Chapter 1554 1554. God Of Courage’s Sword

The ten were at the reward space. Fierce Flame was sulky because she was again the first to die, but she felt better after looking at the scores she got. She was able to get a piece of the legendary equipment. Not only her, but everyone could get one this time.

"Dude… How did you get your scores so high? A little bit more and maybe you will get the 200,000 scores needed for that full set of legendary armor," Paytowin remarked when he saw Jack's scores.

"Well, we did grind the Herald to below half of his life," Jack said. "We probably don't need to wait until we all have legendary equipment before we beat that Herald."

"Hm… I seriously doubt that," Paytowin said. They managed to devise a way to counter the Herald's second sun, but the evolved demonic possession was not something that could be easily dealt with. They were killed by standard attacks once the Herald used that spell. How to bloody stop standard attacks?

"Anyway, let's get us legendary equipment first," Jet said. He was very eager to get one. He interfaced with the exchange list when it was Jack who usually did it first. Jack didn't mind. He waited behind for his turn.

Jet only had enough scores to get armor equipment, so he chose chest armor. The others who had scores below 150,000 scores did the same, getting armor equipment, except for Grace who chose a legendary accessory. A ring which cost 130,000 scores.

When Jack asked her why she didn't get armor, she replied, "The set armor I wear is sealed equipment given by God Greed. Once I reach level 80, the seal will be released and they will return to their original state which is legendary grade."

"Good lord…," Jack uttered. "We have to go through all this trouble just to get one piece of legendary equipment. You will get a full set of them just by leveling up…"

Everyone except Jack had increased one level from the exp points rewarded following the scores. Grace was now level 79. She needed only one more level-up.

"For your information, my mace here is also a sealed weapon from God Greed," Grace said.

"Sister Grace, do you mind putting a good word for me to your God?" Paytowin asked.

"Aren't you already have Ghost Callan? Go and ask him! Be careful or you will be branded traitor by the Council of Virtus," Jack said.

"I'm just kidding," Paytowin said.

Jack approached Grace afterward and said, "Grace, if only for me, maybe you can ask God Greed to give me some legendary armor? No, no… Even if only lending them to me is fine as well."

The others gave Jack a disgusted look. If the guy saying it was not Jack, they would have given him a boot to the butt. Grace decided to not entertain Jack's request.

Leavemealone already had legendary chest armor from the previous run, he took legendary battle bracers this time. As a battle monk, his arms could be used to parry. These bracers would mitigate more damage the next time he parried an attack.

Both Jeanny and John had enough scores to get a legendary weapon. They did so.

Jeanny chose a legendary-grade spear. With the chest armor from the previous run, she now had two pieces of legendary equipment. She replaced Abdu's spear with this new spear. Abdu's spear would be placed into the guild warehouse for guild members to exchange using their guild contribution points.

John chose a legendary magic staff that facilitated the summoner class. The weapon gave all his summons an additional boost in stats and damage output. In addition, it also had an active skill that summoned a level 90 mythical-grade Emperor Lion.

"You know, for a legendary weapon. I would have expected it to let me summon an eternal-grade creature. This is such a letdown," John remarked.

"If you want that, I think you will need the magic staff that cost 170,000 scores," Jack said. It was now his turn and he was scrolling up the list.

"Do you want to get a legendary magic staff?" Jeanny asked.

"No, I'm getting another longsword," Jack answered.

"The God of Courage's Sword?" Peniel asked. "You can't feed that sword to your Storm Breaker."

"I know, but I can imprint it to my Magic Weapon," Jack said. "This way, when I use the Magic Weapon spell, I will be wielding two legendary swords."

Jack proceeded to exchange his scores for the God of Courage's Sword. A golden longsword descended from above. It had a cross-guard with the shape of a lion's head and two paws extended to both sides. Its pommel was a large jewel that glowed with rainbow colors.

The sword shone a bright golden radiance. Jack thought at first that this glow only accompanied the sword to give it a striking entrance. But after it landed in Jack's hand, the radiance persisted. The glow didn't seem to fade anytime soon.

'I don't need the Illumination spell with this sword around,' Jack thought amusingly. He used Inspect on this sword.
