Infinite: Starting from Infiltrating Other Spaces

"Young man, have you ever heard of the Lost Kingdom?"

Awoo landed on Li Xia's shoulder, listening with great interest. Clearly, the old man was about to start telling a story, which was its favorite thing to do.

Instead, Black Charcoal's eyes lit up, and it raised its claws:

"Meow!"

"Oh? You know?" The old man looked at the charcoal with a smile, and his attitude towards the Palico became much more amiable.

Black Charcoal nodded and kept meowing.

"That's right...that's right...Shuraide, a nation destroyed a thousand years ago, or even longer, the legend of the Black Dragon—the beginning of calamity."

The old man spoke incoherently, as if in a dream, but Li Xia could still understand him with a bit of understanding, thanks to the game.

It is said that there was once an extremely powerful nation called Shured, whose technology far surpassed the imagination of modern humans.

They are so powerful that their footprints are all over the planet, and like humans on Earth, they isolate themselves from the ecosystem.

They indiscriminately hunt and kill all living beings except humans.

This ultimately led to an epic war between humans and dragons, in which the dragons won a pyrrhic victory.

One of the taboos, the black dragon, arrived alone in the capital of the Kingdom of Shured, and in less than a day, the once-powerful capital was completely destroyed.

The remaining humans took a long time to recover, but this instilled in them a sense of awe for nature.

Integrate yourself into the ecosystem, become a part of it, and believe in balance.

Oppose senseless and indiscriminate killing.

The apostles were captured precisely because of their indiscriminate killing...

Li Xia looked at the old man, sending a question mark with his eyes. What exactly did the old man want to say?

Where is my crafting list for unlocked equipment?

The old man glanced at him, and his mouth also pursed.

“Look, you’re in a hurry again—young man, I know what you’re thinking, but if you don’t understand history, you’ll lack a sense of awe for what you’re about to receive!”

He touched some charcoal:

"The kitten is great... Okay, then I'll make it short—"

The old man paused for a moment, then said in a low voice, "What you are about to see is the result of the Guild United Kingdom's excavation of ancient ruins."

We restored only a tiny fraction of it, yet it brought tremendous progress to the guild.

Many things even made us feel uneasy. After a long period of deliberation, the guild finally decided to classify these materials and equipment as top secret.

Hunters are prohibited from knowing or possessing related items until they have proven themselves to be qualified.

Furthermore, the quantity of ancient equipment is strictly limited, so... choose carefully!

He pulled out something that looked like a list:

"Here you go, take your time looking at them, young people these days..."

Li Xia took the list, and without him saying anything, Heitan and Aowu immediately came over. What list? Even dogs don't look at it!

If you want to see it, look for the hints from the Hall of Light!

[Executioner, you have had some restrictions lifted and are now permitted to learn about and acquire some equipment made using ancient technology.]

[Note: Due to guild restrictions, there is a limit to the amount of ancient equipment each person can possess.]

The list refreshed, and Li Xia immediately noticed the pale orange light at the top.

The Dragon King's One Eye

[Grade: Light Orange (Tier 2)]

[Origin: Monster Hunter - Ryukoin Dark Investigation Team]

【Category: Special Category / Eye Mask】

【Durability: 100/100】

[Equipment Requirements: 15 points in Physique, 15 points in Spirit, 15 points in Intelligence, and passing the Willpower rank check]

Weakness Detection: Eyes covered by an eyepatch will gain a special field of vision, and the weaknesses of biological enemies will be highlighted on their bodies.

Weakness refresh time: 5 seconds (Tier 1-3). The refresh time increases by 300% with each tier increase.

Weakness Strike: When attacking a detected weak point, damage is increased by at least 30%, up to a maximum of 100%.

True Feedback: When attacking a captured weakness, the Dragon King's One Eye will absorb 50% of the damage dealt and return it to the wearer.

Cooldown: 5 seconds

Ferocious Dragon: The savage aura of the Nergigante resides in its single eye, constantly affecting the wearer and reducing their resistance to mental abilities by 20%.

The ferocious dragon will perform a willpower test every 20-24 hours. If the test is passed, the dragon will be temporarily immune to mental resistance.

Excitement and Trembling: Physical strength and power increased by 10%, mental strength and intelligence decreased by 5%.

Special equipment: does not occupy an equipment slot.

[Evaluation: This special piece of equipment, which uses the genes of the Nergigante dragon scales to restore the eye, once drove many users to madness. The eye, which resembles that of the Nergigante dragon, also instilled fear in many enemies.]

Li Xia was momentarily stunned; the light orange equipment... was somewhat beyond his expectations.

There are a total of six attributes, the first three of which can be considered as one major attribute.

His understanding is that it increases critical hit damage and can restore health, which is extremely useful for ranged attacks.

Especially weapons like bows and arrows or sniper rifles.

It has decent single-shot damage and a moderate rate of fire.

One of the remaining attributes is a debuff, which is not surprising, as Smaug's Scales also has a debuff that reduces maximum health.

Or rather, it shouldn't be called a debuff, but rather the cost of using equipment.

Just as Smaug's scales rely on that 10% of life force to form armor, the Dragon King's one eye, relying on the Nergigante's genes, will inevitably be affected by the Nergigante.

However, the attributes of excitement and not taking up equipment slots are extremely powerful.

"Your Highness—this equipment!"

Awoo's time as an undercover agent in the Hall of Light was not in vain; it quickly understood the hall's current form of operation.

It's obvious how powerful this equipment is; in fact, classifying it as a second-tier item is almost beneath it!

Placing a third-order unit is not a problem at all!

Apart from Heitan, who didn't understand the value of the equipment, Li Xia and Aowu were completely captivated by the light orange color of the equipment.

He even felt a surge of urge to find Nergigante and fight her again.

No wonder the guy selling the guide used three super eye-catching notes to earnestly advise everyone not to get carried away.

Honestly, who wouldn't be confused after seeing this?

"No rush, let's look at the bottom first!"

Li Xia forcibly suppressed the urge to immediately go out and cause trouble for Nergigante.

I continued reading.

Then I couldn't take my eyes off it.

1. Monthly pass 2. Recommendation vote

I've seen the updates mentioned by some readers, and I'm truly sorry.

Since getting married and having kids, my life has become one where everyone else is on vacation while I'm working, and I'm busier during holidays...

My brother-in-law moved today, and I spent the whole day helping out. I'm completely exhausted.

I bow, I'm sorry!

Chapter 87: The Qilin Set!

Below the list, neat purple lights were flashing.

These varying shades of purple light seemed to possess a captivating power.

It firmly attracts attention.

Many pieces of equipment are grayed out, simply indicating that there are not enough materials.

I randomly clicked on the preview of a purple-grade top-tier piece of equipment.

[Turning Outfit - Complete]

[Grade: Purple - Ultimate (Tier 2)]

[Origin: Monster Hunter - Ryukoin Dark Investigation Team]

【Category: Special Category/Outerwear】

【Durability: 80/80】

[Equipment Requirements: Physical Strength ≥ 2]

1. Turn around: By using a special reaction layer, damage can be avoided when attacked by using the self-destruct reaction layer.

(Environmental damage cannot be avoided)

Maximum number of turns: 6

Turn count reset: The active reaction layer requires 24 hours to regenerate.

2. Absorption: The damage avoided will be converted into a certain amount of potential energy and absorbed by the clothing. At the end, the potential energy can be released in the form of a wave.

Potential energy damage: Physical damage equal to 0.1 times the absorbed kinetic energy, up to a maximum of 1000 times the physical strength.

3. Ferocious Devour: Absorbs the blood of carbon-based organisms, accelerating the reaction layer reset time, reducing the time by up to 50%.

4. Special Equipment/Outerwear: Does not occupy an equipment slot.

[Review: A brilliant idea. It preserves the activity of biomaterials, transforming disposable reactive armor into renewable reactive armor. At least until it expires, you will be virtually unharmed.]

Li Xia was alright, after all, he knew about the Turning Outer Garment, but the original Turning Outer Garment was still formidable.

Simply put, the principle of turning around and changing clothes is very similar to 'seeing and cutting'.

They are all products based on the principle of 'reactive armor'.

'Kenkiri' is a reactive armor formed by 'air flow through the channel'.

The transformation outfit utilizes the skin of some kind of monster.

And kinetic energy absorption... What kind of monster's skin possesses both of these properties?

Li Xia was envious of the clothes she saw as she turned around; she was immune to six conventional attacks.

Hmm? A standard attack?

Li Xia pondered for a moment, and with his physical strength and self-healing ability, it seemed that six regular attacks wouldn't be a problem.

"Your Highness, look at this equipment!"

Unlike Li Xia, Aowu has a bias towards the famous turn-around outfit in the game.

So it looked faster and found a piece of equipment that it felt was very suitable for Li Xia.

Li Xia looked in the direction Aowu pointed, pondered for a moment, and then nodded:

"can!"

...................

"Huff—cough—have you made your choice?"

The old man rubbed his eyes, waking up from his sleep, and asked while yawning.

"Yes, I've already made my choice."

Li Xia handed the list back, and the old man glanced at it briefly before pausing in surprise:
