955. Don't underestimate the supporting roles, you can cry bitterly even if you are not the protagonist
"However, this also shows how powerful these items can be if the danger and cost of use are not taken into account.
If it weren't for Mr. Zhan Shen, you are now favored by the Court of Death and don't have to worry about some fatal negative damage. I wouldn't have thought of letting you come here to choose weapons."
"It sounds very powerful...am I really that powerful now?"
Zhan Shen looked at his palm and hesitated.
"Believe me, your current strength is more than the limit you believed in... Huh?"
Just as he said this, Meteora seemed to feel something, and suddenly paused at his feet, feeling a little confused.
"What happened? Mr. Estreich?"
"...No, it's nothing. It seems like I have a bad premonition."
Meteora thought about it carefully, then seemed not to care about the premonition just now, and continued to step down the basement steps...
…·…·…
"It is indeed the subconscious world of Meteora. The number of books is really astonishing..."
In an endless white space, Xingji raised his head and looked around at the bookshelves floating here.
[Everything in sight is a book, hell or heaven?——Star Engraving]
He wrote a sentence in his mind that was similar to a famous quote, and he felt very satisfied. Then he turned his attention to the corpse sitting on the chair next to him——
Logically speaking, Hoshiki should call her Kaai Ryu-chan.
But after all, Xing Ke is not a famous detective who has lost his memory, and he has not changed into the detective-specific skin with a charm value of +10, so for the time being, we can still call this corpse's real name, Asukai Muji.
The body had no obvious trauma, and the dress was intact. She stopped breathing and heartbeat while sitting on a chair reading a book, and then slumped on the back of the chair with a smile on her lips - it can be said that she walked very peacefully.
"Then the problem really lies with this book."
Xingke murmured to herself, without any respect for the body of the deceased, and took away the book she had read before her death from under her palm.
But at the moment when the book left Asukai Muji's hand, her body turned to dust in the blink of an eye and disappeared in this space.
"...Ms. Asukai, I'm sorry, please rest in peace."
It seems that the Death Garden, which brings together the power systems of countless worlds in the infinite void, is indeed different from the ordinary murderer's world of Ms. Asukai.
At least among the thousands of ways to die in that world, there was no such thing as directly turning into ashes or destroying the body and destroying all traces.
He didn't even give Xing Ke a chance to resurrect the corpse. He was really meticulous in his work and his killing was flawless... He was worthy of Meteora.
In the blink of an eye, I looked at the book in my hand again, and the title was clearly——
""Alien Invasion·Extra Chapter~Kaai Ryu-chan's vacation trip with three famous detectives~"?
What is this? A new breed of cursed book?"
In the star-carved feeling, this book does not have any ominous or dangerous atmosphere. On the contrary, both the title and the vertical painting on the cover give people a warm and beautiful feeling.
"It looks like a daily comic about if lines."
Without the slightest hesitation, Xing immediately started flipping through the pages, just like he would review an ordinary new comic, casually flipping through it.
Whether it is the real world or this subconscious spiritual world, [Death] has never been associated with fear for Xingke.
Then, as expected...
"This is just an ordinary comic, and it's quite interesting."

"[Invincible Sword]——
The effect is: absorb magic, crush, and erase everything cut by this sword, whether material or magic, will be completely wiped out. The power is determined by the amount of magic absorbed, and there is almost no upper limit to the effect.
The side effects are: just like his name, the person who uses him will gradually lose his mind, feel that he is "invincible", and absorb the magic power of this sword without restraint, until the magic power is exhausted and die.
Moreover, the magic power consumed by this sword is so great that most people will be drained of magic power, life force and soul just by getting close to it."
Meteora handed a one-handed sword wrapped with a magic seal chain to Zhanshen and introduced it.
Then he turned around and took down another sealed sword from the wall——
"[Invincible Sword·Type 2]
The effect is: the person holding this sword transfers his [existence] to another dimension at the cost of magic power, neutralizing the opponent's attack, and allowing the sword holder to obtain an alternative invincible defense state.
The side effect is: the effect of this sword is passive, as long as the sword is held, the effect will be activated, and it also consumes a huge amount of magic power, and the user will be killed if he is not careful.
Of course, you can't cause harm to your opponent in a state of invincible defense. In other words, when you hold this sword, you can't hurt anyone at all."
"The names of these two swords... are they from the same series?" Zhan Shen felt like he didn't know how to complain.
"They are indeed the same series and created by the same person."
Meteora put the two swords together, shook his head helplessly and said:
"Their creator originally wanted to create a truly invincible sword, but in the end all they made were defective products worthy of the name."
"However, in theory, if a person with full magic power and impeccable sword skills can use two swords at the same time... he can indeed be called [invincible].
Is that so? Your Excellency Esterreich."
Zhanshen looked at the two swords in front of him with a solemn expression, as if recalling some unbearable past, and asked in a low voice.
"...Yes, this is the most suitable farewell gift for you right now that I can think of.
Your current magic power is provided by the largest [energy pool] in the Death Courtyard, so there is no need to worry about the problem of magic power depletion."
Seeing Zhan Shen's gloomy expression, Mei Te calmly waited for his answer:
"Of course, if you are not satisfied, I have other alternatives..."
"No, Lord Estreich, they are very suitable for me. It's like they are swords specially made for me."
——It’s even appropriate to the point of being terrifying.
"It's just that the shapes of these two swords remind me of some memories from the past that I don't really want to recall... I'm sorry, please let me use them."
Zhanshen took the two swords respectfully and looked down at the cracks on the two swords under the chains sealed by the spell. Dark hatred and despair seemed to be about to burst out from the depths of his eyes.
The "cracks" on the sword are not real cracks, they are just the means by which the makers of these two swords carved magical inscriptions.
