"Speaking of which, Xiaowen, your fame in the Plane of Existence is really climbing. It's almost 8,000 points now?" Li Shuyi said.
Qiao Rui also noticed this amazing value, "This is the first time I've seen such a high fame."
"That's not an exaggeration. Based on what we did in the Aaron Plane World, everything we did was quite amazing," Bai Xiaowen said with a smile. "We helped the Resistance Army to occupy Northshire City, which is the capital of the Northern Region. It can be said that we directly changed the situation in the Northern Region. Later on, we destroyed a complete neutral force. Although it was only a small force, it represented the starting point of the Death Kingdom in Aaron's Northern Region. In the future, I'm afraid that we will be included in all kinds of history books, epics, and poems in the Aaron World. "
"It's a pity that the scavenger mission doesn't count fame. Otherwise, Xiaowen's fame would exceed 10,000 points and he would be able to get an S-class title." Li Shuyi said with a little regret.
Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, "There's nothing to regret. Our harvest this time is already great enough. Next, we just need to consolidate and convert it into strength. The overall strength of our team will be improved by leaps and bounds. It's not impossible for us to challenge a Lord."
In particular, witnessing the birth of a Lord from nothing was very helpful to Bai Xiaowen. Originally, there was only one exception, and Bai Xiaowen could not figure out the bottom line of a Lord's strength in the ordinary sense. Now that he had Gloria as a reference, he had more confidence.
Of course, challenging a Lord was not that simple. The kind of method of breaking in and directly killing a Lord was not realistic at all. Lords basically had a huge force of influence, and there were very few commanders who fought alone. To challenge a Lord, a proper plan must be made.
As a member of the White Phoenix team and not the leader, and as it was his first time entering Aaron, Li Shuyi's fame in the world was much lower. He only had 2,692 points, which was a few hundred points short of reaching the A-class threshold.
Li Shuyi's B-class title was called "Cataclysm Pioneer". The passive effect was to increase the favorability of undead and ghost creatures by one level, but there was an additional restriction: when the favorability of the other party was above that of an acquaintance, the Cataclysm Pioneer's favorability enhancement effect would be ineffective.
Of course, there was also a negative effect of reducing the favorability of living creatures by one level.
In addition, the "Cataclysm Pioneer" increased the damage to living creatures by 8%, and the damage it received from living creatures. This additional effect was of little value, because Li Shuyi was a melee fighter with brittle skin, so increasing her vulnerability to damage was rather unfriendly. Moreover, the 15% damage increase from the title "Leader Hunter" that she currently wore was much more practical than this title.
Qiao Rui joined in the middle and late stages of the game, which was equivalent to only completing one Lord-level mission with the team. The Reputation she received was even lower, only 1886 points. However, she reached the B-level standard and received the title "Cataclysm Conjurer".
[Cataclysm Cursemancer: The duration of all negative statuses and abnormal effects that you inflict on living beings is extended by 20% to a minimum of 1 second. . The duration of all negative statuses and abnormal effects imposed on you by living creatures is increased by 20%, with a minimum of one second.]
This title was obviously obtained because Qiao Rui played the role of a pied piper in most of the intense boss battles, weakening the opponent. For Qiao Rui, this was a very practical title.
Qiao Rui's main focus was the weakening effect of the Soul Rhythm. Extending the duration was like adding wings to a tiger. As for the negative effects, they were basically negligible in the exploration of the spirit world. Not to mention how many control methods the target enemy had, even if there were, Bai Xiaowen's insight could see through them in advance and make appropriate responses.
Next was the equipment strengthening.
"For this strengthening, the focus is on Shuyi's equipment. Because she will soon face the hero trial alone, we must allocate the corresponding resources. Our team now has 340,000 points of psionic energy … "
Qiao Rui raised his hand and said, "Let me interrupt … Since I've become an official member, the resources I have should belong to the team and be allocated by the team leader. The psionic energy points in my personal account will be allocated to the team as a shared resource. "
"That's too embarrassing." Li Shuyi blushed. Bai Xiaowen had just proposed to strengthen her equipment, and Qiao Rui wanted to take out his personal savings. Li Shuyi was a little touched.
Bai Xiaowen did not stop him.
Qiao Rui smiled and then silently said something.
Bai Xiaowen received a notification from the rules of the spirit world.
"Awakened Qiao Rui has given you 420,000 points of psionic energy."
"Huh? So much?! " Bai Xiaowen was a little stunned. He had thought that Qiao Rui had at most 100,000 points of psionic energy. He did not expect that he had more than 400,000 points!
Qiao Rui smiled and said, "My family has a Founding Team Fund. I just graduated from university, so I took my share in one go."
Bai Xiaowen understood. For a big family like the Qiao family, it was normal to set up a Founding Team Fund for the younger generation with potential. It was the same principle as a business family setting up a Founding Team Fund for the younger generation. 420,000 points of psionic energy might seem a lot, but for a family with a strong foundation, it was not a big number.
What Bai Xiaowen could not figure out was why Qiao Rui trusted him so much. He could not figure it out even if he racked his brains. He could only attribute it to his personal charm (o (^ ▽ ^) o) and Qiao Rui's eye for people.
Qiao Rui was indeed very generous in this matter. Based on this alone, her position in the White Phoenix team had been stabilized.
In fact, Bai Xiaowen still had a sum of psionic energy points deposited with Li Beihai. It was the quarterly revenue of the "Big Knife Kills Many" shop. Bai Xiaowen did not know the exact number, but judging from some of the accounts he had seen before, the quarterly revenue of the shop would not be less than 500,000 psionic energy points.
Therefore, Bai Xiaowen accepted Qiao Rui's "investment" of 420,000 psionic energy points. A man could only be tough when he had money.
Bai Xiaowen then listed out the equipment that needed to be strengthened.
Bai Xiaowen's two backup weapons were the Double Fangs and the Winter Wand. The Double Fangs Staff did not meet the equipment requirements for the time being, so it was put aside for now. As a weapon, the Winter Wand needed to be upgraded to Level 6.
Qiao Rui put on the new Beast Spirit Cloak and prepared to strengthen it to Level 4. Li Shuyi was a little apologetic about this, but there was no need for the cloak to be upgraded to Level 5. It was enough to upgrade it to Level 4 and strive for a strengthening effect.
Finally, it was Li Shuyi's turn. Her Bone Tooth Necklace, accessory, the Blood Lord's Coat of Arms, and her off-hand Gold equipment, the Rebel Commander's Sword, all needed to be strengthened. In addition, the team also had a Four-Star Equipment Enhancement Card, which also needed to be used on Li Shuyi. It could upgrade a piece of equipment to Level 7. The key was which equipment to use it on.
"The Bone Tooth Necklace's position is to make up for the lack of basic attributes, so it can be eliminated first. The accessory increases temporary explosive power, and the Gold weapon increases continuous output. I think in comparison, it's better to strengthen explosive power, "Bai Xiaowen said.
Li Shuyi nodded. "Then I'll start."
Li Shuyi chose to strengthen them one by one.
The Bone Tooth Necklace was upgraded to Level 4. There were no additional special effects, but the additional skill, Bone Tooth Collector, increased to a maximum of (6) free attribute points, which was equivalent to an additional attribute point that could be freely distributed. It was not bad.
The Rebel Commander's Sword was upgraded to Level 6. Its additional attack power increased by 60%, to 16 to 32 points. It was also worth mentioning that at Level 4, there was a random "Armor Break" special effect!
[Armor Break: Passive, (Rebel Commander's Sword) Every successful hit reduces the target's armor by 5%. Stacks up to 4 times.]
There was no doubt that this was a special effect for fighting Bosses. The Armor Break attribute had always been the favorite of the Awakened Kitchen Knife. After stacking up to the maximum, it could reduce the target's armor by 20%. It was not bad, but the problem was that this sword needed to hit the target four times to stack up to the maximum.
Bai Xiaowen thought for a moment and said, "Shuyi, you can equip this sword on your main hand."
When dual-wielding a single-handed weapon and activating a melee physical skill, it was usually done with the main hand weapon (usually the right hand).
Li Shuyi placed the sword with the armor-piercing special effect in her main hand and the Red Leaf Lord's Glorious Longsword in her secondary hand. When she activated [Combo Slash], she would instantly attack the target three times. Combined with the initial attack, she could easily stack up to four times of armor-piercing, fully displaying the new special effect of this equipment.
Moreover, putting the Red Leaf Sword in her secondary hand did not affect the activation of the Blood Drain skill.
The last item to be strengthened was the accessory, the Blood Monarch's Coat of Arms. After Li Shuyi strengthened it to + 6, she used a four-star Enhancement Card and a high-grade psionic crystal to push the success rate to 100% and succeeded in one try.
The Blood Monarch's Coat of Arms was strengthened to + 7, and the inherent movement speed bonus was increased to 17%. The additional movement speed after activating the Monarch's Wrath to kill the enemy was also increased by 17%. She was really moving like a crazy rabbit. In addition, the initial duration of the Monarch's Wrath was increased to 17 seconds, and the subsequent duration increased to 51 seconds after killing the enemy! The cooldown was reduced to 15 hours and 40 minutes.
Other than that, there were the + 4 and + 7 special effects, which were Sharp Claws and Frenzy respectively.
[Sharp Claws: LV4 Special Effect, Passive, During the duration of the Monarch's Wrath, your total attack power is increased by 15%.]
[Frenzy: LV7 Special Effect, Passive, During the duration of the Monarch's Wrath, Blood Drain will cause you to enter a frenzied state, increasing your attack speed and critical hit rate by 15% for 5 seconds.]
Whether it was Sharp Claws or Frenzy, they were both excellent special effects. In particular, the Sharp Claws Special Effect should not be underestimated. It did not increase "additional attack power" but "total attack power"! In other words, the attack power converted by Li Shuyi's own strength was also taken into account. This was very important.
After Li Shuyi finished strengthening, Bai Xiaowen and Qiao Rui also completed strengthening their equipment.
Qiao Rui's Beast Spirit Cloak was strengthened to + 4 without any additional special effects. However, a new description was added to the original skill, "Mystical Tortoise's Shelter". During the duration of the Mystical Tortoise's Shelter, the wearer would recover 3% of their maximum HP with every attack (regardless of whether it was a physical or magical attack).
In comparison, this new description was a little useless. After all, Qiao Rui's attack speed was not his forte.
"What a pity. If this cloak was used by Junior, it would be able to maximize its effect," Qiao Rui said.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and shook his head. "No, her original Radiant Cloak is not bad. It has an additional AoE Blindness. This skill has not been used yet because our team does not lack crowd control. Perhaps it will be useful when she faces the Trial of Heroes alone. Also, I have prepared a cloak for her as a backup … "
Bai Xiaowen took out the "Dirty Shroud".
"Ugh … this cloak is so ugly." Li Shuyi looked at it with disdain.
Indeed, compared to the high-end and classy Radiant Cloak, the Dirty Shroud was really ugly. It was gray and dull and felt like a greasy oilcloth.
Being strong was a temporary thing, but being handsome was a lifelong thing …
Bai Xiaowen shook his head. "Take it. This cloak can deflect 40% of physical damage to your back. If you encounter a group battle, you can use your Lifesteal to kill the boss while the minions behind you deal damage. If worst comes to worst, you can swap it out when you return to the team. "
This Dirty Shroud was a Gold-grade equipment. Bai Xiaowen intended to give it to Li Shuyi as a one-time item … He was rich and capricious. He did not lack the tens of thousands of Psionic Energy points from selling equipment.
As usual, Li Shuyi was convinced by Bai Xiaowen's words and silently took the ugly cloak.
Bai Xiaowen had only upgraded the Cold Winter Wand. He was a little curious. As a Gold-grade equipment for Mages, would the physical attack power of this equipment increase by a percentage when it was upgraded? If so, it would be too useless. Mages would not rush up and hit people with their wands … especially when the initial attack power of this wand was only 1 to 3 …
Obviously, this was not the case. When the Cold Winter Wand was upgraded, it increased "Spell Damage Bonus"!
For every level up of a Gold-grade wand, the spellcaster's Spell Damage Bonus would increase by 3%. Bai Xiaowen upgraded the wand to Lv 6, which gave him a full 18% Spell Damage Bonus.
Mages were indeed powerful. They could adjust the trajectory of their spells with Cogitation, increase the Spell Damage Bonus, and increase the Spell Damage Bonus when the wand was upgraded! In addition, most spells had a high initial damage (with the exception of basic spells). When combined with the bonus of Spirit, it was normal for one to cripple the opponent with one or kill the opponent with two skills.
The Cold Winter Wand's Lv 4 special effect also appeared. It was called "Multiple Shards".
[Multiple Shards: You can cast three Frost Shards at once. However, the Frost Shards skill has a cooldown time of 15 seconds and the cost of Spirit is increased to 6. The cooldown time of the Multiple Shards skill is 15 minutes.]
Casting three Frost Shards at once was equivalent to tripling the explosive power, which was equivalent to an independent combat spell. However, the Spirit was also tripled, from 2 to 6. Moreover, the cooldown time of the Frost Shards, which was originally 1.5 seconds, was now 15 seconds, which was ten times longer.
Despite these limitations, Multiple Shards was still an excellent enhancement effect. Bai Xiaowen finally understood how Mage Kevin's machine-gun-like Frost Shards came about …
