Aside from the rare-tier Giant Strength Bracelet, which Wang Zhifan found quite practical, he also acquired a rare-tier necklace with decent attributes while eliminating a spirit-type elite monster.

[Inspiration of the Evil Spirit (Rare)]

[When you wear this necklace, all your skill levels increase by 1 (maximum skill level increased to Lv7).]

[Wearing this necklace grants you an "Inspiration" aura within a 60-meter radius.]

[Inspiration: you and all allies experience an 8% speed increase and immunity to fear effects.]

The reason Wang Zhifan felt this necklace was pretty good was firstly because it boosts skill levels without differentiating between skill types. As long as you possess the skill, it can be enhanced by one level. Although this enhancement has an upper limit of Lv7, Wang Zhifan currently possesses skills below Lv7, and he is sure to acquire new skills in the future. At that time, the necklace's effect will become even more prominent.

Additionally, there's the "Inspiration" aura attached to this necklace. At first glance, it doesn't seem particularly strong, only offering an 8% speed boost. However, it constantly affects groups and includes immunity to fear as a group buffing effect. It can be very practical not only for summoner professions but also in scenarios where teams participate in dungeon raids.

Apart from the pleasant surprise of these two items, Wang Zhifan obtained other rare-tier equipment by eliminating other elite monsters; however, those items aren't very suitable for him, like the rare-tier longsword he chose without any other option.

[Ice Sharp Blade (Rare)]

[This longsword is extremely cold; when it hits a target, it reduces their movement and attack speed by 25% and inflicts a certain amount of ice damage, penetrates an additional 35% of the target's physical resistance upon attack.]

Although this ice attribute longsword is quite good, it's utterly useless to Wang Zhifan. Because he wields a far more powerful Ice Source Force, he can directly freeze enemies into ice sculptures from a distance and can completely freeze them from afar, rendering this weapon's ice slowing effect unnecessary.

After busying himself, Wang Zhifan returned to the entrance of the monster lair, then left stealthily.

This was because he noticed that after defeating the underground BOSS, the monsters surrounding the lair seemed to become frenzied and started attacking each other chaotically. Since they were mostly low in strength, Wang Zhifan didn't want to be overwhelmed by reward notifications for their elimination, so he promptly fled, leaving these ordinary monsters for others to handle later.

"It's time to change equipment."

Having distanced himself from the monster lair, which had lost its elites and leader, Wang Zhifan returned to a quiet corner in the expansive wilderness to begin adjusting his equipment.

Because he was in a very dark environment while eliminating those monsters, he needed to pay attention to combat with the enemies and couldn't immediately update his worn equipment. But now, back on the bright surface, he could do this.

First, he took out the rare-tier Hunger Belt to examine it, finding its appearance quite peculiar. It was primarily white, interspersed with a little crimson, looking like two rows of long teeth joined together to form a belt, appearing somewhat creepy.

"Why is this belt so ugly?"

Even though Wang Zhifan wasn't much bothered by the appearance of equipment, he couldn't help but frown at this moment. However, the real reason he didn't immediately switch to this belt was that he felt slightly hungry.

"The belt provides attribute boosts only when in a fully-fed state. In a normal state, there's healing, but in a hungry state, there's only negative effects. My appetite is already substantial, and wearing it may leave me short on supplies, which wouldn't be conducive to my survival in the coming days."

Thinking it over, Wang Zhifan mulled over the specific effects of the belt for a moment before stowing it back in his space pouch, opting to continue wearing his existing Iron Mountain Belt.

Actually, the Iron Mountain Belt had little practical significance for him now. His defensive abilities were extremely strong, making the physical resistance added by the belt negligible. Whether he wore it or not wouldn't impact combat, but at least it had no negative effects, so wearing it as a regular belt was acceptable.

Then, he retrieved the rare-tier Giant Strength Bracelet and observed its design, which was more orderly than the Hunger Belt. It was crafted from some sort of rough black and brown leather, looking full of strength.

Quickly, Wang Zhifan removed the fine-layer Frenzy Bracelet from his wrist and put on the Giant Strength Bracelet. Immediately, he felt his forearm being slightly constricted, prompting a slight feedback from his body, as if some additional bodily strength had been activated.

He promptly checked his personal panel and noticed his four major attributes as follows:

[Constitution: 55.]

[Strength: 54.]

[Agility: 55.]

[Spirit: 61.]

It was clear that his strength attribute had increased to 54 points under the influence of the Giant Strength Bracelet, a notable improvement from the previous 47 points. Although this attribute was still the lowest among the four major attributes, it was now on par with the others, no longer lagging behind.

"Since the Frenzy Bracelet has been removed, the Fury Gloves that pair with it can also retire."

Wang Zhifan then took off the fine-layer Fury Gloves he had been wearing, as the Fury Gloves, without the Frenzy Bracelet, only provided a small defensive benefit, which Wang Zhifan didn't need. During this process, he also removed the three rings attached to the gloves and put them back on his left hand fingers. From now on, he would appear slightly more discreet, wearing three rings directly on his left hand fingers instead of on gloves.

"Let's put on the Inspiration of the Evil Spirit necklace; surely wearing two necklaces shouldn't be an issue?"

Unlike wearing two pairs of bracelets which isn't feasible, Wang Zhifan didn't remove his old necklace, "Chapter of Obscurity," when he took out the new rare-tier necklace, "Inspiration of the Evil Spirit." Despite the uncertain passive effect of "collusion" requiring testing to verify its impact, the 7% obscurity damage increase was quite good, so Wang Zhifan wasn't inclined to replace it, opting to wear both necklaces simultaneously.

Checking if the two necklaces were effective was simple. He promptly opened his personal panel and looked at his skills section, where he found one of his skills had already leveled up.
