Online game: Thunder Tyrant, I have infinite critical hits!

The butler looked at Jiang Yan with a triumphant air, recalling the day when Jiang Yan had grabbed his little black hand and extorted three pieces of gold equipment from him. He was then subjected to continuous blackmail and threats, forced to work like a slave. Now, he was finally able to settle his score and avenge his grievances!

happy!

The butler, beaming with pride, looked down at Jiang Yan: "Jiang Taigong, it's time to return my 'pledge of allegiance'! Oh, and those three pieces of golden equipment I gave you!! Give them all back!!"

With three pieces of spirit-level equipment, the butler naturally didn't care about gold-level equipment; what he wanted was dignity!

"Want it? No problem, but you have to settle the task for me first, how about it?" Jiang Yan said with a smile.

"Hmph! They really won't turn back until they hit a brick wall!" The butler waved his hand with a sneer.

The next instant, a pleasant system notification rang in Jiang Yan's ears:

[Ding~ Congratulations on completing the Abyss Exploration quest! You have obtained 3 Spirit-grade equipment items!]

Jiang Yan hurriedly opened his backpack and saw that there were already three pieces of equipment emitting a hazy spiritual light inside!

The butler was completely dumbfounded.

"Have you finished your task?"

"How could this happen..."

"No! No! My spirit-level equipment!!"

"Jiang Taigong, give me back my equipment!!"

The butler completely lost his guard and charged at Jiang Yan with a roar!

Jiang Yan didn't stand on ceremony with him, kicking him to the ground: "Butler, butler, it seems you still can't tell the difference between the big and small princes!"

"Jiang Taigong!!" The steward glared at Jiang Yan with a ferocious expression, his eyes filled with resentment, frustration, unwillingness, confusion, and disbelief: "You, how did you do that? Why wasn't your soul corrupted?!"

"This is all thanks to your book," Jiang Yan said with a smile.

"My...book?" The butler was taken aback, and it took him a while to remember that he had indeed written a book more than ten years ago.

His mind raced, and he quickly realized something: "An elf? You, you went to Mermaid Town?!"

"That's right. Thanks to the clues you left behind, I was able to find the elf. You know, elves always have a way to heal the human spirit," Jiang Yan said with a smile.

"No! No! Why did this happen! I, I..." The butler was even more distressed when he learned the truth!

"If I hadn't written that book, then now..." The butler felt even more remorseful as he thought about it!

"Butler, thank you. Without you, I wouldn't have obtained these three spirit-grade equipment pieces." Jiang Yan opened his backpack again to check the attributes of the three spirit-grade equipment pieces.

[Abyss - Demon King Helmet] (Spirit-grade): Magic Attack +286, Physical Defense +135, Magic Defense +135, Magic Damage +20%, Spirit +20%. Requirement: Mage! (One of the Abyss Demon King set pieces; collecting three pieces grants an additional +108 Magic Attack, six pieces grant an additional +216 Magic Attack, and nine pieces grant an additional +324 Magic Attack!)

【Abyss - Demon King's Chain】(Spirit-tier): Magic Attack +298, Magic Penetration +18%, Magic Damage +22%, Spirit +20%, Agility +15. Requirement: Mage! (One of the Abyss Demon King Sets)

【Abyss - Demon King Cloak】(Spirit-level): Magic Attack +285, Physical Defense +78, Magic Defense +78, Magic Damage +15%, HP +30%, MP +30%, Requirement: Mage! (One of the Abyss Demon King Sets)

"Wow, it's even a set!!"

After reviewing the equipment's stats, Jiang Yan was both surprised and delighted, and couldn't help but praise the butler again: "Butler, thanks to you! If it weren't for you, where would I have found such a top-tier spirit-grade set? Thank you so much!"

"You! I... no!!" The butler roared in grief and anger, and then spat out a mouthful of scarlet blood!

"Young friend Jiang, you're bullying my steward again." Just then, City Lord Lin Wudi walked over with a smile.

"Lord! Lord, you must do justice for me!!" The steward saw Lin Wudi and hurriedly crawled over, kneeling on the ground and wailing.

"Oh, did young friend Jiang bully you?" Lin Wudi asked with a smile.

"I...he..." The butler was about to accuse when he suddenly saw Jiang Yan take out a gray scroll out of the corner of his eye.

That scroll was the "pledge of allegiance" that recorded his crimes!

The butler immediately fell silent: "No, no."

"That's good, you can go now." Lin Wudi waved his hand.

"Yes." The butler lowered his head and left, tears welling up in his eyes.

After he left, Lin Wudi smiled and said to Jiang Yan, "Young friend Jiang, congratulations! I'm quite envious of your three spirit-level equipment."

"Lord of the City is joking. How could you, the Lord of the main city, lack spirit-level equipment?" Jiang Yan didn't believe it.

"What do you think Spirit-level equipment is, like cabbages in the field?" Lin Wudi rolled his eyes in annoyance, then told Jiang Yan that above Spirit-level equipment are divine artifacts and magical weapons. Among the 108 city lords of the main cities in the Huaguo region, no more than a handful possess divine artifacts. Therefore, Spirit-level equipment is currently the most powerful mainstream equipment!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan quickly opened his equipment inventory.

He currently wears five pieces of Spirit-level equipment: [Wrath of the Thunder God], [Robe of Fars], [Dragon Blood Leggings], [Heart of the Dragon Sparrow], and [Heart of the Lich]. Adding the three Abyss-Demon King set pieces he just acquired, he has a total of eight pieces of Spirit-level equipment!

If Lin Wudi wasn't lying to him, then his current equipment is probably no worse than that of the city lord of the main city!

If he can raise his level further, it might not be long before he can compete with these city lords!

Lin Wudi seemed to sense what Jiang Yan was thinking and couldn't help but pour cold water on it, saying, "Although most city lords only have spirit-level equipment, their equipment can already be called semi-divine artifacts."

"A semi-divine artifact?" Jiang Yan asked, puzzled. He quickly inquired about the difference between a semi-divine artifact and a spirit-level equipment.

"The so-called semi-divine artifact is made by incorporating fragments of divine artifacts or demonic weapons into spirit-level equipment, thereby greatly enhancing the equipment's attributes," Lin Wudi said. "As far as I know, a city lord collected eight fragments of divine artifacts and incorporated them into his spirit-level weapon, and its attributes are already comparable to those of a divine artifact!"

Eight fragments of a divine artifact?

That's way too extravagant!

Jiang Yan looked on with envy. He knew that the Thor's Hammer in his backpack only had five fragments. If he could collect them all, he could directly reforge the artifact. Why would he want to integrate it into a spirit-level equipment?

and many more!

Jiang Yan's heart suddenly trembled, and he hurriedly asked, "City Lord, if I collect all four fragments of the divine artifact, but the last fragment is integrated into a spirit-level equipment by someone else, then I..."

"Then we can only seize the opponent's equipment, melt it down, and extract the artifact fragment. Of course, the success rate is hard to say. If we fail..." Lin Wudi sighed, "Then the remaining four artifact fragments will be useless and can only be used to integrate into spirit-level equipment."

Jiang Yan's heart sank, thinking to himself: Could my [Thor's Hammer] fragments have already been integrated into a spirit-level equipment?

"What are you thinking about?" Lin Wudi asked with a smile.

"It's nothing." Jiang Yan suppressed his inner turmoil and smiled, "City Lord, I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave."
