Enchantment 2: Insect attraction, has a great attraction to insects.

Zhou Heng's expression showed slight joy. This bow had no profession requirement, no level requirement, and could be used as long as the minimum attack reached 10 points.

Without a word, Zhou Heng equipped the Great Sun Divine Bow (Fake).

Instantly, his attack soared from 16-32 to 46-92.

Level 1, physical attack upper limit 92, what kind of concept is this?

Zhou Heng didn't know, but he knew that his subsequent leveling journey would be much faster.

"Next, it's the unknown ceramic shards."

ceramic shards (Unknown)

Quality: Unknown

It seems to be just a fragment after ordinary ceramic broke? If sold, perhaps some ignorant child might offer a high price of 1 copper coin.

The unknown is the most worth keeping, you can see this sentence in textbooks from time to time.

Without a word, Zhou Heng put away the ceramic shards, specifically placing them in the last slot of the Brilliant Backpack.

After doing all this, Zhou Heng began his great undertaking of skill upgrading.

1000 small magic bottles, 5000 small mana recovery potions, he didn't believe he couldn't evolve the "Burning Rage" skill.

Easier said than done, Zhou Heng downed a bottle of small mana recovery potion, cast Flame Gauntlets, and began absorbing Blazing Fire.

【You absorb Blazing Fire】

【Flame Gauntlets are changing】

【Change failed】

【You absorb Blazing Fire】

【Flame Gauntlets are changing】

【Change failed】

...

Looking at the prompts appearing on his retina again and again, Zhou Heng wasn't discouraged and continued to absorb Blazing Fire.

Soon, the sky was bright, and Flame Gauntlets finally changed.

【You absorb Blazing Fire, Flame Gauntlets change, it has self-evolved】

【You obtained "Flame Gauntlets" (Simple++)】

Flame Gauntlets

Lasts 10s, after 10s, continues to consume 1/3s.

Cooldown: 20s

Learning Condition: None

Looking at the enhanced skill "Flame Gauntlets" again, Zhou Heng didn't choose to continue absorbing and evolving. His health bar was bottoming out, and he had to return to Little Bird Town to buy enough red bottles.

Otherwise, his first virgin death might be wasted within the Blazing Fire Fountain.

It took a little over a quarter of an hour for Zhou Heng to return to Little Bird Town. As soon as he returned, he heard players coming in and out discussing animatedly.

"Did you hear? The Black Bear Guild was attacked last night, and it seems the attackers were people from the Sword of Light."

"I heard my cousin mention this force. It suddenly emerged in various places recently and hasn't had time to be included in textbooks yet."

"Your news is outdated. The latest news is that Black Bear Overlord, the Vice President of the Black Bear Guild, was enraged and ordered a search for the three stolen precious items and the Brilliant Backpack."

"Damn, if I had known earlier, I would have gone and stolen too last night. Anyway, many guild mechanisms are lost, so they can't track who did it at all."

"Is there even a need to investigate? It must have been taken by the people from the Sword of Light while they were at it~"

"Although a lot of the guild's authority has been lost, the guild log still has some use. I heard someone say that it shows a guild member took these resources. Black Bear Overlord has been waiting for the other party to voluntarily turn them in, but they waited until now and no one has turned them in. In a fit of rage, aren't they going to start a thorough investigation?"

Zhou Heng was heading towards the general store. Hearing the players' discussions, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but lift.

There are many theories about the loss of guild authority. Among them, two are the most attention-grabbing. One is that the Chang Sheng Family was annihilated, so the guild is no longer complete. Two, the Heart of the Guild is the core of all guilds; without it, many guild functions cannot be activated, but no one knows where it went.

It was precisely because of the massive loss of guild authority, to the extent that they couldn't even check the actions of their own guild members through the "Guild Log," that Zhou Heng dared to so brazenly fleece the Black Bear Guild. As for being traced through investigation, it's definitely possible to trace him, but it would only be later than the blackening of the deep-sea jelly worms. At that time, the situation might change in unknown ways, and perhaps the Black Bear Guild won't have time to deal with him. Furthermore, he still has Destiny Prompt. If it truly reaches the point where he's about to be caught, he believes Destiny Prompt will definitely provide a hint.

Thinking this, Zhou Heng walked towards the general store.

The general store owner was a full-figured woman with a graceful figure, wearing a low-cut dress, always leaning on the counter with her chin propped up from time to time.

"Young man, need to buy something?"

"Blue bottles or red bottles, or anything else, as long as you can afford the price, big sister here has... e... v... e... r... y... t... h... i... n... g... oh~"

Seeing Zhou Heng approach, the full-figured woman enticingly said in a familiar manner.

Zhou Heng didn't even look at the other party, scanning the red bottle counter behind her.

"Sister, give me 100 red bottles. Also, I have 3 silver coins on hand. I wonder if there's anything at this price point?"

The full-figured woman looked at Zhou Heng in surprise, pursed her lips, and chuckled lightly, her chest heaving with the laughter.

"Oh my, young man, you're so impressive~ You even have silver coins~"

"Then big sister has to show you some good stuff~"

Saying this, the full-figured woman ducked behind the counter. After a while, she took out 100 red bottles and a skill book from under the counter.

"Experience Book, a common level skill. You players should know the market price for this, 3 silver coins. You won't lose out, you won't be fooled."

Experience Book is not an item used in traditional online games to directly increase experience, but a skill that can continuously boost experience.

A common level Experience Book has an upper limit of gaining an additional 10,000 experience points.

This quality, 3 silver coins, is a normal market price.

Just as Zhou Heng was about to speak and directly take this skill book, lines of text suddenly appeared on his retina.

【Based on the basic knowledge learned from textbooks, you think your price is stable, but little do you know, you have entered a pig-butchering scheme. These three silver coins will be related to your future Destiny.】

【Destiny provides a prompt】

【Destiny Prompt One: As the Sword of Light raises its long Sword of Light high in the Sakas Empire, the currency system is the first to be impacted. Although 1000 copper coins could be exchanged for 1 silver coin, that was before, not now. Nowadays, it's difficult for copper coins to be exchanged upwards, and the black market price is as high as 100,000 copper coins for 1 silver coin.】

【Destiny Prompt Two: Although the common level Experience Book skill is not rare, it is a necessity. Perhaps you can consider informing about the market conditions and exchanging 1 silver coin for a certain amount of copper coins to purchase it. Current market price: 5000 copper coins.】
