Re: Evolution Online-Chapter 842: New updates?

"This!" Alex couldn't believe her eyes. Others were also equally shocked.

All the fairies in the shop started murmuring to each other in hushed whispers. It looked like they were able to tell the grade of the weapon by just looking at it.

Perhaps they also had an Inspect skill like the one Liam had purchased. At least, that's what he assumed.

He knew that, at the moment, he was drawing attention to himself. However, he did that for a reason.

And the next second, this 'reason' actually stood up from her desk and finally walked out to show her face again.

The store manager Tilia batted her eyes, flashing a smile at Liam.

Many of the new members were extremely shocked at this behaviour, but the old members had seen a lot more, so they did not particularly pay any attention to her.

Similarly, Liam also did not pay much attention to her. He politely nodded back but then quickly went back to ignoring her.

"Are you going to take it or not?" He winked at Alex.

"This... this is an epic-grade shield and an epic-grade sword?" Alex gulped.

She extended her trembling hands and carefully accepted the weapons as if she were accepting a newborn baby into her arms.

Her eyes wandered lovingly over the weapons she had longed for day and night for so long.

"Brother! This is so unfair!" Rey's eyes were locked onto the amazing set of weapons as well. He had only received a random bow, but Alex had received an epic-grade gear set? Nothing was fair in this world!

Liam shook his head helplessly and raised his hand to pat the guy on the back. "Since you are cheating, you would have to reach Level 25 to get the items, not Level 20 like the others."

"Bro..."

Rey looked dejected, and his head drooped down as if he were drowning in misery, but the next second, Alex swatted him on the head. "Stop messing around. Let's remember where we are."

"Huh? So you remembered where you were when you asked bro for the items?" Rey scowled, but Alex ignored him and went back to admiring and getting accustomed to her new equipment.

"Tch. Tch. So unfair. So unfair."

Liam knew better than to intervene in the friendly fire between the siblings, so he side-stepped them and walked over to Deming.

"Here you go." To Deming's surprise, he handed him a pair of daggers as well.

Deming did not even have to look closely. Just a single glance told him that this pair of weapons was on a completely different level than the ones he was using.

What were they even made of?

As an all-rounder, he had some amount of knowledge in smithing and such, especially when it came to traditional weapons. But he was entirely unable to recognize the metal these daggers were made from.

He looked at them for a couple of seconds and could only draw one conclusion. These were very valuable. Far more valuable for Liam to be simply handing them over to him.

"Ah... I..." He stammered, looking up at the enigmatic guy only to see a gentle smile.

"Don't worry about it. You are a part of the team now." Liam patted him.

No way! Immediately, both Alex and Rey turned to look at the pair of daggers in Deming's hands.

For a second, they were worried that Liam had been too impulsive. Only after they confirmed that it was not Shen Yue's legendary daggers did they let out a sigh of relief.

It was not that they had anything against Deming per se, but they had known the guy for not that long, so they were not comfortable sharing their legendary grade items.

Liam laughed at the duo's reaction.

He also looked at Deming and added. "I will be honest with you. I have a better pair of daggers with me, but to win that, you would have to beat another member of the group."

Oh? Deming's interest was piqued, but he quickly shook his head.

"Mr Liam, that would not be necessary. I am satisfied with what you have given me right now. I will first earn my place before aiming higher." Since Liam was straightforward with him, he also did not beat around the bush.

"Alright. At least stop calling me so formally all the time. We are all going to fight together from now on, trusting each other to watch our backs. So no need to be so distant."

Liam patted him and moved on to the next task at hand. He still had to distribute weapons to a bunch of others, but for now, he first wanted to take a look at the new guild upgrade.

Still ignoring Tilia, he silently opened the system interface without sparing the fairy another glance.

Tilia obviously noticed this as the fairy's face twitched. However, she as well remained silent. This was because... she knew something Liam did not know.

There was a surprise waiting for him, and she sneered inwardly as she wondered how the human being was going to handle the challenge.

Meanwhile, Liam browsed the guild interface. His gaze went through the various details only to see that the upgrade was quite a simple one.

They had basically unlocked another tier, which enabled them to organize the guild members in a more elaborate fashion.

They could now have members and non-members, who were essentially members on a waitlist.

Also, the total number of people who could register for the guild had also increased. Not that they hit this limit in the first place.

Other than these couple of changes, there was also the option to select a small territory as a guild residence. This basically only allowed people from the specific guild residence to inhabit that particular territory.

"Hmmm... this is new." Liam frowned. His gaze then shifted to check if these fairies were charging more fees for establishing a guild residence and marking a specific territory as theirs.
