7. 31,094 Points – Katanaou – Toyo Zone

8. 27,081 Points – Cassio – Southeast Asian Zone

9. 20,443 Points – xxx – Chinese Zone

10. 17,033 Points – Idross – North European Zone

The top 10 of the Leaderboard all won an extreme number of points, which showed how bellicose these zones were.

Obviously, the North American Zone, Chinese Zone, and Toyo Zone were the most prominent. They all had two players entered on the top 10 respectively, indicating how fiercely they fought.

The fourth and ninth players on the Leaderboard, who were both from the Chinese Zone, attracted Xiaofeng’s attention. They both hid their character names. Other Chinese players might have thought that Xiaofeng was one of them. Nobody knew that Xiaofeng had only gained about 3,000 points and did not have any position on the Leaderboard at all.

Xiaofeng thought about those from Bleak and shook his head.

The Leaderboard only reflected the major zones’ strengths in some way, and it could not distinguish them, since the Leaderboard was changing all the time. During the short half-minute when Xiaofeng was browsing it, two names of the top 10 were replaced. At the same time, the treasure points increased again.

Xiaofeng shook his head and closed the Leaderboard. He reached the center area of the Treasure Island, and then began to look around for the Bonus Area informed by the system.

During this time, Xiaofeng phoned Qian Duoduo, telling her that the event would last for the whole day, and that he might go offline at any time. He also made a note to her to always find a safe place before going offline.

Qian Duoduo guaranteed that she would take good care of Xiao Ling for Xiaofeng, and supervise Xiao Ling to eat enough vegetables. Xiaofeng felt less anxious due to her help.

It did not take much time for Xiaofeng to find the Bonus Area. It was not that difficult, since the area was rather conspicuous.

Treasure Island’s terrain was lower at the edges and higher in the center. There were a couple of hills at the island’s center, one of which was reduced to a short and flat place—quite a large valley area.

In this flat valley area, a round Magic Formation was shining, lighting the whole Bonus Area. There were many NPCs and system facilities, such as the rule introduction board and the big lucky drawing machine.

“Hmm?”

When Xiaofeng stepped into the light Magic Formation, the system immediately informed him that he had arrived in the safe area, the Bonus Area. However, Xiaofeng then realized that there was someone else there.

There was only one person, with his back to Xiaofeng. It was a Westerner with blond hair, holding a magic staff—his profession should be mage—looking at the rules introduction board. He seemed to have just arrived here as well.

Xiaofeng couldn’t see his face. However, the character name floating on the Westerner’s head caught his eyes.

“It’s Thor!

“No. 1 on the Leaderboard! That North American Zone player!”

Xiaofeng saw the Treasure Island Raid Leaderboard in the sky again. It was Thor! That Westerner in front of him was indeed No. 1 on the Leaderboard!

Xiaofeng was surprised that there was someone reaching the Bonus Area quicker than he did. Considering how fast Xiaoxue moved, Thor, who arrived before Xiaofeng, should have either more incredible speed, or a mount that was as capable as Xiaoxue.

Xiaofeng had even taken quite a lot of time on killing treasure box creeps. Thor, the top one on the Leaderboard, must have spent more time on his way. After all, it was impossible for him to have left for here directly. He had to kill a mass of creeps and players along the way. The time he had spent on the way should be no less than that of Xiaofeng.

Obviously, Thor also realized that there was somebody else in the Bonus Area and he looked back at Xiaofeng. Thor had a handsome Western appearance, with his eyes dark blue. He checked Xiaofeng’s character name, only to find that it was hidden. Then, he stopped staring, and left the rule introduction board, leaving for the huge lucky drawing machine in the center of the Bonus Area.

Xiaofeng did not take the initiative to talk with Thor. He just went to the rule introduction board and had a look.

The Bonus Area had very simple rules. There was a row of NPCs, each of whom was responsible for a kind of bonus redeeming. For example, the first NPC redeemed attributes, and the second pet eggs, skill books, armors, etc. They were responsible for different things.

Players got to know the required points for redeeming of different levels from NPCs’ shops.

In addition to the NPCs who were responsible for redeeming bonuses, there was a lucky drawing machine at the center. It cost 10,000 points to draw a raffle. The prize was random and unknown.

It was particularly noted that the lucky drawing machine might pop up a big surprise, or nothing. So those who trusted their good luck should gamble for the surprising big prize!

“10,000 points for a draw?”

Xiaofeng was slightly surprised. After thinking for a while, he finally came to the row of NPCs and checked their shops. The first he checked was the one redeeming attributes.

Red Attributes

Amount: 1

Redeem Demand: 10,000 Treasure Points

Effect: 100 Professional Skill Proficiency

Blue Attributes

Amount: 1

Redeem Demand: 10,000 Treasure Points

Effect: 100 Non-combative Skill Proficiency

“10,000 points at least?”

Xiaofeng was shocked. It took 100 proficiency to upgrade a skill from level 1 to level 2, for which 10,000 points were needed—that was acceptable. But upgrading from level 2 to level 3 required 500 proficiency, which meant 50,000 treasure points.

Upgrading from level 3 to level 4 required 1,000 proficiency, so it would be 100,000 treasure points!

Xiaofeng’s most potent skill was the Hammer of Judgment, which could be upgraded to level 5 at the most. But the required treasure points was too… He could not imagine this further.

Thinking about the only 3,000 treasure points he had, Xiaofeng turned to the second NPC, who redeemed pet eggs. Xiaofeng did not need any more pets now, but he wondered about the prices.

Xiaofeng felt awkward, only to find that it also took at least 10,000 points to redeem. Refined pet eggs took 10,000 points, rare ones 100,000 points, silver ones 500,000 points, golden ones 1,000,000 points, and fairy ones 5,000,000 points.

This shop could even redeem fairy pets. Xiaofeng deeply knew how mighty a fairy pet was from his own fairy pet Xiaobai. But the requirement of 5,000,000 points was incredible enough to make people speechless.

After that, he went to the NPC exchanging skill books. It also took at least 10,000 points. General skill books took 10,000 points, refined ones 100,000 points, and rare ones 500,000 points, which was the highest. There were no mightier ones here.

Having checked several shops, Xiaofeng went to the final ones. The NPC redeeming equipment, who he cared about the most, was here. Xiaofeng took a deep breath and made a full psychological preparation before opening the redeeming shop. But he only found that it also took at least 10,000 points.

Each rare piece of equipment took 10,000 points. Buyers could choose its level, but it had no attributes or additional effects like extra skills. Fortunately, the price was reasonable. 70,000 points could redeem a set of seven armors. Rare weapons took 50,000 treasure points, which was five times the price of rare armors.

As for silver equipment, buyers could choose their levels. Each piece took 50,000 points—only 350,000 for a set. Silver weapons took 250,000 points per piece, which was also five times that of the silver armor. But silver equipment only had attributes, like strength, intelligence, attack, and defense, with no extra skills.

Golden Equipment also took 100,000 points for each one. Their levels could be chosen by the buyer but they only had basic attributes as well. An outfit with a weapon took 1,200,000 points in total.

Having checked all of these, Xiaofeng frowned and thought, “Could this event’s final artifact prize only have attributes but with no extra skills?

“How does this happen? This’s absolutely a cheat! An artifact without an extra skill? It has no soul!”

However, Xiaofeng continued to browse and got to know the redeeming information of a set of immortal equipment with similar attributes. But he found that there was nothing else after the immortal equipment.

“Hmm? Where’s the artifact?”

Xiaofeng was shocked by the fact that the equipment redeeming NPC only provided immortal equipment at most, without better ones.

“Where’s the artifact?”

Xiaofeng was stunned and turned to the next one, the NPC redeeming accessories. This was the final redeeming NPC.

Like the redeemed equipment, the redeemed accessories here only had attributes including HP, HP Regen, speed, critical strike, accuracy, and parry, with no extra skills. Even the redeemed immortal accessories, just with higher attributes, had no extra skills. These immortal equipment had no souls either.

However, the final NPC’s redeeming shop still had no artifacts.

“What happened?”

Xiaofeng was sure that he had skimmed every detail. But none of these NPCs’ shops had artifacts. There was no doubt that the final prize of this server-wide event was definitely artifacts.

Xiaofeng was puzzled. He thought for a while and went back to the rule introduction board, reading the rules carefully again and again. Still finding nothing else, he finally noticed the last sentence.

“If you have good luck, just gamble for the surprising big prize!”

“No way!”

Xiaofeng muttered to himself, incredulously gazing at the huge lucky drawing machine in the center.

Coincidentally, Thor took action after staying in front of the lucky drawing machine for a long time. This undoubtedly showed that Xiaofeng’s guess was correct. Thor drew a raffle. With more than 50,000 points, he could have five consecutive draws.

There was a screen on the lucky drawing machine, telling the result of the drawing.

“Congratulations, Thor! You win a—’Thanks for Your Participation’.”

“Congratulations, Thor! You win a—’Thanks for Your Participation’.”

“Congratulations, Thor! You win a—’Thanks for Your Participation’.”

“Congratulations, Thor! You win a—’Thanks for Your Participation’.”

“Congratulations, Thor! You win a—’Thanks for Your Participation’.”
