Chapter 346: Universe Bag (1/2)
Technically speaking, I could equip the battleaxe since I was a melee warrior. However, a battleaxe had high attack power but low attack speed. According to the hidden rules of Heavenblessed, the basic attack speed of an axe was 2.5 seconds per attack, and a sword 1.5 seconds per attack. Therefore, the Purgatory Sword was really much stronger than the Purple Thunder War Axe in terms of DPS, not to mention that it was clunky by default. Long story short, it wasn’t worth switching out my current weapon for it!
That being said, the axe’s Attack was 100 points higher than my Purgatory Sword’s. To other melee fighters, this axe was practically a dream weapon!
……
In the end, I decided to put it up for auction because the notion of gifting this to a player in my guild was completely unrealistic.
I also checked the rest of the loot. Both Lord Arthas and Thunder Axe dropped a couple of Gold-grade items, but only two of them could be considered top-tier. Oh well, I guess I’ll sell them all later. But for now, it’s time to turn in my quest!
I went back the way I came from. Lord Arthas was looking forward to ravaging a couple of beautiful girls after he returned to Floating Ice City, but I had killed his dreams and ended his and his escorts’ lives prematurely. Life truly was a drama!
On the way, I checked my experience bar. After killing three high-level Dark Gold Rank bosses in a row, my experience had risen to Level 98, 96%. I was definitely going to hit Level 99 after I turned in the quest, putting me one step away from hitting Level 100. It would be great if this quest chain still wasn’t over, but if not I could just grind mobs like usual. This was just the beginning. The higher the level, the harder it became to level up. I could grind mobs for an entire day and probably still not hit Level 100.
……
It wasn’t long before Fort Iron Bull and Princess Karinshan’s tent appeared in my line of sight. I didn’t encounter any trouble along the way, and when I drew open the curtains to the tent I was greeted by a most enticing sight.
Karinshan was lying on the sofa quietly. Her eyes were burdened by worry, and she was leaning in a way where her excellent curves were almost bursting out of her exquisite battle armor. Her breasts looked like they might jump out at any moment, and her smooth, white underbelly was pressing against the edges of the table. Maybe it was because she was lying on top of the table, but I could see the outline of her round butt even though it was mostly hidden by her battle garment.
Mm, the designers of Eternal Moon Corporation are all gods. Even the imperial princess they designed looks heroic and attractive.
A couple of seconds later, Ziyan asked, “Can we really trust that adventurer from Sky City, Your Highness? He’s just too young. I’m worried that he might betray your expectations…”
Stark nodded in agreement. “That is true, Your Highness. I highly doubt that a single adventurer could defeat the mighty Thunder Axe and Dren. In my opinion, we should’ve just dispatched the five Dragon Knights to Frost Forest and kill Arthas. That way, the command of his two armies will fall into our hands for sure!”
But Ziyan shook her head strongly. “No! The Dragon Knights had lost their faith ever since the Dragon Domain was turned into a wasteland, and the Dragon Speakers were all gone. However, they still obey the will of the Dragon Speaker Binglan; the will to never act against a member or friend of the Silver Moon Alliance. That is why they could only be used against the Night Creatures.”
Stark: “...”
……
I finally put down the curtain and called out quietly, “I’ve returned, princess…”
“What?!”
The silent Karinshan finally looked up. Her eyes were filled with pleasant surprise. “Did… did you kill Arthas?”
I nodded and took out his head from the backpack. Then, I tossed the oily head to the ground and watched it skid all the way to Karinshan’s feet.
“It… it really is that old fool Arthas!”
Absolutely thrilled, Karinshan kicked Arthas’s head to the side and jumped on me. Hugging my head excitedly, she laughed. “This is wonderful! The military power of Floating Ice City is finally united once more!”
Her reaction caught me off-guard a little, but there was no denying that she had an amazing figure. It felt good to feel her pressing against my body.
“Princess…”
“Ahem!” Karinshan looked at me and finally realized what she was doing. She released me in a hurry and took two steps backward, but she was all smiles as she said, “Young adventurer, you have not disappointed me. Starting this moment, you are a second-class noble of Floating Ice City!”
Second-class noble?
I wasn’t quite sure what it meant, but it was always nice to be named a noble. From now on, I could legally oppress the people of Floating Ice City! Woohoo!
Karinshan approached me again and placed her right arm gently on my shoulder. She smiled at me and said, “You may be an undead, young warrior, but I can feel that your heart is facing toward the light. I promise you that the doors of Floating Ice City will always be open to you. You have accomplished a near-impossible quest, so come and receive the reward you deserve!”
Ding~!
System Notice: Congratulations, you have completed the quest [The Assassination of Lord Arthas]. You have obtained 2750000 EXP, 8000 Reputation, 25000 gold, 1 Luck and quest reward: “Universe Bag”!
……
Universe Bag? My eyes lit up. Did this S+ Rank quest finally reward me something that was actually deserving of its rank?
I opened my inventory and saw a cyan-colored bag sitting at a corner. A surge of wild joy overcame me the second I checked its description. When I looked up, I saw the friendly smile on Princess Karinshan’s face. Was this a gift from her?
