Open Your Quest Log - Chapter 499.11
In autumn, on a quiet afternoon, on a tree-lined path covered with golden fallen leaves, the sun shines through the gaps between the leaves, casting soft and fine specks. The air is filled with a leisurely and lazy atmosphere, and even the fallen leaves falling from the treetops have slowed down a lot under the influence of this atmosphere. One after another, the fallen leaves swayed leisurely with the breeze.
It’s a pity that this warm and comfortable scene like an oil painting was broken by an intruder who came galloping from afar. The man rode on a nightmare that breathed smoke and sparks, approached from far and near, and completely tore this gorgeous and lingering oil painting.
Who this intruder is obviously not difficult to guess, it is our barbarian adventurer Barrett. At this time, he rode the ‘carrot’ and rushed to the next mission location.
The barbarian who returned to the Muya city-state from the Holy Land of the Spirits, after a few days of simple rest, started his journey of crazy tasks. During this time he has completed several tasks. The task of helping the little girl to find a pet that was accidentally lost. Due to Barrett’s excellent search ability, the process of finding the pet went smoothly, but it took Barrett a lot of effort to bring that guy back.
Because the lost pet was not an ordinary pet like a cat or dog, but a juvenile shark lizard. Although this monster is still in its infancy, it has grown to two or three meters in size. Barrett used to spend many years in the foggy forest, but he had dealt with such terrifying large monsters a lot.
Known as the terrestrial shark, the giant predator looks like a cross between a snapping turtle and an armadillo. His character is grumpy and greedy, and he lives only to fill his stomach. It’s hard to come across a shark lizard cub, and people have almost never seen an adult shark lizard raising a cub. Barrett hasn’t seen one in the foggy forest for so long, and he doesn’t know that one. Where did the little girl get it from, and it is actually a pet, which is a strange thing.
Since this monster is so dangerous, even the young cannot let their guard down. So when Barrett returned the “pet”, he wanted to tell the girl’s parents, but unfortunately he didn’t see them.
The girl named ‘Joan’ was taken care of by several nannies and housekeepers. The housekeeper said that Joan’s mother died very early, and her father was always busy and rarely came back to see her, so the ‘little monster’ was the best girl ‘s playmate.
‘Little Monster’ is the name of the shark lizard cub. It seems to have a pretty good relationship with the girl. The guy will keep going around the girl like a domestic dog, and will lie on the ground and let the girl pet it. The abdomen is very well behaved, but I don’t know if this situation will continue forever.
Barrett and the housekeeper carefully talked about the habits and horrors of the shark lizard, and then turned to leave. As an adventurer, the barbarian is always a little uneasy about this situation. He doesn’t know whether he is right to return this monster pet to the girl, and only hopes that there will be no tragedy in the future.
In addition, when he was still doing the mission of delivering letters, he took care of a vulture-headed demon that was accidentally summoned. Fortunately, that demon is not the most terrifying kind in the endless abyss, and it cannot exert its full strength when it comes to the main material plane. a very dangerous thing.
After completing these two tasks, the barbarian couldn’t help sighing in his heart, “Man, sometimes I really don’t know what danger is.” The neighbor of the Nord Kingdom, the Kingdom of Fusai, has a proverb that is widely circulated on the mainland, ‘ If the storm doesn’t find you, don’t take the initiative to find it. ’ But not many people can actually do that. Of course, he couldn’t do it himself, because an adventurer was a profession that chased danger.
What Barret likes to do most is killing monsters and hunting tasks, because he is quite good at it. However, in places like Muya city-state, it is rare to find hordes of wild monsters or monsters in the surrounding area, so such tasks generally have to go to farther places or the underground world. Barbarians are currently doing all sorts of things like delivering letters, finding lost items or pets, and helping people taste home-brewed beer.
Suddenly remembering the task of tasting home-brewed beer, Barrett couldn’t help licking his lips subconsciously, and a lot of saliva poured out of his mouth instantly, but then there was a violent nausea and nausea, which made him almost fall on the ‘carrot’. .
There were many people who took on this task at the time. As a veteran beer lover, Barrett answered several questions about beer taste from his employer, and finally stood out and obtained the qualification to taste.
Barbarian tasted a total of 16 kinds of special beer with different materials and craftsmanship. One of them was the best, most refreshing, sweetest beer he’d ever had in his life, and it made him want to lick his glass clean with his tongue. There was another beer that smelled sour, more unbearable than rancid swill, and Barrett nearly spit out his guts just by taking a sip. But this disgusting new home-brewed beer is popular with another dwarf adventurer. The dwarf adventurer said the “special” smell reminded him of his mother, and then he shed a few tears…
It is worth mentioning that, after completing the first mission, the most beloved weapon in Barrett’s hand, the Emmaine Nemesis, has changed. The last entry in the equipment effect that requires completing a quest to activate – ‘Adventurer’s Sword’ has become the description it is now.
[5. Adventurer’s Sword: Since this weapon was repaired by activating mithril, the sword holder used his body as a repair material and also put it into the ceremony. This brought the system into brief contact with the weapon and caused a fundamental change in its characteristics. At present, this weapon can be strengthened in stages through different means. For specific strengthening methods, please refer to the requirements of each effect. Please note that some enhancements will completely change the effect of the corresponding equipment, if you do not want to change, do not make the corresponding enhancements. 】
Seriously speaking, Barrett did not intend to use his own body as a repair material. He saw that the broken ‘Iron Bride’ was about to be swallowed up by the wriggling activated mithril during the ceremony. When his mind became hot, he grasped it without thinking. Now it seems that the reason why the ‘Iron Bride’ was repaired into a ‘Nemesis’, and the reason why the arm he held was preserved, may also be due to the parasitic “system” in his body.
The activation of the ‘Adventurer’s Sword’ effect caused the other four entry effects to change more or less. Now the specific situation of this weapon is like this.
【Emaila Mei · Nemesis】
【Equipment effect:】
[1. Dragon Slaying Wrath: The damage to dragons is increased by 100%, and additional penetration and bleeding effects are attached. Strengthening: Level 0 (5 levels in total); Strengthening method: Every time a pure-blood dragon is killed, it will be strengthened by 1 level. 】
[2. Bloodthirsty Hunter (formerly known as Bloodthirsty Desire): When the weapon is stained with the blood of a certain creature, it will mark the creature as a hunting target, increase its attack power against it by 50%, and can Sensing the general direction of the target creature (new effect), this effect will last until the target creature dies. Strengthening: Level 1 (5 levels in total); next level strengthening method: Complete three pursuit missions. 】
[3. Demonized Body (formerly known as Activated Body): This weapon can self-recover like a living thing, and it does not need to be polished or dulled. No matter how serious the injury is, it can slowly recover over time. The effect of enchanting on this weapon will be increased by an additional 50% (new effect). Enhancement: Level 1 (total of 5); Next Level Enhancement: Fully immerse the weapon in molten Adamantite. 】
[4. Chain of Stars (formerly known as Star Impact): The blade shatters instantly, turning into 36 small serrated blades. The blades are pulled by the unique resonance force, forming a sharp chain whip. The chain whip form and the long sword form can be freely converted, and each conversion requires a certain amount of mental power. Strengthening: Level 2 (5 levels in total); Strengthening method: 300 points of soul energy to strengthen one level, and each level needs to increase an additional 100 points of soul energy. 】
[5. Adventurer’s Sword: Slightly. 】
During this time, Barrett was not only doing all kinds of small tasks, but he also did all the enhancement requirements that were easier to complete on the ‘Nemesis’.
The first enhancement of ‘Dragon Slaying Fury’ is definitely not necessary. It is very difficult to find a dragon on the main material plane at present, and even if it is found, there is a high probability that it is a relatively friendly dragon such as a metal dragon. . There is no injustice and no hatred, and Barrett can’t let this hand go.
As for the second entry ‘Bloodthirsty Hunter’, its first enhancement requirement is very simple. It only needs to complete a tracking task, so Barrett will take the task of finding the lost pet for the girl ‘Joan’. And if you want to strengthen it further, you have to complete the three pursuit missions. At present, Barrett has no plans in this regard.
Correspondingly, the first effect enhancement of the ‘Demonized Body’ is not difficult. It only needs to be completely immersed in the melted Mithril to complete it. Although the price of Mithril is very expensive, our barbarian adventurer is considered a small fortune, and he has obtained some in previous adventures, so we found a blacksmith shop from the city-state of Muya and completed this enhancement.
What’s more, the requirement of strengthening is only to completely immerse the weapon in mithril, not to buy all the mithril. Although the weight of the melted mithril became much less after immersion, the corresponding price was still affordable. However, the next level of strengthening requires a large amount of melted fine gold.
As for the fourth ‘Chain of Stars’, its first enhancement only requires 100 soul energy points, and the effect is to greatly reduce the time it takes for the sharp-blade fragments to reorganize into a long sword after using the ‘Star Blast’. The original ‘Star Shock’ required 10 seconds of guiding and pulling, but it only took 1 second to change to ‘Star Glory’ (the name after the first enhancement), and the usability and ease of use have simply improved by more than one grade.
Barrett once tried it in the field, and the 36 blade fragments have a very good lethality in the fan-shaped impact, and it only takes 1 second of short-term traction to re-condense the fragments into a long sword~www.mtlnovel.com~ It can then be used again. It has to be said that it is a very terrifying and effective means of group attack. It also consumes mental energy when using it.
The second boost of this effect becomes a Soul Energy that requires 200 points. Barrett worked hard to complete various tasks, and finally got his soul energy together. He wanted to see how the second stage of strengthening would work, and then ‘The Glory of the Stars’ became the current ‘Chain of the Stars’, fragments The attack method of the impact has also been changed to the chain whip form.
Now Barrett is not very accustomed to using the peculiar weapon of the chain whip, and he needs to spend a lot of time and energy to practice before he can use it proficiently.
For the effect of this entry, Barrett currently does not intend to strengthen it. One reason is that more and more soul energy is required for strengthening, and his own strength improvement and system upgrade also require soul energy, and the three aspects cannot be supplied. More importantly, this strengthening effect seems to give the long sword another attack form. If he has finally mastered the chain whip form, the third stage of strengthening is replaced by another unfamiliar weapon. It’s a bit of a loss.
After a period of rushing, Barrett came to a small wooden hut in the wilderness according to the guidance of a hand-drawn map. He habitually observed the situation around him, and reached out and knocked on the door of the wooden house.
