Chapter 2913: Chapter 971: Boss, These Wolf People Don’t Smell Right! (2)

Just like this in front of your eyes!

In the sacred posture of Old Qu calling out the name of the Avalon deity, emerald green lights gathered into a storm that surged, instantly creating the illusion of lush green grass on the factory floor. Vines danced like snakes, enveloping and tugging the filthy objects, which ultimately vanished into smoke along with the emerald purification under the beast-like roar of the latter.

"Bang"

Several items shrouded in black smoke fell onto the battlefield filled with gunpowder—the last "drops" left by the Filthy Overlord.

Its body had been completely purified, leaving only a disgusting bloody remnant, and the strange stench in the air had dissipated considerably under Avalon’s purification.

This Divine Arts even comes with an "air filter" effect, truly practical and stylish.

Feeling somewhat fatigued from releasing the Divine Arts, Old Qu stood up supported by Xugou beside him, stopping players from approaching that battlefield. Newbies always get clumsy, and he’s worried there are still dangerous things that haven’t been cleaned up yet, so he drew his handgun and Hunter’s Sword and advanced, allowing the thin layer of green divinity to wrap around his weapons.

He approached the monster’s corpse, looked around, then crouched down to touch the giant axe surrounded by black smoke underfoot.

Item Identification Activated:

Name: Polluted Hunting Battleaxe

Quality: Master-crafted · Commander-level [Cursed Item]

Special Effect: Invisible

Characteristic: Offer this item as a trophy against subspace evil to a shrine of a deity and pray for purification. Once the response is obtained, the curse effect on this item will be dispelled and be randomly granted enhancement effects of different deities.

Note!

This cursed item carries minor subspace pollution; members of the Camp of Order cannot use it directly.

Note!

There is a small chance to upgrade quality and add rare attributes when cursed items are purified by Divine Power.

Item Description:

[Subspace chaotic power is the most poisonous thing in this world. Things that can carry such power without being destroyed are definitely not ordinary items; and the gods fighting against subspace most favor such trophies and the warriors who come with glorious victory.

This is the true ’Proof of Strength’!]

"Attributes like these have never been seen before; it seems to be something new added specifically for the story of the Ligurian Peninsula."

Brother Qu blinked.

Nowadays, even his lowest quality equipment is of Dominator level, so he naturally doesn’t care for these commander-level weapons. He very candidly posted its attributes on the player channel, saying:

"I estimate this thing can be taken to improve reputation with the various churches, maybe even unlock faction-themed quests. All the equipment dropped by this BOSS are cursed items, so, the top ten on the damage leaderboard should roll the dice.

Based on profession, whoever needs it more and rolls higher gets it.

Don’t worry if you can’t get it; we can randomly pick such items while doing battlefield missions here, indicating that there’s plenty of such drops on the Ligurian Peninsula."

"Watch me roll!"

Xugou clicked the dice first, and lost to his wife by 2 points.

He didn’t mind, though. As one of the elite in the guild known as the Twelve Zodiac, he might soon get his own exoskeleton. The quality of this item is somewhat lacking, though it’s desirable for newbies, the experts aren’t interested.

Brother Qu left the equipment distribution to Xugou and walked closer to the corpse of the Filthy Overlord, intending to see what kind of new toy this was. Just as he approached, he spotted something glowing amidst the purified yet still smelly remains, and curiously reached out to touch it. A piece of irregular "small stone" was soon clasped in his hand.

The thing looked like shards of black glass or perhaps the raw ore of some crystal, appearing dim; but upon closer inspection, one could see dark liquid flowing inside, giving an eerie feeling.

Frowning, he activated the Item Identification again; this time, the entry didn’t refresh immediately. After several seconds, he saw a strange piece of information:

Name: Stone of Original Sin [Fragmented]

Special Effect: Holding this item and attempting to communicate with the subspace shadow "Original Sin" has a high probability of losing 100% health and dying instantly, a small chance to see subspace illusions through spirit identification and receive the [Madness Infusion] effect, and a very slight chance to gain Chaos Blessing.

Item Description:

[The Bone Biting Jackal Men lost their gods. To keep their cowardly hearts from being crushed, they offered their faith to even more frightening things. The item in your hand is the last trace of individual existence left in the material world after their souls were sacrificed and flesh was burnt.

Are you... sure you want to summon that dangerous power?]

"What is this thing? It feels just like when Dog Egg tried to summon the Lord of Darkness’s power back then."

Old Qu blinked.

He caressed the Stone of Original Sin in his hand, his strange pursuit of probability stirring within him, much like most players in the game couldn’t help themselves when faced with such luck-testing situations.

What if?

Right?

Even though the probability to get a downright amazing blessing from this is very weak, what if he’s really lucky today, wouldn’t he hit the jackpot?

"Put down that thing in your hand, Major Qu!"

Captain Mia’s voice sounded from beside him, carrying a hint of sternness, she rebuked:

"Midnight’s powers have warned me; what you hold is the source of all evil. These Jackal Men became neither men nor ghosts because of this power; even if you don’t mind dying, I cannot permit you to casually attempt it.
