Chapter 17 Unsealing the Magical Artifact, the Birth of a Famous Sword
"Eric, can we really defeat this Kobold Leader?" Tonny asked, looking at the towering figure with trepidation. The sheer amount of health the Kobold Leader had was intimidating, not to mention the giant axe on its back, which looked capable of turning anyone into minced meat.
"I don't know," Eric replied, shaking his head. Plans never keep up with changes. There was no terrain in the entire mine that could be utilized. To kill the Kobold Leader, they could only engage in a direct battle.
The Kobold Leader was the strongest monster Eric had ever seen.
If Eric had enough time, he would have come here at level 5, wearing a full set of Bronze Equipment, giving him an 80% chance of defeating the Kobold Leader. However, Jack Scott had given him very little time. To finish the battle within twenty minutes, only a team of elite level 5 players could possibly do it.
But they were only two people, and their equipment was very poor. It was simply impossible to kill the Kobold Leader within twenty minutes.
Failing the mission would have serious consequences. This hidden mission was a one-time opportunity. If they failed, they would never receive it again.
However, giving up on the mission was not an option for Eric.
"I can only give it a try," Eric reluctantly took out the Demonic Weapon, the Abyssal Ravager.
In his previous life, Eric had only seen a few Demonic Weapons. Anyone who had witnessed the power of a Demonic Weapon would be overwhelmed by its power. Those who could control a Demonic Weapon were even rarer.
Crimson Bloodwarrior had once become famous in a guild battle of over a hundred thousand players, establishing the glorious War God Empire. At that time, Crimson Bloodwarrior wielded the blood-colored Demonic Weapon, the Crimson Ghost Axe, and charged into a group of thousands of warriors, killing without anyone being able to stop him. The enemies fled in disarray, unable to withstand Crimson Bloodwarrior's axe. It was an unstoppable force.
Then there was the mad hero Windchase Marksman, wielding the Demonic Weapon, Ghostly Howl. He defended a city alone with his bow, and not a single player could approach within 100 yards of the city. Even from 100 yards away, Windchase Marksman shot and killed Reid Jones of the Heroic Guild.
Players who wielded Demonic Weapons were renowned top experts in Divine Realms: Legends, evoking awe in others.
System: [ Do you want to bind the Demonic Weapon, Abyssal Ravager? ]
Eric took a deep breath and chose to bind it. As for the potential backlash effects of the Demonic Weapon, Eric didn't care at the moment. Since those people could wield Demonic Weapons, how could he, as a reborn player, lose to those 'newbies' who had not yet grown?
The moment the binding was completed, Eric felt all the strength in his body being sucked away. His level plummeted to 0, but in an instant, a surge of power flowed through his body, even stronger than when he was at level 3.
After checking the attributes of the Abyssal Ravager, Eric was astonished.
The Abyssal Ravager, a one-handed sword, a Demonic Weapon.

The Abyssal Ravager was crafted by the master craftsman Olysis using the fangs of the Black Dragon King, making it one of the thirty-six legendary swords in Divine Realms: Legends, ranking thirty-first. However, this sword was cursed by the Black Dragon King. Besides granting the wielder incredible power, it would periodically backlash against the wielder. If the backlash couldn't be suppressed, the wielder would suffer a permanent 50% reduction in all attributes, and the sword could not be dropped or traded.
Seeing such attributes and numerous accompanying skills, it was truly a divine artifact. However, there were still thirty-five other swords besides the Abyssal Ravager, and it was hard to imagine what the top-ranked sword would be like.
"Eric, don't scare me. How did you become level 0?" Tonny, who was beside him, looked at Eric in shock. Dealing with the Kobold Leader was already troublesome enough, and now that Eric had dropped to level 0, how could they continue the fight?
"Don't worry; use a smoke bomb to clear out the other small monsters first. I'll deal with the Kobold Leader," Eric instructed. He opened his attribute panel and allocated all six free attribute points to agility, bringing his agility to 20. Activating his agility and swiftness, he was eager to test his sword against the Kobold Leader.

Unlocking the hidden skills of Strength and Endurance allowed Eric to unleash his body's full potential, no longer just a three-second hero.
Although Eric was at level 0, his attack power and attributes far exceeded those of a level 3 player. His health was comparable to that of a level 5 Shield Warrior, making him as tough as a tank. With a plethora of high-level skills, Eric was fully capable of taking on the Kobold Leader.
As Eric adjusted to his body, Tonny had already cleared out all the surrounding Kobolds, leaving only the Kobold Leader.
"Once I draw its aggro, go all out with your attacks," Eric instructed. Stepping forward, he charged towards the Kobold Leader.
Wind-chasing Sword!
In the blink of an eye, Eric was in front of the Kobold Leader. Before it could react, two black flashes struck its neck, causing blood to splatter. The Kobold Leader let out a scream as two horrifying damage numbers appeared.
-63, -128.
As the Kobold Leader raised its axe, another sword strike hit its unprotected flesh.
Cleave!
Another strike dealt 105 damage, showcasing the immense power of a level 4 cleave.
Before the axe could fall, Eric had already retreated, unleashing a level 4 Thunderbolt.
Three bolts of raging lightning pierced through the Kobold Leader's massive body, causing -84, -101, and -123 damage.
In just one encounter, Eric had taken away over 600 health points from the Kobold Leader, showcasing the terrifying power of the Abyssal Ravager. Even Eric himself was astonished by its power, while Tonny stood frozen in the distance.
