Reborn: Super God of War

Chapter 462 Truth

Drip... Drip...

While walking down the stairway to the Munjo Treasure Room, all one could hear was the unending dripping sound of water. Lin Jie followed the NPC in front of him closely as he explored the place while going down the thousand flights of stairs slowly.

Suddenly, he felt something cold on his face. He wiped it with his hand, although it was dim, he could still see a red liquid.

It was blood!

Lin Jie raised his head and was even more shocked. The ceiling was like purgatory with mountains of swords that pierced through countless of Munjo Ogre corpses. It looked like an anatomy scene where all the corpses were dissected. The expression of all these Ogres was all of pain and suffering; most probably, they had endured great torture.

“Hehe, actually the Munjo Treasure Room was originally a place which imprisoned criminals. It’s nothing, but if you have the courage, you might be able to find some good stuff.” Rocca’s face betrayed a faint expression of disdain as he thought, ‘The humans from alternate realms are mostly timid and cowardly, afraid of trouble. They would even be frightened by lowly Undead, such as Skeleton Spirits, even if countless treasures were hung here, would you dare to take them?’

However, Lin Jie just smiled as this was nothing to him! He stretched out his right hand, and the power of Death Grip gathered to form a humongous purplish-black hand. It grabbed the corpse of an Ogre, which was bloated. These Ogres had died for God knew how long, but blood was still spilled, it really was a weird species!

As he pulled the body closer, the Heart of Enrage within Lin Jie started thumping and instantly absorbed the remaining blood within the Ogre. That Ogre instantly dried up like a mummified corpse, and in the blink of an eye, only a layer of skin was left.

Ding...

A small gem dropped from the internal organs, which were sucked clean.

—’You received [Eye of Munjo Gem].’

[Eye of Munjo Gem]: Special item, only one can be engraved at most. It allows the weapon’s attack to have a 5% chance to cause its target to enter Line Of Sight Exposure state and appear on your small map. Effective distance is 100 yards, the effect will disappear once the distance exceeds 100 yards.

“Tracking-type gem?” Lin Jie was elated. As known by all, the job which had the strongest escaping ability in the wild and most annoying was undoubtedly Bandit! With the Eye of Munjo Gem, as long as one crossed swords and successfully triggered the special effect, then the Bandit’s position would be known. It was a divine item and a must-have when battling Bandits.

Also, if one encountered special monsters, which knew how to turn invisible in dungeons or in the wild, that item would be of great help.

The value of the Eye of Munjo Gem went without saying!

Lin Jie immediately continued and slashed out Wind Rider Blade Aura Executioner onto the ceiling relentlessly. At that moment, countless dissected body parts fell down like rain, and Heart of Enrage instantly absorbed all the blood, converting it into proficiency! It was a pity that after devouring the Ogre King’s Blood of Munjo, the proficiency from devouring these loose bits of blood was already nothing to him.

These corpses were all sucked dry, revealing the Eye of Munjo Gems from within. After searching thoroughly, Lin Jie had obtained a total of 38 Eye of Munjo Gems. The chance of trigger was from 3% to 6%. Their grades were different, so there was a slight disparity in terms of the chances. However, their values were definitely high!

Only Lin Jie would have dared to do such a thing as if it were a normal player, they would already have been frightened stiff from seeing all those corpses on top of their heads. Where would they have the mood to search for loot?

Lin Jie’s bravery also left Rocca surprised.

Rocca calmed himself down before saying, “These Ogres committed a felony for stealing Eyes of Munjo Gems, they planned to exchange those for that Demigod’s reward to convert into other races. That’s why they were imprisoned here.”

Lin Jie nodded like he was in agreement but thought, ‘What does the reason for their imprisonment have to do with me? Knowing that they had gems in their corpses is the most important thing!’

Lin Jie raised his head and continued searching. Suddenly, he discovered a small dark chest! Such a dark chest was actually placed on the ceiling and hard to find.

“Feather Drop Spell!”

Lin Jie took a powerful leap and opened the dark chest, he had taken a purplish-red gem from inside. The inside of the gem was like an eyeball, spinning around from time to time, which caused Lin Jie to almost throw the gem away.

[Eye of Munjo Gem]: Special item, only one can be engraved at most. It allows the weapon’s attack to have a 20% chance to cause its target to enter Line Of Sight Exposure state and appear on your small map. Your attack will deal an extra 10% additional damage to the target inflicted by Line Of Sight Exposure state. Effective distance is 100 yards, the effect will disappear once the distance exceeds 100 yards.

“Enhanced version?” Lin Jie combined it with his Broken Blade, but he discovered that there was a wave of rejection from the weapon. It was evident that the Broken Blade’s grade was too high and was unable to accept such a gem. That was a given as the Heart of Gratitude, which was obtained from killing Mona previously, could not be bound to Broken Blade either. It could only be bound to the Death Light Helmet, this Broken Blade was too tsundere...

The Eye of Munjo Gem was engraved with the Death Light Helmet in the end, since it could unleash its effect this way too.

After looting the hell-like prison and leaving a ground of scattered Ogre skin, the two of them continued walking down. After pushing open the last door, they entered the long-anticipated Munjo Treasure Room!

Inside the Munjo Treasure Room!

It was such a majestic place! Just as they entered, countless of Dark Gold light rays could be seen, almost blinding them! One could only see countless weapon and armor shelves... Dark Gold equipment, like greatswords and giant hammers, were placed on the shelves.

On the left, there were up to 100 Alonum Ore Bottles. Alonum Ores were known as Vacuum Ores as they could cause the interior to become a vacuum, the items stored would not deteriorate, which meant it was another version of the players’ backpack that could be carried around! Within the hundreds of bottles were sweet-smelling pills. In the huge bottle at the furthest left, there was dark blue liquid inside!

‘Brave Warrior, I want it.’ Within the Follower Space, the Mermaid Princess suddenly sent a message into Lin Jie’s head.

“Alright!” Lin Jie promised. The treasure room was as big as a City Leader’s Mansion. It was too overwhelming for one’s eyes to feast on. The Manju Ogres were once the rulers of The New Age, so how much wealth had they amassed? Now from what Lin Jie saw, it was simply breathtaking! Even the treasure room of the Dark Shrine could not be compared with the Munjo Treasure Room!

In another corner, there were countless pet eggs, Behemoth specimens, and special materials... If he could carry everything back, then wouldn’t he be able to directly omit the process of working hard to earn money and skip straight to the peak of one’s life with immeasurable wealth? He could even marry a fair-skinned and attractive lady, who was equally wealthy, right?

Lin Jie was still searching around, and finally, his gaze was locked on to a corner. There were a few murals there! If Lin Jie guessed correctly, they were the murals of the enhanced version of Anti-Slash.

“Hey, Rocca, you said that if I could move them, these are all mine, right?” Lin Jie licked his lips like he was a beggar that had seen a mountain of gold. He walked towards the middle with his eye gleaming, but in reality, he was gradually moving towards that bottle of liquid and the murals.

Rocca’s face was in a daze as he walked towards the center of the treasure room. There was the left half of the crown. He calmly pieced the crown together and wore it on his head. In that instant, an obscure wave of power was released from the crown, which then surged into Rocca’s body. The tiny NPC’s body, which was no different than a Dwarf, actually swelled up. In but an instant, his muscles bulged out explosively, and his head also transformed. Fangs grew out, his eyes turned red, and even a second head had grown out!

“Ah... I’ve finally returned.” Rocca had become a humongous Ogre that was three meters tall. It let out a weird peal of laughter, the sound waves were like a surge of sea waves that dissipated. The whole treasure room shook, and countless items fell to the ground! The Ogre Prince Rocca was back! He did not care about Lin Jie but walked towards the corner stuffed full with pet eggs.

These pet eggs were all Prehistoric Behemoths and Primordial species, if they were hatched, they would be ten times stronger than those wild beasts in The New Age now. There were a total of 300+ eggs!

The Ogre Prince opened his bloody mouth, and those pet eggs instantly all cracked, forming mists of blood and life essence, which were all absorbed by him.

After absorbing the life essence, the body of the Ogre Prince, which had been sealed for so long, instantly became energetic. The surface of his skin was filled with the aura of Behemoths, scaly armor, tough skin, soft armor, wings, and so on, but they were all devoured by the Munjo Ogre’s body, enhancing himself.

“Hohoho... Demigod, when I failed to absorb your strength then, you summoned the Wind Rider Sword Saint to save you. What a pity that this idiotic Barbarian made a mess of the Munjo Underground City. He did not expect that we had sealed you inside a pet egg, right? So what if he sealed me? I swallowed your head, though I was unable to digest it and was sealed by him, I’ve absorbed the strength now! I have even learned Wind Rider Blade Aura Executioner, you’re finished! Hahaha!” The Ogre Prince let out a loud roar and shattered the largest pet egg.

A humongous body was revealed—It was actually a Barbarian Swordsman, who had lost his head! He was kneeling down while leaning on his sword! No, it was a Barbarian Demigod!

Actually, the real background of the Munjo Underground City was: Ogres had captured the injured Barbarian Demigod, and the king had planned to research the immortality of the Demigod and seal it. Meanwhile, the Ogre Prince Rocca had been wishing to obtain the Demigod power, so he had swallowed the Demigod’s head, which in turn enraged the king. Thus, Rocca was directly banished. However, the Demigod, whose head had been bitten off, had not died but had sent out a distress call, summoning the Swordsman Wind Rider Sword Saint, who was the strongest in The New Age then!

The Wind Rider Sword Saint had arrived at the Blade Peak Canyon and immediately met Rocca, who had been driven out. Unfortunately, the Wind Rider Sword Saint’s strength had not been enough then, and he was also a little chunnibyou then, meaning he couldn’t bear to kill people. Under the circumstances where he had been unable to remove the power within Rocca, he could only seal Rocca, transforming him into a short and tiny Dwarf before throwing him outside the Blade Peak Canyon.

Meanwhile, after entering the Munjo Underground City, he could not find the Demigod, who had been sealed into a pet egg inside the treasure room, so he had no choice but to leave. The Demigod had seen that he had no chance of survival, so he had cursed the king, forcing him to suck the blood of his race to be able to survive before entering eternal sleep.

The story next was Lin Jie entering the canyon, then killing all the remaining Ogres and sweeping clean the Munjo Underground City. Currently, Rocca entered the treasure room and obtained the crown that could break the seal. He returned once again, and now all he had to do was to absorb the Demigod’s power!

“Hahaha, after absorbing you, I can revive my tribesmen and continue building my Ogre kingdom!” The Ogre Prince laughed boisterously.
