Chapter 622: Preparations

Now that it was decided the five of them would be in one team, Emery and his friends would not waste any more time and began their preparation for the upcoming game. The group huddled together, as they started discussing what they lacked.

"I think what we direly need is high tier equipment." Emery said in a serious manner.

Like the previous first game which they had participated in, each acolytes would be forced to provide their own equipment upon entering the game. Apparently, the reason this practice was carried out was to see if the acolytes had the capability to meet the minimum standards of requirements for any battle.

From the information Klea and Julian gleaned from the Harlight and the Kaleos teams, tier 4 equipment was the limit for this first game - which was really a disadvantage for their team considering their current state.

Other than the [Moon Dagger] and [Gungnir], which Emery and Klea owned, the group only had one set of standard tier 3 weapons and tier 2 common equipment as spare. Their lack of good equipment was also exactly the reason why their previous battle against the pale man was so difficult.

Remembering about the pale man, Klea gleely asked. "Have you checked the spoils we got from him?"

What Klea actually meant by spoils was the storage ring that belonged to the pale man. Emery had taken off the latter's ring when he captured him. And after the man killed himself in the spectacular way, his storage ring lost the slight trace of its owner and became accessible.

Before the gaze of four pairs of eyes, Emery opened the storage ring, finding quite a number of items. 

His attention was immediately locked by a leather bag filled with dozens of yellow colored spirit stones. From a quick scan of his senses, he discovered 55 yellow spirit stones in the bag, which valued a total of five thousand five hundred spirit stones.

Keeping that wealth in mind, Emery proceeded onto the next items stored in the ring. He continued the scan as he saw a few pieces of clothes as well as other miscellaneous things which he selectively ignored. 

Then, he was attracted by the daggers artifact that the pale man had used against him.

Emery quickly took out one of the daggers from the ring and analyzed it with the symbol on his palm.

[Crimson Thorns - Tier 4 Weapon Set Artifact]

[A set of 9 flying daggers]

[Weight 0.5 kilograms, length 30 centimeters]

[Spell - Bleeding Hex]

[Causing the wound inflicted by this weapon to bleed abnormally]

Emery's face couldn't help but light up when he read the information the symbol had about the dagger. Unexpectedly, it was a Tier 4 nine-dagger weapon set and with a unique skill attached to boot!

Unfortunately, these daggers were specifically made to be used as a flying weapon. They were not suitable to be used as daggers for stabbing. This could be seen from the handle of the daggers, which was made not to be held by hand.

Emery decided to give the daggers to Klea, who had the best mastery in spirit control among them. However, she rejected it with a simple reason "Nope! Not gonna use it… it's too scary and doesn't look good on me... I don't want it."

This left Emery with the only option of selling it, as no one in the group was interested in or possessed the necessary abilities to wield this weapon. 

If he was lucky enough, he might be able to sell about fifty or sixty thousand spirit stones.

"So I guess we need lots of spirit stones!"

Emery's words were quickly understood with each of his friends checking out their storage rings and from each of their expressions, other than Klea, they really didn't have much wealth on them.

At this point, the group realized they didn't have enough spirit stones to completely gear themselves from head to toe.

Fortunately, Emery still had a large amount of contribution points that were far more valuable than spirit stones.

He then quickly offered his 90.000 plus contribution as a way to buy the equipment for the team.

Klea and the others naturally turned down Emery's offer, as they also knew how valuable contribution points were. There were many better uses of the points than to buy equipment.

They were about to split up and go their own way to hunt for some equipment when several figures came and said, 

"You guys don't need to buy any equipment!"

Emery and the others turned their heads toward where the voice came from and saw Magus Silica, Magus Xion and Yuria approaching them.

"Lord Izta has already prepared the equipment you guys need for the upcoming game." Magus Silica said to the group. "Let's go. You guys should come with us."

This news definitely brought a smile to all of them. Emery felt reluctant to accept the offer, but Lord Izta himself had treated them like his own brothers. Therefore, the group eventually accepted.

"Compared to what the other elite class acolytes have, what Lord Izta can offer is considered the bare minimum, just make sure you use it wisely."

The group followed their three seniors, as they were led to the large building situated next to the palace. The place was the barrack of the Terra Knights.

After walking past an area where Emery and the others saw hundreds of people training and practicing with each other, they were quickly taken to the armory.

As soon as the metal door was opened, the group was immediately treated to a sight of hundreds of weapons. There seemed to be so many different types of weapons available in the armory, as far as the eye could see, only their imaginations limited what types of weapons they could find here.

But unexpectedly, Emery and the others were led past this spectacular array of weapons and taken to a different room.

In an instant, Emery quickly realized the items in the room they were currently in were far superior when compared to what they had just seen. The mesmerizing glow as well as the aura that these items exuded told the group they were tier 4 or equivalent tier artifacts.

"These are all tier 4 artifacts we have, normally reserved only for the captains, but of course as family, you all should accept the best. 

Yuria said calmly. "You guys may choose and take anything that you like."

At first, Emery and the others were surprised. And then, they were exhilarated. It didn't even take a second longer for them to start picking up and trying out the items in the room.

Like always, Emery picked a sword, while Julian chose a sword and shield that took his fancy. On the other hand, Thrax grabbed a fierce-looking spear from its stand and a small round shield, while Chumo approached a bow that caught his eyes the moment he entered the room. As for Klea, she decided to pick a magic staff.

All of the weapons they chose were tier 4 artifacts, each with its own distinct boost.

[Increase Strength], [Increase Speed], [Increase Durability] and there were even a few with unique skill just like the [Crimson Thorns] and the [Moon Dagger].

Everyone was so excited about being given new tier 4 weapons. However, Magus Silica didn't look too excited as she watched them play with their new toy.

"Did Lord Izta ever guide you about weapons?" She asked with her eyebrow raised, as if there is something wrong with the weapon they choose.

The magus couldn't help but shake her head and said, "Let me see how far you guys have mastered the weapons of your choice."
