Chapter 94

"Blackie, how's everything going there? What level are you all now?" Shi Feng asked.

"Upgrading in this hidden spot is so enjoyable. No one has come to snatch the monsters yet. Everyone is already over level 5. We've also obtained a lot of wolf meat and wolf hides, filling up our backpacks. Now we're preparing to go back and clear our backpacks." Blackie said excitedly. In this short time, farming the forest wolf dens had yielded four level 5 bronze equipment items, including a level 5 bronze staff, which significantly boosted his magic damage.

"So you've already filled up? You guys are really efficient." Shi Feng was slightly surprised. A stack of wolf meat was worth 100 gold, and Blackie and the others had bought many large backpacks. He didn't expect them to fill up so quickly. If they handed the wolf meat to Ziyun Liuyun to make high-level dishes and sell them, it would be a substantial amount of money.

"That's perfect. Give all the wolf meat to a female priest named Ziyun Liuyun and mention my name. After that, take a short rest, buy some mana and health potions, and wait for me in the trade area." Shi Feng thought that this short time wasn't enough for them to travel, so he decided to let Blackie and the others rest a bit.

"Brother Feng, are you going to run a dungeon with the Snow Goddess?" Blackie thought of something and said excitedly.

"Yes, rest well. After the dungeon, you'll need to be on high alert." Shi Feng nodded and hung up the communication.

Blackie almost jumped with excitement. He had thought that Shi Feng wouldn't take them along, as their skills were poor and they would be a laughingstock. Since Shi Feng didn't mind, they had nothing to complain about. This made Blackie look forward to it. Being able to run a dungeon with the Snow Goddess, even if it was embarrassing, would still be an honor. After all, they had the chance to team up with the Snow Goddess and run a dungeon.

In the White Sand Ruins, at Stone Hammer Town.

When the mayor, Hei Xu, saw Shi Feng walk in, he welcomed him warmly.

"Brother Ye Feng, you're here. The ice juice you sold me last time was so good that everyone in our town is addicted. Now, if we don't have a cup every day, we can't even sleep." Hei Xu joked.

"Respected Mayor Hei Xu, is this the Titan Heart you need?" Shi Feng smiled and took out the Titan Heart.

When Hei Xu saw the gray metal sphere, he was stunned.

The shape, color, and texture were exactly like the legendary Titan Heart.

"Yes, this is the Titan Heart, exactly as described in the ancient books. I never thought I would see it in my lifetime. Brother Ye Feng, I never expected you to be such a capable adventurer, capable of restoring the glory of our Black Iron Dwarves. I represent all the Black Iron Dwarves in expressing our deepest gratitude." Hei Xu took the Titan Heart, moved and thanked him repeatedly.

System: Completed the unique quest "Steel Shell Fortress." Reward: Black Iron Emblem, Hei Xu's letter of introduction, Advanced Mana Book, 100,000 experience points, Stone Hammer Town's reputation reaches Adoration.

A large number of rewards made Shi Feng's eyes dazzle. His level also increased to 6, 73%, which could be said to surpass the speed of those obsessed with leveling up.

Shi Feng wasn't very concerned about the experience points; it was the other rewards that were most important.

The rewards for this quest exceeded Shi Feng's expectations. A Titan Heart with no energy could turn a third-rate guild into a second-rate one. Now, with the Titan Heart still having a quarter of its energy, the rewards were unexpectedly good.

In the previous life, the player who received the rewards didn't get as much. They only got a letter of introduction and a Medium Mana Book, with their reputation reaching Adoration, but no Black Iron Emblem.

The Black Iron Emblem was a Fine Gold-level item, unique and limited to Ye Feng. It was the highest honor medal of the Black Iron Dwarves. Wearing it increased the success rate of forging by 5%, and there was a 10% chance of gaining an extra point in proficiency. During forging, there was a 1% chance of enhancing the item's attributes.

Shi Feng was surprised when he saw these descriptions. The Black Iron Emblem was practically a forging godsend, even stronger than the forging talent. Especially the 1% attribute enhancement, meaning that out of 100 forged items, one would have enhanced attributes. If he forged continuously, making 300 to 400 items a day was not a problem, which meant he could get 3 to 4 items with enhanced attributes.

In the game, the quality of equipment was everything. Even a slight increase in attributes, when accumulated across all equipment, could significantly surpass other players. Whether in PvP or dungeons, this would give a huge advantage.

Although he didn't know the extent of the enhancement, even a small increase in attributes would make the price much higher. If the enhancement was significant, the price would multiply, with one item being worth ten.

The Black Iron Emblem could be considered a pleasant surprise. The main purpose of this quest was to obtain the Mana Book and the letter of introduction, which were the capital for a guild to rise. Especially the Advanced Mana Book, which was unique.

Forging not only created equipment but also other items such as armor plates, gem clasps, and alchemy wands. Among these, armor plates had the highest demand and were the most common.

Generally, armor plates could enhance the attributes of chest armor, such as increasing defense or attributes, depending on the quality and level of the armor plates. The Advanced Mana Book obtained from Hei Xu was a unique and exclusive version for making armor plates.

This earned a large amount of money, turning a third-rate guild into a second-rate one. The Advanced Mana Armor Plates were a significant contribution.

As for Hei Xu's letter of introduction, it would only be useful in Baihe City, not now.

However, reaching Adoration in Stone Hammer Town allowed the purchase of personal-bound bronze-level, even black iron-level weapons and equipment at a low price, which even a level 10 ordinary player could afford. It was the best place to obtain black iron-level equipment, so many players liked to come here to farm reputation. After reaching Adoration, they would buy a set of level 10 black iron-level equipment, which could be considered high-level equipment.

However, farming to Adoration was not easy. It was almost impossible to wear a full set of black iron-level reputation equipment at level 10.

Moreover, a full set of black iron-level reputation equipment was slightly inferior to the bronze-level Silver Moon set, which top players wouldn't bother to wear.

Although Shi Feng wouldn't wear it, it had other uses, such as upgrading the Magic Weapon Abyssal. The Magic Weapon needed to consume weapons to upgrade. According to his understanding, the better the material of the consumed weapons, the more the attributes could be enhanced. A well-cultivated weapon could be much stronger than epic-level weapons, even rivaling legendary-level weapons.

If cultivated well, the attributes of the Magic Weapon could surpass legendary-level weapons, but it required a lot of good items. Even the leader of a second-rate guild couldn't afford it, and there was a significant risk of backlash. This was why everyone both loved and hated the Magic Weapon.

Considering the attributes of the Abyssal, originally consuming one level 5 black iron weapon and ten level 5 bronze weapons, Shi Feng bought eleven level 5 black iron weapons from the weapon shop, not knowing how much it would enhance.

He then opened the upgrade system of the Abyssal and let it consume these weapons.
