5 Return to the game (3)

"Say what?" Chris shouted out loudly when he saw what he drew from the crates. Luckily he was still in the selection room and has yet to enter the actual game.

If anybody found out the contents that he obtained from those premium crates, they might either hunt him down or kneel before him and beg him to take them as his followers.

The first crate, the diamond crate gave him 10,000 Luck.

Luck is an attribute that is not easy to increase.

The only way luck would increase is from the quests or as rewards from the system for achieving something momentous. Only when someone achieves a feat, they would get an increase in luck.

Now he got 10,000 luck value in the diamond crate, which increased everything that he would receive from that moment onwards.

Luck decides whether we would have a fortuitous encounter and gain something or not. It also decides the drop rate from the defeated opponents. Increases chances to find hidden missions and treasures.

We can clearly see the change that happened in Chris's fortune when he opened the five platinum crates after his luck value increased.

The five items he got are something that one would gain from a diamond crate rather than a platinum one but it changed because of his luck, to be precise his increased luck.

If luck is on his side, there is nothing to fear. He could find every treasure and secret he wanted. The only issue with such luck was that he would often get involved in a lot of messes. Things could go super awful in seconds, in such a situation.

He would come out unscathed. To be honest he could come out much better than what he was before but it may not be the case for the ones around him. He may not be the one who causes the problems for those around him but one can increase power when there are struggles.

So possessing too much luck would mean that his strength has to increase to a level above and beyond what normal people won't be able to gain. This would mean there would be constant struggles that he had to go through.

If the people around him are weak then they could easily lose lives. It may not be a problem until Version 3.0, where everyone would learn that the game is not a game and they too could lose lives.

Chris carefully checked the notification about what exactly he got from the platinum crates. Every one of those items is considered precious.

[You have obtained 1 Ultimate Bloodline Voucher; Ultimate Profession Advancement Scroll (Unique); Passive Skill Voucher; Reverse Analysis; Talent Voucher (SSS)]

Ultimate Bloodline Voucher, he didn't understand what the Ultimate means but he understood that the voucher is something that could help him choose a powerful bloodline for himself. Bloodlines play a major role in a magical world. Some increase physical prowess and some increase magical prowess. It was useful for the human race as they didn't possess any racial advantages.

Then comes the Advancement Scroll, which is required after one reaches level 10. Until one reaches level 10, they would only have a basic profession. Once one crosses level 10, they can choose any advanced profession they want as long as they have the scroll for that profession and the profession is connected with their basic profession.

Looking at the name, he instinctively knew that it was something powerful and the name itself says that it's unique. Once he chooses the profession, until he dies no one would be able to possess that profession. Unique professions are powerful but are also difficult to advance. Even then many prefer them as they give an edge over other professions.

The next are a Passive SKill voucher and a Talent voucher and both of them are SSS grade. They sit at the top when one considers the grade. The grade doesn't determine their strength but their potential. The strength depends on the user and how well he would use them.

Moreover, a passive skill is something everyone would kill over. It doesn't consume mana but the one who has the skill would get benefits. It was like earning income while sitting and doing nothing else.

Talent determines the potential of a person. With great talent, one could reach higher positions without much work but to reach such a position strength is required or someone would get rid of you.

Out of the five, he directly got a skill, Reverse Analysis. It is a broken skill, that lets one copy skills/spells of others. It would save a lot of money for him.

Out of these, he could use all four but one, as it needed him to be at level 10 but he decided to use only one and it was the bloodline selection voucher.

There was a reason for it.

When one truly enters the game, they get a free crate. It contains 100 copper, one set of common clothes, one weapon depending on the profession and a talent voucher.

When they use the voucher, it won't always work. Many fail to awaken a talent. It doesn't matter as there are talent stones which can be used to get a talent but they aren't easy to get.

In his previous life, he obtained a talent normally and it was the only reason that he was able to rise, even though he entered late. The talent was something he was most used to.

He didn't know if it would disappear if he used the SSS-grade voucher. He wanted to check whether his own talent would be replaced or a new one would be added. To check that, he couldn't use the talent voucher now.

Once he gets his bloodline upgraded, he may get better benefits when he uses the other vouchers or that's what he thought. So he postponed opening the two other vouchers after entering the game.

"Use the Ultimate Bloodline Voucher"

[Do you want to use Ultimate Bloodline Voucher?]

[Yes/No]

"Yes"

[Using the Ultimate Bloodline Voucher.]

[Ding!]

[Please check the bloodlines available and choose one.]

Once the voucher was used a lot of options appeared in front of him. Every bloodline here came from something mythical, more than a mythical.

[Primordial Dragon] [Primordial Kraken] [Primordial Phoenix] …

Everything that appeared had a prefix Primordial and every being is something everyone considered a mythical magic beast.

"Wow", Chris was stunned for a moment when he saw the options.

He checked the names one by one and the more he saw the names, the more his heart started to beat up.

After a few minutes, his eyes finally landed on a bloodline, which appeared to be there for him.

"I choose Primordial Void Dragon Bloodline".

[Please confirm the selection.]

"Yes, I confirm".

[Bloodline is selected.]

[Please wait, while your bloodline is altered and upgraded.]

"Aaargghhhh...it hurts...why does it hurt more than when one dies", he cried out.

A few minutes later the boy fell unconscious due to the pain.
