Chapter 53 (2/2)

[Assala’s Judgement (Gauntlet Swords): Dark Enchanted Bronze grade, Upgradable.]

[Item description: A weapon blessed by Assala the Phoenix Goddess that possesses the power of judgement’s will.]

[Attack +176, Agility +23, Strength +32, Lycanthropy +1 (weapon becomes claw in Morphing), +50% Attack in Morphing]

[Level 25 required, limited to Druid-class.]

The gauntlets, to be worn on both hands had one blade apiece, and Nie Fan’s attack stat immediately leaped up a notch just by equipping it—it was his second Dark Enchanted Bronze item after all! Normal weapons wouldn’t buff a Morphed Druid, and yet these were buffing him even when he was Morph.

It could well be a divine relic for Druids below Level 60!

For close-ranged weapons, the Gauntlet Swords were quite short and was probably just seven inches. There was also purple gleam on its arched sharp edge, with guards at the hilt forged from Dark Enchanted Bronze that protected the grips, whereas the various runes inscribed all over it gave it a mysterious appearance.

Still, its shortness meant its range wasn’t wide, although it had another distinct advantage in its nimbleness and quick attack speed. Aside from the daggers that Thieves used, no other weapon could match the Gauntlet Swords in speed.

With his dual-handed weapon—the best weapon available at the moment—equipped, his preparations would be perfect after he returned to Tajit Village and swapped into a full set of Cyan Bronze equipment.

Nie Fan hence started to dash towards the village.

***

Kaz, captain of Tajit Village’s militia was standing guard to the west of the village. An NPC in his thirties, he had a robust figure resembling a steel tower and the muscles all over his body were bulging and firm. He was also in charge of selling Honor point items, which players could purchase from when their points reached certain amounts. Following the recent village defense, most players who were promoted to Second-class Citizens had purchased full sets of Copper equipment from him. Although the items he sold were almost equal to normal market prices, each were Soulbound immediately upon purchase and could not be traded.

Nie Fan walked up to him.

“Revered Brave Warrior. What do you need?”

“I want to but some equipment.” Nie Fan said.

“These are the items available for your purchase. Please select the item you desire.”

A list displaying hundreds of items immediately appeared in front of Nie Fan, most of which were grey and unavailable to him. Still, he could purchase a Level 10 Dark Enchanted Bronze equipment set, Level 20 Copper or Cyan Bronze equipment sets, Level 25 Cyan Bronze equipment sets and the like.

The one set which was best for him was naturally the Level 25 Cyan Bronze equipment set which includes gauntlets, spaulders, greaves, steel armor, a helm, boots, and a cape: a total of seven items.

Nie Fan estimated that such an equipment set wouldn’t be available without at least eighty thousand bronze coins on the market. There were few players who could afford such an astronomical price, and not to mention that the markets didn’t have full equipment sets available which would provide additional stat buffs.

On the other hand, the Cyan Bronze equipment set only cost little over nine thousand bronze coins here with each item costing slightly above one thousand apiece, which was around one-tenth of the market price and naturally quite worthwhile.

Nie Fan bought all seven items and equipped them, finally replacing his peashooters for some actual firepower and improving his armaments overall.
