Chapter 493: Reason for coming
“Ability 1: Share Damage; the badge wearers can share damage based on a ratio.”
This ability was similar to Talking Lady and her cat, but the difference was that they were sharing their lives. This badge was much weaker. It would just help to share some damage that couldn’t exceed a limit.
“Ability 2: Communication. Badge wearers can communicate over a short distance.”
This ability was simple to understand. It was a walkie talkie. But after seeing the description, Ye Zhongming knew it was similar to a phone as the weather didn’t affect it. As long as you were within a specific range, you could talk. Of course, you might still be affected by other methods.
The communication method was good. Many factions in his last life had similar equipment, and one could say that it was a very practical ability.
“Ability 3, sharing skills. The badge wearer can use the ability of the main badge user. The strength is based on the amount of contribution points they had.”
Ye Zhongming was the primary badger wearer. The others could use the badge to get other abilities. However, there was a very long cooldown time. It was a week. The strength was connected to the contribution points. The ability used couldn’t clash with the user’s main stat, and you couldn’t borrow the equipment ability or use an ability that was a higher level than your skills. It also had to meet the weapon type, etc.
There were many restrictions, so was it useless? On the contrary, it was very useful.
As a simple example, Xia Lei was a blade user, and if she borrowed Ye Zhongming’s job skills, apart from her triple blade, she could use the Light Seal Blademaster’s ability. That meant that she would have one more job skill. Moreover, the strength of this skill was really good. After all, Ye Zhongming had a job with a prefix.
For example, Teacher Park wore the badge. She was a support-type evolved. The only attack skill came from her staff. If she could borrow his ability, she would have one more attack skill and be able to protect herself.
From these examples, one could see how this skill raised their strength.
“Ability Four: Accumulating points. The person wearing the badge will provide the main badge wearer buffs. The higher the points, the more the buffs. More badge wearers, the higher the buffs.”
Ye Zhongming saw this and knew that it would benefit him.
He took a close look. That buff wasn’t too high. If one used data to express it, one primary badge wearer would provide him with a 1% buff based on their body stats.
Don’t underestimate that 1%, it was a ratio. Like now, Ye Zhongming would give the badges to core members. They were all five-star evolved, so what was a 1% increase? What would it be when the five of them were added together? What if the box leveled and there were more wearers? What would it be then?
Ye Zhongming couldn’t suppress his emotions just thinking about it. If this thing leveled up, he felt it might even push his evolution level up by an entire grade.
Of course, this was a long process, and he had to take it slowly.
“Ability 5: Contribution accumulation and exchange.”
This ability was special; more accurately, the leveling of the box didn’t rely on external strength but on the wearer’s points.
They could upgrade the box and turn it to level two if they accumulated enough points. Then, there would be three more badges.
The exchange function was similar to the Gate of Sacrifice. When the wearer had points, they could trade for things they needed. With each level the box increased, there would be new items to trade for.
Naturally, this skill was useful, but one had to balance trading for items and leveling the box; if not, there might be conflicts.
But this didn’t mean much to Cloud Peak. Ye Zhongming was in charge, so the others had no opinions.
Five abilities that made Ye Zhogming heave a sigh of relief. He knew that this was a real treasure. Not only did it have abilities like the Gate of Sacrifice, but it could also share damage and allow one to borrow skills. This was a fighting and support item. When the six badges had wearers, they would all get stronger. Moreover, the benefits would increase as the level of the box increased.
This final reward was perfect.
The seven rewards were in front of him, and he felt it was worth it. It was worth him spending so much effort to cause such a trap.
He kept the reward and stretched his body before leaving the room.
He spent two hours studying these few rewards. He first ordered some food before calling those few squads over.
“Who are you?”
This was his question. This eight-person squad didn’t fit into Ying City’s style. They had a waterfront city’s specialties. The leader had a conch, and the muscular guy behind him had a shell shield.
“We are envoys from Cloud Port Alliance.” The leader nodded to Ye Zhongming. He was forced to do it because Ye Zhongming’s appearance was too stylish, and the wheel's disappearance was shocking, filling him with respect.
“Where?”
Ye Zhongming tilted forward and squinted his eyes.
This terrified the leader. He observed Boss Ye’s expression and wanted to understand.
“Cloud Port Alliance.” He was not confident. He continued, “We are an alliance made of the few factions of the Cloud Port region.”
“Keke, that isn’t easy.” Ye Zhongming rested back in his chair, but his gaze had a glimpse of him reminiscing the past.
That person coughed awkwardly, “External pressure forced us to ally.”
Seeing Ye Zhongming nod, he was slightly more confident, “Cloud Port is a port city, and two months ago, we saw an abnormal situation in the ocean. Then we were attacked by ocean beasts, and these attacks seemed to be getting more intense.”
He paused and looked at Ye Zhongming before continuing, “We guess there might be a large-scale ocean beast wave. If it happens, we don’t have the confidence to block it, so we sent many envoys to contact various factions to discuss working together.”
