Puppet Girl

Big Bird Spinning Bar.

"..."

Bai Zhi was speechless as he looked at Fireworks of Romance, who stood before him with her arms crossed and an aloof expression.

To be honest, she is quite beautiful, and coupled with her current aloof and unapproachable demeanor, she does have a bit of a queen-like presence.

The reason why Fireworks of Romance was able to become the leader of a guild and bring so many Sleeping Dragon and Phoenix Chick to her guild was not solely due to her family's influence; her personal Charisma was equally indispensable.

But the problem is... Bai Zhi knows perfectly well that the other person is essentially a goofball.

A beautiful appearance paired with an interesting Soul is certainly one in a million, but the longer you spend time with someone, the easier it is to overlook their good looks...

"Yes, I've arrived."

Bai Zhi nodded solemnly.

"I'm looking for someone. Is your Crafter here? I'm looking for her..."

"So you've finally come to your senses and want to join our guild after all!?"

Before Bai Zhi could finish his sentence, Withered Heart rushed to the Coffee Table with unusual speed, her eyes shining as she asked him a question.

Bai Zhi: "..."

Not only were their actions identical, but their demeanor was exactly the same as that of a certain Guild Master from before... Could it be said that they truly are a fervent admirer of their own Guild Master?

"Uh... I mean..."

Bai Zhi's lips twitched slightly, and just as he was about to explain, his words were once again interrupted by the Young Girl in front of him.

"Guild Master, I guess you could say I was the one who introduced him?"

Turning her head to look at Fireworks of Romance, who stood there with his arms crossed, Withered Heart's gaze was intense.

"He's not as good as Yay, this one costs extra!!"

Bai Zhi: "???"

As far as Bai Zhi knew, this Player Guild currently had six members.

The Guild Master [Team Wipe Engine Fireworks], [Marionette Withered Heart], [Lord of the Five Grains Cycle PrayerUnderDreams], [No Yay ▪ Yay!! ]... As for Divine the remaining two are, Bai Zhi has no idea.

"The Crafter... yes, you've definitely come to the right person!!"

In the Reception Hall, after Bai Zhi explained his purpose, Withered Heart, after a moment of disappointment, perked up again.

"For the sake of our friendship, I can give you a 10.1% discount on this project!! Do you want Equipment or items? Functional or practical? Defensive or offensive? Support or Special? Whatever the Type, I guarantee I can handle it!!"

"9.9% off..."

Rolling his eyes inwardly, Bai Zhi, who was already aware of the other party's greed, didn't say anything. Instead, he took out the Extraordinary Material from his Inventory.

One piece Perfect, three pieces Elite.

"If all these items were crafted into life-saving Type, how many Game Coins would be needed in total?"

"So much?"

Looking at the materials laid out on the Coffee Table in front of her, Withered Heart couldn't help but look up at Bai Zhi with slight surprise.

"Let's estimate the price for the other friends' items together."

Bai Zhi shrugged slightly.

"Okay, wait a moment, let me take a look first."

After thinking for a moment, Withered Heart took out a pair of white Glasses from her pocket and put them on, then picked up the materials on the table one by one.

A white beam of light emanated from the white Glasses and slowly scanned the materials.

"Crafter- specific Equipment...?"

Looking at Withered Heart, who seemed to be doing nothing, Bai Zhi looked thoughtful.

At that moment, he felt his cuff being tugged. When he turned around, he saw that Tong seemed to be trying to hide behind him in fear.

Slightly puzzled, Bai Zhi followed Tong's gaze and saw Yan Fireworks of Romance sitting on the Sofa with her arms crossed and a cold expression.

Hmm... Hitomi was startled by the other person...

To be honest, when they first met, he labeled the other person as the aloof, unapproachable, and difficult to get along with...

Noticing his gaze, Fireworks of Romance solemnly pointed to Withered Heart, who was facing away from her, and then firmly shook another finger in front of her.

Bai Zhi gave an OK sign, understanding the gesture.

Then, relieved, Fireworks of Romance turned her gaze to his side, pointed with a hint of doubt at Tong hiding behind him, and then made a nine with her hand.

After thinking for a moment, Bai Shang made a cross with his hands in front of him, then pointed to himself with his fingers turned backward.

After seeing his actions, Fireworks of Romance nodded in sudden understanding, reached into her pocket, took out a piece of Chocolate and tossed it over, then pointed at Tong with a slightly apologetic expression.

Nodding to indicate that he understood, Bai Zhi glanced at the Chocolate in his hand, then unwrapped the Chocolate he had taken and popped it into his mouth.

Fireworks of Romance: "???"

Bai Zhi casually stuffed the candy wrapper into Tong's hand and gave a serious thumbs-up to the Fireworks of Romance.

Fireworks of Romance: "??????"

"Of the four Extraordinary Material, one Perfect and three Elite. They are most suitable as the main materials for crafting Equipment."

Exhaling, Withered Heart took off the white Glasses she was wearing, looking slightly tired.

"I have a 70% chance of crafting Elite Level Equipment from the three Elite Level Extraordinary Material, but I only have a 10% chance of crafting Perfect Grade Equipment from the Perfect -Level material. The choice is yours."

"10%... is that a really low probability?"

Turning his gaze away from the Fireworks of Romance, Bai Zhi, while munching on his Chocolate, asked with a hint of confusion.

Bai Zhi didn't know what brand of Chocolate the Fireworks of Romance had thrown over; it wasn't very sweet, but it was quite bitter. Bai Zhi thought the taste was alright, not disgusting at all.

"That's for sure, and I guarantee that even if that Calamity Reimu were to use this Extraordinary Material to create it, her chances of successfully crafting a Perfect Grade Equipment would be no more than 30%."

Withered Heart nodded earnestly.

"You don't think you can craft it with just this one material, do you? This is just the main material used to craft Perfect Grade Equipment. All the other additional materials can only be purchased from Special Achievement Store."

"So, according to you, the low success rate is mainly due to a lack of materials?"

Bai Zhi raised an eyebrow slightly.

"The Quality of the materials is not good enough."

Withered Heart shook her head.

"The Quality of materials currently available in Achievement Store is too low. The transition from Elite Grade to Perfect Grade is a qualitative leap, requiring Special materials to fill the gap, and such Special materials have basically never appeared before."

"Is it like this...?"

After thinking for a moment, Bai Zhi took out the [Evolution] Racial Core from his Inventory, which he hadn't had time to attach before.

"How about this material?"
