The other items were also the same.

Treasures that really contained powerful energy, even their cores would be extremely valuable. Even if all the energy was drawn out, the remaining materials were still extremely precious and could be auctioned off at a sky-high price.

For example, the Spacial Sky Crystal was the most precious space treasure that was extremely powerful. The amount of spatial energy contained in the Spacial Sky Crystal, the size of one’s nail, was as much as tens of carriages of Time Sand! After drawing out all of the power of space from within, the Spacial Sky Crystal would become Sky Crystal. The Sky Crystal was the hardest diamond in The New Age, it was a rare and precious material that could forge Legendary items.

“My luck is really bad, but yours is quite good. This is the Spider Demigod’s eyes, I’ll dig them out for you for free.” After Lin Jie had destroyed the teleportation circle, the medium for the teleportation circle appeared, and it was actually the corpse of Spider Demigod Kaga, which Breeze Wind was looking for. Those eyeballs were the mission items. Hungry Tiger and the others did not dig and take them, allowing Breeze Wind to complete her mission.

The difficulty of that mission was simply exploring the depths of the Spider Den and that only. As for the Spider Demigod, who knew how many eras it had already been dead?

“That’s great.” Breeze Wind stuffed the two eyeballs into her backpack and heaved a sigh of relief. She smiled and said, “AOE Battle Rez can be learned with these. With this skill, then I am worthy of being a strong Healer Druid.”

“AOE Battle Rez is powerful, but the skill punishment is not low either, the cooldown time is even as long as three days. Wait till you join the Nature Temple and learn the Forbidden Spells of Nature, then you’ll truly be strong.”

“The Nature Temple? I’ve received an invitation from them before, many leaders of major guilds would be on good terms with the NPCs. So, every time NPC organizations, such as Nature Temple, Warriors Arena, and Hunter’s Hall, recruit people, they would obtain quota and send the elites of their guilds for further training. However, it’s not all advantages as although the skills there are powerful, they have the obligation to work for the NPCs. I don’t want to do that.” Breeze Wind smiled as she finished her sentence.

“Let’s go, we have almost finished settling the things here. You should go and complete your mission first. I’ll add you to Savage Blade. Next, I’ll need to go and create some havoc.” Lin Jie waved his hand and directly tore the returning scroll, teleporting him to Sunshine City. Immediately after, he sent a team invite to Breeze Wind. With the system prompt message, Breeze Wind had joined the Savage Blade team.

Domestic Fat Cattle sent: “Our boss is awesome, you’re so efficient! Did Bi Yueshuang enter? Hurry, hurry, hurry, our Savage Blade’s rule is that newcomers need to send pictures, tell us the measurements of your BWH(Bust, Waist, and Hip), and your phone number. Quickly come to Sakura’s bar, we’ll treat you to a drink.

Baili Changcheng: “Welcome newcomer, Breeze Wind? Wasn’t it Bi Yueshuang?”

Zheng Ziliang: “It’s fine as long as it’s a woman.”

Everyone in Savage Blade: “…”

Lin Jie was rendered speechless. ‘Just how thirsty were these few bast*rds?’ Although there were fewer women in Savage Blade, they were all the most gorgeous beauties. Upon seeing how these three acted, they were blatantly ignoring those three beauties in the team!

In the Savage Blade team’s group chat, Lin Jie was the team leader, while Netherblue was the vice team leader. When Lin Jie was not around, Netherblue was the one responsible for gathering information, sorting out announcements, and sending messages. Lin Jie was really not good at doing such meticulous tasks, so Netherblue had been really helping him to relieve a huge burden. Therefore, no one had any objections to Netherblue being the vice team leader.

Ding~

—’Vice Team Leader Netherblue has set the condition for muting, the messages of male members have been banned.’

“Cough, cough, welcome newcomer, welcome to Savage Blade.” Netherblue aggressively discriminated genders and started to officially greet the new member. Although Breeze Wind was the commander of the Never Setting Sun, she had heard of Savage Blade’s prestigious acts, so she did not put on airs and thanked Netherblue in a docile manner. She quickly became familiar with the girls.

Lin Jie’s communication device rang crazily, it was Domestic Fat Cattle. Just as he answered the call, he could hear Domestic Fat Cattle shouting with all his might. “Boss, don’t ban us! I have searched her up before, although her chest is quite flat, her legs, hehehe… could be compared with Bi Yueshuang. So how about this, give me this Breeze Wind and boss you’ll chase Bi Yueshuang. We won’t let outsiders take the girls in our team, how about we just split them amongst ourselves? Hello, hello…”

Lin Jie directly hung up.

‘Still Bi Yueshuang!’ Just mentioning her made Lin Jie furious! Lin Jie suddenly felt maybe muting the males was not bad either, or else if a girl was added to the team, she might even think this was a wolf’s den with a pack of thirsty wolves.

Now, Lin Jie was walking around casually in a Guild Base. This Guild Base was named “Never Setting Sun Empire,” and as its name suggested, it was the Never Setting Sun’s Guild Base. It had already reached Level 3 and could be compared to a normal small town. All the equipment and potions were provided by the guild members in the Guild Base. Not only were the effects excellent, but the prices were also relatively lower, so there were plenty of people there.

Lin Jie looked for a Blacksmith’s Shop, after paying 50 silver coins, he directly entered a private room.

As the saying went, “Good tools are prerequisites to the success of a job”. After Lin Jie obtained the Mutated Spider Thread, he had yet to strengthen his Broken Blade! With experience from his previous life, Lin Jie understood that strengthening was not as simple as just throwing all the materials for the weapon to devour. The weapon’s devouring and altering abilities were limited, so only with the correct guidance from the player could the weapon’s strengthening become perfect.

The Mutated Spider Thread was an item only Hidden Bosses had a small chance of dropping. They would drop 1 to 10 Mutated Spider Threads each time, and Lin Jie’s luck was quite good. Since he was the King of Unluckiness, who could not obtain good equipment from drops, he could only experience the feeling of obtaining good items when materials were dropped. The spider threads looked like vermicelli, they were transparent and soft, but extremely tough. If Hunters used the Mutated Spider Thread to make their bow, then it could result in an additional 20% Strength Judgement, it was very practical.

Lin Jie grabbed the burning charcoals and directly wrapped the Mutated Spider Thread with them. The Mutated Spider Thread instantly let out sizzling sounds as if it was being barbecued and immediately softened. However, the softening would only last two seconds. After two seconds, it would return to being indestructible and would not fear fire anymore.

“Ha!” Lin Jie grabbed the Mutated Spider Thread and placed it on the tip of his Broken Blade. That ball of spider thread started entering Broken Blade like roundworms, and the Broken Blade’s interior gradually changed. It started to condense into a ball and was restrained within. The Mutated Spider Thread would shoot out according to Lin Jie’s will.

—’Heritage Broken Blade’s strengthening has succeeded.’

Lin Jie held the Broken Blade, which had finished strengthening. Its attributes did not change, but there was something like an indent where the blade was broken. Lin Jie inserted the Supplementary Sword to Broken Blade, and they fitted perfectly. The Supplementary Sword had seemed to become a part of Broken Blade. Meanwhile, Broken Blade’s damage value also increased by 100-200 points—that was the enhancement from the Supplementary Sword.

“Go!” Lin Jie flicked his sword, and the Broken Blade and Supplementary Sword split between them was an extremely long, transparent spider thread. The Supplementary Sword pierced straight forward with the aura of Broken Blade, leaving a deep dent on the wall. Immediately after, it rebounded and landed in Lin Jie’s hands. Meanwhile, the spider thread, which connected the Broken Blade and Supplementary Sword, seemed to have consumed all its energy and curled up into a ball.

“It is able to shoot out once, the cooldown time is around 3 minutes. The attack that is launched will carry Broken Blade’s Attack Powers.” Lin Jie’s Broken Blade also had such a function in his previous life, so naturally, he was extremely clear about the effects.

However, in his previous life, Lin Jie had taken the wrong path for Broken Blade’s strengthening, so the effects were not as good—it was only able to shoot at most 20 yards, unlike now, it was able to shoot around 40 yards. It was already comparable to a Hunter’s shooting range.

In Lin Jie’s previous life, Broken Blade had been able to shoot a weapon that was under the grade of Gold, but the effects were not ideal as besides considering the attributes of the equipment, there were other factors, such as weight, shape, and so on. Otherwise, it might result in the tragedy of being unable to retrieve back the weapon after it was launched.

However, now, with the Supplementary Sword, it was different. The Supplementary Sword was a perfect fit for the Broken Blade, so the problems from his previous life were non-existent.

‘Modification completed!’

Lin Jie heaved a sigh of relief. He walked out of the Blacksmith’s Shop with the Broken Blade that had the Supplementary Sword attached. An inexplicable expression appeared on his face.

“Hey, bro, let me ask you something. Where is the City Leader Mansion in the Guild Base?” asked Lin Jie smilingly.

The owner of the Blacksmith’s Shop was also a member of Never Setting Sun, every day, he would boringly forge equipment, and there was nothing else to do. So when Lin Jie came to borrow a room, he raised the price of the single room 10 times from 5 silver coins, and Lin Jie had actually accepted. That made him extremely happy, so when he heard Lin Jie’s question, he directly pointed at the direction of the City Leader Mansion without hesitation and said with a smile, “It’s in the east, all the way. Hehe, you’re also here for the new NPC, right? The mission that the new NPC released is extremely good. If I were a battling job, I would have also gone.”

“The new NPC?” Lin Jie was stunned momentarily, but then he smiled and said, “Yeah, I was attracted by the fame of the NPC.”

“Alright then, good luck. If you obtain any good equipment, don’t forget to come here to forge it. I’ll give you a 20% discount,” said the owner solicitously.

Lin Jie nodded and headed towards the City Leader’s Mansion, but in his head, he was thinking, ‘NPC? An NPC with rich mission rewards? If the NPC is not a generous person who is giving away money, then most likely, he has other intentions!’ Having thought of that, Lin Jie touched his chin, just nice, the City of Light lacked some interesting NPCs, which could attract players. If this NPC could really release missions with bountiful rewards, then abducting him to the City of Light was quite the best choice.

NPCs were the key to the development of a town. For example, when the Barbarian Enchanter was at the City of Light, many people had been specially teleporting to the City of Light to enhance their equipment. Originally, when Master Blue had been the only NPC that could forge attribute equipment, it had also caused the number of people in the City of Light to increase greatly. Now, since the City of Light was his, Lin Jie had to properly manage it.

Lin Jie knew plenty of rare NPCs’ addresses, but he put them temporarily to the side. He went to meet that new NPC first. If the NPC really had value, then even if he used methods like lying or kidnapping, he had to snatch him away!

At the City Leader’s Mansion.

When Lin Jie saw that NPC’s human-like expressions, he knew it would not be easy to deal with it. Although the NPCs in The New Age were totally personified, there were some mechanized, fixed speeches. However, after coming in contact with this NPC, he realized that this NPC was smooth and slick. He even spoke with fervor and assurance; there were no traces of mechanizing.

When he noticed the name, Lin Jie was stunned!

Falcon!
