Chapter 1393: Chapter 609: Fanning the Flames_2

Luckily, the luck today isn’t too bad. Right when it seemed like all hopes were dashed, a success prompt finally appeared, and it was a significant upgrade on the first attempt!

[...Combining successful! Your Moon Velvet has received a significant upgrade!]

[Moon Velvet (7-Star): God’s Power +15, God’s Defense +3, Strength +20, Agility +25, Intelligence +20.

Moon Velvet can unleash crescent-shaped blade energy, with a maximum range of 30 meters. Upon hitting, it absorbs 15% of the real life damage inflicted and reduces the target’s God’s Defense by 1 point, lasting for 15 seconds.

A sticky Spider Web will form on the target’s surface after five consecutive hits.

Attacks from Moon Velvet deal additional damage to armor, carapaces, shields, and other defensive gear or shells, destroying 30 points of durability per hit (the gear will shatter when its durability reaches zero)]

"Not bad."

After reading it, Mu You nodded, this upgrade for the beak had essentially added an ’armor-break’ ability to the blade.

In the Real World, many creatures come with carapaces, especially some tortoise species known for their freakish defenses. Attacks on their shells are entirely ineffective.

And among humanoid creatures of the Divine Race, many giants are accustomed to wearing armor and wielding shields. They can block attacks with shields and armor to significantly negate damage.

The Human Race hasn’t encountered such giants yet, but it’s only a matter of time until they do. If they don’t have a way to penetrate armor by then, it’s going to be tough, so it’s good to prepare armor-breaking weapons in advance.

With the combining process complete, and both attempts yielding favorable outcomes, Mu You was very satisfied.

The Moon Velvet Blade has now reached 7-Star, and further upgrades will require 7-Star materials. However, the only 7-Star materials he currently has are a dozen or so loose ones, not nearly enough to match 5 of the same kind. So he has to stop here for now.

"7.5-Star, 8-Star, 8.5-Star, 9-Star..."

Mu You calculated and anticipated that the Moon Velvet Blade only had four more chances for upgrade. In order to create a weapon that could be used for an extended period of time, he needed to think carefully about each upcoming upgrade before acting.

Mu You put away the remaining materials and returned to the game.

At the moment, the entire Crow Tribe was still suffering from ’post-theft syndrome’. Almost no one dared to set up stalls on the street, and the streets were full of patrolling Crow Man guards. Mu You tried walking around a few times, but found himself being watched wherever he went.

Confirming that he couldn’t make a move, Mu You simply decided to leave the tribe and continue grinding in the forest.

But just as he was about to leave, a prompt suddenly popped up in the game.

[You suddenly hear the sound of a sparrow’s hoof between the mountains.]

[Transformed into the shape of a sparrow person, you quickly understand its meaning: "Boss, the Clan Leader of the Crow Man is here, hurry back!"]

"The Clan Leader of the Crow Man..." Mu You raised an eyebrow, not too surprised. Over the past three days, he alone had caused chaos throughout the tribe, nearly collapsing the Order of the entire tribe. It would have been odd if the Clan Leader hadn’t reacted.

This was an excellent opportunity to stir up conflict between the two opposing factions!

[You transform into the image of a sparrow gang leader in a secluded place and rush back to the sparrow gang’s gathering spot.]

[...You enter the ’Sparrow Gang’s Home’ underground. At this moment, the vast room is already filled with quite a few gang members. In the depths of the room, the Clan Leader of the Crow Man tribe stands by the wall, cane in hand, evidently having waited for quite some time.]

[When he hears you enter, the Clan Leader finally turns around shakily, taps his cane, and looks at you displeasedly, "What’s the deal with the recent thefts? Even if you sparrow bandits don’t know any better, there should be a limit, right?"]

["What do you mean we don’t know any better? It wasn’t us who did it!" Before you can speak, a gang member at the side can’t hold back and interjects to argue.]

["That’s right, we’ve stayed in and kept low these past few days, we haven’t gone Hunting at all." "Exactly..." The sparrow gang members all chime in.]

["If it wasn’t you guys, then who was it?" The Clan Leader frowns and asks.]

["Obviously some sparrow bandits from outside!" You say.]

["Sparrow bandits from outside? Are you joking?" Upon hearing that, the Clan Leader of Crow Man scoffs coldly: "I don’t care whether the sparrow bandits are local or from outside, this is an internal problem for you sparrow bandits. Anyway, if sparrow bandits make a mistake in my tribe, you are responsible for dealing with it, and also for compensating us for all the losses!"]

["Why should we?" "Yeah, why should we pay?" "It wasn’t our people, we don’t even know who the newcomers are..." The sparrow gang members make a clamor.]

["As I said, it’s up to you how you deal with it. I’m giving you one week to sort out your internal issues and restore stability to the Crow Tribe. Otherwise, the agreement we signed before, I’m afraid it may need to be re-evaluated..." The Clan Leader finally looks at you, speaking with an obvious tone of threat.]

["What?!!" Upon hearing these words, the sparrow gang members are instantly enraged, exchanging looks that show understanding.]

[Many of the sparrow gang members still harbored doubts about your speculation, but now the words of the Crow Man Clan Leader seem to confirm your guess: the Crow Man had long been plotting to drive you out!]

[Many sparrow gang members are furious and wish they could have knocked the Clan Leader of the Crow Man to the ground right there, but fortunately, they’re stopped by your timely glance.]

[After saying his piece, the Clan Leader of Crow Man slowly leaves, shaking his cane.]

[As he passes by the entrance, a sparrow gang member, feeling indignant inside, makes a subtle move and attempts to steal from the Crow Man Clan Leader...]
