After listening to Liya’s introduction, Raine appeared thoughtful.

In his view, the first thing that could be ruled out was the last item, ’Guardian Heavy Armor’.

Not to mention whether the set effect of the Guardian Heavy Armor could reach the level of basic resistance, even if it could, it would overlap with the effect after he cast the White Dragon Monster Skill.

Moreover, he was sure that the resistance of the Guardian Heavy Armor to various types of magic was certainly inferior to the White Dragon Monster Skill.

The next thing that could be ruled out was the Firm Will set designed mainly for the Underdark.

He had the Monster Skill of a Gray Dwarf Combat Priest, with effects such as ’Psychic Barrier’ and ’Firm Will’, which were undoubtedly stronger than those of the Firm Will set.

As for encountering extreme situations like an Extraordinary Mind Flayer, if the Psychic Barrier couldn’t withstand it, the Firm Will set would be even less effective.

Another important point was that he had the Forbidden Magic Helmet.

So, this option was also ruled out.

After using the method of elimination to rule out two options, the answer became apparent, which was to choose the Power Set to further enhance combat power.

Perhaps the Power Set was not the optimal solution, but among the three sets, it was more suitable for him than the other two.

"Let’s choose this Power Set."

"Mr. Rein, how many components do you need?"

"All of them." Raine nodded and said.

"All of them?" Liya’s tone was full of surprise.

"Well... it’s like this, Mr. Rein, each component of the Power Set is a piece of magic equipment crafted by an Advanced Armor Forger, totaling eight pieces, which is the largest of the three sets. If you buy them all at once, the price might be a bit expensive."

Liya subtly reminded.

"Hmm, how much in total?"

"A total of two thousand six hundred gold." Liya looked at Raine with some concern.

Even Bronze-Level Adventurers would be taken aback by the total price of this set, after all, this price was equivalent to two or three pieces of rare-level magic equipment.

And if you buy them individually or just two pieces, the price is much more acceptable, which was why she asked how many pieces he needed.

"Okay." Without much hesitation, Raine immediately took out a Black Crystal Card given to him by Henry and handed it to Liya.

Before purchasing, Raine had thought through the issue of equipment in detail.

He hadn’t ruled out the option of using individual Chest Armor or War Boots in this way, but suitable rare-level magic equipment was not easy to come by and was more likely to appear in major famous auction houses.

To collect them all, even if he had sufficient funds, it might take several months, and he would also need to go to some major cities.

In contrast, although single set components were relatively ordinary, when accounting for the set effects, a complete Bronze-Level set was comparable to three or four pieces of rare-level magic equipment.

Furthermore, sets produced by the Adventurer’s Association were of reliable quality, and once damaged in battle, they were easier to repair. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"Alright... okay! Mr. Rein, I will go and get it for you right away." Liya was about to say something else, but upon seeing the Black Crystal Card Raine showed, she swallowed her words.

"By the way, Liya, how’s the matter with the star iron?" Just as Liya was about to leave the room, Raine asked.

"Mr. Rein, the association is still coordinating, and there should be a response within these two days."

"Rest assured, I will inform you as soon as there is news."

"Hmm, thank you."

"Mr. Rein, it’s my duty."

And less than a minute after Liya left, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Come in!"

"Mr. Rein, am I not disturbing you? There’s something I want to discuss with you." The one appearing at the door was the Giant Blade Squad’s captain, Schneider, who seemed a bit nervous, rubbing his hands as he spoke.

"Of course you can, Captain Schneider, please come in." Raine stood up and invited him in.

At the same time, he was a bit puzzled about why the usually hearty and straightforward Schneider would show this expression.

"Captain Schneider, given our familiarity, you’re welcome to speak your mind." Raine smiled, signaling for him to sit down and have tea.

"It’s like this, Mr. Rein, you’re now a Bronze-Level Adventurer, which means you can start forming a battle group. I would like the Giant Blade Squad to join your battle group. What do you think?"

After saying this, Schneider’s eyes looked at Raine with quite an expectant gaze.

Hearing Schneider’s words, although Raine’s expression did not change, his heart was stirred by quite some waves.

"Captain Schneider, the strength of your squad is considered top-notch among Black Iron Level Adventurers. Can your suggestion represent the opinions of all the members?"

Raine was quite tempted by Schneider’s proposal.

Although his personal strength, due to the Monster Skill, had reached the Transcendent level, he was still just one person.

If one day he needs to eliminate a small monster clan or if the enemy numbers in the hundreds or even more, he alone would be somewhat incapable.

After all, whether monster or man, if they can’t win, they will flee. If the objective is to completely annihilate, having someone to coordinate naturally helps.

Moreover, if there are specialized personnel for the preliminary investigation, preparation work, etc., it can save him a lot of energy.

"Of course, before coming to you, I have already discussed this matter with everyone. Your strength has been witnessed by everyone. I believe that being a Bronze-Level Adventurer is just the beginning for you." Schneider smiled and said.
