Chapter 195: The Silver Cat and the Epic-Grade Weapon
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Yao Shan carefully placed the Dragon Spring Sword back into its box. The maidservant then carried the box to the audience stand and completed the transaction with the middle-aged man who had made the bid earlier.
Note that the maidservants in Treasure Trove Pavilion were all extremely beautiful and had very slender figures.
She was wearing a tight-fitting work uniform, which showed off her graceful figure. The people around her could not take their eyes off her as a result.
The middle-aged man who had won the auction for the Dragon Spring Sword felt really proud too. The sum of money he spent was worth it.
Soon, everyone’s discussion gradually died down.
The auction continued, and the second item was quickly brought forth.
“Everyone, what I have here are the fur, claws, and teeth of a Rank 5 Demonic Silver Cat. These are good materials for making armor. Its fur has an extremely strong defense, while its claws and teeth can also be used to make weapons or accessories with remarkable effects! ”
Opening the box, Yao Shan took out a piece of light silver fur. As he spread it on the display stand, he introduced it.
The audience immediately shifted their attention to the silver fur.
It was about two meters long, and the fine hair on the surface was clearly visible. It was soft and smooth, and one could tell at a glance that it had been well preserved.
Two pairs of claws that were still stained with blood were also very eye-catching. They were bright red, and more than half of them were hidden in the flesh.
However, the exposed parts were extremely sharp and shone with a cold light.
As for the teeth, they were two fangs from the Demonic Silver Cat.
The two fangs were about seven to eight centimeters long, and their surface was dark yellow. One could also vaguely see the blood grooves that buried into them.
The Silver Cat was a demonic species that was difficult to deal with on the battlefield of Ten Thousand Races.
It was called the Silver Cat because its body shape and structure were similar to that of a cat.
However, the Silver Cat from the Demon Clan was comparable to a cow calf in terms of size. It was no different from the tigers and lions of the modern era, but when it came to valiance and destructive power, those big felines would have to retreat.
The Silver Cat was as fast as a cheetah, and its claws and teeth were extremely sharp. Even if one was wearing Premium-grade equipment, one could still possibly sustain serious injury.
In all the major battle zones, there were many records of serious injuries caused by Silver Cats.
Such a demonic animal often appeared on medium-scale battlefields or large-scale battlefields. Every time a space-time rift opened, traces of the Silver Cat could be seen.
While the Silver Cat’s fur, claws, and teeth were not rare, since this one was of Rank 5, it would provide enough strength to fight a five-star cultivator.
If one wanted to kill a Silver Cat without damaging most of its fur, one would need at least two five-star cultivators working together or a six-star cultivator.
As a result, the price of Silver Cat fur was incredibly high.
It was normal for the claws and teeth to be sold for millions.
In a large-scale battle, no more than 10 pieces of Silver Cat fur could be seized. As the saying goes, the rarer something is, the more precious it is. In addition, Silver Cat parts were great for making weapons and equipment, which made their value skyrocket after death.
“I don’t think we need to go into detail about the use of the Silver Cat’s fur, claws, and teeth. Even Treasure Trove Pavilion has no more than three pieces of Silver Cat fur in stock every month. The starting price for this set of Silver Cat fur, claws, and teeth is ¥900,000. If anyone would like to use it to make Premium-grade equipment and weapons, don’t miss it,” Elder Yao Shan explained passionately.
When the surrounding people saw that the Silver Cat’s fur was in such good condition, most of them were tempted.
Among them were a few five-star cultivators and blacksmiths hired by the aristocratic families. There were also a few rich children who wanted to use the fur to make beautiful wool coats.
Several confident audience members in the auction hall began to bid, and the price of the complete Silver Cat set quickly rose from ¥900,000 to ¥1,400,000.
However, Wu Mo was not really interested in these things. He only wanted to buy the graphite powder. If it were not for the fact that the graphite powder had already entered the auction house, he would not even have been interested in participating.
About three minutes later, a wealthy merchant bought the Silver Cat’s fur, claws, and teeth for ¥1,950,000.
That did not mean the others could not offer a higher price.
The Silver Cat’s fur was just not worth a higher price.
Even though it was rare, it was only a Rank 5 monster.
If the price was any higher, they could even buy two Epic-grade Essence Elixirs, so there was no need for more bids.
The middle-aged wealthy merchant paid the bill in front of everyone. Then, he chuckled and placed the fur, claws, and other materials into his suitcase.
The auction continued, but most of the subsequent equipment were of Premium grade.
It was not until the 13th round after more than 40 minutes that a piece of equipment with a dark purple glow appeared.
Wu Mo was curious, and he wanted to see the effects, as well as attributes, of the purple equipment.
Since he already had several hundred thousand points now, losing 100 or 200 more was nothing.
If he had not been in the Research Department all this time and never had a chance to show off in front of others, his points would definitely have exceeded 500,000.
He immediately chose to appraise it.
As he muttered the words in his heart, a dark blue translucent panel immediately appeared before him.
[Beep, beep, beep. The equipment has been successfully identified, and 100 points have been spent. Its attributes are as follows:
[Equipment Type: Crossbow
[Equipment Name: Magnificent Flame Crossbow.
[Equipment Grade: Epic
[System Score: 62 points.
[Equipment Effects: 1. Frozen (The arrow fired has a 50% chance to slow the enemy. If the enemy is slowed again after the deceleration, the frozen effect will be triggered. The frozen effect lasts for one second. The frozen effect can only be triggered once every ten seconds.)
[2. Extreme Flame (The fired bolt has a 50% chance to burn the enemy. If the enemy is burned again, the fire will spread and cause AoE damage to the surrounding area. It lasts for five seconds, and the spread effect can be used twice per minute.)
[3. Ying and Yang (Immune to all damage for two seconds. Cooldown: One day. When this effect is on cooldown, the first two effects will not take effect.)
[Equipment Evaluation: This is an effect that can be produced when facing more enemies. It is more powerful than other Epic weapons and can save lives in critical moments. However, once the third equipment effect is activated, it will enter a vacuum period, and the crossbow will become no different from Ordinary equipment.]
Seeing the information that appeared on the interface, Wu Mo could not help but feel a little surprised.
Although the first two equipment effects of the crossbow were passive, they were quite effective.
Regardless of whether it was freezing or spreading flames, they would be quite effective in actual combat.
The last skill, which granted immunity against damage, shocked Wu Mo even more.
It had such a powerful equipment effect, yet it was only an Epic equipment. It was simply powerful.
