Lan Mu didn't have time to think too much about it. Instead of thinking about the mysterious life orb, he might as well study the benefits he gained from this transformation.
He entered the cabin and opened his spatial ring in his room, taking out everything inside.
The miscellaneous items didn't change at all, even the crimson and azure colors remained the same.
Lan Mu found that only the anomalies reacted to him and turned into Noble Artifacts.
"Damn it! What a waste! "
"I brought too few anomalies with me, if I had all the anomalies in the Lan Bai society on me, wouldn't they all turn into Noble Artifacts?"
Lan Mu silently shook his head, but quickly calmed himself down.
All the anomalies he had on him had turned into Noble Artifacts during his transformation. He estimated that even if he added more anomalies to his body, they wouldn't turn into Noble Artifacts anymore, just like how the Autobots chose to turn into trucks.
In the past, most of the anomalies weren't very useful, so he only brought the useful ones with him. But now that the side effect had been changed to mana consumption, the situation was completely different.
For example, the [Fantasy Right Hand] … if this thing turned into a Noble Artifact, wouldn't it be comparable to the Treasure of the Emperor?
However, since he didn't get this thing in the first place, he didn't care about it.
"There's no point in worrying about these things. Even if the bronze teapot, the Living Buddha bronze mirror, and the [Eagle Eye] all turn into Noble Artifacts, it's still better than nothing.
Lan Mu took out all the anomalies he had on him, and found that there were quite a few of them.
"10 pieces of Bastet metals, Clone Glasses, Equal Aura, Void Cloud, Gourmet Pot, Appraisal Gas, Gloves of Speech, Hidden God Blade …"
Without exception, all of these anomalies had turned into Noble Artifacts. As soon as he absorbed Appraisal Gas into his body, he immediately obtained the information of these Noble Artifacts.
Their abilities didn't change too much, even normal usages that didn't cost anything now required mana. The only good thing was that the side effect had also become mana consumption.
The Clone Glasses itself didn't have any side effects, but once they were activated, they would constantly consume mana, making them even more cumbersome. Lan Mu directly put them away.
The side effect of the Equal Aura was that it would consume the host's blood. Originally, this wasn't a big deal, but now that it consumed mana every second it existed, it became even more cumbersome. Lan Mu put them away.
The same went for the Void Cloud, Gourmet Pot, Appraisal Aura, and Spirit Speech Gloves. Originally, they didn't cost anything, but in the end, they cost mana.
However, it didn't consume much energy, so it was fine to use it when needed.
The Void Cloud's function was to make rain. It absorbed the energy of the Void and made rain out of thin air. Although it had become Mana Rain, Lan Mu could at least control it. It wouldn't float around randomly. When and how long it would rain was up to Lan Mu.
As for the Hidden God Blade, it could 'hide' together with the host. The original side effect was that each disappearance would last at least one second longer than the last. Because of this condition, although the user could control the duration of the 'Hidden God's Blade', it could only be increased and not decreased. If it was abused too much, it could end up disappearing for hours or even days at a time.
After becoming a Noble Phantasm, the side effect had changed. It had been changed to Divinity Concealment, which continuously consumed Mana. The more Mana it consumed, the more Mana it consumed. For the time being, it was still useful to Lan Mu. However, in the future, its benefits would become smaller and smaller, and it would gradually become useless.
The more Lan Mu looked at it, the more disappointed he became. In other words, after all was said and done, the items with the highest benefits from becoming a Noble Phantasm were the Space Ring and the Bastet Metal.
However, he wasn't greedy. A space where Mana could grow, and an indestructible weapon that could change at will, was already a great gain.
"Until now, I haven't found a material that's more powerful than the Bastet Metal. Only when I can control it can it truly be considered a qualified weapon!"
Lan Mu condensed the nine pieces of Bastet Metal into a sword. After all, changing it back and forth would consume more Mana, so it was better to fix it in one form for the time being.
Then, he squandered his Mana on the Space Ring. Because the expansion of the space could also increase the collection range, it could be considered a powerful attack.
…
When the warship slowly docked at an American military port in Japan, a Blood Breed respectfully knocked on the door, reminding Lan Mu that he had arrived.
"Special Envoy, Captain Minar is waiting for you at the port."
After a while, Lan Mu opened the door and walked out.
He wore a mask and a robe that covered his entire body. He walked slowly to the deck.
Standing there, he couldn't help but look up at the sky. The blue sky, the white clouds, and the gentle breeze.
His mood was a bit bad.
"What are you …"
Lan Mu had been using Mana to expand the space on the way here, but as he was using it, he suddenly felt a mysterious existence telling him something.
The general meaning of the message was that Lan Mu had to become its agent, erasing every existence that hindered the development of humanity.
At the time, Lan Mu was stunned, but through the sudden appearance of the message, he finally understood what was going on.
That consciousness claimed that the side effect of changing anomalies came from its help. Lan Mu could receive unlimited Mana from it, allowing him to use anomalies without limit.
The premise was that he had to become its agent.
Feeling something that was even more binding than a soul contract, Lan Mu didn't even think about it and directly rejected it.
Lan Mu couldn't possibly trust something that was obviously problematic.
Not to mention, he had already signed various contracts with other people and promised them various things, so the temptation to be cautious and resist in this regard was extremely strong.
"If I want to become stronger, I'll fight for it myself, why should I rely on your help?"
After rejecting that consciousness, there was no more movement.
However, Lan Mu's emotions were heavy, because he couldn't find any trace of it at all. This made him recall the lightning that fell from the sky when he transformed into the Fire Qilin.
At the time, he didn't think too much about it and mainly attributed it to the Fire Qilin's own characteristics.
But now, it seems that it wasn't just that. This consciousness had always existed, which might've confirmed one of his conjectures.
There was an anomaly that was everywhere.
"Is the side effect of changing anomalies a side effect of the Vitality Orb transformation, or is it the anomaly's doing?"
Lan Mu looked at the milky white sphere in his mind. The Vitality Orb couldn't answer him.
"Ah, unlimited Mana, is it that impressive?" Lan Mu didn't have much desire for the two conditions.
"But why did it find me? Did it find me because I became a Heroic Spirit, or did it just happen to find me at this time? "
Lan Mu suddenly remembered, the two times he saw the tip of the iceberg was when he first transformed.
The first time was when the Fire Qilin appeared, and the second time was now.
The first time, it only chased me away, but now it wants to subdue me …
"Why is that? Doesn't it know that the Fire Qilin and the Heroic Spirit are both me, Lan Mu? "
While he was lost in thought, Sina's shout suddenly woke him up.
"Hey, did you fall asleep? I hate sleeping the most! It's so boring! "
"Hehe, if you make any more noise, I'll lock you up." Lan Mu laughed as he got off the boat, putting this matter to the back of his mind.
With Sina's temper, she should've retorted, but after opening her mouth for a while, she swallowed it back down.
After being bullied so much, she didn't dare to throw a tantrum.
"Envoy, my name is Minar, the president has already ordered me to send you to Songjiang city, Instructor Fang is already waiting for you there."
Lan Mu nodded and got into Minar's car, while Sina and Elise got into the other car.
Songjiang city had a small population, but during this time, it had become the site of the competition between the two major forces.
On the way, Lan Mu asked about the situation.
Minar answered truthfully: "MPI has a total of 10 preachers, 5 of them are here, 1 is at the bottom of the sea, and the other 4 are in Songjiang city with the army to deal with us."
"I know, the ancient sword, the round fan, the chain, and the cigar, right? Have you figured out the characteristics of these four anomalies? "Lan Mu naturally wanted to know more about this.
Minar replied: "I've fought against them a few times, so I've figured it out. However, although the wielder of the ancient sword has fought against us the most, I still can't figure out what kind of ability he has. "
As Lan Mu listened to Minar's report, he found out that the wielder of the ancient sword had been discovered a long time ago.
The wielder of the ancient sword was the cheater Lan Mu discovered in the Apocalypse game. He was able to interfere with the Laws of dreams. At the time, Lan Mu sent people to take him in, but they failed many times, and even now, they still hadn't succeeded. Not long ago, he was recruited by MPI to join Riwa's containment organization.
It was reported that before he joined Riwa, he had escaped from the Lanbai Society's encirclement 4 times, and even defeated the Killer Ghost Lingqi. According to Lingqi's description, anything was possible when fighting against him. He could do unimaginable things in unimaginable places. He had once used the shockwave of a rocket explosion as a platform to run on fire as if he was flying … as well as stepping on the tip of a blade and easily jumping … he could even insert the ancient sword into the air to float!
All of these unimaginable combat methods, and the strength he displayed defied common sense, Newton's coffin lid was about to collapse.
The closest they came to a successful containment was when they sent out 5 4th generation Bloodlings. At the time, his blood was indeed frozen, and even his heartbeat was forced to stop. It was obvious that he was in extreme pain, but even so, without a heartbeat, he was still able to fight madly, which was extremely horrifying.
Ryu Yizhi was also the only wielder who didn't see any side effects.
"It's the same as in the dream … his anomalies can affect both the virtual and the real world!"
"Being able to interfere with the Laws of my dream isn't a big deal, as long as he has a strong will. But being able to interfere with reality … seems like he's quite a troublesome fellow. "
"But looking at the range and power of his interference, he's not that bad."
"Quite suitable for training soldiers."
…
Happy Chinese Valentine's Day! My mood is a bit off, sorry for the late update.
