Sword Among Us

Chapter 990: Unique

[Recondite Steel Heavy Sword:

[A heavy sword needs no edge, and its strength is brought forth by its wielder’s skill!

[It cannot be refined.

[During battle, increases 100 Affinity to add to your ability in resisting attacks. Even if you are suppressed, your attacks will not be interrupted. The success of your block rate is at 90%.

[During battle, increases 100 Arm Strength to add to your suppression ability, which also increases your damage. Your damage will increase based on your environment and angle of your attack. At the lowest, your damage will increase by 1,000. At the highest, your damage will increase by 9,999.]

Once he fulfilled the requirements to wield Recondite Steel Heavy Sword and held the weapon, the attributes of the divine weapon was finally revealed before Happy.

When he saw the unique attribute, Happy sucked in a sharp breath.

As of current, the raw stat of 488 Affinity was among one of the highest raw Affinity stats in the game. With a full set of fourth-echelon demon vessels, Happy can be considered as a top class existence in the game. If he had additional resistance abilities granted to him by an extra 100 Affinity, then, with the effects produced when he used Recondite Steel Heavy Sword, he might become the highest ranked player in terms of Affinity alone.

His Arm Strength was about the same.

He had four hundred Arm Strength. With his equipment and the addition of one hundred Arm Strength given to him by Recondite Steel Heavy Sword to suppress his enemies, his strength was boundless, and even if he ran into Wild Wolves again, Happy felt that with a swing of his sword, he could send them flying. No matter how high their posture retaining abilities were, it was useless.

Total suppression in terms of attributes was above suppression in terms of equipment.

‘How terrifying you are, Recondite Steel Heavy Sword...’

At the same time Happy sucked in a sharp breath in shock, he was a little disappointed by the last characteristic in Recondite Steel Heavy Sword.

Additional damage.

Recondite Steel Heavy Sword was a domineering sword, and it should have such great damage that it should be beyond dispute. But forget about the fact that he could not refine the sword, its additional damage even fluctuated greatly.

1,000 to 9,999 points.

No matter how he looked at it, he needed luck to get high damage.

But when he thought about it in depth, if he could bring out the suppression effect by using his Arm Strength and attack his enemies with absolute advantage, there was no reason for the damage in Recondite Steel Heavy Sword to be too low.

Happy remained silent for a moment.

“I won’t be telling you the characteristics of Recondite Steel Heavy Sword. You should continue training. I might have to egress now and leave Ghost’s Domain.”

“We’ve been training for a long time. Besides, we still haven’t gotten the chance to test the equipment you gave us.”

“That’s right. It’s been a long time since we did clan quests. This time, we switched all our equipment, and we should be able to clear some of the difficult clan quests now.”

Hunter Clan stated that they had been locked in the place for too long, and they made a ruckus about wanting to egress.

Mu Qi suddenly spoke at that moment, “Happy, you mentioned that you had a plan to set up a sect in the past. Is the timing right now?”

Happy thought about it for a while before he answered, “Not yet. If I build a sect right now, it’ll be destroyed too easily.”

Mu Qi nodded, seeming to have understood Happy said, “Are you going to cause trouble to Class One Hall or Blood Alliance when you go out this time?”

“Someone else.” A faint smile flashed on Happy’s face. “This time, I might have to cut down Class One Hall’s second claw.”

*****

Five Venoms was the strongest evil sect in the Chinese server. The people gathered there were all players who would harm others for their own benefits. Most of the poison users in the Chinese server were gathered there. In fact, in terms of overall strength, Five Venoms was stronger than every single branch in Blood Alliance.

Five Venoms had twelve incredibly evil Gu poison users. The Gu poison creatures they had in their hands could all easily destroy a middle-sized or small sect.

And the sect master of Five Venoms was stated to be someone who had Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures. His strength was already equivalent to the top-class elites in World of Martial Arts.

Due to Five Venoms’ strength and many of the rumors about Five Venoms, Five Venoms had always been the most troublesome problem to righteous sects in the Chinese server. At the same time, they were also the sect that they were not willing to provoke and become enemies with the most.

If they provoked Five Venoms, then those people would wait outside Guanlin Temple to quietly release poisonous insects by your feet, and those poisonous insects had never been tamed.

Five Venoms members could suddenly throw poison needles at you while you were training or suddenly have a poisonous snake crawling out of the carcass of your prey while hissing.

It was also because of this reason that Five Venoms, which had its headquarters set in Yangzhou, never had anyone else dare set up their sect in Yangzhou after they destroyed a few of the local sects and those sects which had disagreements with them.

Yangzhou City had now become a kingdom where Five Venoms ruled.

The resources near Yangzhou City and everything in it had Five Venoms’ name attached to it.

But over the past few years, there had been plenty of people who tried to cause trouble to Five Venoms, because Five Venoms also deliberately did things that caused rage among the people, and they never stuck to their own boundaries. Many people were forced to exact vengeance in desperate measures. But there were only a few who managed to get an advantage over Five Venoms up until now.

On this day, a unique guest arrived outside the headquarters for Five Venoms.

That person leisurely walked toward the headquarters of Five Venoms while dressed in a full set of eye-catching fourth-echelon demon vessels. His expression when he walked over under a large number of Five Venoms members’ gazes was incredibly relaxed.

On his way over, those Five Venoms members all put on envious, jealous, and complicated gazes. Even though they were incredibly envious of the elite who had those equipment, they also knew clearly just what sort of people Five Venoms could attack and what sort of people they could not attack.

If they ran into someone difficult to deal with or provoked an enemy who should not be provoked because he had powerful backing, Five Venoms would kick that unlucky sod out of their sect without hesitation and draw a clear line between them.

Five Venoms had done things like this multiple times over the past four years since they had been built.

However, at that moment, a scene that would cause others to be filled with righteous indignation happened at the foot of the stairs outside the headquarters of Five Venoms.

Two players who clearly did not belong to the place were surrounded by a group of Five Venoms members, who had teasing and mocking smiles on their faces while they had high-leveled venomous insects, snakes, and scorpions crawling around the area.

“If we kill one, we’ll break even. If we kill two, we’ll make a profit!”

“Five Venoms, I’ll dig your forefather’s grave and stomp on his bones! You bastards!”

The two people swung their weapons as they tried to kill the venomous snakes, scorpions, and insects who tried to get close to them. They also slowly got closer to the Five Venoms disciples who were not too far away from them.

“What the heck?! These two people have learned their lesson! They actually sprayed high-class Poison Dispelling Powder on themselves!”

“Stop playing with them. We need time to cultivate a group of precious pets as well. If we waste too much time on them, it’ll make us look stupid.”

As the Five Venoms members said this in a relaxed manner, they brought out their own mini cauldrons.

The Five Venoms members who had their own mini cauldrons had all cultivated rather powerful poisonous creatures, and the fighting power in those cauldrons was not that much weaker than a normal elite player in the game.

When the Five Venoms disciples brought out the mini cauldrons, the two people who were surrounded were not terrified. Instead, they were delighted.

A few black rays of light shot out of the mini cauldron.

The two were quick in sight and hand. They flung their arms.

A white powder spread all over the air before it started falling down.

At the same time, those two cut into their own bodies, as if they had decided to conduct acts of self-harm. Their true qi surged out, and their blood gushed forward.

A change occurred!

As the Five Venoms members shouted in anger, the black light that shot through the duo’s bodies suddenly swayed before it fell beside them.

Those two players who had just attacked themselves were in a terrible situation. When the white powder touched their wounds, their bodies melted, and they soon died before they vanished.

When they saw this scene, the Five Venoms members wailed in anger.

“Bone-corroding Powder!”

“Jerks! Give me back my poisonous pet! I’ve been keeping it for a year!”

“Kill them!”

“Kill!”

When some of the Five Venoms members saw that their poison pets swiftly melted into the white powder after blood splashed on them, their eyes immediately turned bloodshot, and they wanted badly to rush forward to strike the corpses of the two people to vent their anger.

“This won’t do!”

“They actually used such a sinister item like Bone-corroding Powder to kill my poison pet! If I don’t kill them a few more times, I won’t be able to vent my hate!”

“Let’s go!”

“To Guanlin Temple!”

The Five Venoms members who lost their poison pets were so angry that they wanted to cough up blood. Their expressions were twisted into a horrid look, and they were filled with anger. They moved in a group and were prepared to rush to Guanlin Temple and kill those two a few more times.

But at that moment, they suddenly noticed a non Five Venoms member who was dressed in a full set of fourth echelon demon vessels walking to the door of their headquarters with quick footsteps.

The group stopped moving.

One of them shouted loudly at the person. “Hey! That’s the headquarters of Five Venoms! If you’re looking for someone, send a messenger pigeon to contact them! If you move any further, don’t blame us for being rude!”

“How rude are you going to be?” The person stopped moving, turned his head around, and smiled.

“Heh. It’s another one who is here to cause trouble.”

The group smiled while their eyes shone with bright light. “Make him drop his equipment, and we’ll split it equally among us!”

Even though they would usually not dare to readily provoke someone with such awesome equipment, they were not wary of killing someone who approached the door to the headquarters of Five Venoms without reason.

“We’ll let go of those two at Guanlin Temple for now. If we kill this person, the money I get will allow me to get a few high quality poison pets.”

“Don’t get careless.”

While the group discussed with each other, they swiftly surrounded the person.

“You don’t know your place, do you?” The person just smiled coldly before he drew his longsword.

Boom!

The sound produced was different from a normal sword whine.

The entire dimension shuddered, and a great sword will instantly arrived in front of those Five Venoms members.

There was no substantial sword glare, but the people panicked, as if they had been burned by black flames. The light around them dimmed, and it was as if they were swathed in a hot and black sea of flames.

This was the true sword will for Great Demonic World Destruction Art.

When its user drew his or her sword, the great sword will produced could destroy the world.

There was no need for the user to even execute the second slash. That sword will that surged to the sky alone was already enough to easily tear through and destroy the mental defense within a normal player’s heart.

Thud! Thud!

When the group of people’s mental defense was broken, a hidden force containing extreme Yang energy charged into their bodies violently.

They were not prepared for it, and their heart meridian was destroyed on the spot.

“What a bunch of losers.”

Happy frowned slightly when he saw that the group of Five Venoms members did not even manage to live through one single hidden force, making him look incredibly disappointed.

Even though Five Venoms investigated poison arts to kill others, they were much more inferior to the other players when it came to hidden force and body fortifications. Their body constitutions were about as frail as trap masters, but they were still much weaker than what Happy expected. In fact, they were not just slightly weaker than the people from Class One Hall.

They were leagues weaker.

Happy had a general gist behind why Dream Clouds was still not willing to admit that Five Venoms was one of its affiliated sects even after it had grown to this extent.

Five Venoms was indeed not strong enough to bring anything to the table for Class One Hall.

“Who are you?!”

While he thought about this, the Five Venoms members who passed by the area noticed the unusual slaughter in the area. They cried out in shock and anger as they rushed over.

But before their voices even faded away, they noticed that the person had vanished from their sights.

It was as if a violent gust of wind blew past their bodies. The black flames that filled up the area then occupied their fields of vision in a terrifying manner.

The black flames were just like a poisonous snake in their eyes.
