Chapter 64 - Enhanced Weapon

    Yang Yi took a piece of leather and wrapped the Broken Iron Sword in it before stuffing it into his greedy stomach pouch.


    Unless he faced arge creature, it was better not to use it.


    The drawback was its demanding requirement: Strength 9.


    If he could boost his base strength by 6 points, it would be much more convenient. After triggering Madness, he’d only be 1 point short, which could be supplemented with a potion.


    Next, he needed to seize the time to enhance his strength!


    After purchasing the Broken Iron Sword, Yang Yi was left with a bnce of only 18,000.


    He nned to use the remaining funds to buy some misceneous items and check out bows. If the funds fell short, he could trade some resources to make up the difference.


    He checked the world channel but didn’t find anything worthwhile.


    Ranged weapons were more in demand than melee ones, with an overall trend of highpetition, especially for guns.


    He privately messaged several people, only to find that the weapons were already sold.


    Finding a suitable bow wasn’t going to be easy.


    However, Yang Yi wasn’t in a rush — he nned to spend the next few days fishing in the pr sea.


    Unable to find the right ranged weapon, he turned to other necessities, all reasonably priced.


    He spent 120 stone to buy a piece of flint, 1,200 Shell Coins for two down jackets, 800 Shell Coins for two woolen hats, and 2,000 Shell Coins for four pairs of long fleece-lined boots.


    The reason for buying down jackets instead of just woolen sweaters was the extreme cold.


    If sweaters and trousers couldn’t keep him warm, he couldyer the down jackets on top — it was worth the extra expense.


    After finishing his shopping, it was alreadyte at night.


    He drank a bottle of appetite potion, ate three loaves of ck bread and a sausage, drank a litre of freshwater, and then drifted off to sleep.


    【Name: Woolen Hat】【Type: Treasure】【Quality: Common】【Description: Soft andfortable, it wraps the head well and prevents frostbite on the ears.】


    【Name: Long Fleece-Lined Boots】【Type: Treasure】【Quality: Fine】【Description: The soles are patterned for anti-slip purposes. Thick and lined with fleece, these boots are ideal for snow walking, offering warmth and grip. However, they’re not very breathable — don’t try sniffing the inside.】


    The following day, the Nightmare Star sailed as usual.


    If all went as expected, they would reach the pr sea in two days.


    Yang Yi stood at the bow of the ship, fishing.


    “Hey, buddy, do you understand what I’m saying?” He attempted to converse with the skeletal captain at the ship’s bow.


    The captain didn’t respond and simply kept moving his jaw open and shut.


    “Here, try this long-legged sardine I just caught!”


    Yang Yi stuffed a long-legged sardine into the skeletal captain’s mouth.


    Although it could bite, it had no digestive tract. The fish ended up slipping out between the bones.


    Yang Yi’s enthusiasm waned.

    <code>If you’re reading it somewhere else, please be aware it was copied without our consent.</code>


    He realised the skeletal captain was nothing more than a decoration.


    He wondered if upgrading the ship in the future would bring some new functionality to it.


    He continued fishing.


    Before entering the pr sea, he wanted to catch as many eyeball fruits as possible and try drying them into eyeball fruit jerky.


    Since he had no fire, he nned to make a simple stove, hang the eyeball fruits nearby, and speed up the drying process.


    As he thought about this, he caught another eyeball fruit.


    While fishing, Yang Yi also checked the chat channel, looking for equipment to enhance Suna’s attack power.


    Her bow and arrows were quite limited in effectiveness. Against tough-skinned or armored monsters, it was difficult to inflict substantial damage.


    Thus, Yang Yi had been searching for a more powerful bow or a crossbow-like weapon.


    However, after browsing for an entire afternoon, he still couldn’t find anything suitable. Either the prices were exorbitant, or the quality was too low.


    Ultimately, it all boiled down to one problem: Yang Yi didn’t have enough money!


    Ranged weapons were significantly more expensive than melee ones, sometimes costing twice as much — especially firearms!


    He had just seen a high-quality double-barrel shotgun sell for a hefty 40,000 coins.


    【Name: Double-Barrel Shotgun】【Type: Treasure】【Quality: Premium】【Description: A hunter''s favored double-barrel shotgun. Effective range: 50 metres. Ammo capacity: 2. Automatic reload time: 3 minutes. Suitable for hunting boars.】


    Yang Yi’s ount had only 14,000 Shell Coins left. If he converted his resources into cash, he could add another 20,000 coins.


    But with such amount, buying a rare-grade bow was just a pipe dream.


    Purchasing a premium-grade bow would only provide a slight improvement — no fundamental change.


    “What if I buy a premium bow and then enhance it using a low-tier artisan inscription stone?”


    As Yang Yi mulled over this, a new idea struck him.


    He couldn’t afford a bow, but he could afford arrows!


    Searching with specific keywords, he finally found something worthwhile.


    Although there were no explosive or ice arrows for sale, armor-piercing arrows were avable.


    【Name: Tri-edged Armour-Piercing Arrow】【Type: Consumable】【Quality: Fine】【Description: These arrows have excellent pration capabilities. The arrowheads include blood grooves that cause wounds to bleed continuously and heal poorly.】


    After reading the description, Yang Yi decided to buy these arrows.


    They were far superior to the iron arrows produced by the simple synthesis system!


    However, the price was steep — 300 Shell Coins per arrow.


    Still, considering the arrows could be reused, the price was reasonable.


    He immediately contacted the seller.


    “250 Shell Coins for 30 tri-edged armour-piercing arrows — deal?”


    “Not selling!”


    The seller was quite firm.


    After some haggling, Yang Yi finally bought 40 arrows for 280 Shell Coins each, spending a total of 11,200 coins.


    His ount now had only 2,800 Shell Coins remaining.


    Yang Yi decided to save the rest for emergencies.


    “Suna, I bought some armour-piercing arrows and left them in your room,” Yang Yi messaged her.


    Suna was mostly holed up in theb, and Yang Yi didn’t bother asking what she was working on.


    A few minutester, she replied:


    “Got it!”


    After finishing these errands, Yang Yi took out the low-tier artisan inscription stone he had obtained earlier.


    The item could only be used to enhance treasures, and Yang Yi had been holding onto it.


    Initially, he nned to buy a suitable premium-grade polearm to enhance. But unexpectedly, he ended up buying a rare-grade weapon instead.


    Yang Yi didn’t like hoarding items.


    For enhancement tools like this, it was better to use them when needed. Dying with unused resources would beughable.


    He immediately enhanced the Sea Serpent’s Fang.


    A dazzling golden light shed, and the weapon''s properties changed.


    【Name: zing Sea Serpent’s Fang (Transformed)】【Type: Treasure】【Quality: Rare】【Description: A serpent fang dagger infused with fiery power and enhanced. Extremely sharp, it inflicts burns on wounds. Can release stored fiery energy in a single burst, spraying a fan-shaped me to ignite items within the area. Cooldown: 48 hours. After using the me burst, the dagger dims and loses its burning effect. 】


    After reviewing the updated stats, Yang Yi was very pleased.


    To his surprise, the enhanced Sea Serpent’s Fang had gained an active skill — this was a true transformation!


    It seemed that upgrading weapons to rare-grade significantly boosted their attributes.


    The me burst skill could even serve as a makeshift ignition tool, although it might identally burn unnecessary things.


    However, with its long cooldown, it was best used sparingly unless absolutely necessary.
