Chapter 146 Vessel of The Endless One (1/2)
Name: Vessel of The Endless One(Magical Item)
Rank: S-ranked
Durability: ∞(Indestructible)
Charged: 5/100
Usage: When fully charged this item consumes all of its charged stacks to create a unique crystal that has the power to bend the s.p.a.ce around realms and other mysterious abilities. Every time a monster is defeated, this item becomes charged. The stronger the monster defeated, the more charged this item becomes.
Special Note: This is the Vessel of The Endless One, those unworthy of obtaining it shall find that this item only brings disaster. Those worthy of its power will find that it grants good fortune. After a single use, this item will seek out a new host to reside in at random and become dormant once again.
After reading over the item, Izroth still had a few unanswered questions. Of course, the first question was that if this item had anything with the Returning Shard.
'When it's fully charged, a crystal is created. Could it be that the crystal that will be created is the Returning Shard?'
Izroth felt that there was an extremely high chance that this would be the case. After all, were S-ranked items so easy to find? He was positive the Vessel of The Endless One was linked to the first trial of the Endless Pandamonium Tower.
The other concern he had was the actual charging of the item itself. When he examined its charged status, he found out that it already possessed five stacks. This was most likely due to having just defeated the rare event boss it was hiding in, the Brooding Behemoth Basbus.
However, if a rare event boss only gave five stacks, then how much would a single monster give?
'It seems as if this trial is becoming more and more unreasonable.'
As Izroth studied the Vessel of The Endless One, the other players were looking at him as if he were a monster. That skill he used was too terrifying! They were not even the target of that skill and yet, it still felt as if it was out to devour them and everything about it.
”What cla.s.s is that guy for him to be so powerful?” One of the nearby players gave a helpless sigh as he admired the skill Izroth just used moments ago.
”It has to be an extremely rare cla.s.s! I have never seen or heard about such a skill. He must have come across a great fortune somewhere!” One of that player's friends responded.
Almost everyone had that same exact train of thought. However, if everyone knew that Izroth was the Combat Master cla.s.s that they all considered to be trash, they would not be able to accept it.
After all, it was common knowledge that the Combat Master cla.s.s was too unreliable and unpredictable to be of any actual use.
This had been confirmed multiple time by various beta testers. Now only that, but some fools still decided to choose the Combat Master cla.s.s because they did not believe how challenging it was. However, they instantly regretted their decision.
They could not even pa.s.s the Combat Master cla.s.s basic requirements and had to restart their entire character. This made it so that they fell behind everyone else level wise and made them want to curse themselves for even thinking about choosing the Combat Master cla.s.s.
For those few who did manage to successfully pa.s.s the Combat Master basic requirements, they were even worse off than those players who were unable to. They would invest more time and effort only to be rejected by any party they tried to join.
This was because no party wanted a player with one or two skills and no other uses. They would be much better off saving the spot in their party for an actual cla.s.s who would obviously be a more suitable choice.
Luna walked over towards Izroth and noticed him holding a beautiful crystal. ”Is that the Returning Shard?” she asked in a voice filled with curiosity.
”Not exactly. But, it may have something to do with the Returning Shard.” Izroth responded as he showed the effects of the item to everyone within his party.
Valentine was drooling when he saw the Vessel of The Endless One and its effects with a large grin on his face. The first thing he wanted to do was study it and experiment with it.
However, since that item may be their only way of successfully completing the first trial, it was decided that it should be kept away from Valentine the most. Who knew what extent that magic freak would go to?
”I think that it's best if Izroth holds onto the item. I also believe that it has something to do with the Returning Shard.” Zi Yi said as she glanced over at Izroth. She was still startled by the 40,000 plus damage she witnessed a few moments ago.
Also, the pressure behind that attack made his other skills seem like child's play. She could not help but wonder what other secrets Izroth was hiding away.
”There are no safer hands that it can be in!” Guan Yu said with confidence. He had already come to respect Izroth and his strength before this but after that previous move, Guan Yu's respect reached another level altogether.
Izroth stored the Vessel of The Endless One into his inventory for now and finally read through the other system alerts he received after defeating the Brooding Behemoth Basbus.
〈System Alert: Congratulations, you have defeated the Brooding Behemoth Basbus〉
〈System Alert: You have been awarded 225,985 EXP〉
〈System Alert: You have leveled up to level 27〉
〈System Alert: You have been awarded+3 stat points for leveling up〉
〈System Alert: You have gained 1,258 points in the event «Protects of Amaharpe». [1,683 points]〉
Loot Drop:
-1 «Behemoth Greaves»
-1 «Behemoth Helmet»
-1 «Brooding Necklace»
-x1 «Skill Book: Behemoth's Quake»
Izroth had gained a ma.s.sive amount of experience from defeating the Brooding Behemoth Basbus. He had dealt the greatest amount of damage to the boss monster and so the amount of experience he received was quite generous.
Not only did he manage to level up once, but the number of points he received for the event had shot Izroth up to the top 100 players spot on the event leaderboards! To be more precise, he was now ranked 65th. This knocked Minus, who was previously at the 65th spot, down to the 66th spot.
After he checked the system alerts, Izroth then went over to grab the loot that dropped from the Brooding Behemoth Basbus. The first thing that caught Izroth's attention was a book with a black cover and strange markings carved into it.
'A skill book?'
This was the second skill book Izroth had come across during his time within RML. The drop rate for skill books was extremely low, therefore, it could only be attributed to Izroth's good luck that he managed to obtain one from the rare event boss.
