Chapter 1615: Chapter 1615: You Bad Magic Wand
Sitting in the horse-drawn carriage pulled by Lotcar, Gao Yuanyi yawned and rubbed his eyes.
While Yang Yu communicated with the Church, Gao Yuanyi took this time to create the item Yang Yu needed, which consumed a lot of stamina.
Li Yan and Tico did not leave the team; instead, they continued participating as representatives of the All Things Library.
Yang Yu’s plan just happened to require roles capable of releasing strong currents, making Tico and Li Yan the ideal choices.
In the game, people tasked with specific missions are generally called Tool Men.
But Tico and the others were not Tool Men.
The first instruction Yang Yu gave them was to cherish their lives, and then just do what they believed was right.
Yang Yu’s requirements for other companions were roughly the same; they were already a mature team, and even if nothing specific was stated, everyone knew what to do.
Sliding the item bar, Yang Yu sorted through the items, passing unused note pages and items to Bai Jin to handle.
Useful items were all stuffed by Yang Yu into the storage bag obtained from the Dragon God Conference.
Holding the pages and flipping through them one by one, Bai Jin could see Yang Yu’s effort.
Yang Yu hadn’t completely foreseen what Sol Rott would say; he just organized what Sol Rott might say and then selected the most suitable script based on Sol Rott’s reactions.
The narrative content following that was mostly fixed; the modifications Yang Yu needed to make were on the first few pages.
Because the giant dragons are very sensitive to magic, Yang Yu didn’t know if his tricks would be seen through by them, so he prepared over a dozen scripts to handle different situations.
Bai Jin and the others, who could use Duplication Magic, helped Yang Yu a lot.
Looking out the window, various sceneries passed by Bai Jin’s eyes. A small flame ignited at her fingertips, reluctantly burning the evidence of Yang Yu’s efforts.
Is this adventure about to end?
Can all the remaining hurdles be crossed?
Such thoughts involuntarily emerged in her mind. Bai Jin tapped the carriage floor with her Magic Wand, the Sigh Seed, using magic to sprinkle the ashes onto the ground, subconsciously leaning closer to Yang Yu.
Yang Yu raised his head, his gaze drifting to Bai Jin.
Even though Yang Yu’s mood was like a student the day before an exam, he still feigned an utterly natural expression to gently reassure Bai Jin:
"How are you doing? Are you okay?
This is the method obtained from the Nine-Life Cat Demon, and it should be correct.
With this, you can fully utilize the power within the Magic Wand, increasing our chances significantly.
Don’t worry too much."
The Artifact Spirit Plan is the plan to create Bai Jin’s Sigh Seed and Gao Yuanyi’s Laplace.
Equipment used over a long time will incur certain wear, and while Legendary Equipment has self-recovery abilities, their recovery is generally very slow.
To solve this problem and to provide some guidance for weapon users, the "Artifact Spirit" Plan officially launched.
A special entity, somewhere between a soul and artificial intelligence, is implanted into various weapons, forming Artifact Spirits like the White Centipede and Laplace.
The Artifact Spirit has a mechanism to prevent the user from being harmed by the weapon’s true power.
This mechanism is utilized by the Sigh Seed, which seals the weapon’s true power, intending to use a contractual manner to share part of the user’s physical rights.
Actually, the White Centipede has no malicious intentions.
Throughout the years, it has faithfully followed its agreement with the designer, diligently guiding its user to develop its true power.
Until...
At a critical moment, it made a pact with the user and discovered it had occupied the user’s body.
At the beginning, the Sigh Seed contemplated how to return the user’s body, but to maintain the user’s vital functions and relations with ordinary people, it began to replace the user in performing various biological activities. It then gradually indulged in this, unable to extricate itself, and started enjoying the feeling of living.
Then, the Sigh Seed turned into a mischievous Magic Wand, constantly devising ways to make contracts with others, borrowing their bodies for a few days.
And the abilities it provides the user are actually inherent functions of the Magic Wand.
As for the magical knowledge, it is stored in its knowledge base, meant to be taught to the user.
On the two occasions when it tried to speak to Bai Jin, the White Centipede was quite confident in persuading her, but was repeatedly rejected by Bai Jin. It had no choice but to retreat.
Some might say letting it occupy the body for a day or two isn’t a big deal; see how greedy the child gets.
However, as soon as a contract is made with the Sigh Seed, the Magic Wand will slowly become connected to the user.
The amplification magic of the Sigh Seed is based on a series of loads brought by the buffering magic.
When the weapon and the user are connected, this series of loads is also transferred onto the user, which over time causes physical burdens and reduces the user’s lifespan.
After learning about this, Laplace immediately jumped out from Gao Yuanyi’s mechanical arm, ran into Bai Jin’s Magic Wand, and gave the Sigh Seed a good beating.
Claiming to act with righteous indignation, in reality, it was just to satisfy its own desires; Laplace truly wanted to spit on it before leaving.
Knowing the White Centipede’s goal, Yang Yu asked the All-knowing Queen for a way to bypass the White Centipede and grant Bai Jin higher permissions directly.
Bai Jin, using the Magic Wand’s more advanced powers, no longer needed White Centipede’s consent. The White Centipede entirely became an optional appendage.
Bai Jin leaned slightly on Yang Yu’s shoulder, "Don’t worry, apart from occasionally being a bit noisy, everything is normal.
Have you sorted everything out? Is there nothing left to collect or burn?
If you’re a little tired sometimes, can I rest on your shoulder for a while? If you’re tired, you can also lean on my shoulder."
Yang Yu nodded, permitting Bai Jin’s small gesture of endearment.
Everyone knew what lay ahead of them. Without a word, they turned their gazes away, attending to their tasks.
Yang Yu switched the system panel to the Skill Bar, reviewing the skills learned so far and confirming the small skills derived from the must-kill skill after leaving the Nine-Life Cat Demon Kingdom.
Laplace and the Sigh Seed are weapons that educate the user, cultivating exceptionally skilled warriors.
The Sky-breaking Dragon Roar used by Yang Yu and the Shield, Broken Cocoon Butterfly, adapted automatically to the user; both were derived from the Grude Plan.
However, the Sky-breaking Dragon Roar closely resembles a skill naturally comprehended by a demon.
And naturally comprehended skills possess a high degree of modifiability and developmental potential.
Hence, during the prominence of Ancient Martial, various skills emerged like bamboo shoots after rain.
Yang Yu was able to improve some skills only because they hadn’t been optimized to their fullest potential.
