The four of them each chose a piece of silver-level equipment. Wang Tianyi chose a leather armor, Lin Li chose a gauntlet, Zhao Hua chose a ring-locking knife, and Pang Fei chose a wrench. A wrench that increases the repairability of his turret.
After making the selection, Lu Chen hung up all the equipment at the chamber of commerce in one go.
After settling the equipment matter, he had time to deal with the items left behind by the mayor.
Platinum-level equipment is already considered very rare in a small place like Fengcheng City. There have only been a few pieces of it released over the years.
[Heirloom Staff (Platinum Level)]
[Wearing conditions: level reaches LV8, can be equipped with occupations: mage, array mage, magic tank, wet nurse]
[Ability Power +150]
[Singing time-0.2]
[HP +2000]
[Equipment effect: Has a chance to gather demons. When gathering demons, the affinity to thunder attribute elements can be increased by 5%. 】
The attributes and effects of the equipment are top-notch, with a magic power of 150 and a blood volume increase of 2,000 points. These two attributes alone are enough to drive the professionals of the corresponding professions in Fengcheng City crazy.
What's more, this staff can also shorten the time of magic release. 0.2 seconds is too important for mages and array mages. In many cases, the difference in speed of 0.2 seconds determines the outcome of a battle.
"I can wear this equipment, but overall it has little impact on my strength. The chanting time and the equipment effect are of no use to me at all."
"This platinum-level staff is in vain."
Lu Chen weighed it in his mind, "It's better to sell it for money."
Referring to the platinum-level equipment previously sold in Fengcheng City, Lu Chen could only know the approximate price.
"Forget it, let's go to the auction. Whoever has the most money will bid and go. That's it."
Lu Chen was too lazy to think about it and put the equipment directly in the auction house for bidding.
Based on the attributes, the auction house quickly gave an evaluation of all S-level equipment. The starting price was 100,000 gold coins, and the bidding time was twenty-four hours.
For such good equipment, the bidding time must be adjusted a little longer to maximize the price of the equipment.
Of course, the price is that the commission deduction percentage will increase, which is about 20%.
"Evil middlemen, never do business at a loss."
After putting the equipment up for auction, Lu Chen just waited to see the final price after the twenty-four-hour countdown ended.
Close the Chamber of Commerce page and return to the inventory.
In addition to the staff, the mayor's items also include a codex and a bear doll.
This code is an item that will be prompted when the Archmage Zombie and the Mayor appear on the scene. It contains a crucial modification rule.
Lu Chen opened the code and turned the pages. There was a photo in the code. He unfolded the code and took out the photo.
The photo was stained with blood and showed a girl holding a bear doll playing with a tabby cat.
The civet cat is very delicate, yellow and white in color, with a small bell hanging around its neck.
"cat."
"A girl and a cat?"
In the Old City Alley dungeon, Lu Chen was very sensitive to creatures like cats, because from his personal intuition, he felt that the way Old City Alley became like this was inseparable from cats.
From the simple-level cat demons, to the ordinary-level frost cat demons and to the shadow cat demons we encounter now, they all represent the 'strength ones' in their respective levels.
Moreover, the curse on all creatures in the village and town has mutated, except for the cat demon, whose condition is shown to be normal.
All this information points to the fact that everything that happens here is related to cats.
But one thing that is very conflicting is that each zombie has bite marks on its neck. These bite marks are not caused by cats, but by bat-like creatures.
This is puzzling, and the logic cannot be straightened out.
"Brother Chen, there are words on the back of this photo!"
Pang Fei reminded, Chase Lu turned the photo over, and there were three lines of uneven small words written in ink on the back.
{This is my decision, if you want revenge, come at me, don’t attack my daughter}
{Thousands of mistakes are all my fault, let my daughter go}
{We used to be a family, probably}
These three lines of characters are very directional.
The curse in Old Town Lane is related to the cat in the photo!
"Brother Chen, what is written on the page with the photo seems to be about the regulations that revised the law that year."
"The revised regulations were regulations on the handling of pets in villages and towns at that time, focusing on animals like cats."
Pang Fei found key information again.
It’s the cat again!
"What does it say?"
Chase Lu asked.
Pang Fei quickly glanced at the text above, and then summarized it in his own words: "This decree seems to... relax some policies on pet cats in villages and towns..."
“In the past, it was strictly prohibited to abuse small animals, especially cats and dogs that are closest to people. However, after the amendment of the law, the new regulations stipulate that residents in villages and towns have the right to deal with their own cats, including deciding whether to deal with their own cats. life and death."
When Pang Fei said the last paragraph, everyone's hair stood up involuntarily.
"I feel a little creepy when I hear it."
"What does it mean to decide between life and death? Are there still people who would kill or even eat cats?"
"Wait, you just said, eating cats?" Hearing Zhao Hua's complaint, Lu Chen seemed to have thought of something, and took out the letter left by the Yan Sheng zombie from the inventory.
"The Smoke Saint Zombie was a priest during his lifetime. He opened a smoke shop in Old Town Alley, but he wrote in the letter: "Although its meat is very sour, I still can't help but want to eat it." Sour meat , is it possible that it’s cat meat?”
Lu Chen's words made everyone's faces pale. Some found them disgusting, while others found them scary.
"No...no way...who is so perverted as to eat cat meat?"
Lin Li's lips turned white. For someone like her who likes cute little animals, it is unacceptable both psychologically and physically! !
"At that time, I was still wondering why there were red plum blossom marks on the letter. Now it seems that these are simply cat's paw prints."
As the previous clues are connected together, the more you talk about it, the more terrifying it becomes.
"Imagine, if the changes in Old Town Lane were really due to a cat, the people in this city must have done something that deeply hurt it, and it would take revenge on everyone."
"If I were it, I would repay them a thousand times the pain I have suffered."
"This is the simplest and most straightforward logic."
"As a result, the people in the entire Old City Alley were cursed, and they were turned into zombies of all kinds."
"The previous caged zombies, lame zombies, broken-winged zombies, and the zombie with a chain around its neck, Pang Fei, do you think that changing their identities to cats seems not so inconsistent. ”
"Cats that were kept in cages and sold, cats with legs broken or pinched, cats with front paws broken and folded back, cats led by ropes and eventually strangled to death..."
"Also, the weapon in the hands of the executioner butcher zombie, don't you think the pliers look like the cat traps used to trap cats in cages?"
All the logic makes sense.
The mayor's revised law allowed cats to be brutally killed by residents of villages and towns, and then the cats retaliated in Old Town Alley.
This cat must have gained some power by accident, turning the entire old city alley into purgatory.
"If you guessed it correctly, the cat that gained strength is the one in the photo, the civet cat."
Lu Chen stared at the little kitten with a bell hanging on it, playing happily with the little girl.
But, at this moment, the cat in the photo actually moved.
Its face became ferocious, its body transformed, and its entire body turned black. It slowly turned its head to look at them outside the photo, with a pair of evil eyes shining with evil intent and resentment.
