Chapter 34
034 Superior Runic Armament: Tusk Blade
Yuehua Academy, Moonlight Organization.
At this moment, in Lou Xiaoyue’s office, another person besides Lou Xiaoyue herself.
If Wu Wei were here, then he would definitely recognize this person. It was the War Hammer Girl who had sold him the broken bull horn.
At this moment, she was reporting her mission back to Lou Xiaoyue.
“I’ve been to Treant Forest and went into the secret dungeon. There were no abnormalities with the secret instance as well.
As for the log-out issue, that should be due to an overflow of spatial energy when the secret dungeon formed.
As you know, logging out is blocked in dungeons.
Therefore, it’s plausible that such a situation occurred due to the formation of the secret dungeon!
Also, this is what you wanted me to collect!”
War Hammer Girl handed a spherical object to Lou Xiaoyue.
Lou Xiaoyue took the object and thanked War Hammer Girl solemnly: “Thank you for your hard work, Senior Zhong. I’m really sorry for making you come all the way here for such a small matter!”
“I just happened to have something to do, so it’s not out of the way. But if you’re embarrassed, I don’t mind you adding more rewards!”
When she mentioned this, Lou Xiaoyue’s smiled gently.
“The school’s mission reward has a rigid standard, and I can’t change it casually. Please forgive me, Senior Zhong.
Also, I heard that Senior went to the trading area and sold some items?”
War Hammer Girl’s expression darkened when she heard the last line.
“I only sold some small goods. Are you going to take action?”
“I’ll close one eye this time, but please don’t do this kind of thing next time, Senior Sister.
The trading area is within academy grounds. No one is allowed to trade items of [Rare] or higher quality there. This is a school rule. Please don’t make things difficult for me, Senior Sister Zhong!”
“I know, I know. I won’t do it again. How annoying can those guys be!
I’m leaving!”
The displeased War Hammer Girl picked up the hammer and ran off, leaving Lou Xiaoyue alone.
Lou Xiaoyue’s gaze slowly shifted from her leaving figure to the spherical object in her hand.
She gently stroked the object and murmured: “When the log-out function was blocked, and the secret dungeon appeared, you came back. A coincidence, you say? Is this really a coincidence?”
..
Runic World. Within the spider lair in Labyrinth of Caves.
After the Spider Queen died, the remaining spiders lost their fighting spirit. Wu Wei was able to finish up the battle quickly.
When he was done, Wu Wei gazed at the sight of all the shining drops on the ground with a big smile.
The profits this time were not small.
The Spider Queen had dropped 1 green drop. It was not light green but pure green.
In addition, there were also 9 white drops and 17 common drops.
Most importantly, the wooden treasure chest was still unopened!
“This battle can be considered my most difficult battle since entering Runic World, but the loot is proportional.”
“Even the amount of experience points alone is so much! Yellow’s progression is already 100%, so it’s about time for his next breakthrough!”
However, Wu Wei shook his head.
“I should resist doing it right here. The environment inside this labyrinth is complex. What else might happen again? Therefore, it’s time to… lightspeed log out!”
The life and death moments that Wu Wei had experienced today were still fresh in his memory.
It would be wiser to leave the labyrinth first.
“I’ll open the treasure chest first!”
Putting aside the matter of advancement, Wu Wei’s gaze fell upon the treasure chest.
Because the drops would be easier to store in his Book of Runes in their current unopened state, Wu Wei decided to open the treasure chest first.
“A treasure chest is a bit like a blind box. When opening blind boxes, I’d never gotten lucky. Time for a change of luck!”
As he said this, Wu Wei began to hum as he took turns pointing at either Yellow or Golem.
“Eeny, meeny, miny, moe, who’s the luckiest of- them- all! You! Golem!”
Wu Wei patted the Golem Doll’s shoulder with an encouraging expression.
Yellow, beside him, seemed to understand and patted Golem’s shoulder like Wu Wei.
“Die, f**ker!”
“PFFT!”
Wu Wei almost spat out a mouthful of blood. He quickly stood up and educated: “That’s not the right line, don’t say it!”
Yellow appeared to be stunned for a moment. After a moment, he tried again: “F**ker, die…?”
“No…”
Wu Wei wanted to correct him, but when he saw how cute and silly Yellow seemed, he gave up.
“Forget it. Golem, open the treasure chest!”
“F**ker, die!”
Encouraged by Yellow, Golem rigidly reached out for the treasure chest.
With his hands of clay, he slowly opened the treasure chest.
The moment the treasure chest was opened, green light shone from within.
“No way. Is Golem my lucky charm?”
Wu Wei was stunned. Wooden treasure chests usually only gave High-quality items, and Superior-quality items were exceedingly rare! Wu Wei knew he was not the lucky type, so he was surprised to see that Golem was different!
“Let me see what it is!”
Wu Wei quickly peered over and found that the green drop was some kind of knife.
Wu Wei reached in and pulled out a one-meter-long blade from within the 10-centimeter-wide chest.
When the blade was completely pulled out, its attributes appeared before Wu Wei.
..
Runic Armament: Tusk Blade
Quality: Rare
Level: 10
Usage Requirement: Level 10
Bonus: Increases the user’s strength by 1 point.
Item Effect: Armor-Rending Tusk (Passive effect. Ignores 50% defense of level 20 or lower armor)
..
“What a powerful blade!”
Wu Wei was thunderstruck. He was beginning to understand why the [Rare] weapons sold by War Hammer Girl could sell for up to thousands of Runic Stones.
This Runic Armament was absurdly powerful.
Although it had no additional skills, it was much stronger than the Wild Boar Knife.
With this weapon, it was no exaggeration to say that Yellow’s combat strength would be, at the very least, doubled.
Wu Wei immediately equipped Yellow with it.
Seeing Yellow’s awe-inspiring appearance after equipping the blade, Wu Wei patted Yellow’s shoulder with satisfaction.
“Good. My Yellow is so handsome with this weapon!”
After a moment’s pause, the corners of Yellow’s mouth raised ever so slightly. “F*-…”
“Alright, shut up! Don’t talk!”
Wu Wei shut him up before he could finish. Then, he took out his Book of Runes and, lightly tapping it, returned to the real world with a ‘swoosh.’
What Wu Wei did not know was that not long after returning to the real world, at the entrance of the spider nest that he had been in, a Spider Queen’s Guard crept out and surveyed the surroundings. After confirming that there was no other presence in the spider nest, the spider guard suddenly collapsed. A tiny white spider with delicate features crawled out from within the Spider Guard’s body.
After the little spider came out, it danced with joy and ran to where the Spider Queen had initially resided.
Wu Wei had not thoroughly investigated the area, so he did not know that there was a tiny crack in the air.
An extremely fine, black gas was flowing out from within the crack. The little spider ran over and took a whiff of the gas, which seemed to please it. Then, it squeezed itself headfirst through the crack.
Wu Wei would never have imagined that he had just been used by a spider…
