Chapter 1080: Vessel of Laws
[System Alert: Your mastery level is too low to appraise this item!
[System Alert: [1] Flaw has been discovered in «Umbral Imp Horn»>![]
[System Alert: Flaw [1]: This creature does not belong to its current world.
Izroth wasted no time using Appraisal and Deep Insight to inspect the Umbral Imp Horn. Unfortunately, Appraisal was still at too low of a mastery rank to inspect a legendary-ranked item. As for Deep Insight, it revealed the same message it did for the Imp of Dreams and the chests.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
After Izroth claimed the Umbral Imp Horn, the remaining chests disappeared.
The Imp of Dreams closed its eyes and appeared to have entered a state of slumber without concern for Izroth's presence.
'No matter how I look at it, it's strange. It's unlike the system to hand out legendary-ranked items with little to no effort involved. Yet, the proof is in my hand. Then, is the reward itself a trap? Can it be a cursed weapon?'
Most cursed weapons in RML were listed as such in their item description; however, that did not mean that all cursed weapons revealed themselves so openly. It could happen when someone picked it up, when they first equipped it, or even a week or month after constant use. Though, for some reason, Izroth did not believe that the item in his hand was a cursed weapon. Even if it escaped his natural perception, Deep Insight, and even his Soul Sense, it could not fool his Apparel of Insatiable Transcendence.
Under normal circumstances, his Apparel of Insatiable Transcendence had no reaction toward weapons. However, when it was a weapon of superb quality like his Sword of the Storm, it showed its desire to consume it.
How could his Apparel of Insatiable Transcendence not show even the slightest bit of interest in a legendary-ranked weapon like the Umbral Imp Horn?
'Should I just try equipping it?'n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Even if the Umbral Imp Horn turned out to be a cursed weapon, it was not as though Izroth had no methods of dealing with it.
Without further delay, Izroth equipped the Umbral Imp Horn. The instant he did so, Izroth felt a powerful sensation flow up through his arm and all throughout his body.
'How interesting.'
Izroth looked down at the Umbral Imp Horn in his hand. With a seamless motion, Izroth's arm flickered about as a strong aura of darkness exploded forth from his position and hundreds of cuts appeared on the walls a couple of meters in front of Izroth.
'It's a good dagger.'
In a blink of an eye, Izroth had slashed and pierced the wall more than a hundred times! The walls filled to the brim with mana were tough; however, the Umbral Imp Horn sliced through it with ease—like a hot knife through butter.
Additionally, Izroth activated the wave of darkness effect of the weapon multiple times within less than half a breath of time. And, thanks to the attack speed restriction being removed, Izroth's attacks seemed to happen simultaneously.
The 7,500 agility and 1,000% attack speed, paired with the agility buffs he received from his Gift of Divine Speed, caused Izroth's agility to reach a frightening degree in its base state.
'As far as I can tell, there is nothing wrong with this dagger. There is still a chance that it's a cursed weapon that is capable of hiding itself deeply, but even if that is the case, it's still powerful enough to justify the potential risk.'
Izroth unequipped the weapon with ease before equipping it once again. The fact that it allowed him to equip and unequip the weapon of his own will was a good sign.
"Typically, high-ranked cursed weapons do not allow you to unequip them once you've taken them up. No matter how I look at it, it's just a good dagger. This kind of legendary-ranked weapon without requirements restrictions—even a level one player could defeat someone 40 to 50 levels above them.' Of course, that level one player could be done in by any random AOE or homing skill of a higher-level player, but that did not make the possibilities any less impressive.
Izroth scanned the room one last time to make sure that he was not missing anything. But, with his Energy Vision Sense not working properly in this place, he could only rely on his natural senses to perceive his surroundings. And, so far, he had not found anything out of the ordinary.
Izroth turned his attention to the Imp of Dreams.
'Should I eliminate it?'
Izroth thought about slaying the Imp of Dreams to prevent more potentially legendary items from falling into the hands of Broken Exile. After all, why would he leave such a good thing in the hands of those who were plotting to become his enemy?
However, the Imp of Dreams was still a legendary mythical creature. If they were out in the open, perhaps it would be a good idea. But, fighting a small creature in such a confined space in its own territory was too reckless.
'Forget it. If those books in the Amaharpe Palace Library are right, then killing a mythical creature would only bring about bad luck. Instead, would it not be better to leak the existence of the Imp of Dreams to the other top guilds and have them settle things?'
If the other top guilds caught wind of a creature like the Imp of Dreams being monopolized by Broken Exile, they would undoubtedly make a move and pressure them into sharing the spoils. But, given their arrogance, there was no way that Broken Exile would accept that when they were the first ones to discover it.
In the end, in order to save face and not be seen as weak by others, Broken Exile would be forced to fight a battle on multiple fronts. In many ways, this was even worse than outright slaying the Imp of Dreams.
After Izroth decided, he turned around and began to head back toward the way he came from. Right as Izroth was about to leave the room, the sound of a stream of system alerts entered
his ears.
[System Alert: The effect of <<Overeater>> has ended!
[System Alert: Integrating...
'It finally finished? It took much longer than the last time around. Is it because of its quality or the fact that it was a weapon?'
A while back, after Izroth settled things with Aurelius Windstorm near the border of Duke Sorkoza's territory, he fed the young Windstorm's sword to his Apparel of Insatiable Transcendence.
It was the first time that his Apparel of Insatiable Transcence wanted to consume a weapon outside of his Sword of the Storm that was reforged by the Enati back in the Ancient Celestial
Realm.
It had been over a week in-game since Overeater took effect. Izroth was curious about what changes would happen to his armor after eating a weapon. Not any ordinary weapon, but one
that contained the Law of Wind.
System Alert: Integration successful!
System Alert: Conceptualization of the <<Sword of Twin Natures>> has formed!
[System Alert: The <<Apparel of Insatiable Transcendence>> has evolved!
[System Alert: The skill <<Vessel of Laws>> for the <<Apparel of Insatiable Transcendence>> has
been created!
[System Alert: <<Imitation: Law of Wind>> has been added to the skill <<Vessel of Laws>>!
[System Alert: The skill <<Vessel of Laws>> is now available for use!
'Oh? This armor... Did it know that consuming the Sword of Twin Natures would help it evolve?'
Armor Name: Apparel of Insatiable Transcendence(Soulbound)
Armor Rank: Growth Type
Armor Level: 61
Requirements: ???
...
*New -> «Vessel of Laws>> - This item can absorb the laws of the world and allow its user to mimic its powers. Only [1] law of the world can be imitated at a time.
*New -> «Vessel of Laws: Stored>> - [Imitation: Law of Wind]
'It can actually absorb the laws of the world?'
Izroth was a bit taken aback by the evolution to the Apparel of Insatiable Transcendence.
Items capable of absorbing the laws of the world had to be at least unique-ranked. As for items that could absorb multiple laws of the world, even if such a thing were possible, that item would have to be at least at the divine-ranked!
Not only could his Apparel of Insatiable Transcendence absorb multiple laws of the world, but it also allowed Izroth to mimic its powers!
'Even if it's an imitation of the real laws of the world, its power cannot be underestimated. Not to
mention, even if it allows me to imitate them, the laws of the world it absorbs are the real deal. Right now, I can only use one imitation law at a time. But since I can use the Law of Void and have a basic understanding of the Law of Causality, doesn't this mean that I can use three laws simultaneously? Well, whether or not my current body can withstand it is another question.'
"Let's test it out," Izroth said as he activated the Vessel of Laws.
[System Alert: You have activated the <<Apparel of Insatiable Transcendence>> item effect
«Vessel of Laws>>![]
[System Alert: You are now using <<Imitation: Law of Wind»>![]
When Izroth activated the Vessel of Laws, his entire understanding of his surroundings changed. He could feel the flow of everything in the cave and room. It was like his senses were
everywhere at once.
As Izroth was getting used to the new sensation from the Imitation: Law of Wind, he suddenly
furrowed his brows.
'Hm? This is...'
