Chapter 943

Fianna looked genuinely surprised when Mrazivý accurately relayed the number of unique skills she possessed.

"I have heard rumors about the power of Dragon Eyes, but to think that you really can see my entire status despite the protections I have set up. That is a terrifying power." Fianna said.

"Yeah, it certainly is. That is just how dragons are though. They love treasure and having an ability that allows them to perceive the worth of just about anything helps with their collecting. Luckily, I did not inherit too much of that instinct from my ancestor." Mrazivý responded.

However, Marcus could not help but look at her a bit doubtfully.

After her evolution to a dragonoid he had noticed she had a greater liking for shiny and valuable objects.

She never cared much for simple gold coins or raw gems, but he had found her on occasion admiring works of art she had purchased and the numerous magical items she owned as if they were her own personal horde.

Still, it obviously would not help to point that out, so Marcus simply held his tongue.

"The two of you are certainly interesting. The last time we worked with a group from eh Northern Quadrant was lackluster. I don't have anything against Kollo and Thegia, they can pull their weight, but the others were just useless for the most part. I am glad that we have some capable fighters this time." Fianna said, giving Marcus and Mrazivý a thumbs up.

"Was it really that bad before?" Marcus asked Thegia.

"Yeah, the last time we had a joint mission a party of four promising adventurers were brought in from the Northern Quadrant, but they were lacking in quality. Their levels were fine, but it was simply a matter of lacking everything needed to be at the top."

Nodding his head, Marcus understood what she was getting at.

There could be a huge difference between people even if they were at the same level.

Quality of equipment, number of unique skills, the attributes of their race, and numerous other factors played into the overall strength of high-level individuals. Marcus had met numerous people that were at a higher level than he was now, but he was certain that he was stronger than most of them.

At this point he was even confident he would win in a fight against Darius, Borealia's Knight Commander, despite being more than ten levels lower.

After Fianna had settled down, the rest of her party started up a conversation with Marcus and the other members from the Northern Quadrant.

They tried to get Miguel involved as well, but he would only respond with short answers, if he responded at all.

'Seems that Thegia was right. The members of Intrepid are pretty easy to get along with.'

The more Marcus conversed with them, the more he grew to like them. They were strong but humble, unlike Round Table, that were too proud of themselves. And while Evette's party was not stuck up, they did have an air about them that made it difficult to approach them.

For some time, the two groups discussed their respective skills in combat in a broad sense.

They would be working together for a long time going forward and it made sense to know the basics of what everyone could do.

Of course, it was just such things as their usual specialties, no one got into what unique skills were or other rarer abilities they possessed.

Eventually though things began to wind down and after deciding that the leaders of each party would hold a strategy meeting tomorrow, everyone began to go their separate ways.

"What do you say we go and stock up on some supplies? The leader of the entire guild did say that we could ask for anything within reason." Mrazivý said.

levels increased, and often he would just take the most valuable parts. Now though, he could just through their entire bodies into his item box and worry about "Sure, that sounds good. We left in a hurry so there are some things I want extra of. In fact, I think it is time I expand our inventory."

Opening up his status Marcus hovered over his extra-large item box and sunk four hundred sixty-seven skill points into it to upgrade it.

This was a huge purchase that took out nearly a third of the skill points he had amassed, but it was well worth the expense.

His newly upgraded skill went from an extra-large item box that contained a volume of nearly six hundred cubic meters, to a warehouse item box that could hold fifty-five thousand cubic meters.

It was nearly a hundred times the increase in storage space and Marcus could understand now why the price had been so high, especially since it was the max level that the item box skill could reach.

'That was a truly large number of skill points, but I have to say that it was worth the cost. Calling it a warehouse really is an apt description.'

With this much storage space Marcus would no longer have to be too picky about what he jammed inside his item box. Monsters and beasts often got larger as their levels increased, and often he would just take the most valuable parts. Now though, he could just through their entire bodies into his item box and worry about disassembling them at a later time.

Also, with this upcoming expedition he wanted to be extra prepared with all manner of supplies.

As strong as weapons and equipment made from high level materials like adamantine and amethros were, they could still get damaged and needed maintenance.

In his item box he had some of his forging gear to make repairs if necessary, but if a weapon broke he did not have the proper facilities on hand to fix it.

But now that he had made the decision to increase the size of his item box, he could comfortably have a fully equipped forge with him at all times.

'I am not sure if I can get some of the more specialized items I need from the guild. But a quick trip back to Borealia using a Dark Portal should sort me out.'
