Opening the skill bar, that was the skill’s description When the effect of the skill changed, Feng Bujue had been quite shocked . He did not know that a skill could upgrade in-game because the game hadn’t explained this setting before . This should be something that was free for the players to explore, something that would be written into ‘guides’ . But after knowing that, more problems appeared . Title skills aside, other skills like Body Enhancement Spell that had constant exhaustion, would they upgrade too in the future?
Naturally, customer service could not answer this question . He also could not find any threads related to this on the game forum, so Feng Bujue put it to the side for the time being . That was pretty much what changed for Feng Bujue over the week . There was one more thing that deserved a special mention, and that was the Bell of Jin Gang . After defeating the Bell Demon in the Realm of the Bell, Feng Bujue and Passing Rain were not teleported out of the space . This meant that they had to trigger some other event, so they continued to explore the island . Since the boss was dead, there were no more illusory effects on the island, so they soon reached an empty field in the middle of the island and found a giant magic circle that was marked by numerous praying altars . An object was placed in the middle of the circle, and that was the Bell of Jin Gang . After picking it up, Feng Bujue, Passing Rain, and the NPC, Lu Qingning, were moved out from the realm and returned to the northern mountain of Chang Lin .

Item Name: Bell of Jin Gang
Item Type: Other
Quality: Excellent
Effects: Can conduct these four functions: One, observe a NPC’s detailed information; Two, observe a monster’s detailed information (except the boss monster); Three, obtain the buff of ‘Death Warning’ for five minutes; Four, double the effect of your next Sorcery Skill (within an acceptable range) .
Remark: Cannot be traded after picked up, but the item can be sold to the official shop . It has a cooldown period of twelve hours (Will end after leaving the scenario) . After activating all four effects, the Bell of Jin Gang will go into cooldown . Players can also start the cooldown actively . During the cooldown period, none of the effects can be used .
———
This item did not have any equip requirements and looked like it had many functions, but really… there were only two useable functions . Normally, in a long scenario, after using the first two functions, Feng Bujue would actively set the cooldown timer . The Death Warning was a bit weak . To be frank, the effect was that the bell would give out a ring to signal the level of threat . For example, if a zombie appeared before the player, the bell would ring, and the closer the zombie got, the faster the ringing would become . But if there was a giant beast that appeared before the player, the ringing would be incessant from the beginning, and when the beast’s feet stomped from above, the ringing would still be the same .
This effect might be somewhat useful in some circumstances… like when there was very low visibility and the player could not use their sight to confirm the location of the enemy . But the problem was… would that not give away the player’s own location?
Feng Bujue had tested the fourth effect . Obviously, Body Enhancement Spell was not included in the reasonable range, so it could not enjoy the double buff . As a constant effect, that was to be expected . Wicked King Immolation Black Dragon Wave would enjoy that effect, but Feng Bujue had used it already, and he did not have any other active Sorcery skill . In any case, this Bell of Jin Gang allowed Feng Bujue to check the stats of NPCs and elite monsters . He normally would not use the other two effect .

Ting!
A system announcement rang, and Feng Bujue received a mail . He clicked on the panel and came to the mail page . The title of the mail read, “I’ll give you the other two items tomorrow . ” The sender was Flashes of Sword . When he saw the title, Feng Bujue understood it . The people from Jiang Hu had created the items stored inside Hard disk 2455-A-1, and according to their agreement, Flashes of Sword would send three of them to Feng Bujue .
“Hmm… The man is good for his word,” Feng Bujue commented and accepted the attachment to the mail . The item entered his inventory directly . He opened it to see…
———
Name: Bottomless Grenade Box
Type: Tool
Quality: Excellent
Function: Generates grenades .
Special effect: Every twenty minutes, the vessel will generate a Mark II Hand Grenade .
Remark: Only two items generated from this vessel can be kept at the same time, regardless of whether the product is placed inside the vessel or not . The generated grenades cannot be sold at the shop or auction house . Once the item leaves the vessel for 120 minutes and hasn’t exploded, it will automatically disappear .
———
Feng Bujue immediately took out the box . It looked like a tube used to store shuttlecocks, but it had a black metallic casing and was much heavier . Twisting it open, he titled it to the side, and a grenade rolled onto his palm .
———
Name: Mark II Hand Grenade (Generated)
Item Type: Consumable
Quality: Normal
Special Effect: Non-discerning explosive damage
Remark: The delay after pulling the trigger is 4 to 4 . 8 seconds . The damage radius is five to ten meters . The teeth-like surface creates more shrapnel after the explosion, and the damage radius of the shrapnel can reach up to fifty meters, so please take cover after throwing it .
———
“Hmm… This is not bad, so unexpectedly good in fact…” Feng Bujue mumbled . “So, what are the twenty designs inside the hard disk for something so powerful to be given away?”
He paused like something came to him . “Or perhaps… due to my actions in the scenario, has Flashes of Sword purposely given me something related to explosives?”
Feng Bujue placed the grenade back into the vessel and placed the tool in his inventory . “Oh well…”
The other three from Underworld Frontline were not online, and the others on his friends list were either in-game or not close to him . So, Feng Bujue’s masochist nature reappeared, and he turned his gaze once more to Nightmare Difficulty Solo Survival Mode .

The city of Omen is on the cutting-edge of learning and science, and the things going on behind the backs of the Institute and the government, and sometimes with their approval...well, they don’t really matter.

It's here that the individual known as Nemesis Jones, a self-styled private investigator, arrives, stumbling onto the doorstep of a curious bookstore called Beaumort's. He's here in search of answers, but all he seems to find is more questions - like the strange girl who arrived at Beaumort's shortly after him, and the peculiar stranger who just may have the answers he seeks.
