The quality of the Gate of Babylon has been improved...
Nothing to say!
The effects of the Gate of Babylon remain unchanged; an increase in quality does not grant it any new abilities.
In essence, storing engraved weapons into the Gate of Babylon is itself an enhancement for the Gate of Babylon.
The more weapons within the Gate of Babylon, the greater the power when launched.
Furthermore, with a sufficient number of weapons, the Gate of Babylon can perform rapid-fire barrages or cover a wider area.
The inherent value of the Gate of Babylon lies solely in its ability to engrave weapons, or it can be directly understood as a colossal storage.
Therefore, to utilize the Gate of Babylon to the level of Gilgamesh...
Bai Ye felt that a long and arduous journey lay ahead.
Of course, the improvement in quality is undeniably good news.
However, there is also bad news.
Nine gachas in three days, three golden gacha draws designated by God Stone fragments, and not a single item suitable for the Steel Slime to consume.
This is truly unlucky; the three God Stone fragments were completely wasted.
Fortunately, that fellow Crow provided Bai Ye with enough God Stone fragments, so Bai Ye didn't feel too disheartened.
"Mr. Bai Ye!" Kamado Tanjiro stood on a hillside, suddenly turned back, and shouted loudly, interrupting Bai Ye's thoughts. He then smiled and said, "We're almost there."
Looking out into the distance from the hillside, they could see an ancient town with a "Japanese style" ahead.
In truth, rather than calling the neutral zone the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Corps, it would be more accurate to say that the neutral zone is this ancient town.
This is because, generally, ordinary chosen ones cannot enter the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Corps unless they become a Demon Slayer or possess temporary qualification as a Demon Slayer.
However, the ancient town is nameless, and due to the presence of the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, everyone simply calls this neutral area the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters.
As for the characteristic of order in the neutral zone, undoubtedly, it is the Demon Slayers of the Demon Slayer Corps who maintain it.
Kamado Tanjiro slid down the hillside and said, "In about half an hour, we'll be able to enter the town."
Bai Ye checked the time. Entering the town wasn't urgent. For Bai Ye, a more important matter was that the gacha machine's reset time was approaching again.
"Come, come, come..." Bai Ye called out to Kamado Tanjiro and the other two, "We're so close, and there's no rush anyway. Help me with something first."
Kamado Tanjiro asked curiously, "What do you need our help with, Mr. Bai Ye?"
Bai Ye threw out the gacha machine and said, "Help me draw gachas!"
Bai Ye found that his universally despised luck was basically beyond saving.
However, Bai Ye also noticed something.
It seemed that every time he asked a native to help him draw gachas, the results were quite good.
Although this matter was somewhat superstitious, as the gacha machine had no data indicating that drawing with the help of natives could increase the drop rate.
But Bai Ye felt that since he was beyond saving, he might as well believe in superstition.
Kamado Tanjiro and the other two looked at the gacha machine with curiosity; it was something beyond their comprehension.
Inosuke, even more curious, kicked the gacha machine and asked, "What is this?"
Bai Ye said, "See this knob? Just turn it a few times with some force."
Agatsuma Zenitsu grabbed the knob and turned it with force, asking, "Is it like this?"
The sound of the machine turning came from within the gacha machine, and then...
A white capsule "clunked" and dropped out of the gacha machine.
Agatsuma Zenitsu exclaimed in surprise, "Is there a person inside this box? It's throwing things out!"
Bai Ye glanced at Agatsuma Zenitsu with disdain, "What person? You unlucky fellow!"
Bai Ye immediately classified Agatsuma Zenitsu as an unlucky fellow, just like himself.
No, this guy is even more unlucky than him.
After all, the most common capsules from the gacha machine are not white, but green and blue. The probability of getting a white one ranks third, not much different from the probability of getting a black capsule.
Therefore, without extreme bad luck, it's not easy to get a plain white one on the first try.
At the same time, Bai Ye couldn't help but feel sorry for himself, gazing up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, almost shedding tears.
Could it be...
That superstition cannot save the unlucky?
At this moment, Inosuke excitedly approached the gacha machine and said, "Me, me, let me do it."
Inosuke's breathing technique was violent, and his method of turning the gacha machine was also violent; he spun it with all his might, and then...
A large area of red light suddenly bloomed.
Bai Ye's eyes immediately lit up.
A red capsule!
The heavens were indeed still looking out for him.
Snow Drinking Saber (Weapon) (Red): Legend claims it was forged from the coldest essence in the world, the residual dew left by Nuwa when mending the heavens. It is the ancestral saber of Fengshen Nie Feng's lineage. The saber is both a peerless divine weapon and the saber technique manual for the top-tier martial art, Arid Cold Art.
Effect: Six Forms of Arid Cold.
First Form: A Cold Glance.
Second Form: Frozen Three Feet.
Third Form: Red Apricots Bloom Over the Wall.
Fourth Form: Peach Blossoms Flutter.
Fifth Form: Treading Snow to Find Plums.
Sixth Form: Cold Blade, Icy Heart.
A red-quality weapon from the Wuxia world, where the saber manual and the saber are integrated. Most importantly...
This item can be engraved into the Gate of Babylon and can also be consumed by the Steel Slime.
A good thing!
As expected, superstition is useful. Agatsuma Zenitsu's white capsule was just an anomaly; the main reason is that this guy is too unlucky.
If I can reluctantly be called an African, then Agatsuma Zenitsu is an African Emperor!
Bai Ye couldn't help but rub his hands and said to Kamado Tanjiro, "You try one too."
Kamado Tanjiro smiled and nodded, slowly turning the knob, and then golden radiance emerged.
A golden capsule was not surprising.
Bai Ye had already used a God Stone fragment to designate a golden gacha draw. The important thing was what Kamado Tanjiro would draw.
Then...
When Kamado Tanjiro opened the golden capsule, Bai Ye instantly gasped.
Not a weapon, but...
