Chapter 1144: A Special Gift (Part 1)
When Gary heard the word weapon, what immediately came to his mind were things like a sword or what the Anti-Altered used, maybe even the axes that Damion had used back then. It was the only thing in his position that made sense.
For powerful weapons made from ancient beasts, things like Olivia's whip. However, Gary wasn't exactly the type to use weapons either. He always saw himself much more of a fighter like Kirk.
He followed in his footsteps, using his hands and fists like many in the AFC, and he felt like his Werewolf form suited his fighting style. If there was one train of thought that went against this, though, it was the recent events that had occurred.
It was quite possible that the only reason why Gary had managed to win the fight against Harvor was due to the special weapon that he used. That weapon, even in Gary's hand, he could feel energized.
With how much was at stake, and the opponents they were going against, maybe using whatever they could take was for the best. It wasn't as if Gary was going to deny such a gift either.
The Dark Guild had wandered off to their vehicle and had returned with three fairly large items wrapped around in a special soft material cloth. As they entered, they then laid out the three pieces of items on the round table in front of them.
Unlike before, where the crowd was mostly ignoring what was happening, now a new crowd had drawn as they were curious about just what was under the pieces of cloth.
"Here, we have provided some of our finest weapons for you to choose from. Unfortunately, they are quite valuable, so we can only give you one," Marcus explained. "But feel free to choose whatever it is you wish."
Gary was ready, and he had no idea what to expect, but he could see Kai's eyes almost sparkling and wondered if it was better if he chose the items instead.
The three pieces of cloth were revealed, and with it, three weapons laid out on the table. As they shone with their glamour, many of the guests even let out quite the gasp as they saw them.
Even though they were just simple weapons, there was a strange power radiating from them, along with the design in them. Strange parts of beings that shone colors they had never seen before, like new pieces of marble right before their eyes.
"Ermmm, I believe I should go through each of the items to give you an idea," Marcus said, clearing his throat and moving in front of the first item.
"This here is the Howling Bow," Marcus declared.
It was quite the name for the bow, and Gary and Kai wondered if it was purposely named that way due to their Altered appearances.
Maybe it was just a name, or the Dark Guild had some way to make these weapons and had presented them as such.
The Howling Bow was crafted with what looked like dark polished wood. It had an ancient feeling to it.
The bow's limbs were curved like a crescent moon, and there were special engravings on the surface. The grip was wrapped in a dark grey leather, although it looked like an animal that didn't come from this world.
Finally, there was a small blue glowing gem in the bow itself.
When Gary looked at the weapon long enough, a ding from his system had appeared.
[A Demi-god tier beast weapon] [Howling Bow is a weapon belonging to the Werewolves, and special effects are granted when used with a Werewolf.]
Description: A mystical bow that channels the werewolf's inner howl into sonic attacks. Werewolf Form Effect: Arrows can transform into howling, spectral wolves that pursue targets and explode on impact. Human Form Effect: Grants enhanced precision and imbues arrows with a silencing effect.
'What the… there are weapons out there that are just for Werewolves to be used, but how… and how does the Dark Guild even know about this?'
'I better not make a big deal about it right now and talk to Kai about what is going on and happening.'
'If I put all of that to the side for a moment, these effects, they're amazing.'
"It's a powerful weapon if in the right hands," Marcus said as he picked it up, to allow Gary as well as the others around to have a better look at the item itself.
"Right," Gary answered.
He thought about it for a while, and although the effects of the weapon were great, what could he even do with a bow?
It was surely something he would have to learn to use, and it was so different to his way of fighting currently, he imagined it would be much more of a deterrent than a plus for him.
Still, just because he accepted an item didn't mean he himself had to use it, and he could always pass it to one of the others.
When he thought about it, though, even currently there seemed to be no one that could really use the item, at least not out of the Werewolves that were in the pack.
'Maybe one of the ones that Midwak turned? But I'm not sure giving those close to him more power would be a good idea.'
"Let's move on, shall we? Maybe there will be something else that is more to your liking as we move further."
"Right," Gary answered again.
Just based on the first weapon alone, Gary couldn't wait to see what was in store because there was something else he was curious about.
When looking at the weapons, it came up with some type of tier rank, calling it a Demi-god tier.
It sounded powerful, especially from the gaming terms that Gary was used to.
Out of the three items, two of them stated they were Demi-god tier, while the last one… it said the word Demon Tier.
