Volume 3 Obsidian Chapter 264 Relics and Ascension
Chen Lun has returned to Amber City.
He released the little hedgehog [Careful Gardener], causing exclamations from the team members.
Floy, Noah, Golov and others had never seen a living creature before, and they were extremely curious for a moment.
When Connie saw the little hedgehog with red eyes running around the manor, eating up poisonous snakes, rats and cockroaches, she couldn't help but show a look of joy on her face.
Which girl wouldn’t love a little hedgehog that automatically searches for disgusting creatures!
If Connie hadn't been afraid of being pricked by the thorns, she would have wanted to pick it up and give it a good squeeze.
After taking the mysterious substance, the little white cat Bibu has grown a lot bigger. After seeing the little hedgehog, he seemed to have found a new toy and chased it all day long.
Fortunately, the little hedgehog was a strange creature and was relatively resistant, so it was not destroyed by Bibby's sharp claws.
However, after Chen Lun returned to the manor, he did not find any trace of Morey.
This made him feel confused.
At first, he thought Morey had encountered some , but after a little thought, he understood what happened.
I traveled back through the spirit world, and it only took me a few minutes. But Morey was only a Sequence 9 Beyonder, and he had to take a train from Pyrite City to Amber City, which would take at least four or five days.
'Even though I asked Morey to come back early to wait for me, I still arrived first in the end.'
Chen Lun was a little amused.
Seeing this, he decided to sort out the newly acquired items during the two days of waiting for Morey, and also copied down some extraordinary knowledge of the [Locksmith].
At night, after dinner, Chen Lun stayed in his room to check the relics left to him by Delink.
The first is the remains left after the other party's death.
[C-level weird thing - bloodthirsty bandage]
Item description: An item that contains the power of flesh and blood. It looks like a roll of medical bandage, but it can be felt to be slightly moving when touched.
It is suspected to come from a person seeking revenge, who longed to bandage the wound in his heart with a blood-stained bandage.
Help me get revenge, please...
Item Effect: When bandaged on a wound, it will continue to absorb blood, but it can provide the user with a corresponding strength bonus. For every 100 health points absorbed, the strength attribute will be temporarily increased by 1 point, and the duration is 30 minutes. (The upper limit is 20 points)
Item cost: After each use, you will fall into the negative state of "bleeding profusely", losing 10 health points per minute, lasting for 24 hours.
"A strange thing that temporarily increases strength by consuming life points...?"
Chen Lun looked at the bandage in his hand and was quite surprised.
'My current health limit is 2700 points. If I lose 2000 points of health, I can temporarily increase my strength by 20 points...
With the [Jingzhe] bookmark in hand, I don't have to worry about losing too much health all at once and getting into danger. This is a very powerful trick.'
He sighed.
'It's just that the price is a bit troublesome. You will lose blood continuously for a whole day, 10 points per minute, 600 points per hour... You need to treat it every few hours afterwards, otherwise you will bleed to death.'
But overall, Drinker gave him a great gift.
Considering his current strength attribute of 78 points, with the temporary addition of these 20 points, he would almost reach the strength threshold of 100 points for a Sequence 6 Transcendent.
Chen Lun picked up the rusty necklace again.
He had seen Drinker use it with his own eyes. The other party was covered with a set of hideous armor, which seemed to enhance his combat effectiveness in all aspects.
But after putting on that set of armor, he would fall into a bloodthirsty and crazy fighting form.
Even if they are unwilling, they will be driven by the armor and fight non-stop.
Extremely evil.
[A-level weird item - Balaguer necklace (incomplete)]
Item description: An item with conspiratorial power, it looks like a rusty necklace with a pendant of a ball of tangled wire.
It is suspected to come from a saint who does not exist in this world. He is keen on provoking wars and killings. The fall of the Cardan Territory and the Buturia Territory in the United Kingdom of Anlong may be related to him.
Everyone has a desire for destruction in their heart, I just provided a little help...
Item Effect: After use, you will be forced to wear a set of heavy armor evolved from the subconscious of killing, which will stimulate deep fighting instincts and desires, lose the sense of pain, and enhance strength, dexterity and endurance. (The increase is 20 % of your own attributes)
Item cost: Once used, it cannot be released at will and the battle ends until death.
Forced release requires a willpower judgment. (Willpower requirement is no less than 50 points)
Or you can disarm after consuming a lot of sanity. (No less than 100 sanity points, depending on the usage time)
'This necklace... is so powerful!'
Chen Lun looked at the necklace in his hand and said with emotion that it was indeed an A-level weird object.
'It increases Strength, Agility and Endurance by 20% of its own attributes. This is quite exaggerated... According to my current panel, it can increase Strength and Agility by 15 points, and Endurance by 13 points!'
His eyes sparkled with excitement.
'And this also means that it will not fall behind just because of the improvement of its own strength. It is a disguised growth monster... As long as I become stronger, it will become stronger! '
Chen Lun slowly put it around his neck and it fell on his chest together with the shell necklace.
'As for the price, it is indeed very high... If I didn't have "Philip's Adventures in Wonderland" and the Maggie statue that can store sanity points, I am afraid that once I use it, it will be difficult to get rid of it, and I will be trapped in an endless battle.
After all, I only have 25 points of willpower now, and I can't pass the removal judgment at all.'
But he was not like Drinker, who had the necklace but did not dare to use it easily.
As the new owner, Chen Lun can use this powerful creature at any time to put on a set of terrifying armor for himself. Afterwards, he only needs to spend enough Sanity points to remove it.
Reason is the last thing he lacks.
Players are now supplying him with energy all the time, and the amount of sanity stored in the statue is almost approaching ten thousand points.
Chen Lun slowly stroked the "wire ball" on the pendant of the necklace and felt a thought coming. The Balag necklace was urging and instigating him to put on armor and fight.
He smiled and said to the necklace:
“Don’t worry, there will be a time when you can be of use… What will it look like with bandages, armor, and extreme state? Can you fight against Sequence 5?”
It is probably unimaginable for a Sequence 7 to leapfrog two levels and fight against a Sequence 5.
Now Chen Lun seemed to see a glimmer of hope.
After checking Drink's relics, Chen Lun spent a whole night reading "The Keyhole" and gained the extraordinary knowledge of "Locksmith".
Then I made several copies.
…
…
…
Two days later.
Morley finally arrived at Jack's Manor and was received by Floy personally.
Seeing him holding the token given by Chen Lun, and hearing what he said, Floy realized that this was a new member of the team.
So Floy let Morey meet the other members so that they could get to know each other briefly, and then she temporarily arranged for him to stay in an empty room on the third floor.
After half a day of adaptation, Morey accepted his new identity.
At the same time, he was also somewhat familiar with the other members, especially Golov and Patton.
I don’t know if it’s because their strengths are similar, or because they are all extraordinary people who have worked hard at the bottom, so they have some common topics.
Overall, this team makes Morey feel a sense of belonging.
The members were friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed; there was none of the strict hierarchy and harsh rules that he had originally imagined.
That evening.
Chen Lun asked Floy to prepare a sumptuous dinner as a welcome ceremony for the new member Morey.
All team members were present except Maggie who was still studying with Akbin.
This made Morey a little flattered.
He never thought that as a new member, he would be welcomed so warmly by everyone.
“This is the extraordinary knowledge I promised, [Sequence 8 - Locksmith]…”
Chen Lun took out a handwritten manuscript and said to Morey on the other side of the table.
The latter quickly stood up and bowed respectfully.
"Thank you, Mr. Jack!"
He seemed a little excited because this was what he had always dreamed of.
Golov and Patton, who were sitting next to him, were both stunned.
[Sequence 8 - Locksmith]?
Isn't this the extraordinary knowledge that they also desire very much... God knows how long the two of them have been stuck at Sequence 9. They have already accumulated enough mystical knowledge, and they can easily advance with just the extraordinary knowledge.
"Of course, you two can't miss a share, Golov, Patton."
Chen Lun chuckled and took out two more handwritten manuscripts.
Golov and Patton stood up so quickly that their knives almost fell to the ground.
"Thank you, Mr. Commander!"
The two of them saluted, looking excited.
It seems that the leader has not forgotten them.
Very good!
Chen Lun handed three copies of the manuscript containing extraordinary knowledge to Connie, who then passed them on to the three people.
Seeing the three people eager to look through it, Chen Lun shook his head and said:
"Don't be so anxious, eat first... After dinner, go back to your room and watch it slowly."
"Ah... yes, Mr. Captain!"
Golov and others smiled embarrassedly.
"In addition to extraordinary knowledge, I have a gift for you... The newcomer Morey also gets a share."
As Chen Lun spoke, the three "behind-the-scenes personnel" were all shocked.
They all know that the team leader usually doesn't give gifts, and if he does, it must be something good!
Chen Lun took out the strange objects he had selected in advance, a total of six, and placed them all on the table. Then Connie handed them to the members one by one.
Golov got the [Gun of Order] and [Surging Medal], and Patton got the [Flame Tattoo Needle] and [Paul's Friday].
New member Morey gets the [Twisted Sawblade] and [Floating Etiquette], a bone-crushing knife that increases strength, and a tie that can protect himself.
Although these monsters are only D-level, the price is within an acceptable range and the cost-effectiveness is quite good, so Chen Lun took them out and gave them to the members to increase their combat effectiveness.
Chen Lun looked at the three ecstatic people, smiled and nodded.
'After they are all promoted to Sequence 8, with these new equipment, the minimum strength of the team members will be raised... Next, we need to help Floy to advance to the middle sequence.'
