Chapter 515 The Finger Bones of the Past
Fang Yi picked up the finger bone from the ground, which exuded an aura of death.

I glanced at this piece of equipment, which was of [Tier 2 Legendary] quality.

Look at Love, who is staring at the finger bone with shining eyes, wanting to examine the equipment.

Fang Yi recalled the specially made bullets in the other party's hand.

He first gave the old man a slight smile.

Then, like the thugs who rob tourists of their backpacks at some tourist attractions.

He rudely extended his right hand to the old man.

After conveying the signal, "I, Fang Yi, am sending money,"

Fang Yi then added two more sentences, seemingly with a deeper meaning.

"Additional assistance"

Seeing the man's outstretched hand and hearing his words...

Love only thought for a second.

He then took out four small glass boxes emitting green light from his [identity badge].

It was placed before Fang Yi.

“It’s already been prepared.

"In addition to two types of [Sharpening Stones] that each person can use before battle to temporarily increase the defense of their equipment and the lethality of their swords, there is also a free equipment repair service."

“I’ve also prepared some special gifts for you.”

The old man first took out a pair of leather gloves and put them on.

Then they opened one of the small glass boxes.

From the silvery-white sand, a ghostly green bullet was picked up.

She introduced him to the man.

"【Armor-Piercing Disaster I】."

"The warhead contains some scraps of 'starry sky fragments,' which need to be preserved in a container encapsulated with special sand."

"It is best to load these bullets only when needed."

"One box contains six pills."

"Normally, one person can only buy one set per month, and one set costs 3600 [old gold coins].

"Furthermore, registration is required upon purchase, and the purpose of use must be reported and the box returned after use."

After explaining the value of bullets.

The old man then began explaining the effects of the bullet.

"Upon hitting its target, if it is not a living organism, it will automatically devour surrounding objects and eventually explode into powder."

"If it is a part with life force, it will cause the disease of [Star Pollution], which absorbs life force and continuously generates crystals."

"Until the number of crystals multiplying reaches its limit, or an attack of sufficient strength hits the crystal, a terrifying explosion will be triggered."

Listen to the old man's explanation.

He recalled the merchant's injuries.

Fang Yi immediately came to a conclusion.

The bullet that hit the merchant, judging from the result, should be a specially made version that is much stronger than the bullet in front of him.

They probably manually increased the number of [Star Fragments].

Additional 'material stacking' was carried out.

After concluding that the enemy might possess the [Star Calamity] series of equipment.

Fang Yi took out his money pouch and waved it at the old man.

How much do I need to pay?
"Or is there anything I need to pay for this?"

He didn't think it was appropriate to let the other party see his equipment.

You can get these high-value bullets for free.
-
The old man calmly pointed to the "Proof of the Pioneer" on the man's chest.

"For you, just follow the rules and spend half the money to get 7200 [old gold coins]."

"But for these four boxes, you only need to give a symbolic 2000 [old gold coins]."

"At the same time, I can craft a piece of equipment from the [Star Calamity] series for you for free, but you will have to provide the materials yourself."

Fang Yi took the bullet decisively.

Give the old man 2000 [Old Gold Coins].

He handed the "Dead Words and Remains" to the old man.

He then calmly added a sentence.

"Then?"

The old man carefully took the finger bone.

He examined his finger bones under the light.

He then took out several strange-looking metal blocks and handed them to Fang Yi.

A new commission was issued to Fang Yi.

"I remember you demonstrated a very strong technique for preserving the spirituality of the material when you were dividing the [Heart of the Corpse Demon]."

"Therefore, I have prepared this commission for someone as powerful as you."

"These are two different types of metal blocks."

There was a pause.

The old man holding the finger bone muttered an unrelated remark, "A necromancer's finger bone?"

She then nonchalantly made some rather harsh and rude demands of the man.

"You should try to keep those monsters called the 'Star Calamity' active for as long as possible, and let them devour more of the monsters' flesh and blood."

"Then, take out two different metal blocks and insert them into the same part of the [Star Calamity]."

"Let those monsters digest these two metals and form corresponding crystals on their bodies."

"Then, crystals rich in these two metals were precisely separated from their limbs."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man heard a notification sound from the space.

You have triggered the [Challenge Mission: A Madman's Fantasy of Metal Fusion].

Completing this task is expected to reward you with 10000 Old Gold Coins, 8000 points, some story points, and a certain amount of merit points.

[Based on the quality of the submitted materials, additional assistance from the designated person will be provided.]
-
The old man put down the finger bone as he spoke.

He rubbed his calloused hands against his finger bones.

He then began talking to himself.

"So it was the legendary lich's finger bone."

"So someone made an outer shell to seal this equipment?"
"Or was this piece of equipment swallowed by the [Star Calamity] and then reworked?"

After pondering for a moment.

The old man decided to give up exploring something that he couldn't answer.

She then handed the finger bone to the man.

It also comes with two pairs of leather gloves with the attribute "reduces the impact of star pollution".

As an aside, "Remember to wear gloves when distributing materials."

"This material collection can also be considered as exploring some possibilities for the restoration of your 'Dragon Fang' longsword."

Then, the old man impatiently told them to leave.

"Alright, now that you've heard all my nonsense."

"Then you can leave."

"Your teammates should have claimed those two types of [Sharpening Stones] for you!"

Fang Yi took the gloves.

He bowed to the old man.

Then he left.

While heading to the hall, I began to examine the equipment.

This piece of equipment, [Deathly Remains], is somewhat special.

This is a relic.

It contains no ambiguity.

It does not refer to the "relics" unique to the Main God Space.

Rather, it refers to the place of origin that can be inferred from the fact that the equipment is not labeled as "a pioneering town in dire need of development."

The 'relics' left behind by a reincarnator who entered this [derivative world].

It enters a cooling-off period.
-
[Dead Words]

Select a target.

Depending on the target's vitality, you can consume a corresponding amount of [Dead Man's Breath] or consume your own vitality to construct the corresponding [Death Words].

[Death Word] can be attached to any form of attack.

Enemies killed by attacks imbued with the "Death Spell" will be erased from existence.

Leaving behind neither soul nor body.
-
【Dead Words, Erased Together】

If an attack imbued with the [Death Word] hits an enemy, it will deal a fatal blow to that enemy.

Within a certain range, enemies of the same bloodline will undergo a death check.

If the attack strength of the [Death Word] attached is greater than the life force of the creature itself.

The creature is then considered to have been killed by [Death Word].

Tip: It is recommended to use this on weaker creatures.
-
example:

An attack imbued with the "Death Word" debuff kills a cockroach.

All cockroaches of the same type in the room died and disappeared into thin air.

Kill a Murloc Blademaster.

Within a certain area, the Murloc Shieldbearers with higher health survive, but the Murloc Priests with lower health all die and disappear into thin air.

The drowned corpse is still alive.
-
【Dead Words - Chain Erasure】

Select multiple targets and pay [Dead Man's Life] and your own life force.

This allows the construction of a "dead statement" that links multiple targets.

An attack with the "Death Spell" effect, which hits one of the targets and deals fatal damage.

It will force an attack of equal intensity on other targets, ignoring their defenses.
-
Summary:
Through a special ceremony.

It incorporates a strange object that erases the existence of living beings, and inherits some of its characteristics.

We have also witnessed the great achievements built by the holders.

Equipment that is constantly evolving and being improved.
-
Evaluation:

The following words were written on the side of the finger.

My fingers are the oracle that proclaims death's arrival and erases all existence.

But it seems that the previous owner of this equipment was...

There are clearly some things wrong.

Therefore, it added a final message for those who would later be able to use this equipment.
-
I saw the last line of the review.

Fang Yi had already realized something.

It is obvious that this is someone who, like myself, obtained the Flag of Sincerity and accomplished a feat that ordinary people cannot achieve.

The equipment of a powerful reincarnator unexpectedly perished in this [derivative world].

The other party also left a message on their finger.

With that thought, the man calmly broke off his left index finger and fed it to [Dead Words Remains].

Then, a blood-red inscription appeared before his eyes.
