[Lis Kain: "This is the ultimate battle, the future of Bodici will be decided by us!"]
-----------------
"Whew~"
After carefully reading all the hints for this task, players couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
But it was not out of fear, but to momentarily ease their excited emotions.
This was the most extensive task introduction they had seen since entering "Divine Revelation"; could it be worthy of a Gold-level Series Task?
Moreover, the text exuded a lofty atmosphere of fighting for the people of Bodici, which made the players with a strong sense of immersion very excited, eagerly wanting to tear apart those dastardly Boditch Soldiers and Nobles right then and there.
In the hearts of everyone, Lis no longer appeared as the pale impression he had before, but started to come alive.
That was also Lis’s purpose; for this, he specifically highlighted his own presence in the task description, making the decisive battle appear as if Lis was leading it, feeling incredibly prestigious.
"Holy crap!"
"Quick, check out the reward list this time!"
Suddenly, a player exclaimed, causing everyone to open the collapsed list of rewards.
The rewards inside were dazzling, becoming more precious the higher they went.
And at the very top of the reward list was a glittering treasure sword, blinding the eyes of many players.
-----------------
[Equipment: [Sword of the Knight of Glory]
Tier: Gold
Description: A valuable treasure sword forged from Hundred-forged Steel and Mithril by a master craftsman, silent in slicing iron, with a daunting edge, effectively enhancing the physical attack power of its wielder.
Equipment Effect 1: [Attribute Enhancement]
Strength Attribute +150 Points, Endurance Attribute +150 Points
Equipment Effect 2: [Sharp]
Penetrating effect against armors below Gold tier, with an additional 20% increase in attack power
Equipment Effect 3: [Crippled]
When inflicting physical damage on an enemy, there is a 15% chance to apply the [Crippled] effect, reducing the target’s attack speed by 20% and movement speed by 30%, duration: 6 seconds
Equipment Effect 4: [Glory]
Through a special Enchantment, this longsword shines with a golden dawn during battle, just like the glory of a hero
-----------------
This was specifically included by Lis in this reward, along with several silver-tier equipment items, and a lot of basic rewards.
This longsword wasn’t the one used by Lis, but a Gold-tier longsword he had gathered while roaming the Pearl Sea. Although it looked mighty, it was just average among Gold-tier weapons.
After acquiring another stronger Gold-tier longsword, Lis had replaced this one.
For Lis, a longsword was just a replaceable weapon after all, not very important.
But the last equipment effect was too quirky; the sword was too dazzling with its golden glow during battles, and even Lis didn’t know which talented craftsman chose to Enchant it with this effect.
However, for players, this might actually be a plus, as they loved weapons with a somewhat quirky flair.
But it wouldn’t be easy to get this treasure sword!
...
"Holy shit, this longsword is awesome, it looks so cool!"
The players noticed this Gold-tier treasure sword, especially the warriors, who got excited.
This was the first Gold-tier weapon they had seen, and although it was still listed on the reward list, it captured everyone’s attention!
"It’s fifty thousand points, is that a lot of points or what?!"
All players were entranced, unable to take their eyes off the longsword.
"I reckon it’s hopeless, the lowest reward on this list is 1 point for 1 Gold Coin, which means this longsword equals 50,000 Gold Coins," one player said.
"I guess these points will be quite difficult to obtain," another commented.
Some players noticed the Hua Points as they scrolled down.
This was specially set up by Lis, ensuring that basically, each point corresponded to an appropriate reward, ranging from Bronze Level to Gold Level.

The acquisition of points was also specially configured by Lis, where normal players completing tasks could only earn a few hundred to a thousand points, making it impossible to obtain this treasure sword.
To prevent players from exploiting any loopholes, Lis had specially set the points to be non-transferable, closing any gaps.
It was only him who could fleece the players, not the players fleecing him.
Now the players were still too poor. When Lis would release similar tasks later and add an option of 1 Gold Coin for 1 point, he would earn even more.
Considering the actual value of this treasure sword was only around 20,000 Gold Coins, Lis dared to sell it for 50,000!
But for now, it was still too early. Although the players could not utilize the full power of Gold-level weapons or even meet the equipment level restrictions, releasing Gold Level equipment to players at this time would still somewhat disrupt the game balance.
Lis planned to gradually shear the players by selling equipment slightly above the current tier and nurturing them slowly!
This treasure sword was a hook specially crafted by Lis to attract players, and it was reusable.
Due to the appearance of the reward list, the players’ enthusiasm was instantly maxed out.
Whoever could obtain this Gold-level treasure sword would be the most dazzling player in the "Divine Revelation" game!
For players who were still at the Bronze Level, a Gold-level treasure sword was enough to show off for a long time.
As a former professional leveler in his previous life, Lis understood the players’ desires very well, which was why he chose this cool treasure sword as the highest reward.
It was also for this reason that there was even a slight hostility among the players, everyone else was a potential competitor.
After exchanging knowing glances, many players then left.
The second circle of the Gold-level Task had three branch tasks, which could completely be competed separately, striving to earn more points.
Carrot, seeing the players silently sneaking away around him, understood.
But he didn’t mind, as long as he could successfully complete the second circle of the task and trigger the hidden third circle, it was a success.
Special missions were more attractive to him than Gold-level equipment.
"Hehe~"
Carrot was feeling very pleased with himself, greeted others, and slipped away.

Self-proclaimed as a technique-oriented player, he wasn’t just focused on the dazzling rewards; he also noticed the hints about Al’s task.
In a nearby warehouse were task items prepared by Lis Kain, clearly meant to better complete this mission.
The items listed in the [Prop List] made Carrot click his tongue in awe, but more than that, they excited him.
It was a joke, to think of using such powerful items was thrilling.
Most importantly, for some reason, the items prepared by Lis…
were very sunny!
Carrot was somewhat dazzled and quickly concocted many clever strategies in his mind for using these items.
If it wasn’t claimed that all the plots and tasks in the "Divine Revelation" game were AI-generated, he would have suspected which genius had designed so many cunning items.
With that thought, Carrot quickened his pace.
The list only stated which items were available, not how many, so he had to hurry before the best ones were gone.
...
Carrot didn’t notice that above him, a silhouette quietly stood there.
Lis grinned as he looked at the system panel, already triggered by the second circle tasks, and the small dot quickly moving towards the warehouse he had prepared, nodding in satisfaction.
The players were quite proactive and keen!
Everything in Luminous Stone City was almost ready; he had also discussed with Bevis and others, planning to initiate the battle on June 1.
Lis truly believed in the players’ ability to stir things up, especially since he had provided so much support.
Just as Lis was preparing to return outside the city, he suddenly felt a gaze on him,
"Who’s there!"
