Awakening The Weakest Talent: Only I Level Up



Chapter 810 Gathering Materials

After Lu Yu and Han Xuefei tidied up their room, they got ready to rest for the day.

They had infiltrated the enemy's ranks. The risk was high, but the possibility of great rewards was there.

Lu Yu's target this time was the Death Spirit Dragon. He wanted to kill it or, at the very least, severely injure it.

At the minimum, he needed to obtain its dragon scales.

Just as Lu Yu was about to fall asleep, there was a knock on the door.

"I'm Evan. I have something to talk to you about."

"Come in," Lu Yu replied.

Evan pushed open the door and walked in. He pulled a chair over and sat down.

"Right, as adventurers, you must have brought a lot of treasure with you. We urgently need many things now, so I want to make a deal with you."

"A deal?"

"Yes, we have a lot of antiques stored in the cellar. Of course, they were considered treasures thousands of years ago, but they might not be the same now. If it's possible, we can try to trade some items."

Lu Yu's interest was piqued.

"That's fine. Bring me to take a look."

Evan smiled when he saw Lu Yu agree so readily.

"Alright, I'll bring you there now."

Then, the two of them walked out of the villa one after the other and came to the church's backyard.

There was an entrance to the cellar.

Evan pointed at the dark basement cellar entrance, saying, "Our antiques are kept inside here."

He walked down the stairs and headed to the basement.

Lu Yu followed closely behind.

In the basement, a few oil lamps had been lit. The light was dim, and he could barely see his surroundings.

The cellar wasn't small. It was about the size of a warehouse.

There were dozens of neatly arranged shelves with supplies on them.

"Originally, we had stored enough supplies we could use after waking up. However, it seems that there was an accident here. There was a problem with the airtight seal, and many things got wet."

"I see, but at least you still have the weapons and equipment intact or gold and silver jewelry."

Evan smiled bitterly. "But these things can't solve our urgency."

Lu Yu knew what he meant and asked, "You want to trade something useful from me?"

"That's right." Evan nodded.

"I see."

Then, Lu Yu scanned the shelves to see if there was anything he needed.

He came before a treasure box. A line of words was written on the box: "Jade Badge."

"What's the use of this thing?"

"Ah... as long as you wear this badge, you can recover your mana continuously."

"How's the recovery speed?"

"It will recover once every five seconds and restore half of what has been consumed."

Lu Yu raised his eyebrows slightly. This thing sounded quite powerful, as its mana recovery speed was incredible. If it was correctly used, it could allow one to release skills continuously.

"This thing is quite the item. Aren't you going to keep it?"

Evan smiled and said, "We probably won't be able to use it. Our long slumber has damaged our cultivation and is far from our peak."

"If you want it, you can take it."

He said it calmly, as if he did not hold the badge in high regard.

"Alright then. In exchange, I'll give you these."

Lu Yu picked up his pocket watch. As it flashed, 50 bottles of potions appeared on the shelf.

"These are all freshly brewed potions. Some are used to heal injuries, some to increase strength, some to treat diseases, and some to resuscitate someone on the verge of death."

Evan was delighted when he saw the row of potions.

"Thank you so much! This is exactly what we need!"

"You can continue to look around. We can trade more stuff if you need anything else."

Lu Yu continued walking along the shelves.

His gaze landed on another treasure box.

The box was pitch-black, and a dark green gem was embedded in the middle.

"What is this?"

Lu Yu felt that the energy contained in the treasure box was unique.

"Hmm... I can't remember for sure. After all, time has passed, and there are too many things here."

Lu Yu picked up the treasure box and opened it.

There was a black knife-like item lying inside.

However, when Lu Yu looked at it carefully, he found it familiar.

After a first glance, he recognized what was in the box.

It was a slender dragon scale.

Dragons' scales came in varying sizes. Some were wide and thick, some were thin and long, and some were shaped like sharp thorns.

Some dragons didn't even have scales.

The long, thin dragon scale in the treasure box looked like a dagger.

Lu Yu did not recognize it at first, but he soon knew it was the scale of the Death Spirit Dragon.

"Hm... It looks like a dragon scale. How did you get it?"

"I think someone from my family accidentally picked it up in the wild back then."

"What great luck you have." Lu Yu exclaimed.

"It seems that you intend to take this dragon scale?" Evan was looking forward to another trade.

"Of course. Oh, why didn't you use this dragon scale to forge a piece of equipment after obtaining it?"

"This is a good material to create strong equipment."

"We wanted to, but we didn't have the conditions, so we put it aside."

Lu Yu nodded slightly, understanding that this dragon scale was useless in their hands.

It didn't even look good as a decoration.

"I will take this. I'll trade it with these items."

Lu Yu then picked up his pocket watch again.

A light flashed, and then a large pile of food appeared in front of him.

These were all emergency foods made with modern technology. They could be stored for many years and were rich in nutrients yet delicious.

Looking at the bags that appeared out of thin air, Evan asked curiously, "What are these?"

"All of them are food. There are a total of 300 bags, enough for you to eat for a long time."

On the way here, Lu Yu saw many abandoned farmlands outside the city.

It was impossible to reclaim those farmlands in a short period of time.

Evan smiled excitedly.

"That's great! We lack food now, so these supplies will be a lifesaver."

He exclaimed enthusiastically.

A dragon scale was not helpful to them, especially when they could not refine it.

In Evan's eyes, the value of the dragon's scale was rubbish compared to the food supplies.

Lu Yu kept the dragon scale in his pocket watch.

This way, he had all four dragon scales and the Heavenly Star Rock to create the desired whetstone.

He didn't expect it to gather everything he needed this quickly.

He thought he would have to fight the Death Spirit Dragon to get the last dragon scale.

"I'll be heading back now. These two things are very helpful to us, so I'll give you more food as thanks."

Lu Yu picked up his pocket watch again. With a flash of light, more food appeared on the ground.

"Thank you so much. It will probably take a long time for us to reclaim the wasteland and farm for food."

"Without your help, I'm afraid we'll have to starve."
