"I can't help but feel a bit regretful."
Red Hair suddenly said this, leaving many people stunned for a moment, unsure of what it meant. After a while, someone finally chuckled.
Although Red Hair now appears quite similar to a normal person and can chat with anyone, she rarely initiates conversations, often just wearing a smile.
On the other hand, Xia Bai, despite not looking so cold anymore, still remains somewhat taciturn.
However, there aren't many things that can prompt Red Hair to speak up, and once she does, no one would dare to underestimate her.
Her mindset is filled with a thieving mentality.
Even though she looks as human as anyone else, deep down, she is still an evolved life form, lacking some emotions and habits that humans might have.
In her view, raiding the women's camp and the Mechanical Genius isn't a bad thing at all.
"These items are quite useful." Red Hair pointed at the battle dolls left by the Mechanical Genius, which, after the recent tests, indeed proved to be powerful.
"No need for that." Ye Zhongming smiled.
At that moment, he was in a very good mood—no, an exceptionally good mood.
Having reached the current stage of King of Cloud Summit, there are not many things that can excite him anymore, but this recent haul undoubtedly did.
The women's camp, being one of the few surviving teams with the least ‘achievements’, still managed to obtain two golden-grade pieces of equipment. Not to mention the top-ranking Cloud Summit, where aside from the Mountain King Crown, Ye Zhongming acquired five valuable items.
Two pieces of equipment, a scroll, a crystal, and a certificate.
Both pieces of equipment were purple gear.
The first item was a stunning pair of short daggers.
Among equipment, weapons have the highest value, and within weapons, a complete set of arms is naturally the best. Without a doubt, this pair of purple daggers ranks at the top level just by their grade, regardless of attributes.
"Assault Dual Stabs."
"Ability 1: Phantom Shadow. When activated, the user will create fifteen phantom shadows that can attack up to ten targets alongside the main body. The phantom shadows' attacks can evade, dealing double the power of the attack type itself. The main body’s attack cannot be evaded but can be defended against, dealing fifty percent of the attack type's power, and targets can only be body parts."
"Ability 2: Agile Response. The user's speed and agility attributes are increased by fifty percent. If skills using these two attributes are employed, the attributes will further increase by thirty percent."
"Ability 3: Remote Strike. When the user attacks a target, a mark will be left on it. Each hit counts as one mark. Once the number of marks exceeds ten, the user can launch a Remote Strike within a five-meter distance without needing to approach the target."
"Ability 4: Phantom Energy. When needed, the user can release a dark energy beast through the dagger to assist in battle, its strength proportional to the charging time measured in seconds. Each second will raise the phantom’s level by one, up to a maximum of level eight. During the charging period, the user must remain stationary, though this state can be broken and ended actively."
"Ability 5: Storm Flight. The user can throw the dagger, creating a violent wave of attacks within a designated area, launching multiple successive cutting attacks in a short time."
"Ability 6: Fierce Stance. When the user performs a series of continuous attacks with the dagger, at a certain moment, an effect will trigger, dealing triple the power of the current attack. This effect is activated under the condition of twelve consecutive attacks or continuous attacks lasting over seven seconds."
This is a weapon exclusive to assassin-type professions.
All six abilities are attack-oriented.
Ye Zhongming held the daggers, knowing that someone with avoidance skills could finally switch weapons.
The second piece of equipment was a long staff.
To be honest, in the apocalypse, weapons are all sorts—from the cold weapon era to the myriad of bizarre weapons that even ancient individuals would find perplexing.
