Chapter 74: Infernal Blade - Part 2, Sword Binding
He saw the bald old man at a very close distance, making him feel a bit breathless and sensing the heat emanating from the old man's body.
"Young man... I, Wang Cai, sincerely thank you on behalf of the Qian race," the bald old man smiled broadly. He had previously observed Lein from above the sky, and everything Lein did brought great victory to the battle on battlefield #44.
"It's nothing, Senior... I'm just a stranger who happened to help," Lein said humbly, afraid to offend the old man in front of him.
"Hahaha... good, good... you are very clever," Wang Cai was very pleased with Lein's behavior.
He then looked at the three items dropped by Bao Ruong earlier. His smile widened when he saw the three items, especially the gold ring and the transparent disc.
"What is your name?" the old man asked Lein while taking the three items and storing them.
"Senior, my name is Lein," Lein replied obediently, still standing calmly behind Wang Cai.
"First, take this as the reward I promised earlier," Wang Cai said. Immediately, the old man took out a paper with a few words written on it.
(Wang Cai's Message Card) This card can be redeemed at any Qian race war office to obtain the corresponding contribution points.
- Contribution Points +10,000,000
Lein received the paper with both hands and immediately stored it. He then observed the old man Wang Cai as before.
"Then... since you have helped me finish the battle and survived on battlefield #44."
"Take this."
Lein saw the old man Wang Cai throw a black sword that looked very similar to his current holy sword.
(Infernal Blade - Part 2)
- Level: 41 (Growth)
- Attribute: Str +836, Int +856, Agi +870, Res +878
- (Abyssal Curse) Each attack will inflict a random negative effect on the enemy (Dizzy, Paralyze, Sleep, Silence, Blind, Confusion, Weakness), base attribute +20%, damage increased by +20% for 1 minute, Cooldown 10 minutes.
"My God... why is my luck so high this time?" Lein screamed in his heart. He felt his luck had exceeded the maximum limit. Starting from being saved from a creature above the master level, obtaining a hidden mission with a reward of 10,000,000 contribution points, getting a heaven-level artifact, and now receiving the second part of his holy sword.
"Thank you, Senior... This junior will remember your kindness," Lein sincerely expressed his gratitude. The old man in front of him was the person who had given him the most high-level items during his time in another realm during the inter-race war event.
"Hhhh... it's good that you know. See you again, young man," the old man said with a happy smile on his face. He had just checked the contents of Bao Ruong's gold ring, and Wang Cai's smile widened, no less than Lein's.
Immediately after bidding farewell, Wang Cai disappeared from Lein's sight, leaving Lein standing still, contemplating all the events that had happened today.
After a while, he looked back at the black sword he had received earlier. No matter how he looked at it, this black sword was very similar to his current holy sword. Even the attributes and skills were very similar, except for the unique effect. Where the holy sword would heal him with each slash, while the black sword would inflict random negative effects.
As Lein looked at the black sword, he also saw new information displayed by the system.
[Detected that the owner has another part of (Infernal Blade - Part 2) with (Divine Sword - Part 1), you can perform (binding)]
[Perform (binding)?]
Lein was slightly confused about what binding meant, but since the system issued the command, it should be a good thing. So Lein agreed,
"yes."
Immediately, the gold sword and the black sword floated in front of Lein, each sword emitting its original light. The black sword with a thick dark aura and the gold sword with a very dazzling white light. The two swords spun around Lein for several turns. After a few minutes, the two swords stopped spinning and remained floating around Lein.
"Wow..."
Lein felt a connection with both swords and could control them as he pleased. Lein could even absorb both swords into his body.
"I wonder if I can fly while riding them," Lein muttered, then jumped onto the black sword.
Fuh...
Swuhhh...
Yes, the sword could carry Lein to float and fly quickly. Lein felt the strong wind blowing against his face. "Refreshing..." Lein muttered as he spun around in the sky on the black sword.
"Amazing... are there any other effects?" Lein landed back on the ground and checked the sword's status panel.
(Infernal Blade - Part 2)
- Level: 41 (Growth)
- Attribute: Str +1050, Int +1034, Agi +1061, Res +1078
- (Abyssal Curse): Each attack will inflict a random negative effect on the enemy (Dizzy, Paralyze, Sleep, Silence, Blind, Confusion, Weakness), base attribute +30%, damage increased by +30% for 1 minute, Cooldown 10 minutes.
- (Binding Skill): (Echo Phantom: Clone with 50% attribute), (Bladewarp: Teleportation to sword place), (Phantom Exchange: Exchange position with sword), (Phantom Assault: Swords passively auto-attack nearby enemies).
Huft... hishhh
Lein took a deep breath. Isn't this sword too overpowered for level 41? What kind of sword was given by that middle-aged crowned man?
Hmm...
Lein recalled when he first got the sword from the middle-aged man during the Tier-1 promotion exam; that was when he got his first gold sword. Now, the old man Wang Cai gave him the second part of the sword.
After performing the binding, Lein saw that the sword's attributes increased by approximately 10%. Then there were five new additional skills. The same status also appeared on the other gold sword.
First, Lein tried using the (Echo Phantom) skill.
Immediately, the black sword in his hand transformed for a moment before finally a figure appeared. The figure was exactly like Lein, with short black hair and a blue robe, everything the same, without any difference.
The first thing Lein thought of was duplicating the black sword. However, he put that thought aside for now because he had just used duplication on the transparent Vortex Plate.
