"If I remember correctly, the Staff shouldn't break, right?"

Ryen nodded.

"That's right. It only consumes energy. Once it runs out, you can just replenish it."

"A true divine artifact indeed. But I imagine it's extremely difficult to obtain… Let's not aim too high for now," Zhongli said, shaking his head. He continued,

"What about the others?"

Ryen began counting on his fingers:

"There's the Fiery Sword with built-in fire attacks, the Ice Sword and Ice Bow that freeze enemies on hit, the Ender Bow that swaps positions, and the Tracking Bow that locks onto targets…"

"There's also the Minotaur Axe which deals devastating damage—almost one-hit kills anyone—and the Knight's Sword and Knight's Axe, which deal extra damage to armored foes…"

"Almost all of these can be crafted manually."

"And aside from weapons, there are a lot of powerful armor sets too."

"There's the Naga Armor Set with built-in fire protection, and the Yeti Armor Set that freezes attackers when you're hit."

"These armor sets offer effects far beyond what we get from conventionally enchanted diamond gear."

Everyone clicked their tongues in astonishment.

From what they had just heard about the weapons and armor, it was clear that these could raise everyone's strength by several levels.

No wonder Ryen had said that danger and opportunity coexisted.

If handled properly, the Twilight Forest could truly be the greatest treasure trove.

"Besides that, there are also some tools that I must emphasize to you."

With a thought, Ryen opened up the system's crafting guide for the Twilight Forest.

"First is the Cube of Annihilation…"

Ryen paused, then said solemnly:

"There's only one way to describe the Cube of Annihilation… It is the void—the poetic end of the world."

"A cube capable of destroying the entire world!"

"Whether it's bedrock or obsidian… nearly every block in existence, the Cube of Annihilation can destroy."

"At the same time, it inflicts terrifying damage to any life in its path. So, unless absolutely necessary, this item must never appear."

Ningguang frowned slightly.

"The Charm of Life—its effect is similar to the Totem of Undying, though I imagine it's even better."

"Magic Beans—originally used to reach the Cloudtop Cottage. When planted in fertile soil, they instantly grow into a sky-reaching beanstalk, 167 blocks tall."

"Lamp of Cinders—creates a massive area of harmless flames. In Teyvat, this likely translates to widespread application of a Pyro status effect."

"These are just some items that need extra attention. Besides them, there are a few more tools, which I'll introduce after we get our hands on them."

"Correspondingly, the End has more treasures—but also more monsters. Apart from the eleven powerful types, there are plenty of newly spawned creatures."

"For example—Goblins, Knight Phantoms, Winter Wolves, Goblin Knights, and so on. Therefore, in the early stages of exploring the Twilight Forest, we should avoid letting the Qianyan Army enter."

"For them, the danger level is just too high. Even we will need to proceed very cautiously. Once we've made progress, then they can move in to harvest resources."

"Also, due to the size of the portal, dragons can't enter either. So we'll have to go in ourselves."

As he spoke, Ryen paused, then continued softly:

"There are not just creatures and weapons—many plants also have special effects."

"For example, the Tree of Time—once grown, it can accelerate the flow of time within a certain radius. As for how exactly to use that… well, you can think about it yourselves."

"It surely can't be used just to speed up crop growth, right?"

Hearing this, Venti was deeply shocked.

"It can even affect time? This new mod… how is it so absurd?"

Ryen shrugged.

"It's definitely a bizarre mod."

"But the stranger it is, the more it's worth exploring. There are also many adventurer journals in there—we need to collect those too."

"Who knows, maybe we'll discover something amazing through them."

Everyone remained silent, then slowly nodded.

The revelations today were already overwhelming, and the number of tasks ahead was enormous.

For a moment, they didn't even know what kind of expression to make in response to Ryen.

"Oh right—there's one more important piece of information, also from the Twilight Forest."

Ryen clapped his hands lightly and said:

"With the Twilight Forest mod loaded, three new enchantments have been added."

"Fiery Aura, Chill Aura, and Destruction."
