Confess System: Picking Up Girls After Girls, Try Not to Get Killed!

Chapter 296 ?Treasure Vault[PIC]

In truth, the "Venomous Blade - Poison Dragon Claw" had always been underestimated by Tyler.

[Click paragraph comment for detailed info of the venomous blade ]

[*The red parts in the picture are the upgraded parts of the venomous blade, as mentioned in previous chapters.]

The seemingly insignificant 6 points of venom damage per second could accumulate to 90 points per second when stacked to 15 layers.

Although 90 points of damage per second may appear to be a mere scratch, if sustained for a minute, it would amount to 5,400 points of damage, and 16,200 points if sustained for three minutes.

Yet the life energy of Frost Giant Wolf, ZaneThis is "mere" 12,118 points.

.

Scratches, too, can be lethal

.

Before executing his venom stacking plan, Tyler's only concern was whether the venomous status effect would be effective against the Frost Giant Wolf.

Fortunately, after attacking its eyes and legs, Tyler successfully applied a layer of venom to the Frost Giant Wolf

All that remained for him to do was to draw the Frost Giant Wolf's attention by acting as bait, while his shadow duplicates relentlessly attacked the wolf's wounded legs with the Venomous Blade, stacking the venom up to 15 layers

.

The true terror of the "Venomous Blade - Poison Dragon Claw" lies in the fact that its venom does not dissipate over time but continues to affect the victim until death, provided no antidote is administered

In the final confrontation, Tyler calculated that the Frost Giant Wolf had only about 20 seconds of life remaining.

However, even with its life energy severely depleted, the formidable foe still maintained a vigorous fighting spirit and formidable combat capabilities.

Tyler's last hit, despite being partially blocked by two shadow duplicates, instantly drained over 1,800 points of life energy, costing him more than half of his life

Had Tyler not devised the "Shadow Behind" technique in the nick of time, or if the Frost Giant Wolf had concealed a close-combat trump card, the outcome of the battle would have been reversed.

.

In the cold cave, Tyler dissected the Frost Giant Wolf's body while warming himself by the fire.

Since he had to continue his journey, he could only carry a limited amount of items, so he took the wolf's fourth-tier magic core and a pair of eyeballs, storing them in his bag.

The value of the fourth-tier magic core was self-evident, but the Frost Giant Wolf's eyes were also noteworthy.

Even after the wolf's death, its eyes still emitted a gloomy blue glow. Tyler's intuition told him that these were precious materials, so he carefully removed and stored them.

To his surprise, the eyeballs immediately froze upon being separated from the Frost Giant Wolf's body, indicating the presence of a special mechanism within.

As for the rest of the Frost Giant Wolf's body, Tyler set it ablaze, giving it a fiery burial and preventing it from rotting and stinking in the desolate cave.

.

Upon completing the aftermath, the thick ice on the treasury door melted.

Tyler approached, but instead of pushing the door directly, he summoned a shadow duplicate at a distance, instructing it to open the door and scout ahead.

As the door opened, Tyler saw a rectangular, spacious storeroom.

The room's height and width were both approximately five meters, but the length was difficult to discern due to the dim lighting provided by a few luminous magic stones, making the far end appear almost pitch black.

Tyler observed various equipment haphazardly displayed on both sides of the storeroom. It was not neatly arranged, but rather chaotically scattered.

This crude storage method was indeed characteristic of a goblin treasury.

The shadow duplicate remained in the treasury until its duration ended, dissolving into darkness. During this time, no abnormalities occurred.

Tyler initially wanted to summon another shadow duplicate to bring out a couple of pieces of equipment for inspection, but he abandoned the idea upon noticing a faintly glowing magic circle beneath each item.

(It seems that taking anything would trigger an alarm.)

Upon discovering the security mechanism, Tyler felt somewhat relieved. In this situation, he was not afraid of security measures, but rather of not detecting them.

Thus, Tyler inserted an arrow at the entrance of the treasury as a potential shadow escape route and cautiously entered the treasury, holding his breath.

·

The most nerve-wracking part of entering the treasury was the first three seconds inside. After that time passed without incident, it was deemed relatively safe.

Tyler used his identification ability to examine each piece of equipment until he had inspected the entire treasury.

In total, there were eighty-four pieces of equipment in the treasury. Even without a security mechanism, Tyler could not carry them all.

At times like these, Tyler envied those in "simple" difficulty otherworldly stories, where the most basic and common "interdimensional storage space" existed. However, in this impossible difficulty prison star world, such treasures only existed in fantasies.

Moreover, due to the security mechanism, Tyler had to evacuate immediately after taking any equipment, meaning he could only choose lightweight items that could be worn directly.

(What should I take...)

While pondering, Tyler reached the deepest part of the storeroom, where there was another "treasure" he could not carry.

.

Adjacent to the innermost wall of the treasure vault, there was a pool with a surface area similar to that of a water tank.

The pool's water was black and appeared somewhat frightening, but through Tyler's identification ability, he learned that it was actually a precious facility called the "Pool of Evolution."

According to the identification information, one could simply throw equipment (excluding divine weapons) into the pool, wait for a short while, and then obtain the evolved version of the equipment… Moreover, the Pool of Evolution had no security measures.

Despite this, Tyler had no means of taking the Pool of Evolution with him, and the identification information also stated that the pool had only one use remaining.

After much deliberation, Tyler placed the Shadow Sword Dragon Steed into the Pool of Evolution.

He decided to choose the equipment to take from the treasury based on the evolution of the Shadow Sword Dragon Steed.

·

The pitch-black sword sank into the dark water, and then there was silence.

·

Tyler quietly waited for five minutes by the pool. During this time, the idiot loli occasionally popped up to taunt Tyler, scaring him by saying that the Shadow Sword Dragon Steed must have been swallowed and that he had suffered a great loss.

Fortunately, a gorgeously designed longsword floated up from the dark water in the sixth minute, silencing the idiot loli.

The longsword then floated towards Tyler, seemingly waiting for him to pick it up.

Tyler did not hastily accept the evolved sword but instead examined it closely.

The sword featured a unique double-edged structure, emitting a gloomy blue glow from its blade. The cross-shaped hilt was adorned with numerous dark blue crystalline decorations resembling fur, and even a purple crown ornament at the end of the hilt.

At first glance, Tyler thought: It's over ??, it seems to have evolved into a flashy but impractical weapon.

He felt that the sword might shatter after a few strikes and that it might be more suitable as a decorative sword for nobles.

However, after using his identification ability to examine the longsword's information, Tyler immediately realized that he should not "judge a sword by its appearance."

This magnificent longsword was indeed a worthy successor to the Shadow Sword Dragon Steed!
