Chapter 83 - Lava Set Fragments
"Laugh? I'll laugh at your mother! Fuck!"
Seeing the female ghost with that same mysterious smile again,
Zhou Han instantly got furious, his temper exploding,
and he directly slashed out a stream of sword qi.
Before the sword qi could even reach her,
the female ghost had already faded into space, as if she had disappeared completely.
The sword qi passed through empty space without causing any effect.
After waiting for a long time, the female ghost never appeared again.
Zhou Han guessed that she had completely left.
"Damn it, just you wait! Acting all mysterious and creepy!"
"When my strength increases, I'll definitely make you go on maternity leave!"
Zhou Han shouted toward the empty air, venting his frustration.
But then he shook his head and found it a bit funny.
She really was a female ghost—no need to pretend at all.
"I'll have to be more cautious using this skill in the future! If I can avoid using it, I should."
A wise man does not stand beneath a collapsing wall.
This female ghost was extremely powerful.
Before figuring out her intentions,
Zhou Han absolutely would not allow any potential risk to remain around him.
"The unknown and mysterious effects brought by enhancement are getting more and more…"
From previously summoning a sword spirit like Ao Zhen,
to now summoning a powerful female ghost when using a skill,
Zhou Han could only sigh at how terrifying his unique SSS-level talent was.
"This time I really took a loss. Not a single piece of equipment in sight, nothing at all!"
Zhou Han walked over to where Yan Qinglong had died and inspected the area.
There was truly nothing—not even a strand of hair. Even if equipment had dropped,
it had probably all been devoured.
He had originally wanted to see whether the Amulet of Safety had dropped,
but now he could only give up in disappointment.
"Total waste of effort. Got nothing at all."
Zhou Han shook his head with a bitter smile. He saw Fat Tiger and the others still trembling,
their legs weak, too scared to move.
The countless ghostly figures rushing at them earlier
had made them clearly feel the aura of death.
They had nearly died on the spot.
"Ah! Senior! Please don't kill us, we were wrong to underestimate you!"
"Spare our lives! I don't want to be eaten!"
"Please show mercy, Senior! Our Wild Blood Adventurer Group has never done anything evil! Please let us go!"
"I have a fragment of the Lava Set here, I'll hand it over willingly!"
…
These members of the Wild Blood Adventurer Group, upon seeing Zhou Han approach,
were so nervous they were on the verge of tears.
The scene of countless ghosts devouring everything had completely terrified them.
With so many people in the adventurer group, yet he could wipe them out with a word.
In their eyes now,
Zhou Han was even more evil and terrifying than demons.
That was why they lay on the ground, constantly begging for mercy.
"What are you doing? Did I ever say I was going to kill you?"
"You even stood up for me out of goodwill. I'm not some heinous villain!"
Seeing them like this, Zhou Han didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
With such a handsome face, how did he look like a bad guy?
"Ah! We…"
"Senior, you're really letting us go?"
"Thank you, Senior, for sparing our lives!"
Hearing Zhou Han's words, they were stunned for a moment.
Only after confirming there was no killing intent in his eyes did they finally relax.
"Alright, get up."
"But you just mentioned Lava Set fragments! However many fragments you have, I want them all!"
The Lava Set was Platinum-grade, one level higher than the Gold-grade Ghost Set.
Zhou Han was also planning to switch to a stronger set.
It just so happened that in the Thunder Ruins, Lava Set fragments could drop.
Earlier, Zhou Han had already gotten one fragment, but due to interference from the Azure Dragon Adventurer Group,
he hadn't had time to check it.
"Senior, we have a total of two fragments. Please take them!"
Fat Tiger carefully handed over the fragments, still showing fear in his eyes.
He had never imagined that the young man he met just a few hours ago
would be this powerful. Even some of the old monsters in Azure Thunder City
might not be stronger than him.
How ridiculous—it turned out he had kept trying to persuade him,
thinking he was just a rookie.
Zhou Han didn't stand on ceremony and directly took the fragments.
[You have obtained Lava Set Fragment x2. Do you want to view it?]
"View!"
Zhou Han said silently in his heart.
[Lava Set Fragment]: Collect 50 pieces to synthesize the Platinum-grade Lava Set.
"50 fragments required?"
Including the one he got earlier, Zhou Han now had 3 fragments.
The drop rate for this item was already low, and it required 50 fragments—
the difficulty was indeed quite high.
"I can only see what happens after enhancement."
Zhou Han wasn't sure what would happen after strengthening it.
Thinking of this, he couldn't wait and began to try.
In the end, he discovered it could only be enhanced 5 times, since it was just a fragment and its material had heavy limitations.
[You have successfully enhanced 5 times. Please check the attributes!]
After checking, Zhou Han's face lit up with joy.
Only 4 fragments were needed to synthesize it now.
[Lava Set Fragment +5]: Collect 4 pieces to synthesize the Diamond-grade Red Lotus Set.
Moreover, the resulting set would be Diamond-grade.
Extremely powerful.
Now he only needed one more fragment.
The difficulty wasn't high anymore, and Zhou Han instantly felt motivated.
"Very good. These 2000 gold coins—consider it me buying them!"
Zhou Han handed the gold coins to Fat Tiger.
He wasn't the type to take things by force,
and besides, 2000 gold meant nothing to him.
"T-this… Senior, I can't accept this. The market price is only about 500 gold, you've given double the price!"
Fat Tiger's hands trembled as he spoke nervously.
"Take it. The extra is your reward for your kind reminder."
Zhou Han said with a smile. After that,
he ignored them and left directly.
"Brother Tiger, we really made a fortune this time! All these materials can be sold for gold!"
"Today's luck is amazing. We ran into such an expert. So many materials from those Blood Shadow Bears—it's basically free money!"
"Alright, Xiao Hong, stop looking. He's already far away. A man like that isn't someone you can have."
"I… I…"
After Zhou Han left, they finally dared to speak in low voices.
Fat Tiger patted Xiao Hong on the shoulder to comfort her.
Someone like him
would have a much broader future. His stage would be the stars and the sea.
…
Zhou Han continued deeper into the Thunder Ruins,
pushing forward all the way and destroying many monster strongholds.
He was getting closer and closer to the location of the Evil Swordman.
With flashes of sword qi,
the massive Golden-Scaled Crocodile in front of him
was sent flying and exploded violently.
"Hm? Finally dropped a Lava Set fragment!"
Seeing the fragment appear beside the corpse,
Zhou Han was delighted.
He had killed who knows how many monsters, yet none had dropped before.
Just as he was about to give up and planned to buy it after leaving,
it unexpectedly dropped.
Now he had successfully gathered 4 fragments.
The Diamond-grade Red Lotus Set was finally within reach.
Zhou Han was extremely excited and couldn't wait to check the set's attributes.
