Celestial Moon!
Time passed very quickly, and twenty-five minutes later, Xia Fei, with the help of Phantom, had picked out fifty-seven of the most valuable items from the list of tens of thousands of items. These items were undoubtedly top-notch, and their prices just happened to be within Xia Fei's acceptable range.
Ye Jingshan had calculated correctly. Xia Fei did not recognize these top-notch equipment, but what he did not know was that Xia Fei had a strange teacher by his side: Phantom.
The Star 90 combat suit is very good. In terms of grade, it's half a grade higher than the Windshade Mark IV, reaching the pinnacle of the Legendary rank. Though its speed increase is slightly inferior to that of the Windshade series, it has a powerful defense. I don't think I need to explain why it needs defense, Phantom said in a deep voice.
Xia Fei nodded. If it was just an assassination, of course the Windshade series was more outstanding, but when it came to a truly arduous battle, especially one that lasted for a long period of time, the defensive capabilities of a combat suit would be crucial.
The year-long battle on Heritage Planet had proven this point very well. A single combat suit was far from enough for a top-notch warrior, especially someone like Xia Fei, who had the ability to assassinate while also having the ability to kill and attack. He would need at least three combat suits to deal with the needs of different tactics. Of course, he would also need to change his weapons accordingly.
Xia Fei currently did not have enough points to exchange for all the equipment, so he could only choose a combat suit to use first. He could not have his cake and eat it too, so Xia Fei would need to make a choice between increasing his speed and having a powerful defense.
If you choose the Star 90 combat suit, you can also pair it with a Wind Spirit Ring to provide a speed bonus. That can be considered a compromise, giving you a decent speed boost while having a powerful defense.
Then there's the weapon system. With your current cultivation, choosing the Polar Light, which is a grade higher than Chasing Light, is more suitable. After all, you're already used to hiding a knife in your sleeve, so it'll be easy for you to use it. You can also add the Concealment Wheel Lock as support to provide long-range combat capabilities.
If I were you, I'd choose these four items. Their grades are high enough, and their prices add up to exactly 98,000 points, which is completely within your range of affordability, Phantom said logically.
Phantom's analysis was very reasonable, considering all the factors. Although this second-rate assassin was not very proficient in his profession, he was still quite accomplished in the fields of pharmacology and equipment.
100,000 Contribution Points might not seem like a lot, but in reality, it wasn't a lot. This was especially true when one was faced with so many top-tier pieces of equipment. Not a single one of these pieces of equipment wasn't of the finest quality, and their prices were even higher. 100,000 Contribution Points could buy a lot of ordinary equipment, but if it was used to purchase top-tier equipment, it would be a bit of a stretch.
After all, Warriors were a money-burning class, and the amount of top-tier equipment a Warrior required could only be described as insane.
Xia Fei's brain was rapidly calculating, but his eyes were fixated on the strange weapon at the bottom of the screen.
This strange weapon was called Celestial Moon. It was a hybrid weapon that looked like the tail of a legendary phoenix. It had a total of 18 circular blades, and its dark gray color gave off a murderous aura.
Celestial Moon was made of Super Kro Alloy. Its thin blade was like a piece of paper, yet it was unimaginably sturdy and sharp. It was tightly connected to each other through a complicated mechanism, and when it wasn't being used, it was like a frisbee that was commonly played on Earth, with a binding system similar to Chasing Light's arm.
When it was activated, the length of Celestial Moon could be chosen through a mechanism. Each blade had a diameter of 15 centimeters and was shaped like a wheel. Releasing three blades would make a strange short blade that was 45 centimeters long, and releasing ten blades would make a chain machete that was 1.5 meters long. If all 18 blades were released, it would become a mountain-splitting machete that was close to three meters long, capable of splitting mountains and seas.
Changing the length of Celestial Moon was not the only function it had. It could also change its form through the mechanical system, allowing the 18 blades to combine at will.
It could attack like a whip, or it could form a shield to defend against the enemy's fiercest attacks. As long as it could be imagined, it could be combined at will. It was definitely a top-notch strange weapon.
Its strangeness was not only reflected in its changes, but also in its crazy form of attack. Aside from the aforementioned functions, Celestial Moon could also disperse its attacks.
With a light press, the 18 blades that were as thin as cicada's wings would immediately detach from the main mechanical structure, turning into 18 individual circular blades that would wildly attack the enemy from all directions, catching them off guard and leaving them with nowhere to hide.
Putting everything else aside, just the strange and ever-changing design of Celestial Moon had already reached the pinnacle of human weapon design. Only the craziest of geniuses would be able to design such a complicated and strange weapon. Furthermore, it was able to use a complex mechanical structure while still maintaining its sturdiness. No matter how one looked at it, it was an incredible weapon.
Phantom followed Xia Fei's gaze and smiled. Why? You still can't let go of this Celestial Moon?
Xia Fei nodded. That's right. I can't think of a weapon more suitable for me than Celestial Moon. It's as if this weapon was tailor-made for me.
Phantom sighed. Though Celestial Moon is great, you won't have any points to exchange for other combat equipment once you choose it.
Xia Fei did not say a word. His expression was solemn. This was a time when his brain needed to make a decision and make a choice.
Making a choice was made up of two words. Taking was very simple, and taking was something that anyone could do.
The key was to give up. Giving up was always the hardest. If you wanted to take one thing, you had to give up the other. When the value of these two things was indistinguishable from each other, the decision to give up or give up would become extremely difficult.
The corner of Xia Fei's lips curled up as he smiled. He took out a Hongtashan from his pocket and lit it, looking very relaxed.
I've decided. I'll choose this Celestial Moon, Xia Fei casually said.
Phantom laughed self-deprecatingly. I've been planning for you for half a day, yet you still ended up choosing Celestial Moon. How should I put it? Even when choosing equipment, you're taking an extreme route. I think you're crazy to the bone.
Do you understand that though choosing Celestial Moon will give you the strongest offensive ability, you'll lose your defense. In terms of overall combat performance, it'll be far inferior to choosing the four equipment combinations I picked out for you. It's like spending the same amount of money to do four things, only to end up doing only one.
You're usually so stingy, so why are you willing to spend all your money on a single weapon today?
Xia Fei smiled. Im not stingy, but there are some things where there is no need to spend money, so I try to save as much as I can, but I wont feel heartache when it comes to spending money at critical moments. Though choosing Celestial Moon means losing the opportunity to obtain other equipment, you'll gain the strongest offensive ability. If you're going to do something, you should do it to the best of your ability. Otherwise, you might as well not do it at all.
Phantom sighed. Xia Fei was a stubborn man. Since he had already chosen Celestial Moon, there was nothing Phantom could say. That was why he simply went back to his little nest and said no more.
Ye Jingshan punctually pushed open the door and entered the office. When he saw the equipment that Xia Fei had singled out on the screen, he was stunned. How could this be? He actually picked out all the most valuable equipment! "
"What did he choose?" Ye Jingshan was puzzled. He returned to his seat and asked Xia Fei, Have you made your choice yet?
Xia Fei nodded, pointing at the murderous Celestial Moon on the screen. "Commander Ye, I wish to exchange for this Celestial Moon."
Ye Jingshan's expression changed drastically. Are you sure you want to spend 105,000 points on this Celestial Moon?
Xia Fei nodded. Yes, but I only have 100,000 points at the moment. Can I use star coins to pay for the remaining 5,000 points?
Hearing that Xia Fei did not have enough points, Ye Jingshan immediately relaxed. Celestial Moon was one of the few Eternal grade weapons in the B-class database. The guild leader before Robert had used this weapon, and after his death, he gifted Celestial Moon to the guild. Because no one knew how to use it, it had been sitting in the guild's warehouse for many years. Its value was definitely immeasurable.
What a joke. How can the guild's contribution points be replaced with star coins? You'd better choose something else, Ye Jingshan said.
Xia Fei furrowed his brows and thought for a moment. Commander Ye, allow me to make a call and borrow some contribution points from old man Qin Mangs. He must have saved up some after all these years in the training camp.
Ye Jingshan panicked. Xia Fei did not know that Qin Mangs was his master, so he would not have a good time if his master found out about this. Now that things had come to this, Ye Jingshan had no choice but to jump into a trap as long as he did not make his master angry.
Hold it! Ye Jingshan gritted his teeth. Theres no need to make the call. Ill jot down the remaining 5,000 points for you first, and you can return it in the future.
Xia Fei was overjoyed. He did not expect Ye Jingshan to be so easy to talk to. Thank you, Commander Ye. Youre truly a good person.
After sending Xia Fei away, Ye Jingshan secretly transferred 5,000 points from his account to the guild's account. He shook his head and muttered to himself, Ive truly suffered a double loss. Master, why did you accept such a scoundrel as a disciple?
Xia Fei was in a great mood after obtaining Celestial Moon, so he sprinted all the way back to the library. The moment he entered the room, he excitedly recounted what had happened to old man Qin Mangs.
Qin Mangs eyes narrowed as he asked suspiciously, You chose Celestial Moon? I recall that Celestial Moon isnt a weapon used by speed ability users. Only a mental ability user can bring out its full potential. You can only bring out forty percent of your combat power at most.
Celestial Moon was a weapon that was full of variations. It could be hard or soft, split or combine. Moreover, the Kro alloy was made specifically for mental ability users, allowing it to maximize the frequency of interaction between the weapon and the brain waves.
A mental ability user would naturally be more adept at using it than a speed ability user, for Celestial Moon's greatest power lay in its scattered attacks. After unleashing the eighteen nonagonal blades of Celestial Moon, one could use their mind to control them to fly around, catching the opponent off guard. That was the way to go.
Speed ability users, on the other hand, could only rely on the variations of its length and softness to attack. Compared to mental ability users, they lacked one of their strongest combat styles.
Xia Fei smiled. Old man, speed ability users are all about flexibility and flexibility in their attacks. Though Celestial Moon isnt as powerful as a control ability user, it can still provide me with a lot of support in my attacks.
Besides, this Celestial Moon is very hard to come by. If I were to use it to exchange for the equipment I need, I will have a greater bargaining chip, right?
Qin Mangs nodded. What Xia Fei said made sense. It was obvious how valuable Celestial Moon was. If there came a day when Xia Fei came across a top-tier weapon that suited him, he could very well use Celestial Moon to exchange for it. Before that, Celestial Moon's varied attacks were still very useful to Xia Fei.
Xia Fei had always been very astute, so Qin Mangs did not have any doubts about him and believed what Xia Feis said.
He took out two handwritten letters and a memory chip from his pocket and handed them to Xia Feis. These are the things I wanted to give you. One of the letters is for an old friend in the capital, and the other is for a disciple of mine in the Black Abyss Star Region. Help me give them to them.
"The memory chip contains some books I've prepared for you. This trip to the Death Trio Star Region will take at least a year and a half. Training and fighting are necessary, but don't forget to read books often. Knowledge is equally important to a warrior."
As for your visa to enter the capital, Ive already applied for it. I reckon that it will be sent to your mailbox in two days. You can enter the capital at will for a year and stay there for seventy-two hours. Thats already the best I can do, Qin Mangs words were sincere and heartfelt, as if he could not bear to see Xia Fei leave.
Xia Fei stored the two letters in his spatial ring before inserting the memory chip into his microcomputer. Xia Fei was stunned when he turned it on.
On the first line of the book, there was a label that said "Introduction to Robot Coding!"
Old man, thats … Xia Fei was shocked.
He never thought that Qin Mangs would have inserted the Introduction to Ancient Robot Coding into the chip. It had to be said that the book was about artificial intelligence, the biggest taboo in the Pan-Human Alliance.
Xia Fei was just about to ask when Qin Mangs hand reached out to stop him. Dont say it. Listen to me.
Xia Fei hurriedly nodded, his expression very serious.
Theres nothing, Qin Mangs said word by word, his two murky eyes flashing with a sly light.
Xia Fei immediately understood. He quietly put away the chip and smiled. Thank you.
Qin Mangs expression was calm as he took a sip of his tea and stroked Old Hei's back.
"Put everything away. After seeing my handwritten letter, the two recipients will treat you as one of their own. If you have any problems, look for them directly. As for those books, read them when you have nothing to do."
Qin Mangs purposely emphasized the word 'read'. His meaning could not be any clearer. He hoped that Xia Fei could learn the things in the Introduction to Robot Coding.
Xia Fei gained a new understanding of old man Qin Mangs mysteriousness. Entering the Pan-Human Alliance capital was an extremely difficult task, yet Qin Mangs had already done it in the time it took to brew a cup of tea. He had even entrusted Xia Fei with someone he trusted. Just this friendship alone was enough to make Xia Fei raise his eyebrows.
Old man, I find you more and more mysterious. Xia Fei joked as he changed Qin Mangs tea.
