Amber Sword
Chapter 71 - 71 Scene 28 Harbor of Refuge_2

71: Scene 28 Harbor of Refuge_2 71: Scene 28 Harbor of Refuge_2 He couldn’t help but turn back and found that Romantic was studying this wind-sheltered cave with bright eyes through the campfire, as if she was looking at a rare treasure.

Miss Merchant seemed to never be worried about the environment she was in.

“Brand, how did you know about this place?

In this position, those terrifying monsters outside shouldn’t be able to find us, right?” she asked.

Frey nodded: “But we can’t stay here forever.

Once it’s dawn, we have to set out.”

Brand also nodded, they were both right.

Xavier Mountain Path had several such hidden terrains, all on one side of the cliff – many nightingales and hunters had paid with their lives back then to scout out this relatively clever path, allowing them to easily avoid most of the Golden Magic Tree’s demon servants in the valley and get closest to this BOSS.

But there were two difficult points.

The first was to reach the core area of Xavier Mountain Path where the Golden Magic Tree rooted, known as the ‘Forbidden Garden’, which required rope hooks to pass several breaks.

Moreover, the Golden Magic Tree wasn’t foolish, it had several patrol teams of Magic Tree People on the cliff – but Brand had his ways to deal with them.

The second difficult point was to secretly leave through the secret passage behind the ‘Forbidden Garden’, which required Grifentor’s Crystal Key.

But that was hanging on the Golden Tree’s branch, usually they would directly defeat the BOSS and get it, but this time Brand had to find another way.

He had already conceived the general steps, the rest was just improvisation.

After all, not everyone could plan everything perfectly, their plans in the game were just an outline, the kind of step-by-step plans in novels didn’t exist in reality.

And at this time, the cards in hand became extremely important, which was why Brand valued the Wind Queen’s Ring so much.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but take out the Soul Crystal, examining it under the firelight.

The dark Soul Crystal looked like Obsidian, but a Wizard could tell the difference by injecting power – and even an ordinary person could differentiate if they were familiar enough.

But Brand knew a simple testing method, he brought the crystal close to the campfire and saw vaporizing signs on the dark crystalline, which immediately confirmed that it was indeed a Soul Crystal.

This was because the unprotected power of the soul was extremely unstable in front of open flames, which explained why Madara’s low-level undead feared fire so much.

“What is that?” Miss Merchant asked curiously.

Brand placed the crystal on the Wind Queen’s Ring, the crystal dimmed slightly and became somewhat transparent.

He thought for a moment and only injected 10Oz of power, which was enough, any more would be wasteful.

But then he remembered his ebony Stone Ghost Statue, the power contained in the Soul Crystal was the best medium to repair this protective talisman.

But he hesitated when placing the crystal on it, and eventually gave up.

The Stone Ghost Talisman had over three hundred possible control spells, he had spent half the night yesterday trying out half of them without guessing correctly, he had no time to continue testing now.

Besides, the remaining 20 points of experience were just a drop in the bucket, it would be a waste to put it in.

Brand thought, it would take at least 100 points of experience to completely repair it.

What else could this thing do?

Or wait for another application?

But for Brand now, spent experience was useful experience, his power was still too weak, he urgently needed to become stronger.

Only by surviving could he change.

Should he use it himself?

Or convert it into skill experience?

Keeping it for himself was not enough to level up, converting it to skill experience was a ten-to-one exchange which was too bad, and he had no skills to practice under his current mercenary level.

Couldn’t continue leveling up civil soldiers, could he?

That would have to wait until he had ample experience.

Suddenly Brand felt a bit caught in a dilemma, he couldn’t help but check the sky outside, dawn was breaking soon and it would soon get dimly bright, they would set off immediately.

The demon servants of the Golden Magic Tree were blind, only instinctively drawn to light, and sensitive to sound and magic fluctuations, so there was no difference between traveling during the day or night, but for humans, it was more convenient during the day.

At least they wouldn’t need to light torches, fire was too sensitive to the Withered Beast.

His hand continued to rummage in his pocket, looking for something useful, he soon touched something like a paper card.

Brand’s heart moved, he instinctively took it out – he didn’t recognize what it was, but it didn’t stop him from experimenting.

The best way to identify an item was of course with a complete set of documents and alchemy tools, players without such specialty would turn to NPCs.

But even in the game, identification fees were a considerable expenditure, and ‘Amber Sword’ had a feature that even if you didn’t know an item’s attributes, you could still use it as long as you knew how.

So many players developed their own methods of experimenting with unidentified equipment, Brand was no exception.

He tried several commonly used spells, unfortunately without any response.

He thought for a moment and instinctively touched the Soul Crystal against the card, to see if there was any reaction.

Generally speaking, magic items would resonate with the power of the soul, if broken or chargeable, they would react even higher.

But what Brand didn’t expect was, as soon as he touched the two together, the card suddenly emitted a strong light, and the soul crystal in his hand instantly lost color, becoming a transparent crystal prism.

Absorption reaction!

Brand nearly jumped in shock, he looked at the transparent crystal prism in his hand speechless.

Soul Crystals that lost their soul power were called containers, Wizards and Elemental Mages would buy these containers at high prices to make storage items.

Similar to scrolls, or rather exactly the scrolls in this world.

But Brand wasn’t concerned about this, he only felt a bone-chilling cold rising from his back, absorption reactions were one of the strongest external reactions in magic waves, it’s a big deal now, even if the Golden Magic Tree was ten miles away it could sense this magic ripple spreading through the air…

Might not be just the Golden Magic Tree, such a strong reaction, who knows what other strange things nearby might target him.

Only Brand couldn’t understand, how could such a low-level magic item cause an absorption reaction?

It was the privilege of at least 40Oz magic items.

Ignoring the surprised faces of Romantic and Frey – of course they had seen that dazzling black light.

Brand made a quick decision, stood up, and said: “Let’s go, we need to leave here—”
