Chapter 8: Frenzy Hatching!
Editor: Larbre Studio
Rewind Time? Since when did he have such an ability? It could even be used at Homeland?
Chen Bing was shocked, and he quickly opened the attributes panel. He had completely no idea about this ability.
[Skill: Rewind Time]
[Classification: General]
[Class: Ⅰ]
[Requires: Energy]
"Effect: Legendary skill from "Li" Homeland. When usage requirements are fulfilled, it can cause the user to return to the original point of time. At the current level, it can only make time rewind for 10 seconds. Uses a bar of energy every use."
"Energy: 5"
"Note: The strongest skill in 'Li' Homeland was destroyed when 'Li' Homeland was destroyed"
Chen Bing's attributes panel should have been empty, but when he opened it, he saw that there was clearly a "Rewind Time" skill on the panel!
Also... this skill seems too overpowered, doesn't it?
It caused time to rewind by 10 seconds? And what is the deal with 'Li' Homeland?
As Chen Bing scanned through the description of that attribute, he was utterly shocked.
He did not play games a lot, and it had been two months since he entered the game "Homeland."
However, in this period of two months, Chen Bing had experienced five Homeland games and he no longer was a newbie. Or else he would not have fought for the first place in "Magic World: Essence" alongside Absolute Beauty and Blue Moon Son.
Just from his intuition, he knew that this skill was severely overpowered!
Now, just as he wanted to hatch a pet slime egg, if it gave a useless creature, then he could rewind time and repeat the process until he got a satisfactory pet!
Not only for hatching pets, but he was also able to manipulate any mechanic that relied on luck to get what he wanted!
Chen Bing was dumbstruck. In such a huge game like "Homeland", there should not be a bug like that.
And if it could be used in the ruins of Homeland, then it meant that he could use it on any game at Homeland.
When fighting a BOSS, using rewind time just as the BOSS was about to die and repeating if the loot was not satisfactory...
"Could it be that the game has a bug?"
Chen Bing could not help but wonder.
In these two months, all the games he entered had problems, and it probably was related to the fact that he had the skill of rewinding time.
Right, in "Magic World; Essence," there was some strange text that appeared on his character interface before he left the game. Could it be that rewind time was obtained from that time?
"Use it!" Chen Bing said firmly to the Homeland servant.
It could be a bug, but who cares. Chen Bing decided that he would use it and think about the consequences later. Even if it was taken back by the system, he would not lose anything!
"Homeland Servant: 'Rewind Time' skill used!"
"Homeland Servant: Original point of time recorded!"
"Homeland Servant: You received one hour of energy-exempted rewards for using 'Li' Homeland skills for the first time!"
"Wow! Unlimited energy? Could something like that even exist?"
A few notifications from the Homeland servant popped up, and Chen Bing was restless as he looked at them.
Rewind Time only had five bars of energy, which is to say there were five times to use it. However, after using the skill, the energy bar suddenly started to burn, and there were unlimited uses in one hour!
One hour of unlimited energy, what would he be waiting for? Chen Bing only regretted that he had too few things he could utilize in his hands!
"Hatch!"
Chen Bing was even more curious about 'Li' Homeland, but there were not enough clues and the unlimited period only lasted for an hour. Chen Bing did not think too much, and decided to try rewinding time first before coming to that.
"Homeland Servant: Congratulations! You received a pet 'Battle Slime'!"
"Pet: Battle Slime"
"Quality: Level One, Common"
"Level: 1"
"HP: 25
"Physical Defense: 1"
"Magical Defense: 0"
"Attack: 2-5"
"Skill: Charging Slash"
"Charging Slash: Deals 1.5 times of damage to the enemy. Has a cooldown time of 30 seconds."
…
The egg hatched, and Chen Bing found himself facing a dark green slime that held a rusty blade.
Tch, what a weak battle slime. Even if it battled a Level 1 monster at a newbie village, it would have gotten itself killed before it could reduce the monster's health by half. Complete garbage!
"Rewind Time!"
As Rewind Time recorded the original point of time, a countdown of 10 seconds and a black return arrow appeared in front of Chen Bing.
As he came to his senses, the view in front of Chen Bing changed.
The battle slime he just hatched was gone and returned to a slime egg. The incubators in his bag returned to three!
F*ck! Time really did rewind!
This defies any law in the game!
Let's not waste time and continue hatching!
"Homeland Servant: Congratulations! You received 'Priest Slime'!"
"Pet: Priest Slime"
"Quality: Level One, Elite"
"Level: 1"
"HP: 15"
"Physical Defense: 0"
"Magical Defense:2"
"Attack: 2 - 6"
"Skill: Slime Healing"
"Slime Healing: Healing skill with normal healing effects. Heals 10 points of health immediately. Healing effects increase as slime levels up. Cooldown time of 30 seconds."
…
Priest Slime was a white slime that held a battered staff. Its attributes were slightly better than the slime, but its quality was only elite. If it was of dark gold quality, he could have sold it for quite a large sum.
"Rewind Time!"
After scanning through Priest Slime's stats, he used Rewind Time to redo the process.
"Homeland Servant: Congratulations! You have received 'Battle Slime'!"
There's this trash again. You have no use if you're not platinum legendary!
Again!
"Homeland Servant: Congratulations! You have received 'Battle Slime'!"
…
"Homeland Servant: Congratulations! You have received 'Knight Slime'!"
…
"Homeland Servant: Congratulations! You have received 'Assassin Slime'!"
…
"Homeland Servant: Congratulations! You have received 'Battle Slime'!"
…
Chen Bing hatched the slimes in a rush in two to three seconds, and one by one slimes were being hatched. However, they only had regular occupations, and their quality was mediocre, being silver at the most, and they did not have any resale value.
"Homeland Servant: Congratulations! You have received 'Angel Slime'!"
Oh my god! Angel Slime? It's a really rare slime!
In his flurry of hatching slimes, it showed up on Chen Bing's Homeland servant, and he was shocked.
There stood an elegant slime with a pair of angel wings in front of his very eyes.
Unlike the Battle Slime which was ugly and did not appeal to people, Angel Slime was pretty popular. The only slimes that could compete with it were the Athens Slime and Princess Slime.
"Pet: Angel Slime"
"Quality: Level One, Excellent"
"Level: 1"
"HP: 25"
"Physical Defence: 2"
"Magical Defence: 2"
"Attack: 3-6"
"Skills: Disperse Ⅰ, Angelic Halo (Weakened)"
"Disperse Ⅰ: Casts a debuff on the target. Cooldown of 30 seconds."
"Angelic Halo (Weakened): A special halo exclusive to the Angel Slime, has a range of 10 yards. Gives allies inside the ring Physical Defense +1, Magical Defence +1, revives 1 point of health every second. Improves effect as the amount of intelligence attribute of Angel Slime reaches a certain level."
…
"Wow! It only has good attributes?"
Angel Slime had great abilities and a rare double ability. Double abilities were quite useful for new players, and the Angel Slime was quite rare and had a cute appearance. Under normal circumstances, one had to be extremely lucky to hatch such a rare slime, and it could fetch quite a price.
However, Chen Bing was not satisfied. Only five minutes had passed, and there was still a lot of time to use the Rewind Time skill. To sell his Angel Slime took time and was not worth it in the long run.
Rewind Time!
In just a matter of seconds, Chen Bing decided that he was going to reroll the dice.
He only had a single slot for pets, and if it was occupied by the Angel Slime he could not hatch any other pet.
"Homeland Servant: Congratulations! You have received 'Knight Slime'!"
…
"Homeland Servant: Congratulations! You have received Assassin Slime'!"
…
A barrage of notifications blasted in front of Chen Bing, and most of the hatched slimes were pretty common. Chen Bing unleashed Rewind Time without any hesitation.
"Homeland Servant: Congratulations! You have received 'Missionary Slime'!"
"Pet: Missionary Slime"
"Quality: Level One, Silver"
"Level: 1"
"HP: 30"
"Physical Defense: 1"
"Magical Defense: 3"
"Attack: 3 - 7"
"Skill: Brainwash"
"Brainwash: As Missionary Slime attacks a monster, it automatically brainwashes the monster. Monsters that are successfully brainwashed will be a slave of the Missionary Slime and battle alongside it. If it is not needed, it can even order the brainwashed monster to self-destruct, causing huge amounts of damage to other monsters."
…
It was another rare slime. Missionary Slime only had a skill, but the skill was pretty good, and was not worse off than Angel Slime, which had two abilities.
However, Chen Bing looked at the slime which was only of silver quality, bit his teeth, and rewinded time again!
Silver and Gold only had a level of difference, but this difference is what made it rare and the highest grade. Chen Bing's bottom line was that the slime had to be of quality Gold!
"Homeland Servant: Congratulations! You have received 'Warrior Slime'!"
"Pet: Warrior Slime"
"Quality: Tier One, Platinum"
"Level: 1"
"HP: 50"
"Physical Defense: 10"
"Magical Defense: 8"
"Attack: 10-15"
"Abilities: Hot-Blooded, Bravery Shield"
"Hot-Blooded: Passive ability. When Warrior Slime is fighting, it has a chance to increase courage. Attack speed, attack power increase by 20%, lasts for 15 seconds."
"Bravery Shield: When Warrior Slime is attacked, it has a chance to completely negate the enemy's damage and return it to the enemy."
After giving up on the Missionary Slime, Chen Bing thought that he would need to waste some more time. Surprisingly, it turned out to be Warrior Slime.
Warrior Slime had quite a good appearance. It wore a silver helmet on its head, and held a silver shield in its left hand, and a silver dagger in its right hand. It looked mighty and heroic.
Out of all the slimes which had different occupations, Warrior Slime was not the best, but as Chen Bing scanned through Warrior Slime's attributes, his eyes widened.
Platinum quality! This Warrior Slime turned out to be of Platinum quality!
It's only one step away from Legendary!
His luck was unbelievable. It could not be guaranteed that a Legendary slime could be hatched within an hour even if he wanted it to.
Comparing its attributes, the Platinum quality slime was even stronger than Level 1 players, and its two skills were quite useful. Chen Bing did not have a reason to change it.
Infinite Energy still lasted 49 seconds, and Chen Bing still had a "Magic Box of Fate."
There were many things that could come out of the Magical Box of Fate. Homeland construction materials, special accessories, special equipment, rare abilities and much more. If one was really lucky, it may even change your life, making you the richest person overnight.
Chen Bing remembered seeing in the forums that some people even gave out millions for the special equipment that could only be found in the Magic Box of Fate.
Whether he got rich overnight, it would all depend on this Magic Box!
Use skill!
Record original point of time!
