"What kind of writing is this?" This ti it was disha's turn to ask.
"Ancient language, 'He who holds this sword is the rightful master of the earth'—" Brand answered most peculiarly in his heart.
"My Lord, you can read the ancient language?" This surprised the little Silver Elf girl, and even Otarais was taken aback.
Ancient language was rumored to be a language from before the ancient tis, even older than the history of the Dragon of Twilight—in other words, such background was aningless in previous gas—like distant mountain scenery, it could only be viewed from afar and had no relevance to the era in which players lived.
Brand coughed, realizing his gaffe, and quickly replied, "I ca across so of it in the ancient texts of the Black Tower Wizards, but I suppose the craftsman wizards of Bujia would have more records."
Only then did disha nod, though Otarais cast a skeptical glance at him.
Brand, feeling guilty, did not look at the two of them but eagerly went to check the attributes of the Earth Sword. Although he had heard of the sword's renown before, he had never had the opportunity to acquire such a thing—as a Level 45 Fantasy Longsword, its price was astronomically high in its era, sothing Brand could not have even dread of.
Despite being ntally prepared, he couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the attributes:
Earth Sword, Harangeya
[Gold]
34-42 (Hardness/Sharpness)
22 Strength, 17 Dexterity, 20 Constitution
Additional Skills:
Earthquake: Automatically casts Rock Tooth Thrust once in the direction of the wielder's attack (strength depends on the wielder's strength).
Elental Lord: The wielder can summon six Obsidian Leopards to fight for them.
Stone Nest: Consus (Gray Crystal), generates one Rock Leopard per day (holds 10/300, can autonomously enable/disable this ability).
(Nest Upgrade—Obsidian Leopard, requires materials: Magic Black Crystal, Stone Key, Sage Stone Tablet, Amber X6)
Brand couldn't help but shout "Holy shit" three tis in his heart. First of all, the 34-42 damage surpassed other weapons of the sa level by a mile; it seed the Earth Sword indeed had attack bonuses, because even Longswords of the sa Fantasy Level had at least one-third less damage.
Next, though Brand was already aware of the Earthquake and Elental Lord skills, the Stone Nest attribute left him stunned—the only thought that filled his mind at that mont was:
Mobile Nest.
Everyone knew that in the Vorn World, there were all sorts of nests. So equipnt could even periodically generate magic creatures. Such things were terd mobile nests by players—though Brand had seen similar things before, the ring on his hand was one such item.
However, the Wind Queen's Ring was clearly far superior. Embedding nest rules into magic equipnt to grant it Sacred Land attributes was evidently far more difficult. Yet what truly shocked Brand was that this nest could be upgraded!
Generally, a primitive nest could be upgraded twice, and even though this Stone Nest had already been upgraded once, the next level's Obsidian Leopards would at least possess the strength of Black Iron Peak. If he could control this thing for a year, wouldn't he have at least three hundred Black Iron Peak creatures at his command?
And what if this nest was still in its original state?
What if this was a special nest that could be upgraded beyond two levels?
The re thought made Brand incredibly excited, even causing his mouth to twitch slightly. But then he quickly had a new worry—it wasn't easy to upgrade this thing. The Magic Black Crystal was still fine, with Alchemy Master Tama around, Brand wasn't concerned about producing it.
The raw materials for that were rely Black Crystal and Magic Essence, both of which were easy to obtain.
However, the Sage Stone Tablet was sothing that made Brand anxious just looking at it; the adventure at Chablis had already given him a psychological shadow. But at least this item was available on the market, and he might soon have to visit Ambeser—acquiring a Sage Stone Tablet in that bustling free trade port shouldn't be too difficult.
The last two items were the real problem.
Amber was a regulated item in any country, and it was a source of magic power. This item actually had two nas. The lesser form was called Sor, while only the purest ore was called Amber. Brand thought that even for Antitina's Magic Workshop, he could only try to secretly obtain so Sor, which was already difficult. So how was he going to get this Amber?
