He checked the equipment's stats...
[Silver Wolf King Necklace] Bronze Grade: Attack +25, Critical hit rate +10%, Luck +3, Bonus stats: Strength +10, Agility +8, Required level: 10 [Silver Wolf King Ring] Bronze Grade: HP +100, Attack +30, Attack speed +10%, Bonus stats: Strength +12, Constitution +10, Required level: 10 [Silver Wolf King Belt] Bronze Grade: HP +300, Physical and magic defense +20, Bonus stats: Constitution +10, Bone Root +10, Required level: 10 [Wolf King Helmet] Black Iron Grade: HP +200, Defense +10, Bonus stats: Constitution +6, Required level: 10 [Wolf King Legguards] Black Iron Grade: HP +250, Defense +6, Bonus stats: Constitution +8, Required level: 10 [Wolf King Boots] Black Iron Grade: Speed +24, Defense +5, Bonus stats: Agility +8, Required level: 10
As for the plain equipment, it was all Silver Wolf gear with ten-point stats. There was no need to inspect it. He put the whole lot on the Auction House at 20,000 apiece. No one else had found gear with ten-point stats yet, so it would still sell at that price. He could probably have charged more, but he felt there was no need to fuss over it. He was about to leave the Novice Village anyway, so he might as well give its players a little treat. This Novice Village seemed relatively peaceful; apparently, there hadn't been any large-scale PvP incidents.
All six pieces were snapped up in no time. After fees, another 108,000 landed in his account. That felt great!
He looked over the Bronze and Black Iron equipment. It seemed he could use all of it, though the necklace was a bit wasted on him. Only its eight points of Agility were of much use. What Wu Shaozhen really wanted, however, was the three points of Luck. It was his first time seeing that stat. If his guess was right, it could increase monster drop rates, so he would wear it himself unless someone offered a price he couldn't refuse.
There were two slots each for rings and bracelets, so he could wear two of each. He equipped the ring without having to remove anything. After replacing his belt, helmet, legguards, and boots, Wu Shaozhen's stats underwent another earth-shattering change.

Looking at his current stats, Wu Shaozhen's lips curled into a smile. These stats were off the charts! If he'd had stats like these before fighting the Silver Wolf King, he wouldn't have had to waste those twenty-odd [Instant Recovery Potions]. That was all money! Equipment really did provide huge stat boosts. Once players geared up, they would soon be able to solo monsters themselves.
He took out the Skill Book for a look, and his eyes immediately lit up. This was a skill he could use himself.
[Extreme Speed]: Costs 50 Mana. Immediately grants +50% movement speed and +50% attack speed for 30 seconds. Cooldown: 2 minutes. Usable by all classes.
Well, damn. Both bosses dropped their signature skills. Is this a first-kill perk? Wu Shaozhen wondered.
This skill was quite powerful for him, and he could learn it right now. He immediately gave the mental command to learn it. The Skill Book vanished from his hand, and at the same time, his skill bar finally gained its first and only skill.
Nice, nice. I finally have a skill. He took out the two remaining scrolls to inspect them.
[Damage Immunity Scroll]: Grants a shield that makes the user immune to all damage for 10 seconds. [Luck Scroll]: Increases the user's drop rate by 100% for 30 minutes.
These two are good stuff, too. Better put them away. There was still an egg left, and that was the most important prize of all. Wu Shaozhen took it out, his eyes burning with anticipation. Sure enough, it was just as he had guessed.
[Pet Egg]: Hatches into a Silver Wolf King cub with a random aptitude, up to a maximum of A. (Pet aptitude ranges from D to SSS. Naturally, the higher the aptitude, the better. A pet's bloodline determines its upper limit. For example, this Silver Wolf King Pet Egg can yield an aptitude of A at most.)
Not bad, not bad. I won't hatch it yet. I'll decide once I reach the Main City. Selling it might be a good option, too. My top priority now is Class Change. He was just about to list his replaced equipment on the Auction House when a message from a friend suddenly arrived.
Xue'er: "Do you have any equipment left?"
Wu Shaozhen thought for a moment before replying, "A few pieces." He then sent screenshots of the stats on the replaced equipment he was about to list. Trades between players carried no fees, so as long as her offer wasn't too low, a direct trade would naturally be the better deal.
Meanwhile, Su Muxue's eyes lit up as she looked at the equipment screenshots Wu Shaozhen had sent, especially when she saw a piece of Black Iron Equipment among them. Her main reason for adding Wu Shaozhen as a friend had been to see whether she could buy equipment directly from him. He had just listed six pieces all at once, but she had been a little too slow and hadn't managed to grab a single one. That was why she had messaged him to ask. She had thought everything would already be sold, but he really did have more—and even Black Iron Grade equipment. He truly seemed to have plenty of good equipment on hand.
After some thought, Su Muxue said, "Could you sell them directly to me? Don't worry, I definitely won't shortchange you. I'll pay the market price of 20,000 apiece for the Silver Wolf gear. Would 100,000 for these [Boar King Legguards] work?"
Upon seeing Su Muxue's reply, Wu Shaozhen initiated a remote trade without hesitation and placed all the pieces into it. Her offer was very fair. Although the earlier [Tusk Greatblade] had sold for 120,000, that had been a weapon, and players' average level had been two levels lower back then. That weapon had provided an enormous boost. Now that players had leveled up, the equipment they found already had seven- or eight-point stats, so the relative improvement wasn't as great. An offer of 100,000 for these [Black Wild Boar Legguards] was already very generous. Even at auction, they would probably fetch about the same price, and auctions charged a 15% fee, whereas direct trades between players had none.
Seeing that she had entered 180,000, Wu Shaozhen clicked confirm. Once the trade was complete, the 180,000 went straight into his linked bank account.
"Looks like she's loaded," Wu Shaozhen remarked. She had spent 180,000 on a few pieces of equipment without even blinking.
