This weapon is at least 30% stronger than the one she's currently using.
"Ugh..." Fanice covered her head, a little jealous, and said, "I see you're willing to give yourself up as captain, so of course you don't care about an orange-tier piece of equipment."
"Don't talk nonsense, Linda... is still watching!" Isa glared at Fanis in embarrassment, with a hint of reproach, and flicked her finger on Fanis's forehead, making the girl's skin turn bright red.
...
In the afternoon, Linda, along with the members of the Phoenix Flower team and the Ice Flower team, held a celebration banquet in the most expensive restaurant in the inner city.
"cheers!"
At the huge round table, more than a dozen people raised their glasses of ale.
The banquet lasted until the evening.
Linda escaped in a rather disheveled state. Isha, drunk, was not a good sign. She felt that if she stayed any longer, they might not be able to get along as normal friends tomorrow.
Behind him, Monica stared at him with a jealous expression, muttering, "Captain, you're a pervert..."
Kaphni teased, "You seem to be having a lot of fun playing with Pocky?"
Pocky is a long, thin chocolate chip cookie from another world. Men and women each have one end and keep eating it. Whoever stops loses. The drunken Issa seems to be planning to eat Linda as well. Although Linda wants to refuse, the hateful Ice Flower team members are like a group of bad 'drinking' people, urging him to accept.
It's as if she's only eating as much as she can afford to save face. Linda definitely didn't agree to play with Isa because her lips were so alluring!
"It's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding," Linda said solemnly. "It's just that those cookies were delicious."
“There’s more here…” Monica took a box out of her pocket, put a chocolate cookie in her mouth, and looked at Linda with a hint of shyness and sparkling eyes.
Perhaps it was the alcohol, but Linda didn't refuse. He wanted to taste what the biscuits on his teammate's lips tasted like.
"Mr. Linda, you've forgotten something—"
Fanis rushed out, clutching a piece of jewelry and a fist-sized metal magic core: "The captain said you must accept them!"
By this time, Linda had already finished eating the cookies.
Monica's face turned bright red, like a kitten hiding behind him, while he licked his lips, which seemed to still carry the fragrance of a young girl: like jelly, sweet and delicious!
Monica's lips are a little different from Lulu's.
Linda thought that Lulu's was more like cool mint, which was more suitable for hot nights.
He only snapped out of his daze upon hearing Fanis's voice.
"Orange jewelry? I can't accept that."
"The captain said you can't refuse!"
Even though she knew it was just polite talk, Fanice's goodwill towards her increased significantly. Not everyone can refuse orange jewelry.
“I think I understand why the captain took a liking to you.” Fanis chuckled, stuffing the jewelry and magic core into Linda’s hands, and waved her hand. “I’m going back now, everyone said they’re going to drink until dawn.”
"Tell your captain to drink less; her alcohol tolerance... is really quite low."
Linda watched Fanis leave before looking at the jewelry in her hand.
It is a silver bracelet with a pattern of slimes living happily on the grassland on the inner circle.
【Name: Joyful Earth Bracelet】
[Type: Equipment - Jewelry]
[Quality: Orange - Rare and Exclusive]
[Level: 20]
[Attribute values: Magic Power +450, Earth spell damage increased by 10%]
[Equipment Rating: 685. Wearing it, you can feel the call of the earth.]
A very standard piece of jewelry, suitable for an earth-elemental mage.
Linda made her own assessment.
The equipment requires level 20, while his teammate Monica is currently level 19 and is just a little short of being able to wear this orange-tier item.
Linda carefully put the bracelet into her pocket, and she and her team boarded the carriage to return to the villa.
In front of each villa was a red mailbox, and when Linda returned, she found an invitation in the mailbox.
In White Dove City, Rock-class adventure teams are given priority invitations to events of all sizes.
Although Luanweihua has not yet reached the Rock level, Linda has an Honorary Adventurer Badge, and the potential shown by the team has been recognized by the White Dove Adventurer Group. Even though she is not at the Rock level, she has received the same preferential treatment.
Take the invitation out of the mailbox; it's a piece of gilded magic paper with the following words written in elegant artistic script:
'Dear Phoenix Flower Adventure Team:'
The 36th auction, jointly organized by Chilang Trading Company, Jinguo Trading Company, and Mimeng Trading Company, will begin tomorrow night at 9 PM. We extend a sincere invitation to you and look forward to your presence.
Location: Underground Grand Theater, No. XXX, XXX Road.
They've arrived.
Linda smiled. He had been making so much gold coins these past few days that his hands were numb. He had a lot of gold in his savings card and had been waiting for this auction.
The main weapon is still undecided, and Monica and Kafni need to change into purple outfits... In addition, he also needs to buy a spatial ring.
...
Back at the villa, Linda was in the study preparing a strategy guide for Phyllis.
It was all finished at 1 a.m.
He drank a glass of hot milk and leisurely opened the Home System while reclining in his chair:
[Sign-in successful! Received 2440 diamonds!]
A small, weak team appeared on the challenge page. The chibi-style Phoenix Flower Squad easily defeated them and obtained 10 Defense Guidance Tickets.
There was no change inside the Hell Rift; the Heart-Eating Demon Worm was still stuck at level 28. It seemed that without leveling up, there was no way to get past it.
