"You look surprised, kid."
Minerva walked to Lin Yinxi's side. Lin Yinxi spoke with a helpless voice.
"Is this the jar you were talking about, Minerva?"
"Yeah, I thought you should know, kid. Don't you know?"
"I thought it was much smaller than this."
Lin Yinxi carefully observed the huge glass bottle containing the Holy Water of Light.
The crystal clear round glass bottle is filled with liquid, so clear that one might mistakenly think it is empty.
He fiddled absentmindedly with the brooch on his left breast.
The Sun Pope himself once said that as long as he had this brooch, he could take 100 buckets of holy water without any worries, not just one.
He once again felt the value of this brooch.
"That's amazing! This is the first time I've known that it could be exchanged for so much holy water. If I sell it, I might become the richest man in the empire."
The same is true in games.
Before reaching Act 11 and the enemy's strength reaches its limit, one of the few items whose price increases every Act is this Holy Water of Light.
Starting from the eleventh week, the price of holy water containing light can be said to be over 100 million.
Of course, since it's a quest-only item, few players will buy it.
"Well, it's time to accomplish what I came here for."
Minerva snapped her fingers lightly, and the top of the glass bottle opened automatically.
At some point, a small potion bottle appeared in her hand.
The liquid inside the glass bottle, as clear and transparent as air, began to float up and enter the medicine bottle.
Minerva looked incredibly cautious as she moved her fingers.
Such caution is understandable, considering the nature of the holy water, which contains light.
"Because I'm really easily shocked..."
This is the greatest characteristic and feature of the holy water that contains light.
It is extremely sensitive to shock and has very weak shock resistance.
In any case, once the liquid of the Holy Water of Light is subjected to more than a certain amount of impact, it will immediately turn black and lose the active power of the holy water.
The standard of "certain amount" is really very low.
This is why Seris's material collection missions are so infamous.
Because the Holy Water of Light has extremely weak impact resistance, once the player makes a mistake or operates improperly, the Holy Water of Light will lose its effect.
Players perform various basic operations such as walking, running, rolling, swinging weapons, shooting, using weapon special abilities, enchanting, chanting magic, chanting sacred spells, using consumables, etc.
All of these actions will be considered "shocks," causing the Holy Water of Light to deteriorate.
In other words, the player cannot run, roll, swing weapons, be attacked by enemies, or use magic or holy spells while moving the Holy Water of Light.
Even using the statue's quick movements and various rests would affect the Holy Water of Light, making it impossible to quickly teleport back to the vicinity of Selyse's hut.
Other materials can be collected by using statues for transmission, but Holy Water of Light cannot. This is the difficulty deliberately designed by the production company.
In other words, "you have to keep walking."
That's it, the player must "walk" and transfer the Holy Water of Light to where Selyse is while sealing all other actions.
Even normal brisk walking will be judged as impact, causing the holy water to deteriorate, so it is not just walking, but requires the player to hold down the Alt key to walk slowly.
The only place where holy water can be obtained is the Holy Kingdom, and Selyse's hut is at the end of the empire.
So, this effectively means that players have to move from one end of the map to the other at the slowest possible speed.
At the same time, in this situation, if you are hit by the enemy, it is over, that is the end;
Even if you roll to avoid an attack, that's the end of it;
Trying to deal with enemies remotely will end the moment you chant magic and holy incantation spells.
The distance between the Holy Kingdom and Selys's Hut is quite long, even if you walk in a straight line without any obstacles in between.
If there are enemies in the middle, you have to take a long detour. Taking into account the terrain that players cannot cross, the actual distance is about twice the distance seen on the map.
In fact, no one knew how to complete this task at the beginning.
Because no matter what method is used to transport the materials, the Holy Water of Light will deteriorate. Some players even think that this is a bug and an absolutely impossible task.
But when the final strategy was posted on the forum by a cracked player, many players were shocked by the disgusting transportation conditions of the "Holy Water of Light", the material for the final link of this task.
To move from one end of the map to the other, you have to walk slowly, without being attacked by enemies or using statues to move. Insane, right?!
This is why the Holy Water of Light is so precious.
How can you obtain something that will spoil just by walking around briskly with it?
"child?"
Just as Lin Yinxi fell into deep thought, recalling the unpleasant gaming experience of the past, he suddenly heard Minerva's voice and came back to his senses.
"What's wrong, Minerva?"
"Have you thought it through? I saw your expression became so serious, so I called you. I'm sorry if I disturbed you."
"No, it's nothing, Miss Minerva. Just some useless thoughts."
"Even so, don't you still have an ugly look on your face?"
"........"
There was no way...he couldn't help it.
It would be strange if he didn't look grim when recalling that unpleasant experience.
Seeing Lin Yinxi like this, Minerva smiled slightly and moved her fingers.
"Get it."
The potion bottle rested lightly on his palm. Although the potion bottle was small, it was worth a fortune.
"Are you going to send the rest to the Magic Tower?"
"Yeah, that's right."
Minerva gently waved the staff in her hand.
An unprecedentedly complex magic circle gradually appeared in front of Lin Yinxi, and its form was far beyond what he usually saw.
The shape is like a delicate snowflake blooming in the air.
The layers of magic circles all emitted a faint blue light, tightly wrapping the large glass bottle filled with the Holy Water of Light.
The triple light enveloping the large glass bottle of Holy Water of Light burned brightly.
Not long after, as the triple light of the magic circle became brighter and brighter, the magic circle turned into a dazzling beam of light. After the beam of light flashed, the large glass bottle containing the holy water of light disappeared without a trace.
"The rest can be left to the other children in the magic tower. Now, let's go back."
Instantly, the magic circle used to transport the Holy Water of Light wrapped around the two of them. A warmer feeling than the usual magic circle transmission wrapped around them.
Lin Yinxi closed his eyes, held the medicine bottle in both hands, and stood stiffly in place, not daring to move. As the light gradually dimmed, he opened his eyes.
"........"
In front of him, Celis was standing in front of him with a surprised expression on her face.
"How come you're back so soon? I thought it would take at least a few days... Are things going so quickly over there in the Holy Kingdom?"
"As you can see, that's how it was. Before we knew it, it was over. And this is the promised Holy Water of Light."
Lin Yinxi handed over the bottle containing the Holy Water of Light.
Selyse's eyes widened as she rushed over and carefully took the small potion bottle containing the Holy Water of Light as if she were serving a shrine.
“Finally…Finally…!”
Selyse looked almost on the verge of tears, her eyes welling up with tears that seemed ready to flow if she were touched.
"It's not too late to do it after you succeed. Let's get started. Didn't you promise to help me forge weapons?"
"Ah, yes, yes! We need to finish it quickly! Don't worry, it won't take too long. Just rest up like you would at home! I'll really be back soon!"
Selyse, trembling with excitement, disappeared over the wall with the small potion bottle, then ran back immediately and scraped away the remaining materials on the table.
Soon, a terrible and unpleasant smell hit me in the face.
"All right!"
After an unknown amount of time, Celis, her face brimming with excitement, ran towards them, holding a small potion bottle. It was the glass bottle that had once held the Holy Water of Light.
Upon seeing this scene, Lin Yinxi immediately stopped talking about the crystal scroll.
Next to him, Minerva, who was listening to his story with great interest, suddenly looked as if the world had collapsed.
Selyse, who had run ahead of the two, stopped and then bent down and bowed.
"Thank you, really. It's all thanks to you. I can't thank you enough for this kindness... I will definitely repay you. Even on my honor."
Lin Yinxi nodded silently without saying anything, while Minerva stared at him intently without even glancing at Celis.
...I'll have to find the real crystal scroll sooner or later anyway, so why are you so anxious to hear the story?!
"Okay...you still don't want to drink?"
With the happiest expression in the world, Celis opened the cork of the potion bottle, looked at it with choked eyes, and swallowed it in one breath with tears in her eyes.
152. Wingless Nightmare and Secret Realm
"Okay! That's it! It's been ages since I've been this strenuous!"
Celis walked towards Lin Yinxi with a smile on her face.
At this time, her whole body was soaked with sweat, her skin reflected the luster under the light, and her body was covered with specks of black soot.
She held a sharp sword in her hand.
Celis turned the sword over and handed the hilt to Lin Yinxi.
"Try it on. If you feel something isn't right, tell me and I'll make adjustments. I'm just using my eyes to roughly estimate the design that's right for you. To confirm, you still need to feel it yourself."
Lin Yinxi took the hilt and held it.
This is a long sword that is completely black, even the hilt is completely black, like an abyss in the night sky. The end of the hilt is inlaid with a spherical ornament engraved with gorgeous patterns to help balance the center of gravity when swinging.
This is a cross sword. Above the straight-extending hilts on the left and right sides, the triangular pattern extends all the way to the middle of the sword body.
On both sides of the hilt, the sword body, which is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, extends all the way up to one-third of the sword. On both sides of the sword body, there are patterns of different shapes from the triangular patterns that spread across the sword body.
Lin Yinxi gripped the hilt of the sword with both hands, holding it vertically in front of his chest, with the tip of the sword pointing towards the ceiling.
Seeing him like this, Ceres sneered.
"Do you like it? Do you feel something is wrong? You can wave it here. Just don't smash my tools. Well...if you want, you can choose one or two swords to test, just don't use anything too expensive."
"...I don't think so."
Lin Yinxi ignored Celis's excited and noisy voice and slowly observed the surface of the sword.
He could clearly see his face reflected in the black surface of the sword.
The blade of this sword is extremely smooth and shiny, and the black blade seems to be able to be used as a mirror.
As long as you take good care of it, I believe it can remain this smooth for a lifetime.
This is definitely a very sharp sword.
This was a fact that Lin Yinxi, who had only held kitchen knives, utility knives, and nail clippers before Crossing the Dark Light 4, could immediately notice.
"If there's anything inappropriate, please tell me quickly. I still have the strength.
Ah, there's one more thing. It's the one I made back when I was obsessed with swords, so it has some unique features. Do you want to guess what it is? Hmm?"
Before Celis finished speaking, Lin Yinxi gripped the hilt of the sword tightly and injected his "will" into it.
Then, the originally pitch-black blade instantly turned a magical blue.
