    Chapter Sixty-OneBeyonder Weapons

    The lady whose face was hidden completely by the shadow of her hood looked around the room and said, “This time, both weapons are of a type convenient to carry.”

    “One is the Whip of Slowness. It is modeled after a certain magical item and can constantly create invisible restraints, little by little affecting your opponent and making his movements gradually slower. The longer the battle continues, the more obvious its effect becomes.

    “It can still be used for another two years. Four hundred and fifty pounds, or the potion formula for Barbarian.”

    That whip sounds rather decent. It feels a little close to the spider-silk aspect of a Demoness of Pleasure… But would it not look a little strange for little Sun to use a long whip?

    Klein spoke in his deep, hoarse voice. “Can those invisible restraints affect spirit-type creatures? For example, a wraith.”

    The lady slowly shook her head.

    “No.”

    Without waiting for others to ask, she continued introducing the next item. “The second weapon is called Hurricane Axe. It can increase the user’s movement frequency and running speed. It has a fifteen percent chance of producing a certain degree of paralysis in the enemy, and a five percent chance of creating a bolt of lightning. If used during a thunderstorm, the probability of lightning appearing can rise as high as fifty percent.

    “These numbers were all summarized from experiments and a large amount of data.

    “The effects on this weapon can be maintained for no more than one year. Five hundred and twenty pounds, or the potion formula for Barbarian.”

    This is much stronger than the Whip of Slowness. If its Beyonder effects did not last only one year, the price would definitely be higher than this… Right. According to little Sun’s descriptions and the scenes I vaguely glimpsed, above the City of Silver and its surrounding region, lightning flashes at all times. The periods of high frequency count as day, and the periods of low frequency count as night. That is very close to a so-called thunderstorm environment…

    If it truly works, then in little Sun’s hands, this Hurricane Axe would count as a real magical item. Every swing would have a fifty percent chance of cleaving out lightning. Absolutely powerful!

    Even if that does not work, just looking at the Hurricane Axe’s basic Beyonder effects, it is still quite a good weapon and suits little Sun’s needs very well. As for the issue that it can only be used for one year, that is even easier to resolve. One year from now, with little Sun’s digestion progress and the City of Silver’s Beyonder resources, as long as the potion formulas keep up, he ought to be Sequence 6 no matter what. By then, his weapon will certainly need to be replaced anyway!

    In the span of a few flashing thoughts, Klein basically decided to buy the Hurricane Axe.

    At that moment, the Apothecary muttered, “An axe is convenient to carry? I feel like I have heard a joke. I think turning it into a wrench would be more suitable. And I say, why can’t you sell pistols with Beyonder effects?”

    “I will do my best to collect similar items.”

    The lady emphasized the word “collect.”

    “Very well. Friends willing to purchase either weapon, please make an offer.”

    Before Klein could speak, a man at the edge of the long sofa said, “Hurricane Axe. Five hundred and twenty pounds.”

    The lady waited a few seconds, then asked again, “Does anyone wish to bid higher?”

    “Five hundred and thirty pounds,” Klein added ten pounds.

    The man from earlier immediately replied, “Five hundred and fifty pounds.”

    …This… Little Sun, if he raises it above six hundred pounds, I will not buy it. I will get you the whip instead!

    With a clear strategy, Klein called out very calmly, “Five hundred and sixty pounds.”

    He worked hard to project the attitude that no matter what price the other party named, he would add ten pounds on top.

    And the six hundred pounds he had just received happened to give the other party invisible…
