Everyone's playing as a roguelike, starting with an extra Mythical Relic.

Chu Yang's combined bombardment of the southern half of the Hundred Weapons camp resulted in the deaths of at least three hundred Weapon Spirit Clan members.

There were six elite artifact spirits among them, and Chu Yang opened all the treasure chests they dropped.

In addition to the 1400 gold reward, I also received two skill books, one companion device, two runes, and one relic.

Neither of the two skill books was lightning-based, and their effects were mediocre; Chu Yang had no equipment for them.

The companion device is of green quality and is named "Warm Sunshine Green".

1. Spell Power +20, Spirit +300.

2 Warm Sunshine: Your fire-type skills trigger the ignite effect, and can trigger an additional layer.

Since this companion artifact happened to have a magic power bonus, Chu Yang decided to use it to try out the fusion and upgrade of companion artifacts.

A fusion interface for companion artifacts popped up, and Chu Yang's weapon, the prayer beads, along with two companion artifacts, [Shock Step - Blue] and [Warm Sun - Green], appeared on the screen.

Then the two accompanying artifacts slowly disappeared, turning into two streams of gas, one blue and one green, which enveloped the weapon prayer beads.

Then the first system notification sounded: "The highest grade of the current companion is blue advanced. Only one effect can be retained. Please choose between [Vibration Step] and [Warm Sunshine]."

Chu Yang naturally chose the [Shock Step].

Then came a second system notification: "The main stat types are different. Please select either Attack or Ability Power."

Chu Yang chose Fa Qiang.

The third notification sound appears: "The secondary stat types are different. Please choose between Health and Sanity."

Chu Yang chose to increase his health.

After the three selections were completed, the blue-green gas merged into Chu Yang's weapon prayer beads, generating a new weapon prayer beads.

Chu Yang examined the companion artifact on the prayer beads and found that although the name was still [Zhenbu·Lan], the attributes had changed.

+20 Ability Power, +500 Health

2. [Shock Step]

In this way, the attributes of this companion artifact are even more compatible with Chu Yang's combat system.

Neither of the two runes is usable by Chu Yang, but one is suitable for Hong Niang.

{Compassionate Light Rune - Blue} - Skill Rune, increases the healing effect of skills by 20%.

Chu Yang equipped it to Hong Niang's "Knot of Hearts" skill.

The last blue relic turned out to be a rare find.

[Relic Blue] - Increases the experience points you gain in battle by 20%.

This is a very valuable relic that was acquired early on.

Chu Yang didn't hesitate and equipped the gear immediately.

In addition, after this massacre, Chu Yang and Hong Niang both leveled up by two levels, one reaching Rank 2 Level 3 and the other reaching Rank 2 Level 2.

Chu Yang had two extra attribute choices. Once he chose +10 magic power, but the other time there was no option to increase magic power, so he had to choose +200 health.

With the addition of the 20 spell power from the companion item [Shock Step Blue], Chu Yang's spell power suddenly reached 122.

Chu Yang needs to choose between the two upgrade rewards for the matchmaker.

She was lucky; she received +10 spell power both times.

Because the matchmaker's "Wedding Dress" skill can amplify Chu Yang's attributes, in order to improve Chu Yang's output ability, Chu Yang naturally prioritizes choosing magic power attributes for the matchmaker.

With the Matchmaker upgraded to level 2, her spell power reached 116.

While sorting through the spoils of the battle, Chu Yang arrived at the central command tent of the Hundred Weapons Camp.

As soon as the spy entered the tent, he began searching through the military's classified documents.

As a secret agent, he was naturally able to understand the script of the Spirit Race.

Chu Yang, however, was drawn to an inconspicuous map on the table.

Chu Yang casually picked up the map and examined it.

This is a very simple map, but it is barely discernible that it depicts the environment around the Hundred Weapons Camp.

On the map, a location not far from the Hundred Weapons Camp is circled in red.

Just then, several footsteps were heard outside the central command tent.

Chu Yang looked up and saw that it was another five people who had come to push open the door.

Half an hour ago, these five people who pushed open the door were discovered by the spirit clan members of the northern half of the Hundred Weapons Camp.

Fortunately, due to Chu Yang's influence, the northern half of the camp did not have many enemies.

The five of them worked together to drive back the group of artifact spirits.

Then, they began searching the entire camp for the contact person for the mission.

They first went to the southern camp, only to find the spirit clan members lying dead everywhere, struck by lightning.

Finally, they followed the corpses along the way and found this large tent.

Seeing the five people enter the main tent, Chu Yang calmly put away the small map.

"You've come at the right time. This person is the spy. After you get the intelligence, you can complete the mission first."

This is a team mission; the mission is considered complete once someone delivers the intelligence to the target location.

As Chu Yang spoke, he prepared to leave to find the location marked on the map.

One of the people pushing open the door asked in confusion, "Then what are you going to do?"

Chu Yang didn't even turn his head, casually saying, "It's still early, I'll go see the scenery of this world..."

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

A dozen minutes later, Chu Yang found the location marked on the minimap.

It was a very secluded cave, the entrance of which was deliberately blocked with huge rocks.

After Chu Yang used his lightning-based skill to blast open the boulder, he received a system notification.

"Congratulations, you have discovered the hidden map - Corpse Tomb Cavern."

"May I enter?"

Chu Yang naturally wanted to go in, but he also temporarily made a pair of [Thousand Mile Pouches] and hid one of them under a big tree.

Then, Chu Yang jumped into the [Corpse Tomb Cave].

The Spirit Race is not born through reproduction.

There are three most common methods for creating artifact spirits: blood sacrifice, mining, and corpse piling.

Blood sacrifice refers to the practice of using intelligent races to sacrifice weapons, thereby giving the weapons sentience and creating weapon spirits.

This method produces spirits the fastest, but it requires killing a large number of intelligent races.

The mineral nurturing method refers to the use of mineral gas in metal veins to nurture weapons, which can also give rise to weapon spirits.

This method is the simplest, but it also takes a relatively long time to create a spirit.

The last method, piling up corpses, refers to using a special formation to gather the souls of deceased weapon spirits to nurture the weapon.

Those born using this method are naturally extremely murderous and are usually taken to the Spirit Clan's army immediately after birth.

The hidden map that Chu Yang opened at this moment was a place where the corpse-piling method was used to spawn the spirit race!

The nearby Hundred Weapons Camp opens its cave entrance every few months to welcome the birth of new weapon spirits, and after nurturing them, sends them to the front lines of the battlefield.
