Secrets of the Elemental King
There are nine such one-handed swords in total, but the light shimmering on each sword is different. Xiao Yu picked up another one-handed sword that emitted a faint blue light. This one is called the Fang of Sgelari). Its attack is the same as the previous one, but the equipment effect has changed.
Demigod's Bite): When it hits a target, it has the potential to deal 375 points of Frost damage and slow the target for 6 seconds. If it triggers twice in a row, it will Freeze the target for 3 seconds.
Looking at the other weapons, Fang of Sgelari), Fang of Sgelari), and Fang of Sgelari), each one basically has a different attribute effect.
Seeing that Xiao Yu seemed interested in the longswords, the merman elder hurriedly explained, "These are one-handed swords forged from the teeth that fell out of Sgelari. There are currently six in total. Depending on the rate at which Sgelari's teeth fall out, one or two can be forged each month. These weapons were originally prepared for Lady Xiwadelin. Each one has a special attribute effect because each of Sgelari's heads has different attribute abilities, and these teeth have inherited some of its attributes."
Xiao Yu thought to himself, "Lady Xiwadelin, no wonder. That Naga Tidecaller has six arms, just right to wield one sword in each hand. But isn't the Naga Tidecaller a magic-based class? Fighting hand-to-hand with a sword would be suicide. No wonder I haven't seen her use these swords. But that just happens to be my advantage."
Xiao Yu's eyes lit up as he looked at this batch of one-handed swords. These were epic equipment! There were six of them in total, and they could produce one or two more every month. If he put them on the auction house, they could sell for several hundred dollars. If he pulled out all the teeth from Sgelari's nine heads, wouldn't he be able to forge more than a hundred of them? That would be fifty or sixty thousand dollars!
However, compared to the benefits brought by the Hydra's lair, this amount of money is really nothing. After all, he still needs to rely on those Hydras to conquer the world in the future, and he can't afford to offend their ancestors too much.
The idea of pulling Sgelari's tooth is something I can only dream about.
Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "I'll keep these swords for now. You can continue crafting equipment later. Accumulate all these pieces; I'll need them someday."
"As you command, my lord," the merman elder said respectfully.
Leaving the fish workshop, Xiao Yu was in a good mood. Although the Water Elemental couldn't use these equipment, they were all good items that could be used to issue quests and get adventurers to risk their lives.
Although I haven't encountered any adventurers yet, as a member of the game world, I'll have to deal with them sooner or later, and I'll need this equipment eventually.
Having settled the matter of the fish farm, Xiao Yu swam towards the direction of Sgelari. The matter of Fang of Sgelari had rekindled his interest in this demigod. This ancient creature, which had lived for tens of thousands of years, must know a lot of secrets, and he could dig them out.
The enormous hydra was still lying on the seabed, seemingly having recovered somewhat, but still in a terrible state; apart from its heads, its body remained completely still.
Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Good morning, Big Build. How are you feeling?"
Sgelari (Hydra demigod): "Same as before, but at least I'm free, aren't I? Although I still can't go anywhere, at least I'm more at ease. You look a bit different, Water Elemental Lord? I see. You've acquired this status so quickly? I must say, your growth has surprised me. I'm almost starting to look forward to your future performance."
Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "No problem, no problem."
For some reason, Xiao Yu felt a bit of Alexander when facing this enormous ocean beast. Perhaps it was an innate feeling when facing a colossal being. Speaking of which, his size had increased after advancing to the Water Elemental Lord, and he was already seven or eight meters tall. If he wanted to, he could grow to over ten meters tall by absorbing more water. However, in front of Sgelari, he still felt extremely small.
Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "I'm a little curious, who captured you?"
Sgelari (Hydra demigod): "A monster from the Abyss, its power is so great that even I cannot fight it."
Xiao Yu thought to himself, "Really? You're already this big, and there's a monster even bigger than you?"
It seemed that he sensed Xiao Yu's disbelief--
Sgelari (Hydra demigod): "In the ocean, there will always be beings you cannot comprehend, ancient beings hidden in the Abyss, even older than this world. The terror they bring is beyond your imagination."
At this point, Sgelari seemed to tremble with a lingering fear, causing the water to surge, but Sgelari quickly calmed down, as if remembering something, and suddenly said...
Sgelari (Hydra demigod): "By the way, you once said you wanted to become the ruler of the four Elemental Plane. So, your goal is to become the Elemental King?"
Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "The Elemental King? You mean the Water Elemental King? But even Neptulon couldn't rule over the four Elemental Plane. Why would you ask that?"
Sgelari (Hydra demigod): "No, I'm certainly not talking about that presumptuous title of Water Elemental King. In fact, in ancient times, there was only one king among the elements, known as the Elemental King —or the Elemental Lord, the Elemental Commander. The Elemental King possessed the power to rule over all elemental races. Whether in the sky or the sea, on the earth or at the earth's core, everywhere was his territory. Look at your crown; that's a treasure forged by the first Elemental King."
Xiao Yu was pleasantly surprised. He thought to himself, "Wow, I've really dug up a big secret!" He remembered that the notes on the Elemental Lord's Crown did mention that it was forged by the first Elemental King Elemental Lord's Crown the power of the four elements: wind, fire, water, and earth. Obviously, neither Neptulon, Ragnaros, Al'Akir, nor Therazane had such power.
Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Then why is there no longer a title of Elemental King?"
Sgelari (Hydra demigod): "Of course, it's because of the human heart. The Elemental King needs a ritual to be born, a ritual that requires the Highlord to complete together. However, the Elemental Lords were unwilling to submit to others, so the ancient oath was broken. They arrogantly declared themselves kings in their respective domains, and the title of Elemental King ceased to exist."
Xiao Yu became increasingly excited as he listened.
Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "How exactly is the ritual performed? What do I need to do to become the Elemental King?"
Sgelari (Hydra demigod): "I'm afraid I can't tell you, unless you can help me find a treasure."
Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "I command you in the name of your master to tell me this matter."
Sgelari (Hydra demigod): "Your commands are powerless against me. My will is so strong, the bond of my oath prevents me from attacking you, but that's all. If you want the answer, you must give me what I want. Actually, it's not difficult to obtain. The Naga treasury on the Lost Island holds countless treasures, including the Seed of Elements you desire. But there's another thing I want: the Water of Life. It's an orb formed from the power of life at the beginning of creation. With it, even the dead can be resurrected. Using it, perhaps I can regain my full power. Bring the Water of Life back to me, and I will tell you everything you want to know."
System notification: Triggered plot, the Secrets of the Elemental King, retrieve the Water of Life for the demigod Sgelari, and obtain the secrets of the Elemental King.
After saying that, Sgelari closed his eyes, as if the words he had just spoken had exhausted his strength.
"Okay, I knew it wouldn't be that simple. It's just a side quest, I'll do it, "Xiao Yu thought resignedly.
