Six reward boxes opened, the final one remained.Tapping on the seventh box, a pale frosty light brought into view a gun. “Finally, a weapon" Alex rejoiced. Weapons received from reward boxes were often better than those crafted or bought from the market. And this one was a gun, a weapon he had full experience using.“Glacier Frost CryoblasterGun Type: Submachine GunRarity: Epic”The gun had Sleek angular lines with glowing icy blue accents converging on the rear cooling core that generates perpetual frost mist. The liquid nitrogen cartridge contains arctic gasses visible through frosted glass.“Stats:Extreme cold damage over time35 rounds per second rate of fire80 round capacity magazinesEffective Range: 200 metersCryo Shot consumes 3 ammo per trigger pullEffects:Standard shots slow enemies by 30% on impact.Cryo Shot (consumes extra ammo): Encases the target in ice for 4 seconds stunning them plus increases all cold damage taken by 50% for the freeze duration.The cutting-e

“What????" Alex yelled with his mouth wide open “Have you lost your mind? Damn you have no mind, has your programming been corrupted? How would you allow such to happen? You clearly know that the mad man is out to get me and you allowed him to keep tabs on me for days? What the hell is wrong with you?” Alex was pissed.“This reaction and low level of reasoning is the main reason I didn't tell you from the onset, of I had told you what would you have done? Would you have destroyed all the bugs and drones he used in following you? Of course no, you don't have a way of stopping them on your own. If I had told you, was there a way I could have possibly been able to access their networks without them knowing? Of course not. You're always quick to rush into conclusions. You barely give anyone a chance to explain things to you. You are such a handful, I wonder how Emma managed with you for twenty two years” Nexus lashed back.If Nexus was having a face of flesh, the anger

Requesting the blueprint, Emma grinned with excitement as she slid the parchment containing the staff's specifications over to Alex. "According to this, it is a blueprint for an epic level, triple-banded sorcerer's staff in one of my loremaster books! It's called the Staff of the Four Winds or as legends would know it, Aria's Grace. I won't be able to have high enough crafting skill to make it myself even if I switched to the subclass of blacksmith but I was hoping with your master blacksmith ability you could?"Alex studied the ornate blueprints depicting a slender elmwood staff with three shimmering bands of engraved silver and copper winding around it from top to bottom. The bands swirled with delicate leaf and vine filigree. According to the description, when powered with the proper reagents, the staff allowed casting of wind-based spells that normally required group ritual magic. Spells included Whirlwind, Cyclone, and Summon Storm Elemental."Hmm,

These were the only ways the battle analysts could figure out its attacks but many were still caught in the crossfire before they would manage to escape. Sometimes, those behind retreating would cause others to flatter because they missed moving at the right time giving Za'gul the perfect timing to hit on them.The Silver Lions suffered greatly but with the help from their partners in the Arcanum Lumiosa and their powerful revive skill, they were able to keep the battle at a steady pace.One would wonder why they would go through the stress of fighting this aberration if it felt so difficult to conquer why not leave sleeping dogs lie? Well the answer to that was pretty simple ‘Loot’.The loot that came from Za’gul's body was something to die for. Once in a month was a very long period for players to wait, so before the respawning time, guilds would make deals with one another to take down the aberration.The loot from the beast was something to di

Venom the leader of The Shadows Syndicate suddenly received a call when she took a break to regain her mana and health.“Commander, we've been trying to reach you for a while now" the voice sounded out of breath.“Calm down" Venom said "Explain the situation”."Yes Commander. We suddenly stared getting attacks from the Arcanum Lumiosa. They have wiped more than half the 1000 troops that were on the watch out for respawned mobs along side the substitute troops that would join the battle, we are currently evading attacks firm both sides, because the Silver Lions are also attacking us”.Venom folded a fist in pent up anger as her underling finished the reports. She was so furious that if she were on her own she was going to teach both Rhazuul and Aerindor a bitter lesson.Turning to the resting spot of Arcanum Lumiosa Venom yelled at Rhazuul “Rhazuul, you damned pig, how dare you attack my people on the watch? You think you are might and powerful? If there wasn't an agreement signed with
