Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Qin Ruo’s unusual behavior had gained Permanent Lock’s attention. With a glance, Permanent Lock noticed the appraised necklace on the counter. The necklace looked just like a Cyclops’.

“Wow! This necklace is so intricate.”

The Permanent Lock exclaimed in excitement and wanted to take the necklace to have a look on it. Unfortunately, only the owner could take the appraised equipment, not even players in the same team could take it. Too bad for Permanent Lock.

He looked at Qin Ruo, who carefully picking up the eerie Cyclops necklace. Out of excitement, he moved nearer to Qin Ruo to look at the necklace.

Eye of Galbis:

Dark Gold tier

Contains passive skill – Galbis’ Glare (After equipping, users who look at non-alliance players for more than three seconds can activate the skill. It increases the MP consumption of the targeted player for 2 points per second).

The additional MP consumption caused by gazing will be absorbed into the Eye of Galbis. It can store a maximum of five hundred MP. When capacity is maxed, the user can activate Mana Transfer (Transfer the mana stored from the Eye of Galbis to the user).

“...”

Qin Ruo was slightly disappointed. Originally, he had high expectations for the Dark Gold necklace that Poochie found. Who knew that the necklace contained no attributes whatsoever, only a skill.

The most disappointing was that the skill was not practical at all...

Although Galbis’ Glare could accelerate an enemy’s MP consumption which was similar to Mana Drain, the gaze could only be triggered after three seconds. For each second, it increased the mana consumption’s speed by 2 points. This did not seem to be very powerful. If there were two enemies, does it mean that it could not gaze at two people simultaneously?

The passive skill was already not so useful, what more Mana Transfer.

Qin Ruo had over five hundred MP and this skill allowed him to recover almost his entire mana pool. However, Qin Ruo already had the Ring of Honor and this skill was just like an MP Potion (L). It did not make any sense for him to put so much effort to drain MP from an enemy.

While Permanent Lock did not make any comments, Qin Ruo stored the necklace into Ring of Honor. This necklace probably would only be useful during a one-on-one battle.

After that, he continued to inspect the other five Dark Gold equipment...

Unfortunately, Qin Ruo did not have the previous excitement already. The anticipation of inspecting Dark Gold equipment after the Legendary equipment was just like a player who had a full set of Gold equipment look at the mere Violet equipment.

Although those five Dark Gold equipment were still worth something, he was not expecting much.

After that, it was the turn to inspect the numerous Gold equipment and miscellaneous items such as Embedded Gemstones and Magic Scrolls.

The value of these items were much lower than that of Dark Gold equipment as they were consumable items, but they still drew Qin Ruo’s attention!

Enchantment Gemstone with Physical Damage reduction increased by 8%.

Enchantment Gemstone with Physical Resistance increased by 200 points.

Enchantment Gemstone with maximum HP increased by 300 points

Among the attributes of these three Enchantment Gemstones, the first two Enchantment Gemstones were suitable with the Dark Gold equipment that were compatible with Galbis’ Set. As long as there were Dark Gold equipment that originally came with the Physical Damage reduction attribute, the gemstones embedded into the Dark Gold equipment could produce very strong combat equipment!

The value of the last Enchantment Gemstone was smaller. However, Enchantment Gemstone with max HP increased by three hundred points was quite rare compared to other increase max HP type of Enchantment Gemstones. If there were Dark Gold equipment that originally came with a high chance of raising maximum HP, such Enchantment Gemstone could be very useful.

Two Magic Scrolls attracted Qin Ruo’s attention as well.

One of them was Realm Distortion which any Elementalists could use. The user who used it was able to cast teleport. It was very useful to escape from battles.

Another Magic Scroll was able to summon a giant mountain with a height of thirty meters and a radius of fifteen meters. It was a Tier 5 AoE offensive Magic Scroll—Mount of Demise! Of course, a Magic Scroll that could attract Qin Ruo’s attention was not ordinary. It was a Magic Scroll with special offensive attributes.

Can pierce through elements.

Ignores defense.

The combination of both these attributes could cause tremendous damage to players affected by the attacks, regardless if they were Warriors or Elementalists. The only exception was if the player had very high HP that was sufficient to tank the tremendous damage.

The appraisal of miscellaneous items was complete. However, Qin Ruo suddenly recalled the yellowish stone that Poochie liked very much...

He frowned but still took out that item to appraise.

Meanwhile, he realized that the Permanent Lock had already shifted his gaze elsewhere and leaned on the counter. It looked like he was not interested in the other miscellaneous items already but was instead buried in deep contemplation.

As for the other inexperienced players in the appraisal shop, they were still standing behind with a look of awe at the rare opportunity to look at the gemstones and equipment. Even though they could not inspect the equipment’s attributes, they still felt very excited looking at those items.

Just when Qin Ruo handed over the dazzling yellowish stone, which looked neither like a Mana Core nor an Enchantment Gemstone, the players behind saw the three appraisal masters in front flash looks of shock and excitement.

The three appraisal masters took a deep breath and while in excitement, they swiftly looked at each other. Both the appraisal masters on the right and on the left side nodded their head toward the appraisal master in the middle.

The appraisal master in the middle solemnly took up the yellowish stone and held it before his eyes. The look of the appraisal master was like he had appraised a piece of Legendary equipment...

Qin Ruo was surprised. He just realized that he had underestimated the stone that Poochie brought to him. Previously, Qin Ruo already started to feel disheartened due to the appraisal of the miscellaneous items. Right now he was again hyped from what he just saw! He took a deep breath and stared intently at the appraisal masters who were appraising the stone.

A colorful light appeared! Permanent Lock who was still deep in thought suddenly blinked and snapped out of it.

“Still got a final precious thing?”

Permanent Lock thought that Qin Ruo had intentionally left a precious item last for appraisal and was thrilled as well.

Both of them gazed at the appraisal masters and the yellowish stone that was being appraised under the colorful light. Their gazes became more solemn as time passed...

“This is!”

As time passed, they both realized the appraisal masters seemed to be using a lot of energy to transfer the yellow light surrounding the stone into it.

While the appraisal masters were busy focusing, the yellowish light was absorbed into the stone gradually. With that, the identity of the stone was slowly revealed to the players.

“Ugh...”

Permanent Lock opened his mouth and pointed at the stone. He suspiciously looked at those appraisal masters who were busy concentrating and the dumbfounded expression on Qin Ruo’s face. Yet he still had no idea what was going on.

Initially, the yellowish light surrounding the stone gave people a mysterious sense but now, the light had faded. No matter how Qin Ruo and the Permanent Lock looked at the stone, it still looked like just an ordinary stone...

“That’s right! It was just a stone with spider-like patterns. God damn it!”

The Permanent Lock glanced through the three appraisal masters who still looked very solemn. He then cursed inwardly.

“What can this ordinary stone do? Not that it can store more MP than a Mana Core.”

However, what Permanent Lock did not realize was...

Just as the light surrounding the stone completely disappeared, Qin Ruo who was initially confused was suddenly astonished.

Qin Ruo stared closely at the stone with spider-like patterns that the appraisal master was holding. He then realized that this stone looked like something he was familiar with...

“Yes, this is it! It really looks like that ‘thing’. Its hexagonal shape and the size matches that ‘thing’. Just that it looks a little bit bigger. If it is that ‘thing’, then the surprised look of the appraisal masters makes sense.

“But this is impossible!”

Qin Ruo immediately brushed aside his wild thoughts as he had seen that ‘thing’ appraised before. It should not take such a long time to appraise and the appraisal process of both items was completely different!

Just as Qin Ruo was still in doubt, Permanent Lock whose temperament was not good suddenly asked, “Hey, how are you going to deal with this ordinary stone that you appraisal masters appraised?” He asked the question mockingly while looking at the appraisal masters.

As the appraisal masters had warned him before, Permanent Lock did not say more. He feared that if he really pissed off the NPCs, the appraisal charges in future would be a hundred times higher. Worse still, the NPCs might not even accept any of his appraisal requests.

However, the three appraisal masters were not angry with Permanent Lock this time. Instead, they just glanced at Permanent Lock disdainfully. Later on, the leader of the appraisal masters retracted the colorful light from his palm.

Suddenly, the lead appraisal master magically revealed a tiny sparkling hammer.

Permanent Lock’s eyes almost popped out of its sockets when he saw that...

“Wow! Isn’t this a luxury?”

“Such a tiny hammer is considered Legendary tier? Is this a joke?!”

Just as Permanent Lock was still startled from what he had seen, the appraisal master solemnly took the tiny hammer and knocked softly on the stone with spider-like patterns.

Such action from the appraisal master made Qin Ruo even more nervous and excited. He took a deep breath and widened his eyes to take a good look at the stone.

Crack!

After the tiny hammer hit the stone, it cracked gradually and the fractured surface exposed a yellowish translucent crystal.

The moment Qin Ruo saw the yellowish crystal, his heart skipped for a beat and he started breathing heavily.
