Reborn: Super God of War

Chapter 264: Emilia’s tear

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At the same time, a huge number popped up.

-6,000!

The highest increase in Damage Dealt by the Revenge Fire Gun was 1,000 points, while the highest increase in Damage Dealt by the Illusionary Bullets was 500 points. In addition to the 200% augment from the explosion and finally the effects from the 100% damage increase towards the Boss, such a formidable Damage Dealt was created.

The girl stared at Lin Jie for a long time before she used all her strength to raise her right hand with her thumb pointing upwards, bending it slightly... This was, she meant ‘thank you’?

Lin Jie pulled out the Fire Gun from the mouth of Emilia, her mouth which had devoured players had been shot full of holes, but one could still distinguish a smile which remained on her face.

Ding~

—’Congratulations, you have killed Epic Boss Stray•Emilia! You received 150,000 EXP and 100 Guild of Light Reputation.’

—’Congratulations, you are the first player to kill an Epic Boss, you made an accomplishment [Creating Epic History], Knowledge +100.’

That was the experience points reward for an Epic Boss, compared to its fearsome battling powers, the experience points were negligible. However, the value of Epic Bosses was still quite high. Lin Jie checked the mission list, [Revenge], and [Mentor’s Trial] were both shown as completed. He rubbed his hands, it was time to see his luck!

In The New Age, there was only one of each Epic Boss. However, the types of items that could be dropped from the Boss were in the tens and thousands. For example, if one heard rumors that an Epic Boss had hidden the Treasured Dragon-Killing Sword, it was very normal for them to obtain an “Exquisite Nail-clipper” that the Boss usually used to clip its nails after they spent all their effort killing it.

This all depended on one thing—Luck.

With good luck, one could earn a fortune, but if one had bad luck, then it would even be better to kill small monsters.

However, this kind of heart-thumping feeling made one addicted.

“Whether my luck is good or not all depends on the drop this time, open!”

Ding~

—’You received [Emilia’s Tears].’

[Emilia’s Tear]: Consumable item, able to be used on encrypted items, and break encryption methods under Sub-Legendary.

That was an item, which was similar to a key. Lin Jie was quite depressed as that item did not seem to be much useful. In his memory, there was only one high-level mission that involved solving encryptions named [City of Light Serial Killer Case]. There was a total of 27 secrets that needed to be solved, and after completing it, one could obtain a powerful Anti-Stealth Skill.

That mission was extremely complicated, and every part of the mission was random, so even if Lin Jie was reborn, it was not possible for him to complete the mission perfectly, or else he would have already gone to do it. Meanwhile, this [Emilia’s Tear] was obviously a one-time item.

“Huh?”

When Lin Jie planned to keep that item, he seemed to have seen some scenes within the tear. The steam in the air cooperatively became thicker and turned into the best screen. The scene in the tear was projected into the air as if it was a movie.

There was a small girl about only two to three years old, her naked body was glittering and translucent while her eyes were big and sparking. She was curious about everything, so she touched and looked around or placed things into her mouth to bite it but her legs—it was as though they were wrapped in snakeskin, intimidating anyone looking at them.

What was more frightening was her living environment as she was surrounded by Three-Headed Basilisks that were hideous and fearsome. However, this group of snake monsters could smell the familiar scent of the same race from her, so they did not eat her. On the other hand, the despise in their eyes was evident. The other young snake monsters could eat beetles, pythons, bats, and rats, but Emilia could only eat some soil to survive.

After three years, the snake monster blood in Emilia had awoken and grown two snakeheads. Not only so, but her lower body had also become hard and thick, no different from other snake monsters. She had no status due to the mutation of her body, so without any other choice, Emilia could only dive into the ocean to catch some small fish or prawns as food.

Immediately after, a cargo ship wreck made the snakeheads’ mouths water, and just when they wanted to satiate their hunger, they were stopped by Emilia. The confrontation between the mindsets of humans and wild beasts appeared. In the end, Emilia was bitten full of injuries by the two snakeheads, but she awoke her magic powers and faced them down. She was covered all over with cuts and bruises but still saved all of the people on the cargo ship.

Who would expect that when the crew woke up after they were taken care of by her, they all screamed, “Monster!” loudly? Emilia explained gently that she was not a monster, the crew were in doubt, but they temporarily believed her and promised to bring her back to human cities in the ship.

That night, Emilia was full of longing to return to cities full of humans, but she was drugged by the crew, half a ton of drugs even, then hung on the fore of the ship. They wantonly showed off that they had captured a half-human snake monster. The people shouted out to kill her, and some even suggested for her girl’s body to be cut and become a slave, while the other parts to be eaten.

The night before the execution, Emilia’s beast side awoke, she destroyed the prison cage and returned to the ocean. From then on, whenever she saw ships, she would bewitch it and then swallow everything. Every time late in the night, Emilia’s human nature would return, and she would look at her body with her eyes full of tears but continue to slaughter in the day.

Lin Jie had actually saved that pitiful child by killing her.

Lin Jie took a deep breath and activated Wind Rider Blade Aura Executioner. He sliced a deep depression and cut Emilia’s body from the snake monster. Then, he gently buried her.

“You did not live as a human, so at least you can die as a human.” Lin Jie found an upright stone and stuck it in the soil, he did all he could and hoped she could rest in peace.

Of course, him doing so was beneficial as people’s actions would be reflected in the expansion pack a few years later, but of course, these were all in the future. Now, Lin Jie actually wanted to bury such a pitiful girl, Uh... A Westerner buried according to the formalities in the East, there should be no problems, right?

Ding~

—’You have received 10,000 EXP, your item [Emilia’s Tear] had successfully leveled!’

Lin Jie was stunned, such a thing could happen?

[Emilia’s Tear]: Able to be used on encrypted items and break encryption methods under Sub-Legendary.

“OMG!” Lin Jie shouted out loud, it had actually changed from a consumable item to a permanent item! One good turn deserved another, or else how would she be an Epic character?

With that, it seemed the [City of Light Serial Killer Case] mission could be done!

“Adventurer, adventurer!” Pleater shouted loudly from afar, “Quick, quickly return! The Simon Pirate has appeared!”

Lin Jie was stunned before he suddenly reacted. ‘F*ck, wasn’t this thick fog the usual hiding method the Simon Pirates used? I even thought that the system specially created a scene to show that story.’

As expected, the system wasn’t that kindhearted!

Lin Jie hurriedly went onto the ship, and Pleater immediately operated the rudder and steered out of Crying Bay.

“Adventurer, Stray it....”

“Died.”

Once Pleater heard it, his tears dripped down like raindrops. “Brothers, I have finally taken revenge for all of you! Revenge! Adventurer, you have completed my wish, this is the reward for you, and in addition, this piece of [Illusionary Bullet Recipe] is my proudest gain, I’ll give it to you! I hope you do not let it down.”

Ding~

—’You have completed the mission [Revenge], you received 450,000 EXP, 10 gold coins, 200 Marine Currency, and [Illusionary Bullet Forging Recipe].’

Lin Jie was elated, Illusionary Bullets were a good item. The bullets’ explosive effects, just the power of the explosion itself was much stronger than normal bullets by quite a few times! After checking the materials, he realized it actually needed high-level Exquisite Zaun Ores, which made Lin Jie a little depressed.

“Pleater, do you still have Illusionary Bullets on you?” Lin Jie licked his tongue.

“I have some since its useless for me to keep them anymore, here you go.”

—’You received [Illusionary Bullet] x17.’

Lin Jie was elated, once one got the opportunity to ask for rewards, then one should be more thick-skinned since it was only theirs when it entered their pockets. These 17 bullets were rare treasures.

After completing the mission, Lin Jie was supposed to go back, but he calculated the time, and he needed at least three days to sail from City of Light to Crying Bay. Also, the Simon Pirate entrenched Crying Bay, and their coordinates were hidden, while their position constantly changed. Thus, unless one stayed beside the sea area all the time, it would be possible that the Simon Pirates would not be found the next time.

“Adventurer, what is your name?” asked Pleater solemnly.

“Fu Sheng.”

“Alright, Fu Sheng. If you need any help, you can find me at the port anytime. It’s too bad that my brothers’ corpses were all eaten, so even the hope of them being revived is gone.”

Lin Jie patted his shoulders. Although he was an NPC, the emotions were real and maybe even more realistic than people.

“Okay, we’re preparing to return. After losing all these sailors, the journey back will be even more dangerous and full of hardships.”

Lin Jie paused for a moment and said, “Pleater, you may need to return yourself.”

“Huh?”

“I need to stay here for a while, give me a fast boat, I want to go to Crying Bay.”

Pleater was astonished, but then he understood and said, “Oh yes, you are a human from the alternate realms and have the ability to revive an endless number of times. Stay if you want to stay but if you need help, please come and find me. I wish for you to be safe and sound.”

Lin Jie nodded. He took a high-speed lifeboat and headed towards Crying Bay while Pleater sailed towards the City of Light’s port.

On the boat, Lin Jie played with the item that dropped by killing Stray. As an Epic Boss contained too many items on it and would randomly drop rare items. Not to mention Lin Jie being reborn, even if he was god himself and reborn hundreds of times, he also would not be able to predict what an Epic Boss would drop.

[Emilia’s Tear], it was not an item that would directly bring about benefits. Instead, if it was in the hands of a normal person, then it would not be much of a use. That’s because it was rare for normal people to be able to accept high-level missions, which involved solving encryptions.

Lin Jie suddenly remembered an item, it was the secret letter that the Lord of Vultures had dropped when it was killed. When Lin Jie read the letter, it was as if he could hear the cries of the vulture.

“Would it be useful?”

He turned his words into actions and dripped the tear onto the yellowish letter, and the paper gradually swayed open. The cries of the vulture became louder and louder as if rejecting such a forceful method of unlocking it, but it could not stop the purifying of the tear. Thus, it gradually evaporated and disappeared. Immediately after, the words of the paper were revealed before Lin Jie...

“Fresh food, 1,000 units. Reward: Primordial Ruins Key.”

Those words were extremely ugly, even worse than those of a three-year-old kid! However, if it was written by the vultures, then it could be understood. However, 1,000 units of food, what did it refer to?

‘It can’t be rotten corpses, right?’ Shivers could not help but run down Lin Jie’s spine.
