Chapter 12 - Chapter 10: Trading Up for Better Gear

Jiang Nan watched eagerly as a large pile of White Crystals was divided among the three.

She didn't get a single piece.

But she wasn't at all dissatisfied with this.

On one hand, it was because Hang Yu had extremely high prestige in the team; on the other hand, Jiang Nan was self-aware.

She knew very well that within the team, her role was the smallest, and most of the time, she was dispensable.

Moreover, since Hang Yu had given her the most precious Skill Stone, how could she dare to expect a portion of the Crystals?

In the Spirit Realm, whether it's equipment or skills, generally only level restrictions exist, and there are no talent restrictions.

Magic Professionals can learn Warrior's skills.

Combat Professionals can also learn Holy Professional skills.

Hang Yu once thought that combat talent equated to profession.

After acquiring a vast amount of experience and memory, he realized that talent is just talent and is completely different from the concept of profession in traditional games.

This game is different from the online games he played before; there is no such concept as a profession.

All skills and equipment are universal.

So where is the difference among the four types of Talented?

Mainly in attribute bonuses and the actual effect of skill use.

For example, adding the same 1 point of strength, if a Combat Professional could receive a 100-pound strength boost, a Magic Professional could only receive a 50-pound strength boost.

This gap is caused by talent influences; different talents have different talent attributes.

Combat Profession is characterized by Strength and Agility, Magic Profession by Intelligence and Spirit, Spiritual Profession by Soul Power and Spiritual Sense, Holy Profession by Divine and Will.

When they acquire these talent attributes, they produce a greater effect than other professions.

Besides the eight attributes with talent bonuses, there are other ordinary attributes like Constitution, Perception, and Endurance that are not enhanced by talent.

Theoretically, a Combat Professional can stack a large amount of Intelligence and Spirit attributes through equipment, learn Magic-type skills, and gain powerful Magic attack capabilities.

A Magic Professional can also theoretically stack Strength, Agility, and Physical attack skills to become a violent warrior, but the cost and price are too high!

The same principle applies to skills.

Hang Yu indeed has Combat talent, but there would be no problem if he wants to learn skills from the Spiritual, Magic, or Holy professions, just that there wouldn't be any talent bonus or attribute enhancements, and the effect would be greatly discounted.

He could very well take the Skill Stone for himself if he wanted to.

Although it might be quite a burden, something is better than nothing; there is always some benefit.

Hang Yu doesn't necessarily have to use it himself.

He could just take the Skill Stone and sell it!

In the end, Hang Yu didn't do this; he still gave the Skill Stone to Jiang Nan, who needed it most and would find it most useful.

A Skill Stone worth more than several pieces of White Equipment combined was allocated to Jiang Nan. Was Hang Yu really selfless? No, of course not. Ultimately, he had his own considerations.

After Jiang Nan acquired the Light Injury Healing skill, she could create much greater value for him.

But Jiang Nan was unaware of this.

The young girl now only thought that the Great God intentionally took care of her, seeing her pitiable lack of skills, and thus gave her the Skill Stone, she was full of gratitude and moved, and her eyes were watery.

......

Hang Yu donned his brand-new equipment: a pair of Gray boots, a White Long Blade, and a White Leather Armor. Even the only pair of Gray boots were of the best Bright Gray quality among Gray equipment, undoubtedly making it impressive equipment at this stage.

Spirit Realm equipment, from a present-world perspective, all contain supernatural power!

The moment Hang Yu donned them, Spiritual Energy coursed through his body like electricity, and he could clearly feel his body being enhanced.

There was a feeling of being reborn.

He felt extremely invigorated, almost as if he could fly.

The "Ancient Forest Hide Armor" added 3 points of Physical Defense, making Hang Yu feel as if he'd suddenly mastered iron palm techniques, his skin and flesh became tough and resilient, making his entire persona more durable and resistant.

Hang Yu also felt significantly improved in reflex and speed.

Because both the Leather Armor and Long Blade each added 1 point of Agility.

After donning these two pieces of equipment, Hang Yu was granted a 2-point Agility attribute bonus, enhancing his reflexes and speed noticeably.

Upon wearing the Goblin Boots, his feet immediately felt lighter.

If without the boots he could run ten meters per second at the fastest, with the "Movement Speed +1" independent effect, he should be able to achieve a speed of eleven meters per second, and with the additional two points of Agility attribute bonus on him, he might even push for twelve meters per second.

This is the benefit provided by equipment!

Immediate, very powerful!

Spirit Realm equipment all contain powerful Spiritual Energy, not only boosting inherent defense and attack attributes but also granting wearers various attributes, greatly enhancing the overall strength of the wearer.

Hang Yu felt his body infused with new power.

At his current level, with the current equipment, along with combat experience... he believed that even if he were to single-handedly challenge a Goblin Warrior, he would have more than a fifty percent chance of winning!

The only gripe is not having found pants, with the lower half still being just big shorts...

Everyone can freely imagine.

He wore an upper-body armor flowing with a faint white light, holding a Long Blade over three feet long, the blade two to three fingers wide, cutting an impressive figure, with exquisite boots on his feet... yet donning large shorts reminiscent of the aesthetics from the caveman era, with thighs and knees still exposed!

The discordance is too strong.

Simply unbearable to look at!

The art style isn't even the same!

The other three started upgrading their equipment.

Spirit Realm equipment doesn't have size restrictions; Spirit Realm materials can transform into Spiritual Energy states. The equipment turns into a Spiritual Energy state upon wearing, instantly adjusting based on body size, ensuring the equipment always fit.

Zhao Ming held a Shield in his left hand and a Wolf Fang Club in his right.

"This Wolf Fang Club is certainly a Bright Gray weapon, my current attack power should be enough to kill a regular goblin in two swings." He was quite satisfied with his new equipment. If it wasn't for being bare-chested and bare-legged beneath the big shorts, he might have actually looked somewhat mighty. "However, in comparison, the shield is much more useful."

"Of course, this Shield not only has very strong Independent Defense but also a decent Defense bonus, significantly enhancing the protection strength of your steel fortress."

Hang Yu paused and continued, "Hmm, I estimate now four or five regular goblins attacking you could be easily managed, allowing you to kill two before they break the Steel Armor's protection, and even the mighty Goblin Warrior can't break the Shield with one ordinary attack; your survival ability has gone up more than just a level."

The Wolf Fang Club and Shield both have Constitution attribute bonuses.

This Constitution attribute is an independent attribute, not enhanced by any talent.

It mainly affects the maximum life, Physical Defense, and stamina.

Zhao Ming gained 2 points of Constitution from equipment, increasing his maximum life by 2 points and Physical Defense by about 1 point at Level 1, also considerably boosting his stamina.

According to Zhao Ming's talent foundation, the higher the life value and defense, the stronger the Shield would be.

"Haha, I feel Boss Zhao is becoming more like an MT!" Zhang Xiaoqiang equipped a White ring and a Spellcasting Staff, "Boss, I feel stronger too, Fireball can at least do several points more damage!"

Jiang Nan changed into a light gray Goblin Priest Robe.

The robe had a rough texture like linen, with lots of strange runes on its surface, and overall it didn't look very appealing. Still, it's better than the dark gray new recruit outfit.

She then used the Skill Stone.

Acquired a brand-new skill.

[Light Injury Healing] (Physician Inheritance Fragment), current skill level 1, Spiritual Qi 0/10, consuming 1 point of Spiritual Power each time, heals the designated target within five meters radius, recovering 2 points of life, cooldown time 4 seconds.

When the healing magic's glow emerged from her hands, Jiang Nan could hardly contain her delight, "Wow, fantastic, thank you, Great God Hang Yu, thank you, everyone, I finally have a skill I can use!"

Hang Yu nodded and said: "Overall, Light Injury Healing is a relatively weak basic skill, but at this stage, it is extremely valuable. Additionally, under the effect of the innate skill 'Dawn Goddess's Covenant,' using this type of beneficial skill will see a significant increase in effect."

Level 1 Light Injury Healing can only recover 2 points of life.

When Jiang Nan uses this skill, she can recover 3 points of life at a time.

The innate skill "Dawn Goddess's Covenant" can enhance beneficial skill effects by 50%.

That's one of the reasons why Hang Yu gave her the Skill Stone, as Jiang Nan's level and skill level increase, this skill's effect will become quite formidable!
