C1564 Only a Fool Would Do Such a Thing
Facing Liu Lei's disbelief, the Dark Emperor Sword replied helplessly: "You don't understand, the consumption of this type of strengthening is really, really huge."
"Because the prerequisite for this strengthening process is that I have to sacrifice my own strength."
"If that wasn't the case, how could the Soldier of the Iron Living Dead have suddenly become so powerful?"
"Let me give you an example. Just tell me how much stronger I am this time, and I will return to my original form."
"If I use this enhancement again now, all my hard work during this period of time will be completely gone. I will return to a very weak state of consciousness."
"When the time comes, I won't even have the ability to talk to you anymore. Do you understand how much energy you've used up?"
Hearing the Dark Emperor Sword's words, Liu Lei frowned.
He really did not expect the consumption of such a strengthening skill to be this huge.
If it was used twice, it would be enough for the Dark Emperor Sword to be returned to its original form. Even the ability to communicate with one's consciousness would disappear.
This was truly a move that would injure the enemy one thousand times and self-destruct the enemy 800 times. Indeed, it couldn't be used carelessly.
"Thank you so much for using such a time-consuming ability for me."
"Hurry up and rest now, the magic tools inside the Storage Ring will be recovering. In the future, I will find more magic tools and materials for you to consume."
Liu Lei was slightly grateful towards Dark Emperor Sword and his tone of voice also became a lot more gentle.
He was very clear that the reason the Dark Emperor Sword were willing to use this kind of energy consumption rate was all for him.
If not for him, given the character of the Dark Emperor Sword, it would not be willing to sacrifice its own strength.
So what if more people died?
As a magical equipment, it did not care about these things.
It could be seen from how active it was in devouring magic tools and materials that it thirsted for the chance to recover from its injuries.
How many lives were not as important in its eyes as its desire.
If not for Liu Lei, the Dark Emperor Sword would not care about other people's lives.
So it was normal for Liu Lei to be grateful to the Dark Emperor Sword for doing such a thing.
"No need to thank me. This is something that a magic tool like me should do. It's just that the consumption of this ability is too great. I hope that you won't let me use it in the future."
"Unless, when the time comes, there's no other way."
"But you don't have to be disappointed. The reason why the consumption is so huge is because my current recovery rate is too low."
"When my injuries recover to a very high degree, I won't be in such a miserable state if I use this strengthening ability. I'll be able to withstand this enormous consumption of energy."
Dark Emperor Sword said while it was still hot.
Because it could feel that Liu Lei's impression of it had changed a lot.
As long as he struck while the iron was hot, as long as he was sensible, their relationship would be completely improved.
Why was it willing to consume so much strength?
Wasn't it because he wanted to improve his relationship with Liu Lei?
Now that it had achieved this goal, it felt that it was worth it.2
"Alright, I understand. Go and rest."
Liu Lei nodded his head to show that he understood.
He wasn't an idiot, he naturally knew that he couldn't use this huge amount of energy carelessly.
Otherwise, if he weakened the Dark Emperor Sword's strength, it wouldn't benefit him at all.
Even if he really had to use this ability, he would treat it as a trump card and only use it at the last moment.
Using any random magical equipment was a matter that did not benefit the user. Only a fool would do such a thing.
