Rebirth of the God Hunter Legend

Chapter 91 Unlocking the Mysterious Module
On the outskirts of Xicun Village, on the road leading to the Gale Forest, Ling Chuan looked dejected.

Yi Han laughed heartily, "What's wrong, my great village bully?"

Thinking back to the scene of those rough guys leaving the West Village gate, Yi Han couldn't help but smile. There were things like, "Brother Qian, you worked hard! You were so cool just now, we're cheering you on!"; "Hey Brother Qian, we're going to level up. If you're not leveling up, get some rest, your health is important, don't overwork yourself. Also, you look especially handsome with that top on your head!"; and "Brother Qian, next time if you make any big moves, just let us know in advance, we'll all listen to you. Look, we got wiped out by your monster army because the message wasn't relayed. But we don't blame you, it's our fault for not hearing it. Luckily we got a level up, so we're happy." Everyone who came out nodded to him, the scene was more exaggerated than a nostalgic movie.

Ling Chuan glared at him, then suddenly frowned and said dejectedly, "I've made my character so clear in public, so why am I still being questioned and misunderstood by the public? This world is so cold-hearted, brother-in-law, this is so hard for me."

Yi Han: "Uh... right?"

"Perfunctory."

Yi Han, "..."

For some reason, he suddenly realized that Ling Chuan had completely let loose since opening up, and even his eloquent brother-in-law was gradually finding it hard to keep up.

"You two, stop joking around."

Ling Feixue couldn't help but chuckle. Although the situation at the time was indeed hard to describe, she could tell that Ling Chuan wasn't truly disappointed.

"But do we really have to go that far to activate the mysterious module?" Ling Feixue changed the subject.

Ling Chuan shrugged and said, "What if there's another big commotion?"

Neither of them responded; it was something they dared not say.

"However, it seems that the divine revelation really likes to use the word 'mysterious,' such as the mysterious gift that the system gave when you first entered the game."

Yi Han's casual remark stunned Ling Chuan. "What did you say?"

"A mystery gift? Aren't there already limited editions?" Yi Han asked, puzzled.

Ling Chuan slapped his forehead, inwardly annoyed. Right, when he received the Hidden Race Selection Book, he was so happy he completely forgot about Yi Han and Ling Feixue. They were also Extreme Limited Edition players and had received mysterious gifts too. If they had misused them…

"Xiao Chuan, what are you doing?" Yi Han grabbed Ling Chuan's wrist before Ling Feixue could react.

Ling Chuan shook his head. "It's nothing. I was too focused before and forgot to ask you what the mysterious gift you received was. That's very important."

"Is it important?" Yi Han asked curiously. "It's a letter."

"A letter?" Ling Chuan asked.

Yi Han rummaged through the package, took out the letter, and shared the information in the team channel, saying, "This is it."

Mysterious Letter

special items
Item description: It seems to contain a record of someone's request for help.

Use: Obtain quest clues upon use.

Status: Bound, bound character: [Yi Shui Han].

Requirement Level: 50
……

nice one!
Although it's impossible to determine which mission the letter is related to, there's no doubt that any mission that can be obtained from the letter is top-notch.

"How is it?" Yi Han asked.

Ling Chuan withdrew his consciousness and replied, "We can't find any useful clues from the information alone. Since there's a level requirement, let's set it to level 50. What about you, older sister?"

Ling Feixue said, "Mine is a [Random Equipment Box], with no special contents, and the opening level is also fifty."

Ok!

Ling Chuan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, these were all items that required a certain level to use. Otherwise, if they had been given something that could be used directly, the two of them might have wasted their time due to a lack of information. For example, the previous owner of the Hermes Fragment was a prime example.

"The random equipment boxes are all about luck, but my sister is absolutely stunning, she'll definitely get some good stuff," Ling Chuan said sincerely.

"I second that proposal," Yi Han said, raising both hands in agreement.

Ling Feixue's cheeks flushed red. She tapped Yi Han on the head with her cane and said coquettishly, "Don't joke around with your sister!"

Ling Chuan glanced at Yi Han with a pained expression, then nodded obediently, "I was wrong."

Yi Han buried his head in his hands and sobbed, "Feixue, why did Xiao Chuan hit me?"

Ling Feixue said very bluntly, "I can't bear to hit him."

Yi Han wept uncontrollably, "This is so hard for me ┭┮﹏┭┮."

Ling Chuan patted his shoulder and comforted him, "It's okay. According to the sayings of our ancestors, my sister is just expressing her feelings for you in a subtle way."

Yi Han sniffed. "I know, it's about that kind of relationship, right? So, I'm the one who profited?"

"Earn money with blood!"

"Alright then." Yi Han smiled through his tears.

Yeah, my brother-in-law is super easy to please. ...

After some chatting and joking, the three finally arrived at their destination—an abandoned mine.

"Ouch!"

As soon as they got close, the mournful howls of wolves startled them.

"Huh? Weren't the monsters that got stuck during the day dealt with?"

Seeing the two thorny wolves swaying their rumps, Yi Han was a little confused; he remembered that they had been cleared away.

Ling Chuan explained, "It was a backup plan I kept, but it didn't come in handy. Now I'll send them away."

As he spoke, Ling Chuan gave the order, and the Thunder Demon Bear, which had been hiding in the jungle, leaped out and sent both of them flying with a single burst of demonic lightning.

"Alright, the outsiders have left, let the ceremony begin."

After uttering a rather cheesy opening line, Ling Chuan flipped his hand and took out the mysterious module that was pulsating with crimson light, then touched it to activate it.

[Ding] System notification: [Mysterious Module] Activation progress is complete. Unlock now?

Yes!
Sizzle—Boom!
A strange phenomenon occurred: a powerful arc of crimson electricity burst forth, accompanied by a violent shock that swept across an area of ​​hundreds of meters!
Ling Chuan clung tightly to the mysterious module, withstanding the powerful impact. Yi Han reacted quickly, raising the Thorn Shield a second before the shockwave spread, releasing the Radiant Shield, which stood in front of Ling Feixue.

Fortunately, the impact only lasted for five seconds, but in those five seconds, Ling Chuan saw far too much.

The ultimate fragment Hermes rapidly dissolved, turning into wisps of grayish-red fluid that flowed into the mysterious dagger.

The mysterious dagger twisted and deformed, stretching and extending at a speed visible to the naked eye, until it reached half an arm's length before finally stopping.

The red sheath peeled away bit by bit, breaking into fragments of red that floated above the module, revealing the ancient, deep, and chilling darkness hidden beneath.

The blood-stained pattern on the dagger hilt slowly peeled away, and a drop of red blood, covered with purple-gold patterns, slowly seeped out. It contracted and throbbed rapidly, like a living heart.

However, before the blood droplet could make any significant movements, the crimson patterns on the module flashed repeatedly, shifting and intertwining as they imprinted themselves onto the blood droplet, layer upon layer.

As the crimson markings were inscribed, a small, obscure array rapidly took shape, attracting the scattered fragments of crimson light floating above the module to gather and condense. However, this time, the center of their gathering was no longer a dagger, but a drop of red blood, integrated into the obscure array and covered with dark gold patterns. Its transformed form was no longer a sheath, but a crimson eggshell.

At this point, all changes ceased completely. The mysterious module seemed to have completed its final mission, vanishing with the passing wind; leaving behind only an ancient dagger gleaming with a deep, cold edge, and a crimson egg covered with dark gold patterns.

[Ding] System notification: [Mysterious Module] unlocked. Congratulations on obtaining the ultimate artifact [Hermes] and the ultimate demon [Betty].

"Hermes...

Trembling, Ling Chuan reached out his hands and gently stroked the dagger. He grabbed it in one swift motion, and suddenly his entire right arm transformed into a state of pitch-black demonic flames. Hermes was also instantly enveloped in the demonic flames, transforming into a pitch-black demonic blade burning with hellfire.

"Detection Technique..."

Ling Chuan's blood-red vertical pupils contracted sharply, and he saw right through Hermes's information panel!
