Chapter 2089: Chapter 2084: Slaughter Talisman
Considering the theme of this mission, if the final reward is an "Amulet," it seems quite reasonable.
Or perhaps some Soul Device, Life Protection Box, Resurrection Cross... In short, something that helps fend off lethal damage or simply adds a resurrection chance, in line with the theme of invulnerability.
But instead, a "Slaughter Talisman"?
This kind of ambiguous style is indeed peculiar.
[Name: Slaughter Talisman]
[Type: Consumable]
[An ownerless talisman, new, fragile, yet pure because of it.
It won’t offer protection when you’re in danger but is meant to be used when you wish to create danger.
Crush it deliberately, and any harm you cause afterward will have absolute independence. Regardless of glory or ruin, it won’t reflect back on you. Duration: one minute.]
[Note: Those who once yearned for this outcome did not realize the essence of armor and weapons is the same.]
...
Uh... it’s truly new and fragile.
Quickly confirming the last reward information, at that moment, Fu Qian glanced at the item in hand with a face that expressed no surprise.
It’s half the size of a palm, flat, oval, and indeed resembles the talismans seen before—more like the souvenirs just encountered.
It’s almost the "Invulnerable" seen everywhere in Lan Fyla.
It looks like glass, as new as can be, with a blue ring in the middle smoothly outlining three concentric circles.
But the effect is quite different, even opposite to the name.
It doesn’t fend off danger—it’s used when creating danger...
It’s a bit abstract, but understanding it in context means after crushing it, whatever you do won’t accumulate "karma barrier"?
From the scenes previously viewed from the perspective of the "Third Cause" owner, it means when committing wrongs, it’s equivalent to having an objective independent third party bear the cause and effect, freeing oneself?
It must be said it’s quite unique, also somewhat in line with my low-key style—
Of course, Fu Qian wouldn’t interpret it as using it to attack someone and the target not knowing who did it; it’s obviously a more abstract low profile.
Even though "karma barrier" seems somewhat ethereal, just a bit of thought makes it easy to find a ready example—Jian San Que Yi.
The latter’s healing effect can be considered a different kind of "self-feedback."
And if the reading comprehension isn’t wrong, after using this and then slashing someone with that sword, even if damage is done, it won’t heal oneself.
So it’s a negative effect—not at all.
Although there aren’t many intuitive cases like this, Fu Qian doesn’t think they all are as friendly as Jian San Que Yi.
So though it’s not generous enough to grant myself authority directly, at the right moment, this could have miraculous effects.
Also, the final note is quite interesting.
Leaving aside the philosophical musings, who are the "people who once yearned for this outcome"?
This phrase doesn’t seem to refer to tourists casually buying souvenirs. Is the warehouse hinting at something?
Was it what I once speculated, the power behind Gregor?
It’s no wonder this is a place with the warehouse’s marked years of foundation. Such a complex side was witnessed during just a day’s casual wandering.
...
In any case, it’s not a meaningless perfunctory reward, so I accept it.
The "God-Slaying Talisman" flipped nimbly between Fu Qian’s fingers, trying even to find a place to attach a string, showing no dissatisfaction.
Not to mention, this trip to Lan Fyla was quite entertaining.
Diligent guides, a fallen royal, aged Transcendents... In just a small team, many interesting people were encountered.
Of course, reciprocating, my final performance surely left a deep impression and endless speculation on them.
Indeed, at the mission’s end, three people were watching.
Besides Ah Lian and Clara, there was also Mr. Sanhao Sr. in the shadows.
With that individual’s keen senses, even if he didn’t coincidentally encounter it initially, how could he have arrived much later than Ah Lian?
As for knowing someone is watching but still acting so boldly—as acquaintances, gifting Mr. Sanhao Sr. an opportunity isn’t a big deal.
Though this opportunity might only give him more topics for discussion in the club, with no actual use.
As for Night Watchman learning some information?
Aside from whether Leiden still has the enthusiasm to cooperate, that level of confrontation almost entirely controlled by me on the battlefield—even if that rigid lady was watching from behind, what could she deduce?
Not to mention, given Mr. Sanhao Sr.’s style, he’ll likely try to persuade Ah Lian not to report the personnel’s disappearance, which might lead to another rewarding opportunity for her.
As for Clara, whose true name is Fyla Venlan?
It’s believed that during the previous performance, she already received her reward.
Indeed, everything is best arranged.
The only slight regret is judging by the slain situation, a Superior Being’s survival ability is incredibly strong.
Even with a fully claimed blow that annihilated any claims, they surprisingly weren’t completely fallen...
Fu Qian lifted a hand, as the main battlefield just now, even the Mechanical Tyrant’s form wasn’t spared from shattering from the palm outward.
Of course, now it is tenaciously repairing—puff!
Fu Qian directly inserted it into his chest, where a big bloodthirsty mouth was already waiting, swallowing it whole.
No problem, let’s try it again.
Humph, in these few months of military exploits, on the second day I personally dealt with the parasitic offspring of the Evil God, did you think I wouldn’t be prepared for this?
Maintaining the Abandonment King’s ranking poses great pressure to the warehouse. Why do you think it’s not lifted even after coming here?
While the warehouse doesn’t support healing, the odds are it also won’t check for parasites.
...
Never harbor lucky thoughts, this mission settlement reform, apart from self-managing injuries, seems to have encountered additional situations.
The opponent clearly adhered to the Evil God’s self-discipline, leaving a little backup in me.
Unfortunately for Him, although the Extraordinary Perception is gone, this fully Mechanical Ascended body is especially sensitive to such discordant factors.
It was discovered at that moment, and even before the mission summary was finished, Fu Qian had almost confirmed something lurking in his hand.
Of course, this can’t be said to be bad luck for that individual either.
Fu Qian states even if it wasn’t the current situation, with Extraordinary Perception still intact, upon returning I would scrutinize it ten or eight times like last time from the Bone Burial Ground.
[Three Faces]
And this time, there’s even an additional gain; compared to before, the slots in Insight indeed increased.
