Eryndor nodded, he was definitely satisfied with the rewards, and was waiting for the last reward.
He personally inspected each one of them.
Contrary to his previous experiences, the practice technique and offensive cultivation art wasn’t sent directly to his phone but was given to him in an USB.
He heard his guide speak once again.
"The contents will be destroyed once they are plugged into a device, make sure you are using it on one of your personal items."
Turning around, he nodded to her.
"It’s here."
Molina used her remote to open the door once again, allowing entry to the worker, who dropped a box and left.
"It was fortunate that the Federation already had the type of weapon you requested, else we would have to make it from scratch.
"But then again, this one is already enchanted. If you don’t like the abilities on it, you can have a custom made one with the ones you have in mind."
Eryndor opened the box while replying to her.
"I’ll first test it out."
He first read through the letter in the box which explained all the functions of the weapon, then held the object in hand, feeling quite heavy even by his enhanced physique’s standards.
It was a spiked mace, one which had a detachable upper part, and connected to the handle by a chain.
It was a weapon designed for both brutal strikes and unpredictable mid-range combat.
At first glance, it appeared to be an ordinary spiked mace with a solid, menacing head.
However, with a flick of Qi infusion, the spiked mace head detached from the handle, revealing a hidden, retractable chain forged from metals at the peak of level one.
This allowed the weapon to transition between a heavy mace for crushing blows and a flail-like form for extended-range attacks, sweeps, and unpredictable strikes.
With Molina’s permission, Eryndor tried its abilities in the room itself.
In case the target resisted, or displayed some unfathomable abilities after being corrupted, this room was made to be quite durable. Hence, he was allowed to test his weapon here.
Eryndor swung it mid air. It helped that there was no furniture in this sufficiently sized room, except for the table and two chairs, so he wouldn’t be damaging anything.
This is convenient, I can control the chain through my Qi.
As mentioned in the letter accompanying the weapon in the box, the chain remained connected to the handle, and through a Qi based mechanism, it could be controlled, like extend and retract at will.
Once he reached a sufficient level of skill, he could alter the chain’s length mid-swing, giving it deceptive range.
The only problem was that the pattern enchantments on it glowed when he imbued Qi. It irked him a bit.
The spiked head was also designed to rotate mid-air, allowing it to bite into armor, weapons, or flesh with devastating effect.
Eryndor felt the chains with his bare hands. It was mentioned that they could channel elemental Qi to enhance strikes.
He had no way to test it now, but once he made the Breath of Lightning God cultivation practice technique fully modify his realm, he would be able to channel his lightning element Qi through these chains to test the effectiveness.
Eryndor held the mace with both his hands, and channeled his Qi to test another function.
Soon, the spiked head began glowing slightly, which made Eryndor frown. This was the turning point alright. Why was every enchantment glowing?
His Sovereign’s Cloak was far better in this area, allowing him to do whatever he wished with it. But then again, that was an ability, this wasn’t.
Turning to Molina, he asked.
"Can this glow be removed? It gives away that I’m about to do something."
Through consuming enough Qi, the spiked head of the mace could store energy for a devastating blow.
Eryndor didn’t want his enemies to know when the next attack would be disastrous.
Molina shook her head.
"It’s difficult, almost impossible. Anyway, all the weapons with enchantments are going to be like that.
"You would be able to see your opponent’s move as well, so that evens up the field a bit."
Eryndor shrugged, and kept quiet. He would have to put up with this minor inconvenience.
He swung it around a few times, dislodging the spiked head from the handle, and relying on a chain to move it around.
He had to admit, even with the control provided by the Qi based mechanism enchanted on the chain, it was difficult.
There was one major reason he chose such a weapon. Telekinesis.
He wanted to use his Telekinesis in a way such that it would bring the greatest advantage.
He could use a dagger, spear, sword, or other weapons but none of them would bring out the greatest benefit from Telekinesis. At least not from his base form Telekinesis.
In his second form, Eryndor was pretty sure he could control a few weapons with top tier handling and force, but in his base form? He was not so sure.

So he needed a weapon which could complement his abilities even when he was in base form.
What better than a weapon with variable form? His complaint for the glowing enchantment was just for show. In reality, he couldn’t care less.
Sure, it would be a pain to battle in front of everyone, he didn’t know who could sense his ability and who couldn’t.
But when there was no one around? When the battle was unethical? Where he couldn’t leave witnesses?
Eryndor was pretty sure a bit of touch from his Telekinesis at a critical time would be enough to turn the tides.
Glowing enchantments? What was that? He could control the chains purely through his Telekinesis.
Granted, he wouldn’t be able to put extra force and store it in the spiked head through telekinesis, but he would still be able to give a push through Telekinesis which would increase the damage.
His opponent wouldn’t see it coming. Sensing Telekinesis and evading it had a far lower probability than literally watching the enchantments glow and evade it.
Eryndor couldn’t imagine the boost in power every one of these rewards would give him by the time the tournament took place.
He already couldn’t wait for it.
