[Giant Axe Double Sword Blueprint: Allows crafting of two Giant Axe Swords. Required materials: Level 4: Fire Ant’s Eel*2, Level 4 Crystal Core*2, Iron Block x30, Steel Wire x30, Screw x30, Nails x30]

[Giant Axe Double Swords: Attributes unknown]

[Perception Ring Blueprint: Allows crafting of two Perception Rings. Required materials: Level 4: Fire Ant Antennae*2, Level 4 Crystal Core*2]

[Perception Ring: Attributes unknown]

These two blueprints, one can craft two swords and the other can craft two rings. This is basically like getting a two-for-one deal.

Wang Tao started crafting immediately.

Seconds later, the double swords were first to be completed.

[Giant Axe Double Swords]

[Fourth-tier (Excellence)]

[Durability +70, Attack Power +70]

The two Giant Axe Double Swords had identical designs: both were wide, black, curved blades that resembled the jaws of a Fire Patterned Ant by about eighty percent, giving a hefty feel when held in hand.

Just by their attributes alone, they were comparable to the Poison Scorpion Whip. However, the whip had an additional poison attack attribute, while these two swords did not.

These attributes were average for Wang Tao, but since they were a pair of swords, his expectations weren’t too high; the deal was still very profitable.

Wang Tao asked if anyone else was interested in using double swords.

Theoretically, wielding two weapons should definitely yield a higher attack damage than wielding just one, since there is a difference between slashing once and slashing twice simultaneously.

But the difficulty of using two weapons was much greater than using one. Moreover, attacks in actual combat situations are accompanied by movement, positioning, tactics, and other variables. Someone accustomed to wielding a single weapon might increase their attack power by choosing to wield two, but other aspects could be greatly weakened...

In Wang Tao’s team, only Jiang Shixue used two daggers, while everyone else used single weapons.

So when Wang Tao asked if anyone wanted to use the two swords, everyone instinctively shook their heads.

"One sword is fine, but I really can’t handle two..."

Wei Zhenguo shook his head.

"Alright, then let’s split them up and use them separately..."

Wang Tao shrugged.

The swords were too wide and hefty, which made them uncomfortable for many. Eventually, the two Giant Axe Double Swords were given to Wei Zhenguo and Lu Gang.

He Jijun actually quite liked big swords; they reminded him of some glorious days from his past.

But Wang Tao said the damage of these swords wasn’t as good as the Boar Tusk Long Knife, and since He Jijun was a pragmatic person... he stuck to using the long knife.

As for the sickle that Wang Tao had previously let him try... although Wang Tao said the sickle’s damage was higher, he really wasn’t comfortable with such a weapon and finally went back to using long knives.

Speaking of the sickle, Wang Tao looked at the others.

"Anyone interested in using this sickle?"

He had previously asked He Jijun to attack a Fire Patterned Ant with the sickle and had observed the damage, so he had a rough idea of what the poison attack on the sickle meant.

The damage from a poison attack was different from bleeding; bleeding damage was 10% of the total damage for a single hit, so three seconds of bleeding amounted to 30%... but the poison attack’s damage appeared to be more fixed.

Wang Tao’s strike had reduced the Fire Patterned Ant’s HP by over eight thousand, while the poison damage was around one thousand. When He Jijun inflicted five thousand damage on the Fire Patterned Ant, the poison damage was still around one thousand.

This poison damage was somewhat similar to Huang Wu’s Awakening ability, "Bone-piercing Poison", where the poison attack’s damage was roughly the same regardless of how high or low the damage to the monster was.

However, Huang Wu’s awakened poison had three instances of damage, but weapon-associated poison attack only had one instance, and it wasn’t as high as Huang Wu’s Awakening damage.

So Wang Tao thought this type of poison attack was suitable for people with low attack power, or for creatures with particularly high defense.

Clearly, he wasn’t suited for it because he had high attack power, making bleeding attributes more cost-effective for him. Not to mention his sword had an Armor Breaking attribute...

After everyone tried the Death Scythe, they mostly felt it wasn’t quite right for them, given its peculiar design.

But Yang Changhong seemed eager as she raised her hand.

"Can I use it?"

She was also capable of high-frequency vibrations, so using this sickle should yield high damage. Although she wasn’t used to it, practicing would probably solve that.

"Sure."

Wang Tao then gave the sickle to her outright.

However, the sickle’s poison attack required an Awakening to use, and since Yang Changhong didn’t have any Hidden Attributes, she couldn’t Awaken... Wang Tao would later see if there was anything that could grant Hidden Attributes to get one for Yang Changhong.

He did still have a "[Reality Illusion Pearl]" that could grant Hidden Attributes, but it required someone with high spiritual power to use; those with low spiritual power risked danger, and he felt there was no need to expose Yang Changhong to such risks.

Wang Tao then proceeded with crafting the rings.

Moments later, the two rings were also completed.

The rings were silver overall and adorned with some patterned embellishments, looking quite decent.

But the appearance didn’t matter much. What was important was the attributes, and these made Wang Tao frown.

[Perception Ring]

[Level Four (Epic)]

[Mutual perception between Perception Rings]

"What does this mean?"

Just from this description of the attribute, Wang Tao was somewhat puzzled.

"Sis-in-law, come here a moment!"

Wang Tao called Ding Yuqin over and directly put one of the rings on her finger.

Ding Yuqin was at first confused, then a bit excited.

Although she knew that Wang Tao was likely letting her test the equipment, her heart rate still quickened when he personally placed the ring on her finger. She felt as though she could even sense Wang Tao’s heartbeat—not as if, she really did feel it!
