Chapter 88: Strong ghost metal
This power was really explosive like that of a volcano erupting. Everywhere it passed felt like magma was flowing through which caused his body to turn red. He could only coil up on the ground to reduce the pain he was going through.
The energy slowly disappeared after making two cycles around his body. He slowly sat up and his body was soaked. His lips tore cause he bit them and a bloody smell filled his mouth.
He found a bottle of water to drink. The cold liquid entered his body and made him feel slightly better.
En?
Ye Zhongming moved the right hand that he used to grab the bottle and his injuries were gone.
He got up to jump and indeed, the injuries that he suffered from that day were all recovered.
Ye Zhongming hadn’t eaten Goat Treasure in the past as Terror Goats weren’t common even in the dungeons. Most of them became high level creatures and their skin was so thick that they were tough to kill. There weren’t many chances to get the Goat Treasure so even if his team got it, with his position and status, he wouldn’t get a part of it.
Moreover, Goat Treasure was much better the lower one’s evolution level was. Very few five star experts bothered to kill Terror Goats as the Goat Treasure didn’t have an effect on them.
But Ye Zhongming was a one star evolved and he was eating a level two Terror Goat’s Goat Treasure so naturally the effect was superb.
His body recovered and his physique had improved a little. He tested and he felt that he was around 8-9 times that of a normal person.
Apart from these more obvious changes, he also noticed that his mental energy had greatly increased.
In the past, he estimated that his mental energy was around 200 points. This increase meant that he was over 300 and was close to 350!
As he had two jobs, Ye Zhongming’s mental energy was not enough. As a result, he often ran out which caused him to lose control of his body. Now that he had so much more mental energy, that helped to reduce that problem to a large extent.
Moreover, Ye Zhongming had the Basic Summoning Technique whose effect was based on how much mental energy and the medium used to calculate its effect and the duration it lasts. Mental energy increase helped to increase the strength of this skill, allowing Ye Zhongming to control the skill usage during his battles.
These three changes made him overjoyed. As for the special abilities that the Goat Treasure was said to provide, they didn’t appear. Magical things often occurred in the apocalypse but they won’t all happen to you. Ye Zhongming understood that theory.
Ye Zhongming felt energetic now that he was healed and his mental energy had increased. He kept everything in his space crystal and in his hands was the final item, ghost metal.
He definitely wouldn’t use it all since it was such a big piece. He thought about it. Anyways since he had enough mental energy, he should use Collecting and Refining technique to deal with the ghost metal.
This Glory Smith skill that consumed a large amount of mental energy was really strong. After using up close to half of his mental energy, the ghost metal split into 100 units.
This gave Ye Zhongming a dream. If he had a billion mental energy points, if he touched the ghost metal chains on the Chain Prisoner, then all the Ghost Metal would be his.
Ye Zhongming glanced at the dark sky and felt that he should stop dreaming.
100 sets of ghost metal, 10 grams each. Ye Zhongming decided to test their effect.
He used 10 grams to test. If those smiths in the last life found out, they would definitely scold him for wasting money as ghost metal was often used in grams.
But he had so much on him so he didn’t really care about whether or not he was wasting them.
Under everyone’s confused gaze, Ye Zhongming ran to a secluded side street once more. He found a car to use his crafting skill.
A light shone and that car turned into a sticky liquid. Ye Zhongming used a level two demon crystal and it continued to change shapes. Ye Zhongming then threw in the ghost metal and the bone needles that the General Ant shot out to add extra materials. Moments later, a silver blade similar to Ye Zhongming’s Moon Edge appeared.
Ye Zhongming heaved a sigh of relief, luckily he succeeded. This 50% success rate made him feel like it was a scam.
“Moon Edge (Ming): Basic sharpness 20. Stat 1: Strength +10. Stat 2: Penetration +10.”
“Ghost Metal added skill: Full Strength Light: When user slashes out with the weapon, a blade light a third of the length of the blade will appear that has added 5 sharpness.”
Ye Zhongming’s body shook and he nearly dropped this new blade.
With the previous white blade as an addition previously, Ye Zhongming was happy with its stats. Basic sharpness 10, basic toughness 5 and also added two stats of sharpness 10 and strength 3.
One could say that the last Moon Edge allowed one to battle level two and even level three monsters.
But after adding in Ghost Metal, the new Moon Edge was so good!
Not only did the basic sharpness increase to 20, but the added stats also reached a terrifying 10.
This number didn’t seem large but Ye Zhongming had a clear understanding of it. Just the strength 10 was enough to increase Ye Zhongming’s slash strength by a fold.
But among them the level two Purple Cloud General Ants’ bone needle should have played a small part. But Ye Zhongming believed that the decisive one was still the ghost metal.
The unbelievable part was the added skill. Blade light! This was a skill that blademasters would only get when they reached grandmaster! It was a symbol of a high level close combat job.
Jobs had to go through Beginner, Basic, Intermediate, Advanced. In the apocalypse, most survivors reached such a stage. Grandmaster, Teacher and Extraordinary Grades above that were few and far in between.
Normally, survivors who reached Extraordinary would be called gods. God Blademaster referred to extraordinary blademasters. God Smith to talk about extraordinary grade smiths. Grandmaster and Teachers were close to extraordinary so they were called quasi gods.
The Grandmaster Grade would give one job skills like blade light which became the sign of a quasi god.
Ghost metal actually added this symbolic light! That obviously made him very excited!
Maybe this light wasn’t as strong as those of quasi god or god level jobs but the added 5 sharpness meant that his blade reached 25. This number along with a penetration of 10 gave him a feeling like he could slice apart the skin of the level four Chain Prisoner!
Ghost Metal was actually so strong!
