World of Warcraft Murloc City Guide - Chapter 340

c340 Equipment and levels

After settling the injured murlocs, Yang Yi came to the inn in Deadwater Village.

Several seriously injured murlocs were arranged to receive treatment in the inn. Slark is still lying on the bed in the inn, still unconscious.

The murloc chef has prepared food, a table full of [stewed chocobos], which is enough to fill the stomach of the minotaur Jerick.

Jerick grabbed a chocobo leg in each hand and ate it happily. This minotaur has a good mentality. No matter if he is injured or encounters other setbacks, he can be happy as long as he can have a big meal.

Yang Yi sat opposite Jerick. He was not happy at all and looked gloomy.

“Hey, I didn’t expect the hydra to be so powerful.” Yang Yi sighed and said.

Jerick gnawed both chocobo legs clean, licked his lips with satisfaction, and then slowly said: “It is not an ordinary hydra. It must be affected by the evil power deep underground.”

“What is the evil power deep underground?” Yang Yi asked.

“I can’t be sure what that evil power is, but I can be sure that this hydra is affected by it.” Jerick said, “In the case of ordinary equipment, it is not easy for combat professionals to defeat beasts of the same level in a battle between elites, because the beasts’ natural scales and claws are their most powerful protective gear and weapons. But when Jagu and I joined forces, and many fishmen joined the battle, we still let the hydra escape, which shows its strength.”

Jerrick and Jagu are both level 7, they are both junior elites-experts. The hydra Geshalahan is a level 7 beast, the same level as Jerick and Jagu.

Yang Yi has seen Jerick’s hammer and shield, both of which are excellent quality equipment (green equipment). As for Jagu, he had nothing in his hands, not even a weapon, let alone the quality of his equipment.

“If you have good equipment, can you defeat the hydra?” Yang Yi asked curiously.

“That depends on what kind of equipment it is. If it is a set of fine equipment, I am confident that I can defeat the hydra alone. If it is a set of epic equipment, I guarantee that I can smash one of its heads with one hammer.” Jerick said confidently.

“The quality of equipment has such a big impact on combat effectiveness.” Yang Yi was surprised.

“Of course. Otherwise, how could a good hammer sell for so many gold coins.” Jerick said.

Yang Yi heard that Jerick also wanted good equipment, but he had no choice but to not have enough gold coins in his pocket.

Talking about equipment, Yang Yi has never cared much about his equipment. He feels that as a lord, personal strength is not the focus, and the development and growth of Ratchet Town is the most important.

Therefore, Yang Yi did not spend gold coins to buy equipment for himself. Even if he went to the auction house in Thunder Bluff, he did not take a second look at the equipment being auctioned.

Currently, Yang Yi often uses two weapons, one is the [Sea Monster Harpoon] for melee combat, and the other is the [Hard Shortbow] for ranged attacks.

[Sea Monster Harpoon] is a level 4 fine long-handled weapon (blue equipment), and [Hard Shortbow] is a level 2 excellent bow (green equipment). With Yang Yi’s current level of 6, these two weapons are no longer useful.

In addition to these two weapons, Yang Yi usually wears a necklace and two accessories.

The necklace is [Kristrasza’s Dragon Breath Amulet], and the accessories are [Narion’s Idiot-type Gnome Universal Remote Control] and [Safe Teleporter: Okaz Island].

Among them, [Kristrasza’s Dragon Breath Amulet] and [Narion’s Idiot-type Gnome Universal Remote Control] are both level 6 epic equipment (purple equipment), and the remaining [Safe Teleporter: Okaz Island] is a level 6 excellent equipment (green equipment).

It’s a pity that the effects of the two epic equipment are both functional, and they are basically useless in normal times.

[Kristrasza’s Breath Talisman] can increase the target’s resistance to dark spells, or cause certain damage to dark creatures. When there is no dark spell or dark creature, this necklace is not very useful.

Fortunately, [Kristrasza’s Breath Talisman] also has “+7 Agility, +7 Stamina” attribute enhancements, so Yang Yi always wears it around his neck.

As for [Narian’s Idiot-type Dwarf Universal Remote Control], the effect of use is just as unconventional, and can only be used to control mechanical targets.

Moreover, this epic-level accessory does not add any attributes. Yang Yi usually carries it purely because each character can equip two accessories, and he has no good alternative accessories. Anyway, it is empty.

As for [Safe Teleporter: Okaz Island], not only does it have no attribute bonus, but because the teleportation point is in Dr. Vivier’s house, he dare not use it at all, so he just takes up space.

In addition, Yang Yi also has a level 5 excellent quality [parachute cloak]. Since Yang Yi is still used to not wearing clothes after becoming a murloc, let alone wearing a cloak, it has been stuffed in his bag.

These are Yang Yi’s daily equipment.

Yesterday’s battle with the multi-headed snake Geshalahan made Yang Yi clearly realize the gap in his strength. He could hardly help during the entire battle, which made him feel very sad.

Azeroth still relies on strength, and personal strength is very important.

So Yang Yi now especially wants to improve his strength.

Yang Yi’s current level is level 6. If he can upgrade his level to level 7, it means he will change from ordinary level to elite level, and his strength will have a qualitative leap.

But it is not easy to go from ordinary to elite. Countless people have difficulty upgrading after reaching level 6, or even stuck at level 6 for their whole lives. That is why people above level 6 are called elites. In major forces, people above level 6 are rare and outstanding talents.

Yang Yi’s level has just reached level 6. It is unrealistic to upgrade to level 7 in the short term, so he hopes to improve his strength through equipment.

“My current level is level 6. If I have a set of epic equipment, can I defeat a level 7 hydra?” Yang Yi asked Jerrick.

Jerrick shook his head and said, “Level 6 and level 7 are the difference between ordinary and elite. The gap in strength between the two cannot be easily eliminated by equipment.”

“That is to say, even if I have a good set of equipment, I still can’t help.” Yang Yi was a little discouraged.

“Having a good set of equipment may not help you defeat the hydra, but at least it can give you more self-protection ability when facing it.” Jerrick comforted him.

Yang Yi nodded. It is also good to have more chances to save his life at critical moments.

After finishing a table of stewed chocobos, Jerick lay down on the bed in the inn and fell asleep. Yang Yi also stayed in the inn.

The Deadwater Village was particularly dead tonight. The battle during the day made the fishmen depressed and went to bed early.

The next day, the sun was shining brightly in the Barren Land.

Yang Yi woke up. After getting up, he went to see Slark first and found that he was still asleep.

Fortunately, Slark’s breathing and heartbeat were normal, and it seemed that he would not be in danger of life.

Jerick, who was in the bed next to him, was still sleeping soundly. The tauren’s injury had not recovered yet. Although Jerick downplayed his injury, his injury could not be healed by eating a meal and sleeping.

Yang Yi was afraid of disturbing Slark and Jerick, so he left the inn lightly.

Outside the door of the inn, a little fishman sat on the ground with his legs crossed. He was a little fishman with an empty wine barrel.

When the little fishman Kong Jiutong saw Yang Yi coming out, he jumped up and ran to Yang Yi.

“What are you doing sitting at the door?” Yang Yi asked.

“The mayor said before that he wanted to know the current situation of Dead Water Village. Kong Jiutong is waiting at the door and wants to take the mayor to see it.” The little fishman Kong Jiutong said.

Yang Yi felt very novel. He was just thinking about taking a walk in Dead Water Village, but he didn’t expect that this little fishman would take the initiative to take him to understand the current situation of Dead Water Village.

It seems that this clever little fishman is worth cultivating.

Yang Yi stretched out his big fishman hand and touched the head of the little fishman Kong Jiutong, praising: “Very good, promising, this lord is optimistic about you.”

The little fishman Kong Jiutong was praised by Yang Yi, and he stomped his feet happily and turned in circles.

Next, Yang Yi followed the little fishman Kong Jiutong to walk around Dead Water Village.

The layout of Dead Water Village is mainly divided into two areas.

The largest area is the living area of ​​the murlocs. This area is separated by two nearly parallel town level 3 earthen walls in the north and south. The two walls extend to the lake of the Dead Water Oasis in the west, and the east is connected to the steep cliffs of Thunder Peak.

Rows of murloc huts have been built in the murloc living area, as well as murloc village buildings such as murloc nursery pools, murloc hunter training camps, and patrol murloc training camps. In addition, there are general buildings such as warehouses, animal taming pens, tanneries, barracks, and armories.

A square area is enclosed by the town level 3 earthen wall to the north of the murloc residential area, plus three town level 1 earthen walls.

This square area is a residential area for adventurers and a commercial area open to the public.

These three level 4 walls were slowly built by murloc builders after the craftsmen of the Defias Brotherhood left.

In addition, murloc builders also built inns, auction houses, arenas, food and beverage stores, grocery stores, weapon stores, armory stores, etc.

In order to defend against the attacks of centaurs, the walls of Deadwater Village were built very high, but its scale was only level 3 at best, so Yang Yi followed the little fishman empty barrel and quickly walked around Deadwater Village.

After Yang Yi came to the commercial area, he found that there were many shops here, but there were not many customers, and it looked very depressed.

“Before, the adventurers shouted that we should build the houses quickly, but now the houses are built but there are not many people?” Yang Yi was puzzled.

“Mayor, the adventurers were allowed to enter the crossroads, and they all ran away.” The little fishman empty barrel explained.

“I see.”

The crossroads is located at the traffic throat of the barren land and is also an important town of the tribe. Before, the crossroads was basically not open to adventurers like other villages and towns of the tribe, so adventurers were interested in Deadwater Village.

Now that the chief of the tribe has issued a new policy, adventurers have begun to be accepted by the tribe, and adventurers are naturally flocking to it.

“If there’s no one in the commercial district, there’s no small amount of money. We have to think of a way to lure the adventurers back.” Yang Yi thought to himself.
