Divine Machine Camp Repeating Crossbowman Token

The talisman was a piece of equipment, indeed of the summoning type. After Chu Danqing read its attributes, he didn't take it.

Instead, he asked, "What's the awakening limit?"

The other party bluntly said, "It doesn't have a True Spirit."

"Then you'll have to compensate me for the price difference," Chu Danqing said calmly. "Add another thousand Paradise Points."

Chu Danqing now had only 3080 Paradise Points left. He still needed to purchase things and activate some paid Apostle functions.

"Not enough Paradise Points," the other party said casually. "Just five hundred points, no more."

"No, you can pay in kind. I'm not picky, as long as the value is sufficient," Chu Danqing didn't restrict the type this time.

That he could exchange the White Dragon Fish's Roar for something he needed was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The other party thought for a moment and added a consumable item for recovery.

Chu Danqing roughly estimated the value and completed the transaction directly.

[You have sold: White Dragon Fish's Roar, obtained: Divine Machine Camp Repeating Crossbowman Token, Medicated Soup Dumplings ×5, Paradise Points ×500]

After receiving the ma shuo, the other party turned around and left without a word, with no intention of interacting with Chu Danqing at all.

After all, once the other party successfully advanced, they would be a First-Order Dimension Apostle and would no longer appear in the reserve area.

Apostles of different ranks have their own areas and rarely interact, unless they are forming a faction.

Because once an Apostle's rank increases, it causes the value of equipment, items, and consumables that don't match their rank to decrease.

For example, Lesser Fish Marrow Blood of ordinary quality can instantly restore 10% of health in the reserve stage, but for a First-Order Dimension Apostle, it might only be enough to restore 1% of health.

They need consumables of excellent quality to keep up with their strength.

Don't look at Chu Danqing's pile of excellent quality items. In reality, for most reserve Apostles, even ordinary quality items are rare.

Only a small number of people can obtain them through high ratings.

Even if his overall rating didn't have the +1 compensation, a B-grade rating was already in the top 10% of reserve Apostles.

"The duration is a bit low, but excellent-grade equipment is high enough," Chu Danqing was still very satisfied with the Divine Machine Camp Repeating Crossbowman Token.

"With the repeating crossbowman, I have ranged support."

"I was originally thinking of training my own ranged combat, but now that's no longer needed, directly skipped," Chu Danqing had to revise his positioning again.

He had previously positioned himself as a ranged shooter, but now that there was a superior substitute, he could only choose support and healing.

In fact, he knew that he should choose a versatile position, one that could fill any role for a few minutes.

However, he had nothing on hand, so he could only take things one step at a time.

As for the other consumable, the Medicated Soup Dumplings, their recovery effect was good.

[Medicated Soup Dumplings ×5]
[Type: Consumable]
[Quality: Ordinary]
[Effect: Each complete soup dumpling consumed immediately restores 1% of health]

The other party didn't give him five dumplings, but five steamers, with ten dumplings in each steamer.

If he didn't see that he couldn't squeeze any more out of the other party, Chu Danqing definitely wouldn't have taken them.

That person definitely still had Paradise Points on them, but they wouldn't take them out again.

They were saving the Paradise Points to awaken the True Spirit of the White Dragon Fish's Roar; otherwise, why would they buy equipment containing a True Spirit for no reason?

The advantage of the Medicated Soup Dumplings was that they could restore health immediately, but the disadvantage was that the individual recovery was too small.

Only Da Bao's big mouth could eat a whole steamer in one bite during battle. Even if Chu Danqing could stuff ten dumplings into his mouth at once, he would choke.

There were also advantages: they were more flexible when split up.

"Saved another expense."

After seeing off the seller, Chu Danqing took out his notebook and began to review.

Stalling was still stalling; being idle was also being idle. Reviewing the old and learning the new, consolidating his system knowledge, was still very useful.

He was thinking of wandering around, but Da Bao's intelligence level made it too difficult for Da Bao and the customers to watch the stall.

Before long, several more people came to inquire about prices. Most of them were interested in the Wolf Fang Necklace, but Chu Danqing was not satisfied with the prices offered.

There were also people who came for the Regret of the Kin-Eater, but the prices offered didn't meet Chu Danqing's expectations, so the transactions failed.

Chu Danqing wasn't in a rush; as far as he was concerned, he had plenty of time.

Da Bao, on the other hand, was definitely suffering a bit by Chu Danqing's side.

He didn't rely on experience or skill in combat, but on instinct and intuition, so he didn't need to hone anything.

Therefore, Chu Danqing focused on cultivating the quality and quantity of his Blood Rage Power.

Da Bao wasn't very intelligent, so learning was extremely difficult for him. Chu Danqing patiently taught him again and again.

Faced with Da Bao's situation, everything acquired had to be repeated over and over again to achieve mastery through practice.

The combat intuition skill, which stemmed from his Beast Instinct, was also born from a large amount of repetitive practice.

However, it wasn't just about mastery through practice; it also involved grafting Da Bao's original potential, at the cost of his original skill that enhanced bleeding status.

Da Bao clumsily practiced according to Chu Danqing's instructions. His progress was slow, but he was very diligent and didn't slack off in the slightest.

"It's completely different having someone to guide you versus having no one."

"Compared to the Holy Son, my level is just too low to look at," Chu Danqing said self-deprecatingly.

Da Bao grew so quickly in the training room not because Chu Danqing was so amazing, but because the Holy Son had personally taught Chu Danqing how to nurture and cultivate him.

Now that the Holy Son, this Grade A basic skill instructor, was gone, his level immediately returned to what it should be at basic LV5.

"Let's pack up and go back to rest. We'll come back tomorrow," Chu Danqing said, checking the time.

Da Bao also breathed a sigh of relief, finally free from practice. He found the slow progress frustrating as well.

Chu Danqing had noticed this, which was why he said that.

Cultivation should be done with a balance of tension and relaxation.

Being in a constant state of tension would lead to more and more mistakes and would also affect Da Bao's mentality.

Before going back, the two of them also went to buy food, daily necessities, and so on.

Previously, these were provided by the Paradise in the training room, but now that they had left the training room, they had to buy them themselves.

The things they bought were produced and manufactured by the Life Apostles for daily needs. They had no panel stats and provided no buffs, and the prices were very cheap.

They bought a large pile, and it only cost them 80 Paradise Points.

The personal room provided by the Dimension Paradise only had a bed, bedding for one person, and a bathroom. There was nothing else.

He and Da Bao had to stay for another twenty days before entering the Trial World, and it would be difficult to survive without buying supplies.
