I Maximize My Item-dropping Rate Chapter 3: Piebald Worm King

Chapter 3: Piebald Worm King

When Xiao s.h.i.+ arrived at the forest where the Five-Colored Spirit Tail Sparrows were raised, it was already noon.

The scorching sun hung high in the sky.

Sunlight shone through the leaves.

Amidst the scattered and swaying light spots, Xiao s.h.i.+ raised his head and looked at the Five-Colored Spirit Tail Sparrows flying across the sky.

The body of the Five-Colored Spirit Tail Sparrow was much larger than that of ordinary sparrows. When it reached adulthood, the Five-Colored Spirit Tail Sparrow could often grow to the size of a hen.

Its feathers were hard and its habits were fierce. It was almost equivalent to a Martial Entry-Level Two.

However, the reason why the Five-Colored Spirit Tail Sparrow was an important resource for the Red Tiger Sect was not because of its strength.

The Five-Colored Spirit Tail Sparrow could be said to be a treasure. Its blood and feathers were important materials for forging weapons. In particular, the tail was the key to causing a qualitative change in an artifact.

Secondly, the meat of the Five-Colored Spirit Tail Sparrow was delicious. After eating it, it could greatly improve one's body.

Someone had once calculated. The improvement brought about by eating a Five-Colored Spirit Tail Sparrow was equivalent to 300 Heavenly Cycles! It was equivalent to fifteen days of cultivation for an ordinary person.

Most importantly, if one ate the Five-Colored Spirit Tail Sparrow many times, there was a chance that his body would produce powerful beast power!

All sorts of benefits made the Five-Colored Spirit Tail Sparrow an important resource for the Red Tiger Sect.

Although the disciples in the sect could use their contribution points to exchange for the Five-Colored Spirit Tail Sparrow, the price of a Five-Colored Spirit Tail Sparrow was as high as eight thousand contribution points!

Few people could afford such a high price.

There was no need to mention Xiao s.h.i.+. So far, his contribution points were less than 100. He shook his head.

Xiao s.h.i.+'s gaze s.h.i.+fted from the Five-Colored Spirit Tail Sparrow in the sky to the ground. Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, he began to dig up the earthworms and ants in the soil.

After working for a while, he did not gain much.

There were only three earthworms, but not the ants.

Xiao s.h.i.+ frowned. He realized that this world was very different from the blue planet in his previous life.

Ants were very common in his previous life. But here, he could not find it at all. Although he did not see any ants and there were very few earthworms, Xiao s.h.i.+ caught two piebald worms.

The Piebald Worm was similar in size to a beetle. It had bright spots on its back and two long tentacles on its head.

In this forest, there were many Piebald Worms. They could be seen almost everywhere.

Xiao s.h.i.+ gradually realized that capturing piebald worms might be more suitable than digging earthworms under the soil. Hence, he gave up on the earthworm. He searched for the Piebald Worm with all his might.

Be it on the ground, on the trees, or on the flowers and plants, these piebald insects could be seen.

Xiao s.h.i.+ threw the piebald bug and the three earthworms into the sack. He was not in a hurry to kill it. He planned to deal with it together when he returned.

He did this until evening.

Xiao s.h.i.+ took the cloth bag filled with Piebald Worms and returned to his room. His harvest was quite bountiful. He estimated that he had caught at least seventy to eighty Piebald Worms in the afternoon.

This was far more effective than digging earthworms.

In excitement and antic.i.p.ation, Xiao s.h.i.+ carefully reached into the cloth bag and grabbed a struggling Piebald Worm. After taking it out, he placed it on the ground and hammered it like a walnut.

Smack!

Under the power of Xiao s.h.i.+'s Level Four Martial Entry-Level, the entire body of the Piebald Worm was directly hammered flat. Purplish-red blood flowed out from all parts of its body. In the next moment, its corpse was shattered and exploded.

A porcelain bowl fell out.

[Name: Porcelain Bowl]

[Type: Bowl]

[Grade: Mortal]

[Introduction: Daily food utensils]

[Remark: It's a little fragile, so don't use too much strength.]

"Next."

Xiao s.h.i.+ threw the porcelain bowl aside and took out a second Piebald Worm from the cloth bag.

He punched down.

Smack!

This time, a pale gold coin dropped.

[Name: Martial Coin]

[Type: Property]

[Grade: Mortal]

[Introduction: Currency used in the current world]

[Remark: Enjoy the joy of money]

"Keep going!"

Xiao s.h.i.+ took out another Piebald Worm and punched it to death. A pink undergarment fell out in front of him.

[Name: Undergarment]

[Type: Clothes]

[Grade: Mortal]

[Introduction: A woman's underwear]

[Remark: If you have a special hobby, you can wear it too.]

Xiao s.h.i.+: "…"

"Again!"

Smack!

This time, it was a pot of wine.

[Name: Delicious Fruit Wine]

[Type: Wine]

[Grade: Mortal]

[Introduction: A fine wine brewed from unknown fruits. It tastes superb.]

[Remark: Believe me, even if you don't like to drink, you will still fall in love with it.]

Xiao s.h.i.+ took the opportunity to pick up the wine pot and take a sip.

His taste buds stirred the sweetness of the fruit. A gentle fruit sourness and faint bitterness rose from the base of his tongue like a breeze, moistening his nose like the fragrance of a newly bloomed violet flower.

"Good wine!"

Xiao s.h.i.+'s eyes lit up. In his previous life, he had drunk a lot of wine, but this was the first time he had drunk such delicious fruit wine. It was just as the note had said. Even if he was not a good drinker, he was still attracted by the taste of this fruit wine.

Coupled with the meat bun that dropped last time, he came to a conclusion.

"The food and wine dropped by killing them will taste quite good!"

Xiao s.h.i.+ thought as he took another sip. Then, he took out the Piebald Worm from the cloth bag and punched it to death.

Chopsticks, bronze mirror, drumstick, blanket, wooden basin, flute…

More and more things piled up in front of Xiao s.h.i.+. However, the elixir that he had been longing for did not appear.

His frown deepened. At this moment, he had already killed more than 50 Piebald Worms in a row. The items that dropped were all daily items. Not a single pill fell.

Just as he was about to continue killing, the fingers that reached into the cloth bag suddenly felt as if they were clamped by an iron clamp, and there was a burst of pain.

"Huh?"

Xiao s.h.i.+ looked down. A large Piebald Worm that was about twice the size of an ordinary Piebald Worm was biting his finger tightly.

"This it it!" Xiao s.h.i.+'s eyes flashed. He was not surprised.

When he caught this Piebald Worm, he realized that its body was much larger than ordinary Piebald Worms. Ordinary Piebald Worms did not have much combat strength. However, this Piebald Worm possessed strength comparable to a Martial Entry-Level One.

It should be a bug king.

Xiao s.h.i.+ grabbed the Piebald Worm King and threw it to the ground.

Smack!

Even the insect king could not withstand a punch from Xiao s.h.i.+ and was hammered to death on the spot. However, its corpse did not explode like the Piebald Worm. While it was well preserved, a brown-covered book fell out.

[Name: Arc Flash (Earth Rank)]

[Type: Body Movement Secret Manual]

[Grade: Martial Entry-Level]

[Introduction: The Sect of Origin's signature movement technique. Not only does it have speed, but it also has astonis.h.i.+ng lethality.]

[Remark: Face the gale.]

"A movement technique manual!! And it's an Earth-rank movement technique manual!" Xiao s.h.i.+'s eyes suddenly lit up.

Secret manuals were usually divided into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow.

In the Red Tiger Sect, although there were many secret manuals such as saber techniques, sword techniques, and movement techniques, they required a certain amount of contribution points to learn.

The higher the level of the manual, the more contribution points were needed.

Because he had never gone out to do missions, Xiao s.h.i.+ did not have many contribution points on hand. He could not even take out enough contribution points to learn the lowest-level Yellow-rank manual.

To him, the value of this movement technique Arc Flash was definitely not inferior to the Peerless Potential Pill from before!

"After killing so many Piebald Worms previously, they only dropped mortal-level items, but this Piebald Worm King dropped a martial-level movement technique manual."

Xiao s.h.i.+'s eyes flickered.

"If I'm not wrong, this should be related to strength. Although ordinary Piebald Worms can also drop Martial-Level items, the probability is very low. I might have to kill hundreds or even thousands of them before they drop.

"And killing the stronger Piebald Worm King dropped a Martial Entry-Level secret manual. Therefore, the conclusion is that the stronger the creature I kill, the higher the grade of the item I drop!

"Their strength corresponds to different levels. Organisms like piebald worms, mosquitoes, and earthworms only correspond with ordinary people, so basically, they drop ordinary items.

"And the Piebald Worm King already possesses strength comparable to a martial artist, corresponding to the level of a martial artist. Therefore, it will drop a Martial Entry-Level secret manual!

"If that's the case, I have to find creatures at the corresponding martial artist level to kill. Only then can I drop Martial Entry-Level items more effectively!"
