The Frost Heart wasn't a piece of equipment, nor was it a Strengthening Crystal. It wasn't a material or an embedded gem. It was a consumable, and its only function was to increase the capacity of the user's wind and water elemental pools by 5%, but it could only be used once on the same person.
These things were undoubtedly the spoils of war that Brando needed the most right now.
It was also the most crucial part of his path as a Planeswalker, something that even Tuman could not imagine — equipment, special items, consumables for upgrading, and strengthening crystals. There were many items in the world of Wohnde that could expand the Elemental Pool like the Heart of Frost and the Star of Flame. Of course, for the sake of balance, except for a small number of Divine Artifacts and Legendary Items, similar magic items and fantasy items did not increase the Elemental Pool too much.
But don't forget, Brando himself is special.
Because of the existence of the two Elemental Pools, the enhancement of these items to him was equivalent to double. For example, the Frost Heart's Wind and Water Elemental Pools could be expanded by 5%, but for him, it was actually expanded by 10%.
A double bonus was enough to change the original balance.
Brando even felt that Martha was especially fond of him. Before entering the Stained Frost Forest instance, he had already predicted that he would be able to obtain a similar wind or water elemental pool expansion equipment. After all, this was Erouine's most famous instance with ice type creatures. However, he didn't think that the surprise would come so quickly.
The drop rate of the Frost Heart in the game was only 0.003%. On average, this area would only produce one Frost Heart every one to two months. However, this time, they had only killed twenty to thirty Frost Demons. According to the standards of the game, this was already considered heaven-defying.
Most importantly, it was Maynild who had opened it. In Brando's mind, Maynild was basically as bad as his senior.
After the great happiness, Brando immediately used Frost Heart. The data of the Wind and Water Elemental Pools of the two Elemental Pools immediately became:
[Wind] (2120 + 1) + 5% — — — [Wind] (6360 + 3) + 5%
Water (2120 + 1) + 5% — — — — Water (6360 + 3) + 5%
Brando knew that the expansion of the Elemental Pool was calculated in the game. Equipment, Strengthening Crystals, and Internal Enhancement were all calculated separately. Other than the direct increase in the basic value, the other relationships were all multiplicative. Therefore, there was no need to pay too much attention to the order of use.
However, after the expansion of the Elemental Pool, the System prompted that the capacity of his deck had also increased to 6 (10) and 14 (20), which gave him a huge surprise.
Because this indirectly confirmed his thoughts.
The path he envisioned as a Planeswalker was to rely on eight or more Planeswalker creatures to quickly accumulate an absolute advantage on the battlefield. Every Planeswalker was a channel for drawing cards and playing cards. One round of drawing cards ten times and playing cards ten times. Starting with a hand of eighty cards, what kind of concept was this?
Even an apprentice who had just become a Planeswalker would understand how terrifying this was.
However, the only flaw of his deck was actually the limit of the size of the deck and the Elemental Pool. After all, Kelsie's idea was flawed. The Planeswalker creatures themselves could not provide the capacity of the Elemental Pool and the deck. This meant that more than eight Planeswalkers would have to draw power from his Elemental Pool and share only two decks.
If an ordinary Planeswalker's Elemental Pool and deck could not form a cycle, they would probably face the end of being exhausted in an instant.
However, Brando did not want to pursue a cycle in the ordinary sense. If he wanted to pursue a cycle, why did he have to tinker with this deck? Of course, it was not that he had not considered this problem, but he only had a solution.
His solution was actually very simple. With the natural advantage of being a high-level player, he could target and collect equipment that could expand the Elemental Pool. Through the accumulation of equipment and strengthening items, he could support a huge Elemental Pool. Then, in turn, a huge Elemental Pool could bring about an equally huge deck.
This way, he could ingeniously bypass the so-called bottleneck problem of his Planeswalker deck.
Of course, this method seemed very simple. However, in reality, it was almost impossible for anyone other than Brando. The world of Wohnde was so huge, and the limited ruins and underground cities were scattered across a vast area. To filter out the equipment that had the attributes you needed from the hundreds of millions of magical equipment, this was undoubtedly a lifetime of work.
Of course, you could also make your own. However, ever since the fall of Babel Fortress, most of the skills from the peak of the power of ancient magic had long been lost. Most of the top equipment in the world of Wohnde were gifts from the ancient times.
How could the craftsmanship of the Iron Folk surpass those of the Gold and Silver bloodlines that were favored by the gods?
Not to mention the Divine Equipment that had been lost in history. They belonged to the gods and were not something that could be born in this era of mortals.
However, these problems were not a problem for Brando, because this was what he was best at. What equipment was in what instance, which treasure chest hid what he wanted. Finding out these information was as simple as eating and drinking for him.
The only pity was that he was a Warrior in his previous life and knew little about the top equipment of the Wizards.
However, he did not expect that this problem would be solved by at least half today.
Because his senior sister was once a Wizard and an Elementalist.
After the Frost Heart was used, it disappeared from his hand little by little as if it was weathered. Brando looked at the deck that had just been emptied. He reached out and pulled out a card from the spare deck — Pristine Archangel — and put it into Pahimila's Faith deck.
Silver flames immediately ignited on the surface of the card. After the flames burned, the Pristine Archangel immediately changed its appearance:
Avenging Angel
Faith III
Light 15
[Spells]
Pay 50 mana and put the Avenging Angel (level equal to Priest Himilude) into the field to attack all enemies that have harmed the summoner.
Redemption. When the Avenging Angel enters the field, choose the top three cards from the graveyard and shuffle them into their respective decks.
Sustain. The Avenging Angel will be maintained until the completion of an attack.
"— The voice of Mass seems to sound from above the clouds, holy light descends from the sky, and the dead are revived."
When Brando saw this card, he couldn't help but be shocked. Although after he became an official Planeswalker, every card that he put into his own rules had to complete a sublimation of the law, it was the first time he had seen a card that had been sublimated to such an extent.
He couldn't help but be a little dazed. For a moment, he didn't understand where the key point was. However, at this time, footsteps came from behind the forest. Maynild was obviously about to return. He hurriedly put away the card, turned around, and saw the bandage wrapped around the female Knight's hand.
"Are you okay?" he asked with some concern.
"Don't worry about it, it's just a small injury," Maynild replied faintly. The female Knight came to Brando's side and stood with him by the shining lake. She looked up at the huge island in the center of the lake. There was a broad-leaved forest on the island that was different from other places.
Those trees seemed to be oak or mangrove trees, but the trunks and leaves were silver-gray, like ice sculptures. The frosty forest stood on the other side of the lake. From afar, it looked like a snow-white palace.
"The Crystal Stag is in that forest," Maynild replied. "Do you plan on going there directly?"
Brando glanced at the lake that was as smooth as a mirror and shook his head. "I'm afraid it's not that simple. The forest on the other side of the lake should be the Rime Forest. I heard that the Crystal Stag lives in symbiosis with some ice fairies. Those fairies usually live near the lake. I don't think they'll let us pass so easily."
"From what you've said, it seems like you've been prepared for this?" Maynild turned around to look at him.
Brando nodded. Although his instincts as a player had deteriorated a lot, he would never forget some basic things. For example, he would never forget the detailed investigation and thorough preparation before carrying out a mission.
Even if he couldn't find the River of Magic in the forest, he had actually prepared some substitute items before meeting up with Maynild. Some magic items similar to the White Deer Statue could also simulate dark detection abilities, but the effect wouldn't be as good as someone with experience.
"But let's try it first," he replied after thinking for a moment.
Maynild pulled out her sword. "Do you want to do it, or should I?"
"I'll do it," Brando replied. The ice fairies were Level-32 creatures. Although they were still a bit weaker than Maynild, they obviously weren't alone. Plus, the lake was their main battlefield.
With that, he lifted the Halran Gaia and slowly stepped into the lake. Just as Maynild said, the lake was very shallow. Most parts of the lake only reached his knees. Although the lake wasn't small, it looked like there was only a shallow surface.
In the real world, a scene like this could only be seen in swamps and wetlands. But Wohnde itself was a world bound by laws, so Brando wasn't surprised to see such a strange scene.
It was like if you had seen a river burning with flames, you wouldn't be surprised to see a shallow lake.
But Brando had only walked about twenty or thirty meters, and was about two-thirds of the way to the other side of the lake, when he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
He lowered his head and saw that the water around him was moving without wind, forming layers of water ripples.
"What a good way to treat a guest." Brando couldn't help but mutter to himself. He immediately recognized the prelude to a spell — Summon Water Elemental. Reality confirmed his thoughts. The layers of surging ripples seemed to suddenly become violent. In the blink of an eye, a water hill was formed on the surface of the water.
Then, with a loud bang, the gathered lake water seemed to have collapsed. A huge giant made purely of lake water rose from the splash. This thing's temper didn't seem to have inherited the gentleness of water. Instead, it was very irritable. It directly threw a water ball at Brando.
When Brando saw the diameter of the water ball, he couldn't help but curse in his heart.
It was a huge water ball with a diameter of more than thirty meters.
Of course, this thing wasn't enough to cause him any harm, but Brando didn't know what those damn Ice Spirits were going to do next. Once he was hit by this water ball, the Ice Spirits would definitely use their best ice magic to freeze him in the middle.
That scene was like a fly frozen in amber.
Brando had seen such a shameless tactic in the game with his own eyes.
But what made him even more frustrated was that the originally calm lake started to rise and fall. One after another, water elemental beasts rose from the lake. Looking at it, there were more than a hundred of them.
"F * ck!" Brando knew that at least half of these damn water elemental beasts were mirror images. Because it was also a classic water magic, but now he didn't have time to distinguish which ones were real and which ones were fake. Because he didn't want to become a piece of frozen pork.
He only took one last look at the direction of the lake and didn't have the slightest intention of continuing to walk in. Martha above, who knew how many Ice Spirits there were on that island. Such a large area of effect spell wasn't something that could be caused by one or two hundred Ice Spirits.
Brando didn't even think, he turned around and shouted at Maynild:
"Run!"
(PS: Today's third chapter is here. It's a little late. I don't know if the last chapter can be updated before 12 o 'clock. But forget it, it doesn't matter. Also, a lot of people are asking me who is the Witch King between the Roman and Mikaya. This question made me break out in cold sweat. Isn't this question very simple … The Roman became the Witch King in this world because of Brando, but in the game, Mikaya is the Queen in the game. Also, continue to ask for monthly votes, recommendations, and all kinds of votes. You know, it's the end of the month, don't think about it anymore …) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
