Chapter 17, 1 bend, 7 times
"What is this?"
"A new alchemical weapon?"
Undine didn't sense anything from the patterns and assumed that the latest update to the North Dungeon had added an alchemical weapon to the BOSS level.
"No, this was originally just an ordinary longbow."
Caesar stroked the patterns and said, "These patterns, they are the new rewards for the BOSS level."
"I don't know what they're called, but their function seems to be to 'enchant' weapons, giving them extraordinary abilities that have never been seen before."
As he spoke, Caesar drew his longbow, and seven arrows of wind element instantly materialized.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The seven arrows struck the seven trees with incredible precision, leaving Undine speechless.
An ordinary adventurer would only think this is very strong, but she is also an archer, so she understands that it's not a matter of strength.
This is practically cheat code.
What normal elf can fire seven arrows from a single bowstring and accurately hit seven targets without using any special magic or skills?
This violates the design principles of bows and arrows.
"See, this is the effect after they 'enchanted' my bow."
"I call this effect 'one bend, seven turns'."
"Can I try?" Undine asked shyly, her hands itching to try.
She knew this request was outrageous, but she couldn't help it; she really wanted to experience the feeling of bending seven times in one go.
"certainly."
Caesar generously tossed the longbow over.
Undine let out a shriek and quickly jumped up to catch the longbow, afraid of breaking the precious object.
The moment she touched the bow and arrow, a stream of information flowed into Undine's mind, and she instantly understood the extraordinary function of this longbow.
Undinera Arrow, seven arrows converge, her spirit simultaneously divides into seven parts, each corresponding to one of the seven arrows.
Each part of her mind is independent yet perfectly coordinated, without causing any harm to her subjective cognition.
It felt like she had drawn her bow seven times, only the timing had overlapped.
As Undine's soft fingers loosened, the arrows whistled out and accurately struck the seven targets she had aimed at.
Throughout this process, the only magic she used was the energy consumed in condensing those seven arrows.
Compared to bending the bow seven times, she not only saved six times the time, but also saved the physical effort required for six bow bends.
In battle and adventure, with such a longbow, Undine is certain that she will have an incredibly exhilarating time, and she alone will be the most terrifying line of defense on the battlefield!
"How are you feeling?"
Caesar's question startled Undine, who then realized that she was not the owner of the weapon.
"I've never liked Ryūya this much before."
Undine reluctantly returned the longbow to Caesar, and asked impatiently,
"Kegel, is this pattern still present on the boss floor? How often does it respawn?"
"The patterns are on the sixth layer; to be precise, their true forms are on the sixth layer. The BOSS layer merely provides the opportunity to capture them."
Caesar explained, "The way to obtain them is the same as obtaining succubi; just use your life force to draw lots."
"Kegel, please escort me to the BOSS level. I'll give you money, how about twenty gold coins?"
Undine pleaded, clasping her hands together and bending over. Her breasts, tightly wrapped under the green fabric, showed a barely perceptible bounce.
"Can."
"Kegel, you're such a wonderful elf!"
When Undine left the Elf Forest at the age of forty to become an adventurer, she had never met such a helpful and kind person as Kegel.
Normally, as an elf, she is not well-liked in adventurer groups, and no adventurer team is willing to cooperate with her for a long time.
This is a common experience for elven adventurers.
This seems to contradict the stories circulating on the mainland about heroes fighting demon kings.
In the story, the hero's teammates always include an elf.
But after a few years of adventure, one will realize that elves are only suitable for temporary work.
The reason, of course, is that they level up too slowly, and their growth rate cannot keep up with that of other races.
Due to cultural reasons, elves rarely stay in groups with their own kind for long when they are out and about, so if they choose to be adventurers, they are mostly alone.
Of course, fairy tales aren't entirely lies.
Once an elf awakens the [Elf King] class, a hero will come to them on their own. Their leveling speed is completely unlike that of other elves.
Now, Undine seems to see a glimmer of hope in solving this problem, and perhaps she too has the chance to become the protagonist of the story.
It would be great if this new reward could only be used to enchant bows...
No, how could I think like that? It's contrary to the noble name of an elf.
Undine unconsciously had a wicked thought, then pressed the button again.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
On the way to the BOSS level, Caesar would occasionally take out his longbow to shoot down monsters, firing at least three arrows at a time, which made Undine's eyes gleam.
"I want it! I really want it!"
With Caesar, the dungeon lord, leading the way, the two quickly passed through the first four levels and arrived at the succubus level.
If she hadn't met Caesar, Undine would definitely have lingered here, not necessarily to experience anything, but certainly to satisfy her curiosity.
But now, she was completely controlled by the rabbit-headed man's intense desire, and he didn't even bother to spare the succubus a glance, keeping his eyes fixed on the longbow in Caesar's hand, his gaze as fierce as a wolf's.
"Quick, quick, Kegel, don't worry about these pink skeletons, let's get to the sixth floor!"
Undine resolutely refused the free service offered by the succubi to the first three people who arrived there, and dragged Caesar away.
Caesar was naturally indifferent, only finding Undine's pursuit of intensity both laughable and absurd.
She has forgotten her original purpose for entering the North Dungeon.
Finally, the two hurried and made it into the sixth floor before all the other adventurers.
This was a desolate land, with gray plains filling Undine's view, and nothing else on the plains.
Just one glance was enough to make Undine feel an inexplicable sense of oppression, making it hard for her to breathe.
"look up."
Caesar's calm voice came from behind.
Undine looked up and saw that there were no clouds in the sky, only clumps of chaotic grayish-white things drifting around.
These grayish-white objects had blurry outlines.
Swords, knives, axes, clubs, bows, halberds... Undine noticed that these outlines all seemed to be weapons.
【see through】
Undine instinctively used the skill, but received no feedback.
This shouldn't be the case. Even if the other party is level 40 or higher, she should at least see a string of question marks.
"What is that?"
"I have no idea."
Caesar lied through his teeth: "I tried to attack them, but no matter what magic I used, it was like hitting nothing at all."
"They seem to be immune to all harm."
