Path of Dragons - A LitRPG Apocalypse (BOOK TWO STUBBING AUGUST 15)

Elijah sat cross-legged on the desert floor, staring at the items arrayed in front of him. There were three of them, though the most outwardly impressive was Thor’s spear, which was scaled to fit the man’s immense frame, with a haft of carved bone, and a sizable blade that could have doubled as a dwarf’s shortsword. However, looks could be deceptive, and he was far more interested in the other two items.

One was a simple necklace made of twine from which dangled three large fangs. Elijah had no idea what it did, but he could sense that it was no ordinary item.

However, the canteen weighed no more than any other container its size.

So, even if it wasn’t particularly flashy, the item was far more useful than any new weapon could be.

But as excited as he was about his loot, Elijah was far more interested in the other rewards from his fight with Thor. So, he finally allowed himself to look at his status:
