Chapter 534 Hatching the Nether Lightning Eagle! (Seeking Recommendations! Seeking Monthly Tickets!)
Seeing Nie Yan take out the Darkwing Dragon egg, Beast Trainer Collinston revealed a shocked expression, exclaiming, "Good heavens, I can't believe it, this is a Darkwing Dragon egg! Respected Mr. Nie Yan, would you allow me to take a look?"
Unexpectedly, Beast Trainer Collinston would be so surprised. Nie Yan handed the Darkwing Dragon egg to him.
Collinston carefully took the Darkwing Dragon egg, his expression exceptionally devout. As a beast trainer, he naturally understood how precious this Darkwing Dragon egg was. The Hilton Fortress High-Ranking Overseer, Brexpeare, risked his life to obtain this pet egg deep underground. In his entire life, Collinston had only seen one such egg!
Collinston carefully stroked the patterns on the Darkwing Dragon egg, examining it with rapt attention, occasionally revealing an excited expression, and sometimes a hint of regret.
After a while, Beast Trainer Collinston looked at Nie Yan and said, "Respected Mr. Nie Yan, I cannot hatch this Darkwing Dragon egg. It was too young when it left its mother, so it appears transparent."
Nie Yan's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that this Darkwing Dragon could not be hatched? But on second thought, that couldn't be right. Since High-Ranking Overseer Brexpeare would give this Darkwing Dragon egg as a quest reward, it should be hatchable, perhaps requiring certain conditions.
Just as he thought of this, he heard Beast Trainer Collinston continue, "I cannot hatch it, but this Darkwing Dragon is still alive, so if you can find certain items, perhaps you can give it enough power to break out of its shell and hatch."
"What items do you need?" Nie Yan asked, as expected.
"At least twenty Magic Crystals, thirty Light Crystals, two Life Crystals, and one Power Crystal," Beast Trainer Collinston said.
Hearing this, Nie Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Requiring twenty Magic Crystals, thirty Light Crystals, two Life Crystals, and one Power Crystal to hatch the Darkwing Dragon was indeed as difficult as ascending to the heavens for ordinary players. Magic Crystals and Light Crystals were easier to come by, but Life Crystals and Power Crystals were more difficult to find because these two items were very rare, and ordinary players had no idea where to look. But for Nie Yan, it wasn't very difficult, because he knew where to find these things. He could start collecting them now, and it would only take him ten days at most to gather them all.
This was a powerful flying mount. If he could hatch it, it would be a great help to Nie Yan.
Beast Trainer Collinston returned the Darkwing Dragon egg to Nie Yan, and Nie Yan put it away.
"Mr. Collinston, please appraise this pet for me," Nie Yan said, paying 2,000 gold coins as he handed the other black giant egg to Collinston.
Collinston held the black giant egg in his hands, examining it carefully for a while, stroking the shell with his hands, closing his eyes to sense something, as a warm white light lit up in his hands.
Nie Yan watched Beast Trainer Collinston, as if he were performing some kind of mysterious ritual. Nie Yan felt a little nervous. Beast Trainer Collinston's appraisal result was very important. If it was an ordinary pet, then it might only be worth a few thousand gold coins, or tens of thousands of gold coins. If it was appraised as a flying mount, then it would be a priceless treasure. Flying mounts were too rare, and of great significance to the entire Nirvana Guild.
After a while, Collinston opened his eyes and said to Nie Yan, "This is a flying mount, a Netherclaw Thunderhawk of the dark attribute."
Hearing his words, Nie Yan's hanging heart finally settled. It was a flying mount. Nie Yan was not sure what level of flying mount the Netherclaw Thunderhawk was, but even the lowest level flying mount was extremely precious.
"Respected Mr. Nie Yan, have you decided to hatch this Netherclaw Thunderhawk? Each player is only allowed to have one flying mount. If you hatch this Netherclaw Thunderhawk, you will not be able to give it to anyone else, and you will not be able to own another flying mount until this Netherclaw Thunderhawk dies," Beast Trainer Collinston said.
Only then did Nie Yan remember that there was indeed such a setting. Flying mounts were soulbound after they were hatched, and they only had one master.
Nie Yan weighed the pros and cons. He decided to give this Netherclaw Thunderhawk to someone close to him. He would be able to hatch the Darkwing Dragon in a few days. These things should naturally be in the hands of the most reliable people. Nie Yan first thought of Xie Yao and Tang Yao. These two people were undoubtedly the closest to him. After thinking about it again, this Netherclaw Thunderhawk was of the dark attribute, and Xie Yao was a Holy Word Priest. If the attributes conflicted, it would greatly reduce the attributes of the pet and the master. But Tang Yao was different. Tang Yao was an Arcane Mage, and many of the Arcane Mage's spells had dark attributes. If Tang Yao held the Netherclaw Thunderhawk, his and the pet's attributes would be increased to a certain extent.
For Nie Yan, it didn't matter who held the Netherclaw Thunderhawk, as long as it could be used to its greatest effect.
People who hold flying mounts must participate in every guild war in the future and cannot be absent, which is equivalent to being tied to the Nirvana Guild.
For the Nirvana Guild, the Netherclaw Thunderhawk was definitely a scarce strategic resource and must not be wasted.
Nie Yan contacted Tang Yao and asked, "Yaozi, where are you now?"
"I'm grinding monsters in Phantom City," Tang Yao replied in voice chat.
"Phantom City?" Nie Yan was taken aback. He remembered that it seemed to be a level 90 map, and asked, "Are you leveling up with a team?"
"I'm alone right now."
"Not bad, you can even solo in a level 90 map." Nie Yan said with a smile. Wanting to grind monsters and level up in such a high-level map wasn't just about having good equipment, but also about having superb skills. With Tang Yao's cloth armor defense, he would be done for if the monsters there touched him even once. Mages were ranged classes, so as long as they had enough fancy footwork, they could grind monsters beyond their level. And Tang Yao also had a powerful Tier 3 Arcane Sprite. It was said that the Arcane Sprite was close to Tier 4.
Hearing Nie Yan's words, Tang Yao was slightly proud, and said, "I got a lot of good things, and I put them all in the guild warehouse."
"Go to the pet store next to the central square in Calore City, I have something good for you."
"Pet store?" Tang Yao was stunned for a moment, and said, "I already have a pet, a level 75 Ghost Wolf. This pet is quite useful. Give the pet to someone else."
Nie Yan smiled and said, "It's not a pet, it's a flying mount!"
Hearing Nie Yan's words, Tang Yao was slightly stunned, and then said excitedly, "You got a second flying mount?" He remembered that Nie Yan had previously obtained a Darkwing Dragon pet egg, and he was planning to keep it for himself. He would only give it to him if he got a second flying mount.
"Not yet, I have two pet eggs here, one of them is a Netherclaw Thunderhawk, I'll give it to you, I want to find a way to hatch the Darkwing Dragon." Nie Yan said. Although the Netherclaw Thunderhawk was strong, it was not on the same level as the Darkwing Dragon at all.
"I'll go back immediately!" Tang Yao said excitedly. Hearing that Nie Yan was going to give him a flying mount, how could he dawdle? He quickly packed his things, found a corner, and read the return scroll.
A player can simultaneously own a pet, a mount, and a flying mount. These do not conflict, with the flying mount being the rarest and most powerful.
After a while, Tang Yao ran in from the entrance of the pet store.
"Where's the flying mount? Let me see it!" Tang Yao said excitedly as he ran.
Seeing Tang Yao's excited look, Nie Yan smiled slightly and handed the Netherclaw Thunderhawk's pet egg into Tang Yao's hands, saying, "Give it to Beast Trainer Collinston to hatch, and it'll be yours."
"Where did you get this flying mount? I've done so many quests, but I haven't even found a hair on a flying mount." Tang Yao said dejectedly. He deeply realized how difficult it was to find a flying mount.
"I opened a sub-legendary treasure chest in the City of Gold." Nie Yan said with a smile.
"How's your Darkwing Dragon? Can it be hatched?" Tang Yao asked. Nie Yan's Darkwing Dragon was still just an egg.
"Twenty Magic Crystals, thirty Light Crystals, two Life Crystals, and one Power Crystal are needed to hatch it."
"Power Crystal?" Tang Yao frowned, and said, "I seem to have seen this thing somewhere. Shout out in the guild group chat and see if anyone can find it."
Nie Yan was a little surprised to hear Tang Yao say that he had seen these things before. Power Crystals seemed to only drop in maps above level 90, and only some rare maps had a drop rate of a few hundred thousandths. He remembered that there was a treasure chest in a level 100 map that dropped this thing, so he wanted to get it himself. However, with a try-and-see mentality, Nie Yan sent a message in the guild group chat, looking for Magic Crystals, Light Crystals, Life Crystals, and Power Crystals.
In addition, he suddenly thought that the Assassin Alliance could also be used, and he also released a task in the Assassin Alliance to search for these things, with generous rewards. Anyway, these things would be useful in the future, so the more he collected, the better.
"Boss, that Power Crystal thing, Boss Daoguang and the others got one when they went to a dungeon, and it's in the guild warehouse now," a player reminded.
It's in the guild warehouse?
Nie Yan was stunned for a moment. He had to go to the warehouse to take a look.
"There are also a few Magic Crystals and Light Crystals!"
With these things in the guild warehouse, things were much easier for Nie Yan.
"Respected Mr. Collinston, please help me hatch this Netherclaw Thunderhawk." Tang Yao had a few words with Beast Trainer Collinston, paid 20,000 gold coins, and the black giant egg in his hand instantly emitted a dazzling black light. The Netherclaw Thunderhawk was about to hatch!
