Zhang Heng first picked up the slightly smaller tulewood box, which contained the game item he obtained from the last quest. It was also a gift from Dadatis before he left Rome.
[Name: Heart of Kreis]
[Grade: D]
[Effect: Greatly reduces the wearer's footsteps, heartbeat, and breathing. At the same time, slightly reduces the vigilance of creatures within three meters.]
The effect of Heart of Kreis in reducing the wearer's footsteps, heartbeat, and breathing was similar to what Zhang Heng had tested. However, Zhang Heng did not know that it could reduce the vigilance of creatures within three meters.
Because he had been wearing it for a long time, and his stealth skills were getting better and better, Zhang Heng could easily approach the Self-Defense Forces soldiers on Yonaguni Island even without the Heart of Kreis. Besides, he could not interview the target afterward. Naturally, he would not know what the target's journey was like.
This was also why he asked the bartender lady to identify the Heart of Kreis after he came back, even though he knew how to use it.
Other than that, Zhang Heng also noticed the difference in the description of the two effects. The wearer's breath concealment function was described in large words, and the reduction of nearby creatures' alertness was described in small words. Obviously, there was a difference in the effects of the two. However, these two attributes matched well, worthy of the name of the assassin's godly outfit.
This was probably the reason why this item was able to reach D rank.
After looking at the Heart of Kreis, Zhang Heng moved his gaze to the other wooden box. This was the game item he cared about the most.
Zhang Heng had always wanted to find a sword that suited him. Previously, he made a deal with Scarlet and got a chance to enter the Find the Sword quest. It was a special quest, similar to the Lego quest he had entered before. There was no penalty for failure, and if he succeeded, he would be rewarded with the game item.
Zhang Heng challenged all the dojos in Kyoto, and in the end, not only did he obtain the two famous swords, Juzumaru and Kiku-ichimonji, but he also obtained the nameless sword that Akane Koyama gave him. These three swords were also the best he could find in that quest.
The first two swords were Grade-C, and the sword that Akane Koyama gave him was the most difficult to obtain. Zhang Heng speculated that it was probably the quest's hidden reward, and its quality should not be too bad.
However, according to the dungeon's rules, he could only bring one out.
Just as Zhang Heng was about to make his choice, he met the guy who seemed to be the dungeon's owner. The latter proposed to trade one sword for three. After some consideration, Zhang Heng finally agreed to the guy's proposal.
In the end, he got an F-grade [Common Saber].
However, after looking at the sword's attributes, Zhang Heng decided to spend another 4,000 game points to recast it. To an individual player, this amount of game points was an astronomical figure. Only someone like Zhang Heng, who had been in dungeons for a long time, could afford it.
However, he had also used up all the points he had saved before, and he had no choice but to sell some of the items that he would not be able to use at a discount to gather enough money. It was not until the end of the last dungeon that Zhang Heng's points returned to surplus.
And now, it was finally time for the mystery to be revealed.
Even Zhang Heng felt a rare sense of nervousness, but it was fleeting. After that, Zhang Heng reached out and opened the slender box of tule trees.
Zhang Heng had seen the saber in the photos sent by the bartender lady before, but this was the first time they met in person.
Compared to the crooked appearance it had when he first got it, it had now been reborn.
After recasting, the blade was shortened by half an inch. However, not only did it not reduce in weight, but it also increased a little. Zhang Heng now felt more comfortable holding it in his hand, as if it was a part of his body. Zhang Heng knew that this also meant that the saber was very compatible with him.
Other than the length and weight, the material of the entire saber was completely different from before. It looked like some unknown alloy, and its color was darker. At first glance, it didn't look very flashy. However, when Zhang Heng tried it, he found that this saber could easily cut through the steak knife that the bartender lady gave him to test it out.
Under its harmless appearance, Zhang Heng could feel the hidden ferocity. Other than that, there was a "V" engraved on the handle, which seemed to be the signature of the forger.
[Name:???]
[Grade: B (Upgradeable)]
[Function: Forged with the hardest material in the world, it is extremely difficult to damage. Wounds caused by this saber will not heal, and because the phalanx of a god was mixed in the forging process, the wound will continue to rot. Damage to mythical creatures is increased. In addition, the forger also left room for upgrading this saber. Please find the method yourself.]
This was the third Grade-B game item that Zhang Heng obtained after the Infinite Building Block and the Pestilence Bone Bow.
It was also the fiercest Grade-B game item Zhang Heng had ever seen.
Its description was simple and straightforward. There were only three effective parts, and each of them was fiercer than the last. When Zhang Heng received the recast saber, he realized that the mysterious alloy used might be very unusual. However, the title of the strongest material in the world still exceeded his initial expectations.
This also meant that no matter what weapon collided with this saber in the future, the other party would be the one to suffer. And the fact that the wound could not heal was even worse. In other words, as long as this saber scratched someone, even if it was just a cut on the finger, they would still lose blood. One would also keep losing blood, and if the wound was a little bigger, one would basically die.
Fortunately, this saber wasn't particularly sharp. Otherwise, even Zhang Heng wouldn't dare to keep it by his side all the time. If he was accidentally scratched by it, he would die before he could even hurt his enemy.
When Zhang Heng saw the decaying effect, his expression became a little strange.
This wasn't the era of the battle of the gods. According to the old man in the Tang suit, the disputes between the gods were now resolved by this mysterious game. It was no longer as primitive and bloody as in the past, so the fall of the gods was not frequent.
The only god known to have died recently was the White Horse Knight, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. He was killed by Zhang Heng, and after Zhang Heng killed the White Horse Knight, the latter's body disappeared immediately.
Now it seemed that the body had probably fallen into the hands of the craftsman who recast this saber. He added a phalanx to it, causing the wound to rot. This was why Zhang Heng felt a sense of déjà vu when he first saw this saber.
Of course, the most ruthless effect of this saber was its last function, which was to increase damage to mythical creatures.
Among all the enemies that Zhang Heng had faced, the most powerful were the supernatural creatures. Almost all of them had different abilities. Even the old man in the Tang suit had to rely on the spear that could summon lightning to deal with Moresby.
And the saber in Zhang Heng's hand now had the same function as the spear.
