1638 A Peculiar Lightning Calamity! (2)
“Quick! Activate the second defense array!” shouted the person overseeing the Secondary Career Alliance. He was in a frenzy.

The first four lightning bolts had almost destroyed the active array and the fifth one seemed to be more frightening. The first array would definitely fail to withstand it.

Furthermore, he had reason to believe that the fifth tribulation strike would still miss the pillar of light.

Damn it, what the hell is going on!

Boom!

A moment later, the fifth bolt of lightning completed its formation. Paired with a thunderous roar that shook the earth, it descended like a lightning dragon, charging straight towards the pillar.

It headed straight for it!

Everyone had their eyes peeled as they saw the bolt descend.

Its path was true. Nothing should go wrong, right?

Right?

Even Wang Teng was staring at the sky. The tribulation was a bit off for some reason; he couldn’t predict the outcome.

Amid all the gazes, the bolt of lightning narrowly missed the pillar of purple light, then headed straight for the Secondary Career Alliance’s protective array.

Crack!

A crisp sound was heard and the array’s first layer was breached.

Fortunately, the second layer had been activated and was much stronger. The tribulation strike exhausted much of its energy when it dealt with the array’s first layer, weakening considerably.

Boom!

Even so, the second protective layer still shook violently.

The face of the alliance’s overseer turned black. His gaze was fixated on the array, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

Some time later, the bolt of lightning dissipated. The second layer managed to withstand the attack.

The dark clouds in the sky scattered slowly and the terrifying tribulation disappeared without a trace.

The overseer let out a long sigh. He almost collapsed due to fear.

What a close call!

He almost asked his subordinates to activate the third layer of the protective array.

The alliance’s facilities were actually pretty safe. Many grandmasters would often be making pills, making calamities a normal occurrence. The multi-layered array was set for that very reason.

The place would have suffered greatly otherwise.

“Go and find the person who forged the item. This is truly bizarre,” said the overseer as he wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.

The middle-aged man who greeted the hero rushed over and offered, “Sir Achille, I think it was Grandmaster Wang!

“Grandmaster Wang? The three-field expert whom the empire asked us to take care of?” The man was surprised.

“Yes, that’s him!” replied the other.

“Bowen, go and ask what happened… Nevermind, I’ll go there myself,” said the administrator as he made his way to the smithing room the hero was using.

Being in charge of the alliance chapter covering planet Yuming, he had numerous matters to take care of every day; that was the main reason why he didn’t greet the young earl in person. However, the recent phenomenon was so peculiar he had to go there and find out.

Concurrently, those who witnessed the tribulation were engaged in heated discussions. The crowd had yet to disperse, even after a long time passed.

There was no doubt that the calamity would soon become one of the planet’s hot topics.

Such news could even go farther, outside the planet.

It was understandable; such strange calamity wasn’t a common sight.

Back in the smithing room—Wang Teng grabbed the successfully forged Luck Tear and gave Lin Chuhan a meaningful glance. Then, they both stared at the jewel, keeping an eerie silence.

The lightning calamity had seemed rather dull.

It felt all too easy; there was no sense of accomplishment!

“Wang Teng, what just happened?” the young woman asked after some hesitation.

“It’s one of the Luck Tear’s effects… maybe?” he replied, unsure.

He didn’t expect such a strange event to be triggered by the item.

“Round Ball, do you know what happened?” Wang Teng asked in his mind.

“How should I know? No one has ever forged the Luck Tear. You’re the first one I’ve seen doing it,” the little fellow replied with a helpless tone.

“Erm, so… I don’t have to worry about news of the jewel’s creation leaking out?” he asked.

“I doubt anyone would associate it with the Luck Tear,” Round Ball said, “after all, the stone is quite rare, and no one has ever seen such a result before.”

“That’s good!” Wang Teng heaved a sigh of relief. He then sighed and added, “But the effect is too strong. It was even capable of evading the lightning calamity.”

The little one speculated, “I think it’s because of being newly made. Maybe the effect will only come into play during critical moments.”

“Oh right, will resisting the calamities use up too much luck power?” The young man quickly probed for any changes in the fortune power contained in the stone.

Right. It would be troublesome if too much power is consumed.

“I don’t think so. The consumption should be low since no one was in real danger,” Round Ball replied.

“Well, it’s good that the luck power seems to be almost the same,” the hero said, feeling relieved.

“Wait, you can sense luck power?” The little helper was astounded.

“What? Isn’t that normal?” The hero was visibly confused.

Round Ball: …

Normal your head!

“Luck power is elusive and ethereal. How could ordinary people sense it?” remarked the small fellow.

Wang Teng was stunned. He quickly tried to cover it up. “Oh right! Haha… well, maybe because I’m really lucky. Don’t you think my luck is decent?”

“Well, it does make sense.” Round Ball touched its chin. “But, this is still ridiculous. There’s something strange about you.”

The young earl quickly interrupted the little one’s train of thought, “Come on, what’s strange about me? I have one head, two arms, and three legs.”

Round Ball: …

What do you mean by three legs! it complained inwardly, successfully distracted.

Of course, since Wang Teng didn’t want to say anything, it wouldn’t press the matter. There were too many inexplicable things about the hero, questioning everything would drive the little one crazy.

The young man smiled and looked at the sky, while collecting the attribute bubbles floating about.

Constellation Force (Lightning)*1500

Heaven-Earth Calamity Lightning*100

Luck*1

Luck*1

…

Indeed, there are luck attributes! Wang Teng thought with a glimmer in his eyes.

Back when he checked the newly forged jewel, he noticed that there wasn’t much difference from before. However, there was still some consumption involved.

He had a sudden thought—
If the Luck Tear can drop luck attributes, can I replenish it?

To others, luck power was a fleeting and intangible matter, invisible to the naked eye. However, the young hero was capable of quantifying the attribute.

This could open an opportunity for him.

He wanted to try it out as soon as the idea popped up.

He held the Luck Tear and silently moved his luck attributes.

The next moment, he felt an invisible force flowing into the gem through his hands.

Meanwhile, he felt a slight emptiness in his heart, as if having lost something.

The hero was quick to check the attributes board.

Luck: 39 (Limit of a normal person: 10)

He had picked up two luck points when he first came into contact with the fortune stone. Furthermore, he had just acquired two additional points. Adding to the existing thirty-six points, it was a total of forty.

However, the sum went down to thirty-nine after the wisp of luck entered the Luck Tear. He lost one point.

It’s possible! Wang Teng was elated.

Luck Tears were considered as consumables in the hands of others. In his case, however, it had turned into a valuable and sustainable treasure.

This is amazing!

He could keep using the Luck Tear in the future.

However, the one frustrating aspect was the Luck attribute scarcity. The hero would rarely come across opportunities to acquire them.

Once his luck attributes were transferred to the stone, his own luck would decrease permanently; it wouldn’t be automatically replenished.

Therefore, he had to make sure his luck attribute was sufficient before transferring more to the jewel; otherwise, all of it would be useless.
