Chapter 166 Blink Flight
“Blink Flight: Allows the user to instantly blink about 330 feet away while escaping.
*Note 1: A unique drop from Desolate Castle. After later enhancement with phantom-type energy, it became a gold-tier mobility item.”
Joanna summoned the Crimson Throne and immediately noticed something different. The couch was bigger. What used to be an armchair had turned into a wide sofa. She could even lie down on it now.
That meant Nighthowl, Alwyn, and Lucien could sit on it together.
To be honest, Joanna had once planned to get rid of the Crimson Throne. As her attributes increased, her movement speed had already surpassed it.
Its only real advantages were that it could fly, worked as transportation, and didn’t drain her stamina.
Sometimes, it also looked pretty cool.
She still liked it. Back then, she wanted to sell it because she was short on money. Now she wasn’t. Five million Starcoins was nothing to her anymore. And this was her first unique piece of gear. Of course she kept it as a souvenir.
She just didn’t expect it to evolve.
If there are more items like this in the world, Joanna thought, her eyes lighting up, couldn’t they keep upgrading forever? Exploring new dimensions really is the way to go.
Then her gaze shifted to the Phantom Wedding Gown.
“Phantom Wedding Gown (Gold-Tier):
“Soul Defense +3,300
“Spirit +1,200
“Special Abilities:
“Bond Curse: Lovers must die.
“Wraith Wedding Domain: Pulls targets into a wraith domain. One opposite-sex target becomes the groom; the rest become guests. Inside the domain, targets continuously lose lifespan or HP.
“Blood-Stained Wedding Gown: The lower the HP, the stronger the wearer becomes. Bleeding status works best.
“Note 1: The Phantom Wedding Gown is formed by the Space Alliance system compressing the world’s energy. Its power is immense, but the side effects are severe. If the user has a loved one, one of them must die, forever separated.
“Note 2: The attack power gained from the Blood-Stained Wedding Gown will fade, but the blood lost will not return. Max HP is permanently reduced.
“Note 3: If you own Space Alliance gear, the Phantom Wedding Gown can be fused into it as upgrade material, avoiding the curse while preserving value.
Both the Wraith Palanquin’s “life-drain” and the Phantom Wedding Gown’s “lovers must die” were instant-death rule abilities. Their power was terrifying.
But the cost was just as terrifying.
Joanna preferred gear without side effects. Still, she didn’t have a suitable item to fuse with the Phantom Wedding Gown. If she merged it into the Judgment Robe, what if it ruined the set bonuses?
Then a thought struck her.
The Phantom Wedding Gown was a soul item. And a transmog outfit was technically a “fake” outfit.
Could they be fused?
She acted immediately. Under her cloak, Joanna removed her pure white transmog dress and merged it with the Phantom Wedding Gown.
It worked.
“Your transmog outfit: Pure White Dress (No Rank) has been upgraded to Gold-

Tier. New name: Transmog Outfit-Blood-Stained Gown.
“Transmog Outfit-Blood-Stained Gown (Gold-Tier)
“Soul Defense 330
“Spirit +120
“Special Effect: Blood-Stained Gown: The lower your HP, the stronger you become. The effect is strongest while Bleeding. No side effects.
“Note: Special gear. Can be worn together with normal gear, but transmog attributes are only one-tenth of same-tier gear.
One-tenth was still a win. It was basically like wearing an extra piece of gear.
Those items were just too dangerous. Most normal professionals would never touch them.
But if you gave them to suicide units? The results would be devastating.
“You three each take a direction and explore,” Joanna said. “If things get dangerous, call for backup immediately. I’ll stay here and guard the area. Remember, bring back any gear you find. We’re especially hunting palanquin-type wraiths.”
Nighthowl, Alwyn, and Lucien nodded and headed off in different directions.
Joanna stayed where she was to guard the unfinished portal so the wraiths could not attack it.
Her worry was not for nothing.
As soon as Nighthowl and the others left, another group of wraiths crawled out of the wild hills. They were thin and bony. Their ribs stuck out. They moved on the ground, crawling forward. There were more than a thousand of them.
