...
When the world announcement flashed on the screen, Lin Yi was initially more shocked at the rewards he received rather than the impact it had on the game:
"This can’t be right?"
Such a difficult Legendary Level quest, yet the reward is only this much?
Completely unreasonable!
Lin Yi initially fantasized about possibly getting Mythical Level equipment, but after waiting, all he got was a Legendary Equipment +1 level and a Rare Pet Egg.
Based on Lin Yi’s long-term gaming experience, his reward was at least deducted by half.
Lin Yi glared at Hera, who’d turned old before him, and complained:
"Clan Leader Hera, your rewards are too perfunctory?"
After dealing with Albert, Lin Yi knew that so-called quest rewards were all provided by the NPC themselves or offset by other means.
Thus, Lin Yi had no doubt that his rewards were definitely short-changed by this old woman before him!
"I not only helped you resolve the threat of the Corpse Demon Race but also rejuvenated your Holy Blood Tree."
Lin Yi pointed to the Jade Qilin laying weakly on Behemoth’s shoulder, lamenting:
"This little reward isn’t even enough for its supplements!"
"Are you really so heartless?!"
Yet facing Lin Yi’s accusations, Hera appeared incredibly innocent:
"What can I do? The only rewards our race can offer are these."
Darn! Lin Yi looked at the Succubus Race’s Clan Leader before him, astonished that she’s pulling a cry-poor act like Albert?
Lin Yi steeled himself:
"No matter what you say, these rewards really don’t justify my effort, you have to compensate me somehow."
At this moment, Lin Yi finally understood why so many people complained about this clan leader being unreliable before his rebirth.
Now, all Lin Yi thought was, even if they compensated with a few Epic Level 30 items, it would be better than nothing.
But what shocked Lin Yi even more was that Hera, who looked like she was in her seventies or eighties, acted like a girl in her teens, twiddling her fingers and pouting:
"How about I offer myself as your reward?"
"Ugh~"
Lin Yi stared at the old woman before him, suppressing his urge to vomit, and gave her a thumbs-up:
"You win!"
Then Lin Yi couldn’t hold it any longer, bolted out like the wind, and disappeared from Hera’s sight in a blink.
At this moment, Lin Yi felt utterly exasperated.
Oh my... this woman is even more shameless than Albert, really can’t stand it.
Watching Lin Yi run off, Hera, who earlier had a coy demeanor, lightly laughed:
"Trying to get benefits from me, you still need more practice."
Suddenly a puff of green smoke rose, and Hera instantly returned to her youthful appearance with long black hair.
And those drool-worthy beautiful features reverted to their previous icy demeanor, she spoke sternly:
"Come forth!"
In an instant, dozens of Phantom Assassins appeared beside Hera:
"Yes, Clan Leader."
Hera commanded with authority:
"This farce has gone on long enough."
But just then, Hera’s expression changed suddenly!
She swiftly reached for her waist, where there should’ve been a blood-red jade pendant.
But now it was empty.
Hera suddenly thought of Lin Yi running out earlier, from by her side...
Following this realization, Hera let out a spontaneous chuckle:
"Such nerve, daring to steal my possessions."
At this moment, information on the location of the jade pendant appeared before Hera:
System: "Confirm punishment for theft on target?"
[Confirm][Cancel]
[Cancel]
System: "Confirm unbinding [Blood Jade]?"
[Confirm][Cancel]
[Confirm]
"Clan Leader, what’s wrong?"
Hera froze for a moment, then returned to her icy demeanor:
"Nothing."
"Let’s proceed."
...
A figure suddenly appeared in the Teleportation Array of White Tiger City.
Lin Yi walked out of the Teleportation Array with a gleeful expression, raised an eyebrow towards the direction of the Succubus Race, and said:
"You withheld my rewards, but now we’re even!"
Then Lin Yi took out from his backpack a blood-red jade pendant, which seemed like just a decoration, and when he saw its attributes, his eyes widened as if he’d seen a ghost:
"What the heck, this damn..."

Lin Yi subconsciously swallowed, thinking it was just a useless trinket to vent his frustration.
But he didn’t expect to grab a Mythical Level equipment.
"Darn, I really hit the jackpot this time."
Should I return it?
Seeing the equipment’s tier, Lin Yi suddenly felt nervous.
No matter what, that old woman is a Level 68 Legendary character, if she comes looking for me, I wouldn’t know how I’d die.
However, Lin Yi also thought: after resolving such a huge crisis for her and the Succubus Race, taking a Mythical Level equipment doesn’t seem too excessive, does it?
Thinking this way, Lin Yi wasn’t too burdened and straightforwardly used the equipment:
"Bind it first, even if she discovers later, it will be too late."
After binding the [Blood Jade], Lin Yi now had three pieces of Mythical Level equipment on him, could it be unique in the game?
Then Lin Yi examined the Legendary equipment rewarded by the system:
[Fog Shadow Boots]Lv34 Legendary
The attributes were considered standard among the Legendary Level equipment, only one trait that causes temporary blindness to opponents was particularly eye-catching.
However, Lin Yi himself now had [Great Mage’s Boots] Legendary, though with a Level 20 and inferior attributes.
But the immunity to all slowdown magic in the [Great Mage’s Boots] was something Lin Yi quite liked.
Nevertheless, Lin Yi chose to replace the [Great Mage’s Boots].
After all, the attributes of [Fog Shadow Boots] were nearly three times more than [Great Mage’s Boots], the strength difference was obvious.
Moreover, the active control skill carried by [Fog Shadow Boots] would also play a bigger role in future battles.
After changing equipment, Lin Yi turned his attention to the last Pet Egg:
[Golden Battle Tiger] Unhatched
Tier: Rare
"The Three-eyed Striped Tiger in Golden Battle Armor can clear all obstacles in front of you."
Lin Yi looked at the attributes and found them quite good.
Then Lin Yi promptly posted this Pet Egg in the Mercenary Corps channel.
Feng Hua (Mercenary Corps Leader): "[Golden Battle Tiger]."
Feng Hua (Mercenary Corps Leader): "Just got a Pet Egg, discuss among yourselves who gets it, I’m logging off for some rest."
After sending the message, Lin Yi chose to exit the game.
