Chapter 176 Chapter 175-Dark Night Set, The Divine Cannot Be Looked Directly At (2nd update, Cheer me with Power Stones!)

John slightly raised his eyebrows, understanding why Snowla was so excited.

The Bone Serpent had actually dropped a legendary piece of equipment.

Moreover, it was a piece of jewelry, which was quite rare.

But this Holy Light Anthem had no relation to the Bone Serpent.

It was obviously a relic left behind by the previous Divine Priest, which the Bone Serpent had merely collected.

John casually tossed the bracelet to Snowla, chuckling, "You lucky girl, this gear is of no use to me, so it's yours..."

Snowla hastily grabbed the Holy Light Anthem, looking at John in surprise.

"Brother Galewind, this is a legendary bracelet! It's one of the top pieces of gear that can't be found server-wide! You're just giving it to me so casually?"

John glanced at her oddly and responded lightly, "Well, why not? I'm not a Holy Light class, it's of no use to me..."

Snowla dramatically ran her fingers through her hair, saying somewhat speechlessly, "Do you even understand what I'm saying? This is a legendary piece of equipment, it's worth a fortune!"

"If you auctioned this off, probably every Holy Light class player in the world would go crazy for it. If Adam saw it, he'd be willing to spend at least a billion to buy it... And you're just willing to give away such gear?"

John furrowed his brows, responding somewhat irritably, "How is it just giving it away? It's not like you're some random person..."

Snowla was left speechless, but a touch of excitement quietly surged deep within her.

She delicately held the Holy Light Anthem, her exquisite and perfect face brimming with happiness.

Even at this point, she didn't have a single legendary piece of equipment on her.

At the previous auction held at Dawn Breeze Auction House, she had tried to win the Tear of Medusa, but was outbid by the richer Traveler's Association.

That incident, coupled with the fact that she had been duped by the Travelers' guild leader, Bambooist, only deepened Snowla's grudge against him...

Now that John had unhesitatingly given her a piece of legendary equipment, how could Snowla not feel overjoyed?

Her eyes shimmered, gazing at John as if she were about to melt.

This affectionate look gave John the creeps.

John quickly lowered his head, looking at the second piece of equipment in his hands:

[Flowing Light (epic equipment) (Dark Night Set 1/5): In the ancient times, a powerful individual collected the world's rarest materials in order to fight against divine beings, and asked the Dwarven master craftsmen to create the Dark Night Set. The Dark Night Set consists of five pieces of gear: light armor (Agarwood), boots (Flowing Light), bracers (Azure Blood), helmet (Skyholding), and the most important, a long sword (God Ask). Gathering all five pieces of equipment can break the limit and upgrade to a legendary set...]

[Level: 230. Can be equipped when the level reaches 230 or the speed is over 1000.]

[Class: All melee classes]

[Properties: +300 speed, +450 agility, +200 strength...]

[Set properties: 2/5: Additional +500 strength, +25% armor penetration... 4/5: Additional +1000 strength, +50% armor penetration... 5/5: Additional +10000 strength, +80% armor penetration, +80% critical damage, +60% execute effect...]

[Note: This set can grow, you can use higher-level materials to optimize it, and the growth limit: unlimited.]

John looked at the miniaturized pair of boots within the light, a glint flashed through his eyes.

This was a set of equipment?

In Godslayer, such equipment sets were quite rare.

In terms of rarity, they were of a much higher level than any other piece of equipment at the same level.

Even John had rarely encountered them.

The last time was when he was exploring Sunset Mountain with Adam, who was wearing a set of equipment.

However, when compared carefully, this Dark Night Set that John held was undoubtedly much more precious than Adam's set.

After all, Adam's set, although also epic, was specific to his hidden class "Divine Vanguard."

The Holy Light Church's inherited class set couldn't possibly have great properties.

But this Dark Night Set in John's hands was different.

It was created by an ancient powerhouse who exhausted his life's resources, incorporating countless precious materials in the process, and was crafted by a Dwarven master craftsman.

What excited John the most was the note at the end of the set's attribute information.

This set had the ability to grow, which was quite terrifying.

This meant that as long as John was willing to invest materials into the Dark Night Set in the future, it could grow infinitely.

Even the possibility of it eventually evolving into a Divine set wasn't out of the question...

John immediately equipped the boots.

The moment Flowing Light replaced his ordinary boots, John felt a lightness in his steps and an immediate boost in his speed attribute.

"This set is pretty overpowered too. Even though individual pieces are only of epic level, if you manage to collect them all, it could directly ascend into a legendary set. The boost in extra attributes is astonishing. It's quite fitting for you, Galewind," Snowla chuckled at the side.

This lass had previously checked the attributes of Flowing Light, and was equally impressed by the properties of the Dark Night Set.

John gave a slight smile, shaking his head in resignation, "The attributes are indeed good, but trying to collect all five pieces of the set, it's going to be quite a challenge..."

Snowla covered her laughing lips, teasingly saying, "Take it slow... With such extraordinary properties, this top-notch equipment is worth waiting for."

John nodded slightly. He had been agonizing over what kind of equipment he should get for himself. At least now he had a goal worth striving for...

However, he was quite curious.

The equipment dropped by the Bone Serpent didn't seem to have any relation to the creature itself.

He wondered where it got the "Flowing Light" from.

[System Notification: You have completed the quest. You can now proceed to the Mercenary Hall to claim your quest rewards...]

The system notification sounded, but John didn't choose to go back and turn in the quest.

Instead, he looked straight up at the sky.

The Bone Serpent had been incinerated into ashes amid the blazing flames, and the scepter floating above, now bereft of any Blood Ritual items, had stopped spinning and was slowly descending.

Snowla also focused all her attention on the falling scepter.

Her beautiful eyes sparkled with excitement.

She had come here specifically for this scepter.

Acquiring the "Holy Light's Sigh" was an unexpected boon.

Only by getting this scepter, which represented the status of a "Divine Priest," would she truly complete her quest.

The scepter quietly landed on the ground, all its Holy Light energy receded, and it looked rather ordinary.

Snowla was about to step forward to pick up the scepter, but John stopped her.

"Hold on, it's not over yet..."

Snowla turned around in surprise, only to see an unprecedented seriousness in John's eyes.

It was only then that she realized something was changing in their surroundings.

First, the waist-high withered green grass around them began to sway as if driven by an invisible wind.

The motion of the grass grew stronger, and eventually, they were uprooted and swept up into the air by a gusty wind that came out of nowhere.

The ground began to tremble, and countless cracks spread out in all directions from the spot where the scepter lay.

The next moment, a crack appeared in mid-air, and a slender, dark purple arm shot out from the crack, grabbing onto the edge of it.

A terrifying aura suddenly spread out, causing the entire Bone Cave to shudder.

Snowla turned pale and tightly clung to John's arm.

She felt as if her entire body was being squeezed by an immense force.

She couldn't even lift her head, and her heart was pounding wildly.

Seeing this, John quickly channeled some energy into Snowla, slightly alleviating the pressure she was under.

"What... what's going on with this sudden aura?" Snowla asked, panic flickering in her eyes and an incredulous expression on her face.

John, with a poker face, slowly enunciated two words: "Divine Power."

Although Snowla didn't understand what those two words implied, the increasingly terrifying aura around them hinted that whatever was about to emerge from the crack in the sky would be absolutely monstrous.

"This creature must be far more powerful than the Bone Serpent, right? What should we do? Should we run for our lives before it emerges?"

John squinted at the crack in the sky and calmly said, "It's too late. Even if we wanted to retreat now, we wouldn't be able to."

Almost the moment John finished speaking, another arm stretched out from the crack in the sky, grabbing onto the edge of the rift.

The two dark purple arms pulled forcefully in opposite directions, tearing open a larger gap in the crack. A figure slowly poked out half its head.

John quickly turned around, covering Snowla's eyes. "Don't look!"

Snowla obediently closed her eyes and asked curiously, "What's wrong? Is the creature that ugly?"

John shook his head, his gaze growing more intense. "No, the reason I don't want you to look is because— a divine being should not be directly looked upon!"

"If you had gazed at it, your soul might have been obliterated by now."

Snowla stood still behind John, letting him cover her eyes. Only one thought was going through her mind right now.

The creature that emerged... was it actually a god?!
