Chapter 762: Storm Archer
Chapter 762: Storm Archer
On the Cloud Island.
Arona's footsteps hesitated with each step as she approached Lindsey.
She moved with an uncanny gait, drawing closer to the blind girl.
Although Arona was also an Awakened, her physical abilities were stronger than ordinary people, and her control over her powers had improved. However, as a blind person, psychological factors and her reliance on her heightened senses also made her cautious when walking.
So, when she reached the center of the Floating Island and heard Lindsey's breathing, more than ten minutes had already passed.
"Lindsey?" Arona called out, feeling her way forward.
Soon, she heard a reassuring voice greeting her:
"Arona, you're here?"
Snap—
At that moment, a strange sound of a fishing line being pulled reverberated through the air.
"..."
Although Arona found the sound incomprehensible, she trusted her acute hearing and asked:
"Lindsey..."
"I think I just heard... you fishing?" Arona spoke hesitantly.
In reality, just a short distance in front of her, Lindsey had just reeled in his fishing line, holding a fish with a triangular, arrowhead-shaped head that was entirely white.
[Cloud Skyfish]
[A peculiar fish species that lives in the air. Its meat is firm, highly nutritious, and incredibly delicious. Upon first consumption, it increases the eater's agility by a small amount. It can also be cooked into a gourmet delicacy.]
[A rare ingredient with low value.]
Lindsey's face was filled with a blissful smile.
As he had expected, the Cloud Sea Fishing Pole could indeed be used for fishing on the Cloud Island.
Moreover, this place was a special fishing ground.
The fish caught here were entirely different from those in ordinary Floating Island lakes!
For instance, the Cloud Skyfish in Lindsey's hand was a rare species that could only be caught in the clouds and the sky!
Placing the fresh catch into his sack, Lindsey cast his line again and then turned to Arona:
"Arona, don't just stand there."
"Come, let me get you a chair. You can sit here, and later, I can even cook something for you!"
Lindsey took out a chair from his bag.
However, Arona's face turned red, and she quickly shook her head in refusal:
"Um... Lindsey, I'd rather not sit on a chair."
Lindsey was surprised:
"If you're not sitting, are you just going to stand there?"
The girl before him had always followed his suggestions, and this was the first time she was refusing.
Then, right before Lindsey's eyes, Arona carefully bent her knees and sat down in front of him. She lowered her head, her voice barely audible:
"I'll just sit on the ground."
"It's soft and fluffy here... I feel... comfortable..."
"..."
Seeing Arona's shy demeanor, Lindsey smiled silently.
He felt relieved.
Considering Arona's actual age, this was how a young girl should behave. It was not her role as a leader in a religious group to constantly bear the weight of life and death.
Lindsey didn't ask further questions.
He focused his energy on fishing, and soon enough, his fishing line bent downward again.
"Here it comes!"
Lindsey immediately reeled in his catch.
Then, the Cloud Sea in front of him parted, and he forcefully pulled out a chest.
The treasure chest on the Cloud Island had a unique material; it felt cool to the touch, giving the initial impression of being made from ice jade. Upon closer inspection, the surface was engraved with ethereal cloud patterns, and the overall design was very aesthetically pleasing.
Click—
Lindsey ripped open the treasure chest with a single motion.
A pair of pristine white boots tumbled out, along with several Law Coins from the City of Law.
[Gear/Material: High Sky Boots]
[A running shoe tailored for those adept at sprinting. When equipped, it grants the user 5 points of Agility and a 10% increase in movement speed. Can also be used as a material to craft other items.]
[A simple and practical shoe with low value.]
"Oh?!"
Lindsey's eyes lit up.
He pulled up the crafting list on the workbench and found a formula.
[1 Floating Hand + 1 Drifting Wristguard + 1 High Sky Boots = Limit Runner]
The [High Sky Boots] and the [Floating Hand], which grants the ability to double jump, belong to the same series.
"Now I just need the [Drifting Wristguard]."
"And judging by the name of this gear, there should be a chance to obtain it in the Dust Path World, right?"
Lindsey was in high spirits and continued fishing with the hook.
The next catch was another treasure chest.
However, when Lindsey opened this chest, he found no gear inside, only a few Law Coins from the City of Law and a deep blue stone.
"A stone? Material?"
"Just one stone from a chest, it must be quite valuable."
Lindsey remained optimistic.
He picked up the blue stone and examined it, only to freeze in surprise.
[Material: Stormstone]
[A rare mineral born from the clouds only during the eve of a storm. Can be used as a material to craft other items.]
[A rare material with moderate value.]
Lindsey controlled his excitement.
Mechanically, he flipped through the crafting list and found an impressive synthesis formula.
[1 Atmospheric Essence + 1 Premium Wood + 1 Advanced Beast Sinew + 2 Stormstones = Storm Archer]
"Stormstone!"
"This is it!!!"
Lindsey didn't bother looking at the other formulas.
Without hesitation, he stuffed the Stormstone into his bag and continued fishing with the Cloud Sea Fishing Rod.
After a few more casts, on the fifth attempt, another chest containing a Stormstone emerged.
"Enough!"
Lindsey wasted no time and chose to synthesize.
A longbow with a deep blue body and white streamlined patterns appeared in his hands. The moment he touched this weapon, Lindsey could feel the power within—a swirling airflow and the roar of a storm!
Lindsey examined the attributes of this new weapon:
[Weapon: Storm Archer]
[A longbow imbued with the power of atmospheric storms, possessing the effects of Storm Walker, Piercing Arrow, Hurricane, and Storm. When wielded as a melee weapon, it generates a powerful cutting airflow. Can also be used as a material to craft other items.
Storm Walker: The storm's protection constantly surrounds the wielder, forming a permanent airflow that defends against and deflects enemy attacks.
Piercing Arrow: The speed of the arrows fired from this bow is at least twice the speed of sound, with significantly enhanced penetration.
Hurricane: Consumes Essence to imbue arrows with the power of a hurricane, causing intense cutting and piercing effects on enemies.
Storm: Provides arrows with water-attributed corrosive power, exerting strong suppression against fire-attributed enemies.]
["Let the storm rage even harder!"]
[A bow imbued with formidable power, of high value.]
