Vincent found a Deep Sleep Potion from Dianne's collection of low-level potions and ascended it to a high-grade one…
He then let Belch drink it since Nerissa wanted to imprison him instead of killing him. Well, they can't let him meet the other members of the Creed since Subordination Impulse Potion isn't omnipotent after all. Putting him to sleep is their only option.
With the weird corruption ability, his fellow members of the Creed might find a way to remove the power of the Subordination Impulse without their knowledge. So it is safe to just hide him and send him later to the Eternal Sun Peak.
Of course, before they did that, Vincent asked him to send a message to other squads that they are still waiting for Joran to appear and that they must hurry.
"We have a few more minutes… The two other squads will arrive at the same time. We can't miss this opportunity… Recover your Mana or Energy and silently wait for them in the positions I've mentioned. We no longer have any bullets so our battle plan will change…"
Vincent continued speaking as he laid out his plan based on their abilities.
Once Phoebe showed up, Nerissa would have to deal with her using her Automatons and Luna will support her with her Bloodstone Armament…
"Luna, are you done refining it?" Vincent asked.
Her Bloodstone was filled to the brim a while ago and could no longer absorb any Corruption Energy… She had to refine the contained energy to level up the Bloodstone and it shouldn't take very long.
"Almost done…" Luna muttered and after a few seconds, the Bloodstone Armament in her hands glowed for a brief moment before returning to its normal color.
"It's done…"
"Let me appraise it..." Vincent said as Luna handed the item without question.
[ Bloodstone Armament]
[ Quality: Legendary
Number of Enhancements: 10/10
Durability: 2250/2250
Corruption: 4550
Description: A special stone that can corrupt anything except for the bound user.
Bound to: Luna ( Celestial Number 80 )
Remarks: Special Corruption Attribute found. Durability and Corruption Attributes will be upgraded in every enhancement. The Skill Effects will increase tenfold if used by a Specific Race. ]
[ Skills:
[ Focused Corruption: By spending 1 Corruption Attribute, the user can select 1 target to experience Corruption. ]
[ Stagnation: By spending 1 Corruption Attribute, the selected area will experience Stagnation, a field-type Skill that affects the 30-meter radius of the user. ]
[ Absorb Corruption: By spending 100 units of the user's life energy, the Bloodstone Armament can absorb up to 4,550 units of corruption in the surroundings. ]
"Impressive… It increased by 30 percent…" Vincent muttered after seeing the result.
Luna had actually increased its quality by a lot without the use of Enhancement or Ascension skills. It is still Legendary grade and a +10 item but the Corruption Energy it can release increased by more than a thousand.
Needless to say, the amount it could absorb increased as well.
Vincent returned the item to Luna.
"Work together with Nerissa. Once we dealt with the others, we'll help you." Vincent said.
"I understand…" Luna replied.
After a while, Vincent checked his energy units and confirmed that he still has enough to continue fighting.
[ Pseudo Celestial Energy: 2,300/3,600 ]
Although his energy had decreased by quite a lot, it was still a huge amount if converted to Mana Units. He wasn't worried that it wouldn't be enough since he also has potions that could increase his energy if necessary.
Furthermore, his abilities don't use a lot of energy in the first place. Activating Magic Tools is quite cheap and he only has Tier 1 and Tier 2 techniques that don't consume plenty of energy.
Vincent looked at the surroundings. The area around the portal seems like it was burned by a high-level fire technique. However, it was the power of corruption that did this… The plants, trees, and grass decayed because of the miasma that the squad had released a while ago.
Vincent can only cover it using the trickery of the Formation Art that he is in his possession.
Seeing that no one coming yet, Vincent decided to appraise the items that he collected from Belch's squad.
Although their magic items were in terrible condition because they resisted a rain of bullets, most of them survived in a critical state.
To be specific, the magic tools that were destroyed are those that could release or control the Corruption Energy.
He first grab the leather armor in his inventory and appraised it. Even if it was badly damaged, he can tell that it was once an elegant leather armor.
"Appraise…"
Ding!
[ Appraisal has been successful. ]
[ You have discovered a Damaged Myriad Snake Leather Armor. ]
Vincent then checked the appraisal result…
[ Damaged Myriad Snake Leather Armor ]
[ Quality: Epic
Number of Enhancements: 0/10
Durability: 20/420
Magic Attack Resistance: 100
Physical Attack Resistance: 40
Description: A handcrafted leather armor made of Myriad Snakeskin and refined by Tinkerer Dust.
Remarks: Magic and Physical Attack Resistance found. These attributes and Durability will be upgraded in every successful enhancement. ]
[ Skills
Agility Enhancement ( Passive ): Movement Speed increases by 11% if worn.
Agility Boost ( Active ): In exchange for 40 units of mana, the wearer will temporarily gain the movement enhancement of Myriad Snakes for 30 seconds. Cooldown: 10 minutes. ]
There are five of these items one for each member.
Vincent read the skill and realized that the Formation Art that he placed before was truly helpful. If no Formation Arts are trapping them, they would've certainly fled once they heard the gunshots…
It would be difficult to stop them once they used this Agility Boost.
Repairing magic items wasn't his forte but he can certainly fix this after a successful Enhancement or Ascension.
He didn't appraise the other four Myriad Snake Leather Armor and continued checking the leader's necklace…
The necklace's string was made of black string with a pendant made of wood… It has ancient text marked on it. It looks quite ordinary and cheap.
However, Vincent knows that it wasn't simple…
'Tranquility…' He read the text written on it before appraising the item.
[ Damaged Wooden Necklace of the Chosen ]
pAn,Da-n0v e1,c
Number of Enhancements: 0/10
Durability: 20/210
Mind Attack Resistance: 350
Description: A handcrafted wooden necklace made of Fahran Sandalwood and refined by an Unknown Mystical Ink. It can resist low-level mind attacks and weaken mid-level mind attacks.
Remarks: Mind Attack Resistance found. This attribute and Durability will be upgraded in every successful enhancement. ]
