Chapter 1514 Chapter 1514. Demon Lord Summoning Crystal
Once the demon lord was gone, the battle became easier. The demon lord had an aura that boosted the demons under its command. Without that boost, the demons were slowly beaten back.
John and the Themisphere army had also routed the demon horde outside. They entered the capital to give the people in the palace a hand, but before they even reached halfway, the remaining demons were recalled back to the underworld.
Because they had slain the boss, they were considered as successfully beaten the disaster item. A notification was heard congratulating all the players who had participated, telling them that they got bonus exp points.
As for Jack, he heard another notification, congratulating him for successfully aiding a friendly country in repelling the disaster item. He was granted some more exp points and 500,000 merit points.
The previous three kingdom affairs had also been completed, with one perfect and two good results, netting him 230,000 merit points and 5 ruling powers.
Before these merit points rewards, his sovereign level was already very close to level 13. These combined merit points pushed his sovereign level directly to level 14, earning him 20 ruling powers. At sovereign level 14, he could recruit his tenth royal agent. He would wait until he performed the next Call to Arms to see what recruit he received first before sending an invitation.
To get to sovereign level 15, the required merit points increased again. It now needed 700,000 merit points.
Four new affairs popped up. He sent the details to the investigative teams and let them do the work.
The slain demon lord provided a large sum of exp, but the exp points were shared with allied players in the vicinity. But since Jack also received exp points from the demons slain by those allied players, it sort of evened out.
The highest amount of exp points Jack received was during the battle on the first day they arrived here. Jack was fighting with his army then. After that, he mostly went lone wolf.
As a result, even though he received many exp points in this war, it wasn\'t as many as he hoped for. Even so, it was still much more than the average players. He leveled up a total of six times. All his classes leveled up twice. His Brave Swordsmaster and Time Sage were now level 79, while his Beast Monarch was level 78.
Therras didn\'t receive the bonus exp from enemies killed by Jack\'s soldiers. The enemies it killed only gave enough exp points to level up Therras twice to level 78.
For the other players who didn\'t die, they leveled up an average of three times from this war. Most of these top players were now around level 73 to 75.
When the demon lord fell, it dropped some loot. Jack had used his Runestone of Luck then. He left most of the loot except for some which Jack\'s God-eye monocle marked with silver color. He snatched those loots without checking them and went back to fighting.
Now that the battle was over, he was looking at these loots in his inventory.
The battlefield was also full of other loot. He left those to the players here. The loot would be gathered and divided equally among the guilds. He didn\'t see any silver or purple color loot in the pile anyway. He looked around, no one seemed to come to him asking about the loot he had taken. Maybe because no one had been paying attention or they didn\'t dare to come to ask.
Three items of unique grade were the ones he had picked up.
*
Demon Lord Summoning Crystal (Unique consumable, for guild purposes only)
Summon a level 86 mythical Demon Lord in a guild war.
Duration: 3 hours
*
Soul Seed (Unique consumable)
Evolve a skill
*
Upgrade Cell: Equipment (Unique Consumable)
Upgrade a piece of equipment to the next grade
*
"Oh? Another Upgrade Cell. Talk about lucky," Jack remarked. "But this one has a different description. I suppose this one will only work on equipment?"
"Yeah. Let me tell you first that it won\'t work on legacy equipment, so you won\'t be able to use it on your regal outfit," Peniel informed.
"That\'s okay, I\'ve another equipment in mind," Jack said.
"Do you want to use it on a longsword and feed it to Storm Breaker?" Peniel asked. Jack did have a unique-grade longsword in his inventory. If he did as Peniel said, he would be able to upgrade his Storm Breaker into legendary grade.
"Let\'s deal with it later," Jack said. Thelgrun had invited Jeanny and him to the palace. They wanted John to join as well so they were waiting for John before going into the palace. The others were cleaning up the mess in the meantime.
Jack was about to give the Demon Lord Summoning Crystal to Jeanny, but he noticed the girl was side by side with David. The guy had one arm around her. Jack pointed at the two while gaping at Paytowin, who shrugged in response.
David finally moved away. Jack came to Jeanny with a playful grin.
"What are you grinning about?" Jeanny asked, confused.
Jack decided to not tease her. He gave her the Demon Lord Summoning Crystal. She could copy it and use it when they got into a guild conflict or to supplement their guild army during country wars. He also lent the Soul Seed and Upgrade Cell for Jeanny to check how many mana cores were needed to copy. Peniel said this upgrade cell that could only upgrade equipment should require fewer mana cores than the previous version.
But when she used her divine skill to scan the Soul Seed and the Upgrade Cell, she was still surprised.
"The Soul Seed needs 50,000 mana cores and this Upgrade Cell needs 80,000 mana cores," Jeanny said. "This is crazy, other evolve seeds only required around 500 to 3,000 mana cores. Why does this one require so many?"
"Soul and Chaos are the two most powerful elements. Evolve seeds that grant skills with those elements are also much rarer and exceptional. Maybe that\'s why it consumes much more mana cores than other seeds," Peniel gave her opinion.
"Do you want to keep these items to copy them later after you have enough mana cores?" Jack asked.
After giving the matter a brief thought, Jeanny gave the Soul Seed and Upgrade Cell back to Jack. "I will have to stop copying items for other members for a very long time. I think I should focus on copying cheaper things that could strengthen as many core members as possible. You should use these items rather than have them gather dust for I don\'t know how long."
Jack didn\'t object. He was glad instead. This meant he could use these items immediately.
