Additional effect: Flame Scuttle. Increases Movement Speed by 30% shortly and leaves behind a fiery path for 12 seconds. Deals 40 damage points to targets that are on the path. Cooldown: 30 minutes. Skills can only be used on mount.
Special feature: Battle while mounted! You can fight while seated on the mount.
“Battle Mount!”
“Isn’t this the Boss’ mount? It exploded out!” Everyone was stunned as battle mounts were ultra-rare items and were hard to find in The New Age. Recently, the Auction House had sold the [Little White Horse], which was the lowest grade amongst battle horses, for a staggering price of 700 gold coins.
Other than maintaining a high movement speed, battle mounts were extremely cool as well! The difference between riding a horse and walking could be compared to the disparity between driving a good car and riding a donkey. Having a battle mount would be a great aid, no matter if someone was doing a mission or picking up chicks.
This Flame Warhorse was even more premium! Its additional 2% Attack attribute was already powerful, coupled with a movement speed faster than the Tiger King, Flame Scuttle was an offensive move as well. However, Tiger King had a 20% faster spell casting speed than the Warhorse; indeed, each had their own merits.
Dumb Fox stared at the mount in shock for a while, before laughing. “It is indeed a high-grade item. Brother Lone Wolf, I am curious, how do you plan to split?”
Heaven Plume nodded his chin and frowned. “Exploding out unexpected items is one of the least desirable scenarios to occur. Although the teams generally decide by holding an auction and splitting an equal amount of money, it would still leave a crack in the relationship.”
“That’s right, when MTs, guild leaders, commanders, or anything one of importance name their price, the rest normally will not follow suit. This heavily impacts the team’s unity. Leader Lone Wolf, I am very curious as to how you will be splitting the items.” Ghost Eyes was interested as in his Hunter’s Guild, despite their cohesiveness, everyone would turn selfish in front of interest. This resulted in weak unity amongst all the teams except for the elite guild.
Lin Jie smiled and replied, “Very simple, those that want the mount, step forward.”
Dong—
Everyone took a step forward. The battle mount was indeed an ultra-rare item that was highly coveted.
“Ok, ROLL.” Lin Jie took out the dice. “Let’s go! My turn first!”
“1!”
Cough—
Lin Jie almost suffered internal damage from his rotten luck. He had read up on his horoscope today before coming online, didn’t it say that ‘Taurus is very lucky, everything will go smoothly?’ Could it be that in-game luck couldn’t be told by the almanac?
“Hahaha, your luck is pretty bad, my turn.” Disdain filled Baili Changcheng as he threw the dice, and a grand total of ‘2’ showed up. “What the f*ck!?”
“Baili, you go to one side, now it’s my turn.”
“Me too, me too.”
“My turn now, watch me get a 100!”
...
Savage Blade’s members were busy throwing the dice while the 3 guild leaders were slack-jawed. This was the battle mount! It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was capable of fetching thousands of gold coins at the Auction House! An item worth that much was decided by a dice ROLL? If it was up to them, they would be extremely cautious. It was best to purchase it with their guild leader position at a price higher than the market rate and split it among the members. Then they would either use it themselves or give it to another important member to win their heart.
The three men glanced at each other as shock filled their eyes.
Inksnow was itching to have a go as she shouted, “I want to try too.”
“Come on, come on.”
“How is Sister Inksnow’s luck? If it’s good, hurry to get Innocent back, in case he gets a Bronze Armor again.”
Nobody had any objection as this chick’s bravery and skills were all top-notch, and she had contributed greatly, hence earning respect from everyone.
Inksnow smiled and threw the dice. “100 points!”
The only 100 points.
“This Flame Warhorse now belongs to Sister Inksnow.” Lin Jie smiled and gave the mount to Inksnow. The warhorse was covered in flames and went very well with the Fiery Dragon Set. Inksnow looked like a female war god, beautiful and dignified.
“Thank you, thank you! Thank you, Handsome brother Lone Wolf for the gift!” said Inksnow ecstatically. She was still a girl, although she said no to the special treatment just now for Dumb Fox’s sake, she couldn’t contain her happiness after obtaining the mount. She still managed to tease Lin Jie amidst her happiness.
Bu Yi pouted as she felt uncomfortable all of a sudden. This reaction surprised her when she came back to her senses, and she calmed herself down hurriedly. Then Bu Yi smiled and shouted, “Innocent, what did you get?”
Far away, Zheng Ziliang had opened the treasure chest, he paused for a moment before grabbing the equipment and ran back.
A thick wrist guard, a tenuous dagger, a thick pair of boots, and a plain wand. There were also some materials, potions, and coins.
[Wasteland War Boots] (Dark Gold Fragment, Heavy Armor)
Requires: Level 40
Defense: 102-139
Endurance: +35
Movement Speed: +5
Additional effect: When being attacked by movement restriction skills, your Defense will increase by 20 points, stackable for 5 times.
Notice: Wasteland War Boots is incomplete. You have to collect the Wasteland Chain and Wasteland Scuttle Enchantment Feather to unleash all of its attributes.
Defense-type war boots that were specifically for Shield Specialists. After obtaining the Flame Warhorse, Inksnow stated that she would not take any more items. Furthermore, she was equipped with the Fiery Dragon Set, it was not worth it to disassemble and lose its set characteristics. The Heavenly Shield was guilty of making a deadly mistake and was reluctant to take the item.
The War Boots Fragment belonged to Mixed Breathless in the end.
[Fiery Hot Dagger] (Dark Gold)
Requires: Level 41
Attack: 374-593
Magic Attack: 384-620
Strength: +40
Wisdom: +40
Attack Power: +5%, Magic Attack Power: +10%
Additional effect: When your skill hits the target, your attack will have certain chances of causing 120 points of Fire Damage.
Additional effect: Flame Spell Level +1
Special skill: Fire Storm. After activation, it transforms all the Elemental Sword Artist’s skills to Fire attribute skills and produces scorching effect for 12 seconds. Cooldown period: 1 hour.
Baili Changcheng was the only Elemental Sword Artist in the team. He had a tight hold on the dagger and wasn’t willing to let it go. This dagger could be ranked top three amongst the Level 40 equipment for Elemental Sword Artists! Other than its high attack power, the additional effect would add a scorching effect to his ice control skills. Burning and Freezing the target at the same time would be a tale of two worlds.
The wand was the Dark Gold Fragment [Wand of Holy Dust]. It was a triple shard weapon and had an additional 20% high magic attack power, making it the most desired wand by Mages. If it was the usual times, Domestic Fat Cattle would have fought for it so hard, (although he always failed), however, he waved generously and said, “Wantless and Night, split it amongst yourselves.”
Lin Jie thought, ‘Fat Cattle is being so generous?’
Wantless glared at him ferociously. “You already have the Tri-Elemental Wand, if you still want to compete with me, I am going to slice you.”
It turned out that Domestic Fat Cattle had high EXP and leveled up after participating in the dragon-slaying plan. He had won the bet by leveling up 0.5 seconds faster and obtained the rights to smith the Tri-Elemental Wand. He was just waiting to collect rare materials to create the wand.
The wand belonged to Dejected Night in the end.
Lastly, it was the wrist guard.
[Devils Wrist Guard] (Dark Gold, Heavy Armor)
Requires: Level 41
Defense: 102-153
Strength: +55
Agility: +30
Attack Grade: +20, Strength Judgement: +20
Additional effect: Increase attack power by 20%
Additional effect: The power of the devils invaded you, you will lose 50 health points for every attack.
“It is the speciality, Devils Wrist Guard! I want this Dark Gold wrist guard,” said Lin Jie, and thus decided its allocation. He was currently equipped with ‘Earth Elemental Wrist Guard’, although it had pretty decent attributes, as well as the Unwavering effect, it was still too old-schooled. Furthermore, these Devils had an additional 20% attack boost! Even though it would take up some health points, it was still undeniably a powerful item.
This wrist guard was most suitable for Berserkers!
After equipping the Devils Wrist Guard, Lin Jie’s attack increased from 1283-1453 to 1402-1683! The 20% attack power was very substantial.
Lin Jie suddenly recalled a training method that was popular in his past: Berserkers equipped with health-draining attack equipment, and every critical hit would trigger the ‘Consecutive Strike’ effect. Otherwise, they would be fully drained by the health drain. Pushing oneself through such means was an intense grind. The Berserker’s Consecutive Strike was an attack that Lin Jie had to master in this life. After his rebirth, he had to rise to the top and outdo himself!
‘Guess I will have to collect a full suit of health-draining equipment to train.’ Lin Jie pinched his fingertip as he pondered.
In his previous life, his Consecutive Strike had not been impressive, and there had been hundreds of players that were better than him in The New Age. Consecutive Strike was his greatest weakness, however, he was also the only one to be titled Battle Emperor!
Actually, something had happened in his previous life. Bu Yi, who had been on good terms with Lin Jie, had been chased after by Three Alliances, and Lin Jie had unleashed the Berserker’s 100 Consecutive Strikes in a fit of rage! As he had blasted out the attack, he had felt as though he had reached a new realm. Unfortunately, that had only been a fleeting feeling, and his Consecutive Strike ability had returned to its usual average state afterward, and he had never had that feeling again. Indeed, humans were all forced out of their shells!
