NTR Rogue in the Apocalypse-Chapter 234: More Weapons

John’s eyes focused on the Nightstalker, and a screen popped before his eyes.

[Nightstalker]

[Price: 5050 Points]

[Rarity: Rare]

[Type: Dagger]

[Effect: Attack +50%, Attack +200% when unseen.]

[Bonus: +200% Critical Hit Damage against weak spots.]

[Requirement: 51 Agility, 21 Energy]

[Description: The Nightstalker is a dagger designed for assassins and rogues. Its sharp blade is capable of penetrating even the thickest of hides, and its stealthy design makes it the perfect tool for a quiet kill. However, the Nightstalker has a dark secret. It was created by a mad alchemist who used forbidden techniques to bind the souls of his enemies to the dagger, fueling its deadly power. All kills with the Nightstalker will absorb more Energy and Stats.]

John rubbed his chin as he read the description, his brows furrowed in contemplation.

’It seems like a good option, but I should check the others as well. This is the first time I see Stat requirements; I should check mine.’

[John Sarack]

[Age: 21]

[Strength: 53.2]

[Vitality: 29.7]

[Agility: 64]

[Energy: 42.3]

[Skills: Quiet Steps (C), Critical Hit (D), Shockwave (D), Appraisal (A), Shadow Claw (D), Haze Veil (C), Dagger Aura (B), No Skills (S)]

[Skill Borrowing: Muscle Strengthening (B), Strength Buff (B), Berserker’s Rage (B), Fire Control (B)]

He had enough Agility to use the Nightstalker and a little more than half of the needed Energy.

"Which Dagger requires the highest amount of Agility to wield?"

"Hmm," the administrator rubbed his chin, his eyes darting back and forth between the display and the holographic screen, "the Soulreaper has the highest requirement, but..."

"But?"

"The price is a little steep. Are you sure you can afford it?"

"Just tell me the price."

"Five-hundred-thousand Points."

"I’m broke."

"I could give you a loan," the administrator said.

"No, thanks. I’ll keep looking," John said and decided to check his points.

[40325 Points]

"Can you tell which of these cost more than 40325 Points?"

"None, only the Soulreaper is above 40000 points," the administrator said, "but, if you can’t buy the Soulreaper, the Pyroclaw might be a good option. It has a lower requirement and it’s still very powerful."

"Let me see the requirements," John said.

The administrator pointed his finger at the Pyroclaw, and its description was projected.

[Pyroclaw]

[Price: 4350 Points]

[Rarity: Uncommon]

[Type: Dagger]

[Effect: Attack +40%, Critical Hit Damage +50%, Chance to Ignite target, Fire Damage +50%]

[Bonus: +50% chance to Ignite, +25% Critical Hit Chance]

[Requirements: Agility 21, Energy 31]

[Description: A fiery dagger designed to cause maximum damage and ignite your enemies. Its sharp edge is capable of piercing even the toughest of hides, and its flaming blade burns hot enough to set your foes ablaze. The Pyroclaw is a dangerous weapon, and it should only be wielded by the most skilled and powerful of Rogues. Kills with the Pyroclaw will increase mastery over Fire-based Skills faster.]

John wanted to roll his eyes at the description of the Pyroclaw. It read like a marketing ad rather than an actual description.

’Let’s see the Blacklight.’

[Blacklight]

[Price: 8150 Points]

[Rarity: Rare]

[Type: Dagger]

[Effect: Attack +25%, Critical Hit Damage: +100%, Energy Regeneration: +50%]

[Bonus: +25% Critical Hit chance]

[Requirement: 18 Agility, 39 Energy]

[Description: A mysterious weapon created by the ancient Zekryon civilization. The Blacklight is a powerful tool capable of increasing the wielder’s strength and regeneration. However, it also comes with a deadly curse. The Zekryons used forbidden magic and rituals to bind the souls of their enemies to the Blacklight, fueling its deadly power. All kills with the Blacklight will absorb more Energy and Stats.]

"Are you kidding me with this? Where did you get these weapons, and why are they all cursed?"

"They are not cursed, sir. The System wouldn’t sell cursed items."

"So, what’s the deal with the binding of souls and the absorption of stats and energy?"

"The System simply provides a way for the user to grow stronger by absorbing energy and stats from the killed creatures and people."

John sighed, accepting that he wouldn’t get a straight answer to his question and continued on to the next item.

’Let’s check the Soulseeker.’

[Soulseeker]

[Price: 14250 Points]

[Rarity: Mythic]

[Type: Dagger]

[Effect: Attack: +15%, Chance to inflict Soul Damage: +30%, Soul Life Steal: +5%]

[Bonus: +50% chance to ignore armour]

[Requirement: 20 Agility, 35 Energy]

[Description: An ancient weapon crafted by the Zekryon civilization. The Soulseeker is a devastating tool capable of dealing devastating damage to both the flesh and the soul. It was once used by the Zekryons’ elite soldiers and is now available for purchase at System Shops. Its unique ability to ignore armour and inflict soul damage makes it a fearsome weapon. The Soulseeker’s unique ability allows the user to absorb the life force and energy from the souls of those they kill, granting them strength and vitality. Kills with the Soulseeker will also increase mastery over Spirit-based Skills faster.]

John’s brows twitched after reading the description, and a thought crossed his mind.

’Is this System trying to turn us into soul eaters? That aside, though, this one is incredible, but...’ He turned towards the Administrator.

"Soul Damage?"

"Yes, the Soulseeker can inflict a debuff on the soul, which deals damage over time and reduces the target’s stats and resistance."

"So, the Zekryon Civilization is a civilization of soul eaters, isn’t it?"

"Well, I’m not sure about that, but they certainly seemed to have a fascination with the concept."

"Anyway, going back to the Soulseeker, isn’t this weapon too overpowered if it can inflict direct damage on the soul?"

"No, it is not. The Soulseeker can only deal a very small amount of damage to the soul, and it requires a lot of energy to do so."

"I see, so the best way to use this weapon would be to have the capacity to strike as many times as possible. The focus should be on attack speed, rather than pure strength."

"Yes, I would say that is the best way to utilize the Soulseeker’s ability."

"Good, good," John said and nodded his head in approval.

"If you’re not interested in the Soulseeker, perhaps the Reaper’s Edge might be more to your liking," the administrator suggested.

John quirked an eyebrow and glanced at the description of the Reaper’s Edge, but he shook it off.

’All in due time,’ he thought, bringing up the Deathblade’s description.

[Deathblade]

[Price: 13550 Points]

[Rarity: Mythic]

[Type: Dagger]

[Effect: Attack: +100%, Critical Hit Damage: +400%]

[Bonus: Critical Hit Chance: +30%, +50% Damage against Armour and Magic Shields]

[Requirement: Agility 45, Energy 30]

[Description: The Deathblade is a legendary weapon created by the ancient Zekryon civilization. Its unique design makes it ideal for delivering swift and deadly strikes, and its ability to pierce through armour and magic shields makes it a truly fearsome weapon. Kills with the Deathblade will also increase mastery over Physical-based Skills faster.]

John sighed after seeing the Deathblade. This was the first time he saw something with 400% critical hit damage.

"This weapon is very good," he said, but the Administrator just smiled and nodded.

’It would go well with my Critical Hit skill, but I’ll keep looking for now.’
