Book 41, The Daoguard Tower, Chapter 9 – Sweeping the Loot
Ji Ning, the Paragon of Pills, and Azurefiend flew over together All eight floors of the tower had already cru a pile of rubble atop a foundation of dirt that hovered there in space
“Darknorth, why is it that the Daoguard Tower cruon of Pills was puzzled “I distinctly remember that it collapsed on its own”
“This Daoguard Toasn’t all that strong; I expect that its oas just a Hege said “It would be too difficult for hiapede like that, and so he used the entire Daoguard Tower to keep it sealed and suppressed! So long as the toas in good shape, the creature would be unable to break free… but once the tower began to cru around it”
The Paragon of Pills nodded slowly
“Now, if this was an Exalt’s Daoguard Toe really would’ve been in h “Still, we’re merely in the outer periuard Towers owned by Sithe Exalts are located in the heartland”
“The Sithe heartland?” The Paragon said, “I’ve visited the Sithelands on many occasions I could sense that spacetime was in a state of complete disorder and that there were many places that were unexplored”
“Those places were neversaid Very fe the true details and secrets behind the Dawn War The Paragon of Pills naturally didn’t know the secrets either Yes, she had learned a few things thanks to her crazy, repeated adventures within the Sithelands, but the heartland was a place which not even the Autarchs would dare trespass lightly
Ru fleards the toppled tower, his Sword Dao Do away the pieces of rubble as he closely inspected the remains of the tower
“Now this is a fun little toy” Ning relobe which had been affixed to one of the top floor This globe was the object which had unleashed that terrifying attack of light
“Once it accuy, it can unleash an attack of incredible power” Ning chuckled “This is a decent Sithe weapon, Mistress Azurefiend, help h the rubble I want to sweep this place clean”
“Heh heh,to bestow some of the treasures you are uninterested in upon me,” Azurefiend said, a look of utter shamelessness on his wizened old features
“Depends on ive this shameless old man what he wanted
“I never encountered a Daoguard Tower before In fact, I never even heard of it before you on of Pills was filled with curiosity as well The dangers she had experienced here, especially the terrifying nagapede, had all served to ensure that she understand that this site was very different from the other Sithe ruins she had visited in the past
The previous ruins she had scoured had been unoccupied This time, she ran into one with a controller If it hadn’t been for Ning, she truly would’ve been doomed this time
Booon of Pills happily dis out all usable Sithe artifacts and even a few unusable ones
Daoguard Toere exclusively employed by extremely powerful Sithe, who placed many of their treasures inside the towers Soether in incredibly powerful combinations
During the previous battle, Ning hadn’t even entered the Daoguard tower As a result, many of the powerful internal defenses hadn’t even been used! None of the external weapons were capable of killing Ning fro was able to dodge with ease even the quickest of attacks Otherverse Lordswas a different story
“Not bad”
“This one is decent”
“Now this ha and the other two continued to loot the toith Azurefiend and the Paragon of Pills occasionally testing out the items they found
The Paragon of Pills was fairly blasé, as she had adventured through the Sithelands many times and already owned multiple Sithe weapons Azurefiend, however, didn’t own any Sithe weapons at all Even the suppressive black chains were ift’ them
After spending a full hour coh the runes, the teaments which were completely unusable They found a total of twenty-one usable Sithe weapons, and they all had different effects Some were actually used to scry and scan
