Chapter 45 - 45, Special Item_l



(The latter half of the previous chapter has been revised, those who read it on October 11 might want to go through it again.)

An item that comes with healing abilities.

This one belongs to the same type as his magic wand, capable of releasing skills from the apparatus.

The effect of ordinary healing potions may not be significant to high-level professionals, but they are more than enough for them at this level.

Last time he was injured, he took only a small amount of healing potions, and the effect was excellent.

Wu Heng leaned forward to examine it closely.

[Natural Bracelet of Oak Branch]

(Description: The bracelet grants the user the ability to ‘heal’ twice.)

The system also displays a hint on their side.

Indistinguishable from the functionality explained by Autruck, but it’s not as detailed.

But then… if you get hurt, you can drink a health potion, not necessarily using the reward’s opportunity for this one.

Seeing that the two of them didn’t say anything, Autruck continued introducing the others.

“The second one is the Flame Stone Gauntlet, which can generate an explosive effect when you punch, but it has a clear flaw: it could easily hurt your own fingers.”

Can easily hurt your fingers?

Now, who designed this ‘smart’ equipment?

Autruck didn’t even bother to look at their expressions. He continued, “Next is the Hunting Ring, which can increase your precision.”

The third object is a ring that appears to be made from polished bone.

[Hunting Ring]

(Description: The ring bestows the user with an accurate ‘Lock Target’ ability.)

Autruck then picked up the fourth item.

It’s a Plague Doctor Mask made of black leather, similar to those worn by medieval doctors, with a long beak and two round glasses at the eye positions.

“This is a special item called Plague Doctor Mask. It can filter out most of the toxic gases, but it also has a drawback: wearing the mask might get you infected directly with a new virus. Those who have low body constitution should not choose this one.”

WTF, what kind of jargon?

A poisonous gas mask?

[Plague Doctor Mask (Special Item)]

[Effect: When worn, most air-borne toxins can be filtered out. If the physical constitution is below 20, there is a chance of infection with viruses or plagues.] (Description: A gas mask retaining an old poison.)

“Captain, what is a ‘special item’?”

Autruck, who was about to introduce the next item, stopped and answered, “A magic item is an object with magic engraved on it. It can allow the user to cast it while a ‘special item’ is a product formed under special conditions or environments. They can also carry some special effects, but often have some negative impacts.”

In other words, magic items are artificially made, while special items naturally form in unique environments.

Both can handover unique effects, but the formation of special items is not controllable and often come with some negative impacts.

The Plague Doctor Mask in front of them, its negative effect is, if your physique isn’t up for it, the mask could directly infect you before the outside toxins do.

After contemplating, Autruck added, “The effects of special items are tough to replicate, and according to their value, special items are usually priced higher in the market. Many people collect them as collector’s items.”

“Understood.”

But Wu Heng still wasn’t interested in this mask.

Gas masks are mass-produced items in the modern world too.

He might not be able to acquire the military-grade ones, but finding a regular one shouldn’t be too hard.

Plus, he hasn’t come across any toxins or the like yet.

Therefore, it doesn’t hold much value to Wu Heng.

Next, Autruck introduced the remaining few items, all of which possess some unique effects, but the ‘special item’ is the mask only.

After they courteously offered to each other.

Autruck chose a piece of armour to enhance his defense, Wu Heng chose the ‘Hunting Ring’, and Cavina picked the sole special item ‘Plague Doctor Mask’. She probably didn’t find anything suitable for herself either, so might as well take the most expensive one.

When the time comes, she can sell it, and purchase a useful item for herself.

Having chosen their items, all three seemed satisfied.

Only the newly-joined Yuli was watching the three of them choose items while munching on potato chips.

She didn’t speak, just kept crunching away.

Autruck returned the remaining items that weren’t chosen.

Once he came back, he sat down in his seat.

Wu Heng then spoke up again, asking, “Captain, is there any hope for what I mentioned earlier?”

Yuli, who was tilting her head with a look of disdain, stopped her snacking to listen.

Autruck knew what Wu Heng was asking and continued, “There’s no conclusion right now. Let’s wait a few more days and see.”

“Oh!” Wu Heng thought for a moment, then asked again, “Captain, how should we usually deal with the ghost we met in the Mining Village?”

The others all turned to look at him at the same time.

It’s as if their stares were saying, ‘You’re a Necromancer asking others how to deal with ghosts?’

“Eh, just making conversation, gaining some insight.”

Cavina was the first to speak, “Energy generated by Magic spells can affect souls.”

As a ghost can pass through walls, most physical attacks are ineffective against them.

Magic tends to be more effective.

Autruck also added, “Necromancers tend to use ghosts as spiritual servants. It’s generally very difficult to form one by oneself.”

At this point, Autruck paused momentarily before adding, “To slaughter lives and turn them into souls is considered a serious offense in any kingdom or organization.”

“Ah, I know. I was just reminded of the thing at the Mining Village and thought I’d ask.” Wu Heng poured himself a cup of tea and continued asking, “I want to buy some Skill Books and equipment. Other than exchanging them for completing tasks, are there other methods?”

“There aren’t many ways. The association does not allow the purchase of rewards with money. It would undermine the motivation of others to undertake tasks.” After thinking for a moment, Autruck continued, “If needed, you can apply to the association or post a purchase request to see if anyone has anything to exchange.”

Posting a purchase request was indeed an option, but he didn’t even know what he wanted to buy for now.

Afterward, they continued to discuss team matters.

Currently, their team consisted of four members. Once Autruck and Cavina’s injuries healed a bit, they planned to take on some regular tasks to earn money and also to better coordinate as a team.

Earning money didn’t appeal to Wu Heng, who had just plundered a gold store,

but he would definitely participate in team activities.

After all, the team’s atmosphere seemed quite good at the moment.

After leaving Association, Wu Heng went straight back to his dwelling place.

After dinner, just as he was about to swallow the Corpse Core,

Knock knock!

The sudden knocking on the door interrupted him.

Followed by a girl’s voice saying, “Wu Heng, are you home? My aunt is looking for you.”

Wu Heng opened the door to see Yuli standing there with her arms folded.

He had just met this little girl today, and now she was showing up at his house.

“Who’s your aunt?”

“Of course, it’s the vice-executive.” Yuli seemed rather proud of this fact.

Ah, Slyther?

No wonder their hair colors are the same.

Damn, this little girl got in the back door.

No wonder she seemed dissatisfied and disgruntled when she spoke.

“The vice-executive is looking for me?”

“Yes, she’s waiting outside.” Yuli shared.

Wu Heng thought for a moment, then went back to his room to grab his things, brought Basen along, and left.

They got around the crowded area and onto the main road.

Upon which, they saw a carriage waiting there.

He got into the carriage and saw the mature and sexy Slyther sitting across from him.

Before Wu Heng could ask anything, Slyther knocked on the carriage wall, “Let’s go!”

Slowly, the carriage moved and headed towards the west of the city..
