Chapter 184: Amber Magatama

After Zhuang Yun returned to the city-state, he saw an email from Lu Jiu, inviting him to go out of the city together the next day.

They had a good harvest today and encountered more than a dozen waves of wild monsters. Among them, Yong Lin was considered the main force besides him. This guy was really good.

So, the temporary team decided to have dinner together, but Zhuang Yun declined the invitation.

"As you know, I have to go home to prepare dinner for my daughter, so I won't be able to attend the dinner party with you."

The others expressed understanding and then looked at Yong Lin.

The boy doesn't like crowded places and prefers to be alone.

Someone noticed his embarrassment and kindly asked, "We have to drink when we go. Do you drink, Yong Lin?"

This means that Yong Lin can choose not to go if he doesn't want to drink, which is a step down.

The young man shook his head quickly and said, "I don't know how to drink, so I won't go with you."

Everyone just patted him on the shoulder. He was not familiar with them and was introverted. It was understandable that he didn't want to go. "It's okay, I'll treat you next time with something else."

Seeing that the people in the temporary team had provided Yong Lin with a valid explanation, Zhuang Yun decided not to say anything further, and everyone went home.

After returning home, Zhuang Yun sent an email to Lu Jiu, discussing Yong Lin's performance today.

Lu Jiu received an email from Zhuang Yun at the city lord's palace. When she saw the content, she raised her eyebrows and said, "I can't believe it, that young boy Yong Lin's weapon is a whip."

She copied the email and sent it to Shen Jufeng.

All in all, Zhuang Yun felt that this young man was quite strong. Although his attack method was unique, he inflicted sufficient damage. If he were able to join the team, he would be able to provide quick support to his teammates, just like Lu Jiu.

Seeing Zhuang Yun's compliment, Lu Jiu believed that this was not just a mere favor.

Shen Jufeng's right index finger brushed across his thin lips. "It seems that I may be able to collaborate with Yong Lin if given the opportunity. I'm very curious about how he uses a whip."

Lu Jiu was even more curious, "This is the first time I've seen someone who can use a whip. We must cooperate. By the way, are whips sold in shops in the city?"

Why didn't she have any impression?

Shen Jufeng glanced casually to the side and remarked, "There are various types of weapons available, yet you seem to be solely interested in bows."

Every time, she asked the store manager to make custom weapons for her and didn't pay much attention to other types.

Lu Jiu chuckled, "My new bow has been made. Where is your sword?"

The speed of customizing their weapons has never been fast, and she was eagerly anticipating the arrival of the new weapons.

Just as she was talking, Shen Jufeng received a message: "I just received an email saying it's ready. Let's go together."

Lu Jiu allowed him to use the teleportation channel, and they instantly transferred to the forging shop. The NPC was not surprised by this and simply handed over the prepared items.

"Your bow." The pure white bow was handed to Lu Jiu. Although it was also made from the bones of wild monsters, its shape was completely different from that of the simple Po Yuan Bow. This one looked lighter and more graceful.

Lu Jiu picked up the bow, immediately assessing its weight in her hand, and then nodded with satisfaction. "It's remarkably lightweight, and it's even at the silver level."

She tried to pull the bowstring again, possibly because she had become stronger, and the pull was effortless.

Shen Jufeng's sword was slender and of silver grade. The blade was slightly softer and would even bend into a beautiful arc when swung.

The NPC explained the characteristics of this sword to him, saying, "The blade of this sword is different from the one you used before. It requires skill. You may need time to adapt."

Shen Jufeng nodded and said, "I know, but the effect of this sword is quite good."

The sword is known as the Bone Corrosion Sword, and it has a fixed attack value of 922. The effect has a 25% chance of triggering "Snake Entanglement". The entire length of the sword will extend and wrap around the prey. When the sword is retracted, it will inflict continuous damage with a 20% bonus.

The NPC also crafted a scabbard from snake bones. The long sword was sheathed, and the tentacles of the scabbard made of snake bones felt slightly cold.

Lu Jiu gazed at the cool look on his face as he held the sword and remarked, "If you wear a white ancient costume, you would resemble a hero from ancient times."

However, she is a female and doesn't have men's clothes; otherwise, she can give it a try.

There are girls in the city who know how to wear traditional costumes, but now that the weather is cold, no one wears such clothes anymore.

After acquiring a new weapon, naturally, I am eager to test its power in real combat situations, and it is still the silver level.

Although Zhuang Yun had customized his weapons, unfortunately, his were still at the bronze level. Therefore, upon noticing that his two teammates possessed silver weapons, he became even more eager than them to leave the city.

On the way, he also examined the new bow with Lu Jiu. The arrows he shot had a fixed attack value of 966 and a 25% chance of activating the "freeze" effect.

The body of the bow is adorned with two exquisite jade pieces, one on each end.

"Is this jade a decoration?" Zhuang Yun asked. They had previously discovered a mining area in Jinghe District, where there were abundant beautiful gems and jade.

But the jade inlay is processed.

Lu Jiu touched the jade and said, "This is called amber magatade. It's a special gem. When embedded in a weapon, it can increase the attack value. One jade can increase the attack value by 50, and two jades can increase the attack value by 100. So, I use this bow and add my attack value. Attribute, it can deal more than a thousand damage."

Shen Jufeng looked over curiously when he heard about such high damage. "Did you have it originally?"

Lu Jiu nodded, "Well, I found it in my backpack and sent it to the store manager. Let's see if we can inlay a piece of it onto the weapon."

When she customized the Bi Spider Bow previously, she requested the store manager to embed exquisite gemstones to increase the ornamental value.

Now, the Guanqing Bow has a pure white body with jade inlays on both ends, resembling a work of art.

Of course, Shen Jufeng was interested in being able to increase the attack attribute of weapons. "Do you have a lot of this? Can you sell a few?"

"There are many, and there is no indication that this is an out-of-print item. You two buy a few, and I will add more props with additional attributes."

Lu Jiu took out three props, namely the black pearl, which is a black pearl with a dark gold color. It can be embedded on the weapon to enhance its attributes. The Destiny Yao, a diamond-shaped blue gem, can be used to increase both the acceleration and defensive attributes.

The amber magatama, which Lu Jiu used, is a jade artifact that is larger at one end to a smaller end. It can increase the attack attributes of weapons.

Lu Jiu said, "Actually, there are many props in my backpack that we cannot use as props, and there are also several temporarily locked props."

Zhuang Yun is interested in pearls and magatama. However, when it comes to defensive purposes, sapphires are more suitable for inlaying on armor.

In the end, they both bought some separately. Lu Jiu mentioned that these were the most basic ones, and that there might be better ones in the future. Therefore, it wouldn't hurt to sell them to them.

Zhuang Yun looked at the props and said, "Even if these are not used as weapons, they still serve as beautiful decorations."

Before the end of the world, he couldn't afford such beautiful jade and was reluctant to buy it. He planned to go back and give one to his daughter as a gift. It's a toy. It's fun to take it out and look at it.

Lu Jiu flipped through the locked props in her backpack, thinking, "The bonus attributes shouldn't be so repetitive. I'll be able to obtain props that provide additional attributes in the future."

The three of them put away the things while Lu Jiu played with them. New weapons, they just want to encounter wild monsters as soon as possible.
