Chapter 41: Back to the Start
A new Grand Quest, an achievement, and a few rewards. All of them were just so sudden, Xu Tao was overwhelmed for a moment.
"First, let’s check the rewards." But thinking about how messed up the Lost System was, he let it slide quite easily.
The rewards automatically entered his Storage Ring, so he had to first scan its contents for the newest items added. It didn’t take him long to find them, of course.
"This..."
Now, in his hands, were two items. One was a small seed, about sesame-sized. It was so small he feared that if it got blown away, he’d have to use a magnifying glass to look for it—but that’s if it somehow managed to hide the pure Qi that was emanating from it.
"This seed is even more potent than a 100,000-year-old Spirit Grass!" he growled in shock.
He wasn’t sure what a Small World Tree was, but if its seed was this powerful, he could only look forward to the fully-grown tree itself. He’s not one to look at immediate profits only to lose out grandly from rushing things!
After carefully returning the small seed into his ring, he then looked at the sword.
"Heaven-Defying Sword... Error 404?" he parroted the name he read from the notification, staring at the sword with eyebrows raised. "But this... is just the hilt, isn’t it?"
No matter how he turned it around, flipped it, or shook it, the thing in his hand was just a hilt. Its design was simple, but quite grandiose, with dragons adorning the handle and the sword guards.
But the middle was blank.
