The Place Where Everything Begins

After seeing the four knives' information, Jeremy nodded his head in approval at those four's abilities and skills, which were considered pretty decent among Rare-ranked items.

'There are four rare-ranked knives, all of them can only be bought once as after that they will disappear from the Exchange forever. Hmm... It looks like only two of them are somewhat decent...'

Having thought until here, Jeremy dismissed the [Knives] interface before accessing the other ones to see if there was anything that might attract his interest or not. Starting with the [Axes], [Bows], [Crossbows], [Clubs], [Daggers], [Maces], [Polearms], and lastly, [Swords].

Unfortunately, nothing was eyecatching enough to get Jeremy's attention as he looked past them one after another.

After skimming over the [Weapons] interface, Jeremy shook his head slightly before proceeding to the [Armors] one.

Soon, more than six options consisting of the words about human body parts showed up before Jeremy...

...

[Head]

[Body]

[Arms]

[Hands]

[Legs]

[Boots]

...

Like always, Jeremy looked at the items within those six options one by one, albeit only choosing to look at the Rare-ranked ones.

From Jeremy's observation, he saw those six options only had one or two Rare-ranked armors at most, unlike the weapons option, which had at least three or four each.

For example, within the [Body] option, Jeremy could see many sub-options such as [Breastplates], [Lamella Armors], [Leather Armors], [Mail Armors], [Plate Armors], and [Scale Armors]. For each of those types of armors, there would be one or two Rare-ranked ones.

'From all types of armors, there are only two or three pieces with somewhat decent skills, which can be considered useful to me. As for other things... well, rather than benefiting me, they will hinder my high-speed movement instead.'

Having thought until this point, Jeremy could only look on in disappointment because the armors were too unfit for him. For him, wearing those Rare-ranked armors might not be as good as wearing regular clothes as he wore right now.

After finishing his search for a suitable armor to buy, it appeared that except for the leather armor, any other type of armor hadn't managed to get into Jermey's eyes at all because they were too burdensome to wear and utilize.

Despite the fact that these Rare-ranked armors were pretty hard to acquire and considered very precious within the human kingdoms, still, within Jeremy's eyes, those items were a bit better than garbage at most.

It appeared that Jeremy's standards about armors were pretty high that might even be too high compared to most people; just a Rare-grade couldn't satisfy him the slightest bit.

Right now, Jeremy's mana field projection's defensive capabilities might even be greater than those Rare-ranked armors.

Moreover, Jermey's mana field projection would get stronger and stronger after every breakthrough into higher classes, so it was expected that those things didn't get his attention.

That's why except for the leather armors that had some decent abilities and skills, which wouldn't hinder Jeremy's movement, other things were ignored by him entirely.

At this moment, Jeremy's eyes suddenly lit up as he had suddenly thought of something crucial,

'Come to think of it now... There are no more than ten known Epic-ranked items within the human kingdoms. Meanwhile, the circulation of Rare-ranked items is in the hundreds or so, which simply means the Rare-ranked item is considered a top-grade item that most humans covet to own.'

'If I release even a single Rare item into the market, I will become a rich guy in no time...'

In fact, to acquire a Rare weapon or armor inside the Tutorial's second stage was pretty hard because one had to kill at least forty opponents to earn enough Kill Points to buy those items.

Meanwhile, acquiring a Rare weapon or armor within the human kingdoms was even more challenging than earning them here.

The reason was that the human race's crafting technology wasn't quite up to par and couldn't produce their own Epic items. As for the Rare-ranked item, it was pretty challenging to craft a single of them; currently, only the mages with high status could do that.

However, it was something else entirely for Jeremy as he had a perfect way to earn those Rare-ranked items.

If Jeremy wanted to, he could just go slaughter the entire kenku camp right now. Subsequently, he could buy many Rare-ranked items and become a true-blue weapon dealer on Ortus.

At this time, Jeremy seemed to be engrossed within his own ideas of making easy money on Ortus...

"Tommy, why are you smirking so evilly? Is your ranking that good?"

A voice was suddenly heard from Jeremy's left side, accompanied by the footsteps of the speaker, coming towards Jeremy's direction.

Having heard those words, Jeremy dismissed the interface ahead of him by retracting his hand from the giant Crystal as he had already finished looking at the Rare items.

"Something like that..."

Jeremy turned left side to reply to Morgan, whom had just finished his business with his fellow scout team leader.

"Oh? If you don't mind, can you tell me your current ranking?"

Morgan replied with a big smile on his face as if planning something mischievous within his mind.

"Well, I've killed only five, so I'm ninth in the rankings," replied Jeremy with a slight shrug of his shoulders as he didn't care much about his immediate ranking.

"Not bad, not bad. My ranking is a bit higher than yours, though. I'm ranked eighth, by the way."

Morgan said with an even bigger smile while broadening up his chest slightly after knowing that he ranked higher than the overpowering Tommy.

It appeared that Morgan just only wanted to flex his achievement, after all.

Jeremy could only shake his head before opening his mouth to ask a question,

"Do you know who ranks first, second, and third in the rankings right now?"

This question was considered decently crucial for Jeremy because he wanted to know if the butterfly effects were significant enough to change even the first three rankings or not.
