Chapter 676: Man-made Divine Weapon

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A divine weapon forged by the hands of a player had finally appeared. Compared to his previous life, the appearance of man-made divine weapons had been brought forward by an entire year.

Snickersnee, a pure lifestyle class player and the wielder of the mighty Territory Skill, Titan's Grip whose only noteworthy achievement up till that point had been the casual disposal of the wielder of Absolute Invincibility, Drifting Snow.

Upon the announcement of the divine weapon, the World Channel exploded into an uproar as countless players avidly sent messages inside the channel. Some expressed their shock, whereas some expressed their bitterness. There were also those who were thrilled about it, and there were those who congratulated him…

Li Yi Teleported to Little Drunk Cat Guild's map instantly and immediately sought out Snickersnee.

Snickersnee had a two-handed greatsword that was larger than a shield in hand, and he was currently polishing it.

“Guild Master.”

Snickersnee directed a humble smile at Li Yi and immediately went back to polishing the 'largesword'.

Li Yi batted his eyes and queried, “Is that the divine weapon you forged?”

“I think so. I don't even know what's happening, but at least I've advanced to Legendary-level Ironsmith now, all thanks to the Natural Bloodstone you gave me. It's like a miracle! I believe that there's a link between my advancement and the Natural Bloodstone!”

Snickersnee was caressing the 'largesword' in his hands. His face was flushed with excitement.

“That sounds about right…”

“Guild Master, do you still have any Natural Bloodstones on you?”

Li Yi shook his head. “Nope. The piece I gave you was the only one I had.”

“Damned, if I knew that it would result in a divine weapon, I would've forged a bow instead.”

Snickersnee heaved a sigh and went back to polishing his 'largesword'.

At that instant, another thirty or so players rushed into the map and gave their congratulations to him. The purpose of their visit was the same as Li Yi's, as all of them were here to get a glimpse of the divine weapon.

“Great Master Snickersnee! Does this sword have a name? If so, what's it called? What about its attributes? Does it have any specialties?”

“Yeah! Yeah! Can you show us its stats?”

“Wowee, a divine greatsword! It's truly out of this world!”

A group of players was now clumped around Snickersnee, expressing their desire to view the sword's stats.

Snickersnee chuckled, “The sword has yet to be named, and as such, I cannot display its stats. However, even after giving a lot of thought to it, I still can't find an appropriate name for it. So why don't you guys help come up with a name for the sword?”

“Naming a divine weapon!?” All thirty-odd members exclaimed in unison.

Snickersnee gave a childish grin. “Alright, I'll use the best name that you guys come up with.”

“Bastard Sword!”

“Deer-slaying Sword!”

“Overpowered Sword!”

“Don't be stupid guys! Just look at its width, so why don't we call it Ultrwide Sword?”

“You're the dumb one here! Do you really think Ultrwide Sword sounds like a divine weapon? Keep dreaming bud. Observe how I name it, Invincible God Sword!”

“Dogsh*t! I think we should call it Snickersnee 1 to fully demonstrate Snickersnee's brilliance!”

“Blablabla, with such an odd shape, I think it best to call it Eggsword.”

The players talked over one another and they had suggested over a hundred names. Even so, Snickersnee only shook his head, expressing his dissatisfaction.

This was the best weapon that he had ever created and were he to give it a ridiculous name, he would never be able to live it down.

Snickersnee asked Li Yi, “Guild Master, what about you?”

After lapsing into deep thought, Li Yi responded with, “Green Dragon Crescent Blade.”

“Guild Master, this weapon doesn't even have a shaft, it's a far cry from the Green Dragon Crescent Blade. 1 Your naming skills aren't much better than the rest of us.”

“I agree, how can this weapon be the Green Dragon Crescent Blade? It doesn't even look the same, this won't do, this won't do at all.”

The players strongly objected, vetoing Li Yi's decision.

Li Yi shrugged his shoulders. His naming skills had been 'extraordinary' all the while, so it proved to be quite a challenge for him to come up with a good name.

Li Yi proposed, “How about we carry out a vote to decide its name?”

“Alright.” Snickersnee gave the go-ahead.

Little Drunk Cat's Guild Channel was starting to liven up. Members frantically flooded the channel, and in the end, only a hundred or so names had been filtered out to be voted.

Jiaojiao and Qian'er had participated in the naming contest as well, but the names they submitted were promptly removed by Li Yi. Jiaojiao had suggested 'Lil Chili Sword', whereas Qian'er had suggested 'Hundred Flowers Slasher' 1 , which was utterly nonsensical. In order to defend their image, Li Yi utilized his authority and privately took down their suggestions.

The voting process had begun, and pretty soon, they had reached a conclusion.

Names like Bastard Sword, Overpowered Sword and the like did not even make it past the selection process. In the end, the name Shieldsword had achieved total victory with over ten thousand votes in its favor.

Snickersnee was pleased with it. “Let's call it Shieldsword then!”

Snickersnee tapped the option to give the largesword a name, and all seven colors of the rainbow shot out of the largesword and went skyward. From that moment onwards, the largesword would officially be named Shieldsword.

It looked like a shield, and at the same time, it looked like a greatsword as well. With that sword in hand, the user would no longer even require a shield. As such, calling it Shieldsword was extremely appropriate.

After naming it, Snickersnee displayed the Shieldsword's stats for everyone to see.

[Shieldsword (Orange Quality, Legendary)]

[Requirement: 2800 points of STR. Class: Warrior, Paladin, Vagabond.]

[Durability: 50000/ 50000]

[8000 – 25000 ATK]

[STR +2500]

[AGI +1000]

[WIL +1000]

[END +2000]

[DEF +20000]

[ATK SPD: 5 Seconds]

[Additional attributes: ??? (unknown)]

[Note: This a peerless divine construct crafted by Great Master Snickersnee. It possesses tremendous power.]

Upon the reveal of its stats, another wave of awe washed over the players.

25,000 ATK, an incredibly terrifying figure…

“Well what d'ya know, it really is a divine weapon, huh. God damn, it even adds 20,000 DEF, which is even higher than carrying a shield.”

“Even if there aren't any additional attributes, that thing can already be considered as a piece of end-game equipment…”

“Tch, f*ck me…”

“I have nothing to say except that if I was its owner, I would be able to crush the World of Pantheon…”

There were no level requirements. As long as players had 2,800 points of STR, they would be able to wield the equipment.

“Snickersnee, sell the sword, man! With this sword alone, you'll be set for the rest of your life.”

“Yeah, since there's no way to estimate its price right now, why don't you just put in the auction and see what you'll be able to make off with.”

“This is so overpowered…”

A crowd of players were enviously eyeing Snickersnee and were eagerly suggesting his next moves.

Snickersnee remained silent all the while. Only when they had finally stopped talking did he shake his head. “I'm not going to sell this word.”

“You're going to keep it to yourself? As a lifestyle class player, this divine item's potential would be squandered on you, brother.”

“Yeah! Yeah…”

Snickersnee gave a wry smile. “I'm not going to use it.”

“Then what do you intend to do? Gift it to someone?”

“Ding! Ding! We have a winner, yes, I'm going to give it to somebody.”

Snickersnee presented the Shieldsword to Li Yi, and instantly, the Ironsmithy fell deadly silent.

Aside from naïve newbies, who did not know the Shieldsword's value? With a terrifying base ATK as high as 25,000, it's overpowered-ness was already enough to make players go speechless. So, if it were to be auctioned off, it would not have any trouble being sold off, even with a price tag of over a hundred million.

Seeing the look of confusion of the people around him, Snickersnee chortled, “I'm not lacking in money. Besides, the only reason I play games is to experience a different lifestyle and nothing else.”

Someone coughed, and the person blurted, “You're not lacking money? Brother, do you even know how much this Shieldsword is worth? It's over a hundred million, my god…”

Shortsword chuckled and in an innocent tone, he stated, “A hundred million eh, I think that's around the figure of the pocket money I give my son.”

Silence, an eerie silence blanketed the room. Everyone shot their eyes wide open, and their gazes were directed at the average looking Legendary Ironsmith.

Gulp— The person who blurted out at Snickersnee earlier swallowed a huge wad of saliva, and he continued to pursue the matter. “How old is your son this year?”

“He's fourteen.”

No one else was able to utter a single word.

“Guild Master, without that Natural Bloodstone of yours, I would never have reached Legendary Ironsmith this early. I'm extremely grateful for your help, and as such, you're the most suitable person to gift this to.”

Snickersnee presented the Shieldsword to Li Yi once again.

Li Yi did not accept it.

“As an Archer, I have no use for this item. Even if I take it, I can't use it. Do you really think I would sell off a weapon that was personally crafted by you? I think you'd best sort it out yourself.”

This time, it was Snickersnee's turn to be stunned.

“Since I've already resolved to gift it to you, I don't care whether you sell it off or gift it to someone else. It's no longer my business anyways.”

Snickersnee was adamant on his position.

Li Yi shook his head. He would not accept it no matter what Snickersnee said. He was not acting arrogant, instead, he was just at a loss on how to handle the divine weapon.

Ignoring the fact that Li Yi was already financially well off, there was no way that he would sell the item away. Even if he was stripped of all his money, he would never do something as dishonorable as reselling a piece of second-hand equipment. With that being the case, who should he give the weapon to?

There were plenty of players within the guild who were well suited to use the Shieldsword. As such, no matter who he chose, he was bound to anger a lot of players. After mentally going back and forth, he finally settled on refusing the sword.

Snickersnee was forced to comply with Li Yi's wishes. With the Shieldsword still in hand, he swept his gaze from the left to the right. His actions caused much stress to the surrounding players, and with their hearts in their throats, they pierced Snickersnee with gazes that said, “Give it to me! Give it to me…”

Alas, fortune had not favored them. Snickersnee shook his head and lapsed into thought.

Li Yi seized the opportunity to teleport away.

Had he not left, Snickersnee was bound to ask him, “Guild Master, who do you think I should give it to?” Should that happen, Li Yi's words would no longer matter, as the moment the Shieldsword was gifted away, someone was definitely going to blame him for helping Snickersnee make the decision.

'It's your item, so it's your problem! This has nothing to do with me!'

Li Yi made like a weasel and snuck away.

Ding!

Li Yi had just appeared outside when Qian'er sent a private message. “Lil Yi'zi, do you really not want that thing?”

“I don't care what it is, as long as it's from you, I'll take it.”

Qian'er giggled, “Alright, come to Shattered Frost City and I'll give you a hundred slaps.”

“No problem!”

Li Yi instantly teleported to the designated location. Such was the benefits of being a Senior Administrator.

A while later, Qian'er leisurely waltzed over on her Purple Quality Chocobo.

“Bring it! Remember to hit with all your strength, darling.”

Li Yi left his face wide open, and Qian'er responded by making a teasing face. She then handed over a small package to Li Yi.

“Open it and take a look. Don't be too surprised.”

“Oho, how mysterious, could it be condoms?”

Qian'er choked, “Ptui! Your whole brain is filled with perverted thoughts, can't you think of anything else?”

Li Yi had a smile plastered on his face. However, the moment he opened the package, he froze.

“How's that? Ain't it surprising? You don't need to thank me. It's only a small matter to me anyway.”

Qian'er had a smug look on her face, and she was waiting for Li Yi's praise.

Li Yi spread open his arms and hugged Qian'er tightly. He then placed his mouth onto her thin lips and engaged in hardcore kissing.

“Hooli…Mmph! You…mphmphmph…”

Qian'er was just about to scream out when Li Yi inserted his tongue into her mouth…
