Chapter 135
Chapter 135 sword of carved tears
Wall-E clutched its iron head. Seeing that it was its master, it hurriedly waved its hands and grabbed his trouser legs, pulling him toward the southeast.
“Slow down, slow down. I know the direction; we don’t need to walk this time.”
Ye Qiyan picked it up and pulled out a Train Coin.
The in-station driving Module activated.
The outside yang yan wind was far too scorching, but with the Ice Pulse Bead, he wasn’t afraid.
However, the moment he touched Wall-E just now, he had perceived that the small robot’s body temperature had already become very high.
There were also quite a few wear marks on its sheet-metal square body.
There was no need to make it continue suffering just to save a few Train Coins.
The whistle roared, and the wheels rolled.
The tracks extended forward.
Arriving at the black forest in the southeast, the Train stopped. Only then did Ye Qiyan release Wall-E, following behind it and advancing in a direction completely opposite to where he had obtained the Red Tears not long ago.
This was his second time coming here.
In the black forest, the yang yan wind echoed within.
“Don’t stray too far from me.”
Keeping Wall-E within a three-meter radius of him, the autonomous defense of the Wandering Star Holy Mark would also incidentally help Wall-E block the outside hot wind.
“Why is that feeling still there?”
Originally, he thought that the Mental Power influence of this forest was related to the Red Tears, but after he got his hands on the Red Tears, the feeling in this forest that made people irritable and belligerent still hadn’t faded.
In other words, this had nothing to do with the Red Tears.
Traveling through the forest for about forty minutes, Wall-E waved its hand and pointed at a rock ahead, or to be precise, a sword stuck in that rock..
“sword in the stone? But why is it red?”
Ye Qiyan raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking of the story of the sword in the stone the moment he saw this scene.
But this probably wasn’t it.
He summoned the Red Tears and Demon Raven.
The Wandering Star Holy Mark activated autonomously.
With the shift in the perspective of Demon Card: Pride, around that sword was an entirely pitch-black skeleton gripping the hilt tightly. Within those empty eye sockets, there seemed to be lingering reluctance.
Ye Qiyan summoned the Red Tear Demon and Demon Raven to climb the giant boulder.
A faint colored flame suddenly reappeared in the eye sockets of that pitch-black skeleton. It trembled as it stood up, and a purple nether flame attacked the two demons.
But this was completely useless.
The Red Tear Demon spread the demonic wings at her waist, and small-scale red raindrops fell from the sky. While extinguishing the flames, the body of the pitch-black skeleton was also easily corroded by it.
The Raven Demon stepped forward and kicked out with a claw, turning the skeleton into bone slag.
The demons cleared the obstacles for Ye Qiyan.
He walked up the giant boulder and took one last glance at the pitch-black skull.
The Raven Demon stomped down hard, and the skull also turned into bone slag.
“An item that can be even more precious than a Devil Card really makes me curious.”
Touch.
System appraisal.
The Light Screen appeared.
[Tears of War (Level 12 → ?)]
[When the hundred-year War came to an end and only one person remained on the battlefield, the young girl’s tears engraved everything into this sword.]
[Only those who comprehend the true meaning of War can pick it up.]
[Consumes Mental Power to plunge an area into a state of War frenzy, which cannot be stopped until the two warring sides completely decide the victor.]
[Collecting the undead that died in the battlefield can release a sword qi no lower than the strongest strike of that War.]
[It is waiting for the most suitable person to pull it out.]
“Level Train Coins What does the question mark afterwards mean?”
If it were merely a Level 12 item, Ye Qiyan wouldn’t think it was necessarily more precious than a card sequence, but adding the question mark at the end made it different.
“Pulling the sword, the true meaning of War? Where am I supposed to know these things?”
Ye Qiyan frowned slightly. This was the first Level 12 item he had ever seen. Although he didn’t know why such a thing would appear in a mere Level 7 Platform, if he couldn’t take it away, he would definitely regret it later.
What should he do? Should he give it a try first?
Hesitating for a moment, Ye Qiyan walked in front of the sword, rolled up his sleeves, reached out, and gripped the hilt.
However, the moment he grasped the hilt,
strong Mental Power influences attempted to interfere with Ye Qiyan.
His Mental Power kept dropping, quickly falling below the mark of 50. If it were anyone else, they would definitely choose to let go and give up, but only Ye Qiyan wouldn’t.
Illusory scenery replaced the surroundings.
Shouts of killing, severed limbs and broken arms, corpses piling up…
He seemed to have returned to a real battlefield, but Ye Qiyan was also very clear that these were all fake.
[Mental Power: 41 (Witnessing Truth and Falsehood)]
[Negative effect: tear carver?!]
His Mental Power was being influenced, though it didn’t matter to Ye Qiyan.
That Purple-Heart Fog Orb obtained not long ago flowed out from his backpack.
Fog shrouded the area, and all feelings related to War disappeared.
“Does rashly pulling the sword affect Mental Power? Well, it’s not too bad.”
Ye Qiyan silently withdrew his hand, looking at the sword that still existed in the stone without the slightest change, and frowned.
He could have continued trying just now; the reason he took out the orb was simply because he didn’t want his Mental Power to drop too low externally.
“I can’t take it out. How about trying to smash this rock and see?”
He had Demon Raven try it, but it didn’t succeed.
This giant boulder was likewise influenced by the sword’s power.
Wanting to destroy it was no different in difficulty from pulling the sword.
When all was said and done, what messy true meaning of War? Everyone’s thoughts on this kind of thing were different; how could there be anything absolute… Hmm?
Suddenly, he realized something.
His gaze shifted to look at the Red Tear Demon quietly standing to the side.
If you think about it, wasn’t the power of Devil Card – Red Tears related to War?
If one had to say who understood War the most here, with Red Tears in second, no one could claim to be first.
Therefore, besides her, who else could possibly pull out this sword?
Fan Huo who possessed the War card sequence? That chain-smoker wasn’t here.
He manipulated the Red Tear Demon to come before the sword.
A fair palm grasped the hilt.
With just a gentle exertion of force, the Tears of War were pulled out effortlessly.
The originally indestructible giant boulder also instantly turned into fine powder and violently burst apart.
“Ahem… It’s that simple?”
Amidst the lime turned from the giant boulder,
the Demon Raven flapped its wings, purifying the surrounding air.
The Red Tear Demon held the War Manifestation while maintaining the pulling posture.
Red radiance emanated outward from the sword body.
In the sky, even under this Yang Yan Storm weather, it couldn’t be stopped—a torrential red rain enshrouded the entire Ancient Battlefield ruins within it.
The Red Tear Demon silently walked in front of him, presenting the sword in her hand to her master.
“It actually worked, and moreover, the name has changed too?”
[War Manifestation → sword of carved tears (Level 13)]
Level Devil Card
The same level as the Hunting Mechadragon that had activated Transcendent Mode.
No wonder this thing was judged to be even more precious than a Devil Card. So that was how it was.
