Suicide Bracelet

"Seize the Initiative (2nd Ring Feat): For every combat, your first three attacks cannot be dodged."

"So strong!"

"With 'Seize the Initiative' combined with 'Ten Years One Sword,' doesn't that make my first three moves god-tier?"

Roger felt a greater sense of security.

Previously, he had 'Nineteen Moon Bloom' to enhance his accuracy, but that was limited to the Crimson Moon Blade.

Now, the newly acquired feat guaranteed that he couldn't be dodged with any weapon! 100% hit rate plus percentage-based power bonuses.

If he continued developing along this line of thought, would he only need to crazily stack attributes for his first three moves?

Roger pondered this.

He immediately rejected such an extreme development path.

While instantly killing with the first three moves was one approach, he couldn't put all his eggs in the first three baskets.

Even if his attacks couldn't be dodged, enemies could still parry them.

And even if parrying failed, enemies could resist by increasing their own defense and health.

What if there was a tanky, high-health opponent who could withstand his first three moves?

Thinking of this.

Roger dismissed the fleeting thought of "I'm invincible" that had just arisen.

"Can't get arrogant."

"I've only gotten a little bit stronger."

He took a few deep breaths, regaining his composure.

'Seize the Initiative' was a feat that came with the White Raven's Crown.

This wondrous item also had other attributes attached.

"White Raven's Crown (Wondrous Item)"

"Feat: Seize the Initiative"

"Bonus: Insight +60"

"Special Effect: As the owner of the White Raven's Crown, you can sense the flow of Qi, which greatly aids in comprehending Qi."

The 'Insight +60' bonus from the White Raven's Crown would allow Roger to better discern hidden information in his daily life or adventuring career.

As for the special effect, it went without saying.

These past few days, Roger had faintly begun to feel the path of 'Qi' circulating within his body.

He believed he would be able to master 'Qi' ahead of time before long.

Just this aspect alone made the White Raven's Crown worthy of its name as a wondrous item.

What was even more noteworthy was.

Although the White Raven's Crown imbued Roger with these attributes, it didn't require Roger to wear it at all times.

In fact, Roger only needed to spend 10 minutes each day performing 'Qi Fate Synchronization' with this wondrous item.

For the rest of the time, he could wear any hat he pleased.

It wouldn't affect the acquisition of attributes.

From this perspective.

The White Raven's Crown was indeed a rare and excellent piece of equipment.

After dealing with the White Raven's Crown.

Roger took one last stroll around the Dao Field, then packed his belongings and left the place.

This departure might very well be a final farewell.

Roger carefully noted the location of the Dao Field.

If one day he mastered enough knowledge and materials for constructs.

He would try to return and restart Aba.

Leaving the Clear Spring Sect's Dao Field, Roger headed straight for Sang Qi's cabin.

After tormenting her for so many days, it was time to wrap things up.

Roger saw the broad application potential of the Hunter's Mark on Sang Qi.

Through the Hunter's Mark, he could not only see Sang Qi's exact location but also her physical and mental state! The data showed.

Sang Qi's condition had plummeted to rock bottom.

It was time to end her suffering.

In fact, while the Hunter's Mark was the cause of Sang Qi's torment, Roger's meddling had also played a significant role.

Not to mention his clever move on the fifth day of actively removing the mark, which caused Sang Qi to misjudge the situation.

On the night of the seventh day.

Roger captured an Underground Warthog and used it to charge Sang Qi's cabin.

The Bear Goblins were caught off guard and couldn't stop it.

The warthog immediately triggered several magic traps and, as a bonus, knocked down the cabin's fence.

Judging by the feedback from the Hunter's Mark, that warthog had scared the life out of Sang Qi.

When the warthog hit the wall, she probably thought Roger had come to attack her.

And then, on the ninth day.

Roger employed the same tactic.

This time, he gifted the severely tormented Sang Qi a small squad of Rhino Horn Monsters as a present.

The Bear Goblins had learned their lesson and managed to intercept the overly frightened Rhino Horn Monsters beforehand.

However, the immense noise still left Sang Qi shaken.

Roger knew this well.

The unknown was the greatest fear.

Over these eleven days, it wasn't just Sang Qi who had become dejected; even the Bear Goblin guards outside the cabin seemed subdued.

Along the edge of the pitch-black small lake.

Roger, cloaked in the Shadow Cloak, tiptoed to the outside of the perimeter wall.

The Bear Goblins were completely unaware.

The previous two monster assaults had allowed Roger to map out the positions of the magic traps near Sang Qi's cabin with perfect clarity.

Given Sang Qi's current state, she was in no condition to reset them.

This presented Roger with an opportunity.

He agilely leaped onto the wall, then climbed onto the roof, and finally crawled down the chimney into the kitchen.

The cabin was quiet.

Bottles and jars emitting strange odors were everywhere.

Roger used the Qi Divination Technique to bypass several obvious mechanisms and reached Sang Qi's bedroom door.

The bedroom door was open, and through the gap, he could see Sang Qi sleeping.

Roger observed for a moment, detecting no anomalies.

He gently pushed the door open and approached.

Suddenly.

A strong magical fluctuation erupted in the air.

A bone-chilling aura emanated from beneath Roger's feet, instantly enveloping his entire body! On the bedroom bed.

Sang Qi, her eyes bloodshot, leaped up.

She dropped the "Ice Seal Spell" scroll in her hand, drew the staff hidden under her blanket, and aimed it at Roger.

However, at that very moment, she witnessed a scene that shattered her perception: dense Ice Elements clung to Roger's skin, forming a faint white mist.

Yet, Roger's body wasn't even covered by a thin layer of ice! The Ice Seal Spell had failed!

"This... this is impossible..."

Sang Qi waved her staff incoherently.

The next second, the Qing Fu Sword easily pierced her heart.

[You have killed Sang Qi (Underground Witch/Elite)]

[You have gained 29 XP]

[You have gained 4 Xia Yin Value]

[Extermination Order rewards are being acquired...]

"You have gained the feat 'Apothecary Master' from Sang Qi."

Drawing the Qing Fu Sword, Roger let out a sigh of relief.

Sang Qi's reaction hadn't been unexpected.

Even a cornered rabbit would bite, let alone a Mage.

Roger never underestimated his prey.

Not until he confirmed they were completely dead.

Yes, the kind that wouldn't revive.

Glancing at the status column, Roger found that the feat Sang Qi gave him was quite good.

"Apothecary Master (2nd Ring Feat): When crafting basic potions, you almost never fail. Furthermore, your success rate increases when crafting high-level potions."

Although it wasn't a combat-oriented feat, it would be quite useful given Roger's identity as an Apothecary.

The fight in the bedroom hadn't alerted the Bear Goblins outside.

Roger casually took stock of the spoils.

From Sang Qi herself and within the bedroom, he found several magic scrolls and magic items.

The item that most caught his attention was an exquisite silver-white bracelet.

Qi Divination Technique displayed its name: "Suicide Bracelet."
