<h4>Chapter 296 ?Treasure Vault[PIC]</h4>


    In truth, the "Venomous de - Poison Dragon w" had always been underestimated by Tyler.


    [Click paragraphment for detailed info of the venomous de ]


    [*The red parts in the picture are the upgraded parts of the venomous de, as mentioned in previous chapters.]


    The seemingly insignificant 6 points of venom damage per second could umte to 90 points per second when stacked to 15yers.


    Although 90 points of damage per second may appear to be a mere scratch, if sustained for a minute, it would amount to 5,400 points of damage, and 16,200 points if sustained for three minutes.


    Yet the life energy of Frost Giant Wolf, ZaneThis is "mere" 12,118 points.


    .


    Scratches, too, can be lethal


    .


    Before executing his venom stacking n, Tyler''s only concern was whether the venomous status effect would be effective against the Frost Giant Wolf.


    Fortunately, after attacking its eyes and legs, Tyler sessfully applied ayer of venom to the Frost Giant Wolf


    All that remained for him to do was to draw the Frost Giant Wolf''s attention by acting as bait, while his shadow duplicates relentlessly attacked the wolf''s wounded legs with the Venomous de, stacking the venom up to 15yers


    .


    The true terror of the "Venomous de - Poison Dragon w" lies in the fact that its venom does not dissipate over time but continues to affect the victim until death, provided no antidote is administered


    In the final confrontation, Tyler calcted that the Frost Giant Wolf had only about 20 seconds of life remaining.


    However, even with its life energy severely depleted, the formidable foe still maintained a vigorous fighting spirit and formidablebat capabilities.


    Tyler''sst hit, despite being partially blocked by two shadow duplicates, instantly drained over 1,800 points of life energy, costing him more than half of his life


    Had Tyler not devised the "Shadow Behind" technique in the nick of time, or if the Frost Giant Wolf had concealed a closebat trump card, the oue of the battle would have been reversed.


    .


    In the cold cave, Tyler dissected the Frost Giant Wolf''s body while warming himself by the fire.


    Since he had to continue his journey, he could only carry a limited amount of items, so he took the wolf''s fourth-tier magic core and a pair of eyeballs, storing them in his bag.


    The value of the fourth-tier magic core was self-evident, but the Frost Giant Wolf''s eyes were also noteworthy.


    Even after the wolf''s death, its eyes still emitted a gloomy blue glow. Tyler''s intuition told him that these were precious materials, so he carefully removed and stored them.


    To his surprise, the eyeballs immediately froze upon being separated from the Frost Giant Wolf''s body, indicating the presence of a special mechanism within.


    As for the rest of the Frost Giant Wolf''s body, Tyler set it aze, giving it a fiery burial and preventing it from rotting and stinking in the deste cave.


    .


    Uponpleting the aftermath, the thick ice on the treasury door melted.


    Tyler approached, but instead of pushing the door directly, he summoned a shadow duplicate at a distance, instructing it to open the door and scout ahead.


    As the door opened, Tyler saw a rectangr, spacious storeroom.


    The room''s height and width were both approximately five meters, but the length was difficult to discern due to the dim lighting provided by a few luminous magic stones, making the far end appear almost pitch ck.


    Tyler observed various equipment haphazardly disyed on both sides of the storeroom. It was not neatly arranged, but rather chaotically scattered.


    This crude storage method was indeed characteristic of a goblin treasury.


    The shadow duplicate remained in the treasury until its duration ended, dissolving into darkness. During this time, no abnormalities urred.


    Tyler initially wanted to summon another shadow duplicate to bring out a couple of pieces of equipment for inspection, but he abandoned the idea upon noticing a faintly glowing magic circle beneath each item.


    (It seems that taking anything would trigger an rm.)


    Upon discovering the security mechanism, Tyler felt somewhat relieved. In this situation, he was not afraid of security measures, but rather of not detecting them.


    Thus, Tyler inserted an arrow at the entrance of the treasury as a potential shadow escape route and cautiously entered the treasury, holding his breath.


    ·


    The most nerve-wracking part of entering the treasury was the first three seconds inside. After that time passed without incident, it was deemed rtively safe.


    Tyler used his identification ability to examine each piece of equipment until he had inspected the entire treasury.


    In total, there were eighty-four pieces of equipment in the treasury. Even without a security mechanism, Tyler could not carry them all.


    At times like these, Tyler envied those in "simple" difficulty otherworldly stories, where the most basic andmon "interdimensional storage space" existed. However, in this impossible difficulty prison star world, such treasures only existed in fantasies.


    Moreover, due to the security mechanism, Tyler had to evacuate immediately after taking any equipment, meaning he could only choose lightweight items that could be worn directly.


    (What should I take...)


    While pondering, Tyler reached the deepest part of the storeroom, where there was another "treasure" he could not carry.


    .


    Adjacent to the innermost wall of the treasure vault, there was a pool with a surface area simr to that of a water tank.


    The pool''s water was ck and appeared somewhat frightening, but through Tyler''s identification ability, he learned that it was actually a precious facility called the "Pool of Evolution."


    ording to the identification information, one could simply throw equipment (excluding divine weapons) into the pool, wait for a short while, and then obtain the evolved version of the equipment… Moreover, the Pool of Evolution had no security measures.


    Despite this, Tyler had no means of taking the Pool of Evolution with him, and the identification information also stated that the pool had only one use remaining.


    After much deliberation, Tyler ced the Shadow Sword Dragon Steed into the Pool of Evolution.


    He decided to choose the equipment to take from the treasury based on the evolution of the Shadow Sword Dragon Steed.


    ·


    The pitch-ck sword sank into the dark water, and then there was silence.


    ·


    Tyler quietly waited for five minutes by the pool. During this time, the idiot loli asionally popped up to taunt Tyler, scaring him by saying that the Shadow Sword Dragon Steed must have been swallowed and that he had suffered a great loss.


    Fortunately, a gorgeously designed longsword floated up from the dark water in the sixth minute, silencing the idiot loli.


    The longsword then floated towards Tyler, seemingly waiting for him to pick it up.


    Tyler did not hastily ept the evolved sword but instead examined it closely.


    The sword featured a unique double-edged structure, emitting a gloomy blue glow from its de. The cross-shaped hilt was adorned with numerous dark blue crystalline decorations resembling fur, and even a purple crown ornament at the end of the hilt.


    At first nce, Tyler thought: It''s over ??, it seems to have evolved into a shy but impractical weapon.


    He felt that the sword might shatter after a few strikes and that it might be more suitable as a decorative sword for nobles.


    However, after using his identification ability to examine the longsword''s information, Tyler immediately realized that he should not "judge a sword by its appearance."


    This magnificent longsword was indeed a worthy sessor to the Shadow Sword Dragon Steed!
