Chapter 916 - Current Strength
"How do you create an artifact?" asked Theo with a serious expression. This had been in his mind for a while.
On the one hand, he knew the artifact seemed to be attached to their owner for a long time. In fact, they could be considered the symbol of that person in the past. On the other hand, Theo wondered whether there was a special requirement he needed to note or not.
The serpent thought for a moment, contemplating if he could answer this question or not.
The suspense made Theo\'s heart racing as he couldn\'t contain his curiosity.
Fortunately, the serpent agreed to answer as he opened his mouth. "We don\'t have much time, so I\'ll give you a simple explanation.
"Your current weapon is classified as an artifact. Why? Because the material used to create that weapon can store your Order. If you continue using that weapon for decades, you will notice that the weapon can channel your energy better… In fact, only you can wield that weapon at that point.
"Why? Because it has absorbed your Magic Power that has been influenced by the Order. Suppose someone without or with an Order different from yours uses that weapon. In that case, the Order inside your weapon will clash with them, making it unusable.
"This is what it means to be an artifact. I don\'t know if you have noticed it or not, but when we get an artifact, we can absorb the Order that we used to have… and transfer the pure energy into your body, turning it into status points. That\'s all I can say."
Theo looked down, pondering the words over and over again in his mind.
"I see. The rank doesn\'t matter, huh. Shouldn\'t that mean I need to get a Divine Weapon first before using it for a long time?"
"Not necessarily so. Divine Weapons are rare. In our era, only those artisans could create Divine Weapons. The materials and techniques… I am afraid no one can create it anymore. Even the Mountain King can\'t. Also, you still have a few forms for your current weapon, you can still use it even if you find a Divine Weapon, right?"
"Certainly." Theo nodded in agreement.
"Anyway, that\'s all. Let\'s proceed with your training. Sit down. I\'ll tell you how to circulate your Magic Power to strengthen your body."
Without hesitation, Theo sat down in a lotus pose and closed his eyes, focusing on his Magic Power.
After seeing his focused face, the serpent started his lecture, guiding Theo to move his Magic Power from one position to another for three minutes.
It was pretty simple for Theo to remember. However, circulating the Magic Power was indeed a bit hard that he needed a couple of trials to succeed.
In the end, the serpent brought him back to reality and allowed him to try outside.
Clone Theo appeared right after Theo\'s consciousness returned, guarding Theo\'s real body.
It took him an hour before Theo managed to make a complete circulation.
"Hmm," Theo mumbled, feeling nothing from the circulation. He gradually opened his eyes and checked his body. "There\'s no change in my body. I guess I can only feel the effect after training for a long time because I might not feel the difference every single day."
"Still…" Theo narrowed his eyes and checked his status.

"Still, I wonder what people will think if they see my current skills as well as status." Theo smiled. "There is one A Rank Skill and one S Rank Skill. If I have enough money, I can also upgrade the rest to A Rank.
"For now, I think I don\'t need Illusion Construct anymore since I can use my Illusion Manipulation to replace it most of the time. Though, I need to release my Awareness to make it touchable. Nothing changes, I guess." Theo nodded, satisfied with the current development.
After assessing his body\'s condition, including his status, he lowered his vision and looked at the snake scale.
"Just like the crown, it\'s reduced to nothing…" Theo muttered, finding nothing on the ground where the snake scale was. Only two leather straps, which obviously were attached by the Greenlin Leader, remained.
"Considering the passing time, the only reason why it can survive until now was due to the Order coating it. Now that the Order had disappeared and I\'d absorbed the remnant energy, nothing stopped it from crumbling anymore." Theo observed what happened to the shield. "But what\'s about the Death Armor? I guess there\'s something special with this Death Armor… Whatever. I can\'t really come up with an explanation right now."
Although it was a shame that he couldn\'t use the scale as his shield, he indeed had reaped a huge reward from this scale.
After sorting his thoughts, he stood up and muttered, "I should have one or two days to spare… Should I start practicing the Supernatural Snake Body? Or should I focus on my mission first before training this body and Endurance?"
On the one hand, he might become stronger when hunting those monsters. On the other hand, he could focus on hunting first and return to a safe environment to train his body.
"Well, I should go to a safe environment first before training my body. I don\'t want to be arrogant, but I think I\'m strong enough against those frogs now." Theo made his decision and immediately rushed to the Dexie Plain.
Like the previous trip, Theo was extremely careful not to be surrounded by monsters when facing multiple Rare Class Monsters.
Finally, after a long journey, he finally reached his destination. It was a savanna with some hills scattered around the area.
"Time to hunt…" Theo smirked while looking around, trying to find the camp in charge of this mission.
