Chapter 189: Perfect New Equipment
"I didn't expect that in such a short time, Mr. Kane has already become a Silver Explorer," Nando remarked with some admiration as he glanced at Kane.
"Not at all, you're too kind," Kane replied.
"Then, Mr. Kane, please follow me." With that, Nando led Kane out of the room and downstairs.
As they walked, Nando occasionally chatted casually with Kane.
"A few days ago, we received border information stating that an explorer helped the council thwart a Black Mist conspiracy. I was wondering who it could be, and it turns out to be Mr. Kane."
"At that time, I was merely trying to protect myself."
"That group of terrorists are indeed madmen, but Mr. Kane, you should be careful from now on. If those lunatics find out it was you who frustrated their plan, they will surely trouble you."
Hearing this, Kane couldn't help but frown and asked, "Won't the council help keep my information confidential?"
"Of course, they'll keep your information confidential, but in this world, there are so many strange magic items or skills. Even the most tightly guarded information can be uncovered, so Mr. Kane, you mustn't be careless."
"Yes, thank you for the reminder. I'll be careful."
Nando's statement was indeed not wrong. After all, this world is crazily absorbing knowledge and power from other worlds.
Even if these worlds are just fragments, they still bring countless strange powers and magical gadgets to this world. Even resurrection is not too rare, let alone finding hidden information.
Before long, Kane followed Nando to a basement of the council.
They looked at the massive, heavy stone door before them.
Nando explained slightly on the side, "After all, these pieces of equipment are quite precious, so they need a well-protected place."
After saying this, he operated something, and the stone door slowly opened.
"Follow me, Mr. Kane, and be careful not to touch anything inside," Nando said as he stepped through the stone door.
Kane followed closely behind.
Upon entering the stone door, there was a wide rectangular corridor.
On both sides were transparent glass cabinets of varying sizes, all filled with assorted equipment.
The equipment was clearly categorized, and labels with descriptions were stuck above the cabinets. The first half of the corridor contained copper-colored equipment.
Soon they arrived at the area for silver equipment.
After a few steps, Nando stopped. They were nearing the corridor's second half, which seemed to contain golden equipment at the end.
Nando operated something on a nearby glass cabinet, then opened it and took out a necklace.
"Here, this is the equipment you need, try it on," Nando handed the necklace to Kane.
Kane took it and examined it. A teardrop-shaped transparent sapphire was embedded in a silver hoop, threaded through by a thin blue cord.
The inside of the sapphire shimmered as if filled with flowing water, emitting a faint blue glow, with the subtle sound of water flowing.
Kane appraised the piece of equipment.
[Tear of the Lake Lady]
[Necklace]
[Color: Silver]
[Attributes:]
[Greatly increases magic recovery speed]
[Moderately increases total magic power]
[Skill: Magic Tears] 3/3 (Accumulates one drop every two days, with a maximum of three drops. Using one drop instantly restores all magic power within the body.)
[Description: Legend says, when a river or lake is filled with magic, a Lake Lady, formed from pure magic and water element, will be born. When positive emotions fill the Lake Lady's heart, she will shed a tear.]
Alright, I'm done pretending, I'm invincible now.
This was Kane's most genuine feeling upon seeing this equipment.
All the properties of this equipment seemed tailor-made for Kane, and the attributes were so well-matched that he wouldn't trade it even for a piece of golden equipment.
Because the attributes and skills on this equipment were practically on par with golden equipment.
With this equipment, Kane's shortcomings were directly addressed, making him a versatile warrior.
A battle could hardly trouble Kane over magic anymore, and he could easily manage either single-target or group attacks. Even taking the front line as a defender was no problem.
Now, aside from healing, he is the ultimate utility player of the team.
"It seems Mr. Kane is very satisfied with this equipment," Nando noted, observing Kane's expression.
"Of course, I'm very satisfied with these pieces of equipment," Kane replied.
Seeing Kane's satisfaction, Nando also smiled.
He led Kane out of the basement and into the hall.
"Thank you for your help, Mr. Nando. I'll take my leave now."
"I was just guiding the way. See you next time."
After bidding farewell to Mr. Nando, Kane also said goodbye to Adoma and quickly left the Explorer's House, heading swiftly back to the inn.
Once back at the inn, Kane dove onto Cotton Candy, rolling around.
After venting his emotions for a while, Kane got up, put the necklace around his neck, and finally concealed its appearance.
Feeling the attributes the equipment provided him.
The medium increase in total magic power from the equipment increased his own total magic power by about 30%.
Finally, magic flowed from Kane's palm.
A cone-shaped object about the size of a human head appeared beside Kane, with the long conical tail end not pointed but featuring a round opening.
The tail of the cone was controlled by four wing-like strips resembling two sides of a wing.
Magic power continued to pour from Kane's hand, maintaining four cone-shaped objects by his side.
Kane had long designed this mechanical structure, only not having used it before due to previous magic power limitations and Qi Long's limitations.
This was something designed by Kane based on floating cannons from films of his past life, able to operate within a 10-meter range around Kane.
Instead of just simple conical bullets, they now shot magic power bullets designed by Kane.
Kane's usual pastime was designing various mechanical structures, which, with the help of Origin Skills, he could always run experimental builds, immediately identifying issues or impracticalities.
These four little things from now on would be Kane's immediate ready firepower bombardment, fully supported by his current magic power.
Maintaining just these four magic mechanical structures was equal to Kane's recovery speed.
