Chapter 1165

Machinery Girl tossed three gold light orbs the size of marbles to Su Xiao. Su Xiao caught the three light orbs. The weight of this thing was not light; the three combined weighed at least 150 kilograms or more.

This weight felt as light as nothing to Su Xiao, but Machinery Girl was just a worker. Judging from her previous movements, this 150-kilogram thing didn't count for much to her.

"Sleeping."

Machinery Girl flopped onto a small bed. A small quantum bomb was placed at the head of the bed. She was going to sleep while hugging the bomb.

"Right, pay up."

Machinery Girl suddenly 'resurrected', reaching her hand toward Su Xiao.

"I'm in urgent need of Paradise Coins recently, so just take this thing to settle the account."

Su Xiao took off the dark purple leather shoes on his feet and tossed them to Machinery Girl, and equipped the newly obtained 【Kinetic Combat Boots】. This thing had some mecha properties, but it wasn't made of metal; it was crafted from a substance between metal and leather. Su Xiao didn't know the specific material, but it was very comfortable to wear.

"Do you think I'm a scrap recycling station?"

Machinery Girl looked at the attributes of the dark purple leather shoes. The attributes of this thing were quite good. After all, it was equipment Su Xiao had replaced. The price was between 150,000 and 200,000 Paradise Coins. Exchanging it for three Sources of Birth was very fair. Besides, she didn't need the Source of Birth; she wouldn't craft equipment. The reason she smelted gold-grade equipment was mainly for other rare materials.

Su Xiao left Machinery Girl's messy 'dog kennel'. If it weren't for the fact that the other party's female characteristics were too obvious, Su Xiao would even suspect that Machinery Girl was a man—sloppy, scatterbrained, unconstrained, and never bargained with anyone.

Bang!

The iron door slammed shut. After Su Xiao left, the room was quiet. About a few seconds later, a white shirt and a small pair of panties were tossed up. Machinery Girl lay on the bed in a spread-eagle position, sleeping so soundly that drool flowed out.

Su Xiao walked in the Reincarnation Paradise. He wanted to promote the quality of the Hunter Demon Set, which could only be done within the Reincarnation Paradise.

After returning to his exclusive room, Su Xiao entered the alchemy laboratory.

"Rent equipment forging furnace."

As soon as Su Xiao finished speaking, a prompt appeared.

【Please select the forging furnace grade. S-grade forging furnace is 400,000 Paradise Coins per hour, A-grade forging furnace is 80,000 Paradise Coins per hour, B-grade forging furnace is 10,000 Paradise Coins per hour, C-grade forging furnace is 2,000 Paradise Coins per hour, D-grade forging furnace is 300 Paradise Coins per hour, E-grade furnace is 40 Paradise Coins per hour.】

If Su Xiao were a contractor specializing in forging equipment, he would need to buy a forging furnace. The price of renting a furnace was so high, and buying one from the Reincarnation Paradise was an astronomical price. Almost no one could afford an S-grade furnace, and very few people rented one; the same went for the A-grade furnace. In fact, a B-grade furnace could already craft legendary-grade equipment. After all, buying a B-grade furnace from the Reincarnation Paradise required a full 1.6 million Paradise Coins.

Su Xiao chose to rent a B-grade forging furnace. To promote the Hunter Demon Set, this quality of furnace was completely sufficient; anything higher would be a waste.

【12,000 Paradise Coins have been paid. Forging furnace mode: Simple operation version.】

Space power surged, and a behemoth was teleported into the alchemy laboratory.

Rolling heat waves spread. The B-grade forging furnace was at least five meters high and ten meters wide. It was like a precision machine tool; the center was a high-temperature furnace, both sides were cooling systems, and there were dozens of mechanical arms around it.

Hum~

The forging furnace began to operate; it was like an activated mecha.

Su Xiao didn't know how to use this thing at all, so he paid an extra 2,000 Paradise Coins to rent the simple operation version.

A virtual interface appeared before Su Xiao's eyes, with hundreds of dense options on it. This was still the simple operation version; if it were a normal forging furnace, the difficulty of operation would increase by at least dozens of times.

In fact, one could see the status of workers in the Reincarnation Paradise from this forging furnace. Although they weren't good at fighting, a small portion of them were good at using this thing, thereby forging high-level equipment.

Everyone had different talents. The Reincarnation Paradise was cruel, it was true, but it would never bury people with talent. Here, it didn't look at identity, background, or whether one had a rich father; it only looked at talent and courage.

People with special talents became workers, and people with courage went to derived worlds to fight and become strong.

【Beep, furnace activated.】

【Mode selection complete, auxiliary forging mode.】

【Forging type: Complete smelting.】

【Detected that the final purpose of this operation is to upgrade equipment quality, mode changed, automatically selecting.】

【Mode change complete, now in upgrade auxiliary mode.】

【Please place the equipment to be upgraded and the materials required for equipment upgrade.】

With a puchi sound, a tray popped out on the forging furnace.

"This thing is actually so intelligent."

Su Xiao felt that the 2,000 Paradise Coins weren't wasted. He was completely clueless about how to operate this thing.

Hesitating for a moment, Su Xiao placed the 【Hunter Demon's Judgment】, 【Hunter Demon's Proof】, and 【Hunter Demon's Ring】 on the tray, and also placed five Soul Crystals (Large) and three Sources of Birth.

【Yes/No to confirm this upgrade. The success rate of this upgrade is 76%.】

Seeing this prompt, Su Xiao's cheek twitched. There was a possibility of failure in upgrading the Hunter Demon Set, and the failure rate wasn't low, at a full 24%.

Su Xiao was able to gather the Hunter Demon Set because, first, his luck was not bad; second, because the Hunter Demon Set only had three pieces; and third, because he had risked his life to fight for it many times. Having paid so much, once it failed, his previous efforts would vanish into smoke, and he would lose five Soul Crystals (Large) + 192,000 Paradise Coins.

The current effects of the dark purple Hunter Demon Set were as follows:

Set Effect 1: Hunter Demon (Passive), Strength +15, Agility +10, Stamina +10 (Cannot add real attributes).

Set Effect 2: Melee Expert (Passive), Melee Damage +40%, Maximum HP +20%.

Set Effect 3: Hunter Demon's Loot (Passive), During every battle, it will judge this battle as a Hunter Demon state. After killing the enemy, it will increase the loot value. If the loot value reaches 100%, and...

The Hunter Demon Set once seemed very strong, but now it seemed that apart from Melee Damage +40% and Maximum HP +20%, the Hunter Demon Set didn't have any particularly eye-catching attributes.

The Hunter Demon Set was known as the dream set for melee fighters, but it wasn't because of its set attributes when it was dark purple, but rather the set attributes after it was promoted to a gold-grade set.

The Hunter Demon Set that hadn't been promoted to a gold-grade set could at most be considered one of the strongest among dark purple sets; it couldn't be called a dream set for melee fighters.

However, promoting the Hunter Demon Set to a gold-grade set wasn't easy. That nearly one-third failure rate was actually enough to make many people shrink back. One had to know that if he sold the dark purple Hunter Demon Set now, it would definitely be a huge sum of money. Back then, three large adventure groups fought over one Hunter Demon Ring, and Gulu from the Phantom Troupe was chased until she doubted life.

Su Xiao stood in front of the forging furnace and slapped the start button with one hand. He dared to risk his life to fight, so why not the Hunter Demon Set? What if it failed? At most, he would go find it again, go grab it again. The failure rate was high? Stop joking. When he inherited the Shadow of the Law-Breaker, the success rate wasn't high either. At that time, failure meant death.
