Chapter 44: Silver Coins of the Deathly Mad Sword Princess

Views:

With the interlude of the experience orb, the distribution of the remaining three magic spirits naturally became easy and comfortable.

Although Sonia strongly requested that all three magic spirits belong to Ash, after careful identification, Ash chose to take the two less valuable "Fox Fire" and "Light" for himself, and gave the most useful "Moon Silk" to Sonia.

Fox Fire

"One-winged spirit"

"Restriction: The magician must have a tail."

"Basic effect: Use the tail to swing out varying amounts of blue flames. The blue flames can attach to a specific object and burn for a period of time. The burned target will not feel pain and may even feel pleasure."

"Passive effect: The hair on the body becomes more luxuriant and flammable."

"'Pain and pleasure are actually just an illusion. When you burn away the superficial surface used to disguise, you can see the inner truth.'"

...

"light"

"One-winged spirit"

"Restrictions: The magician must have a luminous medium or a light source nearby."

"Basic effect: emits a light that can be suspended in the air and move flexibly according to your wishes."

"Passive effect: You are more alert in well-lit areas."

"'It is not the light that drives out the darkness, but the darkness that drives out the light.'"

...

"Moon Silk"

"One-winged spirit"

"Restrictions: The magician must have a luminous medium or a light source nearby."

"Basic effect: Creates multiple temporarily suspended, stretched threads of moonlight."

"Passive effect: You become lighter in the moonlight."

"'Listen, the moonlight is weaving the curtains of the night.'"

Obviously, "fox fire" and "light" should be Fox Dragon's main means of attack. By attaching the fox fire to the light, it can cause continuous and flexible fire attacks.

Fortunately, the two of them beat up the sleeping Fox Dragon, otherwise the "Fox Fire Lamp" alone would be enough to get them into trouble, not to mention the "Moon Silk" - Sonia tried it out and found that it could create steel-hard and straight silk threads in the air. Anyone who bumped into it would be cut in an instant by the silk threads. It was simply a trap.

Originally, Ash also wanted to take the 'Moon Silk', but he couldn't use the magic spirit in prison, so no matter how good the magic spirit was, it would be meaningless for him, so he chose 'Fox Fire' and 'Light' and would use them to buy krypton gold later - neither of them had a tail, so they didn't have the conditions to use the 'Fox Fire Light'.

The stronger 'Moon Silk' was given to Sword Lady as a research assignment. After all, her learning experience would also be shared with Ash, and Ash couldn't let her be without a workbook.

At this time, Ash suddenly realized a problem: "Can we exchange magic spirits in the virtual world?"

Sonia knew what he wanted to do as soon as he heard it: "You want me to help you find the magic spirit that killed my miracle, and then take it to the virtual world to exchange?"

"Yeah, after all you—"

"impossible."

"ah?"

"Don't ever break the connection between you and the magic spirit in the virtual world, or something serious will happen."

Ash's throat gurgled.

"Yes, what will happen?"

"The magic spirit will run away in an instant. In an instant."

"… Can't we catch him back?"

Sonia shook her head. "No magician can catch him back. Perhaps you don't realize that we magicians are foreign travelers. In this virtual world, magic spirits are the real masters."

"Although spirits are not considered living things, and even whether they can think is questionable, there is no doubt that spirits have certain instincts - such as the desire for freedom."

Thinking of how the sorcerers he met on the Adventure Island last time all fled quickly, Ash couldn't help but nodded, but he was still a little confused.

"The magic spirit runs very slowly, why can't we catch it?"

"Because those are the spirits that have never been caught. Which do you think is more vigilant, a mouse that has been caught once or a mouse that has never been caught? Learning is also the instinct of spirits."

"But even if the magic spirit is very alert, it can't run fast."

Sonia nodded and then shook her head. "In reality, what you said is correct. When you break the connection with the magic spirit in reality, although the magic spirit will escape, it has little impact on reality and can be easily caught."

"But the Void Realm is the home of the magic spirits. This is where miracles originate."

"As long as the magic spirit wants, the entire virtual world will help it."

"Although I don't know what price the magic spirit will pay, countless records show that as long as you break the connection with the magic spirit in the virtual world, the magic spirit will disappear instantly. So far, no magician has been able to catch it back."

Another road was blocked. Ash sighed and was about to put on his clothes again, but Sonia called him, "Don't leave in a hurry. There are still things to share here."

Sonia walked towards the small tree where the fox dragon had just been perched and picked two green fruits from it. Ash took one and had no idea what kind it was.

"Virtual fruit, soul fruit, mysterious fruit, this thing has many names and different shapes, but the effect is the same - eating it can replenish the lost soul energy and extend the exploration time of this virtual journey."

“It tastes terrible, by the way.”

Ash retched while looking at Sword Lady. It took him several seconds to get over the nausea. It was nothing more than eating shit. "Can you focus on the front next time?"

"Isn't this good? I don't want to eat a second one." Sonia's face was distorted with disgust.

... ...

...

Perhaps an experience orb had exhausted their luck. For the following time, Ash did not find an ideal area that was "worth visiting" or "welcome". It was either "seeking death" or "wasting effort". He even got prompted to "run".

After leaving the virtual world and returning to the prison, Ash recharged "Fox Fire" and "Light". These two magic spirits were both worth 10 points. Together with the "Continuous Shot" magic spirit he had sold before, Ash now had 30 points.

It just so happens that a set of source crystals in the game is worth 30 points.

Although Ash can continue to save money to buy a bigger one, after hearing about Professor Schilling's killing order from Valcas, Ash feels more and more oppressed - prison is not his shield, danger is everywhere!

If you don’t spend money when you should, you will never have the chance to spend it in the future!

He used up 30 points to buy a set of source crystals. There were 6 source crystals in a set. Because of the double reward for the first charge, Ash actually got 12 source crystals.

Adding the 3 source crystals obtained from signing in these few days, Ash now has a total of 15 source crystals, enough for 5 card draws!

After three days of drawing cards again, Ash went to wash his hands first, then put his hands together and prayed to the gods who could recite their names, even the origin of the miracles of this world: "Xujing, Xujing, I am using your magic spirit to draw cards. In other words, I am actually drawing cards for you. What's yours is mine, and what's mine will be yours sooner or later. If you let me be well, it will be the same as making yourself well. I won't say too much about other things, as long as you understand..."

Draw a card!

If the requirement of ten consecutive draws is not met, then just draw one by one continuously. The believing heart is the miracle of magic!

White light, "Energy Potion"!

White light, "Experience potion"!

Very good, Fiora won’t have any time off next week.

Purple light, "Virtual Realm Telescope"!

Orange light, "Silver Coin of the Deathly Mad Sword Princess"!

Purple light, "Awakening Battle Record"!

Three new items were released in succession afterwards. Is this the charm of single draw

[Virtual Realm Telescope]: When exploring the virtual realm, your observation distance is increased by 1.

The shorter the introduction, the stronger the effect. Ash immediately understood what a good thing this was. His current virtual observation distance was only 1, which meant he could only see the surrounding 8 grids. With this telescope, his observation area increased from 3×3 to 5×5, and the number of observable grids increased from 8 to 24!

One of the main reasons why Ash couldn't find a suitable area to explore was that he was short-sighted in the virtual world and could only take the safest route. With this item, their virtual world exploration efficiency increased by at least 50%.

"Silver Coin of Death Sword Princess": One of the three silver coins that Death Sword Princess has been collecting, but lost after many years. If someone takes this silver coin to see Death Sword Princess, he will get a reward or die. Use it to expand the bond function.

Although the introduction was not clear, Ash saw the trick at a glance: Isn't this the full treasure and full potential mechanism in mobile game card drawing? When you draw the same character, you can unlock more poses of the character to tempt players to increase their krypton gold.

By using the "Silver Coin of the Death Sword Princess", the information of 'Death Sword Princess' changed.

"Death Mad Sword Princess"

「Human, Female, 20 years old」

"Bond level: 1 (35% experience sharing)"

"Bond Resonance: Greedy: When acting at the same time, there is a chance to obtain better loot."

「Occupation: One-winged swordsman」

"Professional feature: Reduce energy consumption by 10% when using sword skills"

"Holding item: wooden sword for training"

"Controlling the spirits: Wave Sword, Moon Silk, Torrent"

"Swordsmanship Faction: Silver Level"

"Light Faction: Silver Level"

"Water Magic School: Not Yet Started"

"Virtual Realm Exploration: 0.002%"

In addition to the increase in the experience sharing ratio from 30% to 35%, the biggest change is naturally the addition of "Bond Resonance·Greedy".

Obviously this is a bad quality of Fiora and has nothing to do with Ash, but the effect is good. From now on, the final blow of killing monsters will be left to Fiora.

Ash looked at the last thing he pulled out, the "Awakening Battle Card".

When it was pulled out, it emitted purple light, which showed that it was not some common product, but a good thing of the same grade as the "Virtual Realm Telescope".

"Awakening Battle Record": Arrange a high-difficulty battle for the operator, so that the operator enters the awakening state. In the awakening state, the operator gains 250% combat experience and is more likely to create miracles, summon spirits, and break through realms (danger: medium).

“I barely have any personal time in the day anymore…”

"I am so tired… "

“Can we reduce the training time to one hour…”

Sword Lady's complaints seemed to echo in his ears, and Ash's face showed a struggle. At this moment, the prison's morning song sounded on time:

"If you've been hurt enough, use your hands to cut it open quickly, yesterday's curse. When night falls and day comes, only scars remain..."

The song seemed to make Ash firm in his determination, and he resolutely used the "Awakening Battle Card"!

Choose the target, the Death Sword Princess!

"Jian Ji, I'm doing this for your own good!"
