Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Chapter 927: Chapter 120: Arrival at the Cave Hell Pit—At Last, Encountering the Night Wanderer Corpse (Part 2)

Basically, the further you go in, the more treasures you can retrieve from the wreckage and the Corpse Demons.

Su Li had to thank that purple Wind of Death; if these fallen adventurers hadn’t turned into Corpse Demons, the treasures on them would have been completely picked clean by the goblins before Su Li got a chance to clear them.

These goblins, goblins, and goblins love to collect treasures, wealth, and loot, then find hidden corners to stash them.

If Su Li cleans up most of the main monsters, including the Anaric Giant Spider and Corpse Demons, this area can be opened up to the Ranger Knights and Adventurers of the territory. They will be very interested in coming here to continue clearing and exploring.

If some goblin-buried goods are found, even if it’s only one Golden Crown, it would be worth it.

The team continuously defeated and cleared four or five Corpse Demons, and then the Half-Elf hero Ashfield suddenly exclaimed, ”A rare level ring!”

This exclamation immediately drew everyone’s attention and amazement.

Su Li also immediately rode a Death’s Claw forward a few steps, looking at the ruby ring in the Half-Elf’s palm, from which a faint blood-colored light shimmered.

Half-Elves always seem to have some inexplicable affinity with witchcraft items, making them experts in collecting loot.

You must be careful with these sneaky folks, otherwise they may stealthily hide some items while clearing loot.

Fortunately, they are inherently timid and, at most, hide some ordinary items, but such rare levels of things require thorough tracing; they don’t have the courage to hoard them.

A knight from the Redema Church recognized the ring at a glance and asked excitedly, ”Is it the Blazing Comet? The inner layer of its band should have the Gryphon Knight Order mentor, Devout Magnus’s, inscription: ’Light must be sheathed by darkness.’

Su Li picked up the ring from the Half-Elf and examined it; the band was created by weaving Imperial Vibranium and Mithril, forming a pattern of a roaring gryphon devouring a Double-tailed Comet. The surface was embedded with a Blazing Flame Gemstone, emitting a dim glow even in darkness. This was also one reason the Half-Elf dared not stash it, as in the corpse of a Lost Demon the ring looked like a glaring flame, the faint fireball drawing attention. Whether hidden in their pants or pockets, the flame would be immediately noticed, just like a fire on their buttocks.

When Su Li turned around the ring, he indeed saw a line of gilded inscription inside, in reddish-golden color: ’Light must be sheathed by darkness.’ However, this saying seemed like only half of it, and another ring should have a phrase along the lines of ’Light unsheathed must illuminate the dark dawn,’ otherwise, the inscription feels too despairing.

Su Li then asked, ”Do you recognize this ring?”

A knight of the Redema Church immediately replied, ”This gemstone was one of the spoils of Devout Magnus’s defeat of the Vampire Count, the Imperial Engineering Master forged it into a rare level ring with Vibranium and Mithril.”

”Its successive owners were all renowned Knight Commanders of the Redema Church, who wore this ring to clear countless evils and purify thousands of heresies. Until the previous owner, Blood Eye Christopher Eric, disappeared with this ring while tracking a group of Necromancers. Didn’t expect it to end up here.”

Though a treasure of nature and treasure belongs to the virtuous, and this item has long been one of the Redema Church’s emblematic items, it now belonged to Su Li! After all, he retrieved it from the Corpse Demon.

If the Redema Church wanted this Blazing Comet, they could go ask the Corpse Demon for it.

Su Li then asked, ”What abilities does this ring have?”

”It has three abilities, two passive ones, which are to banish Witches, allowing Redema to protect the wearer from harm by enemies, such as those using Black Magic.”

”Curse Words: Proper prayers will cause despair among heretics and evil monsters. When the wearer prays or uses Divine Magic, it causes a morale shock within the area, even making some low-tier creatures collapse and flee. It is highly effective against powerful creatures, reducing their attack, defense, and morale.”

”Of course, its strongest feature is the signature [Redema Comet]; this ring binds to 3 blazing missiles, shaped like the famous Double-tailed Comet of Redema, capable of being fired at chosen enemies within range. It causes terrible area damage to enemies while boosting the morale of all Imperial Knights along the way, revitalizing knights in intense battles, rekindling the courage of those who lost the will and fled in shame, leading them back to the front line.”

Indeed, that is quite powerful, a veritable nemesis of aberrations, an evil-slayer.

Su Li then directly accepted the ring, intending to pass it to Hilude later since Hilude currently did not have a rare-level ring, making it perfectly suited for her equipment.

Even in a territory of such fantasy level, a rare-level equipment is still a rare commodity.

Acquiring such a rare-level ring was an unexpected delight.

Just as he was about to order an advance, Dietrich came over and said, ”Lord, given the pressure and situations I observed during healing, I sense something might be amiss.”
