--- Chapter 306 ---
Huo Yuhao and Huang Qiu'er stood on the spot.
Many creatures surrounded them.
They are Phantom, who has taken over the shapes of many animals on the island, from tiger, wolf, snake, and even elephant.
Huang Qiu'er tightened her grip on the Golden Dragon Spear because this fight would be annoying. After killing the Silverback Ape, she realized that her weapon wasn't very effective against these creatures.
Their bodies are weird, and Golden Dragon Spear must be stabbed rapidly in the same spot to break their defense.
"Master. I have to warn you about something..." Huang Qiu'er suddenly said.
"What is it?" Huo Yuhao replied, looking for the Phantom Lord so that he could get this over with quickly.
Huang Qiu'er stared ahead, "This island is weird. I tried using my Martial Soul, but something prevented me from using any of my spirit skills."
"The only exception is my Blood Soul, which I constantly use right now."
"You couldn't use your spirit skills?" Huo Yuhao glanced at her.
Huang Qiu'er nodded weakly, "Yes."
"It doesn't feel too good."
Huo Yuhao frowned, 'That's weird. I can use my spirit skills freely with no restrictions whatsoever.'
[Tiny World's Suppression] Evo answered Huo Yuhao's confusion.
[Right now, the Tiny World is in a state of full alert. It restricted outsiders and weakened them considerably]
[You don't feel any different because your existence is beyond that of Tiny World's Suppression]
[The same rules won't be applied to Nico Robin, though]
[She's a native, after all]
"Thank you for stating the obvious last, Evo." Huo Yuhao snorted.
Even then, Huo Yuhao was a bit worried about the girls from the Draconic Deus as they are outsiders and have yet to mature in the Spirit Master's field.
His best guess is they are skilled enough to thrive with pure martial skills and Haki alone. Scathach has taught Valerie well enough, but Rossweisse is different.
But as a Valkyrie, Rossweisse should be doing fine.
'How worrying.' He sighed hopelessly.
'Maybe I should contact Oceana to lift the suppression a little?'
'No, I can't. The Tiny World's spirit is currently in a deep slumber.'
'Such an annoying world.'
"Master, they are here!" Huang Qiu'er shouted in distress.
Huo Yuhao saw a wave of Phantoms surging from the woods, charging them at full speed. His mood was 'already' ruined.
He must vent some of his annoyance.
Thankfully, some punching bags arrive and offer themselves straight to Huo Yuhao's foot.
"Evo."
"Choose a new Divine-grade Class to master."
[What Divine-grade Class would you like to tackle, Host?]
"Pagma's Incarnation." Huo Yuhao's indifferent voice echoed in the forest, giving Huang Qiu'er a shudder.
[Ding! You have chosen Pagma's Incarnation Class!]
Huang Qiu'er stared at Huo Yuhao with a shocked expression because she had never seen him this annoyed, not even when he fought and bullied the Sea God!
Huo Yuhao stretched his left arm and said, "Come, Palu."
Awoo~!
A purple slime-like creature appeared from an azure swirl and landed on Huo Yuhao's shoulder. It has defining characters besides the chubby cheeks and adorable expressions.
However, no one should ever look down on this little creature because it's the administrator of Huo Yuhao's treasure vault and his reliable assistance in making artifacts and weapons.
Even EAS, Huo Yuhao's soulbound weapon and currently the ruler of CyberSpace, didn't dare to fight Palu.
The reason is crystal clear.
Huo Yuhao didn't just let the slime-like creature manage Azure Emperor Vault but also gave it the strength to destroy anything he created if deemed dangerous.
[Pagma's Incarnation Class activated]
[Please design and create your first weapon's blueprint]
"A dull sword." Huo Yuhao casually replied.
The design is simple.
The sword is around 70 centimeters long, including the handle and ring-shaped guard.
The blade is four centimeters wide and 7,77 millimeters thick.
Overall, it was a standard sword with a dull edge.
[The design accepted]
[Rating: 69/100 or roughly C-grade]
Huo Yuhao cared less about the rating, as he focused more on his ideal weapon to beat things to a pulp. After all, a good inventor won't stop due to mere scores.
[Please choose the material]
"Xuanwu's External Spirit Bone, Abyssal Ogre's Spine, and 1 unit of pure Aradium."
[The materials accepted]
[Rating: 150/100 or roughly Low-EX]
Huo Yuhao got Xuanwu's External Spirit Bone after killing a 300,000-year-old Black Turtle to test his Techno Archon Class.
Abyssal Ogre's Spine is the best resource he got when opening resource packs a while ago. It has a quality that Huo Yuhao wants on this dull sword.
As for Aradium. It was also 5th Dimensional Material, and a pure one could cost a whole galaxy.
One unit of pure Aradium alone takes Huo Yuhao hours of negotiation to acquire. Fortunately, those mechanical lifeforms are always rational on pricing and payback.
Staring at the material's rating, Huo Yuhao curled his lips. Many people in the 5th Omniversal Order would probably curse Huo Yuhao for wasting precious material on a dull sword, but he didn't care.
[Ding! You have triggered a class's sub-quest]
[Objective: Create your first weapon]
[Reward: One of Pagma's Incarnation Class's skills unlocked]
[Time Limit: None]
[Penalty: None]
[The sub-quest is mandatory, so it was automatically accepted]
[Think of it like a tutorial]
"Palu!" Huo Yuhao poked the slime on his shoulder.
"It's time to make a new weapon!"
Woowoo~!
Purple slime grinned and huffed white vapor like a running train.
Nebula Thunderfire is burning inside.
Huo Yuhao opened his inventory and let Palu eat the precious external spirit bone, a crimson-colored spine, and black particles that shine under the shadiness of this forest.
[Ding! Palu (Toolbox) has used Great Apostle's Creation(SSS)]
Intense heat came from the purple slime, and Huo Yuhao casually walked into the horde of Phantom.
Under Huo Yuhao's guidance, Palu rapidly processed the materials and let mental power control the Toolbox to temper the whole thing.
Mental Force is invisible, yet it hammers the materials into the desired shape.
The steam lessened, and Palu's inner body heat lowered gradually.
Huo Yuhao is 'nearly' finished with his part
He only needs to add the finishing touch.
He bit his thumb and dripped blood into Palu's body, allowing the slime to bind the forming dull sword to him. Technically speaking, this dull sword is qualified as a Divine Weapon.
Also, the dull sword was partly external spirit bones that could grow alongside Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao doubts it would develop spirituality, though.
ROAR!!
A giant tiger lunged at Huo Yuhao.
Pu!
Palu spewed the newly made weapon to Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao caught the weapon's handle, staring at the dark blade with blue and red veins.
[You have created your first weapon]
[Rating: 122/100 or Entry-EX]
[Please name your first creation]
"Hydrogen." Huo Yuhao calmly watched a giant tiger's teeth a few meters away from himself.
[Ding! You have finished the class's sub-quest]
[You have unlocked Pagma's Incarnation Class's sword skill]
[Sweep]
Huo Yuhao's eyes flashed with mysterious light as his body moved and swung the new sword with 10% of his strength.
A black curtain of water appeared and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
BOOOOOOOOOM!!
The giant tiger got reduced to nothing.
Huo Yuhao pointed the black sword at the Phantom, "I hope you're enjoying this beating."
"Because you know? I'm pretty annoyed right now." A smile that's not a smile plastered Huo Yuhao's handsome face.
At the same time, a system panel appeared beside Huo Yuhao and showcased Hydrogen's characteristics.
[Name: Hydrogen]
[Type: Weapon]
[Grade: EX(entry)]
[Owner: Huo Yuhao]
[1st Power - Dark Water: Every slash accomplished by Hydrogen would create waves or curtain, which is 1,000 times heavier than the wielder's weight]
[2nd Power - Abyssal Homing: Every attack accomplished by Hydrogen would always hit, targeting the enemy with resentment of Abyssal Ogre that is akin to a deadly curse]
[3rd Power - Universal Battery: Every attack that killed an enemy would suck life force and recover durability or strengthen Hydrogen in an overall sense]
[Description: A dull sword created with pure intention to beat everything on its path, possessing mystical abilities. This weird weapon isn't 'actually' meant to cut or hack. It was 'completely' meant to erase everything from existence with a jet-black curtain]
[A dull sword with frightening powers...]
