Nie Yan’s eyes trembled as he stared at the properties of Paternoster’s Warhammer. He immediately took out the Death God’s Edge. These two items were on the same level, but he couldn’t use either for the time being. A sigh escaped his lips as he looked at their amazing stats in admiration.
There was a slight difference between Paternoster’s Warhammer and the Death God’s Edge. While Nie Yan couldn’t take advantage of any of the properties of the Death God’s Edge, that wasn’t the case for Paternoster’s Warhammer. By just having it in his bag, he would receive the effects of All Stats +30% and obtain the Frozen Fortress skill.
Frozen Fortress was a defensive skill. Its effects were quite powerful. It could defend Nie Yan against all damage for up to 30 minutes. This would give him plenty of time to regain his bearings and for his escape skills to come back off cooldown.
“All Stats +30%,” Nie Yan muttered. He checked his defense. It had already reached an astonishing 28,700. His health had reached over 37,000. When all the bonuses were added to his base attack power of 12,000, it even reach as high as 32,000!
Stats like these would leave many Warriors completely speechless. Even a Champion like Bladelight only had 20,000 defense.
28,700 defense with leather armour was roughly equivalent to 15,000 defense with heavy plate armour against physical attacks. As for magical attacks, it was equivalent to 26,000 defense with heavy plate armour.
In other words, Nie Yan far surpassed Bladelight in terms of pure defense against magical attacks. As for physical attacks, he was only slightly worse than Bladelight. Of course, Bladelight was much more durable with a health pool of 130,000.
When Nie Yan took out Paternoster’s Warhammer, a notification popped up.
Song of the Bramble Bird:
☐ Take Paternoster’s Warhammer to the Lost City of Barthe and find Morphest. He will inform you on how to obtain the Assassin’s Heart.
Lost City of Barthe? Nie Yan knitted his brows. He recalled Barthe was once a flourishing city. Until one day the legendary Demon Georgiona cursed it to sink into the underworld, like the sinking city of Atlantis. Records said the city used to be located somewhere in the north of the Satreen Empire.
Looking at the map, that meant Barthe had to be somewhere on the borders of the Demon Tribe in the underworld.
“Looks like I’ll have to make a trip to the underworld again,” Nie Yan muttered. After obtaining Paternoster’s Warhammer, the Song of the Bramble Bird quest was finally in full swing.
Paternoster’s Warhammer emanated a frosty aura, causing the surrounding temperature to drop and mist to form in the air. On the other hand, the Death God’s Edge emanated and aura of darkness which grew stronger and stronger over time. The two unique Sacred Objects seemed to have spirits of their own and started competing.
The clash of magical energies in the air grew more and more intense, spreading further out into the surroundings. If this were allowed to continue on for any longer, Nie Yan would have to start worrying about his own safety.
Nie Yan hurriedly stuffed the two items back into his bag. Only then did they calm down.
Just what sort of secrets did these two Sacred Objects contain? And how many more such items were there in Conviction? Nie Yan couldn’t help but wonder.
People in the previous timeline had likely come across Sacred Objects as well. They were different from ordinary items. They couldn’t be deposited into storage and would drop upon death. He estimated any player that obtained one wouldn’t dare to show it off ostentatiously.
After staying in Orc King City for a while, Nie Yan received word from Swift Maple that a Level 130 Demonified Lord had appeared on the borders of the city’s territory. It had slaughtered six villages, and seemed to be searching for something. However, it didn’t dare to approach the city.
Nie Yan raised an eyebrow in surprise. He didn’t think the Demon Slaughterer would be too afraid to enter Orc King City, taking its anger out on the inhabitants of the surrounding villages instead.
Given the strength of the Demon Slaughterer, as long as a legendary NPC didn’t take action, there was no one that could stop it.
Nie Yan wondered when the Demon Slaughterer would give up.
