"Thank you for the great love and rewards, and thank you, Eumenides Dad, for your 588. I wish you a smooth military career! Also, thanks to many supporters like Cold Autumn and Hundred Battles. Old Phantom also thanks all the brothers here."
After putting aside the captured spoils, Xiao Min saw that her cold captain had no intention of speaking, so she could only explain the situation of these spoils on behalf of Xia Bai and Ye Zhongming.
"This is the blanket that we had limited means of dealing with. We thought it would be the most valuable item, but it seems a bit different from what we imagined."
The blanket had transformed into an object only the size of a basin. When Ye Zhongming took it in his hand and casually used his glorious artisan professional skill, some information flooded into his mind.
"Aedok Flying Carpet!"
"Ability 1: Mental Container. Reduces damage from all skills activated by mental power by 90%."
"Ability 2: Indestructible. Increases durability by 300%."
"Ability 3: Extension. Can increase or decrease the coverage area of the flying carpet according to circumstances, with durability inversely proportional to the area of the carpet."
Seeing these attributes, Ye Zhongming roughly understood this equipment that had caused headaches for the entire Ying City Coalition.
Although the basic durability was not specified, it was likely to be a terrifying number. Moreover, due to Ability 2 being indestructible, this durability would increase threefold. Combined with Ability 1's Mental Container, this Aedok Flying Carpet could withstand the long-range attacks of the Ying City Coalition for so long.
Ability 3 also explained why that battle team stayed close together; this would allow for higher durability.
However, the carpet emitted no glow, which indicated one of two things: either the Aedok Flying Carpet was an extremely special piece of equipment that exceeded normal rating ranges, or it was an item with a level above gold that could hide its representative halo of level.
Ye Zhongming investigated and found it to be the first case.
This was an irreparable piece of equipment!
He initially thought he had found a treasure, but who would have thought it would turn out to be this way? No wonder Xiao Min mentioned it was different from her imagination, as cracks had already appeared on the carpet.
No wonder the durability was high and the three abilities were impressive; it turned out this item was irreparable!
This was a bit awkward. He thought he had found a gem, but it was already on the verge of breaking. Judging by the signs, it seemed the durability of this flying carpet was running low.
Ye Zhongming pondered for a moment and, in a fluke, took out the Treasure-Holding Gourd to see if it could be repaired inside, considering the Aedok Flying Carpet had no level.
However, to Ye Zhongming's disappointment, perhaps due to it being a special equipment with no level, the repair ability of the Treasure-Holding Gourd showed no reaction at all.
Ye Zhongming then tried the devour treasure ability. He originally didn't hold much hope but was surprised to get a prompt indicating he could devour it.
Since the durability was already on the brink of zero, Ye Zhongming directly agreed.
The devour treasure ability of the Treasure-Holding Gourd would allow it to accumulate energy. Whether using repair ability or treasure-holding ability required energy. The gourd itself also needed energy to upgrade.
During this phase, one of the businesses of the Cloud Summit Exchange was to cheaply acquire damaged weapons and equipment, all to provide energy for the Treasure-Holding Gourd.
Unlike the Gate of Sacrifice, the exact amount of energy in the Treasure-Holding Gourd would only show hints when using its three abilities. After devouring this carpet, Ye Zhongming "saw" that the energy was not far from the next upgrade.
After using a universal equipment upgrade scroll to upgrade the Treasure-Holding Gourd from silver to green, Ye Zhongming had been very focused on accumulating energy for this item. Besides repairing a few pieces of equipment and nurturing a batch of armor, he had hardly used this item, aiming to quickly accumulate enough energy to upgrade it. After all, the higher the level of this equipment, the greater its potential.
