Finally arriving at Fang City, the magical beasts nearby the city had beco fewer and fewer, to the point they vanished completely at the city’s edge.
The Beastman’s city was completely different from a typical city, built with large blocks of stone, and devoid of any magical defenses, making it appear like any ordinary city.
But Du You knew this city was anything but simple; believing it to be ordinary would be idiotic.
Du You opened his panel, and the temporary quests for hunting the Iron-armored Lizards had been completed. However, the completion rate wasn’t high, because he hadn’t driven the Iron-armored Lizards to extinction, so the rewards were scant.
Beyond five thousand yellow Crystal Coins, there was only a schematic.
Defensive Building Upgrade Schematic: Can upgrade a defensive building schematic, up to a maximum of tier four.
He had to admit, this was also a good item. At the very least, it allowed for the enhancent of his own city walls or Arrow Towers. But it could only be used upon returning to his domain; it wasn’t sothing that could be used just anywhere.
On the road, it was a good ti to consider how to make use of it. Accompanied by three others, Du You walked towards the city.
On the way, when the Wolf Cavalry saw Du You, they would quickly approach, but upon clear recognition, they would promptly perform a special gesture of respect. Indeed, those teeth adorning Du You were quite intimidating.
The teeth from the Iron-armored Lizard might not be recognized elsewhere, but how could these nearby Wolf Cavalry not recognize them? These were from the Iron-armored Lizard, and so fresh.
How many Iron-armored Lizards must one kill to don such teeth? This was not soone they could afford to offend.
Du You nodded casually in response; his identity was different now.
These were the rituals Elsa had taught Du You; otherwise, he would’ve been clueless about their aning. Because of these adornnts, Du You and his companions entered the Wolfn’s Fang City with ease.
But not long after entering the city, Lin Yushi suddenly looked at her wrist with surprise. "No way, can this work too?"
"What happened?" Du You asked softly, turning around when he saw Lin Yushi’s surprised expression.
"Just now, my Flowing Wave Armguard appears to have turned into upgrade material."
Du You’s eyes widened, "How is that possible, can that even beco upgrade material?" This was truly unbelievable; the Flowing Wave Armguard was a piece of equipnt on Lin Yushi, and moreover, loot gathered from a drop.
Lin Yucha pondered for a mont before looking up and saying, "Perhaps it really can. There are two main prerequisites for forming upgrade materials: one is strength above tier four, and the other is the celebrity effect. Our strength is sufficient now, and having these teeth made us celebrities as soon as we entered the city, attracting a lot of attention. Additionally, in our own territory, we have many people, including natives and civilians we’ve recruited, so both conditions are t."
"Now whether it can beco our own upgrade material, there’s only one possibility, and that is compatibility. Perhaps the equipnt on others also has this capability, but it’s not compatible enough, so it went unnoticed."
Du You’s gaze grew solemn: "I suspect many have already discovered this, they just haven’t disclosed it. After all, those who did would want to keep this secret for their own use."
Du You speculated that the major forces probably use this thod to upgrade the abilities of so people with old equipnt, and no doubt the talents cultivated would be nurous.
This was also a source of upgrade materials for the major forces. Of course, so equipnt was too valuable to sacrifice. The Flowing Wave Armguard, being a tier three equipnt, was sothing Du You decided to use without hesitation.
Of course, even yellow equipnt, if it wasn’t a main piece of combat gear, would be rcilessly dissolved by Du You. In his eyes, one’s own strength was always of much greater importance than the additional strength provided by equipnt.
"No matter, keep it on for now, we’ll just use it when we get back," he said.
Green equipnt was no longer of much help to them. As for all-around defenses, they beca less necessary after tier four.
Because Du You had discovered that after tier four, he himself had a layer of special energy protection. This protection wasn’t much use in battle but was extraordinarily effective against external disturbances like dust and insect nuisances.
Hence, all-encompassing defensive equipnt was of much less efficacy for those, like him, who were tier four Professionals and above. As one’s strength grew, their dependence on external items naturally waned.
Without changing their equipnt, the trio continued to move forward. The Beastman’s city was so carefree — you could see fights in the streets, with the only prohibition against killing. There were even so sleeping by the roadside.
People relieving themselves publicly were common sights, making it a bit hard to adjust to. "So this is a Beastman city, huh? Feels just like a pigsty. Don’t people worry about getting sick in such a place?"
"That’s why I keep saying, our Beastman systems are flawed and need reform, but they just won’t listen," said Elsa, spreading her hands like an adult, though her facial expressions were hidden, so the cuteness was not apparent.
"Alright, stop complaining for a bit, look over there, you’ve got a wanted poster," said Du You, pointing to a wall covered with wanted posters, one of which was Elsa’s. Elsa’s portrait wasn’t quite accurate; it only described her as the White Fox with information about her age and abilities.
"Hmph, it must have been those people ddling again, constantly fighting among ourselves," Elsa said, suppressing the anger in her heart. Du You also noted the wanted poster; it was rather fierce, calling for her capture dead or alive. This indicated that the Fox People had completely given up on Elsa.
Seeing this, Elsa completely let go of the idea of returning. Although she had held so hope, from now on, she decided to stick with Du You, the human. He wasn’t as bad as the rumors made him seem. As a Fox Person with independent thought, Elsa was unlike others who simply echoed the masses.
The group wandered aimlessly around, with many things in the city related to heroes. Unfortunately, they hadn’t discovered anything useful to themselves until they reached a corner.
"What is that?" Du You suddenly pointed to so fragnts in the distance.
"Oh, those? I rember now, that’s from the peace agreent signed between the Barbarian Kingdom and the Divine Fla Empire. Later, it was said that the humans broke the agreent first, so the agreent was smashed. The ruins have been here ever since," Elsa explained.
Elsa’s words revealed to Du You the true identity of those shattered stones.
