[Introduction: Come, let me take a good look at you.

Made with the eyeball of some creature and combined with peculiar blood, it’s a unique piece of equipment, a special accessory.]

The attributes are somewhat peculiar.

At first, Kane saw this gemstone and thought it was some kind of mage equipment.

From the appearance, it indeed looks like mage-type equipment; a melee brute wouldn’t need such fancy stuff.

After all, it’s a gemstone, so it’s obviously an accessory, but you can’t determine its equipment position from its appearance.

As a result, this equipment turns out to be a universal piece.

Contrary to what Kane thought, it’s not a mage-type equipment. From the attribute pairing, the primary match is undoubtedly an attacker of the assassin type.

After all, its first attribute is to conceal attacking actions and oneself, and at rule level concealment.

Thinking back to the attack Longbei and the others encountered before, it was an assassin.

So the most suitable position for this equipment is clear.

Next is all attackers.

Here, attackers can use it regardless if they’re physical or magic attackers, close-range or long-range.

These concealed actions allow their attacks to be unexpected; other attributes also help them better find enemy weaknesses and flaws during attacks.

Although not absolutely perfect, there’s a clear difference compared to the previous special gloves.

But it can definitely be called a small treasure, ranking middle to upper at tricolor level.

Moreover, since this equipment is an accessory type, its value is enhanced.

So the question arises.

How to equip this thing, since it is neither a ring nor a necklace, nor does it have a pin to become a badge.

Looking at it from appearance, it looks more like a raw material; should you add some accessories to it?

Should you believe yourself and place it where you want?

Like embedding it into a necklace if you want a necklace, into a ring if you want a ring.

The information Longbei sent didn’t clearly explain how to use this equipment.

Kane can only appraise more carefully, discovering deeper attributes through mastery of the Book of Adventure.

Looking at the introduction of the special equipment.

Place it on the eye.

On the eye?

Kane couldn’t help but show a big question, how to place this thing on the eye, dig out one’s eye and insert it?

If it’s just to blind one eye for this equipment, it’s obviously not worth it.

What idiot would create such equipment...

But then again, considering it’s outsider equipment, one can’t judge prematurely.

Following the appraised attributes, Kane relies on feeling to slowly place the equipment on the brow.

Infusing subtle magic power.

With a cool sensation from the brow, the gemstone embedded itself in.

Afterward, the feeling as if the gemstone melted away came.

Alright, indeed it’s meant to be embedded in oneself; I didn’t guess wrong.

Only it’s embedded on the forehead.

Kane silently complained.

The peculiar feeling compelled Kane to involuntarily reach out and touch it again.

Ouch.

Kane suddenly held his brow painfully because he poked his own eye.

This thing actually turned directly into an eye, poking it felt exactly like poking one’s own eye.

Kane immediately raised his hand, and a mirror appeared following the magic power, looking at himself in the mirror.

As the eye opened, Kane noticed another change in vision.

His vision inexplicably widened, directions needing an upward eye or head movement now can be seen directly.

Just like a piece of vision expanded upwards for no reason.

And looking at himself in the mirror.

Only to see a vertical pupil appearing on the brow above, between the two eyes, looking identical to his side eyes, just changed from horizontal to vertical.

Controlling the eye to blink, the eye started blinking according to Kane’s thoughts, closing, moving left and right, up and down.

Can even roll back.

Such a peculiar, strange feeling.

Kane couldn’t help but feel playful, controlling the eyeball to move left and right, both eyes looking to the left while the top eye looked to the right.

Instantly, the vision expanded again, and the range that can be seen increased once more.

This equipment is really interesting.

The equipment produced by Mist World tends to be quite rigid, though that’s somewhat unfair to say.

Perhaps... classic.

And the equipment obtained from the outside world, they are truly all sorts of strange and bizarre forms.

Looking at the vertical pupil in the mirror, Kane discovered that he seemed to still be able to make some changes to its appearance.

Magic Power surged into the extra eye under his control.

The iris instantly transformed into a blood-red color, and the sclera became a dazzling crystalline form.

As Magic Power flowed in, the eye began to take on various bizarre shapes, even forming into a shape resembling three connected rotating tomoe.

It felt like customizing a face, specifically molding the eyes.

After playing for most of the day, he finally had enough, and Kane reached out to place his hand on the eye.

Magic Power surged into the eye, and the socket area began to change, with a refreshing sensation gathering at the center of his brow, slowly protruding.

A cold Gemstone emerged from the center of his brow, and once it was fully out, Kane held it in his hand.

It was just its original form.

And the eye on his forehead in the mirror disappeared without leaving a trace.

Longbei and his team this time could be considered exceptionally lucky.

Both pieces of Equipment were excellent, whether it was the Attributes or the Skills, they could be described as perfect.

Not to mention, these two pieces of Equipment were special, not occupying normal Equipment slots, making them even stronger.

If these two pieces of Equipment were taken out and sold, they would surely fetch a sky-high price.

At the very least, they would require two equally exceptional tri-color pieces to exchange for one of them.

Did Longbei and his team become so lucky all of a sudden?

The so-called bad luck was just a collection of luck that exploded all at once?

Thinking of this, Kane couldn’t help but shake his head with a laugh.

However, at this moment, Kane furrowed his brow, beginning to ponder about the person who suddenly appeared in a fragment of the Death World to ambush them, if it was a person.

These two pieces of Equipment were clearly crafted specifically for Assassins, and having such exceptional pieces meant that the enemy who ambushed Longbei and his team was far from ordinary.

Kane couldn’t help but start to think logically, following the information provided by Longbei and his team.

While thinking, Kane also began to tread the Path of the Formless, starting to walk in the Mist.

First of all, as Longbei and his team mentioned, they explored that World Fragment once more but found no trace of the enemy living there.

This meant the enemy who ambushed them was not a native resident of that World Fragment.

Initially speculated to be like them, an Explorer, or perhaps someone who discovered their presence.

But this brought up a problem.

Although the Mist did not explicitly forbid it, an existence at the tri-color level outside the Mist would generally become friends if they met, as long as they weren’t enemies.

At least there would be no conflict, and they wouldn’t engage in life-and-death battles.

After all, those who have made it to the tri-color level are strong enough and have come a long way.

There’s even an unspoken rule that even old enemies won’t engage in large-scale battles outside the Mist.

Generally speaking, Explorers outside the Mist mostly encounter friends, or at least, those who might lend a helping hand; encounters leading to mutual animosity are rare.

Not to mention direct conflict.

And it was clear Longbei and his team did not recognize their assailant.

If it was an Explorer, then the attacker could only be a madman or harbor some unique intention.

However, after Longbei and his team coordinated, they managed to take down a rather strong enemy, an existence at the tri-color level.

The Magic Stone being fully charged was the best evidence.

After all, to charge a Magic Stone with life force, the power within must be mixed with fragments of the Soul to complete the task.

Could an Explorer be taken down in one fell swoop?

Clearly not, as anyone at the tri-color level would certainly have revival tools.

Not reviving and dying directly, without anything other than two pieces of tri-color Equipment on them.

Putting these two points together, it doesn’t quite seem like an Explorer, who’d usually be armed to the teeth.

For someone at the tri-color level, even if there aren’t many pieces of tri-color Equipment, they should be fully equipped with gold.

Neither an Explorer nor a native of the Fragment.

Possessing powerful strength and formidable Equipment, they ambushed Longbei and his team without hesitation, directly aiming to take lives.

Combined, these thoughts made Kane involuntarily furrow his brow.

A notion formed in his mind.

Could they be those entities lurking around the Mist World, peering into the Mist?

Previously, Kane, through Aloke, learned in the Secret Council’s meeting that the activation of the World Ring would temporarily expose the Mist, and due to the peculiarities of the Mist events, unfriendly entities from nearby worlds would be attracted like sharks smelling blood.

The outer defensive line is certainly composed of patrols led by colorful-level monarchs.

Furthermore, it is known that these World Fragments outside the Mist are attracted and fixed in place around the Mist World.

World Fragments explored by colorful Explorers would be dragged into the Mist World.

Pulled to a certain place for digestion, turning into a Dungeon.

Under normal circumstances, outside the Mist, then into the World Ring, followed by the normal Mist World.

Orochi also mentioned that this time, there were too many unfriendly entities drawn by the scent of blood, and even issued a special notice for everyone to be cautious.

Additionally, with each activation of the World Ring, the exposure range increases, leading to stronger attraction.

Consequently, the expanded range meant wider areas needing patrols.

It seems Longbei and his team were unfortunate enough to encounter such an entity.

Thankfully, Longbei and his team were paired, as a solo encounter might have resulted in a fatal ambush.

Even if not fatal, severe injury was a possibility.

Fortunately, Longbei and his team were strong enough, paired to support each other, having risen from the copper level together, their tacit coordination was beyond question.

It seems that after this exploration trip, Kane should find Orochi to understand the current situation of the patrol defense line outside.

With unfriendly entities slipping in, it seems the situation might be a bit serious.
