Chapter 181: 123: Avalon Treasury (Vote for Recommendation, Monthly Ticket Please)_3
“…”
Bailuo shook his head helplessly and thought to himself that there truly were no shortcuts to the power of Miracle.
If there were, then you surely hadn’t seen the cost.
“It seems we need to admonish them,” Uncle suggested, “to measure their strengths and not rely too heavily on the power of treasures. Engage enemies only as strong as one’s ability allows.”
“Hmm.”
Bailuo accepted Uncle’s advice: “I’ll inform them about this when I return.”
“The Treasury, is this the only level?”
Bailuo seemed to see another gate in the distance: “Over there…”
“That is the gate to the second level.”
The senior sister said, “With my current strength, I can only open up to the fourth level.”
“Directly to the fourth level?”
Afterward, the two of them followed their senior sister down to the second, third, and fourth levels of the Treasury and discovered that the quantity of equipment was incomparable to the first level.
The second level held only 20 sets, and the third even fewer, with just 4 pieces.
Indeed, starting from the third level, the equipment was no longer counted in sets but rather as individual ‘pieces.’
The final fourth level had even fewer than the third, with only two treasures laid out.
However, compared to the treasures from before, the six items on the third and fourth levels really made Bailuo feel as if he had walked from a small convenience store into a large shopping mall.
Heroic-level weapons, each placed upon four separate platforms.
Master-level was even more exaggerated; not only were there weapons, but they were accompanied by magical illusions that dazzled and astounded the onlooker.
“The second level produces 20 sets every month.”
“The third level takes three months, and the fourth level requires half a year.”
Calculated annually, the first level could yield 1200 pieces of armament, the second level 240 sets, the third level 16 pieces, and the fourth level only 4 pieces.
The disparity was indeed significant.
Subsequently, after Bailuo and his senior sister had tried all of the armaments here, they found that this ratio was reasonable.
“The first level is Extraordinary Armament; once acknowledged by it, and with rigorous training to awaken the inner Power of Avalon, one could become an Extraordinary Troop Type.”
“The second level is Transcendent, third is Heroic Level, and the fourth is Master Level.”
With an annual output of 4 Master Level treasures and 16 Heroic Level treasures, such a stable production made even Uncle laugh out loud.
Regrettably, the three of them were soon doused with a bucket of cold water.
That was because the production of the Avalon Treasury was not infinite but had a particularly awkward limitation.
“Production continues only when an owner is found?”
What did this sentence mean?
In simple terms, although two sets of Master Class could be produced every six months,
if within that half-year, no one was recognized by the two sets of Master Level treasures,
then sadly, at the time of the next production half-year later, there would be no new treasures.
That’s right!
There was a ‘slot-holding’ setup in the Avalon Treasury!
If you haven’t used up the previous treasures, consuming only half, then it would only replenish that half, and it would never exceed that by even one piece.
“…”
Bailuo scratched his head, while Uncle stated, “Miracles are based on people; without them, its power is limited.”
“Moreover, those higher-level treasures,” the senior sister said, “cannot even be picked up if one’s strength is insufficient.”
Uncle could still lift Transcendent-level treasures.
However, upon wearing them, not only was there no effect, but their excessive weight also greatly reduced his strength.
Bailuo and his senior sister, though, could use them, but their situation was quite special and not counted among Miracle Troop Types.
Furthermore, if Transcendent was thus, let alone Heroic and Master Levels.
Within the Heroic Level was a treasure known as the ‘Dragon Crown Vermilion Halberd’; one end was forged into a dragon head-shaped vermillion halberd blade, and the other was made from six vermillion crystals stacked into a diamond shape that could be used for combat on both ends.
The vermillion lava-like platform was akin to a throne, surging with terrifying dragon’s breath; faintly, the three of them could even hear the sound of a dragon’s roar.
[Dragon Crown Vermilion Halberd]
Level: Heroic
Description: Once slayed a Red Dragon, forged from its spine and heart; contains the Red Dragon’s fury; those without a resolute will should not touch it carelessly
“Such a fierce weapon…”
Bailuo extended his hand, and even he could feel the ferocity and impatience of the weapon.
But soon, as if it recognized Bailuo’s identity, the Dragon Crown Vermilion Halberd dared not act rashly, and the flame-like dragon’s breath actively avoided him, careful not to offend Bailuo.
“It wouldn’t dare to be fierce with you.”
After the senior sister spoke, she picked up the Dragon Crown Vermilion Halberd.
“Hoo~~~~”
In that moment, the endless dragon’s breath was contained within it.
Bailuo could feel the Dragon Crown Vermilion Halberd’s Miracle Power merge perfectly with his senior sister.
No matter how fierce it was, in front of the senior sister, it could only be like a cute little kitten, docile and gentle.
Of course, that was just Senior Sister.
When switched to uncle, he couldn’t even lift it.
“No good, it’s too heavy.”
Uncle gave up on the Dragon Crown Vermilion Halberd.
Clearly, unlike Extraordinary and Transcendent suits, Heroic Level weapons have equipment thresholds.
“Fairy Armor is different, anyone can use the blessing spells because they utilize the inherent power of the Fairy Armor itself.”
Uncle analyzed, “In contrast, although the artifacts in this treasury have high thresholds, once surpassed, they greatly amplify the Power of Avalon.”
“Only by meeting their usage requirements can one obtain the formidable Miracle Power.”
Explaining in gaming terms, Bailuo said, “Suppose the Dragon Crown Vermilion Halberd requires 25 points of strength and 22 points of constitution, uncle hasn’t met the standard, so he can’t equip it.”
“Then according to this line of thought…”
Bailuo said, “In our Yatun, how many people can lift Heroic Level treasures?”
Senior Sister: “…”
Uncle: “…”
It’s awkward, very, very awkward.
Although the treasuries have been opened frequently, almost no one in Yatun can use anything from Heroic Level treasuries and Master Level treasuries.
They are meaningless for Senior Sister.
Senior Sister can use any artifact from the treasury, even if it has an owner, she can still replicate an exact duplicate.
This isn’t projection, but an ability exclusive to Senior Sister – Avalon Treasury.
Because essentially, everything in Avalon World is a part of Senior Sister, naturally including all the treasures born in the treasury.
“Avalon is after all just Miracle World, not true Miracle Resource.”
If it were Miracle Resource, there wouldn’t be such limitations, uncle said, “But having such power, we should be content.”
“Furthermore, we also have Lilith, who can easily bless the People of Yatun, thereby improving their qualities and indirectly reducing the requirements for the treasures.”
The treasures of Avalon are obviously on a higher level than Lilith’s Fairy Blessing.
Of course, the two do not conflict.
So as long as the inscriptions on the artifacts can improve the qualities of the People of Yatun, they will get closer to meeting the equipment conditions.
“Is that possible?”
Bailuo immediately summoned Lilith and handed over a set of Bright Light Infantry Armor to her, asking her to try inscribing blessings on it.
“Yes!”
Lilith tried, and found that the Bright Light Infantry Armor was highly compatible with Fairy Power.
“Ideal Coast…”
Bailuo thought of the affiliation of the Lilith and Senior Sister’s factions, both belonging to Ideal Coast.
“Master, this one, this one is rather difficult.”
After Lilith inscribed the Bright Light Infantry Armor, she encountered some trouble with the [Transcendent: Radiant Helmet].
“Is it not possible?”
“It is possible.”
Lilith examined the exceedingly beautiful helmet and the adjacent Radiant Light Armor, and boots.
“But it needs time.”
The Transcendent treasures truly lived up to their name; even inscribing Fairy Blessings on them wasn’t the same as with Extraordinary Level items.
“How long?”
“I’m not very skilled at it currently. For all parts of the entire suit to be inscribed with blessing spells,” Lilith said, “I estimate, it would take at least 6 hours or more.”
Lilith’s skill in creating magic tools was very high, and her mana was infinite, but inscribing the Radiant Helmet with blessing spells wasn’t challenging in terms of mana, rather, it required precise operation.
“We could have Elsa and the others come over.”
“They can do it too?”
“Yes.”
Lilith: “It’s not an extremely difficult task, just very intricate.”
“Having them inscribe spells, while I perform the final casting, would make it much, much more efficient!”
20 Transcendent sets, 100 Extraordinary sets.
Resolving all of them, if Lilith were the only one working, even working nonstop, it would take seven to eight days.
But 80% of that workload consists of extremely minute Mana Threads and circuits.
They’re not particularly challenging, just requiring careful attention.
Lilith’s Omnipotent Fairy Tale Magic, in terms of self-production, that is, releasing magic to perform magic, could be contradictory.
What does that mean?
That is, the inscription of the array itself consumes mana, and using magic to accomplish work that itself is magical can be problematic.
Therefore, this part of the work must be independent.
Leaving it to Little Witches might not work, but for Regular Witches, it’s part of their foundation courses.
I mean, which witch doesn’t know how to draw a Ritual Array?
This is compulsory, right?!
