Chapter 38 Alchemical Talisman

Chapter 38 Alchemical Talisman
After upgrading the Shadow Ninja Foot, there were only 130 gold coins left. Looking at the equipment purchasing interface that turned gray again, Wang Yao couldn't help but sigh. No matter which world he was in, money was always the most precious thing.

At this time, Luna had not returned yet and there was nothing to do, so Wang Yao began to look through the other equipment on the screen. Although he was already familiar with the properties of all the equipment, he was like a poor man who loved shopping. He knew he couldn't afford it for the time being, but he couldn't help but want to take a look.

However, when Wang Yao clicked on the equipment in the [Spell] column, which he least often browsed, his attention was immediately attracted by a lit primary equipment on it.

Equipment name: Alchemical Amulet.

Equipment price: 120.

Basic Attributes: +10 mana recovery every 5 seconds.

This is a very popular primary equipment among magic heroes, especially those who are very short of blue in the early stage. Basically everyone has one. Although the effect is not as good as the blue BUFF, under certain circumstances, this low-priced alchemical amulet is actually more practical than the blue BUFF.

For some reason, when Wang Yao saw the alchemical amulet on the screen, the first thing that flashed through his mind was Luna’s slightly lost expression.

Players who play Honor of Kings know that Luna is an extremely powerful magic hero. Not only does she have the ability to move, but she also has the blessing of shield and control effects. Especially in the hands of high-level players, her infinite combo under the moon was once a nightmare that prevented Wang Yao from advancing to the king.

But the hero Luna is not without weaknesses. Her skills consume a lot of mana. The shortage of mana is her fatal weakness. Generally speaking, when you encounter a high-level Luna, as long as you control her blue BUFF, it will be difficult for Luna to have room to play. Her strength is actually based on the BUFF with a continuous mana recovery effect.

And in this alien world, Luna also has similar weaknesses.

As an extremely powerful magic hero, she has always been limited by her "mana" and unable to exert her full strength. Although Luna did not complain too much on the surface, from her tone, it is not difficult to imagine a girl who was about to cry because of the predicament in front of her, but because of her strong character, she has been holding back the pain and putting on a smile. It is not difficult to imagine how difficult her journey has been in this glorious continent where heroes are born.

"Maybe I should give her a hand." Muttering to himself, Wang Yao somehow clicked on the [Buy] option. Although he was also short of gold coins at the moment, just like Luna would rush to save him without hesitation when she knew he was trapped in the wild area, he felt that he had an obligation to help this girl overcome the current difficulties.

A flash of light passed by, and a gold chain inlaid with blue gemstones fell to the ground. Wang Yao reached out and grabbed the alchemical amulet. The ring-shaped chains collided with each other, making a crisp metal collision sound, which was very pleasant to the ear.

Just like the pendants hanging in famous jewelry stores, this alchemical amulet looked very delicate. However, after holding it in his hand and looking at it for a while, Wang Yao did not feel anything unusual in his body. Perhaps he did not have the "magic power" that Luna mentioned!

I remembered that Maomao once said, "As long as you work hard, anyone has the opportunity to advance to become a hero." So, without "mana power", even if I have the possibility of becoming a hero in the future, I will never be a mage hero?

Just as Wang Yao was lost in speculation about the future direction of development, the sound of iron boots stepping on the ground came from outside the cave, and Luna came back.

Wang Yao quickly put the alchemical amulet behind him, "Why did it take so long?", and then he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

At this time, Luna's slender body was covered with a lot of things, looking like a Christmas tree full of gifts. How could she look like she was out collecting firewood? She just came back from a supermarket with a big sale!
"Hehe. I accidentally walked a little too far." Luna smiled awkwardly, but her face was filled with joy that could not be hidden. Ignoring the stunned Wang Yao, the silver-haired girl walked into the cave with a full load and began to throw her spoils on the ground.

"This firewood should be enough to last until tomorrow." Luna first threw the large bundle of firewood on her back into the middle of the cave.

"And these slices of meat were cut from the ribs of a giant eagle. I've washed them. Tonight's dinner is barbecue!" He took out a piece of meat wrapped in leaves similar to banana leaves. Judging from the size, it was estimated to weigh no less than ten pounds.

"These are fruits I picked from some fruit trees along the way. If you're hungry, eat some first. Oh, and this white one is salt fruit. It's very salty and can't be eaten. It's used as a seasoning when grilling meat."

"Oh, and this. This is the fur I peeled off from a brown bear on the way. I have cleaned it. The cave is very damp. You can use it as a cushion under your body. Don't catch a cold. Next!"

With a thud, Wang Yao, who was still in a daze, didn't have time to react. He only felt a black screen in front of his eyes, and was immediately covered by a two-meter-long bear skin.

Brown bear? Giant eagle?
Wang Yao pulled off the bear skin on his body and looked at the excited silver-haired girl in disbelief: "Are you going to clear the entire jungle?!" "No, I don't dare to go too deep. I heard that there are scary stone giants deep in the jungle." Luna said as she began to stack firewood and make a fire seriously.

Seeing Luna lying on the ground and blowing the flames with her mouth, Wang Yao couldn't help but frown. He suddenly felt that compared to being a hero, the profession of housewife might be more suitable for Luna. She was really good at living. It was just a simple camping, but she still had the mind to bring back so many things. When he was alone in the wild area, where did all these things come from?

Soon, a bonfire was lit up, and the bright flames illuminated the cave. The warm heat dispelled the dampness and coldness in the cave.

Sitting on the soft bear skin blanket, feeling the comfort of being surrounded by warmth, Wang Yao felt that this kind of camping was actually quite good, because it would make him forget the cruel experience of yesterday and the fear of the unknown tomorrow.

At this time, Luna came over, sat down next to him with her long legs together, holding a plant whose name she could not remember in her hand.

"What is this?" Wang Yao couldn't help but ask.

"This is green ash grass. I've heard from the elders in the tribe that this herb is very effective in treating wounds." Luna said as she gently lifted Wang Yao's left hand.

There were still traces of bites from wild monsters on Wang Yao's left hand. Although the bleeding had stopped, the shocking tear in the flesh still looked creepy.

Luna first used clean water to clean Wang Yao's wound to prevent bacteria from remaining. She then picked some leaves of the green ash grass, chewed them in her mouth for a while, and then spit them out and applied them to Wang Yao's wound.

It felt warm and thick, with a faint scent of sandalwood. Wang Yao's left hand subconsciously trembled slightly. Although the two were already very familiar with each other, such an intimate action still made Wang Yao's heart ripple.

"Does it hurt?" Luna asked while raising her little face as she took a clean cloth to bandage the wound.

"No, no." Wang Yao turned his head away subconsciously. At this moment, he felt his face getting a little hot.

Luna has a delicate and fair face, coupled with a gentle temperament, which always makes people feel pity for her unconsciously, especially when she raises her little white head with a concerned look on her face, her clear eyes are the most gentle.

"By the way, this, this is for you." As if to hide some kind of inner throbbing, Wang Yao took out the alchemical amulet he had just bought from behind and handed it to Luna.

"Give it to me?" Luna took the alchemical amulet in a daze. Girls generally like beautiful ornaments, and she is no exception. "It's so beautiful, can you really give it to me? Where did you get the pendant?"

"Uh, this? This is my heirloom, passed down from my grandmother's grandmother." In order to save the trouble of explaining, Wang Yao said nonsense in a serious manner, "Didn't you say that your magic power has always been weak due to your special physique? Then wear it. I heard from my grandmother that this pendant can speed up the recovery of magic power. It is very suitable for you."

Luna was a little flattered and said, "Ah? But such a precious thing, and it's your heirloom, is it really appropriate to give it to me?"

This silly girl actually believed it.

Wang Yao couldn't help but snickering as he said, "It's okay, as long as you like it. Come, I'll help you put it on."

Having said that, without paying attention to Luna who was about to say something, Wang Yao moved behind the girl and gently put the alchemical amulet on her.

"You look beautiful in it." Looking at the alchemical amulet on Luna's fair neck, Wang Yao couldn't help but smile and pat her little white head. The latter gently lowered her head, and he couldn't see her expression at the moment, but at this moment, Wang Yao seemed to feel that the girl's breathing inadvertently quickened a beat.

Maybe it's an illusion.
