Chapter 50: Blueprint: War Blade Moonsand
The back of the Ape Turtle’s head exploded and a blood hole appeared there. Fresh blood, liquid and brain matter seeped out from the hole. Its giant body shook without any rhythm. Its hand biting down on Ye Zhongming’s arm slowly relaxed. It lost its only support point, its body struggled and it fell to the ground.
Ye Zhongming held the gun and suppressed the pain and numbness in his right hand. He looked around warily. After a moment, there was nothing abnormal so he heaved a sigh of relief.
He heard rumors that there was more than one Ape Turtle so Ye Zhongming only used two Penetration+4 bullets and not the +6 one.
Yellow Ball scouted the area and confirmed that there wasn’t a second enemy. Only then did Ye Zhongming get into the cement mixer. Only then did his worry disappear.
On a bunch of clothes and bones were three green eggs. Each was half a meter tall and two of them gave off strong life force. They should be close to hatching.
In the middle was a yellow light. Through the light, one could see a leather scroll.
Ye Zhongming’s eyes lit up and he reached out to grab the scroll. With excited emotions, he slowly opened it.
“Warblade Moonsand!”
Two words appeared along with three pictures. It marked the three stages. The first stage was the most simple, it was called Moon Edge and the materials it needed were the most simple. It just needed basic metal. The most expensive thing was demon crystals. It needed one level two demon crystal as the energy source.
Of course, due to the Smith job and a specific blueprint, even the basic Moon Edge was really sharp and could show off the stats of the metal used. Moreover, there was a number on the surface-- Basic Sharpness 10.
This was not a value added after but its basic value. For example, the bullets that Ye Zhongming enchanted, had a basic penetration value and the value added was after the fact. As for what the basic stat was, he couldn’t see it yet.
But one thing couldn’t be denied. Two pieces of mutated bark added 2 toughness. The Blood Tongue Lizard claws added 4 points of penetration. Those stats were decent and brought the equipment to another level. But even so, the stats didn’t exceed 5. Even that bullet which was stacked, only reached 6 points.
But that was just the most basic Moon Edge. Its basic value had reached 10 already. Just thinking about it, one would know how sharp this new blade would be.
Below the picture was a description regarding adding other special materials. Ye Zhongming took a look. It was similar to Enchanting. One could throw in materials to craft together which would raise the quality and also have a chance of adding extra stats.
Ye Zhongming also noticed that the first picture was silver.
Which meant that Moon Edge was a piece of basic silver equipment.
The second picture was green. Just looking at the picture made his heart jump.
Green weapon, how much did he do to get that green sniper rifle? Ye Zhongming wasn’t willing to think about it. Anyways, he had no savings when he died. All his money was used to exchange strengthening potions, jobs and upgrade scrolls, as well as that sniper rifle.
The second picture was known as Sand Dance. Apart from its sharpness reaching 15, there was another stat, toughness 12. Moreover, there was a passive skill-- Sandstorm.
When using Sand Dance, one would form a sand particle field two meters around. Fighting in this field would give the user some physique stats and the enemy would be weakened and damaged.
This skill made Ye Zhongming’s eyes light up. The effect didn’t look very strong but in a battle, even small elements would affect the outcome. Not only did this field affect enemies, but it could also add stats to oneself. That effect was huge.
As expected from a rare weapon, it was really strong.
But although it was strong, the requirements were high too.
To create Moon Dance, the materials weren’t as simple as Moon Edge. Apart frmo the metal, one needed three fixed pieces of materials.
Sycamore Wood, Corrupted Sand Monster Heart, Purple Ink Urchin. n0velusb.c0m
Ye Zhongming was familiar with these things. Sycamore Wood was a wooden structure of mutated plants that were connected to demon crystals. The corrupted Sand Monster was a dungeon monster. Purple Ink Urchin was harder to get, it was something from a level four gachapon, a food for mutated monsters to increase their life force.
As many people would start to have pets in the apocalypse, for example plants and animals they were raising during peacetime, so these animals like dogs became the most common pets. Next were those with special jobs, skills or equipment like summoners, tamers etc.
The mutated monsters could use the Purple Ink Urchin to increase life force and then increase strength. So these things were very popular and their value was only higher than the previous two. What Ye Zhongming didn’t expect was that it was actually needed to craft the blade.
Similar to the first one, behind the second picture was a description that described the materials to throw in.
He looked at the third picture and whistled as he saw a beautiful color.
“Moonlight Battlefield!”
It was the final form, a piece of purple equipment.
In the last life, not to mention owning one, Ye Zhongming didn’t even see many in the past.
He looked at its stats.
“Sharpness +20, Toughness +25, Bleed +20.”
Three basic stats that were over 20!
Just this alone made one look forward and feel afraid about this blade.
A weapon that could cut open enemies and cause them to bleed, everyone would say that it was fantastic!
As compared to Sand Dance, the final form Moonlight Battlefield had two skills.
One was a passive Sandstorm. The effect was much stronger than the last state. What excited Ye Zhongming was the other active skill.
