Chapter 238: The Unreachable Sword and the Female General Revealing Her True Colors

When the bandit walked into the base of the [Oberg Assassination Society], he hesitated for a moment at the door, as if considering what kind of wine to order.

However, when the robber saw Fang Yi had arrived and was sitting in the corner, his eyes lit up.

He didn't even bother to order any drinks and just sat down opposite Fang Yi.

He casually took out a big axe from the space on his body and communicated with Fang Yi in brief words.

"This? Okay?"

Fang Yi only took a quick glance, and the knowledge gained from [Truth Refining and Completion] told him that this [Imperial Weapon] was beyond saving, and it was not even worth removing the [module] and [replacing] it with other equipment, or using it as material to [repair] other equipment.

He replied to the robber, "Not very good."

The robber just nodded to show that he understood, and at the same time said in obscure language that there would be a good reward in the next stage of his special task of "Scavenger", which might be used to pay for Fang Yi.

Fang Yi nodded slightly to show that he understood, and then he stopped answering and prepared to start the work of [replacing] the long sword.

The robber didn't hesitate and turned around, ordered two drinks at the counter and left Fang Yi's table.

Obviously he was waiting for Fang Yi to finish his work so that they could return to Arya's house, which served as their base, or Fang Yi's residence.

The two people became familiar with each other and ended their communication in this way.

After finishing his communication with the robber, Fang Yi couldn't help but complain in his heart when he saw the huge difference between the two [Imperial Weapons] before he took action against the strange long sword. The difference was almost like heaven and earth.

"The difference in design quality between the [Imperial Guards] in the original work is so humorous. The upper and lower limits vary drastically, and there are a lot of [Imperial Guards] that are just there to make up the numbers.

"No wonder the space is equipped with [Module·Alchemy]. There's a high probability that [Alchemists] will enter the scene to transform or recast [Imperial Equipment] through [Missions].

"Otherwise, the rewards available to reincarnators in this world would be too few, and the quest options would be too limited."

After complaining, Fang Yi took out five gold bars and offered them to [Truth Refining and Completion], then began to check the [module] of this strange long sword.

He needs to replace the most valuable modules with California Clearing.

It can also absorb the holder's blood as a supplement.

With the disappearance of the five gold bars, Fang Yi quickly found the two high-value [modules] of this strange long sword.

However, after scanning [California Clear Light], in order to retain the [evolvable] function of this long sword, he could only choose to [replace] one module.

Without any hesitation, Fang Yi paid 8000 points and installed the more suitable [Blood Absorption Application Module A] on the [California Clear Light].

At the same time, a lot of materials decomposed from the strange long sword were consumed, and the quality of [California Clear Light] was successfully pushed to [Epic] through [Repair].

Following the prompt sound of "The damage of [California Kiyomitsu] has changed from [47-71] to [69-97]", the attributes of this long sword with a hint of blood appeared in front of Fang Yi again.

【California Clear Light】

Category: Knife
Quality: Tier 2 Epic (Evolving)
Damage: 69-97 (equipment parameters for reference only)
Durability: 800/800
Blood value: 0/1200
Origin: 'Scavenger' talent unlocks the probability of output in the chain task
Usage conditions: Strength 20, Constitution 20, Spirit 15, Mastery of Swordsmanship lv2
Equipment effect:

[Sharp], [Invade], [Solid], [Man-Slaying] (No changes)

[Recovery]: After killing a flesh and blood creature, the durability of the knife will be restored slightly, and the health value in the knife will be restored after absorbing blood.

[Build a moat with blood]:
By consuming the stored blood, a blood wall of extremely high strength and variable size can be created within a 1.5-meter radius of the user, depending on the amount of blood consumed.

The damage that the blood wall can resist is affected by the [Spirit] attribute, the amount of blood used, and the quality of the blood.

The user can choose to actively detonate the blood wall, creating a one-way explosion.

The explosion damage is affected by the amount of blood used to create the blood wall and the [Intelligence] and [Spirit] attributes.

The blood used to make the blood wall can be mixed with different liquids, but this will reduce the quality of the blood, affect the blood wall's defensive strength and the difficulty of explosion control.

Blood Blade Dance

Consuming stored blood releases several streams of sword energy. The base power and quantity of the sword energy are affected by the amount of blood consumed.

The user can choose two ways to increase the power and quantity of the sword energy:

1. Sword skills, talents, and traits.

2. Use the [Spirit] attribute to bless.

The additional increase in sword energy takes the maximum value of the two bonuses.

Summary:
According to actual records, the sword of the talented swordsman Okita Souji at the end of the shogunate had the word "誠" faintly engraved on the hilt.

It possesses an unstoppable edge, and when drawn, a lingering aura of menace lingers. It is said that after slaying numerous worthy enemies, it will evolve into a legendary saber.

Later, as the swordsman Fang Yi's sword, he killed many powerful enemies and witnessed his [great deeds].

Now, through high-end alchemy techniques, some defects of the blade have been compensated, making it possible to achieve higher quality.

Evaluation:

"Even jealousy can't catch up, even longing can't reach" is the best description of this knife and its user.

Although his points had just turned into 38000, 10000 points disappeared directly after [replacing] [Prometheus] and [California Clear], and eight of the gold bars in his hand also disappeared.

However, looking at the leaps in attributes of [Prometheus] and [California Clear Light], Fang Yi felt that the only drawback of this skill was that it burned gold, points, materials, and equipment.

And strictly speaking, this is not a shortcoming of the skill, but a shortcoming of Fang Yi himself.

At the same time, after [repairing] and [replacing] these two pieces of equipment, two prompts appeared in the system.

"Due to using [Truth Refinement: Completeness] to craft two pieces of excellent equipment, the skill level has been raised to level 2."

"Affected by the talent [Diligent Learning], the 'truth' related to this skill is incubating."

Obviously, the better the equipment produced by this skill, the faster the skill will be improved, and it also benefits from the bonus of the talent [Diligent Study and Improvement].

As for the remaining [Blood Absorption Application Module B], Fang Yi plans to find an opportunity to [replace] the soft knife named [Rou Zhi Rou] of Ganlu Temple Mi Li.

While making equipment to gain skill experience, the accompanying skills can continue to stack the female swordsman's damage reduction attributes.

According to Shinobu Kocho, the damage reduction provided by Kanroji Mitsuru's talent [Rock Solid] and the skill [Indestructible Body of the Divine Elephant] are added independently, and these two items are calculated first, followed by skills and traits.

Obviously, this [module] is more cost-effective to continue to stack damage immunity for this female swordsman.

After finishing the [replacement] work and sorting out the harvest, Fang Yi, who was a little tired, decided to leave the unboxing reward session until the evening.

Anyway, I'm afraid these two treasure chests won't contain any "new stuff".

He turned around and exchanged glances with the robber, and the two of them headed towards the residence of [Imperial Youth Fang Yi] with umbrellas in hand.

*
A few minutes later, Fang Yi appeared at the corner and saw a blue ball at the door of the house, or rather, a female general squatting on the ground looking a little embarrassed.

It was Esdeath who had been waiting for Fang Yi at the door for several hours.
-
Because Fang Yi dismissed the original maids and guards in the house, this house that he used as his residence became very deserted.

Therefore, in the few hours after Fang Yi left here, Esdeath, who had no one to entertain her, stood outside Fang Yi's house and suffered from the cold wind and rain.

Her physical fitness far surpasses that of an average person, and she can stand for hours without feeling the slightest bit of fatigue. Coming from a hunting clan, she possesses extraordinary patience for hunting.

However, neither Feng Yu nor Fang Yi gave the female general any face.

As time went by, the rain became heavier after several twists and turns, and Fang Yi, who was obsessed with researching new skills, still did not come back.

Several hours of rain had soaked her entire body. Her military uniform and underwear became like a weight that clung to her body, bringing a chill that penetrated deep into her bones.

The female general, who had persisted for several hours, looked at the street lights that had already turned on, feeling helpless.

[Sure enough, am I still too naive and impulsive? ]

[Isn't it a bit foolish to come here on a whim and stubbornly get caught in the rain for several hours?]

Feeling a little regretful and hungry and cold, she no longer chose to stand, but squatted down to relieve the pain in her body.

At the same time, negative emotions surged in her heart.

But the female general was reluctant to give up after waiting for several hours. The "sunk cost" she invested was too great. If she left, the rain for several hours would be in vain.

Just as the female general was hesitating, she sensed footsteps coming from the corner she had been staring at for hours, and then disappeared.

[Sure enough, another 'wrong' perception. Today's decision was truly foolish.]

The female general shrank back and decided that it was time to leave.

When hunting prey, giving up is always an option.

And a few seconds later, an umbrella was held over the female general's head.

The female general raised her head and saw a man's face, flickering under the dim street light, blending unparalleled charm with a hint of concern.

"I think you need a little help, pretty lady."

Fang Yi, who was using [Confused Mind], said this.

After taking a look at the female general's chest, he had already determined her "background color".

He knew the other party's background and identity, and also determined the other party's position in his plan for this mission.
