Chapter 28: Arcane Crystal!
After hearing McRae’s affirmative reply,
Jack exclaimed,
“Hurry up and bring me with you, I’m a rookie Arcane Mage!”
“Respectable dungeon killer! God McRae!”
Looking at his friend’s exaggerated expression, McRae scolded jokingly,
“That’s enough. You’re so disgusting that I’m about to vomit my food.”
“I have something to do now, so I don’t have time to take you.”
McRae looked at the silent Jack,
who didn’t look very happy.
He said lightly,
“Oh well. I originally wanted to give you a top-grade item, but since you’re so unwilling, forget it.”
After saying that, McRae sighed and sat in front of the computer, pretending to be regretful.

Hearing this, Jack immediately grabbed McRae who was sitting down. There was no resentment on his face!
He said ingratiatingly,
“I knew you’d be loyal! What kind of item is that? Can it help me clear the dungeon?!”
McRae opened his storage unit.
He took out the Arcane Crystal and said,
“This is it.”
Looking at the puzzled Jack,
McRae patiently explained:
“Don’t look down on this Arcane Crystal.”
“After using the Arcane Crystal, you will receive a permanent Arcane Halo buff.”
Jack looked at the sphere-like Arcane Crystal and asked,
“Arcane Halo?”
McRae continued,
“This item is extremely rare. I didn’t even get the First Clear of the Instance Dungeon, but still I got such an amazing item.”
“Arcane Crystal, it’s a top-grade tool exclusive to you magic users!”
Arcane Crystal, after use, would give the summoner a permanent single-target halo buff.
The effect of the Arcane Aura was huge.
It could greatly increase the recovery speed of Arcane Mages, as well as reducing skill cooldown.
The degree of reduction increased with the level of the Arcane Aura.

An Arcane Mage with an Arcane Aura, was equivalent to having a magic charging device.
The Arcane Aura could be upgraded, too,
So in the later stages of the game, top-notch Arcane Wizards would try their best to purchase the Arcane Crystal.
All to upgrade the Arcane Aura.
The effect of the Level 3 Arcane Aura was already very obvious.
When it reached level five,
Basically, this made you pretty invincible.
However, the drop rate of Arcane Crystals was extremely rare.
Usually, there was not even a single Arcane Crystal in the market. It was an awkward situation where there was a demand but no market.
Arcane Wizards with Fifth-level Arcane Auras were extremely terrifying.
In his previous life, McRae had fought with an Arcane Mage who had a Fifth-level Arcane Aura.
The two of them had a conflict because of something.

At that time, McRae had underestimated the power of the Fifth-level Arcane Aura.
An Arcane Mage with a Fifth-level Arcane Aura… was like a magic machine gun.
He cast all sorts of skills as if he didn’t need any mana.
The Arcane Wizard went all out, and actually prevented McRae from getting close to him.
In the end, the other party’s backup arrived, and McRae had to retreat temporarily.
Even though McRae found an opportunity to kill him when he was alone afterwards,
that crazy firepower…
It left a deep impression on McRae.

…
After Jack heard McRae’s explanation,
He opened his laptop and logged into the game.
He urged impatiently,
“As expected of a good brother!”
“Fast, give it to me!”
McRae looked at the anxious Jack.
He had no choice but to use the teleportation circle to head to Novice Village #567 where Jack was and traded the Arcane Crystal with him.
Jack looked at the fully armed McRae.
He said enviously,
“What equipment are you wearing?”
“They look pretty good! Especially this silver-white sword!”
McRae didn’t hide it and shared it with Jack.
“It’s nothing. Other than the Lubbock Sword, there’s also the Deceiver’s Chain.”
“The rest are just temporary trash.”

Jack looked at McRae’s black iron armor.
Then, he looked at the two Whiteboard Equipment that he had painstakingly obtained.
A punch landed on McRae’s shoulder.
“You brat! Are you trying to piss me off?!”
Then, he used the Arcane Crystal.
A translucent, faintly discernible hexagram array appeared under Jack’s feet.
It made Jack look like an expert.
Jack looked at the beautiful array under his feet in surprise and said happily,
“Haha, this Mysterious Water Halo looks pretty good! It fits the temperament of an expert like me!”
“But this light is too faint. If only it was a little brighter!”
McRae looked at his friend speechlessly and shook his head.
“The brightness of this halo will increase as the level of the halo increases.”
Looking at Jack, who was already using his character to hook up with female players,
McRae sighed helplessly.
“As expected, no matter how many times he was reborn, this guy is still the same.”
