Civilization
322 Chapter 322 - So Many Rewards!
Landing on the ground, I see Rebecca and Nina grinning ear to ear as they hold onto their random gift boxes. Who doesn't love a bit of gambling am I right?
"Hey! No fair, you got 3 boxes!" - Nina
"Yea, it is because I'm the Lord of HavenFall, so I receive the most benefits when we get a high ranking. Especially since HavenFall has received first place!" - Ian
"Well, who wants to go first?" - Rebecca
Both Nina and I look at Rebecca, the moment she asks the question.
"Aren't you the luckiest one here? Goddess of Fortuna's apostle." - Nina
"Ah… Hahaha! You're right! Then… Let's open it up!" - Rebecca
Pulling the ribbon, Rebecca casual look starts to make me nervous, as I lean in a bit, edging closer to the box. Even though I can't see anything, it felt like I was able to see the object just by going closer. The moment the ribbon is untied a golden light appears from the box as the lid flies off, but then suddenly the golden light starts to have purple highlights. The ribbon twists and turns around the box as it starts to turn purple much like my unique random gift box.
"Wait… NO WAY!" - Ian
"High luck stat… Disgusting." - Nina
The light recedes into the box, and Rebecca picks up an emerald four-leaf clover. It glitters in the light as a faint emerald aura wraps around the four-leaf clover. Checking out the description of the object, Rebecca smiles to herself before passing it to Nina and then to me, so that we could all have a look.
[Four-Leaf Clover Brooch
+10 Agility
+10 Intelligence
+10 Luck
Skill: Lucky Leprechaun (Passive)
An emerald four-leaf clover brooch with a golden pin behind it to secure itself to most clothing. It was a symbol of status with small humanoid beings, depicting the wealth of the wearer.
Made by Lucky]
Lucky Leprechaun (Passive) - Upon using a skill where there is a 'Chance' of success, boost the chances of a positive result by 20%. Also, boost the chances of better results upon opening/finding/using ancient ruins or treasure chest, by 20%.
"Guess, I'm just going to be more lucky am I right babe?" - Rebecca
"Funny. Very funny. You know I used to think my Luck stat was pretty high, but then I see yours and I want to cry." - Ian
"Don't complain, Ian. Your Luck stat is definitely in the top 5. Rebeca is just in a different league. Whatever, time to unbox my gift. Although it won't be as amazing as Rebecca's, I doubt all 3 of your gift boxes will be as amazing as hers, Ian." - Nina
Nina starts to pull the ribbon off her random gift box as well, and despite the lack of confidence when she was just talking, you can see the visible excitement on her face. With bated breath, the lid of the gift box is lifted and a golden lift shines out. This time it stays golden, as it shines brightly before revealing a book.
"A skill book?" - Nina
Reaching inside the box, Nina pulls out the book, while look at the description, and to her surprise it was something that was just as good if not better than a skill book. Letting out a whistle, she hands it to Rebecca and I to have a look and I gave her a good nod as I read the description of the item that she received from the random gift box.
[Intermediate Tome of Succession
An item used by mages in order to upgrade a Magic Book to Intermediate grade. It can be used on any Magic Book that is of Beginner grade. Place the Magic Book on top of the Tome of Succession to upgrade. 1/1 Uses]
"Are you going to use it right now?" - Rebecca
"Why not right? No use delaying something that will always happen." - Nina
Bringing out the Beginner Fire Mage Book, Nina places it on top of the Tome of Succession. From my understanding of her current magic book she has unlocked 3 out of the 5 spells, Fire Bolt, Ignite, and Cage of Fire. There was no set method to why the spells were unlocked, but maybe after this item upgrades the Magic Book she will gain more skills.
A blazing bright crimson flame engulfs the books, swirling around in a spiral before slowly dispersing into the air revealing the new look of Nina's Magic Book. Previously it looks like a run-down bred book, with yellowish white pages, however after the upgrade its appearance was also upgraded. Fashioning a bronze rim with a brighter, crimson cover, the book houses a rough white paper containing the destructive fire spells that Nina wields.

The new and improved Mage Book showcases improved versions of the spells Nina had used previously. Not only do the spells deal proper damage now, but she also acquired an additional spell, that not only protects her but also heals her. This spells will be vital in battle where she does not have the support of other people around her, or during ambushes when the enemy catches her off guard.
Nina looks at me while flaunting her newly upgraded item, grinning from ear to ear as she proudly struts around me. Shaking my head from side to side, as both Rebecca and I giggle at Nina's behavior. Sometimes she still acts like the child she still is, making us forget her real age. Placing her hand on my shoulder, she nudges her head to the 3 random gift boxes in my hand.
"So, are you going to open them or what? Time is ticking is it not?" - Nina
"Right, babe. I'm curious to see what you will get." - Rebecca
"Same here babe, and I'll do it right now Nina. I also received 2 additional items from the system for placing high in the leaderboard. I'll have a look at the both of them as well, after opening the boxes." - Ian
Instead of waiting for each box to open individually, I opened all 3 of them at once, producing 3 separate lights, silver, gold and purplish-gold. As the light fades a way I look inside to see what items I received from the gift box. From the silver box, I received a thin silver ring with a light-blue gem. From the gold box, I received a cursive M-shaped bow, and finally from the purple-gold box I received a small white badge with a crane origami engraved in the middle.
[Shining Blue Ring
+2 Intelligence
A small ring crafted to fit a nice shining light blue gem. A simple delicate design for the common folk.
Made by Unknown Jeweler]
[Simple Composite Bow
Required 30 Strength
Attack: 30
+5 Agility
+5 Dexterity
A simple finely crafted composite bow. It seems to be made by fusing many thin wooden strips, held together by a strong adhesive. The bow string is held taut, and is quite difficult to pull back, however an arrow shot from this bow will achieve greater air time, flying much further than shot from a primitive bow.
Made by Unknown Blacksmith]
[Badge of the Chinese
Use in an open space to create a Paper Maker. Make sure there are no obstructing objects when using the badge. Also, designate a player or NPC who will learn the ways of Chinese papermaking.]
[Palgum
An ancient building placed on top of a moving body of water to separate it into smaller canals to feed plants that are placed on top and on the sides of the building. It is a unique building belonging to the Babylonians. Plants and crops that are being watered using the Palgum will grow at an increased rate of 100%.]
[Altar of Life
An altar gifted by the gods and goddess up above to the potential 'Civilizations'. This altar will be used as a spawning location for new players in the upcoming patch. Please make sure to place this down AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.]
The new items acquired from the gift boxes flabbergasted me but after reading the description for the Altar of Life, I knew there wasn't any time to lose.
"Both of you. Follow me. I'll explain along the way." - Ian
