Reborn: Super God of War

Chapter 585: Divine Item

As the wooden door opened, dust was blown onto Shawn and Lin Jie’s faces—the rotten and dry scent was smelly, making them uncomfortable.

“Cough, cough, cough cough... Sorry Lord City Leader, it has been too long since people have entered this place.” Shawn added, “These are all historical records praising the contributions of the Primordial period and were once ordered to be destroyed by the Empire. If it were not for the Winter Castle’s Mages that have tried their best to save these books, they might have become dust already.”

Lin Jie nodded; these belonged to the inside stories of the Empire. The Winter Castle was the place for Mages to train, and the strongest Mages of the whole The New Age were gathered within that NPC organization. Players could learn more profound Advanced Magic if they enter it and even Restricted Curses.

Shawn took a book from the shelf and carefully opened it. He tapped his right finger onto his tongue and carefully flipped the pages as he read. “Lord, most likely, the Book of the Age in your hands does not belong to this age. You might not know, but it’s unknown how long this world has experienced or was ruled by how many races. However, the length of time they ruled was never long. Only through the cooperation of high intelligence races, such as humans, Elves, and Goblins. Also, I once heard of a secret legend—when The New Age was created, there were 12 Gods of Light.”

As Lin Jie’s attitude towards Shawn made him feel flattered, and in addition to the fact that he realized the City Leader was very interested in knowledge, Shawn continued explaining to Lin Jie everything he knew, which allowed the latter to learn quite a lot.

“Found it, Dark Age!” exclaimed Shawn. “This was an age ruled by the Dark Night Dragons, the whole era was filled with blood and brutality. The Dark Night Dragons demanded for all races to be their slaves and build Dark Shrines in all places around the world to steal faith and increase their strength. However, there were talented human heroes that reversed the faith and obtained powerful strength from the Dark Night Dragons, thus ending the age. However, the dark energy had corroded their minds, and they had started to use the Dark Shrine to create a dictatorship. In the end, they were annihilated.”

Shawn added, “Let me help you translate the contents, then you can learn this language.”

Shawn translated the contents of the Book of the Dark Age and imparted knowledge to Lin Jie.

Ding~

—’Your Knowledge has increased by 50 points.’

—’You have learned Dark Night Dragon’s prayer language.’

“Thank you,” said Lin Jie respectfully.

This Book of the Dark Age had recorded the great glorious deeds of the Dark Night Dragon, a whole book with millions of words of praises. Of course, this was not the key. The important thing was the two pages in the book, which recorded two skills—Dark Night Descent and Ancient Dark Abyss! That was what Eighteen Massacres had relied on to successfully escape from the army of the Xuanyuan Alliance.

“It’s my honor to be able to help you,” said Shawn.

Meanwhile, for the Sealed Dusty Book, Shawn was unable to do anything about it, so without any other choice, he could only leave Lin Jie in the backup room, while he returned to his position.

Lin Jie held the Sealed Dusty Book and thought carefully. According to the hint given by Shawn, he must find an item from the same age as the Sealed Dusty Book, then the words on it could be translated.

This was the basic thing that needed to be done for translation work, and the best method was to find books—books were not consumable items and included everything, so once the corresponding books were found, then the language could be translated.

Lin Jie stood up and started reading the books within the backup room—those books were good items that one would not even be able to read normally!

Lin Jie sat down crossed-legged and randomly took a book to read thoroughly. The writings of Minstrels and historians in The New Age were relatively good, so it would not be boring to read. It was as if Lin Jie was immersed in the boundless The New Age. Such a reading state continued for a total of 12 hours.

A small pile of books was placed beside Lin Jie—that was the fruit of his reading. However, there were none related to the Sealed Dusty Book within them.

“Sealed Dusty Book... huh?” Lin Jie suddenly had a realization. If there were no clues in normal books, then what about the Book of the Age? Lin Jie placed the Book of the Dark Age onto the Sealed Dusty Book, and instantly, the dust on the Sealed Dusty Book bounced off it! Lin Jie’s jaw dropped as the Book of the Dark Age had turned into sparks of light and was absorbed by the Sealed Dusty Book.

“This!” Lin Jie widened his eyes as he looked at it. ‘WTF, just what the heck is that thing?’

—’You have broken the seal of the [Sealed Dusty Book].’

[Sealed Dusty Book] (Divine Item)

Item Description: An item that records the period of an age. When you gather relevant The New Age items, you can increase the attributes of the Sealed Dusty Book. This item does not need to be equipped. It will be in effect once inside the backpack.

Item attributes: Attack 100-200, Strength +30, Endurance +30, Movement Speed +20.

Additional effect: Undefeated Will, Imaginary Eye

Undefeated Will, when you enter battle mode, you will receive 1 Attack Power each second, the maximum amount is equal to your Attack Stat Points.

Imaginary Eye, you will release a light ray which will reveal all targets hiding in Stealth Mode or transformed within a 3×3 yards.

Lin Jie’s pupils constricted—it was actually a Divine Item!

In The New Age, the equipment of the highest grade was not Legendary, but Divine Item. However, there were extremely few of those, or even one and only. In Lin Jie’s previous life, as high-end players had all gone to White Cloth’s land, it had resulted in the strongest equipment in Lin Jie’s land to only be at the grade of Legendary.

There were two types of Divine Item. One was left by a god or rewarded by a god. No matter what, it would be related to a god, so naturally, the item would have the strength of the god. Besides people like Lin Jie, who had completed the God of War’s trial, the highest possibility to obtain a Divine Item was to join organizations like the Winter Castle. The second type was created by the talents of each race, such as the ancestor of the Goblin race had invented the treasure of the race, Camiloca Cutter, which was a Divine Item. It could easily slice the City of Light into two.

Lin Jie held the Sealed Dusty Book in his hands. Then, a primordial, vast, and magnificent will could be felt from it, as if there were countless ages happening within it.

If this was also a Book of the Age, then what age was it? Dark? Dragons?

Just as Lin Jie had opened it while full of curiosity, he was instantly stunned. There were actually 12 drawings carved within it—they were those of Broken Blade, Armor, Helmet, War Boots, Greaves, Robe, Pauldron, Wristguard, Shield, Rings, and Necklace! Weren’t those the 12 Heritage Weapons? Lin Jie went pale from shock, was it possible that it meant for the 12 Heritage Weapons to be attached to it? Just what was this book?

Lin Jie flipped his right hand, and the Heritage Armor landed in his hand.

That armor would turn a person into an indestructible and unbeatable God of War no matter who equipped it! The super-high Defense was enough to be immune to the attacks of most players. What would happen if such equipment was thrown into the Sealed Dusty Book? It can’t be it would just be swallowed, right? Lin Jie was curious. That’s right. He was curious as he wanted to know just what changes would happen to this item that he had not come in contact with it his previous life.

The Heritage Armor, Armor of Miluos, emitted a warm light, then it gradually turned into a mark, entering the Sealed Dusty Book. The armor drawing became vivid and shone brightly as if the armor was really branded within the book. However, if one touched the page, it was totally smooth.

As expected, it was devoured!

Lin Jie’s mouth twitched. He did not know whether to clap for his accurate prediction or to just simply give himself a big heavy slap.

However, the Sealed Dusty Book did not seem interested in Broken Blade. It looked like it was due to the fact that Broken Blade had yet to finish evolving completely.

Lin Jie took a look at the attributes of the Sealed Dusty Book.

“Looks like... it’s quite worth it.” Lin Jie touched his nose, but his eyes darkened. After a while, he took off his helmet and left the game.

When Lin Jie went offline, Zheng Ziliang, Yan Li, and Zhang Rong were still in the game. The room was extremely quiet. Lin Jie quietly tidied his clothes, and after training at the field, he casually walked on the track. Currently, it was almost evening, so a large number of guys had gathered below the girls’ dormitory. Half of them were calling the girls down for dinner, while the other half were holding their phones calmly as they waited for the girls to come downstairs. Lin Jie was already used to seeing such a scene.

Lin Jie put his hands into his pocket and walked around the field, thinking about the development of the game.

If the Book of the Age had appeared in his previous life too, then why had he not even heard of it before? Logically speaking, he had also been one of the top players in his previous life, but of course, that land was not included within.

Thus, there were only two reasons: One, the Book of the Age was indeed too rare, and the people who had obtained it did not reveal it. Two, someone had intentionally hidden such information. Lin Jie thought that the possibility of the latter was much higher.

Since the battle in the City of Light, Eighteen Massacres had suffered great losses, so most likely, he would not be able to cause much trouble in a short period of time. Meanwhile, Baili Xuanyuan had been staying low, which made Lin Jie worry.

‘Should I do a clean up in the City of Light and clear Knight’s Glory, Vampire City, and other second-rate guilds, uniting the City of Light?’ thought Lin Jie.

Currently, the development of the City of Light was still in a quite prosperous stage, but when major guilds amassed enough energy, snatching power was something that would definitely happen! Then why not make the first move?

However, with Baili Xuanyuan’s information network, he would definitely get hold of the news and take the chance to make trouble. Then such an action would be pushing his allies to his enemy.

Lin Jie took a deep breath. He felt pain from his head as his brain was constantly working around the clock.

At that moment, his phone rang.

It was Bu Yi who sent a message. The message was very simple: Come and find me, drive the car, thank you.
