That means, if Downfall of Castle and Country doesn't account for resistance, it should have at least three days of control time, right? And if resistance is accounted for, it could control a target for about a month?
If used on natives, it might be even longer. After all, when the Slane Theocracy used this item against me, they dared to directly absorb me to become their powerful enforcer.
If calculated by time, Downfall of Castle and Country must have been in the Slane Theocracy's hands for at least several hundred years. In such a long time, those people must have used Downfall of Castle and Country many times, and they must have thoroughly understood its equipment characteristics.
Since they dared to be so bold as to let me, a guy of unknown origin, be on equal footing with their ace, Zesshi Zetsumei, this indicates that the control time of Downfall of Castle and Country on natives is definitely more than a month.
"By the way, Bai Xia, I noticed you don't have a weapon? I didn't see you holding a staff or anything when you were fighting the dragon just now." Arute now noticed Ellie, who had always been empty-handed.
"Yes... uh... I did have one. I was holding it while I was sleeping, but it disappeared when I transmigrated." Ellie originally wanted to say yes, but then suddenly remembered that her Ken-Mikazuchi Final Style had been thrown out as a final blow, and she didn't know if it had blown off the Platinum Dragon Lord's dog head, or rather, dragon head.
So now she was empty-handed, but it didn't matter... For her current profession as a Healer, using Ken-Mikazuchi Final Style or not was the same. But what about after this point in time? And what about the Eight Greed Kings incident later? Not having a powerful weapon in hand was indeed a problem.
"Is that so? I don't have any weapons that a Healer can use either... Livia-san, Sir Xia Na, you are both magic-type professions. Many of your professions' equipment are interchangeable with a Healer's, right? Do you have any unused equipment you can give to Bai Xia?" Arute naturally turned his gaze to the two of them.
The two of them had no complaints and once again turned to rummage through their spatial bags. Livia-san spoke first.
"I still have some spare equipment, but I don't know if Bai Xia's level can use it." Livia-san took out many different kinds of staffs with a rustle.
"Well... to be honest, I'm only level one." Ellie said softly, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"This... there's nothing we can do. Fortunately, World-Class Items don't have equipment level restrictions..." Livia-san, upon hearing Ellie's level, could only helplessly put away the weapons she had taken out. These weapons were not something a level one could equip.
Everyone else also showed varying degrees of troubled expressions. A level one companion? Isn't this just asking for trouble?
The thought of having to bring a companion who could be instantly killed by a dragon was overwhelming!
Alright, alright! I know you're all max-level gods, you're amazing, okay! Ellie was quite displeased by this reaction. It wasn't her choice to be like this; she wanted to level up too, but the problem was she couldn't!
"Then how about this?" Sir Xia Na calmly took out an item and handed it to Ellie. Ellie was speechless at the sight of it. Although she maintained her original expression on the surface, she was already quite annoyed inside.
A wooden stick? What the hell is this! Are they looking down on me! This was Ellie's true thought.
"Ah... a beginner's wooden stick. By the way, Sir Xia Na, why do you still keep such a beginner's item? Isn't this something you can just throw away as soon as you get it?" The uncle said from the side.
That's right... what Sir Xia Na handed to Ellie was a wooden stick, thick at the top and thin at the bottom, shaped very much like a chicken leg used for smashing people, and it was also especially short... estimated to be about 30-40 centimeters long. What could such a thing be used for? And the uncle just said it, it's something beginners get when they start, hey!!
Seeing this mocking wooden stick, Ellie was practically going crazy.
"It's not that I wanted to keep it... I inexplicably got this item as a drop from an opponent when I was doing outdoor PVP with someone." Sir Xia Na replied indifferently.
"I didn't expect Sir Xia Na, you're still such a nasty person. After defeating someone in PVP, you still keep the spoils of their defeat?" The uncle teased Sir Xia Na playfully.
"I don't have such a bad taste. I don't know when this stick got into my bag. I wanted to throw it away at the time, but this equipment had no discard or destroy option in the game, so I could only keep it with me." Sir Xia Na said with a slightly helpless tone.
"Then... thank you." Ellie took the wooden stick, feeling all sorts of displeasure, but there was nothing she could do. Since she was only level one, even with the ring, she was only level two, and she had to hide her true strength in front of them. Although it was very annoying, for now, she could only bite the bullet and continue to act like a clueless beginner.
"It's good to have it, it's better than nothing... The level doesn't matter. We are all companions on the same boat now, right? Since we still have the game world system restrictions in this world, then Bai Xia should also be able to continue to improve her level!" Arute looked at everyone and said seriously.
Ellie understood... Arute's words were not actually for Ellie to hear, but for the others. He wanted to remind them that they were all in the same predicament now, and Ellie had the most crucial insurance tool, the resurrection short staff, and was also the only one who knew healing magic.
After Ellie took the wooden stick, she put it and Downfall of Castle and Country into her spatial bag. There was nothing she could do; out of consideration for their good intentions, she had to take it!
This thing is actually that magical? It can't be discarded or destroyed? Ellie did try to destroy it when she put the stick into her spatial bag, and nothing happened. It truly couldn't be destroyed.
Such a strange item, according to RPG game settings, only super powerful equipment or special plot items have the privilege of not being able to be discarded or destroyed, right?
Could this wooden stick have been a special plot item used in the game Yggdrasil?
Well! Never mind it. Anyway, I'll just take it out to put on a show in the future. Anyway, in front of these max-level players, I, a level two, probably won't need to make a move.
At that time, I'll just slack off, add some health, and occasionally shout "666" and that'll be fine.
"Then, you must have leveled up after taking down so many dragons, right?" The ninja, Arashi, looked at Ellie and asked curiously.
Uh... Ellie was suddenly a bit awkward.
