Fantasy Westward Journey: Return to 2005

Chapter 2066 New Account Creation, Suddenly a Jack-of-All-Round?
After a while.

Having completed today's daily tasks.

Fang Yun parked the "Sassy Master" account at the inn, chin in hand, deep in thought.

Creating a server-level account is extremely troublesome.

First, there's the equipment.

The Lantingxu server has been extremely popular since its launch.

And that is why this district has an astonishing amount of high-end resources and big names.

So theoretically speaking, it's relatively easy to get top-tier equipment in this area.

But the fact is.

Because there are so many big names involved, the competition for high-end resources at Lantingxu has always been extremely fierce!
Fang Yun didn't feel it so much back in Bianliang City, since he was practically the local tyrant there, controlling most of the high-end resources in the entire region.

Although the Lanting Preface was not located in Bianliang (Kaifeng), it was established very early on.

However, because he didn't personally oversee the later development, his control over this area was clearly not as strong as that over Bianliang City.

Furthermore, after creating the character "Ao Ye" in the Underworld, he didn't create any new characters.

This means that if he wants to start over now, it will definitely be much more troublesome than in Bianliang City, not to mention starting everything from scratch.

Even if the equipment part is sorted out.

He will have to spend a lot of energy on the baby, and that's the most troublesome part.

While farming equipment has a lot of random factors, it's really just a matter of clicking a button. If you get something good, you get it; if not, you just keep trying.

But raising a baby is not that simple.

From the initial selection of embryos to the mid-term synthesis and then to the later skill-adding.

without any exaggeration.

Even someone like Fang Yun, who can hit anything with a single command, wouldn't choose to refine demons if given the choice between farming equipment and refining demons.

This is troublesome, so troublesome.

Not to mention the two major expenses besides equipment and pets.

He also needs to help this account improve its skills and training, as well as optimize various details.

in short.

Even though the current "cool guy" is only half-finished.

However, if we want to build him into a Dragon Palace player with true server-level strength, we need to work harder.

In four words: a long and arduous journey ahead!

"Forget it, let's take one step at a time."

He shook his head, thinking about how he would once again embark on the path of no return—the journey of building a top-tier account for server battles.

Fang Yun couldn't help but sigh, and controlled the arrogant man to start sweeping up goods at various stalls.

At that moment, he wanted 2013 to arrive as quickly as possible, more than anyone else.

As a reborn individual, he knew that he needed to change the current, tedious game landscape.

Launching a brand-new, blockbuster expansion that can reshape the entire game landscape is the only solution.

Besides, he had just acquired a Tang Dynasty character with a super-powerful necklace during his live stream yesterday.

Once the public announcement period is over, he will be able to effortlessly own a future top-tier sacred tree forest!

Having been reborn for so many years, let me tell you the truth.

Fang Yun has really had enough of the existing 12 sects.

Powerful Tang Dynasty, Magical Tang Dynasty, Agile Fangcun, Magical Fangcun, Agile Daughter, Powerful Daughter, Supportive Healer, Magical Healer...

It can be said that he found the most creative ways to utilize each sect he had in his hands.

But no matter how many tricks he comes up with or how fancy his methods are.

With all 12 sects and their various bizarre gameplay styles, there will eventually be a day when he has exhausted them all.

And we've almost reached that stage now.

So even for the sake of a completely new gaming experience, he wanted the new expansion to be released as soon as possible so that he could get excited and develop some crazy gameplay for the new sect.

However, it is too early to say these things now.

There are still at least six months until the new expansion is released.

During the more than six-month hiatus, he not only had to help Pineapple address the lack of core output from the Lantingxu team, but also had to stockpile enough resources to prepare for the launch of the new expansion.

In short, he simply can't stay idle.

While thinking about all sorts of random things, Fang Yun's hands kept moving. Seeing that there were no props he liked on the stall, he simply went to the Treasure Pavilion to download them.

It didn't take long.

He downloaded a bunch of Yuan Shen and Zhan Po with varying prices.

Instead of rushing to forge it, he took out the meteorite iron and began to infinitely transform it.

Actually, the account "Zhuaiye" has a batch of pre-crafted level 160 equipment in its warehouse.

But he still chose to play it on the spot, because he knew very well.

When it comes to farming for equipment, getting the perfect gear in one go is just a dream; the key is to win by quantity!

As one after another of his primordial beings were strengthened by his luck, their attributes gradually reached the required level.

He then stopped what he was doing and took the Battle Spirit to a stall to have it crafted.

After going back and forth like this, he finally managed to stockpile a truckload of 160 unidentified equipment.

"Okay, let's test the waters first."

A truckload of equipment was nothing to Fang Yun, whose appetite had long been spoiled, but he still decided to appraise it first.

He first stored a batch in the warehouse, then quickly obtained the vehicle identification talisman and jogged all the way to Huasheng Temple.

Following the usual procedure, he first lit incense, then opened an appraisal talisman, silently chanting "strengthen luck," and then clicked on a level 160 weapon—

"Identification successful!"

Click the mouse and look at the prompt that pops up on the screen.

Fang Yun ignored it and then clicked on several more appraisal talismans in succession.

All five weapons were subsequently identified.

He then stopped and moved the mouse to check the condition.

【Broken Silence】

Transformed from Pangu's dragon teeth, it is as solid as iron. When it whispers, it becomes wind and rain; when it blows, it becomes thunder and lightning. When it dances, it clangs like the sound of metal. It is the most masculine and masculine thing in the world, and the sight of it makes evil spirits and villains lose their souls.

[Equipment Requirements] Level 160

【Equipped Character】God of Heaven, Tiger-headed Monster

Level: 160, Element: Metal

Damage +601, Accuracy +691
Durability: 1000
Magic Power +41, Constitution -5
Special Effects: Treasure

Physical critical hit chance +0.78%
Manufacturer: Fang's White Enhancement Crafting

"What the hell is this thing?"

I glanced at the attributes of the first Shattered Silence.

He wanted to complain when he saw the high magic attribute of 41 points and the constitution of -5.

Then, the two blue texts, "Treasure Special Effects" and "Physical Critical Hit Chance," will appear in the lower row.

He couldn't hold back any longer and started cursing.

Objectively speaking, this Shattered Silence weapon can't be called rubbish.

A level 160 weapon with full non-dedicated damage has 667, while this Shattered Silence weapon has 601, which is not low.

In addition, it has a magic power bonus of 41 points.

You could say this Shattered Silence might be a little lacking for competitive play, but it's definitely good enough for everyday use.

The problem is, Fang Yun didn't come here to farm daily gear.

If he really wanted to grind daily tasks, wouldn't it be better to just get a full stainless steel outfit?

So for him, this Shattered Silence weapon is simply garbage.

Fortunately, he had anticipated this scene, and after cursing a couple of times, he continued watching.

"???"

As the attributes of the second Shattered Silence appeared before our eyes.

Fang Yun blinked, momentarily stunned—

Not buddy.

I just mentioned stainless steel, how come you're here so soon after?

But even though he was confused, he wasn't completely ignorant of quality.

Compared to the previous one, the attributes of this Shattered Silence are much more reliable.

With an initial damage of 624 plus 31 strength and 24 stamina, its stats surpass those of most physical damage players' weapons.

In addition, it has a stainless steel effect.

It's no exaggeration to say that if this Shattered Silence weapon fell into the hands of a physical damage dealer, it could easily defeat opponents in PvP battles and various quest monsters, making it a true all-rounder!
But the same problem persists.

This Shattered Silence weapon is reliable, but I still can't use it!

"Don't go grinding all day and end up with a bunch of physical weapons, huh?"

The first two items failed to sell, which is not a big deal, but considering that the inventory of this account is already a bit tight.

Fang Yun frowned slightly, worried that he might have come up empty-handed today.

He had already agreed with Pineapple that he would handle the French system, guaranteeing it would be fast and reliable.

He was surprisingly quick; what he agreed on yesterday, he started doing today.

Judging from the current progress, he feels that the situation may not be as optimistic as he had expected.

He picked up his cup, took a sip of tea, and then slowly moved the mouse to check the stats of the other three 160mm guns.

[Killing the Emperor]

In the war between the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor, all the resentment and hatred were directed towards this weapon. After the Yellow Emperor's victory, he used this weapon to offer sacrifices to Heaven and Earth, vowing: If the three realms under my rule are not at peace and the four seas are not tranquil, then all people under Heaven may take this weapon and take my head!

After reviewing the attributes of two consecutive Emperor Slayer weapons, Fang Yun felt like he was about to die.

What the hell is all this nonsense?!

Including the two Shattered Souls he had previously obtained, he has now failed to get a single usable level 160 weapon in four consecutive attempts.

It's normal for four units not to be shipped out.

But don't forget, he used enhanced luck for the entire assessment.

In addition, level 160 equipment has a higher drop rate than lower-level equipment due to its extremely high crafting cost.

Despite having these two buffs stacked on top of each other, he still couldn't get any drops.

That's a bit unreasonable, isn't it?
"Looks like today's going to be a bit dark..."

Realizing that today will most likely be another unfavorable start.

Although he had encountered this situation many times before, Fang Yun still sighed softly and moved the mouse to the last weapon, Emperor Slayer.

Even before checking the attributes of the Emperor-Slaying Weapon, he had already given up in his heart.

After all, he wanted to create a top-tier mage class for server battles.

In his view, a top-tier mage not only needs a powerful and specialized necklace, but also, if possible, a weapon with high damage.

After all, there are more and more powerful pets these days, and the higher your weapon damage, the lower your risk of being instantly killed by a powerful attack.

Not to mention that magic-based classes are also very reliant on weapon damage.

Combining the above two points, we can draw a conclusion—

The French system's pursuit of specialized weapons is also very important!
However, this last Emperor Slayer weapon is not a dedicated weapon, which immediately locks its potential.

But...it has come.

With this simple idea in mind, Fang Yun moved the mouse and slowly landed on the Emperor-Slaying Sword—

[Equipment Requirements] Level 160

[Equipped Character] Divine Soldier, Dragon Prince
Level: 160, Element: Metal

Damage +658, Accuracy +713
Durability: 1000
Constitution +36, Magic Power +36
Special skill: Brilliant Armor

Special effects: Guaranteed hit, exquisite

Spell critical hit chance +0.94%
Manufacturer: Qin Hui (forging)

"What the hell?!"

As the final, fully-equipped attributes of the Emperor-Slaying weapon came into view.

Fang Yun, who was just a second ago muttering that he wouldn't be surprised even if he got a full set of injuries, was stunned for a moment and subconsciously blurted out a phrase from the national essence!

Is this the ultimate weapon for killing emperors?
Superb.

But would you say it's absolutely top-notch?
It feels like it's missing something...

The damage is still a few points short of being maxed out, and the same goes for accuracy.

Even the physical and magical stat bonuses below didn't reach the limit for a level 160 weapon; only the 0.94% spell critical strike chance seemed quite impressive.

But this is a weapon that seems to fall short in every aspect.

Fang Yun couldn't help but utter the phrase "national essence" because he knew very well that the appearance of this thing was enough to shake up the high-end circle of Lantingxu!
Players who frequently farm for equipment know this.

Often, what you fear is not that a certain attribute is not maxed out, but that one attribute is maxed out while other attributes are lagging behind.

This is precisely the daily routine for arms appraisal enthusiasts.

Just like this game where they kill the emperor right now.

It can absolutely maximize damage output.

However, at the same time, one or two of the physical and magical stat bonuses, spell critical strike chance, and special effects in the lower row will likely disappear, or even all of them will disappear!

The same principle applies to attribute bonuses and special effects.

simply put.

This version of Emperor Killer seems to be lacking in every aspect.

But it has a super highlight that other weapons don't have: it has everything you could want!

If we're talking about damage, is there really that much difference between 658 and 667?

Attribute points are needed.

With 36 points in Constitution and 36 points in Magic, the total is 72 points, which is only a hair's breadth away from the limit of 86 points.

As for the bottom row, the Radiant Blessing is guaranteed to hit with three exquisite special skills.

without any exaggeration.

Even a standard weapon, once it has these three blue attributes and a little agility, is enough to sell for the price of abalone!
And what about this Emperor-Slaying Sword?

Its damage output is already very high.

As a result, it also possesses the three blue characters of "Radiant, Guaranteed Win" and "Exquisite".

In addition, there's the last affix: 0.94% chance of a spell critical hit.

how to say……

With this "Killing Emperor" weapon, any wealthy player in the entire Lantingxu server could easily farm it and find one that surpasses it; Fang Yun would be considered the loser!
Yes, that's how confident you are.

The only thing that made him both satisfied and somewhat regretful was...

This Emperor Slayer weapon is absolutely a top-tier artifact for a typical Mage class in PvP.

But for someone accustomed to using high-damage specialized weapons, there was still a lingering sense of resentment...
