Chapter 291 Chapter290-Taking Stock of the Loot

After a brief chat with the two guild leaders in the group, John headed to a tavern and found a quiet private booth.

Only now did he have the chance to open his inventory and meticulously inspect the items he'd garnered from the latest quest.

In truth, during the Soul-Devouring Devil Ghana quest, John hadn't gained much.

His main loot came from defeating the Abyssal Malevolence and the Soul-Devouring Serpent in the Soulstone Temple, which dropped a few items.

Although the Abyssal Malevolence was slain by the native NPCs Hills and Balga, its spoils naturally ended up in John's possession.

After all, these NPCs couldn't even see the loot chests.

Why let it go to waste?

As for the Soul-Devouring Serpent, it had met its end squarely at John's hands.

He had procured two items from the chest it had dropped.

However, having been embroiled in the subsequent battle with Ghana, John hadn't gotten around to examining these prizes.

Now, with some leisure time at his disposal, John was ready to assess his loot.

Sipping on his beer, he lightly waved his hand over the table.

His inventory sprang open, revealing five pieces of equipment and items, each emanating a faint glow.

Two were pieces of equipment, while the other three were items.

Perhaps due to the exceptional levels of both the Abyssal Malevolence and the Soul-Devouring Serpent, all five items were of epic-grade or higher.

The faint luminescence radiating from these items signified their undeniable value.

John allowed himself a satisfied smile, savoring his beer.

The initial hint of bitterness was quickly followed by a rich and lingering sweetness.

Activating his Eye of Artemis, the attributes of these items immediately displayed before him:

Blade of Bloodspirit (Epic-Grade Weapon): With one strike, souls are ensnared; with one blood, demons are forged. Only those with a bloodthirsty fervor can wield such a wild weapon...

[Level: Above 280 or requires 450 strength, 200 speed.]

[Class: Assassin, Rogue...]

[Attributes: +240 Attack Power, +12% Movement Speed, +50% Sustained Bleed Damage, +70% Armor Penetration...]

[Inherent Skill 1: Bloodspirit Fusion - Upon activation, infuse the blade with one's own blood, amplifying its ferocity to deal gruesome fatal wounds. Additionally, this reduces the enemy's health regeneration rate, dealing up to 40% true damage...]

John picked up the first piece of equipment, casually fidgeting with it in his hands.

This dagger, named the "Blade of Bloodspirit," boasts a dark red hue, exuding a potent aura of death.

On its edge, a blood-red rune shimmered, lending it a mysterious allure.

According to the attribute details, the blade's base attack was incredibly high.

Coupled with a 12% boost to movement speed, it seemed tailor-made for classes like Assassins and Rogues.

Although only of epic grade, it might fetch a handsome price on the market.

Setting the dagger aside, John's gaze shifted to the next item.

[Robe of Abyss (Legendary Equipment): Woven from special magical materials derived from the inner layers of the abyss. Though nothing else was added during its creation, the innate resilience of these materials gives this robe commendable defensive prowess...]

[Level: Above 280 or requires 240 stamina, 200 willpower.]

[Class: All classes, optimal for those with dark attributes...]

[Attributes: +300 Health, +13% Stamina, +14% Physical Resistance, +10% Magical Resistance, +5% Damage Reduction...]

[Inherent Skill 1: Abyssal Domain (Active Skill) - Upon activation, a protective realm forms within a 500-yard radius, reducing incoming physical and magical damage. It can mitigate up to 50% of the damage and restore health...]

...

John raised an eyebrow subtly.

The second piece of equipment was a black robe named the "Robe of Abyss."

At first glance, this robe seemed ordinary but emanated an eerie energy ripple.

The attributes indicated that the Robe of Abyss was a defensive equipment for all classes.

However, in John's perspective, it seemed ideally suited for long-ranged classes, such as mages.

Although the attribute enhancements weren't astronomical, they were well-balanced.

All in all, it was a decent piece of legendary equipment, certainly above par.

After setting the robe aside, John's attention turned to the remaining three items.

[Resurrection Talisman (Epic Item): A special amulet that, once equipped, allows the player to resurrect at their current location, instantly restoring a certain amount of health...]

...

[Stone of Protection (Legendary Item): Endowed with a mysterious power, the Stone of Protection draws its energy from the stars deep within the cosmos. Possessing both guarding and defending attributes, it's ideal for embedding into armor or accessories to significantly amplify their defensive capabilities...]

[Enhancement Attributes: +400, +10% Elemental Resistance, +20% Physical Defense, +20% Magical Defense...]

[Additional Skill: Eternal Sanctuary (Active Skill) - Each time the bearer is attacked, the Stone of Protection unleashes its mystical power, granting 12% extra overall resistance and possessing a 5% chance to retaliate, dealing physical damage to the assailant. There's also a chance to inflict a lingering damage effect...]

...

[Scroll of Illusions (Epic Item): A peculiar scroll with short-distance teleportation capabilities. It can set coordinates in any mystical places or towns. Once activated, it allows the user to teleport to any preset location... Set Coordinates: 10/10.]

...

After examining the attributes of these three items, John could no longer contain his elation, breaking into a broad grin.

Setting aside the two pieces of equipment for a moment, the properties of these three items were truly rare.

The Resurrection Talisman was almost like granting players a second life.

In the game of Godslayer, when players died, they would only resurrect at the revival pool in towns.

Yet, the Resurrection Talisman had the astounding ability to resurrect players on the spot, which could be a game-changer in battles.

It practically meant players could engage fearlessly in combat without worrying about falling in battle...

Then there was the Stone of Protection - an exceedingly top-tier defensive energy gem. Just being labeled as 'legendary' testified to the Stone's immense value.

Moreover, in the player market of Godslayer, defensive items inherently fetched higher prices than offensive ones.

John felt that solely based on the Stone of Protection, he could potentially auction it off for a nine-figure sum in the market.

However, he had no immediate intention of parting with this energy gem.

Even if he didn't find a use for it, he could always bide his time and sell when the price was right.

For some reason, John had a gut feeling that the prices for such energy gems would only escalate as the game progressed...

His gaze then shifted to the last item, the Scroll of Illusions.

Although it was only of epic-grade, ranking a tier lower than the other two items, it was, paradoxically, the most valuable to John.

The ability to teleport directly to any set coordinate without needing a portal and the capacity to set as many as ten coordinates was simply irresistible.

How could John not be tempted?

The Scroll of Illusions was vastly different from those commonplace Teleport Scrolls.

While the latter could only transport players back to their bound primary town and came with a slew of restrictions—such as players having to be out of combat during its use—the Scroll of Illusions bore none of these frustrating limitations as described in its attribute details.

This item was something John could utilize immediately!

He drained his glass and took to the streets of Silverglow.

Finding a secluded corner, John set the first coordinate for the Scroll of Illusions.

[System Notification: You've used the Scroll of Illusions and set the first coordinate at Silverglow... Remaining coordinates: 9/10]

...

Subsequently, John made his way to the entrance of the Dawn Breeze Auction House.

Having prearranged his visit with Isabella, she awaited him directly at the entrance.

The moment she spotted John, her face lit up with a radiant smile.

"Mr. Galewind, it's been quite a while!"

John responded with a light chuckle, "Indeed, it's been some time. I've been rather busy lately..."

Under Isabella's guidance, the two navigated familiarly to the third floor of the Dawn Breeze Auction House.

In the serene and elegant private chamber, Isabella expertly pulled out a chair for John.

Only after he settled down did she gracefully take a seat opposite him.

The long table was set with a variety of utensils.

As Isabella mixed a drink for John, she inquired with a playful grin, "Mr. Galewind, are you here to auction off something at our establishment?"

John took his time, observing the woman before him.

Her form-fitting long dress accentuated her curvaceous silhouette perfectly.

Combined with her exquisite features, she exuded an allure of mature charm.

With a radiant smile on his face, John teased, "It's only been a few days, and yet Miss Isabella seems to have become even more beautiful..."

Isabella responded with a reserved smile, jesting, "Mr. Galewind's flattery is growing even sweeter by the day." With that, she slid a freshly prepared juice towards John. "I recently acquired this crafting skill. My mentor says it's quite delightful. I hope Mr. Galewind will give it a try..."
