The quality of the Gate of Babylon's enhancement...
Nothing to say!
The effects of the Gate of Babylon remain unchanged; its quality upgrade does not grant it any new abilities.
Essentially, storing engraved weapons within the Gate of Babylon constitutes an enhancement for it.
The more weapons within the Gate of Babylon, the greater the power upon their release.
Furthermore, with a sufficient number of weapons, the Gate of Babylon can unleash rapid volleys or cover a wider area.
The value of the Gate of Babylon itself lies in its weapon engraving capability, or it can be directly understood as a colossal storage.
Therefore, to utilize the Gate of Babylon to the level of Gilgamesh...
Bai Ye felt he had a long and arduous journey ahead.
Of course, the quality enhancement is undeniably good news.
However, there is also bad news.
Nine gacha pulls in three days, with three designated gold gacha pulls using God Stone fragments, yet not a single item suitable for the Steel Slime to consume was obtained.
This was truly an unfortunate waste of three God Stone fragments.
Fortunately, that brat Urokodaki provided Bai Ye with an abundance of God Stone fragments, so he didn't feel too disheartened.
"Mr. Bai Ye!" Kamado Tanjiro stood on a hillside, suddenly turned back, and shouted loudly, interrupting Bai Ye's thoughts. He smiled and said, "We're almost there."
Standing on the hillside and gazing into the distance, one could see an ancient town with a "Japanese style" ahead.
In truth, the neutral zone could be considered the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Corps, or rather, this ancient town should be the neutral zone.
This is because ordinary chosen ones cannot enter the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Corps unless they become a Demon Slayer, or possess temporary qualifications as one.
However, the ancient town was nameless, and due to the presence of the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, everyone directly referred to this neutral zone as the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters.
As for the order maintenance in the neutral zone, it was undoubtedly handled by the Demon Slayers.
Kamado Tanjiro slid down the hillside and said, "In about half an hour, we'll be able to enter the town."
Bai Ye checked the time. Entering the town was not urgent. For Bai Ye, a more important matter was that the gacha machine's reset time was approaching again.
"Come, come, come..." Bai Ye called out to Kamado Tanjiro and the other two, "We're so close, and there's no rush anyway. Help me out first."
Kamado Tanjiro asked curiously, "What do you need our help with, Mr. Bai Ye?"
Bai Ye threw out the gacha machine and said, "Help me pull the gacha!"
Bai Ye found his notoriously bad luck to be virtually hopeless.
However, Bai Ye also discovered something.
It seemed that every time he asked a native to help him pull the gacha, the results were quite good.
Although this was a bit of a superstition, as the gacha machine had no data indicating that relying on natives to pull the gacha could increase the drop rate, Bai Ye felt that since he was beyond saving, he might as well trust in superstition.
Kamado Tanjiro and the other two looked at the gacha machine curiously; it was something beyond their understanding.
Inosuke even kicked the gacha machine out of curiosity and asked, "What is this?"
Bai Ye said, "See this knob? Just turn it a few times with some force."
Agatsuma Zenitsu grabbed the knob and turned it with force, asking, "Like this?"
A mechanical whirring sound came from the gacha machine, and then...
A white capsule landed with a "clack" from the machine.
Agatsuma Zenitsu exclaimed in surprise, "Is there a person inside this box? It's throwing things out!"
Bai Ye looked at Agatsuma Zenitsu with disdain. What person? What a jinx!
Bai Ye immediately classified Agatsuma Zenitsu as a jinx, just like himself.
No, this guy was even more unlucky than himself.
After all, the most common capsules from the gacha machine were not white, but green and blue. The probability of getting white was third, not much different from the probability of getting black capsules.
Therefore, without extreme bad luck, it was not easy to get a plain white one.
At the same time, Bai Ye couldn't help but feel sorrowful for himself, raising his head to the sky at a 45-degree angle, almost shedding tears.
Could it be...
Superstition cannot save the unlucky?
At this moment, Inosuke excitedly approached the gacha machine and said, "Let me, let me, let me do it!"
Inosuke's breathing technique was violent, and his method of turning the gacha machine was also violent. He turned it with all his might, and then...
A burst of red light suddenly bloomed.
Bai Ye's eyes immediately lit up.
A red capsule!
Heaven truly favored him after all.
Snow Drinking Saber (Weapon) (Red): Legend says it was forged from the supreme cold substance left by Nuwa when she mended the heavens, the cold dew. It is the family heirloom saber of Fengshen Nie Feng. The saber is both a peerless good weapon and the saber manual for the first-class martial art, Arrogant Cold Art.
Effect: Six Forms of Arrogant Cold.
First Form: A Cold Glance.
Second Form: Ice Sealing Three Feet.
Third Form: Red Apricots Appearing from the Wall.
Fourth Form: Peach Blossoms Blooming.
Fifth Form: Treading Snow in Search of Plums.
Sixth Form: Cold Blade, Icy Heart.
A red-quality weapon from a Wuxia world. The saber manual and the saber are integrated. Most importantly...
This item can be engraved into the Gate of Babylon and can also be devoured by the Steel Slime.
A good item!
As expected, superstition is useful. Agatsuma Zenitsu's white capsule was just an anomaly; the main reason was that this guy was too unlucky.
If Bai Ye could be reluctantly called an African, then Agatsuma Zenitsu was an African chieftain!
Bai Ye couldn't help but rub his hands and said to Kamado Tanjiro, "You try one too."
Kamado Tanjiro nodded with a smile, slowly turned the knob, and then golden brilliance emerged.
A golden capsule was not surprising.
Bai Ye had already used a God Stone fragment to designate a gold capsule pull. What was important was what Kamado Tanjiro would get.
Then...
When Kamado Tanjiro opened the golden capsule, Bai Ye gasped in shock.
It wasn't a weapon, but...

...
It wasn't a weapon, but...
It was a Devil Fruit!
