Chapter 821: Chapter 540: Struggling to Move Forward_2

"Yes," Gaven nodded, "theoretically, magic cocktails can stimulate a variety of emotions. With ’Wine for Friendship’ ability, it shouldn’t be too difficult. It’s just a matter of trying a few times. If it really doesn’t work, we can consider seeking the assistance of a cleric. Now the last issue remains, the Corruption Power, Luna, do you still not have any good ideas?"

"I actually have come up with one, but for this to work, we’d need to borrow a piece of equipment from Lord," Luna’s eyes shone brightly, and her expression seemed less like someone who had found a cure and more like someone who had solved a troubling riddle.

"What equipment?"

"Regeneration Gems." Luna didn’t leave them in suspense and quickly explained, "Creatures can’t extract the Corruption Power from their bodies like plants can because they lack that tenacious regenerative ability. With the assistance of the Regeneration Gems, there wouldn’t be any concerns about that. I could extract all the Corruption Power from her body in one go. The only downside is that the process would be excruciatingly painful."

"I’m not afraid of pain," Yeshandalah said with undisguisable joy, "I’m suffering day and night now. How could any more pain be worse than this?"

"That’s easy," Gaven immediately took out an Extreme Regeneration Ring from his backpack and handed it to Yeshandalah, "Whether it works or not, we’ll know after we try."

Yeshandalah didn’t stand on ceremony. As she put on the Regeneration Ring and tuned it to activate its regenerative power, she couldn’t help but ask curiously, "Is this made from the Regeneration Gems that are unique to the Troll Mountains? Wow, five points of regenerative ability, with two uses of the Regeneration Technique per day, it’s quite powerful. Just this ring alone must be worth at least a hundred thousand Gold Coins. No wonder so many treasure hunters dive into the Troll Mountains each year."

"Treasure hunters? Do they bring out many Troll Gems from the Troll Mountains?" Gaven asked, concerned, as this related to the final sales of his Fast Healing Rings and the Regeneration Ring Series he held.

"Many go in, but few come out, and even fewer manage to bring Troll Gems with them. It’s impressive if there are three or five a year. To find a piece as big as the one you have is rare, and every successful transaction is fraught with blood and violence," Yeshandalah couldn’t help but sigh.

People die for wealth as birds die for food. Most of the population along the Giant Dragon Coast values profit above all else. A hundred thousand Gold Coins, enough for many to turn against their closest friends, enough to sell their souls to Demon Devils.

"What about the mines? Doesn’t the Giant Dragon Coast have any mines of its own?" As an attribute of Iron Ore Heart, the Regeneration Gems are more likely to be mined rather than simply found lying around.

The Regeneration Gems that Yeshandalah’s treasure hunters found were likely not just scattered all over the mountains but plundered from the hands of the Monster Tribe.

"The governance of the cities along the Giant Dragon Coast is too chaotic. No single power is strong enough to organize manpower to mine in the Troll Mountains," Yeshandalah said with an indescribable sadness in her expression. It was a tragedy to sit on a mountain of riches without being able to exploit it.

As someone born and raised on the Giant Dragon Coast, it pained her to see her homeland in such a state. From an early age, she had vowed to change everything about it.

"I see," Gaven sighed in relief. No mines meant that, for a while, he would hold a monopoly on the Regeneration Gems. He would have a certain level of price control and could maximize their value.

His gaze returned to the Regeneration Ring in Yeshandalah’s hand, and he asked, "Is the tuning complete?"

Magic Equipment isn’t simply usable upon picking it up. To utilize the magical attributes, it must be tuned to create a connection, allowing the equipment’s magical ability to integrate into the body.

The more powerful the magic item, the longer the tuning time required. For divine artifacts like Gaven’s Death Roar or the Insight Gemstone, it could take at least several hours to complete the tuning. Without tuning, it’s impossible to utilize the unique attributes and powers.

This characteristic means that on a battlefield, you can’t just pick up an enemy’s powerful weapon and use it immediately.

Similarly, it’s not feasible for countless warriors to use the same weapon unless they have already completed the tuning with that powerful weapon and left their Soul Totem imprint—like when Kellysha was able to use Gaven’s Crown Shield because Gaven allowed Kellysha to leave her Soul Totem on the shield, completing the tuning. This is a common situation among squads with similar abilities, to maximize the power of Magic Equipment.

However, there is a limit to the number of Soul Totems that a single piece of Magic Equipment can carry, which generally correlates with its own power level. A +1 can only be personal use, a +2 can carry two Soul Totems, and so on.

Once the carrying limit is exceeded, the earliest Soul Totem on the item will be erased first.

"It’s done," Yeshandalah nodded after assessing her condition.

"Luna, try to extract the Corruption Power from her body and see what kind of reaction it generates. Control the power carefully, and if anything goes wrong, terminate the process immediately," Gaven instructed gravely.
