The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse Chapter 1549 - 1062: Procuring Special Items

When the Holy Sword of the Holy Court was brought out, the entire cave seed to brighten a bit.

The Holy Light flowing along the blade cast intricate light patterns on the rock walls.

Piao floated over and looked down, "It’s quite beautiful, it’s a pity to throw it in."

"Yeah, it always feels like a waste to throw it in," Bella chid in.

Wu Heng glanced at the Holy Sword, "No matter how beautiful it is, we can’t use it. Rather than keep it as a display, why not take a gamble and let it serve a purpose?"

Lady said from the side, "You two stop causing trouble. If you want sothing pretty, have a craftsman make one back ho. Why did we co all this way?"

"I just think it’s a pity it’s so beautiful," Xiao Xiao muttered, hiding behind Wu Heng, "Auntie is like our guidance counselor!"

Lady rolled her eyes at her, "Take it as a complint."

"Then I’ll lt it!" Wu Heng said, letting go of the sword.

The Holy Sword fell vertically into the lava, and with the rising bubbles, released bursts of golden light before being completely consud.

[lting (47.8%)]

Wu Heng raised an eyebrow.

It increased by 23.3%.

A Holy Sword, regarded as a core weapon by the Holy Court, only increased by a little over 23% here.

But compared to before, that seems like quite a bit.

After all, the bag of fragnts thrown in earlier only increased by 24%.

Then, Wu Heng took out the Holy Crown, the gemstones on its top reflecting light.

This ti, Glenda also spoke, "There are so many gemstones on it, should we take them off first...?"

"Taking them off would count as Special Item fragnts, don’t bother." Wu Heng tossed the crown down.

The crown floated in the lava, the gemstones lting one after another.

[lting (59.1%)]

This ornate, gemstone-laden hat only increased by 11 points!

Could it be that weapons have a greater increase?

He took out a Scepter next, which was used by the Holy Seat elder during the Week of Courage in the Yeko Kingdom.

The lava swallowed the Scepter... (74.1%).

It seems the previous guess about weapons gaining more was also inaccurate.

The Scepter didn’t increase the points significantly either.

On second thought, makes sense—the Heart of Molten Fire is a Special Item, but also an inanimate object, incapable of discerning whether what’s thrown in is a weapon or another part.

Therefore, the increase can’t be based on category.

If a pattern could easily be found, the short people would have figured it out long ago.

Moving on, Wu Heng took out another confiscated Special Item.

As the Special Item was thrown in, the flas on the Heart of Molten Fire burned brighter and more vigorously, resembling a mini sun now dripping continuously with flowing fire.

It seed to be nearing the critical point ntioned by the short people.

Lady flew around the Special Item and said, "Looks like we’ve indeed reached the critical point the short people ntioned. If we keep putting things in, everything thrown in before might be wasted."

Glenda also said, "I think this is enough. Let the short people know and see what the next step should be?"

The two souls were talking, but Wu Heng was focused on the data panel only he could see, [lting (87.7%)].

If he guessed correctly, the maximum value is 100%.

There was still so room before the spirit world point, and importantly, he could see the progress and had full control.

Right now, there was no way to continue putting in complete Special Items, but he could keep putting in so fragnts to increase the progress.

"Wu Heng!" Glenda’s voice pulled him back to reality, "What are you thinking about now?"

"I’m calculating the number of Special Items used, looking for a pattern," Wu Heng explained, then continued, "The Heart of Molten Fire still has room for improvent, but using complete items is clearly not feasible. We need to add so Special Item fragnts."

"Are you sure? Don’t lose the big for the small," Lady said skeptically.

After all, if so many Special Items were thrown in and nothing was gained, the loss would be too great.

"I’m confident," Wu Heng said seriously.

"Are there any Special Item fragnts left?" Glenda asked.

"None left!"

They lacked experience earlier, thinking the fragnts were the least valuable, so they threw them all in.

Lady flew around, "Do you want to smash in two complete ones?"

"That would be too wasteful," Wu Heng continued, "Let’s pause for one night. Tomorrow, we’ll go to the West City Area the short people ntioned to buy so fragnts. The price should not be expensive."

Glenda nodded, "I think this thod is feasible."

Lady also said, "The rental period is 15 days. Based on this stipulated ti, others will be more cautious and prudent, unlike you, who throw everything in at the start."

"Then let’s do it this way. Tomorrow morning, let’s go to the market," Wu Heng decisively planned.

Glenda reminded, "Rember the three-day tifra. The short person said if nothing new is thrown into the lava within three days, the lava will solidify. If you don’t find anything, finish the lting within three days."

"Yes, I rember!" Wu Heng nodded.

Saying that, he led the four ghosts outside.

Exiting the cave, Wu Heng looked up at the night sky, the stars over the Deep Furnace Castle veiled by thick smoke, only a few faint halos visible.

The sky was already dark; he had been inside for quite a long ti.

A short guard quickly approached, the iron boots clanking dully on the stone path, "Master, do you need to seal the Heart of Molten Fire?"

"Seal it first," Wu Heng nodded, "I’ll co back tomorrow."

The short person blew a copper whistle, and amidst the rumbling of turning gears, the giant doors slowly closed.

The guarding short person added, "The city hall has prepared accommodations for you in the VIP Building, a carriage is waiting."
