Arthur had finished packing most of his clothes, and minor things by 8 pm. Done with this, he simply ate dinner and lounged around until the Cooldown was over for him.

~Ding~

A notification popped up on Arthur's phone, showing him that he could now enter the game.

"Time to log in." Arthur opened the lid of the Dream Pod V3 and got in.

With the flash of colors, Arthur arrived at the inn that he had left before.

"Let's get to work," Arthur said before picking up his rucksack and leaving the inn.

His first destination today was the Armorer, as he wished to get some new armor pieces today. 

"Hmm… the guard presence seems higher today." Arthur noticed as he walked around.

There were more guards patrolling than before, and some of the NPCs also seemed to be a bit tense.

'Did something happen in these two days?' Arthur wondered.

Considering the changes from his past life, Arthur reckoned it could have been more infiltrations by the bandits. 

"Guess I'll just ask the NPCs." Lin Mu muttered as he arrived at the Armorer's shop.

There the man was polishing a shield and had a pile of them laying next to him.

"Can I buy some armor and get mine repaired, too?" Arthur asked the man.

The armorer looked up and spotted the familiar face.

"Ah, you're back. Took you a while. I thought you left." The Armorer remembered him.

"Not for long," Arthur replied. "Can I take a look at your wares?" He inquired.

"Show me what you wanna get fixed first." The armorer asked. 

"What I'm wearing basically." Arthur replied.

"Hmm… remove them so I can take a closer look." The man said.

A few seconds later, Arthur unequipped the items and placed them on the table.

~Ding~

——

Hand Armor: Reinforced Bull Leather Gloves

[Defense: 5] [Durability: 64/100]

Chest Armor: Reinforced Bull Leather Chest Armor 

[Defense: 14] [Durability: 55/100]

Leg Armor: Reinforced Bull Leather Greaves

[Defense: 8] [Durability: 74/100]

Arthur glanced at the stats of the armor and saw the fallen durability. While had avoided head-on conflicts for the most part, there were still hits he had taken.

Then there was the damage that was sustained from other things than enemy attacks like crashing into things, or making contact with other objects. Even actions like rolling or blocking could result in damage to one's armor.

And considering the fact that Arthur had used it quite a lot, it was time for him to repair it already.

Though this was a normal thing for players. Arthur had actually managed to extend it for a couple of days. And even then he hadn't damaged his armor to the point of breaking it.

It was still above 50% duality for all parts and was considered to be still good. Many players wouldn't even think about spending money on repairing their armor until it was below thirty or twenty percent.

That was when the warnings would start appearing.

Though for the newbies, it was something that was difficult to manage. As they would often fall from above fifty to less than ten percent durability in a single conflict if it went bad.

"Fixing this won't be an issue. Just need to patch it up and mend the tears." The armorer replied.

"That's good," Arthur said. "I also want more armor pieces, though."

"Sure, what kind of armor pieces are you looking for today?" The armorer asked.

"I need some good boots that are stable as well as some headgear." Arthur answered.

"Hmm…" the armorer stroked his beard while observing Arthur.

His eyes scanned all over his body and noticed the spear that was attached to his back.

"Since you use a spear, it is important for you to have a balanced stance for optimum power." The Armorer spoke. "At the same time, you need to have a clear view of your opponents, thus a fully enclosed helmet won't be correct for you either." He was analyzing what would suit Arthur.

The man muttered to himself for a minute before deciding.

"Come with me," he said before taking Arthur to one of the shelves. "Take a look at these boots." He picked up a pair of black boots that had dark leather soles on them.

There was also metal padding on it that provided some extra defense. 

'Dragon's Insight!' Arthur used the skill.
