Half Elf Ranger

Chapter 339 Passing on the Ancient Steel Soul
Temple of Melikai.

In a glade surrounded by misty oak trees, Thorne, who was sitting cross-legged here, slowly opened his eyes.

Listening to the cheerful birdsong and watching the small animals wandering and playing in the forest, Thorne felt an unprecedented tranquility and peace, and even the idea of ​​living in seclusion here forever flashed in his mind.

However, for him, this kind of thought was only fleeting.

Thorne smiled and waved away the little sparrow that fell on his shoulders, raised the desert wind in front of him, and stood up.

When he held the hilt of this ancient weapon, he was instantly surrounded by a gentle breath and almost invisible flames, and the originally slightly cold air was directly dispelled, replaced by a pleasant warmth.

These are the "Guardian of Flame" that can endure the environment and the "Dance of Flame Wind" that improves the agility attribute among the ancient abilities.

"It's only a demon soul that can raise you to legendary quality." Looking at the sword in his hand, Thorn was silent for a long time, and whispered to himself again.

For Thorne, there are two ways to obtain demon souls.

The first is to go to the bottomless abyss alone, which is the base camp of demons, and no matter what kind of demons can be found there.

However, the premise is that you need to have enough strength to fight against the demon lord.

The second method is much simpler, and that is to go to the endless wilderness in the east of the continent, which is the only way to the Karatu continent.

Because the endless wilderness was the main battlefield of the abyssal demons during the catastrophe of the year of turmoil, there are still cracks in the bottomless abyss in that place, and countless demons breed.

That kind of place is indeed a very good choice for someone like him who wants to rely on killing demons to quickly increase the power of demons.

It can also be regarded as a direction for his future efforts. As the main battlefield of the main material plane to fight against demons, Thorne believes that there are definitely many talents who are good at dealing with and researching demons in that kind of place.

However, he still can't leave now, at least he will not consider going until the entire territory of the Emerald Field is stabilized.

Thorn stared at the desert wind in his hand for a long time and thought for a long time, finally put it in the scabbard gently, and then pulled out another weapon.

steel soul
Type: Ancient Weapon

Equipment Requirements: Concentration Level 10, Basic Fortitude Check +3
Ancient Ritual: Acts of Fearlessness (Completed)
Legacy Abilities:

Sword Shadow: When the user's swordsman level reaches level 5 and uses Steel Soul to attack in melee, it will produce an afterimage that confuses the enemy.

Insight: When the user's swordsman reaches level 7 and holds a steel soul, the user's insight increases by 30%.

Armor: When the user reaches level 8 as a kendoer and holds a steel soul, when he is eroded by magic, he can automatically activate "Perfect Spirit", "Ahead of Mind" and "Spiritual Armor" for immunity resistance.

Soul Breaking: When the user swordsman reaches level 9 and hits an enemy with Steel Soul, the target must make a will saving throw. If the target fails the check, it will fall into a short-term stunned state.

(Note: Whenever Steel Soul is pulled out of the scabbard, time seems to slow down, a second will slip away quietly, and it seems to pass in a flash.)
……

With the awakening of the new ancient weapons, it is inevitable that one's physical attributes will be weakened by 1 point, and the health value will be permanently reduced by 10 points.

However, compared to the acquired attributes, this penalty is a bit insignificant.

For Thorn, this new weapon cast in the Underdark has basically taken shape, and it also played its due role in the battle against the hobgoblin.

With a 2-point demon-breaking attribute, when facing those low-level hobgoblin spellcasters, it is simply chopping melons and cutting vegetables. Their confident low-level protective force fields are almost shattered at the touch of a touch.

Without this weapon to help him kill hobgoblin spellcasters quickly, he wouldn't be able to move freely in the hobgoblin camp.

But this sword still has a lot of room for improvement, because its main material is aurora colored steel, so if you want to enchant it, you can only go to the Temple of the Good God.

Now there are two options before Thorne.

That is to ask the Dragonborn paladin for help and take him to the Church of Tyre in Seput City, but I don’t know if this paladin can help him introduce high-level personnel of the church.

Another option is to head to the church of Irmaat, the Suffering God, in Deepstone.

The reason why he chose to go there was mainly because he had a paladin ring, and he believed that with this token, the high-level personnel of the temple should receive him.

As for whether the high-level members of these churches are willing to help, in fact, he has no idea. After all, he has never known each other. If he wants to ask someone for help, the other party will definitely not be so quick to nod in agreement.

For Thorne, it is only a matter of taking one step at a time.

"Desert Wind and Steel Soul, these two weapons will accompany me until I step into the fascinating Legend of Destiny." Thorn looked at the two sharp blades that were basically formed, and whispered to himself.

Immediately afterwards, he looked at the blue sky through the gap between the trees, his eyes gradually became firm.

In the entire multiverse, every Legend of Destiny is a unique existence, not to say that 'Legends' are powerful, but because they are powerful, they are called: Legends!

Thorn didn't know what catastrophe would happen in the future, but he knew very well that in this world, only with strong power can you go further, stand on the peak of the world and look down on the world.

Perhaps some people will say that those who spend their whole lives only pursuing power, resulting in no people and things worth remembering and caring about, what is the use of living for a long time.

But Thorne will refute them, if you don't pursue powerful power, then how can you protect those people and things that are worthy of your concern?
Just like when he watched the lower town of Pushang Town being captured but could do nothing back then, he was still helpless when he watched those comrades who died one by one.

It's been a long time...

Thorn, who came back to his senses, put the weapon in the scabbard, looked around, and found that Sigrit and Lilia were not in sight, so he walked towards the depths of the temple.

Now five days have passed since the battle with the hunters of the hobgoblin. In these few days, besides awakening the ancient ceremony of the steel soul sect, he is practicing his own qi refining technique.

Ever since he entered that wonderful state again in the hobgoblin camp, Thorne found that the progress of the alchemy technique seemed to have increased a bit. Although the increase was very small, he could clearly detect it.

Therefore, he has been using the quiet environment of the Melikai Temple for the past few days to consolidate and comprehend this wonderful practice.

Now that it has been successfully consolidated and the ancient weapons have been awakened, he feels it is time to leave.

As for the hobgoblin camp, he had no intention of going there.

According to the news revealed by Archbishop Rausian, he knew that in addition to the high-level priests, there was a terrifying existence sleeping in the hobgoblin group of Hruk. There is no peace in the forest.

So, he planned to go back to Fallstown today.

Now the hobgoblin Hruk is busy working with the evil lizardmen to conquer the neutral lizardmen in the bottomless swamp. When they have integrated the forces of their allies, it is time to attack the Emerald Field.

In the face of this crisis, all forces in the entire Emerald Field must respond early.
