Chapter 302: Staff and Sword
I don’t know how long it has been.
Gilan sailed a long distance on the dark dream sea, but he could not accurately judge the specific time.
Fortunately, the light of the spiritual boat only dimmed slightly and was not affected.
This makes Gillan even more confident.
He knew that his current spiritual strength was much stronger than that of an average third-level mystic.
Jilan lay down on the side of the boat, stretched out his hand again, and let his fingers touch the sea water gently, and then it was gone.
Wow.
The negative emotions coming through the sea water this time are particularly strong.
It even made him feel depressed in his heart.
But this is also a good sign.
Because this means that we are closer to the land of God...
Suddenly.
Jilan raised his eyes and looked forward, his eyes shuddering.
I saw high waves rising up on the dark sea surface that was originally calm!
He quickly stopped the boat.
Wow! !
But the raging waves came quickly, wrapped up the small boat, and lifted it into the air. Ji Lan quickly stabilized his balance, then raised his eyes to take a closer look.
A huge figure, darker than the sea water, slowly emerged from the sea. According to visual inspection, it is more than ten meters long and six to seven meters wide.
It was a large irregular spherical object with dozens or hundreds of slender toothed tentacles at its tail. They danced continuously after emerging from the sea.
Like an octopus monster magnified countless times!
The sea water is turbulent and the water is splashing.
The hundreds of dark round eyes on the sea monster's face all stared at Jilan, revealing human emotions such as malice, greed, and hunger.
‘Why is there such a monster in the Dreamland Sea? ! ’
Jilan frowned.
call! !
A tentacle as thick as a pillar whipped directly towards Jilan in mid-air.
With no choice but to control his conscious body to fly up, he gave up the spiritual boat.
With a whimper, he nimbly dodged the whipping of the tentacles, but the boat fell heavily onto the sea.
Hoo ho ho!
Another seven or eight tentacles were drawn towards Jilan with a terrifying force.
With a cold face, he dodged left and right in mid-air, and then flew higher, trying to distance himself from the sea monster.
But when Jilan just escaped from the entanglement of the sea monster and flew high into the sky, the uneasiness in her heart did not disappear, but became more intense.
“Huh?”
Jilan suddenly realized something and turned his head sharply to look behind.
I saw a black shadow bigger than a sea monster, spreading its wings, roaring across the sky, and flying straight towards me!
It was a monster with a pair of huge bird wings.
It has no head, and tree-thick fleshy tendrils sprout from its neck, blooming like stamens. The feathers on the body surface are full of painful human faces, which are still changing expressions, squirming and ferocious.
Jilan’s heart skipped a beat.
His face changed slightly, and he quickly controlled his body's fall.
boom! !
The bird-winged monster passes by Gilan.
Jilan only felt that it was a large plane flying past his scalp, and the terrifying strong wind directly blew it upside down in mid-air.
‘There are more terrifying creatures above the Dreamland Sea...’
Such a thought popped into Jilan’s mind.
He quickly dived down and retrieved his spiritual boat.
But the surroundings are still rough.
In such a short period of time, several octopus monsters appeared again, surrounding Jilan.
‘Damn it...’
Jilan cursed secretly.
Hoo ho ho! !
Countless huge tentacles rained down on him.
Nowhere to escape!
Seeing this, Jilan made a quick decision and suddenly opened his eyes——
Whoa!
The midnight ceiling comes into view.
The surroundings are dark.
The curtains were blown up by the breeze, and the bright moonlight shone into the room.
The surroundings were quiet, except for the sporadic barking of dogs and cats coming from the distance.
“Shhh…”
Ji Lan took a deep breath and slowly sat up.
He turned around and looked at the clock on the wall. It was already four o'clock in the morning.
Tonight's voyage was originally going smoothly. He even had an intuition that he was very close to the land of God. Maybe he could successfully reach it after sailing for a while.
But the sea monster that suddenly appeared in the second half and the headless giant bird high in the sky forcibly hindered the journey.
‘Let’s try it next time…’
Ji Lan sighed secretly.
Finding the land of gods is not achieved overnight. I don’t know how many level 3 mystics are stuck at this step. Fortunately, he received the guidance of Miss Payton and mastered the "emotional anchoring method". After a few more attempts, he should be able to successfully find the land of God.
…
…
The week after.
Gilan returned to a peaceful life. In addition to eating, sleeping and practicing, he occasionally went to dream gatherings to exchange information with members of the "Hand of Dawn".
And during this period, he sailed to the Dreamland Sea almost every night. But what puzzled him was that he would encounter a sea monster at the last moment every time...
In addition to the octopus sea monster, Gilan also encountered a larger , a monster that looks like a manta ray. Its body is at least more than 20 meters long, more than 30 meters wide, and its tail is as slender as a whip, nearly 100 meters long.
This kind of sea monster will quietly lurk under Jilan's spiritual boat, and then attack suddenly. Either open the huge mouth on the back, spray out poisonous mist, or grab with the long tail...
In short, it is much more difficult to deal with than the octopus sea monster.
As long as he encounters it, Jilan has almost no way to deal with it, so he can only curse secretly and force himself to wake up.
It always feels like we are getting closer and closer to the Land of God, but we have been stuck at the last step.
In 1926, on the morning of November 24th.
Jilan received a call from the "Alchemy Hotline".
It was the old man who made the staff.
"Hey, Blood Owl, I have prepared the new weapon you commissioned."
The old gentleman's voice was powerful and his tone was smiling.
It seemed that he was quite satisfied with the new masterpiece at hand.
“So fast?” Jilan was startled, then smiled happily. "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Stick Maker."
"You're welcome, it's just an equal exchange. What's more, I'm very optimistic about you, young man... I hope you can become one of us soon, hahaha."
Laughter came from the other end of the phone.
Immediately afterwards, the old man who made the stick introduced Jilan:
“This stick is much heavier than the stick of justice, a full 50 pounds. It is 1 meter long and can grow after deformation. to 1.2 meters."
"The handle is specially designed for you in the shape of a drop, with twelve sides added, including tin sulfur, salt crystals and trace amounts of secret disc stone, which is tougher than steel ingots9. Times, can be used as a blunt weapon.”
"The body of the staff is also made of metal, but because your materials are incomplete, I also purchased three additional mysterious mineral materials. The surface patterns are relatively simple, based only on roses, iris, and cornflowers... Of course, these patterns It also has another use, which I will talk about later.”
“After the transformation, the cane will turn into a cross sword with a flower basket guard structure. The sword spine has a blood groove and the weak sword part has double edges. The strong sword part is not sharpened, and can be used for close-range chiseling, stabbing, hammering, etc.”
The old man who made the stick paused for a moment and laughed:
“Also, and. Like the Rod of Justice, it can be loaded with gunpowder, but instead of detonating, it ignites... Through the mechanism on the handle, you can open the magazine, load the gunpowder and ignite the sword core guide independently, and high-temperature fireworks will spread all over the sword through the pattern. "
"Because of the 'Maoxi Old Seal', the flames will not be transmitted to the handle, and the fireworks can be effectively locked on the sword body... This weapon can Said to be one of the few masterpieces in my life!”
Hearing this, Jilan's expectations became even stronger.
He held the "hot line" and said in a deep voice:
"Thank you very much, Mr. Stick Maker... How much is the total material fee and commission fee? I will pass it on to you now. "
"Well..."
The old man who made the stick was very satisfied with Jilan's attitude.
He pondered for a moment and replied:
"The additional material fee is 970 Caesars, and the commission fee is 500 Caesars... However, there are still parts of the Secret Disc Stone that have not been used up, and this weapon is also a headache for me. The use of the 'Old Seal of Maoxi' gave me a rare experience."
"Since you are the number one member of the Thorns, I will charge you 1,200 Caesars."< br>
Jilan raised his brows and said seriously: "Thank you."
He knew that the old gentleman did not need to deceive him about this kind of thing, so there was a lot of affection hidden in it. .
"Call out the alchemy array. I'll pass the stick to you... By the way, give it a name after you receive it."
The old man's voice came from the other end of the hotline.
“Okay.”
Gilan turned the microphone upside down, and immediately, a golden alchemy array appeared on the wooden floor.
He counted the 1,200 Caesar gold foil banknotes, sorted them into a pile, and placed them in the center of the array.
Whoosh!
The money disappeared instantly.
The next second, a simple cane, all gray and black, lay quietly on the ground.
Jilan took a deep breath and picked it up.
A cold, heavy and frosted texture comes from your hands. He lowered his head and looked at it. The cane was straight and engraved with fine patterns. It was restrained and mixed with a strong mysterious atmosphere.
Especially the twelve-sided drop tip on the handle, which is as shiny and smooth as pure silver. The section about 20 centimeters below the handle is shaped like a spiral pattern, but it is the intertwined roots of three kinds of flowers: rose, iris and cornflower.
Crack!
He pressed the round six-pointed star button hidden on the handle, and heard a crisp sound. The cane decomposed itself into twelve parts, opened and closed again.
At the tip and lower half of the staff, there were two clatters, and a section of the sword blade and cross guard popped out respectively. Under the hand guard, like a flower bud blooming, a flower basket structure "grows" and fit perfectly into the cross guard.
The cane turned into a gray-black cross sword in the blink of an eye!
The whole body is extremely exquisite and murderous!
The more he looked at it, the more he fell in love with it. He couldn't help but grab the staff sword and raised his hand to cast a round of "Gerald's Bloodletting Sword".
Boohoo! !
The twelve secret sword skills passed by in a few breaths, leaving a bright cold light in the air, forming a clear six-pointed star.
The sword wind swept around, making a harsh scream.
Ji Lan suddenly stopped and raised his staff and sword.
Buzz——
The tip of the sword vibrated at high frequency, emitting a strange rhythmic sound.
With a click, a fine scratch appeared out of thin air on the wall two meters away in front...
Soon.
呲呲岲——
There are more and more scratches, and finally a symbol of a perfect round six-pointed star is revealed!
“Good, good!” Jilan praised repeatedly.
Answering the call again, the old man who made the stick seemed to have heard his praise, and couldn't help but smile proudly:
"Are you satisfied?"
"Very satisfied!" Jilan agreed, feeling that the old man who made the staff was indeed a senior alchemist and craftsman.
This weapon really meets his inner needs and aesthetics.
The old gentleman then asked:
"Then what are you going to name it?"
"The name..."
Jilan lowered his eyes and looked at the cross sword.
I feel that it is very similar to myself. On the surface, it is just an ordinary cane. Once the mystery inside is revealed, it will become a terrifying weapon...
" Laughing.”
