Chapter 37: The Blade of the Split Mind
In the year 9941 of the Peace Calendar, the year of Ulysses in the Elven calendar, the location is the Church of the Holy Light in the city of Bisi, in the principality of mankind.
Archbishop: "Wait a minute, girl. Don't rush to send it yet, young man, don't rush to say yes yet. ”
Mina: "What's the matter, Grandpa?" You won't be reluctant, will you? ”
There is a problem, there must be a fried in this, and it may even be a king bomb!
"Of course, it's not reluctant, and we priests don't use knives. It's just that I'm going to make sure.
This elf boy, are you sure he's nice to you? You don't have a deep hatred for each other, do you? ”
To be honest, I'm still confused, because if it's that sword, there is no swordsman who doesn't like it.
The low-level artifact Tai Dao, which has been circulated for many years, fire attribute, I may guess what it is. After all, this knife is too famous, and its attributes are too rebellious.
"What did you say!? I said that Mojun was very good to me."
Stop, is it going to be a "good elf card" next?
Archbishop: "You're too young to know. For hundreds of years, few people who have used this knife have ended well.
The longest one, who took this knife, lived for three years and was killed.
The knife is said to be cursed. And every time someone takes it away, it still has to go back to our church.
It is not so much a collection as the church that is responsible for suppressing this murder weapon. ”
The Church of the Holy Light does have a saying that if you don't like a swordsman, give him the sword.
I seem to have heard this before, but I hadn't learned swordsmanship at the time, so I didn't take it seriously at the time.
Archbishop: "So, grandpa is not reluctant, after all, it's useless for us to keep it."
What does Grandpa mean by saying so much that you really have a good relationship with this elf, and you don't want to use this knife to harm him? ”
I seem to kind of get it.
Mina wanted to give me a superb sword weapon because of that 'Gu Killing Scale Inner Armor', but she didn't know that this weapon was so big.
So big that the old man thought Mina was trying to kill me with this knife.
"That's fine, the curse doesn't work against Mo Jun." Mina looked indifferent.
Wait, sister, calm down first. This knife doesn't seem to be a specific magic curse, but directly or indirectly affects fate, and I don't know if it's invalid?
"That's what you say. It's still a young man's brain. Brother Mo waits first, I'll go get you the knife for you to see. ”
Then the archbishop and the old man left in a hurry.
Well, I'm confused again. Our group was stunned. Nothing was done? Give me an artifact first.
Only Mina looked expectant.
Then the archbishop came back in a hurry.
"Here, take it and see."
It was a red blood knife with a blood-red glow. How many times has this been strengthened, so flashy?
The blade is not long, and it has a very slender feeling. The handle is quite long, with a red tassel at the top. Its name: Blade of the Split Mind.
Crack Psychic Blade, Artifact, Fire Attribute Attack. It has a special effect and has a very low chance of slashing the enemy's life force from one-third to one-sixth when attacking.
I grasped the hilt of the sword and took out the scabbard (the scabbard of the magic sword Apophis) with my other hand. The scabbard is an adaptive weapon, and the knife is sheathed, just right.
"Yes, this knife suits me." You're welcome at this time.
To put it bluntly, I want this knife.
"Young man, do you feel an urge to kill?"
"I didn't, but I felt the urge to do so. But I won't be affected by it, it won't shake my will. ”
"Are you sure you can control it? You know, there have been people like you before. ”
"No matter how strong the desire to kill is with this knife, it is always people who kill."
"Can you control your knife then?"
"Naturally."
"Good! The knife is yours. ”
"Thank you."
I drew my knife and put it away. Gently run one hand across the blade, then grasp the hilt and let the blood linger. Alas, the spiritual power is not good, and it takes such a big scene to refine a weapon, and it is troublesome.
The Crack Soul Blade is indeed filled with a killing intent, but it has nothing to do with me, and it doesn't affect me.
Because the killing intent of this knife is very pure killing, killing, killing. There is no bloodthirsty, the tyranny of the corpse in it.
Because my swordsman concept is also to kill, kill and take treasure, or kill and seize treasure.
The concept is basically similar to that of this knife, so there is no influence or no effect.
"What is he?"
"Ah, that's how our boss is, talking about what makes his soul and weapons resonate."
"Oh, well, I'm informed." The old man is still alive and learning at such an old age.
"By the way, do you have any other needs? You take such good care of Mina, I will try my best to meet any needs.
You'll be testing your strength in a few days, and equipping items is also part of your strength.
By the way, your name is Tower, come with me. ”
The old man left in a hurry, and called the tower away.
It was probably late, it was getting dark, and it was time for dinner, and the tower was back.
At this time, I finished refining 'Crack' and was releasing the little meow to feed.
It is very appropriate for Xiao Meow to wear a vest, in the form of a half-orc, and the vest is buttoned up, just to cover the key parts, and it does not affect the action.
When taking the form of a domestic cat, the vest covers the entire belly. It's a little uncomfortable.
Then the magical little meow, transformed into a half-orc form, and wore the vest in reverse. The place that needed to buckle became the back.
Isn't this a bra? I'm kind of just seeing it. However, when it became a domestic cat form, it just protected its belly, and Xiao Meow was quite satisfied.
In fact, the little meow was in half-orc form before, although there were no clothes. But there is fur all over the body, as if wearing a tight purple fur coat. Now when I put on a small vest, I can't see anything either.
Oh, and down to business, the Tower came to call us for dinner. How? Isn't that serious?
After dinner, we started talking about the real thing, about testing strength.
First of all, about the tower being called, it is the story of our adventures over the long years.
And what happened and how we got out of the 'Shadow Cave' recently.
We have long passed through the qi and said whatever we asked.
Anyway, so much time has passed, and the money of the Bounty Alliance has been settled, and the equipment is good, so I am not afraid of him.
And then the tower, the Iron Hanhan, really said everything that happened, and even said that we had built new equipment.
Therefore, the Holy Light Church of Bissia City does not plan to support our equipment this time, although Mina's grandfather is the archbishop, and the distribution of equipment still has to be accounted for.
It doesn't matter if you don't give it, the equipment we create is at least legendary quality, and if you give it again, you can still give it epic?
Then, the tower showed us his new weapon, yes, it is hard to imagine that such a thing would happen to the dervish tower.
I'd like to see what gives you the courage to show off in front of us! 'Ice Moon of Destruction' Totem! Epic! High-level epic!
Ahh Epic! Epic Totem! I want epic too!
Tears of indisputability suddenly flowed from the corners of each of our mouths.
Then the tower took out the 'Eternal Oath' and handed it to Mina.
Yes yes O epic cross!
It is worthy of being a large organization that has been inherited for thousands of years, and it is really wealthy.
"Lao Pa, you should now become a priest. Now full-time, it won't be long before you can be promoted and raised, become a great knight, be a judge, marry little Mina, become an archbishop, and reach the pinnacle of life. Thinking about it this way, aren't you a little excited? I joked.
"Mojun, please don't make such jokes. I have vowed to never marry and to serve the Light for the rest of my life. Mina seemed a little angry.
But I have to say, you priests take a lot of vows. Alas, forget it, it's true that such jokes are not fun.
"Oh, Lao Tzu is not rare, Lao Tzu has an epic. But Tower, I don't think you're ordinary, huh? ”
"Mr. Parker's eyesight is good, and the items I am wearing are made of materials obtained from the Demon Continent, and it is a suit that can strengthen one of my moves, 'Rapid Hurricane Fist'."
The tower seemed to be happy, and he talked a lot today.
"Suit?" I don't know why, but I remembered the 'Seven Wounds Sword' that Ah Lang gave me, which is said to be smelted from a set of equipment.
"That's right, and the church has also prepared a set of armor for Sister Mina to strengthen the blessing. However, because the suit was a more protective plate armor, Sister Mina refused. ”
This must be refused, and what will it look like if it is strengthened. Now that I'm finally getting used to the 'Holy Wings', don't strengthen it.
"What kind of armor is Mina wearing?"
"Shoes that increase movement speed and soft armor that has a lot of defense." Mina said with a smile.
Very good, it seems that Mina is very clear about her position.
If you can't fight, running is the king, your own life is the most important, and the sense and concept of fighting are very important.
"Everyone," the tower said again, "tomorrow we will test our strength, and each of us will only make one move, and the stronger the better." The greater the strength we show, the stronger the blessings bestowed upon us, the archbishop said. ”
As mentioned above, when participating in the 'Demon's Journey', the Church of Light will apply 'Divine Blessings' to outsiders, so that outsiders' attacks will also be inflicted with 'Divine Power'.
This blessing is given after a test of strength. The strength of the blessing is also closely related to the strength displayed.
"Understood!" X4.
"Oh", yes, it's me. The blessing obviously has nothing to do with me.
However, I still have to participate in the strength test, and if I make the strongest move, it must be the scabbard with the Seven Wounds Sword, and the 'Draw Sword Chop' is the strongest.
Nothing was said all night
Then the next line goes to the next day, testing the strength. This is done by attacking a giant crystal with all your might.
Crystals have the ability to heal themselves, so we don't know if they're magical creatures. But just in case, I put the last test.
"Tiger Overlord Fist!" "Name: Parker; Occupation: Street Fighter; Strength: High-end top! ”
"Strong dragon press!" "Name: Chrissy; Class: Battlemage; Strength: Intermediate top! ”
"Storm of Blades" "Name: Amy; Class: Assassin; Strength: Intermediate! ”
"Shatter!" "Name: Tower; Profession: Blue Fist Envoy; Strength: High-end top! ”
Okay, it's my turn. Looking at this big crystal, while being beaten, I can also identify everyone's profession and strength, I have long wanted to try it.
I have the scabbard in one hand and the hilt in the other, and I am accumulating strength. When I draw my sword, I must cut out the top of the high-level.
As mentioned before, the division of strength is related to attack power and destructive power, and it is also closely related to the professional's learning of the skills of the profession.
For example, now (at that time), I haven't learned to 'break through the air and draw a sword', and I am not considered a high-level top.
However, my 'Seven Wounds Sword' has a big increase in 'Draw Slash', and maybe it can be a 'high-level top-level attack'.
Draw the knife......
"Meow!" "Name: Silent Dye; Profession: Summoner; Strength: High-level. ”
Groove !!
"Ahh You let go of me! Don't stop me! Let me chop it, just chop it, I'm going to chop it! ”
……
Three hours later. I kind of calmed down, but I wanted to test again, so I found the two clerics guarding the test crystal.
Priesthood A, Priesthood B: "Hello Hello, how can I help you?" ”
Me: "Don't be afraid of what I'm going to say. ”
Priest A, Priesthood B: "We are the top of the ranks, we will not be afraid, please say (serious face)"
Me: "Whew... I just tested my strength and was robbed of the show by a cat. ”
Priesthood A, Priesthood B (leaning back): "Cat, which one is it?" ”
Me: "It's not one, it's a half-human, half-cat meow!" ”
(Whoa, Draw Doraemon.) )
Me: "It's not that round, it's a normal cat person." ”
(Whoa, draw the blue cat.) )
Me: "He's not blue!" ”
(Reversed, drawing a rainbow cat)
Me: "No! (Crazy)"
(Whoa, drawing the black cat sheriff)
Me: "It's not a male, it's not a female!" ”
(Clergyman A snatches it up and draws Catwoman.) )
Me: "Have you ever been to the Dark Forest?" It's the kind of half-orc cat demon, the kind that a cat kills a group of wild boar people. One dozen nines, casual show, understand? ”
Priest A: "Understood, you continue." ”
Me: "I was about to draw a knife at that time, I was so strong, who doesn't know?" Then, just a second before I pulled the knife out of its sheath, the cat suddenly jumped out and interrupted my charge. Then she scratched the test crystal nine times for a moment. ”
(Priesthood A, Priesthood B laughs.) )
Me: "What are you laughing at?" ”
Priest A: "I think of things that I am happy about. ”
Me: "What a happy thing." ”
Priest A: "The results of my test crystal test are high-level. ”
( Clergyman B laughs.) )
Me: "What are you laughing at?" ”
Priest B: "I'm also a high-ranking person. ”
Me: "You two made the move at the same time?" ”
Priesthood A, Priesthood B: "Yes, yes... (laughs)"
Priest B: "Ah, no, it's the same test crystal, measured at different times." ”
Me: "Again, I'm not kidding!" ”
Priest A: "Yes, yes." ”
Priesthood B: "Hey, hey, hey." ”
Me: "Knock on the table, hey!!" ”
Priest A, Priesthood B: "Let's get down to business, is this little meow you just talked about, is she amazing?" ”
Me: "It's not a question of whether she's strong or not, she's really that kind, the kind that is rare, her claws are very sharp, and her attack parts are all throat and heart. But he is often defeated by Mu Tianli. ”
(Priesthood A, Priesthood B laughs)
Me: "You've deceived people so much, I've put up with you for a long time!" ”
Priesthood B: "I am the top of the hierarchy. ”
Me: "You're laughing at me, you haven't stopped!" ”
Priest B: "Mr. Mo." We're trained so hard that no matter what your test results are, we won't laugh unless we can't help it. ”
Priest A: "It's better to do this, Mr. Mo, you go back and wait for a while, our Holy Light Church has a professional massage, you can experience it first." We'll let you know as soon as our findings are out. ”
Me: "Okay, I want to test it again?" ”
————
The above is an otherworldly version of the dialogue scene that occurred when I went to the head of the clergy to indicate that I wanted to test it again. Anyway, I'm angry right now.
That's the way it is, except for Mina, who doesn't participate, each person can only attack once. And since Meow is actually my contract beast, I lost the opportunity to draw my sword.
Just as I was drawing my sword and slashing to accumulate strength, I suddenly felt a change in my spatial ring. Bad!
The red and white balls suddenly jumped out of space, not only jumping out, but also opening on their own. Then a purple shadow burst out of the red and white balls! Xiao Meow scratched the crystal more than ten times in an instant, reaching the high-level top level. Of course, the strength is a high-level top contract beast, and the summoner only has high-level strength. A high-level and top-notch summoner who can summon legendary strength summoning beasts.
After that, I went to complain and apply, but they didn't let me take another test. I want to know what kind of strength I have, and it's not for fun, so why don't you let me test it? It's so stingy, let me cut it more, what's wrong, and it won't necessarily be broken.
After that, the six of them accepted the blessing, and yes, Little Meow also accepted it.
The ritual of blessing is simple, standing under the huge image of the 'God of Light', and the archbishop, who is Mina's grandfather, casts a spell on them to bless.
Immediately after that, we were arranged. The arrangement is clear. Take a direct flying boat to the underground crack of the Holy Light Church in Unan City to join the battle.
And in order to prevent Little Meow from giving me a whole moth again, I decided not to put her in the red and white balls. However, it is still necessary to take strict precautions, so I specially asked the forgers of the Bounty Alliance to create a special equipment set, and I am now fooling Little Meow.
The flying boat journey to Unan takes more than ten days, and Little Meow is always running around on the deck, like a cat who has never seen the world. Didn't you take her on a flying boat ride last time I went to Bisi?
So I'm fooling her seriously now.
"Little meow? Do you think this necklace looks good? ”
"It's not good-looking."
Tsk, why isn't this pretty?
"Isn't it wonderful for Meow to wear this necklace?"
"No meow."
This is not scientific, little meow, with your IQ, you shouldn't say such a thing!
