NABC Chapter 179 Your allure needs no disguise
Chapter 179 Your allure needs no disguise
Back in the Conqueror's Lair, Xu Si retrieved all the strange loot he currently possessed.
What happened in Tashan today made him feel that something was amiss.
Since he had some purification points coming in today, he decided to make two rare items for Tashan and Susu, one for concealment and the other for survival.
This also makes their hunting team safer.
Of the several strange drops he possesses, two can be used to craft the Awakening Potion.
One is an offering from a little girl—the [Abomination Finger Bone], which can be used to create the [Cursed Apprentice Sequence Awakening Potion].
The other item is the [Gun Horn] dropped by the level 3 eerie tower deer that Xu Si killed today, which can be made into [Gun Master Sequence Awakening Potion].
Besides these two, there are four other bizarre drops to choose from.
Among them, the [Deer Pearl] was just given to him by Tashan.
[Strange Drop Detected: Deer Pearl]
[Item Characteristics: Excess Gravity, Slow Growth, Violent Mechanism]
[Upgrade Option 1: Enhanced Artifact - Conqueror]
[Description: Effectively integrating multiple features allows for a perfect distribution of gravity within the vehicle, making it not only more fuel-efficient but also less strenuous. (Note: Who says vehicles can't evolve? Who knows, maybe one day it'll take off!)]
[Estimated Purification Points Consumption: 2200]
[Upgrade Option 2: Marvelous Item - Gravity Ring]
[Description: When worn, it allows for small-scale manipulation of gravity, influencing the actions of both allies and enemies, and also provides a certain boost to the wearer's strength.]
[Estimated Purification Points Consumption: 1200]
When Xu Si first received the second upgrade option, he was quite interested in it.
Unfortunately, this strange object doesn't distinguish between friend and foe; it would be perfect if it only affected enemies.
So Xu Si simply gave up.
Without Star Guide, he might have chosen this option directly, but with Star Guide, he can now fly on his sword, so gravity isn't as appealing anymore.
He was quite looking forward to the first upgrade plan. If the Conqueror could grow on its own, it was hard to imagine what it would become.
However, he doesn't have many purification points, so upgrading his vehicle isn't urgent for now.
The most urgent task is to get Xu Si and Ta Shan two pieces of stealth equipment.
He then looked at the other three strangely dropped items, all of which he had exchanged with Chen Pei.
[Strange item detected: Tidal snail shell]
【Item Characteristics: Water Ripple Resonance, Tidal Resonance, Sound Storage】
[Upgrade Option 1: Enhanced Artifact - Skull Raven Whistle]
[Description: Mental aphasia is just its most basic characteristic. If you want to unleash its full potential, please don't hesitate to use it.]
[Estimated Purification Points Consumption: 800]
[Upgradeable Option 2: Marvelous Item - Resonating Conch]
[Description: When blown, it emits sound waves of a specific frequency that resonate with the aquatic environment, possessing detection, interference, and limited information transmission capabilities. (Note: Don't blow it randomly in the rain; you might attract strange things.)]
[Estimated Purification Points Consumption: 1200]
【Tidal Shell】is itself a shell shape with a very rough surface, and it doesn’t seem suitable for Tashan and Susu at the moment.
The other two strange drops were Xu Si's real targets.
The two strangely dropped items are named "Mist" and "Six-Armed Legs."
【Fog】is like a cotton candy formed by mist. The 'cotton candy' is shrouded in clouds and fog, just like a restless fog that has been restrained.
It can enhance the Cloak of Concealment and also upgrade it into a rare item called [Immortal Mist].
【Immortal Mist】 has a misting property that makes it effective at concealing one's presence.
As for the [Heroic Arms] that is upgraded from [Six Arms], it has two stealth characteristics: 'camouflage color' and 'mimicry'.
Xu Si was very familiar with the [Mimicry] technique. Although it could not completely purify his own aura, the effect was still quite good.
These two rare items cost Xu Si a total of 2500 purification points.
Xu Si had just barely surpassed 10000 purification points when he fell below 10,000 again.
Current purification point: 7870
You don't know how to cherish the purification points when you have plenty.
What's the point of lamenting when purification points are scarce?
"Let's do another push tomorrow, we absolutely have to get the purification points over 30,000!"
Xu Si estimated that if he wiped out all the remaining [Lou Mi], he could earn at least 30,000 purification points.
Adding what he has left, he has about 40,000 purification points, which makes him happy just thinking about it.
There must be a return on investment! Otherwise, wouldn't he just become a sucker?
[Item upgrade complete!]
After a long wait, the two artifacts were finally upgraded.
【Fairy Mist Thread】is a light gray silk ribbon with a unique texture. It feels cool to the touch, as if it were woven from solidified mist. When it is gently swayed, it blends into the surrounding air and light, making it difficult to distinguish.
【Heroic Wrist】is a pair of dark brown wristbands with fine suction cup textures. They are soft and supple to the touch, yet subtly exude a sense of vitality and a powerful suction force.
[Current Rare Item - Celestial Mist]
[Ranking of Oddities: 2713]
Feature 1: Atomization
Description: Whether you can see it or not, the fog is always present and everywhere. This characteristic will infinitely reduce your own presence, including but not limited to your aura, energy fluctuations, and your status and image in the eyes of others.
Feature 2: Fabric
Description: Mist will be your most useful weapon; it can not only form threads and yarns, but also clothes and objects. (Note: Be careful when your energy is depleted, you'll be completely naked!)
【Feature 3: Entanglement】
Description: When you are enveloped in mist, any non-physical attacks, such as those involving energy, spirit, or curses, will be weakened.
[The Price: Am I really invisible?]
[Comment: Haze is not smog. Eliminating smog is everyone's responsibility!]
Xu Si was quite fond of this strange object; its properties were just too amazing!
His gaze then turned to the second strange object.
[Current Rare Item - Rich Wrist]
[Ranking of Oddities: 2877]
Feature 1: Mimicry
Description: My environment shapes my character; I am either influenced by my surroundings or become corrupted by them.
Feature 2: Camouflage
Description: Your color doesn't need to be faked, but mine cannot be faked. Imagine yourself as a stone, and you will become a stone. I'm telling you! (Note: Please don't take this seriously.)
[Feature 3: Six wrists
Description: What's wrong with having six extra arms? You can count them all—one…two…three…four…five…six…!
[The cost: Counting from one to six every day, repeating 100 times.]
[Comment: I hate kids who can't count. (Note: The PE teacher is absent; math class is today!)]
To be honest, Xu Si liked both of these strange items; it wasn't that he had any perverse tastes.
He simply wanted to experience what it felt like to have six extra arms, so he would never have to worry about his girlfriend being inconvenienced again.
However, this seems to be tailor-made for that big guy, Tashan.
It's hard to imagine that a giant with the strength to uproot mountains would have double the strength if he had a few more arms.
That would be like a demon lord descending from the heavens, or gods and demons appearing in the world; just thinking about that scene is exciting.
Previously, with only two arms, it was reasonable to use one hammer for one person; now with six arms, using one hammer for four people is no problem.
