#311 - Chapter 311: The Snow Monster Guarding the Mountain, the Second of the Seven Swords
“Lottery!”
A ball of orange-red flame, about the size of a hamster, appeared above Qi Jing's palm.
Hope Fire Seed: Place it in a land of death, and hope will ignite from it.
This introduction is quite mysterious.
I don't know if it's useful or not.
Qi Jing put it in the "possibly useful things" area of the space.
But it's better not to use it. A land of death doesn't sound like a good place.
“Lottery!”
This time it's a big one!
Qi Jing quickly retracted his outstretched arm.
A lump of white snow suddenly appeared in front of them.
No, it has limbs and a head. It's a snowman!
Qi Jing thought it was just an ordinary, ugly snowman lying here motionless, but after sensing the information, he didn't think so.
Mountain Guardian Snow Monster: A snow monster puppet created from ice and snow elements; a non-living entity; can restore its state by eating snow; only acts in snowy or icy environments.
A top-notch tool puppet!
Anything that can self-recover is a good thing!
But it can only move on snowy days, which is a bit limiting.
After hearing the introduction of this snow monster, Song Jiang leaned over and asked:
“Can my snow cloud awaken it?”
“Good idea, try it quickly.” Qi Jing didn't expect this.
How can partial snowfall not be considered a snowy day?
Song Jiang pulled the cloud that had been floating behind him to the front, and then controlled it to fly above the snow monster, enlarging it and starting to snow lightly.
Yan Cheng asked with a skeptical attitude:
“Is this little bit of snow enough?”
“If this little bit of snow doesn't count, then even more snow won't be enough.”
After all, the activation condition of this snow monster puppet is a snowy day, not an area rich in snow. That is to say, as long as it is snowing, it can be activated.
Moreover, the rate of origin power consumption of this snow cloud is now at the point where Song Jiang can just achieve a balance of origin power income and expenditure.
If it were any bigger, his origin power would be insufficient.
“It moved!”
Under everyone's gaze, the snow monster, which had been lying on the ground, slowly stood up.
After it straightened its body, Yan Cheng realized that its appearance was similar to that of a gorilla. When it was lying here just now, he thought it was a large stone man.
“Dance.”
Hearing Qi Jing's command, the snow monster raised its hands expressionlessly and began to hop stiffly.
So ugly.
Although it is white, its appearance is really not good-looking, and its dance is really awkward.
It seems that the saying "whiteness covers a hundred flaws" does not apply to snow monsters.
Seeing it being so funny, Yan Cheng also shouted to it:
“Horse stance!”
But the snow monster didn't seem to hear Yan Cheng's words and continued to dance on its own.
So this snow monster only listens to me, Qi Jing thought.
So he ordered the snow monster:
“Listen to him.”
Let's test its intelligence.
After receiving Qi Jing's authorization, Yan Cheng changed the command:
“Handstand!”
Sure enough, this time the snow monster heard Yan Cheng's words as if it had heard Qi Jing's command, immediately grabbed the ground with both hands, and then used its arms, which were stronger than its legs, to support itself upside down.
Cen Xi looked at the snow monster that had been extracted from her and always felt that it was a bit weak:
“Let it punch me and see.”
The only way to test the truth is to get real.
Qi Jing nodded: “Yes, hit her!”
Hearing the order, the snow monster immediately used its handstand arms as springs, and with a pounce, it kicked fiercely towards Cen Xi.
fong!
The whistling fist wind blew the corners of Cen Xi's clothes, but the snow monster's fist could not shake her even half a step.
Seeing that the target in front of it had caught its fist, the snow monster was not discouraged. It directly withdrew and made a big turn in the air, kicking out with one foot.
Then it frantically used various parts of its body to attack her, fists, elbows, foreheads, calves, knees...
But Cen Xi was still like an immovable mountain. Whether the snow monster punched or kicked, it was like an ant shaking a tree, causing no harm.
Qi Jing, who was standing aside, was almost cooled by its fist wind.
“Stop moving.”
Upon receiving the order, the snow monster stopped directly in front of Cen Xi, still maintaining its punching posture.
Cen Xi commented:
“The hardness of the fist is similar to that of a standard broadsword, and the speed is also acceptable. The main thing is that it is not afraid of death.”
Hearing such an evaluation, Qi Jing felt that this lottery was not a loss.
After all, getting a "not bad" evaluation from Cen Xi is already considered great for them.
It's just that the "snowy day" condition can only hand it over to Song Jiang to use.
After putting it into the space, Qi Jing continued to draw the lottery:
“Lottery!”
Eight small blue flames without temperature appeared in Qi Jing's palm, looking a bit like a lighter flame.
It won't be something as mysterious as the Hope Fire, will it?
Sense it.
Ghost Fire × 8: When using moves that consume origin power, you can consume ghost fire to replace it. The number of consumed increases according to the required origin power, with a maximum of 4.
Four ghost fires equal a tube of origin power.
Not bad, not bad.
If I consume all the ghost fire, I can use the Blast Flame Art with 30% origin power.
I wonder if I can blow up an island like that?
It should be possible when the total amount of origin power increases in the future, but it is temporarily impossible now.
“Lottery!”
Golden Silk Nanmu Coffin: Can preserve corpses for an unlimited time after loading them.
This kind of wood is really good-looking, but why is it a coffin? It's not as good as a table.
Quickly put it away.
“Lottery!”
Oh ho ho?
Finally, it's not a physical object!
Let's see what skill it is.
Bestowed Lord True Form: After use, strengthens your next ice-type move, cannot be stacked.
Ice-type moves?
Do I have ice-type moves?
That's right, I have an Ice Heart Technique.
Then using Bestowed Lord True Form should make the ice harder, okay, it's not a wasted draw.
It's a pity that there are no other ice-type skills. No matter how strong passive defense is, it can't be counted as combat power.
“Lottery!”
Come on, an ice-type skill! Elemental God!
Ten Gold Bricks: Ten gold bricks.
Good... simple and luxurious gold element.
Again.
“Lottery!”
Self-Rotating Fan: Each activation will automatically rotate the fan head to change the blowing direction.
Looking at this fan with a power cord, Qi Jing supported his forehead.
This name, I thought it was a fan that didn't consume electricity, but I didn't expect it to be a non-fixed fan.
What's the use of it!
Trash.
“Lottery!”
Thundering Flash Sword: One of the Seven Swords; a one-handed longsword with a thick blade and a compelling cold light. Once unsheathed, it will cause a thunderclap in clear skies, deafening; can amplify sword energy and give it lightning attributes. If the move itself is a lightning attribute, it will be amplified. If the Thundering Flash Heart Technique is used to activate it, the amplification will be maximized; when the Seven Swords are together, the move "Seven Swords Combination" can be used.
Wow ka ka!
Two out of seven!
Can this sword attract a good teammate as strong as Han Yinuo Senior?
According to the amplification of the Ice Soul Sword, it can at least strengthen a lightning-type ability user by 50% of their strength. There should also be many lightning-type ability users who are interested in this.
As for using it myself, Qi Jing really didn't think about it.
One is because I don't have lightning-type moves, and the other is because its hardness is really not as strong as the Umbrella Sword. Besides, I still have to upgrade the Umbrella Sword, so I won't be able to use it even more at that time.
Let's store it first.
“Lottery!”
No physical object, it's a skill!
