Chapter 417 - Chapter 416 Finally, the wait is over! Unleash the meter reversal technique!

[Item 5: Rainbow]

[Origin: Soul Knight]

[Effect: A shotgun that can fire seven different attribute energy bullets at once. The bullets pack a decent punch and have a high probability of triggering status ailments, but there is a mandatory 0.5-second cooldown after every shot.]

[Price: 10,000 sacrifice points]

It was another classic weapon that would have been extremely useful if it had appeared in the early stages, but for the current Peter, it was completely useless.

Although it could be given to friends as a sidearm, Peter still chose not to buy it immediately. He wanted to wait and see if he could pull the dog talisman first.

[Item 6: Skill Book: Contract Summon: Tau King Kuruta]

[Origin: Dungeon & Fighter]

[Effect: Summons Tau King Kuruta to assist in attacking enemies. Summon duration: 10 minutes, cooldown: 60 minutes.]

[Price: 30,000 sacrifice points]

Uh... another classic, useless item.

If he had this skill book in the early stages, it would have been quite useful. But now... summoning this thing would really just be for a laugh, wouldn't it?

If it were Big Sister Louise's skill book, he could at least summon her for some eye candy, and maybe even unlock some other services...

But a minotaur... forget about it!

Needless to say, Peter decisively chose to pass.

After passing on Item 6, Peter's mood gradually became a bit complicated.

Only two items left. Would he be able to get the dog talisman he had been dreaming of?

After adjusting his mindset, Peter looked at the next item:

[Item 7: Skill Book: Chronoshift]

[Origin: League of Legends]

[Effect: Zilean's ultimate skill. Upon activation, places a protective time rune on himself or an ally for 5 seconds. If the target takes lethal damage, they are chronoshifted back to their state before taking damage and healed for a large amount.]

[Price: 100,000 sacrifice points]

Holy crap!

When he saw the words "Chronoshift," Peter was ready to pop the champagne.

He had thought it could really help Carter regain her youth.

But he didn't expect that this "Chronoshift" was actually the ultimate skill of the Chronokeeper in LoL.

Although the resurrection effect of this skill was also heaven-defying under normal circumstances, making it a "must-buy for any Earthling" skill.

But for the current Peter, what he wanted was really not this kind of time reversal!

Sigh, same old rule. He would see what the last item was before deciding whether to buy it.

Although he didn't hold much hope in his heart, Peter still looked at the last item refreshed this month.

[Item 8: Twelve Talismans Selection]

[Origin: jackie chan adventures]

[Effect: Allows the host to choose one talisman from the twelve talismans. The host will have absolute control over the obtained talisman.]

[Price: 500,000 sacrifice points]

Talk about finding a way out when all hope seemed lost!

The moment he saw this talisman selection, Peter felt as if he had ridden a roller coaster from hell to heaven.

"Hiss~ But to be fair, this price of 500,000 is truly a bit absurd..."

You had to know that Peter had worked himself to the bone, sacrificing the Infinity Gauntlet plus three Infinity Stones along with his previous savings all at once, just to barely scrape together one million sacrifice points!

Yet this single talisman was going to cost him half of it.

How could such an exaggerated price not make Peter feel a pang of pain?

Peter even seriously suspected that this damn system was taking advantage of him. Seeing that he had so much savings, it started to rip him off mercilessly.

But no matter what, being able to get the dog talisman was the best news for Peter at this stage.

Mentally chanting "money spent will always return" like a madman, Peter ultimately chose to purchase the talisman selection with a pained expression.

Then, without any hesitation, he chose to take the dog talisman.

An octagonal stone emitting a yellow glow emerged in Peter's spiritual World, engraved with the classic pattern of a golden retriever.

[dog talisman: Grants the user infinite lifespan and eternal vitality, making the holder immortal and indestructible. Possesses the power of immortality and eternal youth.]

Looking at the three talismans—Dog, Horse, and Tiger—floating in his spiritual World, although Peter still felt a bit of a sting in his wallet, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion:

"Speaking of which, can I also say now, 'Now, I lack nothing'?"

After making this quip, he glanced at his remaining "406,400" sacrifice points.

After hesitating for a moment, Peter still bought the three items: "Ope-Ope no Mi," "Rainbow," and "Skill Book: Chronoshift."

After purchasing these three items, his originally seven-figure fortune went right back to square one overnight.

Leaving him with a pitiful 96,400 sacrifice points.

"No matter what, this money was well spent!"

Thinking this, Peter took a deep breath, then pushed open the door and walked back into the ward.

In the ward, Captain America, who was snuggling with Carter and whispering intimate words, looked up. His previously crumbling emotions had clearly improved a lot, and he couldn't help but ask expectantly:

"Peter, did you think of a good idea?"

Peter nodded at the Captain, a reassuring smile appearing on his face:

"I have a general idea, though I can't guarantee it will definitely make Ms. Carter young again. However, I think it's worth a try."

"Don't worry, Captain. Even if this experiment fails, I can guarantee there won't be any side effects."

Hearing this, Captain America nodded and said with a serious expression:

"Don't worry, Peter. I believe in your abilities!"

After receiving Captain America's affirmation, Peter hesitated no longer.

He first used the Eye of Aurora to bring Felicia back to Carter's ward, then gestured for Felicia to take off the Ten Rings she wore on her arm.

After preparing the Ten Rings, Peter exhaled a long breath, then materialized the dog talisman in his palm with a wave of his hand.

Since the dog talisman needed to be worn by someone else to take effect, Peter could only display the physical talisman in front of everyone.

The moment he placed the dog talisman in Carter's hand, a soft yellow light instantly enveloped her body.

Enveloped by this light, Carter first let out a comfortable grunt, then widened her eyes in surprise, unable to help but exclaim:

"What kind of power is this?"

She could feel her originally weak heartbeat starting to become strong and powerful, with every beat seemingly announcing the return of life to the World.

At the same time, her aged and frail body also underwent a quiet transformation.

Although her appearance showed no change, she could feel a robust strength bursting forth from her withered and shriveled muscles, completely mismatched with her outward form.

This feeling made it seem as though she had truly returned to her youth.

She sat up from the bed in shock, clenching her fists in astonishment, feeling her body more energetic than ever before.

Seeing Carter like this, Peter couldn't help but nod in satisfaction.

Next, it would depend on whether the Ten Rings were powerful enough!
