Amber Sword

"Lord, you know?" Antitina was taken aback again.

"Ahem, more or less..." Brand coughed, thinking to himself, could it be that this era doesn't have this thing yet? Could the Dissolution Crystal actually have been invented by this girl in front of him? That couldn't be right, could it? But he still replied vaguely, "The Tower Wizards have something similar, so I was just asking casually."

"It's quite a coincidence," the noble daughter whispered, "I named it the Dissolution Crystal too. In fact, I made it from the core waste material of a Magic Transmission Device, because its effective method is to use magic power to pierce the stable framework of the Material World laws, rapidly activating the Elements and causing an explosion. That's why I named it that."

So it really was you who invented it!

Brand couldn't help but give the noble daughter another look. This thing was of great significance. Although it was gradually phased out in the later stages of the Second Black Rose War, it had a massive impact in the early stages. At that time, players unanimously believed that this thing was the equivalent of a bomb in the Magic World. Unfortunately, its structure was too unstable, making it unsuitable for transportation and storage, and its power seemed a bit limited in the later stages of increasingly intense wars.

"Do you have more?" he asked.

"Just a few," Antitina immediately replied, "If you need it, Lord, I can make some overnight."

"Overnight?" Brand was stunned. That's not right; didn't it take at least half a month to make these things?

Seeing Antitina nodding, Brand almost thought that history had changed, so maybe the young lady had actually invented something different. A Dissolution Crystal that only took a few hours to make? To say that it was a cheat would be an understatement. But just as he was about to ask, he saw Hu Que anxiously waving at him from the direction of the forest below.

Why is this guy here again? Weren't they cleaning up the battlefield with the Red-hand Soft Girl? Brand was momentarily stunned but, seeing that Hu Que seemed eager to come up, he quickly said to Antitina, "If possible, I'd like one or two pieces for each person. Oh, and these things are very unstable, right?"

Antitina looked at him in surprise, then nodded. She felt herself becoming numb to her Lord's foreknowledge.

As expected! Brand breathed a sigh of relief, thinking history had not changed. He said, "I'll teach you a way to temporarily stabilize it later, but the effect is limited. The rest you'll have to research on your own."

"Ah?" The noble daughter couldn't help but let out a small cry.

He knows about this too?

Just when Antitina thought she had at least become a bit tougher mentally, her pride was dealt another blow. She had thought she still had some advantage in the Magic Domain, only to find out Brand seemed to know even more than she did. Little did the noble girl from Brags know that this time she had wronged Brand a bit; he actually knew nothing about Magic Technology. In the past game, that skill was only available to pure profession players, and young warriors like him were destined to have no access to it.

But even without knowing, it didn't stop Brand from knowing some materials and formulas, right?

While Antitina was still in shock, Romantic finally noticed that the only person who could restrain her had left. Miss Merchant let out a long sigh of relief and then gratefully said to Antitina, "Thank you, Antitina."

Antitina glanced at her and quickly shook her head, thinking as long as you don't cause me any trouble, I'll be infinitely grateful. Truth be told, she was quite frightened of this young lady now.

But Romantic didn't seem willing to let go of the only person she could spar with. She thought for a moment and asked, "By the way, Antitina, did you see that thing?"

"That thing?"

"Yeah, when we were buried. There seemed to be some light dots like fireflies flying up from the hillside towards us. Did you notice?"

"This..."

"Was there?"

"I think there was..."

…

When Brand saw Hu Que, he noticed the experienced Mercenary Captain was holding a thick, black-covered book. He was slightly stunned. This thing was undoubtedly the relic of the Dark Priest, at least the three lightning-shaped scars on the cover gave it away. But what amazed Brand was:

Red Hand Girl is truly Red Hand Girl. She actually managed to get equipment from the notorious 'poor' Dark Priest. If this happened in the past, she could've shown off her luck on the forums. Too bad there were no forums here, making Brand a bit uncomfortable.

Besides, it wasn't him who found it.

"What is this?" he asked.

Hu Que looked at him mysteriously, saying nothing, and just opened the book lightly in front of him.

Brand took one look and was instantly petrified—
