Chapter 432: Restoration! Epic-quality Magic Carpet!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Luck might sometimes appear early but, at other times, could also appear miraculously at the very last moment.
There was an idiom on Earth that read something along the lines of, “extreme adversity marks the beginning of fortune”. This aptly described Su Mo’s current situation.
‘Twenty-three treasure chests were opened at the same time, which had accumulated sufficient probability.
Standing up, Su Mo took large strides forward. In the 17th treasure chest, he saw a new component that looked completely different from the previous four!
The reason why he said so was because it looked brand-new. It looked spotless, almost as if it had just come out of the factory!
Also, there was a vivid picture of a bearded genie on it.
The picture was outlined with gold thread. The component was still in the chest, so its extraordinary nature had yet to be displayed. Despite that, trails of golden light spilled out from the edges of the treasure chest.
“Oh boy, judging from the looks of things, this carpet must be more valuable than rare-quality!”
“The aura it’s exuding is comparable to that of the Mind Ring!”
$u Mo crouched down and slowly pulled the last piece of the “puzzle” out from the treasure chest.
Miraculously, after leaving the box, the component once again took on an old and time-worn appearance.
Divine objects really did tend to make themselves appear old and rundown!
The game panel opened naturally. Su Mo spent some points and waited for a while, after which the properties of the last component were finally displayed.
[The Genie’s Magic Flying Carpet (Rare)]
(Description: This is a magic flying carpet inherited from the family of the Genie. Thanks to the spell formations engraved on it, even mortals who manage to obtain this carpet can enjoy the feeling of soaring through the skies. Currently, other parts of the magic carpet are missing, but this component of
the magic carpet still retains the core of its ability, which enables the carpet to fly. Unfortunately, the dilemma of finding a suitable source of energy that can power the magic carpet has proved to be a difficult problem to solve for countless people who have obtained the carpet. Perhaps you can try to find
the other missing parts to make up for the current defects of the magic carpet.]
(Missing: This current component is Component 4. Gather Components 1, 2, 3, 5 to combine them into the complete magic carpet.]
[Special Abilities]:
[Consciousness Transmission (The magic carpet’s spell formation can sense the user’s thoughts and, through this function, the user can control the carpet. There is almost no delay in the transmission of thoughts; it feels almost like another arm. However, please note that more complex movements
consume more mind power. When your mind power drops to a certain level, you will fall unconscious. Please land the magic carpet as soon as possible when you feel that you are at your limit!)]
[Recovery (When the user sits on top of the carpet after it is placed under the sun, the user can enjoy an increased rate of mind power recovery. Current increased efficiency: 25%. Note: This function is not activated while flying. Please ensure that the magic carpet is on land first.)]
[I’m Gonna Fly (Shout the incantation “Ah, magic carpet, hurry up, let’s fly!”, and you will be able to control the carpet to fly for 30 seconds at a maximum height of 10 meters.)]
{I’m Gonna Land (Shout the incantation “Magic carpet, magic carpet, land quickly!”, and you will be able to control the magic carpet to descend quickly on its own.)]
“Whoa, this Component 4 is amazing! It’s actually not in a defective state, but rather it’s a complete rare-quality item!”
“One only needs this part to fly in the sky! This is something worthy of having opened more than 60 treasure chests!”
Feeling slightly shocked after browsing through the properties of the Component 4, Su Mo let out a long, relieved breath and put the five components of the magic carpet together without any hesitation.
One could only fly at a height of ten meters for thirty seconds using the fourth component!
The complete magic carpet, however, would make it possible for the user to fly for five minutes at a maximum height of one hundred meters.
The abilities of the component and the complete carpet were on completely different levels, which was made obvious by the maximum flight height and duration.
Su Mo prepared himself for the huge amount he would have to spend to restore the carpet. As notifications gradually popped up in front of him, Su Mo quickly examined them.

Wow!
This was Su Mo’s first time collecting fragments of an item of higher quality. He stared as more than ten notifications prompts flashed across the game panel, and then the words “completely free” at the end.
Su Mo froze and did not come back to his senses for a while.
The first time he drew a grand prize, his speedboat was upgraded from excellent-quality to legendary-quality.
He did not expect the restoration of this magic carpet, which would normally require countless valuable resources and over ten thousand Disaster Points, to become free again in a miraculous twist of fate.
Opportunities like these only came to people who were ahead of the curve. Currently, these “first ever” opportunities were all monopolized by Su Mo, and their effect was so overwhelming!
Dazed, Su Mo confirmed once again that the restoration would be free, after which he sat down on his butt and slowly recited under his breath, “I choose to… Restore it now!”
Although he could save this opportunity to restore something free-of-charge for later, he resolutely chose to use this precious opportunity after factoring the game version update that would come online.
Boom!
After his command, verses that sounded like chanting in another language could be heard.
Words in this unintelligible language began to ring out in the captain’s quarters, almost as if Aladdin himself was praying here.
Along with these verses….
The five worn out components came together almost immediately in a wonderful “chemical reaction”. They began to slowly rise up into the air, one meter above the ground, slowly vibrating.
‘When this happened, the dust, dirt, and stains on them began to slowly fall off onto the ground.
Golden light began to pour out from the carpet, trying to escape crazily like a bird of prey imprisoned in a cage.
As the party orchestrating this restoration, there was no way the game, given its substantial wasteland authority, would let the flying carpet assert its power like this.
Within three seconds, the deep sound of a bell could be heard, the air surrounding the carpet cracked open, and five rays of crystal-like light shone out from the cracks.
This light was not strong, but it caused the golden rays of light to contain itself obediently, like a mouse running across a cat. After that, the carpet started to come together.
Starting from the first component, the edges of the first component slowly approached the second component, which then connected itself to the third component.
When Components 1, 2, 3, and 5 were connected to one another, the fourth component slowly sat at the center of all the components, just like how a king would sit on his throne.
[Record]: Player Su Mo, your item The Genie’s Magic Flying Carpet has been completely restored!
[Record]: Player Su Mo, please note that the magic carpet cannot be used in combat because the Genie’s love for peace still remains within it.
[Record]: If you use the magic carpet more than three times in combat-related situations and cause more than 100 casualties, the magic carpet will automatically disintegrate and will need to be repaired using materials again. Please keep these regulations in mind.
[Record]: Have a nice time playing the game!
On the ground was a carpet with complicated patterns that exuded golden light. It was spread out on the floor of the captain’s quarters obediently.
After the five components came together, the magic carpet measured three square meters in size.
The fluffy material on the carpet was like animal fur. There was no wind inside the captain’s quarters, yet the individual hairs on the carpet still swayed back and forth.
Compared to the Mind Ring, this magic carpet was undoubtedly much more high-profile and fancy. Anyone would know at first glance that it was not an ordinary item!
“I can’t use it in battle?”
“What a pity. I was planning to throw bombs down from the sky now that I have this carpet…”
Looking at the metallic luster of the ceiling above, Su Mo muttered somewhat’regretfully”. Nevertheless, he was happy.
The last couple reminders were obviously added by the game itself.
About how the genie loved peace and that the carpet would disintegrate automatically… It was the game who set more regulations as it feared that Su Mo would cause trouble everywhere with this carpet and cause more trouble for the foreign races.
Fearing that Su Mo would be annoyed, the game included a promise to only take action after he breached these regulations thrice.
It was a pity that the game did not know that Su Mo really did not intend to use this in combat from start to end.
The duration of a single flight was only five minutes. Considering that any trip he would take would be a round trip, he would not be able to fly further than a couple of kilometers.
He could cover that distance easily with firearms. There was no need to take such risks.
Its biggest function, in addition to the passive bonuses, was to deal with complex scenarios. This was the correct way to use his new toy.
‘The game seemed to sense Su Mo’s annoyance, as it did not dare to charge for the carpet’s properties appraisal this time around. When Su Mo concentrated, the panel popped out obediently.
