Chapter 235 - Getting New Equipment

Zhihui and Mors found themselves in front of the treasure building. The building is a single floor building and not that large. Its decorated very lightly, one might overlook such a place if they explore the sect campus. Zhihui could feel the eyes of many guards landing on her and her male companion.

The guards seem to be hidden around. Zhihui walks over to the door and opens it up. The couple enter the building with no difficulties. The inside of the building is not as simple as the outside. On the side are large metal statues holding different weapons.

At the very end is a small desk and a table. An old man sat at the table. Behind the old man is a wooden door with two grey color metal statues on either side. The old man has very little hair and the hair he has left turn white. His face is full of wrinkles. His eyes were half close, clouded, and unfocused.

"Ah so you came young Dragon couple. Come closer, I can't see you from so far away"

The couple did as the old man said. Soon arriving in front of the desk. The old man moves its head to face them. He extends out his arms. Zhihui bends down a bit as she allows the old man to touch her face and hair. Mors took off his mask as he bend down and allow the man to touch his face.

After touching their faces, the old man smiles softly.

"You are as beautiful as your mother Zhihui. Your husband is a handsome and reliable man. I am sorry I could not attend your weeding"

"Worry not elder Shi, I know you would have come if you could"

"Your personality has not change either in all of this years. Follow me"

The old man grab the wheel in his chair as he turns around and move towards the metal door. Zhihui and Mors follow the man without any complains. Once at the door, the old man touches it with his wrinkle and old hands. He did something that neither Zhihui nor Mors understood.

But whatever he did unlock the door. With a touch of his index finger, the man push the door wide open. Revealing a long stone corridor with no light. The man move down the corridor follow by the couple. Even with their commander stage body, they could not see through the darkness of the corridor.

They could only see 2 feet ahead of themselves. The old wheelchair bound old man is the only thing keeping them from wondering off and getting lost in this endless darkness. But as the first speck of light enter their eyes, the fear of getting lost dwindle.

The group arrive in front of another metal door, two large grey color statues next to the door. Light came from beneath the door. The man touch the door and did his thing. The door unlocks as he pushes it open with his index finger. The group enter the room, the door closing behind them the moment Mors took his final step in.

The room is long room full of display cases. Inside of this cases can be any piece of equipment. Between the display cases is another grey color statue.

"You may pick anything you wish in here"

"Thank you elder Shi"

The couple said as they started to look around. Zhihui knew what she wanted from the start. She arrive at the neckless and jewelry section of the room. She looks at the display cases one by one. Soon stopping in front of one as she points to a grey color bland neckless.

"I want this Neckless of Liquid Metal elder Zhi"

The elder even from across the room is able to hear the young lady as he nods his head. He moves towards her. Once he arrive he looks at the display case. He touches the glass with his index finger and makes the display case open up. He reaches his arm towards the neckless and grabs it. Giving it to Zhihui after he closes the display case.

'How did he know I was talking about this neckless from all the way over there'

Zhihui thought as she grabs the neckless and bows down to the elder.

[Neckless of Liquid Metal(Rare)]

[Allows the user to change the shape of the neckless at will, only having to pay Qi]

"Elder Shi, I want these vampire gloves"

Mors said pointing at a pair of black and red gloves. The gloves had a small red gem embedded into the black and red leather. The old man moves towards Mors as he has the same process as before. Giving the gloves after closing the display case.

[Vampire Gloves(rare)]

[Allows the user to heal themselves by absorbing blood. Or make themselves stronger by absorbing blood]

"Good, now follow me"

The couple follows the old man on the way back to the main room. Nothing of note happen on the way back to the room. Once inside the old man looks at them with a smile.

"That will be all from me, you may now leave this building"

"Thank you for everything elder Shi"

"Worry not, I am doing what I have been told to do"

"Have a great day elder Shi"

"Thank your young man. Think of these items as my late wedding gift. May the Celestial Dragon bless you both with happiness and health"

"You to elder Shi"

After their goodbyes, the couple left the building. They started to make their way back home to pack their things and go back to the village. There was still some time before the goblin invasion. Maybe the food buff project will finally show progress in the solid food department.
