Chapter 324: Completing the Craft
Lysandra nodded after hearing Shane's simple evaluation of the pieces of wood she bought...
"I thought so too. I know it was a lot of money, but I think it will be worth it." She replied.
Shane smiled, appreciating her effort.
"Thanks for getting these. With these materials, I might be able to create something extraordinary."
He then cleared up his table as he decided to start working with the Moonwood and Starwood.
After a few minutes, Shane was able to create two tokens. This time, he didn't focus on making healing-type tokens since they were too expensive.
After some consideration, he decided to just use his Drifterwood Healing Token to negotiate with the Shelter Lord.
The reason was simple: it was actually a lot cheaper!
The Crimsonheart was five gold coins per piece, and the Pixie Oak was worth seven gold coins. On the other hand, the Drifterwood was only four gold coins each piece!
As for the Moonwood and Starwood, which were worth 20 and 15 gold coins, respectively, they were certainly not the best option here. Even if he makes Healing Tokens out of them, it would probably be just for his clan or recruits.
"Eh?"
After infusing the tokens with his Phantasm Rush and Aura of Protection, he felt that the pieces of carved wood were still capable of having another Skill.
"I also want to see how many Spirit Points I'll use this time…" Shane muttered as he decided to just add the Fast Regeneration.
In the end, he realized that it consumed 150 Spirit Points! That was already quite a lot! There might even be some weak survivors who only had that many Spirit Points.
Nonetheless, he confirmed this time that the first infusion was worth 50 Spirit Points. The second one was actually 75 Spirits, and the third one was worth 150 Spirit Points.
Of course, according to his Skill Infuser Talent description: "The greater the skills you choose to imbue, the more Spirit Points you must expend to activate this talent."
This was why he was expecting to only spend 50 Spirit Points at this third infusion. However, it appears that aside from this rule, there was another rule about the cost increase relative to the number of infusions made.
'Anyway, this effect is much better than I thought… I'm really getting a lot stronger.' Shane thought to himself as he looked at the effects of the tokens he had just created.
[ Moonwood Haste Token: Crafted from a rare Moonwood, this Token gleams with a silvery hue that reflects the soft glow of the moon. When activated, it imbues the user with strong protection and provides a mysterious movement technique, allowing them to move with haste effortlessly. With its soft glow, it also grants a weak healing effect to the user.
Effect:
Phantasm Rush: Grants a boost in agility and stealth and increases overall movement speed by 140% for 30 seconds.
Cost: 50 Spirit Points
Protection Aura ( Passive ): Surrounds the user with a shield that deflects incoming damage during the Phantasm Rush. Unstackable.
Health Regeneration ( Passive ): Restores 5 Vitality Points per hour. Unstackable.
Usage: 35/35
Remarks: made by Shadow Strider ]
"This is really good…" Shane muttered in excitement after seeing the first Token.
The Phantasm Rush Skill he currently has in his set of skills also costs 50 Spirit Points, but it could only last for 10 seconds.
On the other hand, the effect of the Phantasm Rush from the Token could last 30 seconds! The only problem was that instead of a 200% base increase, it was only 140%...
There was still a huge difference with the speed it could grant him. However, considering the fact that he doesn't have to spend Spirit Points for the Protection Aura and Health Regeneration, it was still the best, in his opinion.
He then passed it over to Lysandra so she could check it herself. Well, she looked really curious after seeing his reaction.
'It's a pity that the regeneration is also unstackable. No matter how many tokens I have, it will only give me 5 points per hour.
Then, he turned to the next item.
[ Starwood Mighty Token: Forged from the rare Starwood, this token sparkles with strange light, reminiscent of the stars that illuminate the night sky. The Starwood Token is imbued with mystical energy, granting its user the ability to execute the Phantasm Rush flawlessly and providing various benefits to the user.
Effect:
Phantasm Rush: Grants a boost in agility and stealth and increases overall movement speed by 150% for 20 seconds.
Cost: 40 Spirit Points
Protection Aura: Provides a shield that absorbs up to incoming damage.
Cost: 20 Spirit Points
Fast Regeneration ( Passive ): Restores 5 Vitality Points per hour. Unstackable.
Usage: 30/30
Remarks: made by Shadow Strider ]
'Mhmm… This is acceptable.' Shane gently nodded as he saw the effects. Since it also consumed 275 Spirit Points per Token, he believed that it wasn't that bad at all.
After this, Shane spent some time carving new tokens and gave them similar effects.
Moonwood Haste Token x30
Starwood Mighty Token x30
All in all, he spent 16,500 Spirit Points to make them all! As a result, he also consumed 3 Enhanced Spirit Recovery Pills that could grant him 50% of his maximum Spirit Points.
Thanks to that, each pill could grant him 5,000 Spirit Points!
Shane then instructed Lysandra to buy more Drifterwood in the previous shop he had visited. He then gave her 40 more gold coins to buy ten pieces of them.
After all of that was arranged, Shane spent the rest of the day carving tokens. Anyway, even if the Shelter Lord decided not to purchase them and give them a reward, he could still sell them in the Marketplace, and he knew that he would be able to earn a lot of Zombie Cores in the process.
Of course, Shane wasn't able to use all ten pieces of them and only used 20 pieces. Nonetheless, that still made him use 30,000 Spirit Points!
In short, this made him consume six more Enhanced Spirit Recovery Pills! Each of them was worth 75 Zombie Cores, so he still spent 450 cores!
