Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game-Chapter 712 - 352 The Divine Big Sword, Damaged Umbilical Cord_2
However, The Imperial Swordsmith’s crafting level could only produce weapons of Legendary Grade quality, unable to forge weapons of Legend+ Level quality.
For the ’Purgatory Angel’, with a list of Legend+ Level gear, having only one Legendary Grade weapon always seemed a tad imperfect to Lin Xun.
Well, he admitted that his obsessive-compulsive disorder was kicking in.
To get a weapon that matched the quality, he either had to find a stronger blacksmith Shell or obediently pay money to the underworld game and let ’The Artisan’s Book’ craft it.
"Huh, did I forget something?"
Lin Xun scrolled down his inventory and quickly found the long dusted artifact - ’Bloody King’s Sword’. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
This awesome weapon was not a fake artifact like ’Tiansui Blooming Rice’s Harvest Sickle’.
It was a genuine Mythical+ Level weapon, the weapon of ’King’s Sword Ethan’ who was once a Demigod at its peak and now had become a deity.
He tried to move the weapon into the slot of the Purgatory Angel’s weapon, but as expected, he received a notification from the game.
[You haven’t reached the Demigod Realm yet and cannot equip this weapon!]
[If forcibly equipped, the weapon’s effects and special skills will not trigger, and the weapon’s attack power will decrease according to the equipped Shell!]
Ignoring the weapon’s description ’The sword weighs ten thousand pounds, and only those with innate divine power can wield it’, Lin Xun forcefully equipped this Mythical+ Level piece of equipment.
[You have forcibly equipped the ’Bloody King’s Sword’ (Mythical+ Level Weapon)!]
The Purgatory Angel itself already had Legend+ Level quality, even if the weapon fell with the Shell quality, he could still tied over a high-quality weapon for free.
Compared to the Legendary Grade exclusive weapon, ignoring the weapon’s special skill, a higher grade Legend+ Level weapon undoubtedly possessed a stronger attack power.
The abdomen of the Military Mole Cricket was very spacious, about half the size of a basketball court.
Having equipped the new weapon, Lin Xun felt eager to try it out. He took this opportunity to possess the ’Purgatory Angel’ and experiment with swinging the weapon.
[...]
[You have taken possession of the ’Feathered Prototype Purgatory Angel’ Shell!]
[In your sharp bone claws, there appears a huge sword with a blade as wide as a door panel!]
[The vast sword exudes a blood red aura, like a crimson ribbon, just by staring at the sword, you feel your mouth drying up, an insane blood-lust emerging from the bottom of your heart!]
[You only feel a heaviness in your arm, employing all your strength you can only drag the large sword and move slowly. With great difficulty, you can barely swing it. It feels less like you are controlling the sword and more like the sword is controlling your attacks.]
[In such a forced situation, your advantage of speed will be completely wiped out.]
[After barely swinging the sword twice, the ’Military Mole Cricket’ emits a sound of unease and its abdomen trembles continuously. It seems to fear the power of the sword...]
"Ignoring risks, access failed..."
Lin Xun felt helpless, perhaps the power attribute of the Purgatory Angel had not yet met the standard.
Forcing the weapon on not only didn’t make him stronger, but to the contrary, it made him weaker.
[’Jinmu’ scratches its head looking at the weapon in your hand; it seems to sense the power of the bloody sword. ]
[’Flandre’ is taken aback, its eyes filled with curiosity. It seems to want to say something but holds back. ]
[You can’t help but ask ’Flandre’ if there is something wrong with this weapon. ]
[’Flandre’ shakes its head, explaining to you that it can feel an extremely powerful force within your weapon. That power is close to that of a true artifact. ]
[It was just a moment of desire, wanting to play with it for a bit, yet feeling somewhat presumptuous. ]
[You pretend to be very generous, but in reality, you had to exert all your strength to pass the ’Bloody King’s Sword’ to ’Flandre’.]
[’Flandre’ with its slender and pale hand holds the hilt of the sword, lifting the blood-colored giant sword with a light grip. ]
[Suddenly, the blood-colored aura surrounding the sword soars, filling the entire abdomen with a bloody hue!]
[’Flandre’ makes a few swings with ease, causing the ’Military Mole Cricket’ to cry out in distress, its trembling becoming more severe. ]
[After a few swings, ’Flandre’ returned the bloody sword to you. ’Jinmu’ on the side also seemed eager to try. ]
[However, ’Flandre’ shook its head, stopping ’Jinmu’. It slowly said that this weapon was close to birthing a consciousness, it was a weapon close to being an artifact. ]
[To wield this weapon, one needs an extremely strong physical force. Even reaching the realm of a Demigod, without a peerless physical force, one cannot control the weapon. ]
[Their former civilization revered biological modifications, continuously breaking the limits of physical strength, thus possessing the ultimate strength and unparalleled speed. ]
[The container you have just received was cloned based on it. As long as you can breakthrough to the realm of a Demigod, you can possess the physical strength to wield this weapon too. ]
[’Flandre’ returned the bloody sword to you, the ’Bloody King’s Sword’ returned to its dim blood hue...]
Lin Xun took a deep breath, unequipping the weapon and stowing it back in his inventory.
The bad news was that he couldn’t use the weapon for now. The good news was that as long as he successfully transforms and progresses to the Demigod Realm, he can equip the weapon without any problems.
A Demigod level transformation skill, coupled with a Mythical+ Level weapon, will undoubtedly bring a significant increase to the Purgatory Angel’s power.
He continued with his business, inspecting the loot in his inventory.
["Feathered Angel’s Heart" (Epic+ Level Item): A continuously beating heart, covered in twisted and transverse blood vessels. It lacks any holy aura, giving one a cruel and abnormal feeling.]
