Chapter 114: The Jewel Sword and the Token of Divine-Made Armament

Page 1/3

Although the comrades couldn’t understand a word Zhao Tianhe was saying, they still followed his command and counterattacked toward the spots where the two summoning talismans had fallen. Meanwhile, Zhao Tianhe activated the last three holy crystal stones in his hand. Brilliant, colorful light nearly blinded the comrades’ dog-like eyes and frightened the surrounding wind demons, causing them to retreat repeatedly. Yet, a massive golden multi-faceted crystal materialized in Zhao Tianhe’s hand.

Wise Sacred Flame

Usable on heroic spirits; upon use, the heroic spirit gains ten thousand profession experience points.

An extremely powerful item—this single crystal equated to the experience gained from running dungeons for two to three days by Zhao Tianhe, and from the heroic spirit’s perspective, it was equivalent to five or six days of experience.

“Ah, Artoria’s Archer King form can level up immediately,” Zhao Tianhe said with a bitter smile as he absorbed the crystal into his body.

Given the current situation, summoning Artoria was out of the question. Even if he could summon her, what then?

“Is this item useless?” Li Mei asked.

“No, we still have to see how the other two are doing,” Zhao Tianhe shook his head.

“Bad news! An elite monster grabbed one of the talismans!” a heavily armored warrior shouted.

“Charge!” Zhao Tianhe yelled to his comrades. “Block all monsters along the way!”

Linked by life-bond, the brave warriors charged recklessly and blocked all the monsters with sheer force.

Zhao Tianhe launched dozens of curses in succession, dragging the elite monster that had taken the talisman to a halt.

Li Mei exhausted her last bit of mana to cast a protective barrier around Zhao Tianhe and herself. The smaller the barrier, the stronger the defense; right now, it was more important to shield the two without life links.

Two warriors wielding enchanted greatswords charged forward, their blades shimmering with elemental light as black mist unfurled from the edges. The two talismans dropped again.

One warrior tossed the talisman back to Zhao Tianhe inside the barrier, then turned back to continue fighting.

Without hesitation, Zhao Tianhe activated a card draw!

Golden light sparkled as a card appeared, depicting a short sword.

The short sword’s blade was very unusual, shaped like a multifaceted gem, radiating dazzling brilliance from within.

Gemstone Sword Zelrich, Master-Exclusive Craft

When this craft is equipped, other crafts cannot be used, but the master may freely switch crafts.

Active Skill: Summon the Gemstone Sword Zelrich, lasting one hour, with a twenty-four-hour cooldown.

Gemstone Sword Zelrich

Equipment Effect: Second Spell – summon endless mana from a parallel world to replenish the user’s own. Each activation restores up to 500 mana points, with no cooldown or interval between restorations.

“Nice! With this, I can unleash my invincibility,” Zhao Tianhe sighed inwardly as he summoned the Gemstone Sword Zelrich. “Honestly, I feel bad for this sword—my own mana regeneration isn’t even close to what it provides.”

Li Mei, curious about the strangely shaped short sword in Zhao Tianhe’s hand, asked, “How is it? Is this some kind of divine artifact? Can it turn the tide of battle?”

Zhao Tianhe shook his head and continued drawing cards.

The monsters around, seeing that the strange light aura from Zhao Tianhe’s card draw posed no real threat, stopped paying attention to it and began their furious assault.

Holding the Gemstone Sword, Zhao Tianhe casually cast first-level light spells of Purification while drawing cards.

With infinite mana now, even heavy, unfamiliar light spells were no problem. Purification was the best damage spell against undead among first-level spells. Coupled with the occasional triggering of super magic premonitions, Zhao Tianhe surprisingly managed to repel the horde of monsters!

Li Mei found it strange to see Zhao Tianhe, usually so shallow, suddenly become unfathomable.

Even with the Book of Boiling, casting dozens of low-level spells at once usually drained mana beyond supply, but now with the Gemstone Sword, things were completely different.

Honestly, the Gemstone Sword would work better for Li Mei, since she could directly cast high-level magic. If she had it, she could easily push back an entire wind demon army from one direction.

Unfortunately, the Gemstone Sword was master-exclusive and couldn’t be given to others.

“If I survive this, I’ll probably be able to handle B-rank bosses alone in the future. With Artoria and Aile’s cover, my infinite casting against B-rank bosses would be unstoppable,” Zhao Tianhe thought to himself as another card landed in his hand.

Divine Armament Release Certificate, One-Time Use Craft

A ticket forged with star core power to supply massive energy, enabling a piece of divine armament to unleash its full power.

Usable by both master and heroic spirit.

This card, trembling slightly like the Unlimited Sword Works craft, left Zhao Tianhe somewhat bewildered after reading the description.

Although he could use it, the problem was: what would happen if he did?

According to the description, it should allow Artoria to unleash the Noble Phantasm of Excalibur’s light cannon or enable Aile to release the Thermo Shrine’s Meslamtea. But both were currently unsummonable!

“What if I use it myself?” Zhao Tianhe pondered anxiously, unsure what effect it would have.

Would it be an offensive Noble Phantasm, a single-target destruction, a light cannon, or a satellite particle cannon?

Or perhaps a curse? A buff?

Anything was possible!

“Come to think of it, I do have two things that could be called divine armaments,” Zhao Tianhe mused, glancing at the Gemstone Sword and then recalling the hero system within him.

If the Gemstone Sword, as a manifestation of the second spell, could be unlocked by the Divine Armament Certificate, it might unleash the legendary Moon-Splitting Magic Cannon of the Gemstone Elder, said to be powerful enough to shatter the moon.

But it could also be something else—or it might not even be unlockable.

As for the hero system, he had no idea what might emerge.

Regardless, he had to try!

“Li Mei, I’m going to try it,” Zhao Tianhe said, ceasing his outward spellcasting and instead refreshing various protective spells and buffs on himself. With infinite mana, he swiftly cast Flight.

“No matter the outcome, I won’t be able to help you from here on,” he added.

If it weren’t for Zhao Tianhe using the Gemstone Sword and infinite mana to repel the monsters’ siege just now, Li Mei’s barrier would have long since broken.

“Go,” Li Mei smiled. “If you succeed, we will meet again.”

“I hope so,” Zhao Tianhe said, slowly ascending and flying off into the distance.

Watching Zhao Tianhe’s departing figure, Li Mei’s heart briefly swelled with a tragic feeling, but soon she lowered her head, feeling a burning sensation in her eyes.

Zhao Tianhe wore a mage’s robe on top, but below, he donned his homemade steel war skirt—with nothing underneath…
