Chapter 1358: Pity of the Purgatory Gods

Pop pop pop…

After Zishui was done begging, he finally died and dropped a floor of equipment, enhancement gems, magic stones and more. As expected of the final boss of Bloodthirsty Castle, his loot was plentiful.

To avoid someone stealing the loot, I threw everything into my bag first. When the items were in my position according to the system, I sat down beside Zishui’s body and pulled out the items one by one. There was a cool-looking bloody necklace with a spiraling skull as a pendant, a ring that glowed with moonlight, and a light purple translucent sword. Judging from its glow and design alone, I had no doubt that it was at least a Sacred Armament. Lin Yixin would want to wield this for sure.

But first, let’s check out the bloody necklace. I waved my hand over it, and everyone including me started salivating at its stats screen—

Introduction: Within the dark and terrifying depths of hell, the gods ruled over the spirits of the dead. The divine spirits of the Purgatory were brutal and strong, so they constantly warred against each other without a shred of pity. For thousands and thousands of years, negative emotions kept accumulating, divine experts kept dying, and spiritualities were shattered one after another, seemingly endlessly. Finally, a single tear of pity was born within the Purgatory. These energies converged into the Pity of the Purgatory Gods, a necklace that stands above all else. Legend says that the wearer of this necklace will be bestowed with the Purgatory’s greatest power.

Reputation Requirement: 1000000

……

"Oh man…" I held the necklace in one hand while wiping my saliva with the other. "This baby adds so much Strength and Stamina it’s crazy, and there’s a 110% boost to Attack to boot. This Pardon of the Gods gives the user a 30% chance to dodge all magic attacks, something that’s never been seen in the game until now. This is a godlike item for any melee player… Yiyi, Eve, this one’s between the three of us. If either one of you roll it, please lend it to me for a day so I can bully Luo River God of the Capital in the champion arena.."

Lin Yixin shot me a disdainful glance. "I cannot believe you. Sister Wang Luo is truly unfortunate to make an acquaintance of you…"

"Yeah, yeah, like you won’t do the exact same thing. Let’s go!"

"Okay!"

All three of us were super nervous. He Yi was going to forfeit her right until she gave in to my firm insistence. We picked up our virtual dice and threw them. A heart-thumping moment later, the result was as follows—

77!

12!

100!

Lian Xin’s eyes widened. "Holy shit, who’s the one who rolled a natural 100?"

They were my dice! I wasn’t ashamed to admit that I felt a bit dizzy at that moment. To think that I would win this godlike necklace fair and square...

I picked up the Pity of the Purgatory Gods and said, "Alright, I’ll be taking this necklace. Are you both okay with this?"

Lin Yixin shrugged. "Sure. Just remember to help me when I get into a fight later!"

"Of course!"

He Yi said, "Lu Chen, you don’t need your Necklace of the War God’s Broken Blade anymore, right? Can you give it to me? I like its amazing 7-second stun…"

"Sure!"

I removed the necklace and passed it to He Yi directly. Then, I equipped the Pity of the Purgatory Gods and watched my stats skyrocket. A vast amount of energy surged inside my body and made me feel like a martial expert who had just been gifted sixty years of internal qi in one go. I felt even better when I looked at my character stat screen

……

Despite the levels I had lost throughout the boss fight, killing Zishui still propelled me all the way to Level 237. The most obvious change after equipping the Pity of the Purgatory Gods was that my base HP had finally exceeded a million. Assuming the best-case scenario, with my HP being buffed by the Undying Berserker Card for 100%, Purple Dragon for 150%, and a bard HP buff for 70%, my total HP would equal 1.05 million times 4.25 or 4,462,500 HP. No one could call themselves a tank in my presence, muahahahaha!

"Hello?"

Lin Yixin clapped my shoulder and said, "Earth to Lu Chen? Can you go through the rest of the equipment first before you bask in happiness? Also, we still need to turn in the quest before we can go to sleep. I don’t want to deepen my dark circles any more…"

I nodded. "Yeah, sorry!"

I inspected the ring next. It only took me a second to decide to toss it into Lian Xin’s hands—

Moon Spirit Ring: Level 230 Sacred Armament ring, increases user’s Magic Attack by 120% and max HP by 70000, reduces casting time by 15%. This was obviously a mage item, and the only one in our party who could use it was Lian Xin.

……

Finally, we locked our eyes on the light purple sword. Lin Yixin clasped her hands together in excitement and said hopefully, "Please be good, Zishui. You already gave us an Ancient Divine Armament and a Sacred Armament, so please don’t let this sword fall short. Please please please…"

"Enough…" I rolled my eyes at her before bringing up the stats screen. To be honest, we already knew that this sword was going to be great. Even so, we were shocked by how good it really was—

Purple Spirit Sword (Sacred Armament, Outstanding???????)

Attack: 14000~17200

Strength: +2850

Stamina: +2800

Agility: +2750

Intelligence: +2600

Tactics: +275

Passive: Increases user’s Attack by 225%

Passive: Increases user’s splash effect by 45%

Passive: When swinging the Purple Spirit Sword, 10% chance to deal triple damage. Can be stacked with critical hits.

Slots: 18

Outstanding Property: Purple Wind. When attacking a target, there is a 15% chance to blast them with a powerful gust of purple wind. Deals massive amounts of damage to all targets within an area of 20 yards and slows them slightly.

Introduction: The Purple Spirit Sword was a royal sabre of the ancient Ziyun Empire. It was forged by the divine smiths of the Purple Spirit Clan, but Zishui, the commander-in-chief of the Ziyun Empire, seized it and made it the national treasure of his empire. After the Ziyun Empire was gone, the sword had become Zishui’s personal weapon. Legend says that the owner of the Purple Spirit Sword will obtain the kingly power to rule over countless people and heroes.

……

My heart skipped a beat as I explained, "God damn, this sword is on par with the Chill of the Nine Provinces. No wonder Sacred Armaments are considered to be on par with Lower Divine Armaments. As promised, this is yours, Yiyi. It’s about time you switched out your Seven Star Veluriyam Sword anyway. The guild leader of Snowy Cathaya shouldn’t be running around with a sword this outdated…"

Lin Yixin chided me while accepting the Purple Spirit Sword, "Who do you think I was keeping this sword for? I would’ve changed it a long time ago if it wasn’t a gift from you, hmph hmph…"

Me: "..."

Tak! The Seven Star Veluriyam Sword disappeared, and in its place was the new and powerful Purple Spirit Sword. It so happened that Lin Yixin was wearing purple armor, so the purple sword complemented her well. Combined with the Crimson Crystal Dragon, she looked both cute and absolutely lethal. She truly deserved her title as the Fruit Knife Goddess.

I continued going through the rest of Bloodthirsty Emissary’s loot. Besides the usual enhancement gems and magic stones, Zishui also dropped two tokens in total. One was gold in color, and the other, purple. It was rare for any boss to drop two tokens at once—

Revival Stone: Revives any target whose death timer hasn’t exceeded 100 minutes. Target rank must not exceed Immortal Rank, or the item won’t take effect.

Vassal Token: Usable by a City Lord only. Greatly enhances the properties of a city after use.

……

I curled my lips. "This Revival Stone can only be used one time, and it can’t revive anyone beyond Immortal Rank. Its usage is situational at best. This vassal token though is a completely different story. I wonder if it would increase the power of Heart of the Holy Mages if I used it on Silver City?"

However, He Yi said, "That would be a waste. Silver City will be contested every once in a while, and there’s no telling if we may lose it one day. We should use it on Dark Moon City. After all, Dark Moon City is our guild’s foundation in Sky City…"

I nodded in agreement before pulling Lin Yixin away from her sword, "Hello, earth to Yiyi? Can we have this Vassal Token or not? Just so you know, a vote won’t work in your favor. There’s more Ancient Sword than Snowy Cathaya here, sooooooo…"

Lin Yixin hugged her sword tighter and said, "Take it. This sword is all I needI…"

Murong Mingyue sweat bullets. "OMG, Snowy Cathaya’s leader is such a failure of a leader…"

Me: "..."

Lin Yixin: "..."

……

"Alright, we’ve completed our final objective! Time to head back and turn in the quest, people!"

He Yi pointed at Zishui. "Wait, we need to take the boss with us. Frederick asked us to bring us his head, but…"

I gave it some thought before replying, "No, let’s not do that. It’s unnecessarily cruel, and if nothing else, it looked like Zishui truly loved Selena. Anyway, I’m going to take Princess Serena’s body now!"

"Got it!"

I walked to the center of the map and tried to open the crystal coffin. However, it turned out that it was completely sealed. Left with no choice, I crouched on my feet, grabbed the bottom of the coffin, and summoned my strength as a 5-Strength warrior. Then, I let out a mighty roar and lifted it all the way to my shoulder. Finally, I walked back to Zishui’s body and held it beneath my armpit. It was time to leave!

……

Swhoosh swhoosh swhoosh…

Suddenly, there were three flashes of light. It was Amber Pupil reviving with two Dark Mercenaries players. He watched us warily while saying, "Fuck, we’re too late! The boss is dead!"

I glanced at them carelessly before saying, "Eve, Yiyi, take them out!"

Amber Pupil shuddered visibly before yelling, "Run!"

……

The so-called tyrants of the outer lands vanished into the darkness like they were never there.
