Chapter 41 - Preparations before the Battle
The six left the bar and went about their ways. Sword Demon and War Without Wounds had to get their equipment repaired, Royal God Call had to replenish his quiver of arrows, Brother Assist went straight toward Yunxia Valley, and Young Master Han expressed, “I should find another piece of cloth. These two I have really aren’t enough to hide my beauty.”
As for Gu Fei, he headed to the Auction House. He still had dozens of gold coins on himself, so he decided to purchase a more useful weapon.
The common-grade sword he originally had suited him perfectly, although it was an unremarkable piece of weaponry in the eyes of many. It was so mediocre that no one would consider selling it in the Auction House. Gu Fei spent quite some time searching for something similar, yet he still left empty-handed.
Gu Fei had specific criteria that were distinct from other players when it came to his weapon. He was very particular about the weapon’s length, weight, and specifications. Gu Fei felt that these requirements were far more important than the stated Physical Attack of the weapon as they would greatly affect his ability to display his combat prowess fully. The in-game search engine lacked the advanced parameters to sort through those aspects, so Gu Fei could only inspect each item individually in the Exhibition Hall.
This made Gu Fei’s search more intensive and time-consuming. By the time the others from the mercenary team indicated their arrival at Yunxia Valley in the private group channel, Gu Fei had just found a suitable Chinese broadsword.
Flames of Baptism. It had a much higher Physical Attack than Gu Fei’s previous common-grade sword, and it even had a 30% chance of inflicting an additional fire attack to opponents.
Other players would consider such a weapon as barely acceptable. In Parallel World, additional Spell Damage from equipment was affected by the character’s own stat distribution. This meant that characters with higher magic affinity could naturally inflict stronger Spell Damage by using magic weapons. Hence, job classes, such as Warriors, that had poor magic affinity preferred weapons that could cause status effect in lieu of Spell Damage. Examples of these status effects were the Slow effect that Ice Damage could cause, Paralysis from Electric Damage, and so on. Weapons like Flames of Baptism, which could inflict additional Fire Damage without causing status effect, were considered only tolerable.
This was why everyone ignored this weapon, which cost about 60 gold coins, even though it had an additional magic attack proc rate1 of 30%. Compared to Flames of Baptism, many players would probably prefer something like Sword Demon’s Frost Memories, which boosted 10% chance of causing a freezing effect.
