Sword Fantasy

Chapter 14

Soon Alice came to me holding a treasure chest, and I looked at her in surprise!
"Where did you pick up this treasure chest?" I asked doubtfully.

But before I could even think about it, the scene suddenly changed, returning to that room. But the treasure chest Alice was holding hadn't disappeared. It looked like it belonged to me! With that, I took the treasure chest from Alice, thought for a moment, and reached out to open it!

Inside the treasure chest lay a palm-sized scale. I picked it up and examined it, but couldn't discern what animal it belonged to. Then, the system interrupted, saying, "This scale is from a dragon! It's extremely rare! Would you like to recycle it?"

Is this a new feature of the system? Why haven't I seen it before? Oh well, forget it, I'll just put it in the system backpack! Then I hurriedly asked the system, "What the hell is this big crystal with an image on it above my head? Why does it feel so strangely familiar?"

"This crystal is a way of presenting memories. These memories belong to people who traveled to this world a long time ago. What's the question?" The system said without any concealment.
Seeing the system say this so bluntly, I'm completely clueless! The question I was about to ask was abruptly blocked! Forget it, let's skip this big crystal and move forward!
"An object has been detected inside the crystal." The system said in an abrupt voice.

My body froze, and I quickly looked toward the giant crystal. There was something inside this massive object. What could it be? I thought for a moment and asked Alice, "Is there any way to destroy this large crystal without damaging the contents?"

"If I use magic, I have to use intermediate magic. Low-level magic can't damage the outer crystal, and intermediate magic might damage the things inside! I don't have any better ideas!" Alice said dejectedly.

That's true. To extract a crystal with something wrapped inside requires not only precise force control but also plenty of patience! But I have both. I think about it: I need both force control and patience! ...

Ah! I figured I could use Inch Force, and it wouldn't harm anything inside! Okay, that's it! Then I looked at the crystal excitedly, then immediately dropped my head in despair! I thought, Inch Force is fine, but I also need somewhere to leverage the force!

Seeing my face changing from excited to worried, Alice came over and asked, "Is there anything difficult? Do you need my help?"

I looked at Alice, then turned to look at Crystal and asked Alice: "Alice, I remember you can use earth magic, right?" "Yes! What's wrong?" Alice asked curiously

"There is something I really need your help with!" I asked sincerely with my hands clasped together.

"As long as it is something within my ability, I will do my best to do it. Please rest assured!" Alice said firmly.

"Can you use earth magic to send me to the vicinity of that crystal? I need a leverage point to break this big crystal without damaging the things inside!" I said a little excitedly.
Alice looked at the distance between the ground and the crystal. "It should be possible. Do we need to create it now?"

I nodded! Completely unaware, I was instantly transported to within a meter of the crystal by a rock-made earth magic! I looked down, my body trembling! Alice, truly Alice, had been transported so high up in an instant! As the saying goes, within every successful work, there's a natural Alice! Ah, bah! Enough digression, let's get back to our story! Standing on this rocky foothold, I concentrated and placed my right hand on the crystal! I braced myself, focusing all my strength and exploding! There was a muffled "bang," but no crackling of the crystal. Seeing this result, I sighed inwardly. My finally thought hadn't worked! A faint, crisp "crack" sounded, like something cracking. I put my ear close to the crystal, and all I could hear was the sound of glass cracking. This time, there was hope! I stood quietly, waiting for the crystal to completely unravel, but to my disappointment, there were only a few shattering sounds! It never came out again! I waited for a while and when I saw no more sound, I used the Inch Force to hit the crystal again! I thought about it carefully and decided to do it a few more times! Otherwise, it would be very likely that the situation just now would occur. So, I hit the Inch Force a few more times, and when I was about to wait and see what was going on, a huge crack appeared on the entire crystal, and there were also many small cracks! In the blink of an eye, the cracks spread all over the crystal. With a "puff" sound, it shattered into countless tiny stars and then disappeared! I moved my sight to the middle and saw something in the middle flashing with golden light! Because the light was too strong and a little dazzling. I covered my sight and waited for the light to disappear before checking again, in case there was a trap to plot against me!
The light dissipated, and a knife was floating in the air, its entire body was light blue!

Looking at the sword floating in the air, I was confused. Why did the sword, which was clearly light blue, emit a golden light?

"Ice Soul Blade discovered. Equipping this blade grants you a weapon-specific skill!" the system said abruptly.
This time, I jumped right over and grabbed the blade with a faint blue glow! It felt so cool in my hand, it went right through my lungs! Curious, I pulled the blade out, and the moment it came out of its sheath, the air around me plummeted in temperature!
This knife is truly a magical weapon, capable of altering its surroundings! It also has an ice-attribute attack, which, incidentally, is a variant attribute! It's incredibly rare!
Let's get back to the topic. I held the knife in my hand and it felt very good. Then I asked the system: "What is the active skill of this weapon?"

The system replied calmly, "The active skill, Frost Prison, creates an extremely cold prison, freezing the enemy instantly!"

This is really possible, it's equivalent to a small control skill! It's a hundred benefits for me, no harm at all! Look at the blade of this knife, it's also cold and intimidating! It's a bit dazzling! I admired my new weapon for a while, then sheathed it. I turned around and said to Alice, "Let's keep going! Maybe we can find something suitable for you up there!"

Alice nodded in understanding and moved deeper with me!
