Chapter 711 - High-level Upgrade Stone, Warrior Puppet
Ajax was soo excited after seeing the item from the first box.
'I am one step closer to breaking all the seals in Darbaudr's spirit consciousness,'
Ajax revealed a huge smile on his face as he thought, 'I wonder where did Elder Esmund get such a stone. Moreover, he even gave it as a reward.'
That's right!
The reward from the first reward box was a high-level upgrade stone that can upgrade any artifact from heaven grade to legend grade.
However, that chance of failing is too much. Unless, if someone has a high-level success stone, they would not bother using the high-level upgrade stone.
'As for the high-level success stone, I will depend on the system and as long as I complete the missions, I might get it,'
Unlike Elder Esmund how searched for the high-level success stone for his entire life but still didn't find it, Ajax had some hope from the system because as long as his cultivation progress, the rewards he got from the system also increase.
'Until then, I will just upgrade the seal breaking compass to peak heaven grade and break another seal from his spirit consciousness,'
Ajax kept the high-level upgrade stone in his inventory as he continued thinking, 'And the moment I find the high-level success stone, I can remove all the seals in his spirit consciousness in one go.'
Ajax was really excited when he thought about it because if he had successfully brought Darbaudr to his peak strength, he could directly go to war with the assassin sect.
'Anyway, Let's see what are the rewards from the next box,'
Ajax was sure that there would be no high-level success stone in the other boxes because if Elder Esmund had that stone, he would have already upgraded this battle tower to the legend grade.
However, for the next two reward boxes, he was disappointed with the rewards because they were one peak earth grade sword and one low heaven grade spear.
Since he already had the peak heaven grade sword and spear, he didn't find them attractive.
'Looks like these rewards must be from second and third level respectively,'
After seeing the rewards, he assumed that these must be the special rewards for clearing the earlier levels and the high-level upgrade stone must be the special reward for clearing the fourth level earlier than others.
'So, this must be a special reward for the bug,'
Ajax was excited as he looked at the last reward box which was much bigger than other reward boxes.
Without wasting any time, he opened the reward box.
'A puppet?'
However, after opening it, Ajax frowned at the item.
Inside the box, a puppet made up of unknown material was lying with its body folded.
'Ding,
Item name:- Warrior puppet
Grade:- Low Heaven
Details:- A puppet that could help the master in fighting the enemies.
Strength:- (Level 1-8) Elite general realm.
Note:- 1) Depending on the supply of the spirit stones, the strength of the warrior puppets varies from level 1 to level 8 elite general realm.
2) The puppet can't use any skills except for a couple of cultivation techniques inscribed on it already.
Just as he picked the puppet to check the details, the system had already sent the complete details of the puppet.
'Cool'
After checking the information on the puppet, Ajax felt it was good.
'Now, I have another high-level elite general realm warrior to help me,'
For his revenge, the more powerful allies and things were needed and with a smile, he thought to give it some spirit stones to test it.
"The participant should not use the warrior puppet in the battle tower,"
Before he could use some spirit stones on the warrior puppet, the female voice asked him not to use the warrior puppet inside the battle tower.
The battle tower is an artifact that is used to increase the battle prowess of an individual. So, there is a rule not to use any external items except for weapons inside the battle tower.
"Okay,"
Ajax shrugged after hearing the female voice and stored the warrior puppet inside his inventory before started climbing the stairs to the final level of the battle tower.
'No wonder, Elder Esmund is called as a forger of the essences,'
While climbing the stairs, Ajax thought about all the rewards he got today.
Except for the first special reward, all the other rewards were specially forged by Elder Esmund himself.
Elder Esmund was a high-level weapon refiner and an artificer who could refine peak heaven grade weapons and artifacts; however, his success rate for refining the peak heaven grade items was very low. So, there were not many items he refined.
As for the low heaven grade items, there were many in his collection; however, he didn't sell a single one of them in the Zrochester province because no matter where he sold it would finally end up in the hands of top sects which he didn't want.
Nevertheless, he was never lacking in funds and continuously refined to increase his success rate and skill in those two professions.
"I wonder what is waiting for me in the last level of the battle tower,"
Ajax was only a couple of steps away from entering the first hall on the last level of the battle tower.
"What?"
Ajax was shocked when he saw the guardian in the first hall before revealing a slight smile on his face.
...
A few minutes back,
Outside the battle tower,
"Esmund, you gave away the high-level upgrade stone just like that?"
"Have you gone mad or what?"
"If you didn't want that, I would have gladly taken it for you,"
When Ajax opened the first reward box and got the high-level upgrade stone, it raised a commotion among the vagrant cultivators.
Because they all know how valuable a high-level upgrade stone and with how much difficulty that Elder Esmund had gotten his hands on it.
So, when they saw that he placed it in a special reward box, they were all shocked and Elder Ramon even asked that he would have exchanged it for something else.
"Without a high-level success stone, it is just another waste stone in my storage. Moreover, since Ajax had a powerful master, he might help him with the high-level success stone,"
Elder Esmund had given his reason for giving away the high-level upgrade stone with a smile on his face.
"Yeah"
When they heard his words, they nodded their heads but still, they thought Elder Esmund was very generous to casually give away such a valuable item and not to mention, the heaven grade spear technique from earlier.
Overall, it made Elder Esmund a very generous person.
"Peak earth grade sword and Low heaven grade spear…They are good but they were not useful to him,"
The next items didn't raise much commotion until they saw the warrior puppet.
"..."
They were speechless because they didn't know what to say.
The warrior puppet was one of the greatest creations of Elder Esmund. So, they were once again surprised by its generosity.
Nevertheless, they suppressed their emotions and waited for Ajax to enter to see what is on the last level of the battle tower.
'Th..this is…,'
Just like Ajax, they were also shocked after seeing what guardian in the first hall before revealing a slight smile on their faces.
