Chapter 590: Chapter 590: Gathering Place
The first thing Li Yao wanted to enhance was the Blue Moon Bow, which is currently very good equipment, even if its level is a bit low.
Of course, if Li Yao wanted to get a gold weapon, it wasn’t impossible, but it would be such a waste of time.
Li Yao’s time is now extremely precious and he did not want to waste it on unnecessary equipment. Especially since no player can stand up to him at this stage, coupled with a slight enhancement of his weapon’s qualities and damage being sufficient; Li Yao naturally wouldn’t waste time.
He now has a 20th level purple weapon and has also newly obtained a sniper rifle, so Li Yao would not waste any more time on gold weapons.
It’s only something like Dark Touch that would make Li Yao continuously seek it out, spending time to look for it. Naturally because Li Yao was very clear, that encountering something such as Dark Touch was chance and not a matter of searching. If he gave up clues now, he would not know how much effort and time it would take in the future.
Li Yao directly brought out the Blue Moon Bow and started strengthening it. The chances of enhancing gold weapons are even lower. It is fairly stable until reaching +4 but past that it’s a pit. Li Yao was always hovering between +4 and +6.
In fact, Li Yao’s requirements are not high. He would stop at +7. As he hadn’t obtained any materials yet that could protect his weapons from breaking, buying one would cost 500 gold coins from a shop, which he could not bear to use.
And this kind of protective material only guards the weapon and equipment against shattering — the rate of success is still shockingly low.
The equipment improves greatly at +4, and it undergoes a major change at +7, so Li Yao thought +7 would be completely enough. After +7, the attributes of the Blue Moon Bow would be equivalent to unenhanced 25th level gold equipment; entirely sufficient.
Although he reached +6 four or five times, they all failed when trying for +7. Even more frustrating was if the enhancement failed, not only would the enhancement not increase, but it would randomly drop 1-4 levels.
This was desperate, Li Yao has been hovering between 2-6. In the end, Li Yao squandered over a hundred enhancement gems before finally reaching +7.
Even Li Yao, a rich player like him, was sweating. He only had around four hundred gems from killing bosses and amassing silver ingots and weapons. Normal players would consider themselves the fortunate ones with ten or so.
“I really am not cut out for enhancement.” Li Yao smiled bitterly while looking at the finally enhanced Blue Moon Bow.
He was used to it. In his previous life, his luck wasn’t bad, evolving at least one Quasi-god level pet.
But every time he enhanced equipment, he would spend his last penny. Plus he was poor in his previous life, so every time he saw a world announcement of someone enhancing equipment above +10, he could only envy them.
Surprisingly, it was the same in this life. Li Yao couldn’t help but smile bitterly. But the weapon still needed to be enhanced, otherwise, it would not be enough to deal with ogres.
Li Yao also strengthened the Nightmare Crossbow a bit, then it was the sniper rifle. After everything was enhanced, Li Yao found that he didn’t have many gems left in his hands, but luckily all were enhanced. Li Yao felt satisfied as he wasn’t exactly a pushover.
However, more than half the day had already passed. It was noon when Li Yao got here and by the time he stepped out of the enhancement room, it was already dark.
With no other choice Li Yao was left to find an inn to stay.
After it got dark, he dared not travel in the marshes, which would definitely be suicidal.
When bored, Li Yao let Pupil broadcast the guild construction situation, only for Unparalleled Witch to find out and directly ordered him offline to deal with the teams’ affairs.
Li Yao couldn’t help but go offline and was dragged around by Unparalleled Witch to handle various formalities.
Luckily, Unparalleled Witch knew this well and knew quite a few people in this regard, so the process went smoothly. If Li Yao had been left to handle it on his own, he would have needed to run his legs off and he still might not have gotten it done.
“Don’t be unhappy. If it wasn’t for me, you would not have completed a task in half a day that might’ve taken you ten days.” Unparalleled Witch said to Li Yao, who had a bitter expression on his face.
Li Yao gave a bitter smile, “I know, I just don’t like this kind of thing, but at least it’s finally settled.”
Li Yao was also confused. In his last life, he kept dreaming of becoming club boss. Now that he was about to realize this dream, he found out this lifestyle was not what he liked.
“I know you like to be a carefree boss, but the paperwork is pretty much all done. It won’t need you anymore. However, once the guild base is ready, and the team has been set up, let the team members move into the base to create some camaraderie. Also, the core guild members who want to live here can move in. The place is ready.” Unparalleled Witch said.
“Hmm, just handle the team matters. I’ll talk to Li in a while to see how many core members want to move over here. I think Li already has an idea,” Li Yao said.
It is a common practice in many large guilds. The more core members gather together. Not only to develop feelings and welfare, but it’s also convenient for mobilization.
The reason is simple. For now, the guild hasn’t much. But now they have a base, and they shouldn’t miss out on various guild events, especially during guild wars. They advance and retreat together, and the unified mobilization provides combat power.
Otherwise, if others attack the base, the base might be compromised by the time all members gather.
Of course, Li Yao doesn’t need to take care of all this. Except for the necessary paperwork requiring his signature, he doesn’t want to deal with any miscellaneous matters.
When Li Yao logged in again, it was already dawn in the game.
Li Yao prepared for a while, bought some commonly used items in the marsh from the sundries shop, found the captain to mark the location of the northern outpost, and then set off.
The Nightmare made things much easier. Of course, this was in the eyes of others. Li Yao had long thought of getting some simple mounts, the kind that could take you to places directly once told.
Like large Gronns, or black dragons, you could do other things while traveling.
If the envious onlookers knew what Li Yao was thinking, they probably would want to kill him. They had to either follow the transport team or walk, his riding on a mount was already unique.
Because of the mount, he was also freed from the trouble of getting entangled with monsters.
Princess Mage clearly possessed great leadership skills. There were quite a few roads in the marsh. Along the way, he saw many outposts and patrolling soldiers. They firmly controlled the northern marsh in their hands.
There are still many monsters here, but there are no signs of them gathering on a large scale. It’s clear that this place has become a material collection field.
Li Yao spent half a day circling the marsh before finally arriving in the southern part of the marsh.
Thanks to the fire eagle, Li Yao saw many groups. Among them, a small valley was filled with terrifying earth dragons. An abandoned mine was occupied by countless spiders.
These places are all monster strongholds, a leveling paradise for high-level players. But for players with weak strength, approaching here is asking for death…
