Chapter 482 Loot!
sparks flew as the metal of william's abyssal weapon shifter dug into the equally dense metallic surface of the treasure mimic. a one-centimeter groove formed in the treasure mimic's casing where the greatsword struck, but the weapon was moving much slower than william anticipated.
he shifted his weight, leaning over and placing his left arm over the dull end of the greatsword. the additional force was enough to cut another two centimeters, but the abyssal weapon shifter bent slightly, as if it was a metal spoon scooping ice cream.
the treasure mimic tried to pull away from the greatsword, but william's pressure was locking it in place. treasure mimics didn't have much movement ability, this one barely reaching the ascension realm.
its strength wasn't much different, other than its bite force. even if it entered the deity realm, the treasure mimic likely still wouldn't be able to pull away.
it struggled in place for almost a minute before it eventually spewed a spray of seal mana. william was unaffected, but the abyssal weapon shifter became softer than normal, bending in an awkward direction that prevented william from using it anymore.

he pulled the greatsword back from the treasure mimic and stored the damaged abyssal weapon shifter in his space ring. it would take a few hours to recover, even with some arrays that william added to it in the past.
this one's tough! william couldn't help but exclaim in awe when he looked at the treasure mimic. his full-force attack had only created a three-centimeter-deep cut on its body. if he wanted to destroy the treasure mimic, he was going to need to use a lot more strength than he had revealed.
there's no one here right now, and the way in here is blocked. i doubt anyone else has the ability to reach this area of the dungeon, so i should be safe. william thought to himself.
he opened the domain of fire while simultaneously retrieving a starmetal longsword that he had forged well before he ascended. its surface was sleek and sharp, having been well-maintained inside of william's space ring.
the abyssal weapon shifter was william's weapon of choice because it could transform into any weapon he wanted it to, but that did not mean it was his strongest. in fact, the starmetal weapons were made of a much rarer material than the abyssal stone used in forging the abyssal weapon shifter.
the only reason william hadn't made a new weapon shifter is because he had grown attached to his current one, but it seemed that he'd need to look for some new materials at this point. it wouldn't be long before william was facing enemies that exceeded the level of the abyssal weapon shifter.
william collected all of the items and stored them within his space rings, then counted out his current number of quake dungeon gems. he combined what he had collected on the first 13 floors and added it to what he had found recently, reaching a total of 4,362 quake dungeon gems.
if his number was correct, that meant the treasure mimic had dropped over three thousand gems by itself. also, the conversion rate for quake dungeon gems to spirit jade was 100 to 1, meaning he essentially had 43 spirit jades!
quicksilver ore sold for a single spirit jade, and antitoxin stones were worth 9, which meant william could buy both of these items right now. not only that, but he'd have 33 spirit jades left over that could be used in the auction house.
that said, william remembered that the advanced electro core was worth 80 spirit jades. if that item wasn't something sold in the auction house, he wondered if he was still very poor. after all, two entire days of farming in the dungeon only came out to half the cost of the advanced electro core.
i still need more gems! i wish these students weren't part of my academy, otherwise i might make a habit of robbing them.
-you would bully children for their money? how low can you go?
most of them are the same age as me! some of them are even older! you can't say that.
-you're hiding your strength and even the third years barely compare to you. they might as well be children.
it's a cultivation world. survival of the fittest! william wasn't going to take the system's abuse when he had bigger things to worry about than a bunch of students' feelings. besides, i told you i wouldn't steal from students of the same academy, so i won't.
-but you would if they weren't from filem?
absolutely!
the system didn't respond further, but william sensed a mental sigh. his lips curled up as he stored the two halves of the treasure mimic in an empty space ring. after a short break, william moved onward to the fifteenth floor.
