Chapter 56: Blood Grievance Necklace

"Nonsense!"Elder Feng shouted. "Young master is definitely fine!"

"Is that so? Let's wait and see~"

Zhuang Huai Shui laughed coldly and his voice filled one with hatred.

------

Within the Soul Refining Furnace, I was infuriated. I felt that I could not lose at all and must defeat this ancient remnant soul, even if not for myself but rather for my master's bragging rights. Zhuang Huai Shui was just a scum and I had to slap him in the face.

Sha sha~

I moved out once more without making much noise. With White Cloak, I appeared behind the Minister of Justice. I sucked in a deep breath, activating Blood Drawing Blade. Instantly, the Blade of the Beastrider and Snakebone Blade were covered in red lights; both had 30% lifesteal. I used Annihilation, too, and smashed the Minister of Justice's back!

Shua!

Annihilation effect appeared. The armor on his back was wiped out. That was the effect of his defense being shattered. Terrifying damage numbers appeared. True damage ignored defense, and crit at the same time!

18290!

+5487!

I used my skills at once. Basic attack plus Backstab both landed on the Boss's body. Right when he tried to turn around, I used Hunter's Edge once more and then attacked him at my fastest speed. Pi pi pa pa! It landed on the Boss's body. I had no choice. Blood Drawing Blade only lasted for five seconds, and that short time was my best chance. I could attack and the health I lost could basically be absorbed.

After a series of moves, I retreated and used the same tricks again. Right when the Boss was about to hit me, I used my left dagger to block and slid to the side so I could dodge the damage. Fortunately, the Minister of Justice's attacks were direct. If he changed his direction, such dodging tactics would definitely fail.

After a bunch of random hits, I used White Cloak and disappeared.

At this point, the Boss was left with less than 60% health. This proved that White Cloak and Annihilation was really strong and normal Bosses could not tank it.

"You brat, come out and die!"

In the Soul Refining Furnace, the Minister of Justice attacked. A sword heart placed before his chest and all sorts of dao patterns appeared on it. This guard cultivated for millions of years and was an amazing person. However, his weakness was that he was too dumb. Maybe because of his design, when I saw what he was doing inside, I entered a different train of thought.

Moments ago, when I used White Cloak plus Annihilation, I saw that White Cloak's cooldown directly started from twenty-five seconds. This meant that White Cloak's cooldown did not start counting from the time the last skill ended but from when I activated the skill. It meant that if I entered Stealth with White Cloak and waited sixty seconds before attacking, I could enter White Cloak instantly and attack once more. What did that mean?

Right, double White Cloak attacks!

There was 1 to 1.5 seconds to launch White Cloak's true damage twice. The first could be used with Annihilation and the second with Dragon Will. This was a destructive attack. Who would be able to block it?

When I thought about that, I laughed. Let us use this Minister of Justice to test whether or not this Double White Cloak strategy could succeed!

After waiting for a minute, although I was in Stealth, White Cloak's icon lit up once more to show that the cooldown was over. The Boss also recovered around 10% health. He had 67% health and the battle effects from before were still there!

Attack!

I got behind him and used my skillAnnihilation!

Snakebone Blade slashed through the air and landed on the Boss's back with Annihilation. I was lucky and crit once more.

Type: Armor

Defense: 105

Strength: +46

Stamina: +42

Special effect: Toughness, raise user's health by 900.

Bonus: Raise defense by 5%

Required Level: 34

------

The armor's value was definitely not lower than the Shield of the Guardian. After all, a level 34 Super Rare Armor had no supply. Warriors and Paladins could wear it and its value was naturally much higher than a Paladin's armor. I continued, tossing it into the ancient bracelet's storage space and picking up the final equipment.

Another necklace which looked like it was dyed with blood. Its name was in deep blue and there was an eight-sided gem hanging from the necklace, which gave off a majestic aura. I touched it and its stats appeared in front of me. I was delighted as this was actually something that I could use!

Blood Grievance Necklace (Super Rare)

Strength: +45

Agility: +43

Special effect: Critical strike +0.3%

Effect: Closes combat lifesteal +1.5%

Bonus: Raise user's attack by 6%

Required Level: 34

------

A total of 88 points of Strength and Agility were added, especially the twin effects of Critical Strike and Lifesteal. This was a super good necklace. If I released its stats, all the players would go crazy. Moreover, it added Agility and Strength, so not only could Warriors and Paladins wear it, Assassins, too. Strength was not wasted on me, and along with the two effects, this was a perfect match!

Pa ta!

I placed the Blood Grievance Necklace into my bag. I was only level 33 and was a level away.

Now, my eyes landed on the iron cage. Following the Minister of Justice's departure, the cover was revealed. Was the treasure inside also looking forward to appearing in the world once more?

Peng peng peng~

What did an empire's prized treasure look like? My heart could not help but speed up and my hands trembled as I opened the lid. A bright light exploded from within and a scroll floated out and landed in my hands. I lowered my head and the picture was as if an entire world had appeared in front of me. Wide ocean, endless mountains...It had an indescribable history and depths to it.

"This is..."

I looked at the drawings and my breathing nearly stopped.
