BXBX NOVEL Chapter 169 - Arming Up Part 1
With them nearly reaching Staten Island, it wasn\'t the time for them to be asking each other questions and they needed to prepare themselves.
They had both cultivated for a while and were in their peak states both mentally and physically, as Angela brought over a large bag and placed it between herself and Adam who sat opposite to her.
"Since we have reached Staten Island, we should arm ourselves and prepare ourselves for the worst outcome," said Angela.
"Yes, I agree. What do you have in there to arm us with?" asked Adam curiously.
The bag wasn\'t big enough to hold any large bladed or automated weapons, but Angela seemed confident that whatever she had brought was enough to protect them and increase their power, which made Adam curious as to what Angela had brought with her.
After being told about Illusion Stones, Adam had been opened up to infinite possibilities and didn\'t put anything past Angela and the powerful and capable Maxwell Family that she was from.
Opening the bag, the first thing that Adam saw was a few small blades and knives that seemed to be enhanced weapons that had enhancing effects on the wielder.
Lifting up one of the blades, Adam could instantly feel the effect that it had on him and although he wasn\'t sure exactly what rank it was, he estimated that it was of similar quality to the sabre that he had stolen at the Silver Moon Auction House.
Adam wanted to confirm that estimated and tried out his Status Peering Feature on the dagger he was holding, just to test whether or not the Status Peering Feature worked on physical items.
Since the Status Peering Feature had become independent from the system and owned by him, he could direct it in any direction that he pleased and used it on the dagger that he held.
To his surprise, the Status Peering Feature actually worked and the information that it gave him about the dagger was slightly more detailed than what he would see about weapons in his inventory.
C- Rank Mortal Weapon: Maxwell Family Dagger
Background of the Weapon: A weapon that is mass-produced by the Maxwell Family and is the standard issue of their family members. Quite easily and quickly forged, along with other C- Rank Mortal Weapons.
Effects:
+2 in strength
+5 in speed
Looking at the background information of the weapon, it stated that they were easily forged by the Maxwell Family, which made him feel like the risk that he took to steal Angelo\'s Sabre might not have been worth it.
But Adam had no regrets and at the time he felt like it was worth it and was also an event that shaped who he was at that moment.
"What rank is this weapon?" asked Adam, who wanted to see whether the ranking system that was used by them was the same as the one that the system used.
"They are all C- Rank Mortal Weapons and you can easily get loads of these weapons at the Maxwell Family and other large cultivation families. It is the rank of weapons that is most suitable to mass-produce as they are relatively powerful, while aren\'t too difficult to produce" answered Angela.
With that, Adam didn\'t wait for Angela to hand out the weapons that were there and Adam took two daggers and a knife before Angela could say anything.
He tucked the two daggers on each side of his pants, and the knife at the back, then covered them all with the hoody that he was wearing that was loose and concealed the weapons well.
Angela just laughed at Adam\'s shamelessness and also took a knife that she placed in a small scabbard that she had wrapped around her leg, that was covered by her dress.
The scabbard was wrapped quite high up her leg and to put the knife there, she had to reveal most of her leg and Adam couldn\'t help but be affected by that slightly and praise her flawless skin and beauty.
However, he was still calm as he looked at the rest of what was in the bag in confusion, unsure of what most of it was.
"What are the rest of these?" asked Adam pointing at everything else in the bag.
"Well, there are some Illusion Stones and some other charms that we might need in battle. Since we are going to another families territory, we must be prepared" answered Angela, who was clearly maturing.
"Does Wayde need this weapon?" asked Adam, seeing that there was only one knife left in the bag.
Angela shook her head and as soon as she did so, Adam grabbed it.
Since there was one knife left, and Wayde didn\'t need it as he preferred to fight barehanded, Adam without thinking about it, took the knife and tucked it beside the other knife that he had, carrying 4 weapons at once.
However, after placing it beside the other knife, even though Adam was shameless and wanted to benefit as much as he could, he knew that it would restrict his movement and was uncomfortable, so he placed it in his inventory.
The three weapons he was carrying was more than enough, so he placed the knife in his inventory beside the sabre and was more interested in what else they had to arm themselves with.
Angela and Wayde didn\'t seem to care about the weapons that were standard issue in the Maxwell Family and easy to come by, and Angela was amused by Adam\'s shameless nature.
"What are charms?" asked Adam.
"Charms are very similar to the Illusion Stones in the way that they are stones with runes imprinted on them, but they have different functions. There are protective charms that form a barrier around the activator and enhancing charms that enhance the body of the user and they all use Internal Energy to activate" answered Angela as she began to take out all the Illusion Stones and Charms that were in the bag.
