"Deal!"
Sitichai, upon hearing that weapon quenching was possible, imdiately agreed.
At this stage, for most Superpower Users, quenching remained a scarce resource.
Sitichai also needed to improve his Combat Power as much as possible before the decisive mont arrived.
Being able to quench weapons before the final battle was a condition no one could refuse.
The deal was struck, and Lu Heng obtained the Skill Crystal Core [Elental Arrow·Fire], then quenched a pair of knuckle-dusters for Sitichai.
[Elental Arrow·Fire: Conjure Fire Elent Arrow using Source Energy, launch it with a crossbow, inflict weapon damage on the target and additional X points of fla damage. Damage coefficient = 2×spiritual power. Skill Consumption: 10 Source Energy. Skill Level: Grade C.]
This skill effectively used 10 points of Source Energy to create an elental arrow, requiring a crossbow to use.
The damage from the Elental Arrow comprised two parts.
The first part was the weapon damage, which was the damage from the crossbow.
The second part was the fla damage equal to 2×spiritual power.
Besides the fla damage, the Elental Arrow had a hidden feature that allowed it to ignore most air resistance and gravity.
This significantly increased the range of the Elental Arrow and allowed shooters to ignore wind direction and gravity, greatly improving shooting accuracy.
After obtaining this Skill Crystal Core, Lu Heng took it back for Su Muyu to absorb.
Su Muyu was a bit nervous, having heard that Lin Zeyu, the God of Misfortune, had failed several tis when absorbing Skill Crystal Cores.
Since there was only one [Elental Arrow·Fire], it would be disastrous if the absorption failed.
Thus, she focused intensely while absorbing the energy from the Crystal Core.
Only when the data panel displayed the [Elental Arrow·Fire] skill did she finally relax. "It succeeded! Thank goodness."
She patted her chest, relieved that she hadn't caught soone's bad luck.
Seeing her nervous deanor, Lu Heng shook his head and smiled, "Not bad in terms of perception."
Su Muyu, curious, asked, "Is there really a 'perception' attribute?"
Lu Heng, tilting his head, replied, "The attribute 'perception' probably exists, but it can't be proven; we might consider it a hidden attribute."
Actually.
In his past life, many Superpower Users had discussed the topic of "perception."
It was generally believed that "perception" existed as a hidden attribute—intangible and invisible, yet genuinely impacting every Superpower User.
Apart from perception, many factors influenced energy absorption, such as focus and energy compatibility.
After acquiring the Elental Arrow skill, Su Muyu tested its effectiveness.
Since she didn't have a crossbow, she simply ford the Elental Arrow in her hand and threw it like a dart.
The Fire Elent Arrow struck the wall and transford into a blaze, burning a black mark onto the wall.
"You still need a weapon. Do you want a bow or a crossbow?" Lu Heng was interested in her preference.
"A crossbow, probably. It's more convenient," Su Muyu had also considered this and found the crossbow easier to handle.
In Stone Hamr Castle, finding a crossbow was quite easy.
Lu Heng originally planned to ask the Iron Arm Leader for one by pulling so strings.
However, Su Muyu felt it unnecessary to trouble the tribe leader and borrowed one from Mia instead.
She and Mia, having escaped together from the Demon Camp's dungeon, were close friends who had shared life-and-death experiences.
"No borrowing!"
Mia imdiately shook her head, refusing to lend the crossbow, but then she suddenly changed tack, laughing, "My crossbow is a gift to you. Co on, let's go to the shooting range, I'll show you how to use it."
Actually, Su Muyu had used a crossbow in the main world before, but that one hadn't undergone Basic Law Integration, so it couldn't be brought into the Abyss World.
After a few practice shots, Su Muyu mastered the trick of shooting Elental Arrows with a crossbow.
Lu Heng watched from the side as she finished test-firing and then took the crossbow to check its attributes.
[Mia's Crossbow]
[Item Level: C]
[Specifications: Length 72 cm, width of bow arms 58 cm, weight 2.2 kg]
[Attribute: Attack Power 60]
[Evaluation: A crossbow forged from fine iron, engraved with Mia's na.]
The crossbow caused shooting damage when attacking, just like firearms, and couldn't benefit from the user's Strength bonus.
Purely in terms of Attack Power, the damage of the crossbow wasn't as high as that of firearms.
After all, as a cold weapon without any Skill bonuses, it definitely couldn't compete with firearms.
However, the crossbow had its advantages, naly, it was relatively quiet when shooting.
Moreover, it could be used with Elental Arrows.
If the damage from the Elental Arrows was included, the power had already surpassed that of a handgun.
Now, Su Muyu's spiritual power was 34 points, the damage coefficient of the Elental Arrows was 2×spiritual power, which was 68 points, and together with the crossbow's 60 points of damage, the total damage reached 128 points.
This damage had already surpassed the 105 points of damage from a Glock G17 handgun.
Another important point was that, as long as there was Source Energy, the crossbow combined with the Elental Arrows could fire without worrying about bullets.
…
Just as Su Muyu was practicing archery at the shooting range, her brow suddenly furrowed, and she said, "My trap has been triggered!"
"Go check it out!"
At the sa ti as Lu Heng spoke, he had already rushed out toward the backyard of Stone Hamr Castle, with Su Muyu and Mia quickly following.
In the garden at the backyard of Stone Hamr Castle, a very enchanting Carrion Flower had grown, captivating and srizing.
At that mont.
Around the flowerbed, about a dozen strands of Source Energy ford Dark Thorns, and so blood was scattered on the ground.
Two days ago, after burning the Evil God's Finger, the pinch of ash that was produced was poured into this flowerbed.
Once the Evil God's Finger was burned to ash, the Divine Attribute had been completely separated and was now worthless.
But that was still a part of the Evil God's body, a place of faith and conversion for the servants of the Evil God.
Therefore, Lu Heng took a precaution and had Su Muyu place a "Dark Thorn Trap" in the flowerbed to prevent anyone from taking the ashes.
Setting this trap was initially to prevent the appearance of a "Traitor" inside Stone Hamr Castle.
Over the past few days, with the operation intercepting the Source Essence Sacrifice, more than twenty human Superpower Users had gathered inside Stone Hamr Castle.
With so many Superpower Users, it was hard to say if soone might trigger the "Traitor Task."
Of course, Lu Heng was also not sure if the trap would work, but it was worth trying.
Unexpectedly, the trap really was triggered.
"Did it get away?" Su Muyu walked closer to the trap to inspect.
The trap had been triggered, but the "thing" that had triggered it was gone, leaving only so blood behind.
The "Dark Thorn Trap" was harmful, causing damage of 3×spiritual power every minute.
This damage was high, and if ensnared by Dark Thorns for a minute, it would result in either death or serious injury.
Of course, if one had enough Strength, they could forcibly break free from the trap.
"If it could break free from the trap, this creature must be high-level," Lu Heng inferred from experience.
Mia walked over, squatted down by the few drops of blood, dabbed a bit with her finger, and sniffed it at her nose, her face imdiately showing a stunned expression as she said, "This is demon's blood. This is bad! A demon has sneaked into Stone Hamr Castle, I need to go inform my father."
Saying this, she ran towards the council hall, shouting as she ran, "Alert Level One, a demon has entered Stone Hamr Castle!"
