Chapter 47 - 47 Conspiracy
Chapter 47: Chapter 47 Conspiracy
In his previous life, he had only heard that this was a secret treasure that increased Luck Value. He had seen a picture of it on player forums, but the owner had never posted its specific effects, only a simple description.
Unexpectedly, the Luck Value actually increased by a full 3 points, which made Lis\'s Luck Value look much more impressive.
In his past life, the best effect Lis knew of for increasing luck was the Talent "World Tree\'s Favor," which only increased it by two points.
Could it be said that it was indeed the only item related to the God of Destiny mentioned in the game before?
As for the lucky effect, there was related information in the past.
Lis knew that the simplest application was in combat, where it could make every strike he launched fortuitously hit a weak spot, dealing critical hits every time.
According to player Luck Values, the critical hit rate for each attack fluctuates between ten to twenty percent.
The effect of the Lucky One was equivalent to granting Lis a one hundred percent chance to trigger critical hits for five seconds!
Beyond that, in these five seconds, many incredible feats could be achieved.
For instance, with just a piece of wire, one could open a treasure chest secured with a high-level magical lock.
For example, even without knowledge of the subject, just throwing magic potion materials together and mixing them could produce excellent potions.
However, this effect should also be limited. First, there are limits to what good luck can accomplish.
An ordinary person with incredible luck could defeat a low-level professional (for example, a Red Dragon suddenly comes flying in and kills the opponent with a breath of dragon fire), but they could definitely not defeat a deity.
Second, according to the description, every time you use the Lucky One effect, there will be a three-day unlucky fellow state afterward.
This was not mentioned by the owner in the past life.
Lis seriously suspected that the more lucky he was in the Lucky One state, the more unlucky he\'d be in the unlucky fellow state.
Is this what destiny amounts to?
Fortune is but the shadow of misfortune; misfortune is the foundation on which fortune rests.
But no matter what, this secret treasure was extremely powerful, and now it was his.
Wearing the Clover Brooch on his chest, it even looked pretty good.
He casually invested all the newly gained experience points into raising his personal level.
Lis shuddered as the exhilarating sensation of leveling up five times in a row involuntarily made him tremble.
"Comfortable!"

After basking in his rewards for a while, Lis immersed himself in today\'s arcane research.
A month had passed, and as the Sacrificial Festival drew nearer, the sense of urgency in Lis\'s heart grew heavier, leaving him with not much time.
---------------
Just as Lis obtained the secret treasure brooch, in a hidden base in Bright City,
Located underground, this secret chamber was lit by the flickering of dim candlelight. A person clad in a black cloak stood quietly in the center, as if waiting for someone.
After a short while, another figure wrapped tightly in clothing entered, standing before the person in black.
"How\'s the task I gave you coming along?"
"It hasn\'t been completed yet."
The newcomer removed their hood and turned out to be Camus, who had previously clashed with Lis at the Royal Magic Academy.
"Such a simple task and you haven\'t completed it? I didn\'t even ask you to kill that Viscount, just to test his bottom line."
The person in black was very dissatisfied. If it were not for the fact that Camus and Lis were classmates, the task would never have been assigned to him. After all, it was related to the most crucial step in the adult\'s plan.
"Just give me a little more time! Lis barely ever leaves his house; I can\'t find an opportunity. Last time when I cornered him in the academy, nothing I did could provoke him, leading directly to his Golden Warrior Guard taking action."
Camus felt unfairly treated, unable to comprehend why a mighty Golden Warrior would serve as a bodyguard to a declining Viscount. Was there something so attractive about that Lis?
"I don\'t care, if it delays the adult\'s plan, you know what the consequences are."
The person in black replied, the bland words thick with threat.
Camus\'s face changed color as he said through gritted teeth,
"As long as you have someone tie up that guard, I\'ll handle Lis myself and definitely figure out what he\'s hiding."
The person in black looked at Camus as if looking at an idiot:
"What are you thinking? The reason you were sent to probe was exact to avoid alarming anyone. Even if this mission fails, we would not consider deploying a Golden Rank professional."
The person in black didn\'t bother with further discussion, simply saying in the end,
"The Sacrificial Festival is in two months, I\'ll give you half a month more. If you still can\'t accomplish it, the person coming to see you next time won\'t be me."
After saying that, the person in black walked straight out of the room, slamming the door shut with a bang.
Only Camus was left in the chamber, his face so dark with rage it might drip water, his fists clenched so tight his nails nearly drew blood.
He had thought it was going to be a simple task, yet here he was in this predicament.
Lis!
It\'s all your fault!
Then don\'t blame me!
Determined, with a somewhat crazed look on his face, Camus too left the chamber.
