Chapter 44

Although failure was something Shi Feng could afford, no one wanted to throw money away, so he felt a bit nervous.

After Shi Feng clicked to view the data, the words "Detecting" appeared on the armor's display screen.

The red progress bar gradually began to grow as the system was evaluating the equipment's data.

After three seconds, the system finished reading and displayed the armor's data.

Guard Armor, Bronze Plate Armor, Equipment Requirement: 10 Strength, Equipment Level: 3, Defense +22, Strength +2, Stamina +3, Health +150, Durability 35/35, Attached Ability: Defense Power, Damage Taken Reduced by 3%, Limited to Shield Warrior, Guardian Knight.

System: Forging Guard Armor successful, Forging Proficiency increased by 2 points, 800 experience points gained.

"Great, it even has Defense Power." Looking at the attached ability, Shi Feng was very pleased.

He didn't expect that his first attempt at forging bronze equipment would be successful and yield such a high amount of experience. No wonder many forging masters in his previous life didn't go monster hunting and still had high levels. This Guard Armor not only met the basic attribute requirements but also had an attached ability.

Originally, the Guard Armor did not have Defense Power, but due to the forging master's exceptional performance and the presence of the strange fire, it was possible for an attached ability to appear, increasing the value of the equipment.

Shi Feng carefully examined the Guard Armor. Its silver-gray metallic texture and stylish design were far superior to ordinary bronze equipment. He was very satisfied with this piece of work.

Currently, ordinary equipment was still the mainstream for players. Even if players later leveled up to levels 5 or 6, it was not uncommon for them to still wear ordinary equipment. After all, bronze equipment was too difficult to obtain. Even high-level players in elite teams would be happy to have one or two pieces of bronze equipment.

If the Guard Armor, which both Shield Warriors and Guardian Knights could wear, were sold, it would definitely be welcomed by elite teams. After all, the quality of a main tank's equipment could make dungeon runs much easier. Even if Shi Feng sold it for 4 silver coins, these teams would be willing to buy it at any cost.

As for the Guard Armor with Defense Power, the improvement for a main tank was obvious. Shi Feng would not sell it for less than 5 silver coins.

With the experience of the first successful forging, Shi Feng began to forge another Guard Armor.

However, this time Shi Feng used refined steel to see what kind of equipment it would produce.

In less than ten minutes, the second piece of Guard Armor was formed.

However, its color was different from the previous one, being dark black instead of silver-gray.

After three seconds of system detection, the data was displayed again.

Heavy Guard Armor, Bronze Plate Armor, Equipment Requirement: 14 Strength, Equipment Level: 3, Defense +25, Strength +2, Stamina +4, Health +150, Durability 40/40, Attached Ability: Defense Power, Damage Taken Reduced by 5%, Limited to Shield Warrior, Guardian Knight.

System: Forging Heavy Guard Armor successful, Forging Proficiency increased by 2 points, 1000 experience points gained.

System: Due to the talent Forging Genius, an additional 2 points of Forging Proficiency are gained.

Shi Feng had forgotten about the additional Forging Proficiency gained from the talent. He stared intently at the Heavy Guard Armor. Such attributes were comparable to level 3 black iron equipment, and the price would be at least 10 silver coins.

He didn't expect that adding refined steel would result in such a significant change. The forging master's gift was indeed special, but unfortunately, only nine pieces of refined steel remained.

Given the effect of refined steel, Shi Feng naturally wouldn't misuse it. He would save it for future forging of other high-quality equipment.

Two hours passed quickly. Shi Feng continuously forged Guard Armor, obtaining a total of twenty-three pieces, but four of them failed.

However, Shi Feng was already very satisfied. The four failed pieces of Guard Armor could be offset by the profit from one successful piece.

At the same time, Shi Feng's level also increased to level 3, not far behind the high-level players. His Forging Proficiency increased to 44 points, which was more than four to five times faster than the forging players in the guilds.

Shi Feng then left the intermediate forging room and went to the auction house.

He directly listed the eleven pieces of Guard Armor without Defense Power, with a starting price of 4 silver coins. As for the Guard Armor with Defense Power and the Heavy Guard Armor, he decided to keep them for now, to let the guilds and elite teams taste the quality first. This way, the remaining Guard Armor could be sold at a better price.

Shi Feng then set up a stall in the trade area, shouting out a few times, and a large number of players came to sell stone and magic essence. After collecting stone and magic essence for half an hour, Shi Feng checked the time. The virtual world was almost evening, and the monsters would become much stronger at night, making it difficult to level up. It was also time for him to rest.

He was currently using a virtual helmet, not a virtual rest chamber, which could provide the body with the necessary energy and nutrients and stimulate the muscles to prevent physical weakness caused by prolonged play in the virtual world.

Shi Feng casually swiped his finger to bring up the system interface and selected to log out.

At this moment, in the small rented room, the sun had already shone through the window, and the indoor temperature began to rise.

Shi Feng removed the virtual helmet, slightly rose, and stretched.

After more than ten hours of inactivity, lying in bed had made his body numb, and he needed to move around.

Shi Feng began to do basic exercises such as push-ups and sit-ups.

In the highly materialized present, physical exercise had become an essential part of life.

Several decades ago, many scientists had achieved great success in researching body strengthening and life extension, allowing all humans to maintain youth for longer and increasing the average life expectancy to 100 years. They also emphasized the necessity of physical exercise.

Thus, the era of national fitness arrived.

Nowadays, sports competitions and martial arts tournaments are highly popular.

In universities, there are many sports and martial arts clubs that are very popular among students.

In today's society, anyone without some skills would be looked down upon. Sports stars and martial arts experts are highly revered. As for the sports special admissions and students who frequently participate in sanda competitions in universities, they are always surrounded by beautiful women. The era of pretty boys from several hundred years ago is no longer in vogue.

In his previous life, Shi Feng neglected his health, almost damaging his body. By the time he wanted to exercise, he was already quite old, and even with intense training, the results were not significant.

In this life, Shi Feng would not neglect his physical exercise while focusing on the virtual world.

After exercising for half an hour, Shi Feng, drenched in sweat, took a shower and was about to eat the instant noodles he had prepared when the phone rang.

Shi Feng looked at the contact and saw that it was the female class president, Zhao Ruoxi, whom he hadn't spoken to much.

"Class President, is there anything?" Shi Feng asked after answering the call.

In his memory, apart from class, he had no contact with the female class president, and the total number of words they had exchanged in four years was less than a hundred.

"Shi Feng, come to school quickly. Since you're not in the boys' dormitory, you weren't notified. I'm telling you now. There's an important announcement at 11:00 in Room 401 of Building 3."

Shi Feng looked at the electronic clock on the table; it was already 10:30. He replied, "Okay, I'll be there right away."
