Item Name; Fallen Cross

Introduction; A greedy priest tried to use the power of the Holy Church to perform a sacrifice and resurrect his undead lover. After failing, his faith collapsed, and the cross was cursed and tainted.

Skill; Purification

Using Purification would greatly suppress evil entities. Under the radiance of holy light, it burned polluted souls and could cleanse the darkness within human nature. It could not be used on the user. (The degree of purification depended on the user's level.)

Cost; Using Purification would trigger a backlash of the painful emotions caused by the death of one's lover. Frequent use could result in multiple personality disorder.

Note; Please don't become slaves to your emotions, even though we often get carried away.

Its description was much shorter than the Cursed Red Skirt's.

The description of the Cursed Red Skirt could hardly be summed up in just one or two lines.

It seemed that the item quality of the Elder Priest was inferior to that of the Cursed Red Skirt.

The next moment, Qin Shang suddenly understood after reconsidering it.

This thing was probably a dungeon reward the Elder Priest had received after clearing the Forty Thousand Train.

The contents of the description were probably linked to the Background Story of the Death Train. The chance of it being a coincidence was extremely low.

Moreover, the Purification skill was extraordinarily effective against evil entities.

The Elder Priest could have used it in Carriage Three.

At the very least, he wouldn't have been chased by the ghostly shadow in such a sorry state.

There was another reason the Elder Priest had died to the ghostly shadow when he fought Qin Shang in the end.

The old bastard hadn't had time to complete the skill's windup.

On top of that, he had just suffered the skill's backlash, so the Purification he unleashed probably couldn't reach its peak effectiveness...

At the same time, Qin Shang glanced at the consumable reward he had received for clearing the dungeon.

Holy Cross (Consumable); The cross of the Holy Church

Function; Purification

Using Purification would greatly suppress evil entities. Under the radiance of holy light, it burned polluted souls and could cleanse the darkness within human nature. It could not be used on the user. (It was only effective against enemies at the Order Realm level.)

Cost; As it was a consumable, it had no cost.

Huh!?

The description of this item seemed exactly the same as that of the Fallen Cross.

Though it seemed even more powerful...

Their functions looked more or less the same, but the consumable Holy Cross clearly stated its power level.

It bluntly told players that it could be used against evil entities or players below Level 3.

In other words, if he encountered a boss below Level 3 in a dungeon from now on, he probably wouldn't need to panic.

"Holy crap! No wonder the old bastard and the security officer clearly hadn't discovered the rule about El attacking passengers in Carriage Three, yet they were still unharmed after El attacked them."

"They even managed to beat the vengeful spirit and force it to flee for a while..."

I get it now. The Elder Priest probably already had this thing before entering the dungeon.

Qin Shang had also heard the Elder Priest mention it at the time.

It was a consumable, and he had run out of stock...

A consumable like the Holy Cross might be a reward given in any dungeon whose Background Story was connected to a priest.

So, before entering the Death Train, the Elder Priest had already possessed one or two Holy Crosses in reserve.

But he had used them all up in Carriage Three.

During the settlement phase, because he had cleared the Death Train as the Team Leader, he had also received an item reward.

That was how he had obtained this Fallen Cross.

Its function was similar to that of the consumable version of the Holy Cross, but it could be used continuously.

At the same time, when she saw the item Qin Shang took out, the Red-robed Cult Master merely cast it a casual sidelong glance while driving before looking away.

With the Red-robed Cult Master's experience, she could naturally tell at a glance that the red skirt Qin Shang had taken out was no ordinary item.

"It really is an item..."

The next moment, she freed one hand to drive while reaching toward Qin Shang's red skirt with the other.

Qin Shang's expression stiffened.

Seeing the woman's delicate hand wandering around recklessly, he instantly lost his temper.

Who knew whether she might grab him by the balls after a few more careless touches?

He hurriedly threw the red skirt onto the woman.

Only then did the Red-robed Cult Master giggle and pick up the flimsy red skirt.

She thought, This kid had seemed so calm and composed just now. Who would've thought he was still such a bashful little boy who couldn't take teasing?

However, in just over ten seconds, her attention shifted from Qin Shang to the red skirt, and her eyes widened in surprise.

"A priest-class item with void abilities that can ignore physical attacks? And it even comes with an item skill?"

"How could this be a reward from a dungeon for an Order Realm player? Even many Order Realm players might not possess a treasure of this level."

Huh!?

Qin Shang's heart jolted when he heard this.

The Red-robed Cult Master had undoubtedly been a God's Path player for quite some time.

Her level was at least the Order Realm.

The reward from a beginner dungeon cleared by a newbie like him had actually caused even a veteran Order Realm player to react this way.

Qin Shang immediately realized that he had most likely struck gold.

The Red-robed Cult Master had no ulterior motives. After checking the item's attributes, she returned the red skirt to Qin Shang without the slightest reluctance.

Just now, Qin Shang had noticed a fleeting look of surprise in the depths of her eyes.

For a moment, he had nearly thought that this woman had also become tempted by the Cursed Red Skirt.

As if she had read his thoughts, the woman spoke softly the next moment:

"Items from the Order Realm aren't of much help to Order Realm players."

"Although this item's skill and special properties are unique even at the Order Realm and difficult to replace..."

"Still, in a true Order Realm dungeon, or in the eyes of Order Realm players, these skills are somewhat underwhelming."

"Except for the rollback passive trapped in a time loop, which can give players a little more room for error while exploring dungeons."

After saying this, the Red-robed Cult Master added:

"However, you're a swindler. Once you reach Level 2, this skill will also seem somewhat underwhelming."

"Of course, the ability to become immune to physical attacks for five seconds in the void is still very powerful..."

After saying this, the Red-robed Cult Master gave him a charming smile and clicked her tongue in wonder.

"Now I'm even more interested in the dungeon where you encountered Grandpa Niu!"

"From the looks of it, it must at least be a polluted Grade-A dungeon. Otherwise, it couldn't possibly drop an item with such incredible attributes."

"And despite being a newbie, you actually managed to clear a dungeon of this level. You've got some real ability, kid."

It really was a polluted dungeon, but not Grade A. It was Grade B...

Qin Shang replied inwardly.

The next moment, the Red-robed Cult Master didn't pursue the dungeon's contents any further and continued:

"Since you have an item too, I'll explain some basic knowledge about items to you while I'm at it..."

"When using an item, you need to focus your attention on it, like your red skirt."

"It isn't difficult to put it on and activate the skill of its second form. You don't even need to physically wear it. You can try it... All you need is a thought. For example, imagine yourself putting on the skirt, and it will automatically appear on you."

"Yes, just like that..."

At the end of her words, the Red-robed Cult Master smiled mischievously and cast a teasing glance at Qin Shang in the passenger seat.

After hearing the woman's explanation, Qin Shang subconsciously imagined what he would look like wearing the red skirt.

Before he could react, he saw a flash of crimson appear in his vision.

Then he looked down, and his old face flushed completely red.

The Cursed Red Skirt was already on him...

The Red-robed Cult Master's teasing gaze appeared only after she saw this scene.

So this was how items were used!

Damn, this was so embarrassing...

The first time he had ever worn women's clothes, someone had actually seen him...

After putting on the Cursed Red Skirt, two more skills appeared on the pale-blue fluorescent screen before Qin Shang.

They were Void and Night Vision.

Both had a cooldown of five minutes.

Void was probably the skill that allowed the red skirt to make its wearer immune to physical attacks.

Night Vision was a priest skill.

The next time he explored a dungeon, he wouldn't need to worry about the environment being too dark and having no priest teammate nearby, leaving him groping around blindly.

The only problem was that the red skirt's appearance was simply too embarrassing.

If Qin Shang had to dress as a woman in front of everyone during a multiplayer dungeon...

Psychologically speaking, as a straight man, he still instinctively resisted the idea.

Immediately afterward, Qin Shang dismissed the equipment with a thought.

He reconnected with the Character Card and tossed the "red skirt" back into his item inventory.

"The methods for using other types of items are basically the same."

"Depending on their different functions and forms, you only need to imagine the scene in which you use them, and the item will immediately appear in the corresponding position."
