Eye System

Chapter 64: Ring Swap

[System do you know anything about this ring] he asks within his mind, baffled by everything he was told by the small man.

{Ding, from what has been scanned, what the man said is true, and it is saturated with evil energy and would mean instant death if any normal person wears it} tells him the system.

[Does that mean I can wear it] exclaims Lex in his mind, hoping to get stronger by any means and as quickly as possible.

{Ding, the system would recommend the host to keep it as a last resort during battle. If worn your body will be overwhelmed by evil energy and with the Originator Eye Demon having fused with your soul, it will fuel him and give him and you an unimaginable power boost, but you may lose control and you know what happened last time} recommends the system.

With this, he knew that it was better to be taken over by The Originator Eye Demon, or the other side to himself, then die, so wanted to keep the ring. However, he had to complete his mission and wouldn't be able to do as he pleases with such powerful levellers and cultivators in this reality.

[System how can I keep it if I have to complete the mission] he asks, hoping that the system had a solution.

{Ding, did the host forget that without the white robe, now called Kano, Max Ford wouldn't have been a blacksmith} the system reminds him.

"Oh yeah, but how is Kano going to help me keep the ring without failing the mission," he mumbles to himself, still confused.

{Ding, the host is able to use Kano to form weapons, all it needs to be provided is materials and something to copy or a design} tells him the system.

"Amazing" he exclaims as he jumps up.

"Kano can you really copy things and make a copy if I give you the materials," he asks.

He felt the robe he was wearing vibrate, signifying to him that it could.

{Ding, technically the host will be completing the mission, however, the copy will not have the evil energy the original has and will merely be a normal ring} explains the system.

Lex felt that his luck in this reality was many times better and knew that lots of good luck could only lead to something really bad happening to the future and wanted to exploit it as much as he could for whatever is coming.

Walking into an alleyway which were very common in the larger outer country, which had a very rustic layout and building design, and Lex was in the outer part of the outer country that was filled with poverty and slums in most cases.

Taking off Kano, Lex takes a seat on the ground and activated his Scouting Eye to make sure that nobody was watching.

"Now what do I do to copy the ring," he asks Kano.

The robe used a corner to imitate a person and pointed at the ring then himself, telling Lex to give him the ring.

Placing the ring on the robe as soon as it touched the robe it seemed to be sucked out of his hand and disappear.

Lex was surprised, but knew how mysterious these robes were and trusted the system with everything he had so wasn't worried he lost the ring.

"Now what," asks Lex.

Kano tried to show him that it needed materials, but to Lex, all he could see was the white robe fluttering before him.

[System what should I do next] he asks hoping to get the answer from the system instead.

{Ding, provide Kano materials in order to form a copy of the ring} replies the system.

Lex felt that he was reliant too much on the system for almost anything and added gaining information and knowledge from this reality, continent and finding out more about the continent and cultivation in general for himself.

Withdrawing a small dagger from his inventory, because he thought that a small ring wouldn't require many materials anyway.

Placing the dagger onto the robe that lay spread out on the ground, the dagger the same as the ring was taken in by the robe and disappeared.

Activating his spacial eye, Lex could sense that space was moved, but was too weak to understand or see what was going on and the closer he looked at the robe the more he strained his mind and eyes.

Retracting his spacial eye, he felt his eyes throbbing in pain and his mind was aching.

However, looking at the robe nothing happened at it still lay there.

[System what happened, what do I do now] he asks within his mind worried that he lost the ring and ruined Kano.

{Ding, to recreate such a valuable ring, even if it has no energy it still requires a much larger amount of materials which will be compressed and changed to form the ring and you should continue to supply materials until the process is complete} tells him the system.

Lex once again felt stupid and didn't like to be unprepared and below anybody ever since he had gained the system.

Taking out all the weapons that were least valuable, Lex was placing swords, sabres, maces, halberds and all kinds of large weapons onto the robe, and they all disappeared but nothing happened.

After seemingly feeding Kano almost half the weapons he had within his inventory, that he stole from Max, he finally saw a bright flash of light that blinded and shocked him.

Blinking rapidly and regaining his vision he looks down on the ground to see two identical rings on the ground and Kano still lay there and seemed to be fatigued.

Withdrawing a the last food pellet he has he throws it onto Kano to experiment whether the robe could also absorb energy and in the same way it took in the weapons, the pill disappeared and Kano seemed to be rejuvenated again.

Grabbing the rings Lex knew the one that had evil energy as it would connect with whoever takes it and that connection can only be broken by giving it away and placed it his inventory.

"Kano you can't rest now, let's finish this mission then we can both rest," says Lex as he grabs Kano and wraps it around him.

The white robe enlarged and wrapped tightly around Lex like a mummy, as he walks off in the darkness of the night towards the store.

"This was a massive hit to the weapons I had stolen which were ultimately wealth, I hope this ring is worth it" he mumbles hopefully.

Lex rushed off towards the drop point and felt that his body was getting slightly stronger due to all the running he was doing, but knew he had to designate time to cultivate both his body and power thoroughly, otherwise, the constant intake of pills will weaken him.

Lex's body was average for a non-leveller, but it was still able to have a slightly higher work rate with his LVL 1 energy that would help, but overall he was still extremely weak.

He had a Soul Pet and now Kano that needed energy to sustain and knew how important it was to have a strong sturdy body so knew that he would need to cultivate, but he had so much to do, and a limited time until the inevitable death of Angela and the disappearance of Ella occurs.

The 10 miles between the stores was covered by Lex in less than an hour, and he saw the destination was a pawn and antique store.

He gave the ring to a curious old man who had gloves and a complete set of armour to protect himself and left straight away quickly worried that the man would notice anything.

[I am too weak and ignorant right now, I need to cultivate and research in spare time while completing missions and watching over the orphanage and Angela] he decided, realising how weak and ignorant he was.
