The son of the dragon who walks

Chapter 193 Level 193: Re-engraved Artifact

Ciel stood at the door of the workshop and waved warmly goodbye to Finn as he left.

Ciel handed over the situation on the fifty-ninth floor to Finn, including some information about the fallen fairy's clone.

Of course, Charles also got what he wanted.

It is said that the Loki Familia has the largest library in Orario, which contains a lot of information about sacred texts.

Finn happily accepted Ciel's conditions for borrowing the materials. As long as he was not allowed to gain profit, any conditions could be negotiated.

After several blackmails from Hephaestus and preparations for the next expedition, the Loki Familia could no longer squeeze out any extra money.

I heard that Loki is still having a headache about how to repay the debt he borrowed during the last expedition. This situation led to Bert being as tired as a dead dog in the dungeon every day to earn money to repay the debt.

From Finn on down, there is no one among the cadres of the Loki Familia who is not eating dirt.

Ciel only planned to borrow a few books, and Finn had no reason not to agree. And it was just ordinary information, not the kind of precious magic books that would become invalid after reading them once.

After sending Finn away, Ciel could finally study his [mysterious] abilities.

Ciel finally understood what Hephaestus said about the difference between the sacred texts written by the gods and [Mystery] holders and those written by others.

Ciel looked at the sacred words engraved on the metal plate in front of him and could clearly feel that they were not just words, there was a kind of energy flowing in the words.

As for what gives words this energy, Ciel doesn't have any clue yet.

However, after the experiment, Ciel also mastered the [mysterious] effect.

According to the description in the data, [Mystery] allows adventurers to trigger eighteen kinds of miracles of gods, including the resurrection of the dead. It is undoubtedly a "skill of the gods".

Of course, with Ciel's current Level I [Mystery], it is simply impossible to trigger a miracle from God.

Even as far as Ciel knew, only (Page) Fels had accomplished this. He created the Philosopher's Stone that could make people immortal.

For the current Ciel, the most important goal is to upgrade the mystery. Even if he cannot master the resurrection from the dead, he still needs to gain the ability to preserve his soul.

Generally speaking, low-level [Mystery] needs to be used in conjunction with other abilities.

The Philosopher's Stone and Magic Book created by Fels using [Mystery] and [Magic] are examples.

The Hermes Familia's (Almighty One) Asfi also combined [Mystery] with [Reconciliation] and [Carved Gold] to create various items and props such as high-explosive gunpowder, flying shoes, and Hades' helmet.

For Ciel, of course, it is to use [mysterious] abilities for forging.

Of course, the first thing that Ciel thinks of when it comes to forging the miracle of God is the mythical artifact. So what Ciel needs to do next is to use his own ability to recreate the artifact.

"Farr, I have to ask you for help next time!"

Farr emerged from Ciel's magic book, lay down on his dedicated position in the workshop and called to Ciel.

Ciel selected a suitable forging hammer and some materials, and began to re-engrave the artifact.

The tinkling sound of iron resounded in Charles's room.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and Ciel's results of the past few days were all placed on the table.

It was a spear with a curved barrel and a hammer with a short handle.

After practical operation, Ciel also understood the limits of his abilities.

Ciel's original plan was to use sacred words to give equipment special powers, but in actual practice, he found that the power of the sacred words was too exaggerated and he could not describe it at all.

Furthermore, there is a limit to how equipment can carry sacred text, and this limit changes depending on the materials used and the forging level of the Char.

After several failures, Ciel finally built only two prototypes and emasculated an unknown amount of equipment.

Replicas of the artifacts Gangnir and Mjolnir.

Gungnir, also known as the Meteor Spear, is the weapon of Odin, the father of the gods in Norse mythology. According to legend, it is an artifact made by Odin from the branches of the World Tree, and the gun head has runes on it.

Its ability is that it will definitely hit and penetrate the target after being thrown. It is a powerful weapon of the causal system.

In addition, this artifact also has the ability to fulfill the vows made to it, which is also the reason why the legend of wishing on a shooting star appeared in later generations.

Mjolnir, the hammer of Thor, also comes from Norse mythology and is the weapon of Thor. It has the power to crush mountains and the ability to automatically fly back to its owner.

Of course, the replica created by Ciel will not possess the power of the original.

Both pieces of equipment are made of Oriha steel, which is the rare metal Orichalcum. They are both first-level equipment with indestructible attributes.

Maybe it's because Ciel's ability level is too low and he can only leave one entry on the equipment.

Among them, Gungnir's replica is a sure-hit weapon. As its name suggests, its ability is bound to hit the target.

Ciel's ability is not enough to use causal terms such as "guaranteed hit", so he can only use the sacred text of "lock" to achieve the effect of chasing the enemy until he hits it as long as he throws it.

Originally, Shire's design also wanted to add the two capabilities of "penetration" and "automatic return", but unfortunately this is not possible for the time being.

Naturally, the replica of Mjolnir cannot have the power to crush everything and the ability to resurrect like the prototype. It can only have the ability to return to the owner after being thrown.

So Charr named it the Hammer of Return.

I would say this re-enactment was a success, but I still feel it was a bit disappointing. But if I say it was a failure, it did achieve certain results.

For a moment, Charles didn't know whether he should be happy or not. At this moment, Charles heard a voice coming from outside the door.

"Ciel, let me come... Ouch!"

Ciel snickered. In addition to using the batch of Oriha steel he bought earlier to reproduce artifacts, Ciel also upgraded his own door.

The door with the non-destructive property is asking if you are afraid! And of course this door was made for the guy outside the door.

Ciel walked to the door and opened it, looking at Chun who was covering her toes without saying a word.

Chun looked up at Ciel and said, "When did you build a door with Oliha steel? It's such a waste!"

Charles curled his lips and said, "If someone can learn to knock on the door, it won't be a waste!"

Chun snorted unconvinced, followed Ciel into the workshop and said, "I heard that you went into seclusion in the workshop as soon as you upgraded. Did you gain any interesting abilities?"

Then Chun saw the sure-shot spear and return hammer placed on the table.

"Is this the result of your previous retreat? It looks good."

Charles frowned and said, "It's a pity that it didn't achieve the expected effect."

Chun picked up the sure-hit gun, weighed it, and said, "We still have to try the weapon before we know how it works. Why don't we go to the dungeon and try it out to see!"

Ciel glanced at Chun and almost forgot that the guy in front of him had upgraded to LV5 just by trying out the sword. It was not surprising to make such a suggestion.

But I have to say that Ciel was tempted. He also wanted to see how the equipment he forged with [Mystery] would perform in battle.
