Some recipes come with a very detailed description. The finished product will not be exactly as stated. They often come with random increases in connotation. Samples may come with really amazing attributes, or absolute nonsense. After all, Jiang Fei was confident about his Recipe. The ring gave him a 100% chance to add extra skills! Such equipment would be extremely valuable! This recipe is unlikely to produce anything bad!
Using whatever gold coins were left in his inventory, Jiang Fei went and scoured the market for materials. Just as he was about to head to the Iron Man's Workshop and start working with the miracle ring, the trio he knew called out to him.
“Yo! Bad boy! Looks like you made it out of Pemula Village!” The Venomous Wolf arrogantly insulted Jiang Fei.
“Haha! Look at her! He's an Iron Man now! Yo bad boy! You are dead meat! ” The demon wolf was quite interested to notice the hammer hanging on Jiang Fei's waist. The war hammer and blacksmith hammer looked different. Based on the difference between the two, Vicious Wolf quickly concluded that Jiang Fei was not a warrior!
“What do you want?” jiang Fei said maliciously. He frowned at the three. That's bad news.
Unlike other games, the PvP Dawn Break system is a bit more dynamic. Technically, there is no such thing as a safe zone. PvP can be started, anytime, anywhere. The only safe window a player has is an undefeated time of 20 seconds when a player is revived or loaded at the respawn point or Teleportation Circle. Players can start attacking others anywhere they want!
However, there are limits to PvP. There is something called Security Level. There are 21 levels of security, from 10 to -10. All players start with five Security Level points. Every time a PvP is performed in an NPC-controlled zone, or if you are the initiator of a fight, you will lose the Security Level. If you kill other players, you will lose two more points to your Security Level and become the target of NPC guards. Once arrested, all goods, equipment and coins will be confiscated. You will also be in prison for three days.
If the Security Level drops to zero, the NPC will put you under a trade embargo. If your Security Level drops beyond zero and reaches the negative area, the NPC guards will start the hunt. Security Levels below negative five will trigger a — event where your city will currently issue a “Kill on Sight” reward mission to other players.
Naturally, the Security Level could be regained and improved. Players can receive challenging missions to redeem themselves or even further increase their Security Level. At a Security Level of eight or higher, the player will become a City Official, granting access to waived service fees, special set equipment, and more.
A player in the negative Security Level zone will not be able to continue the game like the other players. They could go to Neutral City or join the Chaos City where robbers and Bandits roam free.
Due to the nature of sandbox games, many players have chosen to live exciting lives of crime. They would enter the city, kill a player, and rob all of their precious equipment. Before the NPC guards arrived, they would give out the stolen items to normal players and leave the city. As long as the loot was of high value, those unkind players were willing to accept the punishment and remain in prison! Losing all of their bad equipment was a decent exchange!
“Let the little guy. We won't touch you yet. You're still green behind the ears! There was nothing but trash and metal trash. For now. Hehe. You don't deserve to be in jail. Better watch yourself in the future. Just when you are thinking of taking a walk in better armor, we will be right behind you. Hiding in the shadows, attacking where it hurts the most when you're off guard. Hehe." The Hungry Wolf laughed menacingly. In the past, he had been frightened by Jiang Fei's cold gaze. The situation was different then, and now it's different. Jiang Fei was a non-combatant! There's nothing to be afraid of from a fucking Iron Man! What's he gonna do? Test his spontaneous reflexes with that toy hammer?
“You dare?! This cute brother is one of us! Knight Rosette!” miaomiao said, jumping forward.
“HAHA! WHAT A SMALL THING IT IS!”
“Yes God! Not a bad boy! You have learned the ancient art of curling up behind a woman! I'm impressed! Really impressed!” said the Hungry Wolf, laughing out loud like a real wolf.
“Really? Mark My words, I'll see you in the future. You won't hide in the shadows .. "Jiang Fei said as he pulled Miaomiao back. He knew that he was no match for battle, but that did not mean that he could not protect a woman!
“Be careful, boy! I'll see you soon the truth!”
“Don't forget to train your Level, huh? Work hard, practice your skills, and when you start to produce some good gloss, practice your skills, You can see I take it off your dead hand from your intangible head — if your eyeballs are still intact, it!”
So satisfied, they laughed and left Jiang Fei alone with Miaomiao still in his arms.
Miaomiao turned to Jiang Fei and said, "Brother, don't let them attack you! They're just assholes!” Miaomiao sharply threw the last word at them, running towards them for good measure. He returned to Jiang Fei. “Don't get discouraged by those bastards!”
“Do not worry! I'm doing fine. They don't scare me! They're clowns!” Jiang Fei laughed at him. Although he was smiling and cheerful on the outside, he felt very unhappy about not being able to fight them. As a blacksmith, he would be a huge loss against a combat-grade player. Jiang Fei glanced at the ring on his finger and thought to himself, "I have received a blow for you! You better not disappoint me, little boy.”
The ring shone brightly in response, as if trying to comfort Jiang Fei. It behaves as if saying, “Don't worry. Stay with me, and I will hand the world to your hands.”
“Alright then,” said Miaomiao. When he was sure that Jiang Fei was completely unaffected, he nodded in agreement. The girl was only about 15 to 16 years old. He was too young to understand how someone felt.
The two of them proceeded to the Iron Clever Workshop with Jiang Fei leading the way. Jiang Fei continued his usual routine. Furnaces, ores become ingots, hammers.
Corsair Chest Protector is a Level 15 Green Level Recipe. Making equipment would take longer than the Green Copper Wrist Guard.
Green light flashes, and newborn equipment.
Sturdy Corsair Chest Protector (Chainmail, Good)
Physical Defense: +40
Equipped: Deliver passive skills—Sturdy, increase maximum Health Points by 10%.
Level Requirements: 15
Jiang Fei's first equipment made under Miaomiao's supervision had fulfilled the ring's extraordinary abilities. His equipment was Green level and had additional attributes. Its defense value was only 30% higher than the same White level equipment. Then there is the passive skill. It turned the equipment into something else entirely.
“Here.” Jiang Fei stood up and gave the chain letter to Miaomiao.
“Wah! It's nice! I'm sure second brother will like you—it!” rosette Miaomiao.
The game is still growing. It's not even in puberty. Everyone wore White-level equipment, or none at all. Green level equipment was extremely rare. In order to obtain more powerful equipment, one must kill the boss, or have the Profession players make it for you. However, Crafters cannot just make something out of thin air, even if they have a lot of materials at their disposal. They still need the Boss's Recipe! Finally, everything went back to the boss. Taking on a boss requires a complete party, and the core of it is a solid tank!
A tank, as the name suggests, is a player who receives the intended penalty load for a team. Therefore, a good tank requires high Health Points! The higher the Health Points the tank had, the stronger it was against a high-profile boss. That was why Rosette Miaomiao was so happy to see a passive skill that increased Health Points!
