Virtual World: Conquering the World

Chapter 161: Poison Fang Dagger

The main city's appraiser was much bigger than Sunset City's appraiser.  At the counter, there was a row of appraisers waiting, from apprentices to masters.  A few of them were currently discussing something.

When I went forward, I put the Lich Staff on the counter.  An intermediate level appraiser looked at it and said, "50 gold coins!"

As I had expected, this Silver Staff really wasn't that good.  With a flash of white light, the Lich Staff revealed its true appearance.  It was a staff that had a white skull on it that had a dark glow around it.  Wherever this staff went, there was a cold demonic power that came from it.

[Lich Staff]  (Silver Equipment)

Magic Attack: 220-310

Intelligence: +15

Additional: Killing enemies has a 2% chance of turning the target into a puppet.  This is limited to normal monsters that don't surpass the user's level.  Can be summoned for 120 minutes and has a summon limit of 1.

Required Level: 50

Un, the magic attack had increased slightly and could only be considered a medium grade item among level 50 mage players.  It would still sell for at least 100 gold coins!

Putting the Lich Staff into my inventory, I took out the gold Poison Fang Dagger.  There was a faint blue glow around this golden dagger that was like it was covered in poison.  The handle of the dagger was carved in the shape of a poisonous snake.  It also released a cold energy when one held it.

When I put the Poison Fang Dagger on the table, the intermediate level appraiser was a bit surprised before saying, "500 gold coins!"

I revealed a smile.  It seemed like the grade of the Poison Fang Dagger was much higher than the Lich Staff!

With a flash of gold light, the Poison Fang Dagger's stats jumped out.

[Poison Fang Dagger]  (Gold Equipment)

Attack: 320-380

Agility: +20

Vitality: +18

Additional: Has a certain chance of poisoning the target.  It will reduce the target's attack speed and move speed by 20% for three seconds.

Required Level: 50

I was a bit surprised.  This dagger actually had a max attack power of 380, which was unexpectedly high for a dagger.  After all, the dagger attacked frequently, almost three times faster than the spear and the axe.  The attack power of these three attacks added up would naturally be terrifying!

Putting the dagger away, I headed out and found that there was a conspicuous NPC by the east gate of White Cloud City.  There was a name above their head that said, "White Cloud City Auctioneer"!

Oh?  There was a system auction?

I revealed a smile and immediately went over.  I opened up the system interface and saw that one of the auctions was for equipment.  Opening this, I saw the rules.  It had to be a Gold Item or above, the item would be auctioned once a day after being entrusted to the system!  The auction would be held at 2 every afternoon and would last an hour or until all the items were sold.  The items that were sold would automatically be sent to the warehouse of the winners.

Looking at it, there was a condition for the system's help in auctioning things.  It was that when a player auctioned something, the system would take 20% of the price as a fee!

I couldn't help saying with a surprised voice, "Damn!  20%?  This means that the game developers will be stuffed just with the auction system!  Can it get any darker"

But it made sense when I thought about it.  Moon Monochrome's gaming helmet was state of the art technology, but it was being sold for only 5000 RMB.  They wouldn't be able to recover their cost at all.  Not to mention, Spirit of Grief didn't take a card fee this time, so the game developer's business came from the game.  It was considered a long term strategy.  The reputation as the number one gaming company in the world wasn't in vain!

At least, this method was much smarter than the other gaming companies in the country.  Look at all the pay to win games in the country, selling those dazzling clothes in game and the items needed for each stage of the game.  Un, there was no way to compare these trash games with Spirit of Grief.  There was no deep culture or gaming atmosphere.

After another two sighs, I obediently put the Poison Fang Dagger up on the auction.  Because there was a lowest price of 1000 gold coins on the auction, I pushed it up to five thousand.  The Poison Fang Dagger's stats are so broken, there was no need to worry about no one buying it.  White Cloud City gathered half of the players in China, there were many powerful rich people!

After putting up the Poison Fang Dagger, I looked at the Lich Staff in my inventory.  I was just holding up a space, so it was better to find someone to sell it to!

So I went to the square and shouted, "Level 50 Silver Staff, magic attack 310 and 15 intelligence.  Those friends with mages that have high attack power should buy it quickly!  Opening price, 1000 gold coins!"

To be honest, this 1000 gold coins was a sky high price.  A piece of Silver Equipment wasn't worth that much money.

However, I had underestimated the buying power of the players of White Cloud City.  In less than three seconds, a middle aged magician came over and said with a smile, "Brother, I want this staff.  It was 1000 gold coins?"

I nodded and opened the trade window.  I gave away the Silver Staff while also receiving 1000 gold coins!

I was very satisfied with this.  My harvest tonight wasn't bad and my prestige had increased quite a bit.  The 2500 prestige I received after killing the Lich King brought my prestige up to over 16000.  Moreover, I would get a bunch of prestige and experience after turning in the killing the Lich King quest!

So I headed out the east gate.  When I was about to leave the city, I thought of the Feudal Lord Token that had dropped.  I didn't know what this token was used for, but a special item dropped by a level 80 Dark Gold Boss wouldn't be bad.  I couldn't bring it with me or I would suffer a large loss if it dropped!

So I immediately went to the warehouse and stored the Feudal Lord token away.  Then I noticed the over 80 level 60 Bronze Equipment in my inventory.  They were useless to appraise, so I didn't appraise them because their stats would be too trash.  They wouldn't be worth appraising since I wouldn't get the appraisal fee back after selling them.

Un, I should look for a weapon shop to sell these items!

I thought about it before opening the map and heading to White Cloud City's weapon shop.

The players kept moving in and out of the weapon shop.  There was a large furnace that was right in front of this plain looking weapon shop, spreading out head in all directions.  But that didn't stop the players from entering and picking out their weapons.

I followed the crowd in and when I came to the owner, I opened up the prompt and chose to sell everything.  When I put up the Undead Sword, I sadly found that this level 60 Bronze Item was only worth 3 gold coins!  This meant that I would only sell these weapons in my inventory for 260 gold coins

Damn!  Too much of a waste"  I said in a dissatisfied voice, but I didn't want to sell the equipment that I worked so hard to get for just 240 gold coins.  I would rather toss them out on the street for other players to pick up.  At least I might make the news of Spirit of Grief by doing this!

Thinking of this, I went out the door of the weapon shop and took out an Undead Scepter.  When I was thinking about tossing it, there were two noob magicians watching me with wide eyes on the side, waiting for me to toss it. 

But at this time, I looked over and found that there were several soldiers standing at the military hall on the other side.  One of them had the name "logistics team leader" who was currently looking around.

I thought about it.  Giving it to the logistics team, were there any advantages?

No matter, I'll go over and see!

I put the Undead Scepter back in my inventory and walked over to the NPCs.  After choosing to talk to them, the logistics team leader said in a sorrowful voice, "The four armies of the kingdom are currently holding exercises, but those damn corpse ghosts and liches keep attacking.  We need some good equipment to deal with those damn things, but the White Cloud Mountains have been occupied by the forces of darkness and our miners were turned into skeletons.  Without those iron ores, we can't make any sharp weapons, so we need a batch of good weapons!"

I was filled with a bit of joy.  I immediately took out an Undead Sword and said, "Is this what you need?"

The logistics team leader was filled with great surprise before saying in a pleasantly surprised voice, "God!  Young adventurer, did you take these good weapons from the hands of the forces of darkness?  This is truly great, we need more of these things!"

Then there was a notification: Do you wish to donate the Undead Sword to the royal army?  You will obtain a rich prestige reward!  (Note: The required equipment level is 60 and the lowest grade is Bronze.  Each month, the logistics team needs 100 pieces of equipment!)

I didn't hesitate at all as I clicked confirm and there was a soft sound that rang out.

"Ding~!"

System notification: You have donated the Undead Sword.  You have gained 100 prestige and 10 gold coins!

I was overwhelmed with joy.  Ha, ha, it was actually 10 gold coins, it really was a large harvest.  The 100 prestige was really a rich reward!

I never thought that there was a hidden quest for getting prestige with high level equipment and I had bumped into it.  But it wasn't strange since there were few people with level 60 equipment right now and even those that saw the prompt couldn't do anything.  They couldn't just buy level 60 equipment and sell it, it would be too much of a waste.  Just now, I saw that the equipment shop was selling trash level 60 Bronze Items for 500 gold coins!  This was just too dark!

I was filled with joy as I immediately handed over the level 60 equipment in my inventory one by one.  The heavens really cared for me and the killing monster tonight had really been worth it!

After around ten minutes, I donated all the 85 pieces of level 60 Bronze Equipment.  In the quest prompt, there were still 15 out of the 100 pieces of equipment required!  I had taken most of the quota all by myself!  I would leave the remaining 15 spots to the destined people.  I couldn't be too corrupt, I had earned 8500 prestige from these 85 pieces of equipment.  This kind of prestige gain really was terrifying!

Opening my stats, I found that my prestige was already at 25430.  My current prestige was once again over 20000 and I could create another guild, but what would I make another guild for?  Xue Yue was already becoming famous and I should stay by the side of the Xue Yue girls!

Trading the trash equipment for close to ten thousand prestige, I was feeling very satisfied.  So I went out of the city and in the distance, patrol team leader Wack was currently watching the players kill the corpse eating ghosts.  But it was clear that they had only received the corpse eating ghost quest as the following quest had already been taken by me.  Moreover, it was unique quest, so if the Lich King respawned again, it wouldn't create another new quest and would just be a normal Dark Gold Boss.

When I came forward, I took out the Lich King's disgusting head and put it in front of patrol team leader Wack.  This NPC wasn't afraid of it and happily took the Lich King's head as he burst into laughter, "Adventurer from White Cloud City, I really am shocked by your power.  Ha, ha, this is your reward, I hope that Queen Annie's will will continue with you!"

"Ding~!"

System notification: Congratulations, you have completed the quest [Kill the Lich King]!  You have received 1500000 experience, 2000 gold coins, and 3500 prestige!

Seeing the system rewards, I revealed a wide smile.  As expected of a difficult quest that required killing a Dark Gold Boss.  I suddenly received 2000 gold coins and 3500 prestige!  My prestige had reached 28930, reaching first place on the prestige ranking!

But, the prestige ranking was useless since prestige couldn't be exchanged for money.  Until now, prestige could only be used to make guilds.  I hadn't found another use for prestige, but it was better having more of it.  Perhaps the day that the prestige exploded, the system would give me a beautiful female NPC warrior

Looking at my experience bar, I saw that it was already at level 57 98%.  I would level after killing a few high level monsters.

At this time, after the quest was complete, patrol team leader Wack knitted his brows again.  It was as if there was something bothering him.  I secretly gave a laugh, as if I could see through what was bothering patrol team leader Wack, "His rent increased, his girlfriend ran away, and he can't even eat a bowl of noodles"

But when he talked to me, Wack didn't say this.  He said with a serious look and a resentful voice, "Not long ago, the Silver Moon Alliance launched a counter attack on the forces of darkness and both sides were seriously injured.  As one of the four main cities in the Silver Moon Alliance between the humans and the elves, White Cloud City sent our elite troops out.  It was a pity that with the heavy rain and the muddy roads, many horseshoes of our warhorses were lost.  A horse without a horseshoe is very weak, so we must get more horseshoes!  To the southeast of White Cloud City, there is a workshop by the White Cloud Mountains, but I've heard that this workshop was already surrounded by the undead.  Young warrior, please go to Lost Mist Town and help the soldiers there defeat the terrifying undead!"

"Ding!"

System notification: Do you accept the quest?

I didn't hesitate to click confirm.

"Ding~!"

System notification: You have accepted the quest [Save Lost Mist Town]!  (Current mission difficulty: 540).

Quest details: Head to Lost Mist Town and push back the undead surrounding the town.  Kill 1000 undead and defeat the Undead General!  Bring the Undead General's head back to patrol team leader Wack!
