Chapter 344 Ready The Crimson Crane
Chapter 344 Ready The Crimson Crane
"Alright, I will keep it safe for the time being," Raze said as he moved into the Darkness for a moment and made the cup disappear. How he would use it and when, he didn\'t know. Perhaps a useful trade in the future or maybe even in a dire situation he couldn\'t get out of.
Walking up to the wall, Raze started to do the same trick as he did before to the other magic circle. He was altering it, so the magic wouldn\'t activate and attack. After all was done, with a short pull, the giant egg-shaped object popped out and just like before, he threw it to the ground.
When it crashed onto the floor, inside it, it looked like a dark, almost obsidian rock with small blue crystals on it.
"That\'s Aldantium!" Alba said out loud. "It\'s one of the rarest minerals out there!"
It was clear this was another gold mine, but there didn\'t seem to be a large amount of it.
"Would it be good to make a sword from it?" Raze asked.
"Of course, the top clans in each faction have their weapons made out of this stuff, and even some of the top clans are unable to get their hands on it. You know, if you hand it over, I could look for a blacksmith who could smelt a weapon for you."
Hearing this, it looked like Raze might have a use for the new level 4 power stone he had just obtained. None of the swords at the moment could be enchanted with his 4-star magic; they would simply break.
If he had a powerful sword, it could work. That\'s when another thought came to his mind as well. From his back, he pulled out the Ghost blade and handed it over to Alba.
"If you find a blacksmith, see rather than making a new blade, if they could enhance this one with the mineral. In return, I will continue to make you your special items," Raze requested.
Alba was quick to agree as she nodded her head. She knew Raze had already promised to make each of them weapons, but the items he had created for both Reno and Kizer so far were beyond what she had expected, and as long as they were doing each other favors, she was sure he would work even harder on their items.
\'The effect of the Ghost blade is nice. It enhances its power as I use Demonic Qi into it. As I go higher in the stages, more Qi will be placed in the sword, so if the Ghost blade can be enhanced and then enchanted, it will be able to create powerful strikes with my Qi and magic.
\'I was a bit disappointed when I found that my vault had already been mostly raided, but things are looking up, with an improved sword and items only the top clans have, I\'ll have a chance if I have to go against the academy.\'
Finally, it was time for Raze to burst open the last egg, and he had done so. When he did, a small clang was heard, and a tiny object dropped to the floor. Using his wind magic slightly, he was able to raise the object until he grabbed onto it.
Upon opening it, something strange started to occur; he could see the item. It was a ring, and at that moment, all the other rings that Raze had on his hand were vibrating. They continued to move until they had shattered, leaving a slight mist.
The mist of energy was then absorbed into the ring.
\'This is… I know exactly what this is; I had an item like this myself!\' Raze thought.
It was an item that was highly sought after by mages because it was an evolving item. The ring itself didn\'t have any effects. However, it was able to absorb other rings and combine their effects.
Not only that, but since the other rings were attached to the attributes that Raze held, it meant the effect of the Darkness ring that allowed him to see his attributes was spread across all attributes.
"Now, I can accurately track the strength of all my attributes, and I won\'t have to look stupid by having a large number of rings on my hand."
Just checking, Raze also noticed that the Dark ring effect was still present as well. He would gain a small amount of Mana for each kill that he made.
\'In the future, any rings that I enchant, I can just place it next to this ring, and it will absorb its effects.\'
Out of all the items, they seemed to be somewhat from other worlds and not things Raze knew about in Alterian. All apart from the ring he had now. From what he knew, it was actually a 9-star enchantment that could be performed.
So it was good for him to have it now rather than later, but he wondered why there was a mage\'s item among all of those here.
With all of the items obtained, and Raze saying next to nothing about the last item, all of them had decided to leave the underground area. It was time for them to leave the dimension.
While out of the Dimension Boss location, they started to head back toward the portal. Raze was thinking about staying here for a while until the mages arrived, but he realized that he had already spent a long time away from the others.
Fixteen should have gathered food by now for him, and with his enchanted robe, he could take it all back to give to the others. He didn\'t know how much longer they could hold out, or what he might run into on the way back.
With that, they had decided to say their goodbyes to Plon and his group, who were to exit through the portal first.
"Thank you for helping us out back there; today we have witnessed things I never thought I would see, and because of you, a small dream of mine of meeting the Crimson Crane has come true," Plon bowed, and so did the rest of the girls as they exited through the portal.
While heading back to the city, Plon couldn\'t help but think about what had happened. "He was quite close with the Crimson Crane members; do you think he was a member of them?" Claire asked.
"You might be right about that; maybe he\'s the new demon that people are talking about. Based on what he did, I can certainly see that being the case. Whatever, or whoever he is, I hope we run into him again in the future," Plon stated.
Back in the portal, Raze wanted to say a few words to Alba before they stepped through, as they had met back up with Reno, who was waiting for them.
"The favor that I asked for, about allowing me to take command of the Crimson Crane at least once," Raze asked. "I wanted to let you know that I might have to cash that in soon.
"If you can, ready all of the members of the Crimson Crane by the end of the month." Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
For the Dark Magus to ask the whole clan for a favor, she just wondered what they would be doing, but with how short of a time they had been with the Dark Magus, she knew that it would be beneficial to them regardless.
He was now even more precious to them compared to before.
"We will be ready, and it might be handy if you made a few more items for us before then. By the end of the month, I\'ll have your new sword ready for you as well."
With that all said and done, all of them stepped through the portal ready to head back. When they did, they could see the Behemoth Clan members were still passed out from Reno\'s poison.
He was thankful; before the Dimension Boss appeared, he had to keep stepping in and out, giving them more supply to make sure they were asleep.
When the Dimension Boss was dealt with, though, he was unable to get out.
"I thought I would find you here," a voice said.
Immediately all of them turned their heads.
"It\'s you, right, the Dark Magus?" The voice asked unsure.
"I\'ve been waiting for you; there\'s something I need you to do," Rayna asked, the sister of Dame and one of the main disciples, and bloodline of the Neverfall Clan. One of the stronger Clans in the Demonic Faction.
