Considering the evolution points he currently had, they were not enough to upgrade a full set of golden equipment covering all eight slots including weapon, ring, clothes, belt, leg guards, hat, necklace, and shoes.
So, Lin Mo only kept three pieces of white base equipment: the magic cloth robe, magic boots, and magic ring.
All the remaining white equipment was burned.
As for weapons, he planned to continue using [World-Shattering · Flowing Light Sword].
Because there were already not enough slots for golden equipment, and swapping this level 1 golden weapon for a level 5 golden weapon would not be worth it.
Moreover, evolved equipment becomes automatically bound, cannot be sold, and even if burned again, the evolution points gained are reduced by half.
"While equipment prices are still high, I'll sell off all the excess green and blue gear first," Saying this, Lin Mo loaded 18 green items, 8 blue items, and 1 purple item, then turned and entered the auction house.
He gave priority to listing the cheaper green gear.
He chose cash transactions.
At a price of 2,000 yuan per piece, he listed ten green items.
One after another, Lin Mo posted anonymous messages in the regional chat channel.
[Anonymous Player: "The auction house has a large number of high-level cheap green gear. Everyone come buy!"]
Less than three hours had passed since the server opened.
Players had deeply realized just how insanely low the drop rate of monsters was.
As a result, at least over 90% of the players on the entire server were still wearing a full set of level 1 white-quality newbie gear.
Level 5 green gear at this moment was naturally a scorching-hot top-tier item.
Very quickly, many players came rushing over after hearing the news.
["Damn! A level 5 green piece for 2,000? I really want to know what genius listed this. Gone broke, huh?"]
["A bit expensive. Can you lower the price? I'll buy it for 200!"]
There were plenty of complaints, insults, and people saying it was too expensive.
But big spenders were everywhere.
Soon, Lin Mo's mailbox started flashing as he began receiving notifications that equipment had been sold.
So while selling equipment, Lin Mo was also evolving his own gear.
Starting from white quality, step by step, he evolved continuously six times, investing a total of 315 equipment evolution points.
[Ding~ Congratulations, you have evolved the level 5 tier 1 white equipment Magic Cloth Robe into golden-quality Enchanted · Holy Light Mage Robe!]
Lin Mo excitedly looked at the level 5 golden equipment in his hand.

"25 points of Constitution. Converted, that's 250 HP."
"One piece of clothing adding 670 HP? Level 5 golden gear. That's insanely strong."
Lin Mo could not help but marvel.
If he had had this robe earlier, with Wind Whistling's A-rank Jade Burn talent, even if it exploded five times, it would not be enough to kill Lin Mo.
Next, full of anticipation, Lin Mo began evolving the second and third pieces of equipment.
Each piece also consumed 315 evolution points.
[Ding~ Congratulations, you have evolved the level 5 tier 1 white equipment Magic Ring into golden-quality Enchanted · Holy Light Mage Ring!]
[Ding~ Congratulations, you have evolved the level 5 tier 1 white equipment Magic Boots into golden-quality Enchanted · Holy Light Mage Boots!]
Facts proved that under the same tier 1 golden quality, Level 5 equipment was much stronger than level 1 equipment.

"This is just ridiculously strong!"
Lin Mo felt that after putting on these three level 5 golden pieces, not only could he solo hidden quests, he could even solo kill the Level 17 boss [Vampire Emperor · Ainogea] who killed him in his previous life.
At this time, he still had 209 evolution points left.
Lin Mo spent 48 of them to evolve the orange-quality [Beginner Pants] he was wearing into golden quality [World-Shattering · Dominator].
Defense increased from 18 to 45.
Additional Constitution increased from 6 to 20.
The damage reduction effect of the damage-reduction special effect surged from 20 to 50.
Whoosh!
With five pieces of golden gear on his body, Lin Mo was instantly bathed in a golden creation-like divine glow.
In his previous life, Lin Mo had lived at the very bottom of Oracle's dark world, like a stinking rat in the sewer, only able to widen his eyes and look up at those big shots.
At this moment, he was enjoying it to the extreme.
"So this is what being strong feels like. It really is even more exhilarating than taking off as a pilot."
After turning off the equipment effects, Lin Mo opened the status panel and took a look.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
The strength you think you have does not count. But when the system itself acknowledges that you are strong, that is truly strong.
"With these stats, I should be able to completely crush that hidden quest, right?"
Just as Lin Mo was thinking this, another piece of good news arrived. The ten green items consigned in the auction house had all been sold.
After deducting the 3% handling fee, 19,400 yuan was credited to Lin Mo's bank card.
So Lin Mo went on to list the remaining eight green items at the same price of 2,000 each.
In another quick round, he sold them for 15,520 yuan.
The remaining eight blue items were priced at 5,000 yuan each.
The one and only purple item was directly priced at 20,000 RMB.
Once equipment reaches blue quality, additional attributes are unlocked.
And once it reaches purple quality, powerful exclusive special effects are unlocked.
Therefore, blue and purple equipment are exactly what big spenders urgently need.
Lin Mo was not worried at all that these prices would not sell.
In addition, there was still one last shelf.
'Perfect timing,' Lin Mo put up the E-rank skill book Poison obtained from the Man-Eating Flower Leader.
Without a single moment of hesitation, he directly set the price at 30,000.
"With so many people in Yunbian Town."
"There's always going to be a few rich suckers who do not lack money, right?"
And those were exactly the people Lin Mo was slaughtering.
Who told Lin Mo that he urgently needed a huge sum of money to recharge and obtain cumulative recharge rewards before Oracle devoured reality three months later?
Lin Mo did a quick calculation.
"I spent a total of 13 gold coins on card draws, which comes out to 130,000 yuan."
"And if all this remaining equipment sells, I can make over 90,000 yuan back. That means this entire set of golden gear only really cost me 40,000 yuan."
If evolved equipment were not bound, at the present time, a single golden piece could easily sell for at least seven figures.
That was not an exaggeration.
Because in his previous life, Lin Mo personally saw someone spend over a million yuan to buy a level 10 golden piece of equipment.
That meant Lin Mo used 40k to trade for several million.
He hit it big.
"After completing this hidden quest in Yunbian Town, I can make another huge profit."
Thinking this, Lin Mo enthusiastically headed toward the target location of the hidden quest [Kill the Wolf King]: the Lv8 to Lv10 Wild Wolf Ridge.
