Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 1029: Star Equipment

Named weapons had no specific meaning; they were more of a special mark of high-level equipment.

Like how humans named the strong mutated lifeforms.

Although this didn’t bring any extra benefits, it represented a form of recognition and respect.

Not many purple pieces of equipment could be named, and that was usually something that only seven-colored weapons had. This was also why Ye Zhongming was excited. It meant that this piece of equipment was decent.

“Earth Sand Moon Blade.”

“Ability 1, Sharpness +720, Toughness +780.”

“Ability 2, Moonlight, when waving the weapon, the blade would form sharp moonlight that slices the target. The length and strength of it correspond to the power of the user. Extra 70 sharpness.”

“Ability 3, Lifesteal Alliance. When the Earth Sand Moon Blade causes damage, the target’s injuries will worsen within a period of time, and the Moonlight will be buffed. Increasing between 1-5% basic stats.”

“Ability 4, skill memory. The blade will record some relevant stats when the user activates a skill while using the Earth Sand Moon Blade. Each time you use it, it leaves a mark on the blade, which increases the skill strength. With 100 marks as a basic number, every time you reach 100 times the basic stat, the skill will increase by 12% strength.”

“Ability 5, Moonlight Field. When battling using the blade, form a moonlight space around the user to strengthen the user’s body quality and also slow and stun enemies. Moreover, the moonlight will deal consecutive damage. The range is a 10-meter radius with the user at the center, and it can be expanded, but it would consume mental energy. The biggest range is 50 meters. The bonus effect has something to do with the mental energy and evolution level of the user.”
“Ability 6, Sandstorm Moonlight Tornado. User can cancel Moonlight Field and turn it into multiple powerful tornados to deal both earth and light elemental damage. The strength of each tornado has to do with the number of tornados summoned.”

Ye Zhongming looked at these skills and understood why it was named.

First, the bladeʼs basic stats were strong, be it sharpness or toughness. However, these were just the blade’s base stats, and they didn’t include skills. If you added those, this blade was extremely sharp.

Next would be the change to Moonlight. Moreover, moonlight would appear the moment you waved it, and its strength was comparable to that of the blade itself.

The new Lifesteal Alliance increased your own combat strength when the blade hurt your enemy. If you increase by the lowest 1%, then the sharpness would be close to 800. If you added 5%, that would mean 840!

This was another grade increase.

Skill memory and Moonlight field were both strengthened, and many restrictions were removed. The latter even had a new stun effect.

Finally would be the Sandstorm Moonlight Tornado. Although there wasn’t much introduction with this, it could replace Moonlight Field, so it wouldn’t be too weak. At the same time, it was both a solo and aoe skill that could be flexibly used based on the situation.

Even if you ignored the basic stats, the blade had a total of 5 skills.

As expected from a named weapon, it was very strong.

Ye Zhongming touched the shiny and sharp blade and felt its power.

Although he had the crystal energy demon gun, it didn’t fit with his main job. Undoubtedly, the Earth Sand Moon Blade was the main weapon that was most suitable for him.

He placed the blade down and looked at the remaining equipment. Ye Zhongming took this chance and started the third try.

But… He failed.

Ye Zhongming felt a slight regret.

Three attempts consumed a large amount of mental energy. Ye Zhongming rested and noticed that some Star Sand was collected. He observed them. Even if he had seen them before, he was still attracted by the bright colors.

Star Equipment was more famous than earth equipment. This didn’t mean that the former was better than the latter. Ye Zhongming guessed that it had to do with the Chinese being very humble and not showing off their Earth Equipment. At least on the outside, Earth equipment did not stand out, but Star Equipment was bright and shiny.

Ye Zhongming thought about it and decided to make an armor to test the effects of Star Sand.

He chose the safest method, preparing the armor and enchanting it. Although it wouldn’t be as strong as a fully formed equipment, he could get a blue piece of equipment if he succeeds.

Ye Zhongming took off the Thousand Leaf Phosphor Armor. This was an original piece that wasn’t strengthened with fertile soil. He followed how he crafted the blue armor to add ingredients and then used the mountain seal.

The armor changed very quickly. The gentle green light disappeared, and some blue and purple dots appeared on its surface. These specks started to become active and move around the armor.

Ye Zhongming was lucky and succeeded right away.

He took this beautiful, shiny equipment and looked at its stats and abilities.

Compared to Thousand Leaf Phosphor Armor, its base stats increased. Most of the skills didn’t change, but its strength did. There was one new skill--- Armor Shadows.

When fighting, you could summon armor shadows to terrify enemies around you, deal impact damage, and knock them back.

What Ye Zhongming paid attention to was the name of the equipment. Star Thousand Leaf Phosphor Armor! There was also the Star equipment bonus stats.

“Star Defense Equipment bonus stat Shattered Star. When needed, form a meteor ring around the wearer, which would protect the user in battle and deal with enemies in range. When all the meteors hit the target, the ring would explode to deal huge damage. The armor would be slightly damaged in the explosion and after you repair it, the ring will enter a cooldown of 50 hours.”
