Ye Zhongming also saw the last item in the box and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Before anything was done, gifts were given; is there really such a foolish person?
Of course not, but Haman Dan did just that, which indicates what? It means that the task he wanted Ye Zhongming to undertake was definitely very tricky.
Only by presenting something that could entice you first, could he make it impossible for you to refuse the conditions he would state next.
It must be said that Haman Dan appeared unreliable, but when it comes to getting things done, he was quite impressive.
However, through this incident, Ye Zhongming gained a new understanding of the West Asian Royal Family.
This person was far from being as simple as he seemed.
Without even mentioning anything else, the second item he presented, which was the disc for synthesizing the next magic crystal, was a glaring trap.
No matter how well Haman Dan spoke of that disc, no matter how precious he claimed it to be, or how advanced the technology was, it could not change the limitation of that item; it had only one function—synthesizing the next magic crystal.
And to synthesize the next magic crystal, one must possess the next magic crystal. So, the question arises: how to obtain it?
There was only one way, to kill those sand-type monsters.
But those sand-type monsters were very dangerous, and Ye Zhongming had experienced this firsthand, especially with those mutated cacti; their final attack was simply hard to guard against.
Wanting to kill more of these monsters to obtain the next magic crystal would undoubtedly come at a cost.
And don’t be fooled by Haman Dan giving away this synth disc that could only be made by someone from the royal family, and is extremely rare, or even promising Ye Zhongming the freedom to exchange it; what was it all for? Ultimately, it was to use Ye Zhongming to clean up the out-of-control sand-type monsters for these West Asians and those fake roulettes!
Moreover, if Ye Zhongming wanted to exchange for good items, he had to clear out the monsters at the Star Roulette Mother Disc first.
But that place was currently a death trap.
From this, it can be seen that Haman Dan's gift was not that easy to accept.
As for the third item, Ye Zhongming recognized it.
It was a craftsmanship essence.
Intermediate craftsmanship essence.
"I noticed you were an excellent craftsman back at the Sea King Disk, so I thought this item would be something you needed. This is craftsmanship essence, which can raise the level of manufacturing professions and permanently increase the success rate of manufacturing."
Haman Dan didn’t elaborate much on this piece of equipment; one, because there isn’t much to say about the item itself, two sentences were enough to summarize it, and two, he believed that the simpler the statement, the more it could highlight the value of the item.
Raising the level of a manufacturing profession was equivalent to having a very precious Class Promotion Scroll.
Permanently increasing the success rate further means saving a large amount of materials, and all of that, accumulated, represents unimaginable wealth. To put it in simpler terms, all of this is an Evolution Potion, which is akin to life.
This item was indeed precious, extremely precious, but why give it away so easily?
Ye Zhongming was clear in his mind!
It was definitely because this guy didn’t have an initial craftsmanship essence.
Is intermediate craftsmanship essence so easy to use? Clearly not! Strictly speaking, this is actually a type of upgrade item, only those who have obtained an initial craftsmanship essence can use it. Haman Dan took this out not because he was generous, but because he certainly did not have an initial craftsmanship essence.
Just by looking at what he gave to Ye Zhongming, can you tell if it was precious? Indeed precious, but whether it was the assistance crystal like the sand hand or the disc like the synthesis equipment, neither was unique or particularly difficult to obtain.
