Apocalypse Meltdown Chapter 151

The axe was not that bright in itself, in fact, its entire body was covered with something as black as charcoal. It was a very big axe. It was what someone would first see when they looked inside. It was as tall as a person while its width was comparable to that of an average person`s chest.

The axe emanated the aura of a wild beast as killing intent seemed to seep out from it. The most special aspect of the axe was its unusual style. It did not bend the way usual axes was, instead; it formed into a crescent-shaped, double-edged curve which glinted with sharpness.

Using the axe would be a very sophisticated art in itself. Slas.h.i.+ng alone would only display a tenth of its power.

Chu Han nearly closed his eyes, not because of the dazzlingly s.h.i.+ning handle, but of the air that the axe itself gave off. But not everyone could feel the pressure the axe gave off. It was truly something worthy of being a very famous weapon during his past incarnation.

Ye Mo quietly observed Chu Han`s response. A smile formed on the old man`s lips when he saw Chu Han get dazzled by his masterpiece. He was now sure that he found the right master of his axe.

"Can you lift it up?" Ye Mo`s voice which seemed to be mocking Chu Han sounded out.

Chu Han looked at axe in front of him. Though he would like to admit it, he did not seem to believe in it. He helplessly shook his head, "I can`t lift it."

Although he was arrogant, he still knew the extent of his abilities.

"Hahaha!" Ye Mo proudly smiled. His usually bent back also straightened. He walked ahead and pointed at a certain point of the black axe which seemed to be that of a circular disk, "It can be adjusted, do you want to try?"

Chu Han`eyes brightened as he carefully looked at the old man before him. A weapon which weight can be adjusted was a defiance of common sense. He looked at the b.u.t.tons on the axe and found that it had numbers from 1 to 10.

His eyes flashed. Chu Han pressed the b.u.t.ton with the number "2" and then tried to lift it up.

"You should adjust it to '1'". Ye Mo`s words which contained a hint of mockery sounded out.

Chu Han was unwilling as he then used all of his strength. Surprisingly, the axe did not even budge.

"Hahaha!" Ye Moe rudely laughed again as he seemed to be very happy seeing Chu Han who looked like a clown.

Ignoring the old man`s laughter, Chu Han pressed the b.u.t.ton tagged "1" and found out that he could finally raise it up. But he needed both hands. It was not surprising though, as this weapon was a two-handed weapon.

Brus.h.!.+

He waved the axe around as he became more and more accustomed to it. It was really fitting for him.

It was truly a peerless axe.

"How do you feel?" Ye Mo squatted on the ground. Unwillingness surface in his wizened eyes.

"Great!" Chu Han only said one word since it was simply too hard to describe. A good weapon like this could improve his fighting ability by leaps and bounds. The most important thing was that this was still not the limit of the axe` abilities. He still needed to discover the other functions of this peerless weapon.

"Do you know why I took twelve years to create it?" Ye Mo suddenly asked.

The fact that the axe took twelve years to be created was unbelievable, but it was well-deserved. Chu Han quietly waited for the old man`s answer.

The old geezer squatted on the ground like some old farmer. His voice was drawn out as if it spanned the ages. "One year for the blade, one year for the handle, ten years to make the adjustable b.u.t.ton. A grand total of twelve years"

An adjustable b.u.t.ton took one year?

Chu Han looked at the black axe, staring at the b.u.t.tons on the handle.

"This is the only weapon where I solely focused on making it, not doing any other project in the process. I exhausted all of my energy for this weapon." Ye Mo seemed to remind himself of the memories when he created this weapon as yearning filled his eyes. He sighed, "You are so lucky!"

"Thank you, Ye Mo." It truly came from Chu Han`s heart.

His hotbloodedness and ambitiousness had resurfaced. He wanted to be the master of his own fate.

He would miss that opportunity if he did not get this axe.

"He!" Ye Mo smiled.

Chu Han looked at the old man as he suddenly asked, "Why could the weapon`s weight be adjusted?"

"Hahaha! It`s not about the weight!" Ye Mo mysteriously smiled, "Actually, this axe might not have been this good when I first completed it. I thought that my theory was indeed wrong. But after that six-hour darkness, my theory which didn`t seem to work before the darkness was actually correct."

Chu Han`s pupils narrowed. Global Darkness?

"The earth`s magnetic field has changed and the global darkness brought a new material into earth.

That was the thing that made the axe like this." Ye Mo meaningfully smiled.

"The other weapons you made also had the same effects?" Chu Han suddenly thought about it since he only knew of one weapon with the same characteristics.

"No." Ye Mo timely said, "It is the only one out of all the weapons I made that has this special effect.

It was because of the new element I found. It was an element that didn`t exist before in this place. I didn`t know what I can do with it. I simply found it surprising so I incorporated it into the axe. I was not sure if it was even mine, I just put it into the axe."

Chu Han rapidly understood but he did not fully understand it.It looked as unbelievable as the global darkness that happened. But one thing made him more shocked than that fact, "But why does it have 10 b.u.t.tons only?"

The old man, Ye Mo, looked at Chu Han quietly as shock appeared in his eyes, "The reason for that is the new element itself. The darkness also brought about a new fluctuation in the human body and his surroundings. Resonance! A resonance is formed in between the axe and the human body once the new element was added. It could be raised when the resonance fluctuation is the same. I don't know the specifics but you can find out yourself."

The old man vaguely said but Chu Han`s heart suddenly palpitated. During his past incarntaion, the highest level of evolved humans was level ten. The axe`s b.u.t.tons also had level ten as the last level!

Was it just coincidence? Or was it because of that?

Chu Han did not say anything more as the old man bent down after standing straightly for a long time. The two men of them were so silent.

After a long time----

Ye Mo lighted a cigarette, "How about giving it a name?"

"Xiuluo." There was a low voice.

"What?" The old man said dazedly as he could not hear clearly.

Chu Han looked at the black axe as excitedly said, "Xiuluo! Monster Killer - Xiuluo."Xiuluo axe, the Monster Killer. A weapon that could slay everything in its path.
