Chapter 130 Attribute

All along, apart from the attack power of a genuine Silver weapon, the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella had never had any additional attributes; it was basically like a blank piece of equipment. Even the green equipment given out as system quest rewards often had some additional attributes like increased Strength or Intelligence. But the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella? No, it never had any.

But at level 35, the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella finally possessed an additional attribute for the first time.

Eight Red Scorpion Tail Needles and eight Scarlet Poison Needles ultimately created Bleeding and Poisoning effects, and even more terrifying was the 8% probability. Compared to the 3% burning probability attached to the level 40 Orange spear, the Blazing Light Twin Edge Halberd, it wasn't hard to see how prominent the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella was in terms of probability.

After checking that all the attributes were as expected and there were no problems, Ye Xiu finally felt relieved. Self-made weapons were determined by every detail. If the placement of the eight Scarlet Poison Needles was uneven in length, or if the arrangement of the barbs of the eight Red Scorpion Tail Needles was different from the current staggered arrangement, different attack attributes and additional attributes could ultimately appear. The current result was the optimal state achieved after countless practical attempts.

The spear form was all normal, and Ye Xiu immediately tapped the keyboard. Lord Grim shook his wrist, and the umbrella ribs that had flipped up, along with the umbrella surface, had flipped back. It wasn't put away, but it was properly in the shape of an umbrella should be. However, for the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella, this form was defined as the shield form.

The level 35 shield form, made from forty silkworm silks, still didn't have any additional attributes, but the basic defense enhancement and damage absorption attributes had all reached the values they should have. However, for the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella, the shield form could really only be used as a temporary emergency measure in the most critical moments. The higher the level, the more the unchanging durability of the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella was insufficient for the shield form. If he wasn't careful in his calculations, the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella could be destroyed in shield form.

The spear and shield forms were both successfully completed, but other parts such as the umbrella ribs, umbrella handle, sword in the handle, and umbrella tip could not be evolved due to insufficient materials.

Although Ye Xiu had collected a large amount of materials through many means, the materials needed next, apart from the Red Shadow Katana from the First Line Canyon's level 35 Orange weapon, all had to be obtained from the Scarlet Forest.

The Scarlet Forest dungeon required levels 34-36. Just before the Christmas event, the first-tier level players of the major guilds had just reached level 34 and started fighting in the Scarlet Forest dungeon. The materials from the Scarlet Forest, the entire tenth server hadn't produced much yet, and now wanting to gather them all was a bit too much to ask.

Ye Xiu was very clear about this, so he wasn't in a hurry to find these materials for the time being. As for the Red Shadow Katana, Ye Xiu had asked Tyrannical Ambition for this Orange weapon twice before. The first time was on the grounds of not breaking records, and it ended without a result. The second time was in the bet he made with Zhang Xinjie, which also mentioned this Orange weapon. It was a pity that Tyrannical Ambition didn't have a reason at the time, and later replaced it with other materials.

Whether Tyrannical Ambition really didn't have it or pretended not to have it, Ye Xiu didn't know, but he could see that the production of Orange weapons was indeed relatively rare.

"This blade can be tried to collect," Ye Xiu thought, and then he sent out an advertisement in the world channel to buy the Red Shadow Katana.

The world was so big, and the First Line Canyon had been trampled on by players for a while after all. Even if it was an Orange weapon, the drop rate was lower than rare materials. But the problem was that not many people had gone to clear the Scarlet Forest dungeon yet, and this Orange blade, after so many days of battle in the First Line Canyon by so many players, Ye Xiu believed that there should be some output.

As expected, even though it was morning and the game wasn't very popular, several friend requests were quickly submitted by the system. Ye Xiu added them one by one and asked. As a result, one of the five people misheard, taking the buyer of the blade as the seller, and turned into Ye Xiu's competitor.

Ye Xiu ignored him and asked the other four.

Ye Xiu naturally knew how much the Red Shadow Katana was worth. He only hoped not to encounter the kind of newbie who didn't understand anything and stubbornly thought he was being cheated. It would be annoying if they insisted on a high price and argued with him. Even if Ye Xiu would spare no expense to make the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella, it didn't mean that he would be happy to be ripped off.

Of the remaining four people, one only said that they were curious about the price and just asked casually, and disappeared without saying whether they had the goods or not. Then of the three after that, two came up and asked Ye Xiu for a price. Ye Xiu naturally quoted a fair price that wouldn't benefit or harm anyone, but one of them directly replied "Goodbye," as if they had encountered a scammer and ran away. Another one heard Ye Xiu's quote, but didn't reply for the time being, seeming to be considering. The remaining one took the initiative to offer Ye Xiu a price. However, the price offered was higher than Ye Xiu's fair price. But this was normal; whether it was a valuation error, or leaving room for bargaining, the seller would always inflate the value.

Ye Xiu didn't rush to reply, but waited for the player who hadn't responded after hearing his quote.

This player was indeed considering, and replied after a moment: "A bit low!"

Ye Xiu didn't waste words, adding a bit to his fair price, partly as a price increase and partly as a counter-offer, and replied to both of them.

Then the one who took the initiative to quote began to eloquently defend his quote, while the one who received the price increase seemed to hesitate for a while before replying that he accepted.

Ye Xiu immediately agreed to meet the person at a location, while the message from the first talkative person was just on its fourth line when Ye Xiu replied, "Sorry, received it." That person's message stopped, and no more messages came. Whether they regretted it in their heart was unknown.

Buying the blade required cash, and Ye Xiu didn't really have that many gold coins. But he had plenty of materials, so he sent a message to the player to discuss whether the materials could be discounted. If it was a newbie, then it would definitely be hopeless. Newbies simply didn't know the value of rare materials. However, this player seemed to know a bit, and after bargaining with Ye Xiu in a knowledgeable manner, he readily accepted the discount plan proposed by Ye Xiu.

Immediately, they each brought their items and agreed to meet at a location. After opening the trade window, they each checked the trade items, and then confirmed, the transaction was completed. Just like the countless transactions that happened in the game every day, it ended uneventfully.

Saying goodbye to each other, the two were already busy with their own things. Ye Xiu went into the equipment editor on the spot. The production of this sword in the handle was relatively simple in the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella system; he just needed to shape the material into the appropriate shape. Of course, in the beginning of the research, this was also achieved after countless experiments and attempts. Some materials couldn't be shaped, and some materials that were shaped weren't at this level stage...

Ye Xiu was now very certain that each material he recovered had actually been selected after countless trials and failures. Until the end, after finally summarizing the rules, looking back at these selections, he realized that they were so obvious at a glance. And to get to this point, he must have accumulated it from countless failures.

Ye Xiu sighed at all of this in his heart. The Red Shadow Katana had already been shaped into a suitable form. He took out the original sword in the handle, inserted the new one, and saved the edits.

Returning to the game, when he drew the sword from the handle of the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella, the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella was already displayed as "Sword Form". The crafted Red Shadow Katana had been completely changed except for the red blade.

Myriad Manifestations Umbrella (Sword Form), Level 35.

Weight 2.3 kg, Durability 23, Attack Speed 5.

Physical Attack 390, Magic Attack 440.

In addition, the critical hit rate increased by 2%, which was an original attribute attached to the Red Shadow Katana, but it was still not lost after being crafted into this form. The sword form of the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella finally had an additional attribute.

With this form completed, Ye Xiu could only wait for the tenth server to clear the Scarlet Forest dungeon for a few more days for other improvements. Only when everyone had gains could he sell guides or other methods to earn money. In short, it was absolutely impossible to rely on clearing the dungeon himself.

Lord Grim left Congee City and headed towards the City of Sin. Ye Xiu sent a message to Tang Rou, asking her if she wanted to grind a dungeon.

In fact, with Ye Xiu's strength, not to mention this level 37-39, even a level 70 five-person dungeon, Ye Xiu had enough strength to solo it. However, soloing would never encounter hidden Bosses. Considering this, Ye Xiu didn't mind having a companion.

Tang Rou was following the guide to do some quests. After Cold Smoke Rou leveled up from 31 to 38, there were naturally some quests that rewarded attribute points or skill books in the seven-level pile of quests that had to be done. Tang Rou was currently clearing them step by step according to the guide. Hearing Ye Xiu's call, she immediately put the quest aside and ran to the City of Sin to meet Ye Xiu.

The two met in the City of Sin and formed a team.

"Just the two of us?" Tang Rou looked around, not seeing anyone else.

"Who else could it be?" Ye Xiu said helplessly. Among the people he knew well, apart from Su Mucheng, everyone else's level wasn't high enough for the City of Sin.

"Then let's go!" Tang Rou said. When she asked "Just the two of us?", she was definitely not questioning how the two of them would clear the dungeon, but that with the two of them, they could leave immediately, that was all.

The dungeon in the City of Sin was located in an underground prison in the city.

The prisoners who were imprisoned in the City of Sin under the name of sin, one could imagine how ferocious they were. And this prison also had no rules, and the prisoners could move freely. Of course, if you understood the background through the quest plot, there was still a reasonable story explanation. It was nothing more than the prisoners in the prison rioting and killing the guards, at which point the mighty players were needed to team up and severely suppress the most desperate of these desperate criminals.

Ye Xiu and Tang Rou, one had read the plot ten years ago, and the other would get dizzy as soon as they saw the large pile of text in the quest, so they wouldn't bother to understand this. The two arrived at the entrance of the dungeon and quickly entered. Their only goal was to kill!
