Chapter 178

Feng Xi looked at the First Emperor and said, "Your Majesty, would you like to try it? You aren't very fond of your current appearance, are you?"

"...No need."

The First Emperor pondered for a moment and said solemnly, "If I were to use this card, it would mean I am afraid—afraid that this old body is no longer of use."

"I will not retreat. Even in this frail, aging body, I will let the others know."

"I, Qin Shi Huang, am inferior to no one!"

"Clap, clap, clap!"

"Well said!"

Upon hearing this, the Conqueror clapped while laughing, "That is the demeanor of an emperor through the ages—never easily yielding to old age."

"Then, what about you, Diarmuid?"

Feng Xi looked at Diarmuid and asked, "Didn't you always want to compete with Saber using swordsmanship?"

"I..."

Diarmuid also hesitated for a moment and said, "Forget it. I descended this time to prove my strength under the Lancer class; I cannot give up halfway."

Although he knew that becoming a Saber would significantly increase his strength, he had his own ideas.

Just as the First Emperor said, giving up now would be equivalent to being afraid.

Feng Xi: "..."

Oh my, I didn't expect that no one would use this thing for the time being.

I was looking forward to seeing what they would look like when they changed classes.

It can't be helped; I'll have to return it to the King for now and see who has the inclination to use it later.

"Ding! Congratulations to group member Diarmuid for obtaining 'Magic Dress - Waves and Ripples'!"

Looking at the two swords—one red and one yellow—in the picture, Diarmuid was stunned.

He was all too familiar with these two swords; they were his own swords from when he was alive, two demonic swords.

The yellow one is "Beagalltach," and the red one is "Moralltach."

It is said that during Diarmuid's life, when he deemed the danger to be relatively low, he would use Beagalltach and the Yellow Rose, but when he deemed it a matter of life and death, he would bring out Moralltach and the Red Rose.

Moralltach is Diarmuid's strongest weapon.

This demonic sword was bestowed upon him by the Celtic god of the sea and the Otherworld, "Manannán," and is known for its guaranteed kill and victory on the first strike.

This sword can bring Diarmuid certain victory and bestow failure and death upon his enemies.

Feng Xi was also somewhat surprised that Diarmuid had such good luck, actually pulling the bond dress for his own Saber class.

If Diarmuid could switch to Saber and then use this card, his strength would definitely be like a tiger with wings.

Diarmuid, having read the effects of the dress, understood this point, but he still did not intend to give up.

Moreover, this dress was not entirely useless right now.

After using it, he could summon Beagalltach and a yellow spear shaft for his use.

Of course, they were not the true Noble Phantasms, merely a pair of projections.

Although Diarmuid is currently a Lancer, that does not mean he has forgotten his swordsmanship.

Using this card while in the Lancer class allows him to use both spear and sword, which is not bad at all.

In fact, using spear and sword together is his most proficient combat mode; unfortunately, due to the constraints of his class, he can only use dual spears or dual swords.

Next, it was the turn of Hassan of the Hundred Faces to open their box.

"Ding! Congratulations to group member Hassan of the Hundred Faces for obtaining 'Magic Dress - Bukur-Shu'!"

"This is a gift from the First Master!"

Bukur-Shu is King Hassan's Valentine's Day return gift; it has no special effects, other than being able to soothe the spirit.

Upon learning that this was a gift from King Hassan, Hassan of the Hundred Faces immediately put it down in excitement and bowed respectfully.

To the Hassans, King Hassan is a god-like existence, and they are his loyal believers.

How could a believer not be excited to receive a gift from their god?

Next, only the First Emperor's silver treasure chest remained to be opened.

"Ding! Congratulations to group member the First Emperor for obtaining 'Noble Phantasm - Universe Ring'!"

"A Noble Phantasm!"

Seeing that the First Emperor had actually pulled a Noble Phantasm, the Conqueror was immediately very envious.

After all that, the First Emperor had the best luck among them.

"The Universe Ring, so it is that fellow's Noble Phantasm."

Looking at the object in his hand, which resembled a bracelet, the First Emperor felt a sense of nostalgia.

The Universe Ring is an item well-known to the Chinese people, a treasure of the Third Prince Nezha from mythology.

And Nezha also shares a history with the First Emperor.

Ying Zheng once recovered the remains of an android created by Taiyi Taiyi Zhenren from the ruins of the Yin Dynasty, brought them back for research, obtained the technology for mechanical flesh, and used it to create Xiang Yu.

And those android remains were Nezha.

The Ying Zheng of the Lostbelt used this technology to achieve mechanical ascension and immortality, but the Ying Zheng of Pan-Human History refused to abandon his flesh and chose to pass away.

The Universe Ring possesses the ability to expand and contract freely; normally, it can be equipped on both arms as a pair of bracelets, and when used, it transforms into a ring-shaped weapon with sharp blades.

Interestingly, the Universe Ring can also be voice-controlled.

Shouting "Go!" will launch an attack on the enemy, "Stop!" will make it hover in mid-air, and "Come!" will make it return to the hand.

Once mastered, it is like controlling a semi-autonomous drone.

"Here, Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take it."

After playing with it for a moment, the First Emperor tossed the Universe Ring directly to Feng Xi.

Feng Xi: "Eh? You don't need it?"

The First Emperor: "I have no interest in using such childish things; I bestow it upon you."

With this, all the silver treasure chests had been opened.

Oh, there was also Bluebeard, but that fellow was hiding in his room and wouldn't come out, so I'll just ignore him.

The Conqueror: "Kid, there's still your golden treasure chest; open it quickly and let us see."

Several people looked at Feng Xi with great interest.

Feng Xi did not hide anything and opened the treasure chest directly.

"Ding! Congratulations to group member Host for obtaining 'Other World Random Draw Card'!"

Feng Xi's eyes lit up; he had really pulled something good this time.

The Other World Random Draw Card is the same as the reward given after the last quiz ended; it can pull items from non-Type-Moon worlds.

However, whether or not one can get something useful depends on one's own lineage.

During the quiz, because it was a reward, the system gave them exactly what they wanted most.
