The Dimension Space had over five hundred sets of armor from the Holy Cathedral of Fire . These were meant for their soldiers and were all low-class magic equipment, but there was also equipment meant for paladins .
The exceptional suits of armor were carved with Magic Formations and were imbued with physical and magic resistance . Longswords and broadswords were placed opposite of the armor's location, and they were easily identified as there was a fire symbol on every blade .
[These are definitely stolen equipment meant to spply the Unifying Guild, and their rarity is on par with the Thorn of Light . Hah . Now they are my victory spoils and can be used to equip my White Lion Army…… Though some modifications to their appearances are required . ]
There was a messy stack of random equipment floating in the air . However, he discovered that they were not high-grade . Amman probably looted them from his enemies and did not bother to arrange them .
[Hmm? Wait . That's interesting . ]
Brendel discovered an accessory with a black gemstone in the center near the floating equipment . He was sensitive to great loot and found the accessory's shape familiar, and he could not help but grab it to inspect it in detail .
The center of the black gemstone had silver runes in them that seemed like it was made by nature .
[Tear of the Witch Demon? It's even rarer than Halran Gaia!]
– Tear of the Witch Demon (300 OZ)
– Adds Stoneskin trait to the user
– 300 HP, +1 Defense, Curse Spell Level +1
– Rune Activation: Instantly cast an Eighth Circle spell and below .
– Remaining Charges: 0/30
“I see, so it's this thing that allows Amman to cast his defensive spells so quickly . This thing is really a cheat item . As a Warrior profession, I have one of the higher HP count out there, and it's at 411 . Wearing this is clost to doubling my HP . No wonder Amman is like an undying cockroach . He probably has the hp of a level 80 warrior . ”
Brendel grumbled to himself . There were many types of fantastic equipment in the game, and it was a bad thing to judge someone with common sense . There was a lot of truth in the sentence 'Never underestimate your enemies or your head is forfeit' in the game .
“An equipment with 300 OZ, hmm . Even Halran Gaia has just over 100 OZ . Technically speaking my level is too low to wear this accessory now . If I insist on wearing it a few weeks ago, I will have to strip myself naked just to use it . But now I have insane Will stats, and my OZ limit is at 300 + 1240 OZ . Hahahaha . ”
The youth immediately wore it . The Charges could be restored over time like the Ring Of the Empress's Wind Bullet, though he did not know how long it would take since it had such a large capacity .
He heard footsteps just as he was done admiring the pendant .
It had only been a couple of minutes .
“Scarlett… . . ? No, it's not her . ” Brendel's ears focused on the footsteps, but they were heavy and stable, while Scarlett's footsteps were light and guarded .
The youth hurriedly dropped off the fragments of Mavekart's Grimoire and dashed out of the Dimension Space . He then poured his immense Will into it and closed the sphere-shaped hole into a silver line and tethered it to his mind . As long as he lived, no one else would be able to access it .
This silver line was a weakness in this world that led to a different plane of a different time and space . By tying it up with one's Will, they would be able to carry it around . A Bag of Holding was a physical entity created by wizards that did the same thing, but the difference was that the Bag of Holding 's durability was no different from a normal bag .
In order to prevent these bags from being torn apart, some of the players in the game actually stuffed them in their underwear . There was never any limit to being shameless . Brendel chuckled at this random thought before he looked up at the approaching person . He squinted his eyes to look past the layer of dust and discovered a tall figure .
The person was just as he had expected, Mephisto .
“You should come right now to take a look at what we found,” the Sword Saint of Ashes stood at the edge of the crater and said .
His gaze was composed and serene . It was if the massive bloodlust that he had when he chased Brendel was like an illusion .
[How the heck did this bloody airhead get raised as a kid? Not even an apology for chasing me all over the place . It's like he believes he has the right to do anything he wants . ]
Brendel wondered how to describe his personality . Arrogance? Smug? Excessive pride? How would one describe a person who dared to challenge the Empire alone?
“What did you discover?”
“There is something below the ruins . ”
[Something below this courtyard? No matter how I look at it, it's just a simple market . What did they find instead of going to the World Tree?]
Brendel nodded to Mephisto and climbed out of the pit .
“Are you sure you don't want to be on your guard around this man?”
“Don't worry . I know him better than Veronica . ” Brendel answered .
Mephisto detested attacking someone sneakily . Honestly, it was rare for him to take an interest in anyone if it did not concern his revenge for the Empire . Furthermore, their interests were currently aligned and he would never disrupt it with his own hands .
Brendel leisurely walked ahead with Mephisto looking behind his back without moving a muscle . But a flash of surprise streaked across the latter's eyes . Either the youth was a fool or a genius at reading someone . Since Amman was furious enough to throw his life away to kill Brendel, then the youth had to be a genius .
The thoughts in Mephisto's mind never stopped after he made a deal with Veronica . He naturally thought about the possibility of Brendel failing to light up the Fire Seed, or that the deal would somehow be reneged . Thinking that the deal would really succeed was actually placed all the way back in his mind .
However, after observing the youth and considering his earlier performance against Amman, there was a sudden shift in his mentality . As long as Brendel gave him a third of this land, he would definitely be able to restore his House . Perhaps working with this youth was not a bad thing, and it was a pleasant thing to be allied with someone intelligent . The youth was merely twenty years old, and he already had a brilliant achievement . It might even be possible that Brendel would be the one who could offer protection to him in the future .
[I have never thought myself to be someone invincible or one who could continue to fight against the Empire . Those fools from the other factions seemed to think that they are the center of the world and I would be interested in joining their worthless crusades . It's a question whether House Sutherland is able to continue after my death even if I restore it here . I'm not even sure whether I can find a successor . ]
“Ser Mephisto . are you coming? I don't know where I'm supposed to go . ” Brendel turned around and asked when he realized Mephisto was not moving .
The Sword Saint of Ashes's mind was spinning its cogs rapidly, and there was a sudden change in his tone: “It's over there, I'll bring you over . ”
Brendel's head shifted to the right and looked puzzledly at him .
But Mephisto walked off with large strides .
“Is it really wise to leave Andesha alone with Veronica?” Brendel suddenly asked .
“Don't worry, Veronica and I discussed with each other and we decided to explore the courtyard first, and only make our way to the World Tree when you rejoin us . But there is something of interest that I discovered and want you to look at . ” Mephisto said .
Brendel and the girls followed Mephisto, who led them to the courtyard's corner . The earlier battle with Andesha made the ground collapse and revealed an empty space . The black vegetation that Brendel grew with his blood had extended downwards into the empty space as though it had been doing so for centuries . It was because of the strange growth that Mephisto discovered the artificially created passage .
When they finally made their way to the end of the passage, Brendel immediately rubbed his chin in contemplation . There was a Magic Formation, comprised of thinly crafted crystals a few meters wide and two thumbs high, jutting out from the ground . A thin line of crystals that extended out from the Magic Formation led deeper into the passage .
[Crystal Circuits? These are built to transfer an incredible amount of energy . And if it's secretly built under the courtyard…… The conspicuous buildings in the World Tree, and the ordinary courtyard that has something so intricate beneath it . Therefore the World Tree is a distraction, while the true identity of this courtyard is—]
Brendel could only think of one possibility .
The Fire Seed .
“Ser Mephisto, I think you have discovered what we have been looking for,” Brendel said in a grave tone .
The Crystal Circuits repeated themselves in one direction . As long as they followed it, they would reach their final target .
