It doesn't hurt to give it a try, after all, there's nothing to lose.
While thinking about this, Gu Mo still used his mind to choose the purchase option. Although he regretted it was just a piece of jade fragment, the price was certainly affordable, and the fragment wasn't useless. According to the plot's expression, the bonuses that came with the fragment were exceptionally powerful.
Many Demons who got just one fragment suddenly became powerful, making life miserable for the protagonist group...
"Detected that you don't have a Copper Key, would you like to split a Golden Key?" The prompt from the dog system appeared right on time, but the sound in his ears was still static noise. If it weren't for the corresponding text prompt appearing in the mirror, Gu Mo wouldn't know what was being said.
After a brief contemplation, he chose to agree.
Some things are indeed necessary. He didn't plan to exchange all three Golden Keys for high-quality items of corresponding quality. In terms of value, that would definitely be more valuable, but whether it would have any practical helpful effect at this stage was debatable.
One Golden Key turned into two Silver Keys, two Bronze Keys, and a crystalline jade fragment appeared in Gu Mo's palm.
......
"Four Souls Jade Fragment."
"Origin: Stalactite Cave behind Demon Exterminator's village."
"Quality: Rare."
"Effect 1: Using this item grants the powerful benefit of the jade, +100% Energy maximum, +100% Energy recovery rate, +100% Health Value maximum, +100% Health Value recovery rate."
"Effect 2: Using this item grants the powerful benefit of the jade, excavating the user's own Life Potential, receiving +2 Power, +2 Agility, and +2 Constitution bonus to checks. If the user possesses hidden lineage, advanced enhancement can be obtained."
"Effect 3: This item can be used as a special material. Please explore its specific use yourself."
"Effect 4: This item changes its color based on the holder's heart, its level of contamination fluctuates according to the user's inner disposition, and the item's potency will vary, potentially leading to dangerous side-effects."
"Note: Like the human heart, a jade of good and evil divides. With a pure heart, the jade's power can be used for good deeds, but once the heart is overtaken by evil, the jade will also develop in a malicious direction, with evil power increasing along with it."
......
The item in hand obviously reveals specific attributes, and Gu Mo also felt the powerful force emanating from the jade fragment.
The energy within him instantly rejoiced as if restlessly eager. It swiftly expanded and grew robust under the power instilled by the jade, akin to those fast-motion shots of plant growth in nature programs, transforming from a sapling to a much stronger entity in a short span of time.
"What an incredible boost..."
Gu Mo couldn't help marveling at the sense of new power flowing through his body.
"And it's still of rare quality."
For such a special situation, the system's pricing must be somewhat difficult to determine. Although the whole jade shattered into dozens of pieces, reducing their individual quality to a lesser grade, they still possess formidable power, far from being the most common plain quality.
If all fragments were priced at the Silver Key level, that premium would be terrifying... Actually, even if one fragment equaled one Bronze Key, altogether, it would still likely exceed the full version's true product in cost.
So now with this situation, Gu Mo exchanged a Bronze Key for a rare quality useful item. He feels he profited, while the dog system doesn't seem to incur any loss.
Though just a fragment, the attribute effects and increase ratios it offered are quite decent. Simply put, both the blue energy bar and the health bar doubled, and their recovery rates are the same. Additionally, the +2 in body attributes is rather favorable too.
While the magnitude seems slight, considering those Demons who routinely have body capabilities of eighteen or nineteen or above, a sudden increase of two Points at such a base level is incredibly intimidating... Not to mention the enhanced refinement of hidden bloodline, potentially gaining more enhancement as an added effect.
No wonder in the plot, ordinary Demons become extraordinarily difficult once they get hold of a fragment, and no wonder so many Demons, devils, and deities are utterly obsessed with this jade...
—— This is just a fragment.
Gu Mo opened his Equipment Slot and placed this pink jade fragment as one of the accessories, then unsurprisingly noticed his base attributes changed to — Power 15, Agility 13, Constitution 16, Intelligence 11, Spirit 17, Perception 11...
Perception and Intelligence remain weaker areas, but other stats looked better, though mainly due to temporary bonuses from equipment, which count as false increments rather than true Attribute Values. But it's better than nothing, and equipment performance reflects part of a player's ability.
Clenching his fist and waving it slightly, Gu Mo carefully sensed his transformation, puzzled as it seems the jade fragment hasn't brought any obvious side effects.
Could it be that he truly has a noble character and a steadfast integrity?
Therefore, even the jade fragment, when it landed in his hand, wouldn't be tainted and instantly locked in a purified state?
