Chapter 1757 1757: The Cost of Reforging

"Me?"

"It seems that way."

When Crotch Lord said this, Wang Yu was taken aback at first, then suddenly remembered that his forging technique indeed came from the Titan race.

"Really?"

As soon as Wang Yu said this, Crotch Lord was almost jumping with excitement, grabbing Wang Yu and saying, "Brother Bull, you are like my reborn parents!"

"Hehe!" Before Wang Yu could say anything, Spring Halo chuckled from the side, "Since that's the case, we must be your uncles and grandfathers. Hurry up and call people over; otherwise, I won't let Brother Bull help you."

"Exactly!" Ming Du and the others chimed in, cheering wildly.

"Get lost!" Crotch Lord shot a fierce glare at the crowd.

Damn it, this group of bastards never has anything serious on their minds; they can't resist taking advantage.

Wang Yu stroked his chin and contemplated, "I can help you, but you need to be mentally prepared for the materials."

Wang Yu was quite clear about his forging skills. The ability to transform blueprints into equipment is called reforging, and Wang Yu's Fire Dragon Magic Gun was a? weapon reforged from a model blueprint, with very powerful attributes.

However, one thing was certain: the materials required for reforging weapons were quite astonishing—much more than what was needed for crafting from blueprints, and they were all rare materials. The Fire Dragon Magic Gun was merely a Obsidian piece of equipment, and the materials required for it could give even the most talented player a headache. Crotch Lord's Demon Armor, however, was a piece of god-level BOSS armor, definitely legendary equipment. The materials needed for it were certainly not a small number; it was likely that just one go could leave Crotch Lord back to square one. Wang Yu had to give Crotch Lord a warning beforehand.

"Of course, of course!" Crotch Lord nodded repeatedly, saying, "I have my own preparations for the materials."

"Alright then", Wang Yu said. "You first give me the Demon Armor, and I'll see if I can reforge it."

"Okay!"

Crotch Lord took out the model of the Demon Armor and handed it to Wang Yu.

Wang Yu received the model and opened the reforging option in the forging interface, casually placing the Demon Armor inside.

"This…"

At first glance, Wang Yu was prepared, but seeing the materials required to reforge the Demon Armor made his head spin.

Damn it, dozens of rare materials were densely listed on a whole page.

Usually, the rare materials like refined gold and secret silver used for crafting equipment were listed in groups and placed at the end.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing the expression on Wang Yu's face, not only Crotch Lord but everyone from the Quan Zhen Sect felt a sudden jolt in their hearts. Fearless couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that the Demon Armor can't be reforged?"

"It can!"

Wang Yu replied with a complex expression, then took a screenshot and sent it to the guild channel.

"This…"

Upon seeing Wang Yu's screenshot, everyone from Quan Zhen immediately fell silent.

Well, these guys from Quan Zhen were no strangers to big scenes; they had seen ancient equipments before, but seeing the materials required for the Demon Armor, even though they were all wealthy individuals, they couldn't help but gasp in shock.

This is no longer reforging equipment; this is basically throwing money into a bottomless pit! If it weren't for the fact that these materials had to be bought from players, everyone would even suspect this was a malicious method by the system to siphon off gold coins.

"Old Crotch…"

After a long while, everyone regained their composure. Spring Halo patted Crotch Lord's shoulder and said earnestly, "Brother, there's something I'm not sure if I should say."

"Brother Spring, go ahead", Crotch Lord replied with a glum face.

At this moment, no one felt more conflicted than Crotch Lord. Divine God-grade equipments, especially genuine ones like the Demon Armor, were priceless. However, if he chose to reforge this God-grade equipment, he might end up spending all his savings.

They say good things can't be bought with money, but when it really can be bought, it's even more overwhelming.

This was clearly forcing Crotch Lord to choose between the ancient equipment and going bankrupt…

"Well…" Spring Halo said, "It doesn't matter whether you play the game or not; money decreases with every penny spent. If you really decide to invest all your funds into this equipment, you must think it through."

Spring Halo was a family man with a job, and every expenditure in the game was meticulously calculated. While playing games is all about having fun, as the eldest brother of Quan Zhen Sect, Spring Halo felt it was necessary to remind him at this moment.

After all, Crotch Lord wasn't like Fearless or Boson, who had stable jobs, nor was he a wealthy second-generation like Wang Yu. Everyone playing the game hoped to make money, but even if they couldn't, their spending needed to be rational; after all, a game is just a game.

"I…"

With Spring Halo's reminder, Crotch Lord glanced at the list of materials in front of him and felt even more conflicted.

"I'll say something!"

Just when Crotch Lord didn't know how to choose, Fearless suddenly spoke up, "Aren't we Quan Zhen Sect just relying on Old Crotch as the tank?"

"Nonsense! Are you going to tank?" Boson scoffed.

"Hehe!" Fearless chuckled and continued, "Since that's the case, I think this piece of equipment isn't just for him alone."

"What do you mean? Just say it directly, don't beat around the bush." The others urged Fearless when they saw he was being so coy.

"Alright!" Fearless nodded and said, "Old Crotch forges equipment to protect us. Its significance is as great as my resurrection skill. I think the cost of reforging this equipment should be borne collectively by our guild. I wonder if anyone has any objections."

"I have no objections." Wang Yu was the first to respond as soon as Fearless finished speaking.

Everyone ignored Wang Yu; who didn't know this kid was rolling in wealth? Moreover, the main financial burden for making equipment came from the materials, and everyone knew who he would buy from. Wang Yu's words were essentially meaningless.

"I have no objections either!"

As soon as Wang Yu finished speaking, Spring Halo also made his decision.

"Eh?"

Seeing Spring Halo agree, everyone was immediately stunned.

They were all playing together, and everyone knew that Spring Halo had a wife and kids, plus he had to pay for a house and a car. Relative to others, he bore a heavier financial burden in Quan Zhen Sect, and his purpose in playing games was also to earn some extra pocket money to support his family, so he was the most rational when it came to spending in the game.

The materials consumed by Crotch Lord's Demon Armor were too much; even if shared among everyone in Quan Zhen, it would still be a significant expenditure. Unexpectedly, Spring Halo was the first person to agree to share the burden, apart from Wang Yu.

"Since Brother Spring has said so, how can we have any objections?"

Originally, everyone was single, so they had no concept of spending in games. They had no objections to sharing costs. Now, even Spring Halo had agreed, so the others no longer hesitated and expressed their willingness to share the reforging costs.
