Chapter 12 The Importance of Equipment

For example, Naruto, the Konoha team, and most of the players.

None of them realized the importance of equipment.

Level 5, still wearing level 1 white equipment, or even going into battle with nothing but blank equipment, only pursuing level.

I don't want to spend the reward points I earn from hunting pollution sources, so I just leave them piled up in my backpack. Only when I have absolutely no other choice do I reluctantly buy a couple of recovery potions.

Reward points must be circulating.

When applied to players, it becomes a useless source, usable only by those who possess world consciousness.

A full set of white equipment can increase one's strength by nearly two or three times.

Tsunade's green set provides an even more exaggerated boost.

Once the Konoha squad sees the powerful effects of the equipment, they'll definitely be envious and spend all their reward points.

boom.

Ghost Shockwave.

A gray energy beam, as thick as a bowl, pierced precisely into the Ghost Guardian's chest, blasting the monster's body apart.

The dropped item was a human-face-shaped spirit enveloped in a white ball of light.

Asma explained, "The essence of the Ghost Guardian is a guaranteed drop material, and if you're lucky, you might even get a single piece of the Ghost Set."

However, the probability is extremely low.

They hunted down nearly a hundred ghost guards, and only Yakushi Kabuto had a ghost leather boot.

Players like Tsunade, who wear the full Ghostly Armor set, are probably one of a kind in the entire game.

"What amazing skills!"

Unable to resist the temptation, Naruto used his accumulated reward points to purchase a three-piece set in the game's shop.

If you can't afford the whole set, the Ghostly 3-piece set also has set bonuses, just slightly weaker.

1,500 reward points.

This was all his possessions. He originally wanted to buy two B-rank ninjutsu, but changed his mind after seeing Tsunade's terrifying combat power.

After all, this is no ordinary game.

Naruto has tried bringing his skills back to the real world, and of course, equipment can too.

Compared to the boost provided by the Ghost Set, B-rank Ninja Arts suddenly seem less appealing.

When purchasing,

Players have the freedom to choose whether they want to bring the redeemed items into reality or keep them in the game.

Once selected, to achieve seamless transition between the game and reality, you must pay authentication points for the redeemed items.

Only certified items can be freely brought into the real world and the game.

Fang Yi has already earned thousands of reward points through this rule.

Earning reward points from players requires careful consideration of all aspects and a long-term, sustainable approach.

"Haven't you noticed? At the same level, a single Ghost Guardian could take on all of you single-handedly."

Tsunade keenly noticed the key point and said, "The further you go, the stronger the corrupted monsters will become. Without buying equipment, it will be impossible to survive in the game."

Asuma also vaguely sensed this.

However, the cost of purchasing equipment is too high, requiring the use up all the reward points that have been painstakingly accumulated.

If you want to buy a high-quality set like Tsunade's, you even have to apply for a large sum of money from the Hokage.

The key is,

Equipment has level restrictions and is not a one-time investment; it will be replaced after upgrading.

Asuma sighed and said, "I'll discuss this with the Hokage after I log out."

[Server Channel: Deep within the Dead Soul Mountains, traces of the Ghost General have appeared in the castle ruins.]

Introduction: In his previous life, Ghost General was a knight guarding the castle, possessing a powerful physique and fighting spirit. After his death, he was transformed into Ghost General by the Ghost Mage Salina and is a powerful combat force under Salina's command.

Naruto Uzumaki cried out in alarm, "A powerful corrupted monster has spawned!"

Once you become a professional, you will be able to access communication channels.

Every two hours, players can say one sentence in the channel, mostly meaningless chatter. Some players will ask for help, hoping someone can help them level up.

They either ask the mysterious game developers or complain about the low drop rate of equipment.

Occasionally, text resembling announcements will appear.

Last time it was in the Crimson Wasteland, where the vampire baron Klar was spotted.

The players rushed over excitedly, only to be instantly killed by a terrifying vampire with bat wings on its back.

Two hundred players who frequently roamed the Crimson Wasteland had their blood drained in an instant.

As expected, the monster that the game has determined to be the strongest lord of the Crimson Wasteland is not something that players can currently challenge.

However... this ghost general is not considered a lord monster.

Asma thought for a moment and said resolutely, "The castle ruins are very close to us. Let's go and observe them first. If necessary, we can test the strength of the Ghost General with our own lives. If he is too strong, we will retreat."

When the Vampire Baron appeared, some players refused to believe it and revived fifty times but still couldn't break through his defenses.

Asuma could never accept such a meaningless waste.

"Let's go!"

The Konoha squad, along with Tsunade who had just leveled up to level 3 and was wearing a full set of Ghostly Armor, headed in a grand procession into the depths of the Dead Soul Mountain Range.

After a rapid march of half an hour, we arrived at the outside of the castle ruins.

The city walls are mottled and collapsed, the city gates are dilapidated, and even the rivets and iron sheets are rusted. You can vaguely see the overgrown areas inside.

The castle is very large, with a spacious courtyard and farmhouses in addition to the main castle tower.

puff.

Kabuto Yakushi's figure flickered, as if his entire body was hidden in the shadows, and he unleashed a swift and fierce slash.

The back of the neck was cut open.

A fully armed ghost soldier vanished after suffering a fatal attack, leaving only fragments of its armor lying on the ground.

After picking up the materials and putting them in his backpack, Kabuto said with a puzzled look, "These materials dropped by the ghosts should have other uses besides being sold to the shop."

after all,

If the game only had a selling function, there would be no need to differentiate between materials; they could all be converted into reward points.

Fang Yi, behind the screen, nodded slightly upon hearing Yakushi Kabuto's words.

The new feature is not yet available.

Once players have accumulated enough reward points to support mutual trading, life professions will be unlocked.

At that time, these materials such as armor fragments, ghost essence, and gargoyle fragments can be processed and modified using crafting professions to turn them into various potions, consumables, and equipment.

The white-haired loli asked at the opportune moment, "What if players can craft their own equipment, and the equipment in the store can't be sold?"

Fang Yi waved his hand and said, "The equipment in the store is priced unreasonably; it's set too high."

"It's only suitable for early-stage exploration or emergency situations."

"To make equipment more accessible, I will increase the drop rate of equipment. In addition, crafting professions that can produce various items and equipment is also a very important aspect."

He sneered, "Do you really think it's easy to train someone for a living?"

"To develop a crafting profession, you need to consume a lot of materials. The higher the level of the item you want to make, the higher the level of your crafting profession will be. It all depends on the materials you accumulate. Not to mention anything else, the failure rate of crafting items alone is enough to give players a hard time."

"Solo players shouldn't even think about it. Even a major power like Konoha Village probably can't support many high-level casual players."
