After admiring his handiwork for a moment, he set it aside and turned his attention to the second weapon, a spear.
Like it or not, his black-rank rod was no longer as powerful as it once was.
As much as he loved the idea of switching weapons for versatility, the time had come to discard it. The battle against the second-realm ape had drained one of its explosive charges, halving its durability and attack power. Worse still, the weapon had already been wearing down long before that encounter.
One more explosion and it would be gone for good. He needed a replacement.
And for this spear, he had a plan.
First, he retrieved the hinges of the grasshoppers. The green hue would add a distinct aesthetic to the weapon, making it blend seamlessly with his armor. For the spear's tip, he chose the tooth of a claw-toothed tiger.
