Chapter 45

Ling Yi first clicked on the “+” sign in the box on the left.

The interface of his rucksack popped up.

After selecting [Howling Wind], the skill appeared in the box on the left.

Immediately after, he did the same thing and placed [Flaming Demon Body] in the right slot.

He then pressed the fusion button below.

[This fusion will consume 100 Gold coins. Do you wish to continue?]

“… Conti– Wait a minute.” Ling Yi suddenly remembered something.

If other people combined a 6-Star and a 7-Star skill, there was a high probability that they would obtain a 6-Star skill.

Fortunately, he had the [Probability Reversal] talent, so the chances of getting an equally high fused skill will be higher for him.

However!

He couldn’t guarantee that the fusion skill he would receive would be of equal value to the initial skills he had.

… But he still had to know.

[Howling Wind] and [Flaming Demon Body] were both boss-specific skills and extremely rare.

If the two were to fuse into an ordinary skill, then he would vomit blood!

“Sh*t… I wanted to reuse the skill…”

Ling Yi furrowed his brows and touched his chin. He stared at the screen in front of him and wondered, ‘What should I do now?‘

Special skills were only rare and valuable, it had nothing to do with strength.

If he could fuse two normal 7 Star skills to get a rare Boss skill, why would he use two of his rare skills to get just one?

Ling Yi heaved a sigh of relief.

It was good that God’s Path was systemized to ask again. Otherwise, he would have regretted his stupid and impatient action.

He used to think the reminder function was unnecessary, but now it seems really useful.

‘Then I’ll just leave these two skills for now and think about it later.‘

Ling Yi then closed the fusion interface.

These two boss-specific skills were not suitable for him to learn, and he did not want to recycle them or sell them to anyone else. Well, that leaves him storing these skills like a storage room for now.

Perhaps it would come in handy one day in the future.

Next, he opened his rucksack and looked at the [Battle Flag].

The E-grade item that Lin Qingyu had sold to him was now lying quietly in the corner of his inventory.

Ling Yi’s gaze naturally caught sight of it.

[Battle Flag – Mutation Potential: High]

‘Wait a moment, how many distress points do I have now?‘

He opened [Super Mutation System]’s straightforward interface and checked his current value.

[Distress Points: 103,027] [Mutation Points: 1,620]

He converted it manually, and it immediately slipped away.

[Distress Points: 27][Mutation Points: 2,650]

Oh! He didn’t expect to have gathered this many points!

Ling Yi looked at the number in satisfaction and immediately began to mutate the item.

[Are you sure you want to mutate the [Battle Flag (Grade E tool)]? (33 Mutation Points required)]

“I’m sure,”

As soon as he finished speaking, he couldn’t help but laugh. ‘I used up my points faster than collecting them. If this continues, I will have to collect more points in the future.”

He sighed.

The worry of happiness.

A moment later, the [Battle Flag] became clear again, and he quickly clicked on it to check.

[Battle Flag (E)]: It needs to be bound to a unit to recognize an owner. It will only take effect after the owner has been identified.

[ 1. Increase all allies’ attributes within a radius of 1,000 meters by 10 points.]

[ 2. Can be withdrawn at the owner’s will.]

[3. Can not be destroyed.]

At first glance, it looked like a fairly standard item.

However, after re-reading it again…

“Mm…” Ling Yi stared at the three effects. Something felt off.

Usually, the correct way of using a flag-type item is to stick to the ground, and all the players that fight within its range will receive its influence or benefits.

From the looks of it, these three effects all had their own reasons for existing.

There was nothing unusual.

However …

‘If we ignore its first effect, isn’t this just an invincible tool that can be returned to the user at any time?‘

Ling Yi touched his chin out of habit as he thought about the possibility of using the flag as a weapon.

He wanted to see if he could attach it onto one and test whether this ‘indestructible’ item could help enhance a weapon’s attribute.

He wondered if it would work as he expected if he attached it to his Elemental Spirit Blade.

‘If it’s possible, then will other types of toll could also be used as a weapon after being mutated?‘

The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was worth trying. He immediately got out of bed and removed the flag from his inventory.

The flag was about 2.3 meters long. It has a thick, long pitch-black pole, a 96 cm long, 64 cm wide black flag with a blood red flame symbol.

In short… It was pretty big.

“Oh? It doesn’t look that bad.”

Ling Yi waved the flag a few times and was surprised to find that the blood-colored flames on the flag would come alive and burn.

They were like fireballs flying in the night sky.

It was mysterious and eye-catching.

And what’s interesting about this item is it was so light, as if there was no wind resisting against the fabric.

It was no different from waving a stick.

“I’ll add the Elemental Spirit Blade on it now. If the effect is excellent…”

Ling Yi trailed off. He looked at the flag with an expectant gaze.

“Elemental Spirit Blade!” He whispered-shouted into the night. He shut his eyes and imagined his bright sword, but he changed its appearance to a flag made of light elements.

When he opened his eyes, a bright flag was in his hands. Then he attached it to the Battle Flag.

Under his gaze, the black flag began to shine brilliantly. After a few breaths, it became a bright flag.

Other than the flame pattern on the flag, there was no way to tell what it initially looked like.

When Ling Yi reached out his hand to hold it …

Unsurprisingly, a terrifying flame erupted from where he held the handle. The bright red and orange flames completely enveloped the entire light flag in the blink of an eye.

Now, it was a flag of light, burning with red and orange flames, giving off a bright and dazzling glow to the surroundings.

“Oh? It had really integrated into it … Okay, okay.”

Ling Yi held it up and waved it a few times. He realized that the original special effect of the Elemental Spirit Blade was still there.

When it was waved, the flagpole and the flag would overflow with brilliant little sparks. They flashed and danced in the air with the wind and then silently withered in the gaps that were not easily observed by time.

‘It’s a success. It seems that it can still be used as a weapon. When I need it in the future, I can take it out and play with it.‘

After verifying that the item could be attached with elemental spirit blades.

With a thought, Ling Yi kept the battle flag.

“Next …”

He walked to the desk and sat down, opening the God’s Path forum. He then searched for information related to Detection skills…

…

The following morning…

When it was past 5 am, the sun from the East had already shone on the land of Shenxia.

The people who got up early had already started their daily activities.

Some were hiking in the wild mountains; some people were holding their breath at the bottom of the lake full of crocodiles; There were also people exercising in the community park…
