Twin Sword – Chapter 6: Measuring Sky Ruler
“Sister… how did you get this artifact?” Everyone surrounding the girl, asked the same question.
The girl didn’t hide anything. She had a persevering character from childhood. Of course, this can also be understood as stubborn. She was fairly pretty too, so when everyone tried to find a task, she argued with a man who was farming. The reason was that the man accidently splashed mud on her when she went across the street and she asked him to apologize. But this man was a mute, after being pestered by her for an hour, he grudgingly gave her a quest to drive her away. After she finished feeding the cattle, she got this Earth Rat Mace.
“Oh!” Everyone’s eyes lit up, it wasn’t that the village did not have quests, but the quests are hidden. You must find a way to activate the quest. Anyway, this was logical. You wouldn’t ask a stranger to help you take care of your child in kindergarten, would you?
Understanding this point, the group of players scattered, fleeing into the village, one after another asked anyone they met affectionately: “How many people are in your family? How many acres of land do you have?… You don’t have any? You must have, please? Can’t you think again, maybe you worry for your child at home? Do you not worry about your wife alone at home? Have you lent someone money and he isn’t paying it back, or perhaps some loan sharks tricked you and want you to pay it back right now? Do you have any problem with literature?… Ah, brother, why do you not know that the earth is round?… Help me, murder…”
Only Tang Hua quietly sneaked beside that girl. He asked: “Sister, how to use an artifact?”
“Do you have an artifact?”
Tang Hua nodded.
“It’s written x.x.x, then a question mark?”
“Yes!”
“After you kill a chicken, in addition to experience, there is something called Spiritual Power, right?”
Tang Hua opened system screen, looked and said: “There’s 50 points.”
“You must infuse it with spiritual power, in the “Operating Artifact” tab are two b.u.t.tons: “Infusing Spiritual Power in the Artifact” and “Cultivating Artifact”. But artifacts which was already equipped or infused with spiritual power that couldn’t be traded nor dropped in death. Extra spiritual power can be exchanged for some experience at the designated NPC, though it’s a small amount, but it’s better than nothing.”
“Ah! I see, thank you sister.”
Sister waved: “Never mind, don’t be so polite.”
Tang Hua opened the “Operating Artifact” tab, put the ruler up, and then began the infusion of spiritual power. As soon as he heard the prompt voice of the system, the ruler’s name and notes have changed.
Measuring Sky Ruler, Level 1 (non-flyable), how high is the SkyHeaven, how wide is the Earth, this ruler can measure all. Note: After using a specific method, this ruler can enhance user’s magic attack power, for a duration of 10 minutes, and a cooldown of 10 minutes. Additional skills: None. The next level needs a full proficiency degree and 1,000.000 spiritual power points.
Strange, that sister’s Earth Rat Mace upgrade requires only 100,000 spiritual power, why does this ruler need such a huge amount of 1,000.000?
“Measuring Sky Ruler!” Tang Hua shouted, a three-feet-long white jade ruler appeared in front of Tang Hua. At its center there was a red dot rapidly traversing. What does this mean?
Tang Hua looked at the red spot in wonder, unsure as to what to do. The teacher who was skipping school came across, kindly said to Tang Hua: “You cannot see with just bare eyes, you have to carefully look with your heart.”
“Heart?” Tang Hua stared at it for a long time and nearly got cross-eyes. In the end he cried sadly and said: “Teacher, my heart is almost broken, but I still don’t see it.”
“Then… use this to see.” The teacher pulled out a magnifying gla.s.s and handed to Tang Hua.
