Chapter 20: Arthur Awakens, Iron Level

Wei Shen had approached more than one lord with whom he had made a deal.

But no one could provide him with equipment that satisfied him.

They only turned to Lin Chuan as a last resort.

In Wei Shen's eyes, Lin Chuan was a cunning and unscrupulous businessman.

Especially after witnessing the hero's power.

Wei Shen was filled with deep regret.

I regret trading away those five special units.

Although the transaction was based on mutual consent.

But Wei Shen already regarded Lin Chuan as a shrewd businessman in his heart.

I would absolutely not contact him unless it was absolutely necessary.

When I saw the attributes of the Pig Charge Shield sent to me.

Wei Shen knew he was going to go bankrupt again.

"Boss."

"This equipment currently has a very high market value."

"It's no worse than some orange ones."

Name your price.

In the secret realm, movement skills are very important and can determine the outcome of a battle.

Therefore, equipment with displacement capabilities remains expensive.

Wei Shen felt somewhat uneasy.

"Don't drive too high."

Lin Chuan quickly sent a message.

After clicking on it, Wei Shen was initially delighted, but then his brows furrowed.

Lin Chuan did not ask for a high price.

All you need is a hero class change scroll trade.

However, there is also an additional condition.

From the secret realm, help him bring out at least one quest item related to the title.

Wei Shen also knew that if he wanted to continue to advance, the lord had to obtain a title.

However, most lords are currently at a low level and it's not time for them to upgrade yet.

I didn't expect Lin Chuan to be so fast.

"Items for the title quest."

"This is difficult."

But he quickly remembered that the lords were saying that although Lin Chuan was strong, he had breached the goblin's lair too early.

I will die tonight from the goblin siege.

"If that's the case, perhaps we can agree."

When a person dies, their debts are wiped out.

If Lin Chuan dies tonight, then the subsequent conditions will no longer apply.

I've made a huge profit by acquiring a mobility item.

Of course, there are risks involved.

What if Lin Chuan isn't dead?

Wei Shen thought that this possibility wasn't nonexistent, but it wasn't high.

After all, Lin Chuan will be besieged by three thousand goblins tonight.

It should be noted that in other regions, even LV7 lords could not withstand it.

What makes Lin Chuan, a mere LV6 lord, so special?

"I've made the bet."

"Guaranteed to win!"

Wei Shen opened the chat box and agreed to Lin Chuan's terms of the deal.

.....

The class that undergoes a second awakening is the two-handed sword warrior.

This doesn't conflict with Arthur's talent.

The only difference was that the weapons they carried changed from sword and shield to two-handed sword and one-handed shield.

"Arthur".

"Yes, Your Excellency."

"Let's begin the job change."

Ten magic cores and one scroll.

A dozen minutes later, Arthur completed his job change.

"Ding-dong."

"Hero Arthur has completed his second awakening, gaining the talents of wielding two-handed swords and the Seed of Battle Aura (Iron Grade)."

"Arthur's level has been raised to 15, and he has gained the skills Aura Cross Slash, Savage Impact, War Cry, Whirlwind Slash, and Moonwalk."

At the same time as awakening, Lin Chuan also raised Arthur's level.

After the second awakening, a huge amount of experience is required, tens of thousands at level one.

Even though Lin Chuan had a lot of experience points, he could only level up Arthur to LV15.

Of course, the returns are also substantial.

Of the two talents, the two-handed sword adds a new weapon category, and future upgrades will definitely allow for the development of new troop types that use two-handed greatswords.

The Seed of Battle Qi is the core; compared to before, only warriors with Battle Qi can be considered truly extraordinary.

There are huge differences in individual combat capabilities.

This can be seen from the five skills.

Battle Aura Cross Slash: Condenses battle aura to unleash a cross-shaped attack, dealing ranged and long-range damage.

Savage Strike is a displacement skill that also grants the user a battle aura shield.

Battle Cry is a powerful attack that intimidates enemies, weakens their strength, and increases the damage output of yourself and your allies.

Whirlwind Slash: Gathers fighting spirit around oneself and swings the greatsword to attack like a whirlwind, greatly increasing one's speed.

Moonwalk, a short-range movement skill that uses concentrated battle aura to traverse a distance of ten meters, consumes little energy, instantly maximizing Arthur's mobility.

"With Arthur's current strength, he could easily defeat at least ten times his former self."

"No wonder scrolls with second awakenings are so rare."

"I made a killing on this trade."

At the same time, Lin Chuan found it somewhat strange.

Wei Shen was actually willing to trade this scroll?

Having such an awakened hero is far more powerful than having your own equipment.

Actually, it's not Wei Shen's fault.

He was unaware of the strength of the second awakened hero.

Furthermore, none of the units trained were skilled in using greatswords.

His main force is an assassin unit.

It clashes with the greatsword.

That's why Wei Shen put it up for trade.

Having witnessed the power of the heroes after their second awakening, Lin Chuan was filled with anticipation for the awakening of the subsequent heroes.

"Victor is a mage, so his strength will definitely increase by leaps and bounds after his second awakening."

"But Viktor is all alone."

"Its role on the battlefield is ultimately limited; it would be great if we could get an academy-type building."

Lin Chuan pondered this matter in his heart.

Lia came over and brought over the equipment that had just been forged.

New skilled workers were available.

The production of territory wolfhide armor and fine iron swords has increased significantly.

"Five pieces of leather armor and an equal number of iron swords."

"It can be sold for a lot of gold coins."

"But we don't lack gold coins right now, so we're still limited to trading resources that we don't have."

The items were displayed in the market mall.

As one of the few lords who can reliably produce attribute-enhancing equipment.

Lin Chuan's shops have attracted the attention of many lords.

The moment the item was posted, someone messaged me privately.

"Do you want special units?"

This message surprised Lin Chuan slightly.

The value of special units is now widely known among the lords.

It belongs to the type that has a price but no market.

A normal lord would never put it up for sale.

The other side offered this unit in exchange for their own weapons.

Lin Chuan couldn't help but wonder if the other person had something wrong with their head.

"Sure?"

But he still asked a question in return.

"Sure."

"But it's not what you think, it's a quest item."

"Completing the corresponding task will reward you with a special unit."

"The mission is within Snow Wolf Town."

"My skills are too poor; it's unlikely I can complete this mission."

"So it's being put up for trade."

With this explanation, Lin Chuan understood.

The other party quickly sent over the item information.

【The Missing Edmund】: A few days ago, goblins attacked the village below Snow Wolf Town. Knight Edmund led his men to the rescue, but when they arrived at the village, they only found the dead villagers. Edmund led his men into the forest and has not been seen since. Now you go to the secret realm of Snow Wolf Town to find news of Edmund and find out the reason for his disappearance. Completing the mission will reward you with a special unit.

"Based on this mission information, the special unit we obtain is likely a knight."

As one of the strongest units in the Classical era.

Lin Chuan felt it was entirely worth taking a chance.

They immediately agreed to the deal.

The price offered was three pieces of leather armor and three iron swords.

At this point, the other party wanted to raise the price.

Lin Chuan stated directly that this was the bottom price.

The transaction was successfully completed after no better seller could be found.

Lin Chuan then exchanged his remaining weapons for two ordinary secret realm tokens.

As the lord became familiar with the world.

With the advantage of having a large number of people.

The output of Secret Realm Tokens has also increased, and their prices are also changing.

It changes almost every second.

This is the standard difficulty; the easier ones are more expensive.

After all, many lords can only challenge the easy difficulty at present.

Even on normal difficulty, only a very small number of people have the ability to attempt it.

The last rays of sunlight disappeared from the horizon.

Night falls.

Lin Chuan put the Secret Realm Token into the warehouse.

Night fell.

"The goblins are about to appear."
