Chapter 8: New Equipment! Black Iron Gauntlets!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Brothers, hold on! I’m coming!”

Bill, who had sneaked behind the Goblin Captain, took the opportunity and shouted.

He deactivated Stealth and leaped up.

With both hands holding the beginner’s dagger with a green glow, it accurately cut the back of the Goblin Captain’s neck, whose HP was already at rock bottom.

“Puchi…”

The moment the short dagger slashed across the Goblin Captain, a pungent black blood sprayed out from the back of the Goblin Captain’s neck. The monster fell to the ground.

…

“Huff…”

Looking at the three monster corpses lying on the ground, Ursor, who was still in a defensive posture, breathed heavily.

“Plop…”

Because Simon and Meng Qi had expended too much energy, they directly slumped onto the ground.

After a short rest, the three hurriedly ran towards the corpse, squatted down, and started to search the corpse.

Bill, who was standing at the side, looked at the three people touching the corpses and said disdainfully,

“It’s just a low-level elite dungeon monster, what’s there to search for? At most, I’ll drop a few bronze coins for you. Are you expecting it to drop equipment?”

Let’s split the bronze coins evenly and leave. We’re still far from the Boss. ”

Before Bill finished speaking, Simon, who was searching the corpse, shouted excitedly,

“Equipment is out!”

“Damn!”

“It’s actually a black iron tool!”

Black Steel-grade wrist guard!

Black Iron equipment dropped on the first day of the server!!!

Bill, who was originally leisurely polishing his short dagger, immediately put away his weapon and snatched the wrist guard from Simon’s hand.

[Soldier’s Lost Wristguards]

[Category]: Handguard

[Level: Black Iron]

[Attributes]: Defense+5

[Introduction: A handguard accidentally lost by an ordinary soldier]

…

The equipment in Divine Domain was divided into several levels, starting from the lowest level whiteboard equipment.

Further up were Black Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Epic, Legendary, and Mythical.

Generally speaking, whiteboard equipment, black iron equipment, and bronze equipment would only have basic attributes enhancement.

Very few Silver-grade items will have special attributes bonuses…

And apart from the basic attributes that far exceeded ordinary equipment, Gold-level and above equipment would definitely provide additional rare attributes.

On the first day of the game, 70% of the players had no weapons in their hands.

The remaining 30% of players with weapons were basically those with whiteboard equipment bought from the NPC shops for two bronze coins.

Those basic attributes added were even more pitiful.

And this Black Iron Gauntlet, which was also a level-zero equipment, added a total of five points of defense attributes.

If Bill were to equip this Black Iron Gauntlet right now, his Defense Points would directly exceed that of the meat shield knight, Ursor.

…

The equipment drop rate in Divine Domain was extremely low in the early stage.

The vast majority of the reason why McRae and the others were able to drop Black Iron-grade equipment from an elite monster was because

They were the first team to challenge the Adventure-level Forest of Eternity, and they had killed the elite monsters first.

Elite monsters’ first kill drop rate of ordinary equipment would be much higher.

This was also the reason why so many unions were so determined to be the first clear the BOSSES at all costs.

…

Simon and the other two stared blankly at the black iron gauntlet in Bill’s hand.

For a moment, he was speechless.

It actually dropped equipment on the first day! And it was a black iron weapon that was an entire level higher than the whiteboard equipment!

…

Excited, Bill directly equipped the Black Iron Gauntlets.

Instantly, his wrist was no longer bare, but a worn leather wrist guard.

“Three Goblins, a total of six bronze coins. One wrist guard. I don’t want the bronze coins. I’ll take this wrist guard.”

Let’s go. The Boss is still far away. I’ll go ahead and scout the way. Hurry up and follow. ”

After saying that, Bill directly entered Stealth mode and disappeared on the spot.

Ursor, who was standing at the front, looked at Bill who had disappeared. He swung his round shield a few times in the air and said resentfully, “Greedy Bandit, this guard should belong to McRae!”

Simon and Meng Qi, who were standing beside McRae, also frowned, feeling that Bill was a bit detestable.

Simon collected the six bronze coins. After gesturing to Ursor and Meng Qi, he walked in front of McRae and said, “McRae, take these six bronze coins. We aren’t as greedy as that damn thief.”

McRae shook his head noncommittally and accepted the six bronze coins.

To the three of them

The few words of advice from McRae just now was the most valuable gain they had in this dungeon.

And in McRae eyes, this guard was just an extremely ordinary piece of trash black iron equipment.

Even the experience, bronze coins, and rewards from the Eternal Forest dungeon…

None of this attracted McRae.

McRae’s only purpose in joining this dungeon team was that hidden reward—the Deceiver.

Necklace! (Bronze – Unique)

And this hidden reward could only be obtained by the first one to clear the adventure level Boss of the Eternal Forest dungeon, Gruel the Deceiver.
