Chapter 13: Lightning Berserk Dragon Bloodline

The defense of the earth drake was too strong. Ning Shi’s physique was as high as 29 points, and he had a purple violent talent that increased his strength by four times. His swordsmanship damage was increased by two times, and only then was he able to cut through its scales.

If it was anyone else, they would have to take a detour when they encountered the earth drake, and they would not be able to break through its defense at all.

[You have killed an earth drake. Experience points +400. Obtained one portion of the earth drake bloodline.]

F*ck! He was in luck! He had killed an earth drake and obtained a bloodline!

Ning Shi was ecstatic. Unfortunately, his potential points were now zero, so he could not synthesize a bloodline.

He continued farming monsters to level up.

He continued farming until 11 p.m. Finally, the sound of a notification came.

[Bloodline warrior level has been raised to Level 6 (0/80,000). Physique +1, skill point +1, potential point +1.]

When his physique reached 30, it was like entering a certain critical point. Ning Shi felt that his physique had increased greatly. Compared to before, it had more than doubled.

If he were to hunt the earth drake now, it would be very easy.

When a bloodline warrior reached Level 6, the experience points of an intermediate magical beast dropped to 300. It was too difficult to double the experience points of leveling up.

Ning Shi picked up the black sword on the ground and rolled up the blade. The sword could no longer be used.

Without the sword, it would be even slower to kill monsters with just his fists.

“Let’s go back to Duohuang to resupply.”

Ning Shi gave the system the order to log out and return to the city. He logged out of the game to have a meal and closed his eyes to rest.

Two hours later, he entered the game again. His avatar had returned to Duohuang.

It was already one o’clock in the morning. He stood on the hillside outside of Duohuang City and looked down at Duohuang City. It was still brightly lit and extremely lively.

Duohuang City did not have city walls. The entire city was centered around the Duohuang Chamber of Commerce Square. It was in a circular shape and radiated outwards. It formed a three-layer circle with a total of 118 streets.

The average number of people living on one street was around 3000 to 5000 people. The entire city had a population of about 500,000. On the Moen Continent, it was a large city that lived up to its name.

Duohuang was surrounded by various tribes and human villages. These scattered populations added up to over a million people.

Whether it was in terms of population or geographical location, Duohuang was a place with great potential for development. The Brad Empire, the Ole Empire and the Elven Empire all wanted this piece of land. The three sides were in a stalemate, resulting in this piece of land becoming a chaotic land with no owner.

There were four large factions in Duohuang: The Brad Bloodline Chamber of Commerce, the Griffin Chamber of Commerce, the Forest Night Song Chamber of Commerce and the Mercenary Alliance. Supporting the first three factions were the three empires. The Mercenary Alliance was an organization formed by local adventurers to protect their own interests.

Each of the four factions occupied 10 streets.

The rest of the streets were occupied by large and small chambers of commerce and organizations. All the factions that occupied the streets had to join the Duohuang Chamber of Commerce. Every time there was a fight among the factions and it affected the conduct of trade, the Duohuang Chamber of Commerce would step in to mediate.

The three factions, together with Duohuang Chamber of Commerce as the mediator, barely maintained the fragile balance of Duohuang.

Ning Shi found a bloodline shop and sold the surplus magic cores and magical beast carcasses on his body. He received 1400 gold coins. Among them, the most valuable were the magic cores of intermediate magical beasts. Each one was worth 100 gold coins.

When he came to the blacksmith shop of the dwarf Giggs, he found that it was already closed.

Dong Dong Dong!

Ning Shi directly knocked on the door.

“Who is it? It’s closed. Come back tomorrow!”

Dong Dong Dong!

“Motherf*cker, where did this country bumpkin come from? How dare he disturb my sleep? By the true God Redding, I, Giggs, will smash this country bumpkin’s head with my hammer today!”

With a creak, the door was opened.

Giggs stood at the door with an angry face. He was holding a huge iron hammer in his hand. The surface of the iron hammer was covered with purplish-black light, which was unique to meteoric weapons.

This hammer weighed more than a thousand pounds, so Giggs easily held it in his hand. Giggs must have some skills to dare to open a blacksmith shop in the wilderness.

Ning Shi ignored Giggs’ anger and directly walked into the blacksmith shop. He threw the black sword on the ground and said, “Master Giggs, is this the meteoric weapon you were bragging about? It only took a few days for the sword to be rolled up, so I had to return to the city from the wilderness ahead of time.”

The originally aggressive Giggs immediately restrained his anger when he saw the damaged black sword on the ground. He picked up the black sword, observed it for a while and shook his head.

“There’s no problem with the quality of this black sword. I sold the sword to you for 15 gold coins and it was a fair price. The blade had curled up earlier and it was caused by your improper use.”

Ning Shi did not bother with the black sword anymore. He walked around the shop and did not find any good stuff. He knew that all the good stuff had been hidden by Giggs.

Pa! A bag of gold coins was thrown on the table.

“Here are 200 gold coins. I want a real meteoric battle blade of the same quality as your battle hammer.”

Giggs quickly grabbed the money bag and took out the gold coins to count them. After counting them, his eyes, which were originally wide open, unconsciously narrowed.

His beard was too thick, covering half of his face. The expression on the corner of his mouth could not be seen. He could only be judged by his eyes. At this time, he was smiling very happily.

“What? Didn’t you want to smash my head with a hammer? I’m looking forward to it.”

Hearing Ning Shi’s teasing, Giggs laughed and took a sip of the dark beer in the cabinet to cover up his embarrassment.

“Follow me!”

Giggs opened a curtain and walked into the inner room, with Ning Shi following behind.

The weapons here were emitting different lights. They were obviously high-quality goods, much better than what they looked like outside, but they still did not meet Ning Shi’s requirements.

Giggs did not stop. He lifted a piece of wood on the floor of the inner room, revealing a hole. With a whoosh, he slid down.

Ning Shi did not follow him this time. Firstly, he had to be careful. He did not know if there was any danger down there. Secondly, the hole was designed for dwarves. It was very narrow, so Ning Shi could not enter.

After five minutes, Giggs came out of the hole and took out a two-meter-long, one-foot-wide super large sword.

The hilt of the sword was half a meter long, and the body of the sword was one and a half meters long. Apart from the sword’s width, the body of the sword was extremely thick and the back of the sword was ten centimeters thick.

The blade was not as thin as a Cicada’s wings. It was extremely sharp and the blade was one centimeter thick.

The entire sword emitted a purplish-black glow. It was indeed a meteoric weapon.

Apart from its exaggerated length and thickness, the sword looked plain and unadorned. The hilt and the body of the sword were one, and there was not even a single pattern on it.

Giggs was out of character. He did not boast about his own weapon, hoping to sell it for a good price. He looked at Ning Shi without saying a word as if he was scrutinizing him.

Ning Shi picked up the long blade and the system’s notification came.

[Meteoric heavy sword, weighing 99 kilograms. It is an exquisite and superb sword, has room for growth and is a priceless treasure. Reference price: 1000 gold coins.]

Ning Shi nodded in satisfaction. “I like this sword very much. Name a price, I’ll take it.”

Seeing that Ning Shi was someone who knew what was good for him, Giggs said, “A good sword can only be sold to those who are fated to have it! This sword is my grandfather Engel’s masterpiece. It was just a little bit away from becoming a bloodline weapon.”

A hint of regret flashed across Giggs’ eyes. “This sword was forged using a special technique. It hammered meteoric iron and more than a dozen other metals together. The entire sword was integrated into one body, maximizing the characteristics of this sword.”

Ning Shi continued, “Weight and hardness? Such a heavy sword is indeed not suitable for sharpening.”

One had to know that when a sword killed an enemy, the sword itself also suffered from wear and tear. If the blade was too thin, it would not be able to withstand a few blows.

Giggs nodded slowly. “Once this sword is brandished, the wind it brings with it can kill the enemy. Although it is not sharpened, it can still cut off the enemy’s body.”

“How much?”

“2000 gold coins! Not a single coin less.” Giggs was full of confidence as if this sword was a popular item.

“How long has this sword been in your secret room? 10 years? 20 years?”

“How many people have you recommended this sword to? 100? 200?”

“Your grandfather’s works might never meet a fated person, right?”

Every time Ning Shi raised a question, Giggs’ face turned uglier. The unique shape and weight of this sword were only suitable for people like Ning Shi who had great strength. Ordinary people would not be able to use it.

Finally, Giggs said with a gloomy face, “I won’t hide it from you. This sword really can’t be sold. It takes up space in the warehouse. 500 gold coins, take it or leave it.”

Ning Shi didn’t say anything. He took out another bag of gold coins and threw it to the dwarf boss. Then he took the meteoric heavy sword and left the blacksmith shop.

After making a loss, Giggs didn’t look too good. He took the bag and found that the weight wasn’t right.

He quickly opened it and counted. There were 800 gold coins in total. Including the 200 gold coins he received before, Ning Shi paid a total of 1000 gold coins for this sword.

Giggs smiled and happily closed the door. He went to the bed to count the gold coins.

The reason why Ning Shi gave 1000 gold coins was partly that he recognized the value of this sword and did not want this treasure to be buried in some corner. On the other hand, he also wanted to befriend this dwarf.

He estimated that he would have to stay in Duohuang for some time. In the future, he would have to deal with blacksmiths.

Even if he spent 1000 gold coins to buy this sword, Ning Shi still made a lot of money. The system had noted that this sword could grow, and it was a priceless treasure.

Ning Shi went to the shop to buy some potions and food. Then, he left Duohuang City and continued to farm monsters in the wild to level up.

After farming monsters for three whole days, Ning Shi had accumulated 80,000 experience points.

[Bloodline warrior levelled up to Level 7 (0/160,000), physique +1, skill point +1, potential point +1.]

He had accumulated 2 potential points, time for bloodline synthesis!

[Consumed 2 potential points, lightning violent bear bloodline fused with earth drake bloodline, lightning berserk dragon bloodline, potential 10 stars. Regeneration talent leveled up to purple. Acquired new talent: Draconic might (blue), draconic body (blue).]

[Regeneration (purple): Extremely fast recovery of injuries, limb regrowth.]

[Draconic might (blue): Causes a certain degree of intimidation to non-draconic bloodlines.]

[Draconic body (blue): Physique increased by 50%.]

Lightning berserk dragon bloodline!

Bloodline potential reached 10 stars, directly maxing out!

The key was the talent of his draconic body, which increased his physique by 50%. Ning Shi’s physique had now reached 31 points, and after the increase, his stats had increased to 33 points. (The growth of physique stats is nonlinear. In the later stages, every increase of 1 point will have a great effect.)

Ning Shi felt that his current physique was probably even stronger than that of a giant dragon.

After a burst of joy, looking at the experience points that had doubled again, the corner of Ning Shi’s mouth twitched. Now, he could only obtain 200 experience points from killing intermediate magical beasts…

The speed of killing monsters and leveling up was getting slower and slower.

After wandering around Duohuang City a few times, there was still no mission. Ning Shi estimated that after leaving the novice village, this game would no longer issue missions.

Without a mission and there were no traces of advanced magical beasts, Ning Shi could only helplessly level up by killing intermediate magical beasts.
