The mechanical voice sounded and excitement filled Ed’s heart.
The system might be late, but at least he had something.
“System, what functions do you have?” Ed asked the system.
He had thought the system’s name was cool, but if the functions were useless, it would be futile.
[ This is the check-in system. ]
[ There are daily check-ins, weekly check-ins, monthly check-ins, and yearly check-ins. Corresponding rewards for different check-in periods may vary. ]
[ Rewards are divided by quality. Quality ranks from lowest to highest as such: Inferior, Darksteel, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, Brilliant, Legendary, and Mythical. ]
[ Each quality pertains to differing color divisions. Color divisions rank from lowest to highest as such: White, Black, Cyan, Silver, Yellow, Red, Blue, Gold, and Iridescent. ]
[ The higher the quality of an item, the greater its attributes. ]
When the system was done speaking, Ed slightly understood the nature of the system he had awakened.
To put it simply, as long as he signed in, he would be able to obtain items, but they would be obtained at random. Everything would be dependent on his own luck.
“Sign in.”
Ed was anxious to see what the quality of his first sign-in reward would be. His luck had always been good, it wouldn’t be wrong to claim that he was a generally lucky person.
[ Ding! Daily check-in successful. ]
A transparent panel appeared in Ed’s mind. On it was a turntable divided into nine parts, corresponding to the nine different qualities.
The space occupied by each of the nine sections was exactly the same. It seemed to be fair.
Before long, the needle at the center of the turntable began to rotate.
As it did, Ed felt his breathing become rapid.
After a few seconds, the needle finally stopped, landing in the Diamond-quality column!
[ Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Diamond-quality axe! ]
Ed was so excited that he struggled to calm down for a long time.
Diamond-quality!
He had initially figured that he’d be pretty fortunate to receive a gold-quality item. He had not expected at all to get a Diamond-quality item.
Furthermore, it was a logging axe!
Ed could not wait to see the appearance and attributes of this axe.
He suddenly felt something.
A red dot had emerged in his palm, immediately turning into a blinding red light. The beam was so piercing that Ed could not open his eyes.
When he opened his eyes again, the red light had disappeared. In its place was an axe with fine lines carved into it.
As he lifted it in his hands, the first thing he noticed was that it felt cold to the touch.
He waved it around, swinging a few times.
It didn’t feel too heavy, its weight just right for Ed’s use.
Information about the axe appeared in his mind.
[ Diamond Axe ]
[ Attack power: 1.5 million ]
[ Range: 15 meters ]
[ Forging level: 0]
[ Additional attributes: Luck 10, Flames of Hell (Freely activatable by the host)]
[ Description: An extremely sharp axe. Trees below Diamond-quality will be cut down with just one swing. ]
[ Luck: wood will not be the only obtainable resource from cutting down trees. ]
[ Flames of Hell: The power of the Flames of Hell. Trees cut down by this axe will never grow back. ]
Ed shivered as he read this terrifying attribute.
He looked back at the stone axe on the ground. Its attack power was only 1.5.
It was a million times weaker.
What devastating power!
Of course, what pleased Ed even more was the Flames of Hell attribute. The trees he cut down would never grow back. Even the roots of the trees would be destroyed!
This meant that he would not have to worry about the strange moonlight revitalizing the trees that he cut down in the future.
The corners of Ed’s mouth lifted up slightly as he dwelled on the thought. A glint of sunlight caught on his body.
Now that he had this Diamond-quality axe, the stone axe on the ground evidently no longer deserved his attention. Picking it up, he threw it into a quiet corner.
It was simply an eyesore.
Ed looked around, observing the surroundings of the small wooden house. Previously, he had been busy cutting down trees and had not paid attention to it.
Now that he had such a divine artifact, the concern of cutting down the trees was resolved.
The forest was eerily quiet.
Leaves hung quietly still on the trees. There was no wind here, not even the slightest breeze.
There was no sound, save for Ed’s raspy breathing.
The wooden house was not big. Ed guessed that at most, it could accommodate two people.
There was nothing else worth noting.
The only thing unique was this endless forest.
Each tree grew to about six meters tall, their branches as thick as an adult’s arm, intersecting with each other up in the canopy.
The environment gave an inexplicable sense of oppression, making Ed very uncomfortable.
Using his mind, he opened the chat interface.
“What the hell is this place? The branches are almost as thick as my arm.”
“This stone axe is a joke. After chopping for so long, I’ve only managed to cut a little bit into a tree.”
“How are you all doing? I’ve been chopping for so long, and my hands are cramping. I still haven’t cut down a single tree.”
“I’m so hungry from all the chopping.”
Ed closed the chat interface.
It seemed that it was really as the ancient voice had said. Everyone had the same starting point.
Their initial tools were a worn-out cart, that worn-out stone axe, and a small wooden house.
He was the only one who had somehow awakened a system, obtaining a Diamond-quality, heaven-defying axe.
In other words, Ed was already far ahead of these people.
The sun slowly waned, leaving Ed with little time left.
Who knew what changes would occur in this endless forest as the sky turned dark, letting the strange moonlight through?
With this thought in mind, Ed raised his axe as he walked toward the nearby trees.
To be honest, he had also wanted to see how powerful this Diamond-quality weapon really was.
Just the thought of it had made him excited.
Ed stood before the trees, taking a deep breath.
He raised the axe above his head.
Swoosh!
A red light, no less than ten meters long, was released.
As Ed stood stunned, he could clearly feel a sharp aura.
The ray of light had completely enveloped the ten trees in front of him. Their initially imposing, thick trunks had crumpled like paper. They could not withstand even a single blow and had all been cut in half!
Ten trunks crashed directly onto the ground before crumbling into specks of light and disappearing.
Ed had not expected that with just a light swing, ten trees would be gone, just like that.
At the same time, a voice sounded in his head.
