Chapter 801 Abak's Frigid Shoulderpads (Third Update!)

Chapter 1 An Idea

Nie Yan had an idea. He scrambled back into the tunnel and summoned his Shadow Assassin.

The Shadow Assassin was a physical entity with only simple thoughts, but Nie Yan could manipulate it to do many things.

The Shadow Assassin jumped down into the stone chamber and walked to the side of the stone coffin.

Nie Yan didn't care at this point. He was prepared to use some extreme measures. In any case, even if the Shadow Assassin died, he could simply resummon it after some time.

Under Nie Yan's command, the Shadow Assassin stood in front of the stone coffin. A strong ball of energy gathered in its hand. After a long while, the Shadow Assassin punched out at the stone coffin.

With a loud bang, the stone coffin shattered into pieces. The broken stone slabs shot out in all directions, smashing into the stone walls.

The stone chamber shook violently. Various traps densely swept towards the Shadow Assassin.

Looking into the stone chamber, countless arrows, throwing knives, and tiny needle-like objects rained down like a storm.

Nie Yan could already imagine the Shadow Assassin's fate.

Sure enough, a system message arrived. The Shadow Assassin was dead.

For a full three minutes, the traps in the entire stone chamber didn't stop.

In his previous life, he didn't know if anyone had opened that stone coffin. How many people would have to die to open that stone coffin!

After a while, the stone chamber became quiet. Nie Yan stuck his head in and looked around. The stone chamber was a mess, with arrows, throwing knives, and fine needles scattered everywhere. As for the stone coffin in the middle, it had been shattered by the Shadow Assassin.

Inside the stone coffin, there wasn't a corpse or a monster as Nie Yan had imagined. There were only some items, including some clothes. The clothes were so weathered that they had crumbled into rags. Only one item in the middle was emitting a dazzling light.

It was a pauldron, woven from black silk and shimmering with a dazzling metallic luster.

That was it!

Nie Yan's gaze instantly locked onto the item. This was probably a cenotaph rather than an ordinary tomb. Inside were just the deceased's clothes.

He still couldn't be sure if the stone chamber was safe. After thinking for a moment, he stretched out his left hand and shot out a strand of spider silk. The spider silk stuck to the pauldron. With a sharp tug, he pulled the spider silk back, and the pauldron landed in his hand.

He got it!

Nie Yan looked at it. It was indeed an Abak item. It exuded a coldness, like ice.

Abak's Frigid Shoulder: Requirements: 1500 Strength, 1200 Agility, Level 180. (Cannot be used)

Item Description: Only the Shadow Plunderer holding the Chapter of Order can wear the Abak Tyrant Set. A full set is required to wear it. Abak reveres strength. Only sufficient strength can maintain tyranny. Rebels die!

Item Attributes: Defense +1220, Strength +500, Agility +320, Frost Resistance +300, Frost Magic Damage -30%, wearer cannot be frozen.

This item is bound to the player holding the first volume of the Chapter of Order. It cannot be traded or dropped.

Including the Frigid Shoulder, this was the fifth piece of the Abak Set. There were three more pieces left, bringing him one step closer to completing the set.

The attributes of this Frigid Shoulder were quite good, especially the frost resistance. The resistance attributes of ordinary equipment were pretty good if they could reach 50 points. For example, the Molten Heart in Nie Yan's hand could only increase fire resistance by 50 points. The Abak Set added 300 points of frost resistance, which could directly ignore many frost-type spells. Moreover, with 30% damage reduction and immunity to being frozen, it could completely suppress frost-type mages.

For thieves, frost-type and lightning-type mages were the most troublesome because they were strong control-type classes. Once touched by their frost magic, they would be controlled. Especially when encountering Archmages, if they were hit by an Archmage's frost magic, it was basically game over. However, with this Frigid Shoulder, frost-type Archmages posed basically no threat to Nie Yan. Even if their control spells hit Nie Yan, they couldn't freeze him.

Good stuff. Compared to other set components, Nie Yan preferred this Frigid Shoulder.

This kind of thing was useful not only in PvP but also in certain specific quest scenarios.

Nie Yan put away Abak's Frigid Shoulder and looked at his inventory. He couldn't use a random teleport scroll here, so he could only return the way he came. Fortunately, some of the traps along the way had already been disarmed, so Nie Yan was relatively safe.

On the way, Guo Huai sent Nie Yan a message: "Where are you right now?"

"I'm doing a quest in the Sacred Mountains. What's wrong? Did something happen?" Nie Yan asked, wondering if something had happened to the guild.

"Not really. I'm giving you some information. In some areas of the eastern and southern parts of the Greenland Empire, Mo Race tribes and people from the Undead Empire have been discovered. They probably came from underground and have had some conflicts with our people. Fortunately, our people haven't suffered any losses. However, there's one problem we need to pay attention to. Recently, more and more Mo Race tribes and Undead Empire people have been arriving on the surface. Could the underground passage have been opened? Also, Sun, Wang Zhe Tian Xia, Tang Yao, and the other fourteen people want to go down into the underground. Are you going?"

"Mo Race tribes and people from the Undead Empire?" Nie Yan recalled. Calculating the time, the opening of the Undead Revenge and other expansion packs in this life was much earlier than in his previous life. The underground passage might really have been opened. "It doesn't matter. Even if the underground passage is opened, it's still very difficult for the main force of the Mo Race tribes and the Undead Empire to reach the surface. They can't threaten us. Those people are just here to give us glory. Tell Sun and the others that I don't have time to go underground for the next period of time. I still want to take a stroll in the Saturn Empire tomorrow. Let them go."

Hearing Nie Yan say that the people from the underground world wouldn't flood to the surface in large numbers, Guo Huai felt relieved. He asked, "You're going to the Saturn Empire. Do you want Sun and the others to go with you? That would be safer."

"No need. I'm just doing a quest, not looking for trouble with Angel Corps. If there are too many people, the target will be too big," Nie Yan said. He was doing the Heart of the Thief quest. Although he was alone, it probably wouldn't be easy for Angel Corps to hunt him down.

"Alright, be careful," Guo Huai thought for a moment and said. Since Nie Yan had already decided, he must have been confident.

"When Sun and the others go down into the underground, if they arrive in the Undead Empire, they can contact the people from Angel Fall. I'll tell them the trading method. Let them bring some equipment that is relatively rare in the underground and relatively cheap on the surface. When they come back, let them get some good stuff," Nie Yan said. This financial path had once helped Nirvana Flame tide over difficulties. He wouldn't forget it.

"Understood, I'll go take care of it now," Guo Huai nodded. Regarding equipment, he just needed to take it from the guild warehouse. The guild warehouse was full of equipment, with all kinds of equipment available.

Thinking of Angel Fall in the Undead Empire, Nie Yan revealed a smile. He was looking forward to the opening of the underground passage because he and Duo Duo, the chairman of Angel Fall, had an unwritten agreement. After the underground passage opened, they would deal with Angel Corps together!

Angel Fall had a strong presence in the Undead Empire, no less than Angel Corps and Nirvana Flame. If Angel Fall and Nirvana Flame cooperated, Angel Corps would definitely have no chance. However, Nie Yan also understood that this was a strategy of using one tiger to devour another. The Undead Empire and the Greenland Empire were in opposing camps. Sooner or later, there would be friction. If Angel Corps lost, and the two sides' common enemy was gone, where would Angel Fall and Nirvana Flame go? That was hard to say.

However, Nie Yan also had his own ideas. Angel Corps and the Century Financial Group were their biggest enemies! If they had a conflict with Angel Fall, belonging to opposing factions, he could mobilize the NPC army of the Greenland Empire to fight against them, so relatively speaking, it was safer.

Guo Huai informed Sun and the others of Nie Yan's reply. After making some preparations, they set off for the underground. With fourteen top-tier professions, even if they arrived in the underground, few people would be able to threaten them, so Nie Yan was relatively relieved.

Nie Yan came out of the tomb and stealthily moved around, avoiding the Dark Followers.

Since the transformation into a gnome had been dispelled, it was relatively difficult for Nie Yan to avoid these Dark Followers.

More than a dozen Dark Followers were walking around only five or six yards away from Nie Yan. The dark aura emanating from them seemed to be spying on everything here, giving Nie Yan a feeling of being seen through.

It was really difficult to avoid alarming them. Nie Yan's heart sank. Forget it, he activated Gale Steps and ran wildly forward.

His speed suddenly increased, and his figure flashed past.

The Dark Followers immediately discovered Nie Yan and waved their staffs.

Dark Shackles!

Shadow Entanglement!

One skill after another surged towards Nie Yan. Once entangled by Dark Shackles, he would be unable to move.

Just as the tentacles of shadow were about to bind him, Nie Yan activated a Death Immunity, blocking these skills.

A black swamp suddenly appeared in front of Nie Yan, covering an area of about a dozen yards.

Nie Yan stopped in his tracks. If he took another step forward, he would sink into the deep mud. With pursuers behind him, he couldn't afford to stop at all. He quickly jumped up, flying more than twenty yards high, jumped over the mud, and just as he landed, he used another Shadow Dance, disappearing from the sight of these Dark Followers.

Even if the Dark Followers wanted to chase, they could no longer find Nie Yan's trail.

Done. Nie Yan looked back at the Dark Followers, who were getting farther and farther away, revealed a smile, and ran quickly towards the exit of the dimensional space in the distance.

Nie Yan walked into the crack. When he looked back, he found that the entrance to the dimensional space had disappeared without a trace.
