Chapter 55: Off-hand Weapon Expansion Card, Creating a Group
After reading it, Zhou Han finally understood.
Why Luo Badao hadn't died immediately.
The reason lay in the special effect of that weapon.
It could negate fatal damage—truly extremely useful.
Even Zhou Han felt tempted by it.
Even more outrageous was that it was actually a diamond-tier weapon.
It could be enhanced seven times, so its effects would definitely be astonishing.
The weapon's attack power itself wasn't very strong.
But its life-saving attribute alone was top-tier.
Right now, Zhou Han didn't lack attack power; what he needed was exactly this kind of survival method.
And of course, the more life-saving methods, the better.
"You really are trash. You don't even know how to use something this good."
"In my hands, it can bring out its true power."
Zhou Han looked at Luo Badao's corpse and mocked.
However, Sword Soul used swords.
If he used blade-type weapons, there would be no attack bonus.
His strength would definitely be greatly reduced.
This immediately put Zhou Han in a bit of a dilemma.
So he didn't enhance the life-saving blade for now.
He decided to ask first if there was any solution.
"System, is there any way to equip two types of weapons at the same time?"
Zhou Han asked tentatively.
After all, he didn't want to give up a life-saving method like the life-saving blade so easily.
[1. Unlock a second class to equip two weapons.]
[2. Use an off-hand weapon expansion card to enable two weapons.]
[3. A special class, Gunblade Warrior, can use two weapons.]
…
Very quickly, the system provided a series of explanations.
Zhou Han's eyes lit up.
"There are actually so many solutions."
He had only asked casually and hadn't expected much.
But now it seemed very promising.
As expected of the system—awesome.
Zhou Han went through them one by one. At his current stage, only the first and second options were somewhat possible.
The others were completely out of reach.
Unlocking a second class or using an off-hand weapon expansion card.
Both of these items could be purchased in the Azure Thunder City shop.
Soon, Zhou Han opened the shop and searched for the two items.
Second Class Card: Price—1,000,000 Soul Crystals.
Off-hand Weapon Expansion Card: Price—300,000 gold.
After seeing the prices, Zhou Han was shocked.
Why were they all so expensive?
As for Soul Crystals, Zhou Han had never even heard of them.
After asking, he learned that they dropped from King-tier bosses.
That was far too distant for him—clearly not something he could obtain now.
With his current strength, he wasn't strong enough to fight King-tier bosses.
As for the second condition—300,000 gold—it was at least achievable.
Right now, he had 30,000 gold in his bag, still quite far from the target.
"For the life-saving blade, it looks like I'll have to earn gold!"
Zhou Han quickly began thinking of ways to make money.
Obviously, relying on grinding monsters alone would be too slow.
It would be best to get some quests or items like gold-doubling cards.
"Zhou Han, what's wrong? You look worried."
After listing the silver equipment in the shop, Han Qinxue walked over and asked curiously.
"I'm short on gold. I need to make money."
"How much?"
"300,000!"
"…"
Han Qinxue was speechless. 300,000 gold—
That was a bit outrageous.
Even after selling so many pieces of equipment today, they had only made a little over 60,000 gold.
"Oh right, list the gold-tier equipment we got today immediately."
"And I have a platinum weapon here—the Blood Slaughter Blade. Put it in the shop and auction it directly."
Zhou Han handed all the equipment to Han Qinxue.
The Blood Slaughter Blade had dropped from the Shadow Demon.
It had been sitting in his inventory for so long he almost forgot about it.
If not for the need for gold this time, he wouldn't have remembered it at all.
Anyway, every bit helped.
The auction function was newly unlocked after the shop upgraded.
[Wanbao Pavilion]
Owner: Zhou Han
Manager: Han Qinxue
Transaction Volume: 60,900
Shop Level: LV5
Visitors: 17.845 million
Listed Items: Gold Equipment x32
Auction: Platinum Weapon—Blood Slaughter Blade (if below 3000 gold, considered unsold)
Regional Ranking: 1
Purchase Area: 17 unread messages
Very quickly, as Han Qinxue sent a message in the public chat,
it caused a huge stir.
Han Qinxue: Platinum-tier weapon Blood Slaughter Blade is being auctioned at Wanbao Pavilion. Everyone come participate—the highest bidder wins.
"Why is Zhou Han's shop managed by Han Qinxue? Are they together or something?"
"I saw two beauties beside Zhou Han. Could one of them be Han Qinxue?"
"That's possible. I'm so jealous of big shots—sleeping with beauties and waking up to rule the world."
"People like us losers can only envy."
…
"I'm just saying, your focus is really strange! Why not pay attention to the platinum weapon?"
"If it sells for under 3000 gold, it's unsold. I only have 300 gold total—how can I afford it?"
"Damn, this Blood Slaughter Blade has a lifesteal effect. That's insanely strong."
"The stats on platinum weapons are amazing, but I'm broke, so I can only watch."
There were simply too many poor players.
The auction of the Blood Slaughter Blade didn't generate much enthusiasm.
A few minutes later, the auction ended.
Fortunately, it wasn't unsold.
The final price was 3200 gold, bought by a player named Gou Tuo.
Zhou Han had some impression of him—a guy with incredible luck.
He often obtained top-tier equipment.
"Still not enough. Too little."
Zhou Han shook his head and looked at the last card.
It emitted a faint golden glow.
"Could it be… it directly dropped an off-hand weapon expansion card for me?"
Zhou Han felt a bit hopeful.
But reality proved he was dreaming.
[Group Card]: After use, you can create a group and invite 10 players to join. User's attack must exceed 5000.
Hmm?
You can even create groups?
"This is actually pretty interesting."
Zhou Han truly didn't expect such an item to exist in the God and Demon Continent.
His attack had already exceeded 5000, so he met the requirement.
Everyone could speak in the public chat.
But there was no group creation function.
With so much information, it was sometimes hard to keep track.
Important messages could easily be missed.
If he used this [Group Card],
everyone could exchange resources and communicate more conveniently.
So this item was indeed quite useful.
Clearly, Luo Badao's attack hadn't reached 5000 before,
so he couldn't use it.
It ended up benefiting Zhou Han instead.
"Enhance it once!"
[Group Card +1]: After use, you can create a group and invite 20 players. User's attack must exceed 3000.
After enhancement, the number of people that could be invited increased.
Zhou Han kept enhancing it repeatedly,
until after the sixth enhancement, it suddenly stopped.
[Group Card +6]: After use, you can create a group. It will forcibly pull in 200 people. Each person must pay 1000 gold as an entry fee to the group leader, and they cannot leave voluntarily.
"Damn, that's so domineering?"
