Equipment
Let me explain in advance the classification of Destiny Gear levels.
Based on humanity's current understanding of the [Destiny Space] and the equipment and items brought out from within, Destiny Gear is currently divided into five tiers according to its quality and the abilities it grants.
White (Normal Equipment): Provides attack and defense power similar to normal equipment, and also provides an active skill.
Green (Superior Equipment): Increases attack (or elemental attack), increases defense (or resistance), and provides one active or passive skill.
Blue (Superior Equipment): In addition to the features of Green, it provides two active or passive skills (or a greater base bonus).
Purple (Epic Equipment):
Significantly increases base attack or defense (or directly changes the main body's attack pattern; for example, a normal sword swing might attack an extra time, or the attack could damage the soul).
Provides a unique skill (the unique skill is related to the source of Epic Grade Destiny Weapon and its effect is far stronger than the active skills provided by rare and lower-level equipment).
Orange (Legendary Equipment): [Data Missing]
Compared to Han Dong's Golden Finger's ability to control [limb grading], Holy City's grading of Destiny Gear is slightly simpler, with only five levels.
<Physical qualities are classified from low to high as follows:>
Gray (Rough) → White (Common) → Green (Premium) → Blue (Rare) → Purple (Unique) → Pink (Epic) → Gold (Legend) → Dark Gold (Imperial)
... (The above is not included in the word count of this chapter)
Check the equipment.
Han Dong wouldn't deliberately try to harm this Knight Veno, since their relationship might still be useful in the future.
As Vino requested, we will temporarily disregard equipment of superior quality or higher.
Moreover, Han Dong also glanced at the high-quality equipment marked with blue text, which was worth as much as four figures, and the first number was quite large.
Han Dong bypassed the large section of white standard equipment and focused his attention on the green premium equipment section.
After quickly browsing through all the green equipment, Han Dong selected three pieces of equipment that he considered the most suitable for himself.
Destiny Gear - "Von Hunt's Prosthetic Leg"
Type: Inlaid or mounted foot fittings
Quality: Excellent
Basic attributes: Slightly increases leg defense and Movement Speed.
Special effect: The holder can consume [Seed] energy to release the active skill: "Swift Steps" - increases Movement Speed by 100% for 5 seconds.
(After the effect ends, the main body will enter a state of 'fatigue', with all speeds reduced by 30% for 10 seconds).
Source: Relics of the ancient Roman gladiator von Hunt, a special prosthetic leg used to replace his Right Leg after it was bitten off by wild beasts, which helped him achieve the title of 'longest survivor' in the Beast Arena.
Poor Hunter was eventually killed by wild beasts, leaving only his prosthetic leg.
Destiny Gear - "Gryphon Cub's Leather Boots"
Type: Wearable footwear
Quality: Excellent
Basic attribute: Slightly increases Movement Speed.
Special effect: "Gryphon's Wind Aura" - The holder can actively turn the aura effect on or off.
When the aura is activated, the [Seed] energy will be continuously consumed, the Movement Speed boost effect will be doubled, and the stamina consumption during movement will be reduced.
(This is an aura-type effect that consumes very little energy. Based on the seed reserves of a three-star Knight-Errant, this aura effect can be maintained for up to 5 hours.)
Source: The crafting material [Griffin Feather] comes from the griffin cub (with the body and claws of a lion, the head and wings of an eagle) in ancient Akkadian mythology.
These magical feathers were perfectly combined by master leather craftsmen with fine leather materials to create this magical shoe.
Destiny Gear - "Bloodstone Bracelet"
Type: Jewelry
Quality: Excellent
Basic attribute: Slightly increases the individual's maximum health (can be understood as increasing the total amount of blood).
Special Effect: "Blood Activation" - Individuals can activate active skills by consuming [Seed] energy, accelerating blood flow throughout the body and speeding up metabolism.
All speeds are increased by 15% for 7 seconds.
Activating "Blood Activation" once will consume a moderate amount of energy. Activating it multiple times will put the individual into a "weak" state, reducing all speeds by 40% and requiring more than half an hour to recover. Please use it sparingly.
"Von Hunt's Prosthetic Leg" Price: 900 Copper Coin.
"Gryphon Cub's Leather Boots" Price: 1200 Copper Coin
"Bloodstone Bracelet" Price: 1050 Copper Coin.
Actually, of these three pieces of equipment, Han Dong was very optimistic about the cheapest first one.
Its "Swift Steps" ability is quite interesting.
The moment between life and death can be just a few seconds.
Once you can unleash super-fast Movement Speed and escape to Safe Zone, it doesn't matter if you subsequently enter a 10-second 'fatigue state'.
Moreover, Han Dong can freely remove his legs to install this prosthetic leg.
The problem is that this prosthetic leg is just a single piece.
Han Dong was somewhat worried that he would not be able to adapt to or maintain his balance in the early stages after getting a prosthetic leg.
The [Destiny Space] is about to open, and there's simply no time to get used to this prosthetic leg.
As for the bracelet, Han Dong had considered it for a long time.
This equipment enhances speed by activating blood, not just Movement Speed, but also attack speed and reaction speed... This can provide Han Dong with unexpected help in some crucial battles.
The drawbacks are also obvious: each use consumes a moderate amount of Seed Energy, and repeated use will result in a weakened state for 'half an hour,' which can be fatal in the time-sensitive Destiny Space.
Of course, it's fine if you exercise a little restraint.
Ultimately, Han Dong made the optimal choice.
"Knight Veno, choose this pair of boots."
Vino's face twitched slightly as she stared at the 1200 Copper Coin marked on the bottom of the boots.
She was born into nobility, but her proud nature meant that from the day she became Formal Knight, she never asked her family for a single penny.
They rely entirely on the monthly base salary distributed by the Knight Order and the Bounty Mission they take on to earn Copper Coin.
For her, who was just Ordinary Knight, 1200 Copper Coin was First Year of money...
"You really know how to pick! You can even choose the most expensive piece of high-quality, green equipment."
"Haha..." Han Dong could only manage an awkward laugh.
After paying 1200 Copper Coin through the "vault function" of the Clockwork Device, the item was delivered to the private room.
Brown leather ankle boots.
Contrary to expectations, the shoes do not feature an extravagant design with griffin feathers attached to the sides. Instead, the griffin feathers are fused with leather using a certain leather-making technique.
When Han Dong tried on the shoes, the leather tightened and adapted to the size of his feet.
Meanwhile, a faint silver-white feather mark was visible on the outside of the boots, giving Han Dong a feeling of lightness and agility.
The actual effect felt far greater than the described 'slight increase in Movement Speed '.
Han Dong tried to activate the "Gryphon's Wind Aura," and the energy loss in his head was very slow, so he could use it for a long time.
"You made the right choice!"
Han Dong was very satisfied with this choice.
Vino Sylest looked at Han Dong's shoes, her heart bleeding, but she had to pretend to be nonchalant.
"Knight Veno."
"The favor is now paid off. Remember! If anything happens to Fia in the Destiny Space, I'll hold you accountable first."
"...Emmm, I understand." Han Dong could tell that Vino was unhappy because the shoes were quite expensive.
Shopping done.
The two naturally left the Trading Center together.
"Andeva, my friend! You're here too!"
Just as I reached the first floor, a familiar young man's voice came from inside.
It was Cas and his group who used the bounty they received from the previous Ghost Event to purchase some necessary supplies at the Trading Center.
Sylest didn't turn around, and given her ordinary attire, Cas didn't recognize her at first and asked bluntly:
"Is this... your girlfriend?"
After all, a cryptic genius like Han Dong could easily find a 'high-quality' girlfriend.
Sophia, who was standing to the side, froze on the spot, speechless for a moment.
