Chapter 164 - The First Crisis (2/2)

Unstable Devastation sla, “You bunch of useless wastes! I clearly notified you all of this o, and three or four hours have passed already Yet, you guys couldn’t even produce a single Whetstone? How is the elite teauys here?”

“Boss Unstable, maybe the other Guilds have discovered the issue of their weapons deteriorating quickly? Maybe that’s e only ed to purchase a few stacks of Hard Stones?” the Berserker, Five Rats, said

“That’s a high possibility After all, it isn’t only our Guild leveling up in high-level monster areas However, Hard Stones aren’t exactly rare, and they can be obtained from Level 2 monster areas or above Moreover, nore stockpile available in Red Leaf Town right now There should also be plenty of players selling them on the Auction House We also discovered this matter fairly quickly, so even if the other Guilds have taken action, it is impossible for them to buy them all out immediately!” Unstable Devastation nodded, then shook his head again He could not make any sense of the situation

After they started hunting Ye Feng’s party, they discovered that the durability of their weapons fell extraordinarily fast In the beginning, they paid no attention to it, only focusing on leveling up and their search for Ye Feng’s party However, before they found Ye Feng, their equipment and weapons were already close to scrap Without a choice, they had to give up their search for Ye Feng, returning to town to repair their equiph the journey back wasted a lot of time, the elite team’s equipment was extremely precious If they did not repair it all in ti into scrap, the Guild would suffer an irrecoverable loss Moreover, without the equiprind and level up Thus, they needed to return and repair their equip their equip complaints from his subordinates The repair fees were too expensive, they said The cost of repairs had nearly depleted all the money they had As for classes that wore plate armor, they were even forced to borrow money from others for the repair fees

This situation dumbfounded Unstable Devastation

Unstable Devastation quickly discovered the crux of the proble durability of a piece of equipher the level of the equip repair fee would be Grinding high-levela trip to-and-fro froh-level areas also required them to waste at least two to three hours Moreover, they could, at h-level monster areas before they needed to return to town to repair their equipment This meant that they had to spend al

As a result, the tile level-up alate the travel ti speed would surpass the other players

When Unstable Devastation thought of this crucial matter, he immediately instructed his subordinates to look for a solution to this probleh this item could only repair a small amount of durability of a weapon, even that sh Compared to equipment used for protection, a weapon’s durability decreased at a reater rate If they used Whetstones to repair their weapons, the total cost would beit at the Smithy Hence, Unstable Devastation quickly ordered his subordinates to purchase Whetstones However, they quickly discovered that forgers did not norh Moreover, Whetstones normally did not sell at all

Unstable Devastation could only take a step back once again, and instead, choose to purchase Hard Stones, the materials required to make Whetstones Hard Stones were also relatively cheap iteineering components Each stack was only around 30 Copper Coins, and there were 20 in a stack, which le stack of Hard Stones

However, Unstable Devastation had received evennews If they could not purchase Whetstones directly, then so be it However, how could Hard Stones be difficult to purchase as well?

In reality, it wasn’t just Martial Union who had discovered this problem; the other Guilds had also discovered this issue By the time they tried to purchase Hard Stones, they suddenly discovered that, be it the Auction House or the stalls in town, there were only scarce ah for the forgers in their own Guilds to create Whetstones with
