Chapter 58 Unknown Rusty Ring
Genesis store, Hanga District, Imperial city;
*Ding! You dismantled Trolls' Armor. 342 credits have been added to the character.
*Ding! You dismantled Trolls' Bracer. 164 credits have been added to the character.

"Hahaha, this is what they call the Goddess of Luck is smiling on someone." Mark was on cloud 9 as he was dismantling all the equipment he confiscated from Mo Jiang after Allen defeated him.
Originally, he thought the system wouldn't let him dismantle it considering he doesn't own them. If such a case occurs, he planned to sell them in the Everlasting weapon store and exchange them with other equipment in return, then, dismantle them. Or maybe, just sell them for gold, instead.
But, upon facing the first success, Mark remembered the silver grade sword that he picked up from the ground. Lin Xue faced her defeat when she sparred against Allen for the first time and left the weapon. He dismantled it and got credits in return.
Back then, he did it without thinking of anything. However, now that there are several gold-grade weapons waiting to be dismantled, he enquired with the system.
In response, he was told that the system considers all the equipment Mark confiscate from the enemies he, his summons, or Allen defeat fair and square.
"I guess I found a way to earn credits." Mark crackled his knuckles with an evil smile on his face. For the sake of credits, he decided to make enemies from arrogant ones that irk him.
"Okay, so far, I got more than 650 credits. There are still things left to be dismantled."
He picked up one of the steel greaves and dragged it to the circle on the holographic screen.
*Ding! You dismantled Taslan's Greave. 191 credits have been added to the character.
Then, it was the turn of the second one.
*Ding! You dismantled Taslan's Greave. 191 credits have been added to the character.
Now, only a sword, storage ring, and a rusty ring were left.
Mark pulled out the sword from the sheath. "Hmm, the sheath looked exquisite."
Name: Ruby Bloodwyrm Steel sword
Nickname: Hakanas (former) *Click to change*
Grade: Gold
Description: A sword that was forged by Master Blacksmith Zhu Jian. It was made of Freiten steel. During the forge, five hundred ml of Red Drake, the Ruby Bloodwyrm's blood was used as a catalyst to bring the properties of fire attribute. Like other Gold grade weapons, this sword has the capacity to hold the ether energy up to a six-circle realm.
Special skill: Generate flames from the sword and demolish your targets. (Strictly restricted to only fire-attribute users). Cost: 20% of Ether energy
Unique skill: Turns into a sword made of powerful dragon flames for 10 seconds with a 1% chance.

Looking at such a powerful weapon in his hand, Mark didn't feel like dismantling it. He knew for sure that this sword will give him high credits if he were to dismantle it but it is better than Allen's current sword even though both of them are of the same grade.
It makes sense to replace it with the other one but wouldn't it draw more hatred from Mo Jiang? Song Mansion's security Chief Yi Fang was dead but Mo Jiang is alive, right?
"Hmm, wait a second. Why am I even considering such a threat when I already started the enmity between us? Whether I dismantle or use the sword, it wouldn't make a difference, anyway." Realization dawned upon Mark and he quickly took the gold grade sword out of his inventory and stored the Ruby Bloodwyrm's sword instead.
*Ding! You dismantled Scalleda's sword. 286 credits have been added to the character.
After the sword, only two rings were left.
One of them is a storage ring, which cannot be claimed by Mark as long as its owner is alive. As Mark can't do anything with it, he kept it in his inventory and will return to Mo Jiang if the latter apologizes for his actions.
Finally, his eyes fell on a rusty ring that was found in Mo Jiang's pocket.
When he inspected it, a look of surprise appeared on his face. Instead of details, a notification has been received.
*Ding! An unknown object has been detected.
*Ding! Would you like to sell the object to the System in exchange for 500 credits?
"500 credits?" Mark assumed it must be atleast a gold-grade ring. He had heard of accessories like rings, earrings, and necklaces that give a passive strength boost to its wearer. They were also as rare as High-Quality Ether crystals.
So, Mark decided to keep it for himself. Maybe, he can remove the rust by himself using salt, baking soda, and hot water. "There's no harm in trying."
Once he decided on it, the system sent another warning.
*Ding! This is only a one-time offer. Do you really wish to reject it?
"Yes." Mark was firm on his decision, not just because he was interested in it, but also because he had gathered enough credits with all the dismantling.
Putting aside the ring for a minute, Mark proceeded to open the store with a little over 1800 credits.
Like the last time, only the Item section was available. Skills, Attributes, Bloodlines, and Unique weapons are grayed out.
Mark scrolled down.
First, it was limited ones of various pills that improve miscellaneous things like recovery rate of ether energy, healing, creation success rate, better vision, etc…
Basic pills cost 100 credits. They give a 10% boost for five minutes.
Intermediate pills cost 500 credits and give a 30% boost for five minutes.
Advanced pills cost 5000 credits and give a 100% boost for five minutes.
"Man, damn expensive. Even 1800 credits will not be enough to let me buy a limited-time Advanced pill. For now, they are useless but in the future, when I get to create missiles, jet fighters and all, the percentage boost will help me a lot."
The next category was full of pills that increase the stats permanently. Naturally, they are quite expensive but also limited in number. A total of ten basic ones, ten intermediate ones, and 1 advanced pill.
A Basic pill that boosts a specific stat by a random 0.1 stat point costs over 100 credits. A specific stat point costs 500 credits.
Likewise, an intermediate pill costs 1000 credits for boosting 0.3 stat points randomly but needs 4000 credits for boosting a specific one that Mark wanted to raise.
As for an advanced pill, it costs 5000 credits to boost 1 stat point randomly and needs 20000 credits for a specific stat boost.
While basic and intermediate pills can be depended on luck, Mark can only choose an 'Advanced grade' intelligence pill to increase an entire realm in an instant. And 20000 credits isn't a small amount either.
"So, to take an advanced pill, I might have to dismantle 50-100 gold grade equipment? Were they peanuts or something that I can just gather them and dismantle? How many thousands of gold coins are they worth? System, isn't it too expensive?"
*Ding! Shortcuts are often pricey.
The system made a simple comment to his complaint and shut his mouth.
"Alright, you win." Mark resigned from complaining and continued his shopping.
Apart from stat pills, there are other ones like skill power that increases the damage power of skills, there are longevity pills that increase life span permanently but Mark can't afford them and scrolled down further.
He arrived at the Potions section, where, upon consuming a potion, a limited time stat boost will be granted.
The prices were the same as the limited-time pills except that 100 credits worth basic potion will only boost 0.1 stat and that too for 60 seconds.
Likewise, 500 credits intermediate potion will boost 0.3 stat points for 60 seconds, and 5000 credits worth advanced potion will boost 1 stat point for 60 seconds.
The best thing about these Potions is that they can be taken by others that are bound to his soul like his summons or Allen. Considering how the lightning panther's strength is at 1.9, Mark purchased a basic one.
*Ding! You purchased a basic strength potion. 100 credits have been deducted.
*Ding! Strength potion (Basic) has been sent to the inventory. Check the inventory for details.
"Okay, once I gather enough credits, I should buy an Advanced potion. I can give it to Allen to improve his strength in an emergency situation."
