Chapter 793: Monarch
The pocketwatch wasn’t as heavy as the Lootkeeper’s Tipiece.
However, it was still heavier than any other normal pocket watch.
After inspecting it a bit, Shane actually liked its design. Even if it doesn’t have any effect other than telling the ti, he could imagine himself using this.
It had golden hands that were still moving, and it had a silver plating all over…
Still, the faint traces of energy it gave off reminded Shane of the very first ti he appraised the Lootkeeper’s Tipiece. It was the sa kind of pressure that hinted at a system-bending artifact.
Shane held his breath and used his appraisal.
[ Stylish Looter Pocketwatch: A looter’s dream and used by treasure hunters and plunder-kings.
Effect: When activated, all loot will be multiplied fivefold
Usage Limit: Five activations per day.
Warning: Cannot be stacked with similar dinsional-altering items. Excessive reliance may attract the attention of “Collectors” who hunt users of temporal artifacts. ]
Shane was shocked as he realized that it was indeed a lot better than the Lootkeeper’s Tipiece. Shane even blinked for a few seconds just to make sure he wasn’t hallucinating.
His chest tightened as he felt really excited now.
“Five tis… and five uses a day?! This is incredible,” He almost dropped it out of sheer excitent.
Compared to his original Lootkeeper’s Tipiece, which only worked once a day, this thing was on another level entirely. If the Lootkeeper’s Tipiece was a jackpot, then this was a miraculous item.
He gripped it tighter as he knew that he couldn’t let others take it.
“This… This is absurd. With this, I can… Wait… What’s the “Collectors” I might attract?” Shane asked as he read the warning from his Appraisal result.
Unfortunately, the shopkeeper didn’t give him more information. He only gave a hint.
“If you already have sothing similar… Then you must abandon one of them, so you won’t get detected by them.” The shopkeeper said.
Shane was still confused, but he understood what he must do. He couldn’t have both Lootkeeper and Stylish Looter at the sa ti.
“I guess I can sell it to Raze or maybe Asad.” Shane muttered.
Of course, his first option would be Raze, the Vice Clan Leader. If she didn’t want it, he’d sell it to Asad since he knew very well how Asad would benefit from it.
Since the man would literally hunt for Zombies every day, he’d definitely use it every day.
In any case, Shane was already excited.
He imagined a Zombie Lord’s Territory would definitely be a lot more rewarding since he could also use this fivefold loot to their Zombie Kings or Generals…
Farming rare boss drops and getting five tis the gear. Even scavenging mundane supplies would turn mountains of trash into treasure.
“This one alone is worth every point I still have…” he muttered. He even noticed that his voice was trembling with both greed and joy.
The hooded shopkeeper, seeing Shane’s excitent, knew that he would make a decent sale today…
“Few can hold it without it rejecting their grasp. For you, outsider, it ticks willingly. A rare fate indeed.”
‘Oh? Does the clock hand not move when held by others?’ Shane thought, but for now, he turned at the price tag.
[ Stylish Looter Pocketwatch: 95,000 Points ]
His heart skipped again. That was a fortune, more than double what he had paid for the Civilization Monunt.
But this ti, Shane didn’t feel hesitation. Not at all.
This was no simple trinket. It was an artifact that could completely tilt the balance of power in the apocalypse.
Shane carefully placed it back down and wiped his palm, which had grown sweaty from excitent. Then he exhaled slowly, trying to calm the racing of his heart.
“Is this the buyout price? Or do I have to bid for it still?” Shane asked.
“It’s the buyout price. No need for bidding.” The shopkeeper said with a smile.
“Great… Then, I’ll take this for 95,000 Points.” Shane muttered as he imdiately used the buyout system of the BidLink Communicator to obtain the item.
“One down… six more to appraise…” Shane whispered as he decided to continue checking the other items.
The next was the Pair of Glasses that had dull fras. It looked almost ordinary, yet when Shane stared, he felt a piercing sensation in his eyes.
[ Truthseer’s Lenses: Allows the wearer to see through all illusions, disguises, and concealed information. Warning: Long-term use risks permanent blindness. ]
“Hmm… This is a nice item. It’s also cheap for its price.” Shane muttered to himself as he realized that he could actually recreate this item as well. He just needs to create these eyeglasses and use his Talent to infuse them with Fairie Insight. It might work better with that arrangent.
If he did that, he would save 38,000 Points in this pair of glasses.
‘I should really stop imbuing all in those tokens.’ Shane suddenly thought.
After all, he felt that the effects of so of his skills weren’t suited to most tokens. For movent skills, for example, it was much better to imbue them in shoes or socks, rather than necklaces or bracelets… The effects would feel a lot better and stronger.
‘Right… I can just ignore this then.’ Shane thought to himself as he turned to the next item.
It was the Folding Fan that looked elegant. It was even painted with so storm clouds to appeal more.
[ Gale Monarch Fan: When waved, it could summon violent storms, winds, and lightning strikes over a 50-ter radius as long as you have enough Spirit Points. It was once owned by a fallen Wind Sovereign. ]
After seeing the description of this item, Shane knew that it would cost a lot of Spirit Points to use this.
It wouldn’t be surprising if one wave of the fan would eat up 1,000 Spirit Points!
‘Now I’m really curious…’ Shane thought as he felt that this Gale Monarch Fan would be a terrifying weapon with Sandra’s Flight Talent!
If she could use this fan while in the sky, she’d really look like a true Monarch…
