Honkai Impact 3rd: Catching the Herrscher of Sentience at the Start

"...Could this be a cursed item?" Fu Lin murmured, staring at the blood-absorbing ring.

[Would you like to bind "Twilight" (Artifact)?]

[Bind][Reject (Unavailable)]

"It didn't actually need blood... then what was all that light earlier?"

[Twilight's built-in show-off feature. It glows upon contact with blood...]

"Ahem! Not bad, it meets my standards. Let's bind it first." Fu Lin commented, somewhat amused. Even weapons these days had their own flair for theatrics.

-----------------------------

Silently reciting "Twilight" in his heart, the ring on Fu Lin's forefinger turned into mist, gradually converging in his palm, eventually forming an incomparably sharp longsword.

"Good sword!" Fu Lin swung the sword in his hand, and immediately, scarlet sword light filled the live stream, as if it would tear the space apart in the next second.

Seeing the sword's sharpness, Fu Lin nodded in satisfaction and slowly looked at the hilt. He saw two engraved characters: "Twilight... good name."

Fu Lin looked at the blood-red blade with satisfaction, then smeared a drop of blood on it. Instantly, a scarlet glow rose, evoking a sense of impending death.

"Cool~ Truly a weapon with built-in flair effects."

Satisfied, Fu Lin put Twilight away, watching it transform back into a ring. The more he looked, the more he liked it.

"Well, there's still one more draw."

He reached into the treasure pouch again, pulling out something resembling a train ticket. Curious about what it was, Fu Lin looked at the description.

[Astral Express Three-Day Tour Ticket (Two Seats): Upon use, summons a train from another world. Board the train to travel and explore the world of the Astral Express for three days.]

"What kind of world is the Astral Express's World?" Fu Lin asked in confusion as he looked at the ticket in his hand.

But no one was destined to answer him.

After putting away the ticket, Fu Lin took a portion of his newly earned live-stream points and exchanged them for three basic enhancement stones, feeling pained as he glanced at the remaining 11,764 points.

Having made the purchase, Fu Lin took out two pieces of clothing and placed the enhancement stones on them. He checked the description and was instantly speechless.

[Basic Spirit Garment: Strengthened by basic enhancement stones, ordinary clothing is no longer ordinary.]

"…So, how is it not ordinary?" Fu Lin examined the enhanced clothing in his hands. Apart from feeling softer to the touch, there didn't seem to be any other changes.

[After enhancement, the Basic Spirit Garment automatically adjusts to the wearer's body for maximum comfort and features self-cleaning and repair functions. Everyone who tries it loves it!]

"Ahem, whoa! Amazing, even at the basic level!" Fu Lin was dumbfounded. Clothing that didn't need washing and could self-repair itself was... too awesome!

Next, he brought the last enhancement stone close to Twilight. Before he could smash it down, the stone dissolved into particles and was completely absorbed by the crimson gem.

[Ability Unlocked: Weapon can turn into Blade, Spear, Staff, Stick, Halberd, Axe, Dagger, Whip, Bow, Crossbow.]

"It unlocked ten forms at once. Truly worthy of being an artifact-level item." Fu Lin looked at Twilight, feeling this prize from the lottery was entirely thanks to Kiana's blessings!

In a good mood, Fu Lin exited the live stream and strolled leisurely toward Fu Shi and the others.

"Where were you just now, brother?" Sirin threw herself into Fu Lin's arms and asked worriedly.

"Had to rush to the bathroom. What's wrong with everyone?" Fu Lin patted Sirin's head and looked curiously at the somewhat despondent group.

"It's that host again, talking about a happy ending, but in the end, everyone was gone. Wuwuwu." Wutong wiped her tears, looking pitiful.

"Maybe the host didn't expect it to end this way either..." Fu Lin scratched his head, feeling guilty inside.

"Chicken boy~" Fu Shi patted Fu Lin's shoulder and said with a shake of her head, "Not every happy ending is an…"

"…Sirin, bite her!" Seeing Fu Shi acting all mysterious, Fu Lin felt speechless and quickly instructed Sirin, "Ahh! You bit the wrong person!"

"Dumb brother, what do you take Sirin for?" Sirin let go and looked at Fu Lin helplessly. Somehow, she felt her brother had become more cheerful but also sillier. Could he have been infected by the Herrscher of Sentience?

Meanwhile, Fu Lin carefully wiped the clear bite mark and saliva on his arm, muttering softly, "The little angel has learned to bite!"

"I want to bite too." Seeing this, Fu Shi grabbed Fu Lin's other arm and said enthusiastically.
