Fantasy Westward Journey: Return to 2005

Everything is now ready.

If you still can't get a dedicated artifact that satisfies you enough by the end...

Then he would have to consider alternative plans as soon as possible.

I didn’t think much more about it.

He glanced at the equipment in his bag again, but instead of appraising the weapons, he started appraising the other pieces of loose armor.

These armor pieces are also level 160, after all, they've reached the level of Thousand Flames.

If he wants to upgrade his hardware, he can only move towards level 160 equipment.

Take a deep breath.

He moved the mouse, clicked on an appraisal scroll, activated his luck enhancement, and then clicked directly on a level 160 helmet.

"Identification successful!"

Click the mouse and look at the pop-up prompt on the screen.

His expression remained unchanged. He then opened another appraisal talisman and quickly targeted the remaining unidentified pieces of armor.

"Identification successful!"

"Identification successful!"

"Identification successful!"

"..."

The screen was then flooded with a series of notifications indicating successful identification.

The identification process continued until all ten or so pieces of protective gear were completed.

Fang Yun frowned slightly when he saw that none of the items were specially made, and then moved the mouse to check.

【Hun Tian Xuan Huo Helmet】

The helmet worn by the Yellow Emperor during his conquests was invulnerable to swords and spears, water and fire, and could not be approached by plague and evil spirits, which added to his endless fighting spirit.

……

I went through the detailed attributes of these level 160 armor pieces one by one.

Fang Yun's furrowed brows were almost never relaxed.

That's terrible, absolutely terrible!
It should be noted that the batch of 160 armor he prepared this time was not as meticulous as his weapons.

But as a cheater, even with equipment that wasn't put into it much, the character's attributes are still excellent.

But this is a batch of level 160 armor pieces that were identified using excellent elemental attributes and enhanced luck.

In the end, they gave him this pile of junk, which is really bad luck.

Although he never intended to make a comeback with this batch of armor.

But such abysmal drop rates still made him want to curse.

What the hell are you doing with my luck points, you damn system?!

of course.

Objectively speaking, while the attributes of this batch of armor are not top-tier, they are still considered excellent.

Especially in terms of basic attributes, almost none of these armors are lacking.

But here's the thing.

How many people who can afford level 160 equipment only look at the basic attributes?

While this batch of armor included many blue-quality items, almost none of them were usable.

This is what left Fang Yun speechless the most.

Sighed.

He shook his head, too lazy to think about it, and quickly shifted his gaze to the batch of 160 weapons.

The armor in front was just an appetizer. Although the taste of this appetizer was somewhat indescribable, it was not a big deal overall.

Moreover, if we look at it from another angle...

The previous batch of armor did not ship even with the use of Qi Luck enhancement.

According to the law of conservation of fortune, shouldn't the next batch of weapons be of some caliber?

While thinking about all sorts of random things.

He took a deep breath, threw all the appraised armor into his bag, and then rummaged through 10 weapons into his backpack before preparing for today's most important appraisal.

The design of this batch of weapons is half hammer and half axe.

I personally don't have much preference between the 160 hammer and the axe Fang Yun; both are quite imposing, and I'm fine with either one.

After arranging the 10 weapons in their positions, Fang Yun rubbed his hands together, then opened an appraisal talisman and tapped it on the weapons.

"Identification successful!"

"Identification successful!"

"Identification successful!"

"..."

Click it in one go.

Looking at the success notifications that kept popping up on the screen.

Fang Yun's expression this time wasn't as calm as when he was appraising the armor—

Dragon-scaled horse, is that my personal one?!
He could tolerate the fact that none of the many pieces of armor he had upgraded and identified were of the "dedicated" type.

Why is it that when I farm weapons later on, even with the same request for enhancement and identification, I still don't get the exclusive weapon?

This is absolutely going to ruin him completely!

The more you examine something, the more your heart sinks.

The first half of the weapons was almost ready to be identified, but the special notification was slow to appear.

Fang Yun felt like his whole body was going numb!

Just when he thought the first half of the weapons was about to be completely destroyed.

But as the mouse hovered over the last weapon, a notification he had been eagerly awaiting finally popped up—

"Congratulations! This item may become a unique equipment. Unique equipment can only be used by you. Do you want to have it appraised as unique equipment?"

"Damn, we're finally out!"

Looking at the special prompt that suddenly popped up.

Fang Yun, who had been in despair, was slightly taken aback, and then immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that it's out, it's good that it's out.

Without hesitation, I clicked the confirm button.

A notification popped up on the screen indicating successful authentication.

He composed himself, then, too lazy to even look at the non-specialized weapons, moved the mouse directly to check the quality of the level 160 specialized axe—

【Sky-Splitting】

One of Chi You's personal magical weapons, it was made from the bones of four exotic beasts from the Great Wilderness. Shaped like a giant scythe, its blade was tempered with the soul of the Sea Emperor Beast, and it could faintly hiss, splitting the sky and lashing the earth, cutting through the wind and severing the rain.

"Holy crap... not again?!"

soon.

As the complete attributes of this dedicated Skybreaker weapon came into view.

When Fang Yun saw the glaring initial injury of '737', he almost couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood!

It happened again. It clearly exceeded the damage limit, but only by a tiny bit.

What the hell is this useful for?!

He admitted that the overall attributes of this Rift Blade were very strong, except for the initial damage which was slightly beyond the limit.

This Rift of Heaven is arguably 'schizophrenic' in every aspect.

Its dual strength and magic attributes make it difficult to immediately grasp its role.

The guaranteed hit effect and physical critical hit chance seem to be designed specifically for physical attackers.

The problem is, Qianyan is a demon king.

Although this demon king used to play unconventional games quite a bit, wielding a hammer to unleash devastating attacks.

But overall, this axe still cannot serve as a new replacement.

Its initial damage wasn't even as strong as Thousand Flames' original weapon!
Yes, that's how surreal things are.

A level 160 weapon with initial damage exceeding the limit, yet its overall attributes are still inferior to Thousand Flames' original level 150 weapon. That's just unbelievable.

Fang Yun felt like his head was about to explode after his mental state was once again thrown into turmoil.

All the resources I painstakingly accumulated over the years ended up being destroyed, and although I got a weapon with super damage, it's still stuck in the same place.

This was the first time he had ever felt so overwhelmed since his return to normalcy.

Looking at the last 10 unidentified hammers remaining in my bag.

He hesitated for a moment.

All the armor and weapons in front were pulled.

If the last half of the weapons doesn't get delivered soon...

Whether he likes it or not, he'll probably have to use the 150 weapons to the very end.

Of course.

It's not that he's unwilling to use level 150 weapons for life, after all, for a game like Fantasy Westward Journey that focuses on data.

As long as the data is good enough, the level doesn't matter at all.

But here's the thing.

As the most famous family in the world of fantasy.

If he doesn't equip his main players with level 160 gear after the level 160 gear update...

After a while, even a fool would realize that there must be something wrong with those level 150 weapons he had.

Although he can still maintain his mystique.

But once suspicions become widespread, it's only a matter of time before a crisis erupts.

More importantly.

Nowadays, more and more top-tier bosses are joining Fantasy Westward Journey.

As the number of big spenders continues to increase, the limits of various aspects of the game are constantly being broken.

He can certainly maintain his lead thanks to the overpowered 150-specific equipment from the previous version.

But if we stop here...

Sooner or later, his lead will be gradually overtaken.

This was the last thing he wanted to see.

Of course.

With all those level 150 equipment pieces in his possession, each with unique attributes that surpass the limits.

Even ten years from now, the top players in Fantasy Westward Journey will not be able to surpass him in terms of data.

However, in the Martial God Altar, data is not everything.

Once the data from both sides is close, the weight of other winning factors will increase significantly.

In other words.

If we stop here, the invincible myth of the Qiancheng family will be shattered sooner or later!
Fang Yun said he didn't want to be an invincible immortal.

But when this crisis actually occurs...

He still subconsciously wanted to widen the gap again.

There's nothing we can do; that's just human nature, and it can't really be changed by will.

My mind is filled with all sorts of random thoughts.

He didn't stop working, and soon unloaded the last half of the 160mm weapons from the truck.

While Fang Yun was busy with various appraisals...

Little did they know that Pineapple was already dumbfounded!
He certainly heard Fang Yun's sigh, and even saw the look of disappointment on Fang Yun's face several times.

But the question is, why?

From the moment he started appraising until now, the base attributes of both armor and weapons he appraised were so strong that Pineapple almost thought he was hallucinating!
What exactly did Lao Tzu see?
With just a casual refresh, the attributes are almost at their maximum.

Even if the basic attributes are slightly weaker, the bottom row will definitely have blue text.

Although these blue texts are not very practical.

But the sheer number of units shipped out of this thing is astonishing!

Just when Pineapple thought her boss was having a lucky day and even wanted to ask him to help her get a batch of equipment,

But then he saw that the other party had identified a weapon with a damage level of 160 that was so high that he couldn't even understand it!

737 initial damage, 840 accuracy, and it also has double bonuses and blue stats.

Is this still the Fantasy Westward Journey game he knows?!
As a seasoned and highly skilled player in the game, Pineapple has an encyclopedic knowledge of equipment attributes.

And it is precisely because he understands that he is even more clear about it.

This Skybreaker is seriously overpowered!
But this is a weapon whose attributes are severely overpowered in his eyes.

When Fang Yun, who had personally identified it, saw it for the first time, his reaction was to sigh.

He was actually sighing?!
without any exaggeration.

The moment Pineapple heard Fang Yun sigh, she completely froze!
The reason a person sighs is nothing more than disappointment, or rather, the disappointment of dashed hopes.

But here's the thing.

This is a special weapon that is seriously over-the-top no matter how you look at it.

Even if your boss is very demanding, you shouldn't be disappointed, right?
But the fact is he sighed, which made Pineapple start to question the meaning of life on the spot—

He felt that he and Fang Yun were playing completely different games, in every way!

After hesitating for a long time, he couldn't help but ask while Fang Yun was rummaging through the half-cart of weapons, "Um... Boss, that weapon from earlier seemed pretty... pretty powerful, right? But from what I heard, you didn't seem too satisfied?"

"You're not satisfied, what's wrong?"

Upon hearing Pineapple's question, Fang Yun glanced at him and nodded casually.

"no……"

Seeing that he admitted it so openly, Pineapple was completely stumped again.

Not the eldest brother.

If you just admit you're not satisfied like that, how am I supposed to ask you any more questions?

But he couldn't help but ask his question, "But...but when I look at the attributes of that Rift of Heaven, apart from the slightly off-target strength bonus and the somewhat useless physical critical strike stat, it seems to meet Qianyan's needs in all other aspects, right?"

That's right.

In Fang Yun's opinion, this Sky-Splitter was utterly useless, completely worthless and gathering dust in the warehouse.

But from Pineapple's perspective...

Aside from the slightly off-target strength and physical critical hit rate, this Skybreaker weapon is a perfect match for Thousand Flames in every other aspect!
"You don't understand, this thing is really no good."

Faced with Pineapple's question, Fang Yun didn't know how to explain it to him for a moment.

After all, it's a bit difficult to ask a cheater to answer a question from an ordinary player, just like how Qian Xuesen couldn't understand why someone could be 14 years old and still not understand calculus.

Fang Yun didn't know how to explain it to Pineapple.

Why can't such a high-damage weapon like the Skybreaker meet Qianyan's needs?

So in the end, he could only tell the other party that he had specific requirements for Qianyan's graduation weapon, and it couldn't be anything less than that.

Pineapple didn't know what the other party's specific requirements were.

But when he thought about how the other party wasn't even satisfied with that super-damage Skybreaker, he knew that, barring any unforeseen circumstances...

My boss is most likely going to go home empty-handed today.

This left him momentarily speechless, both amused and exasperated.

A super-damage level 160 weapon that can drive all players of Fantasy Westward Journey, whether they are top-tier physical or magical attackers, crazy.

However, in the eyes of their own boss, it didn't even qualify as a backup.

Although he had spent quite a bit of time with Fang Yun.

But the other party continued to challenge his worldview from time to time, opening doors for the most outrageous people, it was outrageous to the extreme!
but.

Although I have a lot to say.

But he knew this wasn't the time to bother his boss, so he asked a few questions and then fell silent. (End of Chapter)
