's Treasure Bag!
In the woods, the survivors who witnessed the entire battle stood frozen in place, completely dumbfounded.

After the initial shock, they gradually came to their senses, and one by one they were so excited that they were trembling all over!

"Brothers, didn't we just witness history?"

"That's right! Cao Xing truly lives up to his reputation as the number one player in the entire server, effortlessly securing another first kill!"

"Brothers, I just recorded the battle. I'll post it on the forum later so that survivors in other regions can also see how powerful Cao Xing is!"

Everyone unanimously agreed to the decision.

After all, the fact that he chose to make a server-wide announcement shows that he didn't intend to hide the details of this battle.

So, a video post was uploaded to the survivors' forum and quickly garnered over ten million views!
All the survivors who saw the battle video were amazed by Cao Xing's formidable combat power.

And this moment.

After Cao Xing chose to announce it to the entire server, countless survivors flooded him with messages.

In the private chat channel, the number of unread messages quickly reached 999999+.
Some of his friends, including Ji Xinyue and Yao Yiming, also sent messages of congratulations.

Cao Xing smiled and casually replied to these people.

Then he closed the chat channel and turned his attention back to the spot where the Rat King had died.

There was a magnificent bag radiating golden light, its opening tied with a dark red ribbon, and one could vaguely sense the treasures contained within.

"According to the system, there is a chance that legendary equipment will drop from the Rat King's treasure bag."

"I wonder if I'll have a stroke of luck this time and get another legendary item?"

Cao Xing took a deep breath, his heart beating faster involuntarily.

Then, he strode over to the treasure bag and picked it up in one swift motion.

[Obtained: Rat King Jinkra's Treasure Bag *1]

However, after picking up the bag, Cao Xing's gaze fell on the snow below.

I hadn't noticed it before, but now I realize that there's an ancient stone lying where the Rat King died.

The stone was entirely covered in an ancient gray rock color, with an irregular, multifaceted appearance. It also had the mark of a mouse engraved on it, which was very similar to a rune stone he had obtained before.

"Could it be... that kind of thing?"

With anticipation in his heart, he bent down and picked up the stone.

[Obtained: Twelve Sacred Beasts Runestone (Rat)]

...

When the notification sounded, Cao Xing's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed inwardly.

"Holy crap! It really is a rat-shaped stone, haha!"

He was extremely excited at this moment. After many days, he finally obtained the second [Twelve Sacred Beasts Runestone].

As can be seen from the [Bull Runestone] obtained earlier, this type of runestone has very powerful effects.

I couldn't wait to take a look at the attributes.

【Twelve Sacred Beasts Runestone (Rat)】

[Quality: unknown]

【Item Effect ①: Granting this rune to a creature with rat blood will increase its 'Evasion Rate' by an additional 35% and grant it the 'Immobilize' ability】

[Immobilize: Locks onto a single enemy, consuming the power of the Rat Talisman to immobilize them for 1-3 seconds. Can be used on creatures of a higher level than the caster.]

(Note: This effect can be achieved once every 12 hours.)
[Item Effect 2: After collecting all twelve Sacred Beast Runes and purifying them, you can go to the 'Realm of Immortality' and resurrect '???'.]

...

After reviewing the attributes of the [Rat Talisman], Cao Xing's eyes lit up with surprise once again.

"Good heavens! This talisman's power is a bit abnormal!"

"Compared to the pure power boost of the Ox Talisman, the Rat Talisman greatly enhances survivability."

"Not only does it increase the chance of dodging, it can also freeze the enemy in place, which is equivalent to another strong control method!"

Moreover, this [Immobilize] effect is extremely powerful, and can even be used on creatures that are above its own level.

In other words, legends can control demigods, and demigods can immobilize gods!

In crucial moments, this thing can even be a game-changer!
Of course, the prerequisite is to find a creature with rat blood to fuse with.

Cao Xing pondered for a moment and realized that he didn't actually have such a creature in his territory. He could only wait and see if he could find a suitable target in the future.

With that thought in mind, he put the [Rat Talisman] back into his backpack.

With his other hand, he grabbed the Rat King's Treasure Bag.

Cao Xing's fingers were already on the drawstring of the treasure bag, ready to untie the rope and pour out the treasures inside.

Behind them, the survivors, witnessing this scene, held their breath in unison.

They all craned their necks, their eyes wide open, afraid of missing any detail.

The air over the entire snowfield seemed to stand still at that moment.

However... Cao Xing's fingers had just touched the knot when he suddenly stopped moving.

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, he casually put the treasure bag into his backpack.

Then he turned to Isabel and Malenina and said, "Let's wait until we get back to activate it."

"Let's move on to the next location now."

During the battle, he had already received a report from another Bloodwing Knight.

They discovered another silver skunk over there.

To prevent these cunning creatures from escaping, they must be dealt with as soon as possible.

"go!"

The three figures flashed and instantly turned into three afterimages, disappearing into the vast snowfield.

Upon seeing this, the survivors all showed expressions of regret.

But they didn't say much, after all, Cao Xing killed the Rat King, and he could activate it wherever he wanted, and others had no right to say anything.

...

...

After leaving the snowfield, Cao Xing quickly led the two women to the next location.

Then they continued fighting at the current pace.

Time flew by, and it was already late at night.

Cao Xing led Malenina back to their territory.

After a day of fighting, they killed another thirty-seven Skrats.

Among them: 33 Silver Skrats, 3 Golden Skrats, and 1 King Rat, Jinkra.

At this moment, he stood on the city wall of his territory.

Looking at the more than one hundred unopened bags in my backpack, a strong sense of satisfaction welled up inside me.

"Good. In another twenty days or so, after the Skram's Treasure event ends, we can open them together."

"When hundreds of bags are opened at once, the scene will definitely be spectacular!"

After a pause, Cao Xing's gaze fell on the only bag in his backpack, a bag with a very ornate appearance.

"However, let's open the Rat King's Treasure Bag we obtained today before we do that!"

Thinking of this, Cao Xing excitedly took out the Rat King's Treasure Bag.

His fingers trembled slightly when he touched the opening of the bag.

"This is the first Rat King's Treasure Bag I've ever obtained. I hope I can get some good stuff from it!"

With an excited expression, Cao Xing untied the bag and poured out all the contents.

In an instant! A burst of dazzling orange light erupted, and a dazzling array of spoils piled up on the ground.

Among them, Cao Xing saw a staff radiating intense holy light, a heart like a red crystal, and several bottles of high-quality secret medicines...

With a wave of his hand, he put all of these things into his backpack.

[Obtained: Radiant Staff (Orange)]

[Obtained: Alien General's Ring (Orange)]

[Obtained: Barbarian Mask (Orange)]

[Obtained: Rat King Jinkra's Enhancement Stone (Orange) *11]

[Obtained: Dragon Heart (Orange) *1]

[Obtained: Steel Bones Potion (Orange) *17]

[Obtained: Holy Healing Elixir (Orange) *6]

【get……】

...

At this moment, Cao Xing couldn't help but exclaim, "As expected of the Rat King's treasure bag, the quality of the treasures inside is truly beyond imagination!"

"There isn't a single item below epic quality."

"Moreover, there is even an extremely rare dragon heart inside!"

During the War of Oracles, Cao Xing spent 200 million points to exchange for a [Heart of the Dragon].

This item grants other creatures a 20% attribute boost, and creatures with dragon bloodlines receive an additional 10% attribute boost.

Binglan successfully broke through to become a mutated overlord after fusing with the [Heart of the Dragon].

After many days, he actually obtained another one.

Cao Xing gazed at the enormous, ruby-like heart in his backpack and murmured, "Currently, the creatures in the territory suitable for fusing with this heart are naturally Ice Orchid's mount, Serafis, and my new pet, the Demon Dragon Bingbing."

"However... in terms of potential and combat power, Serafis is a step behind Bingbing."

"Moreover, Bingbing has already reached level 100, and only needs one relic to break through to the legendary level."

"So let's give this [Dragon Heart] to Bingbing." After deciding on the ownership of the Dragon Heart, Cao Xing continued to check the attributes of the other three epic equipment pieces.

A moment later, a smile appeared on his face.

"These epic equipment pieces are all level 100 equipment."

"Its base stats are much stronger than those of level 70 equipment."

Among them, the [Radiant Staff] is the most valuable and has the most powerful effect.

Not only does it have a base attack power of over 10,000, it can also increase the power of light-type spells by 30%.

The epic-level effect, "Radiant Body," transforms the staff's wielder into a body of light element, granting immunity to most physical damage and significantly increasing movement speed.

However, this effect has a fatal flaw: when transformed into the [Body of Light Element] state, one cannot attack.

Regardless, this is a rather powerful staff.

Cao Xing whispered, "We can give this staff to Isabel after dawn tomorrow."

"Although the holy book in her hand is legendary, she doesn't yet have a suitable weapon."

"In this way, her combat power can be enhanced again."

Here, he silently put the staff back into his backpack.

As for the other two epic items, they are a ring and a mask.

The [Rogue General's Ring] provides a decent boost to Strength and Constitution, and also has a special effect: Rogue Summoning.

[Alien Conscription: When commanding non-human units, all units gain a 10% attribute bonus.]

The [Barbarian Mask] that follows provides a certain bonus to Strength and Agility, and also has a nice special effect: Savage Combo.

【Savage Combo: When attacking the same enemy consecutively, the power of the next attack is increased by 5%, stacking up to 10 times.】

Overall, these three epic items are all quite good, with powerful stats.

Cao Xing put them all into his backpack, intending to distribute them later.

"Next up are the 11 enhancement stones."

He flipped his right hand, and a deep red stone the size of a fist appeared out of thin air in his palm.

"Previously, the enhancement stones dropped from the Golden Skaq Rat were of gold quality, while the Rat King's enhancement stones were of orange quality."

"I wonder if these higher-grade enhancement stones will have any special effects?"

With anticipation in my eyes, I glanced at the attributes.

[Rat King Jinkra's Enhancement Stone (Orange)]

[Quality: Epic]

[Item Effect: When given to the local artisan, it can be forged and fused with weapons or equipment to increase the equipment's usability level by 10 and its base attributes by 40%.]
Furthermore, during enhancement, there is a very small chance to grant equipment or weapons effects such as 'Rat King's Power' or 'Gold Coin Protection'.

[Note: A maximum of 10 enhancement stones (of any quality) can be used on the same piece of equipment.]

...

"I see……"

Cao Xing nodded in realization and said, "Compared to the 'Golden Skaker Rat Enhancement Stone,' this Rat King Enhancement Stone is twice as effective."

"That means it can increase the equipment level by up to 100 levels and increase the base attributes by 400%!"

Upon obtaining this number, a look of shock reappeared in his eyes.

After all, this is a significant improvement, equivalent to at least tens of thousands of points of base attack power and several thousand points of attribute increase.

However, it should be noted that these enhancement stones increase basic attributes.

In other words, the attack power of weapons like the Lake Maiden's Sword in Assam, which is gained by killing monsters every day, cannot be increased.

Otherwise, this Frostwolf Knight's attack power could have exceeded ten million in a short time!
Even so, the preciousness and power of this strengthening stone cannot be denied.

"In the future, when we get some powerful semi-divine artifacts, or even divine artifacts, these enhancement stones will come in very handy."

Cao Xing thought to himself, then put the stone into his backpack.

After examining the enhancement stones, the next two secret medicines will be available.

He took out a gray bottle and a gold bottle of secret medicine from his backpack.

Each bottle of the secret medicine exudes a powerful aura.

【Steel Bone Elixir (Orange)】

[Quality: Epic]

[Potion Effect: After ingestion, temporarily hardens the bones and grants 50% damage resistance (such as non-magical blunt force, piercing, and slashing attacks)]

[Effect lasts: 8 minutes]

[Cooling time: 100 minutes]

[Side effect: After the medication wears off, you will experience joint stiffness for one hour.]

...

...

【Holy Healing Elixir (Orange)】

[Quality: Epic]

[Potion Effect: Upon ingestion, immediately restores 20%~50% of your health, with no side effects.]

[Cooling time: 10 minutes]

[Note: This medicine cannot be used simultaneously with other recovery medicines.]

...

"This [Steel Bone Elixir] seems rather ordinary, but since it's an epic-quality elixir, it should have its corresponding effects."

"As for the [Holy Healing Elixir] attribute, it's quite simple and straightforward."

"It restores health directly based on a percentage, and there are no side effects."

"This effect is almost comparable to the legendary elixir, the Essence of Life."

As Cao Xing analyzed the situation, his eyes gleamed with excitement.

For him, this secret medicine that could restore health according to a percentage was exactly what he needed most.

After all, now that they've broken through to the legendary level, their life points are easily in the hundreds of millions.

Especially Brum, this behemoth can reach 45 billion health points when all his abilities are maxed out!
Although, due to the existence of the [Eternal Power], he can recover hundreds of thousands of health points every second.

But compared to his billions of blood, it still seems like a drop in the ocean.

But things are different with this secret potion that restores a percentage of health.

Even if it only restores the minimum 20% of his health, it can instantly restore 9 million health points, enough to withstand the attacks of those demigods for a period of time.

With the added healing from Isabel, Braum could even withstand attacks from multiple demigods without dying!
If he can hold on, everything else will be easy.

Thinking of this, a smile reappeared on Cao Xing's face.

After putting both medicines back into the backpack.

At this point, all the rewards in the [Rat King's Treasure Bag] have been viewed.

Although no legendary equipment or items were obtained, it was still a very rewarding experience.

After all, the system also said that the drop rate of legendary equipment is extremely low. Even if his luck value is very high, it is impossible for him to get it in one go.

Moreover, today he has obtained a legendary weapon with an almost godlike effect, the [Rat King's Diamond Pickaxe], along with a powerful [Rat Talisman].

Mr. Cao was already quite satisfied.

He patted his backpack, then returned to the mage tower and resumed his meditative state.

The night passed quickly.

The next day...

As dawn broke, Cao Xing exited his meditative state.

He slowly opened his eyes, his deep pupils a frosty white, as if containing a vast chill.

After a night of recuperation, the surging magical power within his body has gradually subsided.

"It's time to go."

He stood up and straightened his Frost Soul Robe.

Then he left the mage tower and began a day of battle with Marlena.

The days that followed were pretty much the same.

All the combatants in the territory were giving their all according to the lord's orders.
The main force is exploring the dream fragments with all its might to deal with the Nightmare Monsters.

The Bloodwing Knights wandered across several maps near the blizzard plains, constantly expanding their search area in search of Skrats' tracks.

The staff in the territory are also working hard.

They either mine resources in the mines or upgrade important buildings in their territory, such as city walls, lord's castles, and energy stations.

Other staff members were carefully tending to the crops in the territory.

The construction teams in the outer city worked day and night, and the megacity was becoming more and more complete every day at a visible speed.

Tall towers rose from the ground, wide streets were paved, and exquisite sculptures were placed in the center of the square.

Cao Yi and his team of craftsmen strive for excellence, aiming to perfect every detail.

And just like that, twenty-five days passed in the blink of an eye.

Today marks the 94th day of this 'turbulent period'.

This is also the last day of the "Golden Ska's Treasure" event.

There are 59 days left until the end of another event, [Dream Fragments]...

...
