Chapter 582: A Summons to the Imperial Palace
The Blackflame Ice Flower Sword added 1,000 Attack and increased Marcus’s total Attack by another 200%. The moment he saw the numbers, he immediately swapped out the Corpse Demon Dark Soul Sword and equipped the icy flower-shaped Divine Artifact.With all his buffs still active, his Attack stat shot straight past ten thousand. ’Amazing!’
With a one-handed Divine Artifact in his possession, he could finally put away the two-handed Ice-Fire Twin Dragon Hoe and return to his favorite class setup: a Knight wielding a massive shield in one hand and a powerful sword in the other. It felt much more natural to him.
Marcus examined the Blackflame Ice Flower Sword again. It even possessed the Iceflame Black Serpent Men’s signature skill, Blackflame Ice Flower, which he’d already experienced firsthand. The ultimate skill, Ice Flower Blossom, was even more impressive. Not only did it put him into a powerful defensive state, but it also restored 5,000 Health every second.
This trip to Twin Wing Island had been a huge success. Of course, the sword was only a Level 50 Divine Artifact, so compared with some of the truly outrageous equipment that existed in the game, it could only be considered mid-tier. That only made Marcus more eager to find something even better.
Unfortunately, Divine Artifacts weren’t exactly common. They had poured an enormous amount of time, effort, and resources into forging this one, and even then, they’d started with a completed blade blank. The truly legendary equipment was on an entirely different level and would be far more difficult to obtain.
Still, Marcus had no reason to complain. The relatively low level requirement was precisely what allowed him to equip such a powerful weapon at his current level. Practical gear was the best gear.
Marcus couldn’t help grinning as he looked toward his ladies, and judging from their expressions, they were even happier about the new weapon than he was.
After bidding farewell to the blacksmiths, Marcus returned to his Dragon’s Roar mansion and spent some time soaking in the hot spring before going to say goodbye to the Town Lord. It was time to return to the mainland.
There was already far too much waiting for him now that he had reached Level 50. He still had the Golden Rabbit King’s treasure map to deal with, the mystery surrounding the missing Roaring Tiger Squad, the materials Alana wanted him to gather, and the Blood-Fiend Fruit he needed to deliver to the Dragon Dynasty.
Then there was his trip into Demon Clan territory to search for the dark treasure required to hatch the Dark Violet Sky Dragon, not to mention Elven Canyon. One thing after another had piled up until his list of things to do seemed endless.
"Brother, once we’re back on the mainland, it won’t be so easy for us to return here. The girls and I are going to stay a few more days before we head over."
Amber gave him the update. They still hadn’t gotten their fill of Twin Wing Island’s beautiful beaches and other attractions, and with all of them hovering around Level 46 now, they were also reluctant to leave just as they were approaching the level needed to make their way onto the leaderboards.
"Fine by me."
After saying goodbye, Marcus activated a Town Portal Scroll and returned to his mansion in Dragon’s Peak Citadel. The moment he arrived, however, he activated Wanderlust.
