Battle Online: My Luck Is So High It's Basically Cheating

Soon, Lucien followed the Law Enforcement Squad member to a luxurious mansion.

Upon entering the main hall, he saw the Captain of the Law Enforcement Team sitting in the main seat, dressed in casual clothing and taking a short rest.

However, the person’s aura at this moment seemed somewhat listless.

Seeing Lucien arrive, he forced himself to perk up and said with a smile, "You’re here! Sit!"

After Lucien sat down, the other party got straight to the point, "I heard that you have cleared the twelve floors of the Xuanming Pagoda. I wonder if you have retrieved my bracelet?"

Lucien nodded and said, "I have fulfilled the mission."

With that, he took out the bracelet and handed it over.

The Captain of the Law Enforcement Team took the bracelet impatiently, examined it for a moment, and then put it directly on his wrist.

Immediately after, his other equipment appeared on his body.

The equipment emitted a green light that enveloped his entire body.

In just a short while, he seemed to be reborn; the listless aura that had enveloped him was completely swept away.

Perhaps it was just an illusion, but Lucien felt that the other party’s strength had increased.

It seemed that this bracelet had given him a significant boost!

Furthermore, it seemed to be part of a set, possessing unknown skills, which appeared to be of the recovery type.

Once everything was settled, the Captain of the Law Enforcement Team spoke up, "Thank you so much for this. If it weren’t for you, I don’t know when I would have been able to get this bracelet back!"

After saying that, he took out a dark gold treasure box from his backpack and handed it to Lucien.

"Ding, congratulations on completing the quest. You have obtained a Level 20 dark gold equipment selection box."

dark gold equipment selection box: Allows you to choose any piece of Level 20 dark gold equipment.

"Little brother, if you have any trouble, just tell me. As long as I can help, I absolutely will!"

Looking at the Captain of the Law Enforcement Team’s grateful expression, Lucien suddenly remembered something; perhaps the other party might know about it.

"I would like to ask, how can I obtain my own fief?"

Hearing that Lucien actually wanted to obtain a fief, the Captain of the Law Enforcement Team was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "Little brother, even if you have your own territory, it is not so easy to manage."

"Since the establishment of the Jiuzhou Empire, many territories have been granted, but in the end, they were all mismanaged and ultimately declined."

"After all, even if you have your own fief and can collect taxes, the Jiuzhou Empire has strict tax standards."

"So, if you want to make a profit, I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible!"

Lucien didn’t pay much attention to this. In the future, the Gods Guild had obtained a territory.

However, it was wiped out by the Jiuzhou Empire in just two short months.

The reason was that they had too many harsh levies and miscellaneous taxes.

In the Jiuzhou Empire, the comprehensive tax rate could not exceed 20 points, but the Gods Guild immediately set it to sixty percent, and on top of that, they had all kinds of management fees, which directly aroused the dissatisfaction of the Jiuzhou Empire and led to their suppression.

However, Lucien was not worried. The most important reason he wanted a territory was not to make money, but to complete his hidden quest.

Lucien asked with a relaxed expression, "I have a quest that requires me to have my own territory to proceed to the next stage."

The Captain of the Law Enforcement Team suddenly realized; so that was what it was about.

He then spoke directly, "If you want a territory, there are only a few ways to do it."

"First, you can become an official in the imperial court; if you gain the Emperor’s appreciation, you will have a chance to obtain a fief."

"Second, if you have enough Reputation and obtain a guild founding token, you can report it to the imperial court and choose an ownerless area to become your fief!"

Hearing that obtaining a fief was so troublesome, Lucien couldn’t help but frown.

"Is there any simpler way?"

The Captain of the Law Enforcement Team thought for a moment and said, "There will be a National War in half a year. If you gain enough points in the National War, you can also exchange points for a fief. However, very few people are willing to do this. After all, points can be exchanged for various equipment, and everyone is trying their best to improve their own strength, so very few people go to exchange for a fief!"

Of the three methods, in Lucien’s view, none were easy to achieve.

As for the first method, he had never heard of any way to join the imperial court of the Jiuzhou Empire within the game Battle Online.

He knew about the third method, and he also had a chance to obtain a large number of points.

However, there were too many variables in the National War, even if his strength was already at the top among players.

But the National War did not just involve players; Native Residents would also participate.

And because the players’ levels were too low, it would not be easy to achieve outstanding results.

Among them, the simplest one should be the second method: establishing a guild himself.

He currently had twenty thousand points of Reputation. As long as he had fifty thousand Reputation and a guild founding token, he could establish a guild.

A guild was actually an upgraded version of a clan. Anyone could establish a clan, but to upgrade from a clan to a guild, a guild founding token was required.

And if one wanted a territory, they must have fifty thousand Reputation.

The more Reputation one had, the larger the territory one could apply for.

As for the guild founding token, it could only be dropped by a Dark Gold Boss above level 50 or an Immortal Rank BOSS above level 31.

And right now, Lucien could at most deal with a level 30 Dark Gold Boss; level 30 was a turning point.

It was a turning point for both humans and monsters.

With Lucien’s current level, wanting to deal with a level 50 Dark Gold Boss was undoubtedly a pipe dream.

As for an Immortal Rank BOSS above level 30, Lucien didn’t even dare to think about it.

The attributes and skills of an Immortal Rank BOSS were simply too abnormal.

Even if he were level 50 and wearing a full set of dark gold equipment, Lucien couldn’t guarantee that he could defeat one.

After knowing what he wanted, Lucien nodded silently.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered that since his quest was already completed, he should return the eye of the demon god.

Looking at the eye of the demon god in his hand, there was a trace of reluctance in Lucien’s eyes.

This eye of the demon god, not counting its inherent skills, increased his combat power by almost twofold just from the added attributes.

Naturally, Lucien felt very reluctant.

The Captain of the Law Enforcement Team seemed to notice the reluctance in Lucien’s eyes.

"Although a magic artifact is powerful, even exceeding divine artifacts, the price of using a magic artifact is too high."

"If you obtain a magic artifact or ghost artifact in the future, you must be careful when using them!"

Lucien nodded. He had indeed realized that regardless of whether it was a ghost artifact or a magic artifact, there was a huge price to pay whenever its special skills were used.

Especially the magic artifacts and ghost artifacts that reduced one’s Luck; they were absolutely deserving of their names.

Equipment that could increase one’s Luck was something one could only hope for but not seek; furthermore, only equipment at the dark gold level or higher could possibly increase one’s Luck.

As for rare treasures that increased one’s Luck points, they were even rarer. Any rare treasure that increased one’s Luck was at least an Immortal Grade material.

And among all rare treasures, only those that increased one’s Luck had the highest price.

However, Lucien could not only increase his Luck by one point every seven days, but he could even be immune to the negative effects of reduced Luck.

Therefore, for others, the cost of using magic artifacts and ghost artifacts was high, but for Lucien, there were simply no negative effects at all.

The Captain of the Law Enforcement Team did not take the necklace Lucien handed over, but continued, "I have a letter of introduction here. You can go to the City Lord’s Mansion and find the City Lord. If you can seize the opportunity, he might give this magic artifact to you!"

Although a magic artifact is precious, for the vast majority of people, very few can withstand the side effects brought about by a magic artifact or ghost artifact.

This is also the reason why magic artifacts are generally more powerful than divine artifacts.

It is precisely because both magic artifacts and ghost artifacts have side effects.

It is estimated that only Lucien, because of his special talent, can minimize the side effects when using magic artifacts or ghost artifacts, and can also bring out the maximum potential of magic artifacts and ghost artifacts.
