Chapter 874: Chapter 872: Granting Ash and Limb Tips Chapter 874: Chapter 872: Granting Ash and Limb Tips So, Brother Ji Feng’s spiritual contamination really had some hidden secrets, did it?
I was saying, how could such a high-level character casually experience such agitation!
Recalling the malice from before, Fu Qian seemed to understand something.
But from the reaction just now, it looked like I truly offended someone–no–offended a god.
Even it seemed to be a god with a very strong sense of initiative.
“Task Evaluation: Cold-Blooded Delusional Doctor”
As I sighed about the severity of the problem, the task summary also opportune chimed in.
“As the incarnation of Secluded and Deep, Unseen Hillock is a mysterious and special existence.
It hides outside the material world, in the deepest recesses of every soul.
The depths of humanity’s indigestible nature gradually settle within it, sparing people from degeneration.
Of course, the method to actively enter it is mastered by only a very few.
After trying various methods and finding that his companion’s loss of control was escalating, Xiumeng remembered his own past explorations.
Inside Unseen Hillock, some power generated by the Secluded and Deep as fuel seemed to enhance order.
In his view, that was Logan’s last hope.
Everything went smoothly, especially with your help, they didn’t expend much effort to find numerous flames.
The only problem is, the blessing of the flame wasn’t as good as imagined.
And you, who well knew this point, helped Ji Feng, the incarnation of the Secluded and Deep, avoid getting lost with miraculous means.
In the end, the flame extinguished, and a new balance was reached.
The prisoners reaped false hope, which was enough to support them through the long years.
Even the Night Watchmen, who were prepared to give up, were surprised to find that Logan’s condition had improved for reasons they couldn’t understand.
And under the will of Secluded and Deep, the knight clad in Mirror Armor will also return at a given time.
Of course, that is not you, nor is it Ballard”
“Rewards for Killing: Grim Ballard”
“Reward: SAN Points +25, Granting of Ash”
“Special Reward: Weaver’s Tip”
“Current SAN Points: 59, Current Inspiration: 99”
“Would you like to play the event recap?”
The task was completed and my SAN Points hadn’t even reached 60, roughly counting, I had indeed lost a solid 7 SAN Points just now.
However, it’s best to think on the bright side, I relied on my expert-level determination without using Pseudo-Divine Being, saving 3 points in the process.
After listening attentively, Fu Qian didn’t deprecate himself.
Additionally, this task summary was undoubtedly a bit long, with a large amount of information.
From the content, the first thing that could be confirmed was that my guess at the time was correct.
Ji Feng was indeed the name of the “patient,” the incarnation of Unseen Hillock.
Even that wasn’t the main point; the summary mentioned that Unseen Hillock was not only connected to everyone’s will but could even “collect the precipitate of indigestible humanity.”
So, do Akasha and the others belong to the precipitate of indigestible humanity?
If that were the case, then that would raise a problem.
If the undigested is here, where did the digested go?
Thinking of the many familiar elements in this world, Fu Qian vaguely had an answer.
A world possessing extraordinary power since ancient times yet developing such similar technology is hard not to find strange.
Of course, the protection of the Night Watchmen is certainly a key factor, but if that Brother Ji Feng really hailed from the same place as myself.
Then some of those too-similar elements, could it be they were extracted from his mind?
The possibility could not be dismissed.
…
All things considered, just the informational gains from this mission were quite substantial, making all the efforts worthwhile.
Moreover, when I inspected earlier, Fu Qian also remembered a doubt he’d had before–was the task introduction too rudimentary?
Some tasks, with just a bit more information in the introduction, would be so much easier to carry out.
Yet the performance of the repository seemed intentionally to increase the difficulty.
Against this question, the comparison between the task introduction and the final summary this time led Fu Qian to a possible reason–the repository wasn’t intentionally increasing the difficulty, but under certain rules, it could only provide that much.
And if one did enough exploration during the mission, the final task summary would provide more information.
For example, this time, Fu Qian strongly suspected that if he had not inquired and gotten the name Ji Feng, the information that He is the incarnation of the Secluded and Deep would likely not have been included.
All in all, the information about the seniors I had been seeking seems to have revealed a little clue, which I can study in detail when I have the time.
But for now…
Fu Qian quickly located his two rewards.
“Name: Granting of Ash”
“Type: Ring”
“Effect: A ring condensed from primordial ashes, the ultimate embodiment of the Deeply Profound Concept.
Ash is debris worn to the extreme, already unable to carry any information, so the resulting ring is also simple and rough.
Once activated, the power of Secluded and Deep will flow through the body, putting you in a special state of existence. In this state, each of your strikes will no longer cause damage but will instead bestow the Secluded and Deep’s blessing on the opposition.
Once the blessing accumulates to its limit, the target’s fate will merge with Secluded and Deep, enabling them to behold Unseen Hillock and never be able to leave”
Remarks: Sometimes, blessings require forceful delivery.”
This thing, it’s a bit eerie.
This first reward made Fu Qian feel deeply strange.
The ring that appeared in his palm was a gray and white color.
The design really was as rough and fierce as described in the introduction, like crystals clumped together, barely resembling the shape of a ring.
Ring rewards were not uncommon, and even related to the power of Secluded and Deep matched past experiences, but this effect… the so-called blessing of Secluded and Deep, it didn’t seem quite right in any way.
After reaching its limit, it looked like it would directly exile a person to Brother Ji Feng’s domain, enveloped in those endless gears of fate.
Fu Qian naturally thought of his own experience embraced by ghosts.
If it truly were an effect like that, then it was an ultimate sealing technique.
No need to kill, just forcibly turn someone into a native resident.
This blessing, it seemed, would be shunned by anyone knowing its effect.
Quite powerful, indeed, for someone like me who walks the worldly society, one ought to value peace above all else.
Fu Qian contentedly put on the Granting of Ash, and for a moment, even the design seemed a lot more pleasing to the eye.
He then checked the other special reward.
Name: Weaver’s Tip
Type: Weapon
Introduction: A sharp limb tip broken off a Death Weaver, existing in the form of an exquisite rapier, an item that should not be present in this world.
It’s said that once stained with blood, an intoxicating fragrance will waft from the slim blade
Special Effect: Curse of Oblivion, as an item that should not exist, the venom of the limb tip had long lost its potency, and the target struck by it will no longer suffer flesh decay. Instead, it is the target’s will that withers, and the ravages of time will be magnified a thousandfold
Remarks: Only the most vile of sinners would commit such an affront to ladies”
Are you making a dig at someone with these remarks?
