Chapter 681

Su Xiao walks to an equipment reinforcement machine and presses his hand on the sensor.

【Welcome to use Equipment Reinforcement Machine No. 182, user holds Paradise Coins: 201,206 points.】

Su Xiao takes out Zhan Long Shan. When Paradise Coins are not very sufficient, reinforcing the weapon first has the greatest benefit.

Following Su Xiao's operation, a tray pops up on the equipment reinforcement machine.

Hiss~

White steam sprays out from the equipment reinforcement machine. Su Xiao is already used to it; this is a normal phenomenon.

Placing Zhan Long Shan on the tray, Su Xiao takes out another gem and puts it on.

【Phantom Magic Stone】

Quality: Dark Purple

Type: Rare Material

Effect: Can avoid one reinforcement failure penalty. If the reinforcement is successful, the Phantom Magic Stone will not be consumed.

Rating: 260

Introduction: Magical crystal from the void, mostly used to protect equipment during reinforcement.

……

This is the reason why Su Xiao dares to visit the Equipment Reinforcement Hall many times. Without a certain degree of certainty, how could he reinforce Zhan Long Shan? He is here to enhance his strength, not to find excitement.

The tray on the equipment reinforcement machine retracts, and a hint appears.

【Equipment checking... check complete, Zhan Long Shan (Pale Gold) reinforcement cost is 31,000 Paradise Coins per time.】

Su Xiao operates the equipment reinforcement machine with an expressionless face.

【Re-checked according to instructions, checking...】

【Check complete, Zhan Long Shan (Pale Gold) reinforcement cost is 31,000 Paradise Coins per time.】

31,000 Paradise Coins for one reinforcement. Su Xiao closes his eyes in "despair." One failure is equivalent to 31,000 Paradise Coins going down the drain, and this is still with the protection of the Phantom Magic Stone.

If equipment reinforcement +5 or higher fails, the reinforcement level is cleared. If reinforcement +7 or higher fails, there is a 70% chance that the reinforcement level is cleared and a 30% chance that the equipment is broken. If reinforcement +10 fails, the equipment will definitely be broken.

As for above +10, every level is between heaven and hell. Success is heaven, equipment attributes are significantly improved, equivalent to strength enhancement. Failure is hell. For an example, please refer to the brother kneeling dozens of meters away.

【Yes/No to proceed with this reinforcement.】

"Reinforce."

【Reinforcement starts, please wait for five minutes.】

Rumble...

The equipment reinforcement machine operates, starting cumbersome operations, and from time to time, you can hear the buzzing sound of electricity, with amazing momentum.

Five minutes pass quickly, and the equipment reinforcement machine gradually stops working.

Hiss~

A burst of scorching steam sprays out, and a hint appears.

【Zhan Long Shan (Pale Gold) +9 successful, Yes/No to continue reinforcement.】

Although reinforcement +9 is successful, Su Xiao will not stop there. Reinforcement has several major levels. After reaching these levels, the equipment will have additional attributes or enhance existing attributes, such as +5, +8, +10, these three reinforcement levels.

Su Xiao's goal is to reinforce Zhan Long Shan to +10, or even above +10. He wants to see the ability attached to the dark purple 260-rating weapon, "Cutting Iron Like Mud (Passive)," to what extent it can be enhanced.

"Continue reinforcement."

The equipment reinforcement machine continues to operate, roaring.

The five minutes required for reinforcement begin to feel long. Not only Su Xiao, but the contractors in front of the equipment reinforcement machines nearby have the same feeling. A contractor with a somewhat funny personality has already started doing radio gymnastics while waiting. Is this the "legendary" metaphysical reinforcement?

Su Xiao lights a cigarette. His body no longer has a dependence like nicotine addiction. This is his habit, which can keep him calm.

Pfft~

Scorching steam sprays out from the equipment reinforcement machine. This time, the steam emission is larger than before. Su Xiao discovers that the higher the reinforcement level, the more steam the equipment reinforcement machine sprays, and the higher the heat.

【Zhan Long Shan (Pale Gold) +10 successful! Yes/No to continue reinforcement.】

Zhan Long Shan returns to its original reinforcement level, and Cutting Iron Like Mud (Passive) should also change.

Su Xiao takes a deep breath, hesitating whether to continue reinforcement.

Judging from the current situation, Zhan Long Shan will stay at the pale gold quality for a long time. If so, Zhan Long Shan is of course the stronger the better, to deal with the next few derived worlds.

Moreover, Su Xiao is preparing to activate the talent awakening task in the next derived world. The earlier this task is completed, the simpler it is.

"Continue... reinforcement."

【Reinforcement starts, please wait for ten minutes.】

Following Su Xiao's instructions, the equipment reinforcement machine operates. This time is different from the previous reinforcements, with greater momentum and longer time consumed.

Su Xiao stands in front of the equipment reinforcement machine and smokes silently. Although the success rate of this reinforcement is not high, the risk is not great. At most, he loses a Phantom Magic Stone + 31,000 Paradise Coins. Compared with the success benefits, taking this risk is worth it.

Exhaling in relief, Su Xiao smiles. Since the risk is not great, he doesn't need to be nervous.

If there were a risk, he wouldn't use his sword to take risks. He would rather spend a greater price to improve the quality of Zhan Long Shan than come to reinforce it.

After the cigarette in Su Xiao's hand burns out, the equipment reinforcement machine gradually stops operating.

【Zhan Long Shan (Pale Gold) +11 successful! Yes/No to continue reinforcement.】

Su Xiao's fist clenches, and his eyes seem to be shining. According to his consultation, reinforcement has several major levels, namely +5, +8, +10, +12.

The improvement of each major level is very tempting, and the higher the reinforcement level, the greater the benefit. If Zhan Long Shan can be reinforced to +12, it can be comparable to some low-rating gold quality equipment, or even stronger?

"Check reinforcement success rate."

【Checking hunter permissions...】

【Permission passed, the success rate of this reinforcement is 21%.】

Seeing this kind of success rate, Su Xiao's expression is not very good. A 21% success rate seems high, but it's not the case in reality.

This involves probability issues. If it is a trigger probability of 100 times, then a 21% probability is high, but if it is a single time, then 21% is equivalent to about one-fifth, and the remaining four-fifths are enough to pit most people to death.

"The loss of failure is within the acceptable range, continue reinforcement."

【Reinforcement starts, please wait for fifteen minutes.】

The reinforcement time begins to increase. Logically speaking, Su Xiao should be nervous now, but for some reason, he is very calm because he is confident—not confident that his luck is good, but confident that his luck is bad.

Just before, he opened more than a hundred treasure chests, green, blue, dark purple, and gold were all opened, but the number of flashes was only three times, and they were all low-level treasure chests.

According to Su Xiao's observation all along, although he is sometimes very unlucky, overall his luck is in a balanced state.

He was very unlucky before, so now, he doesn't believe he will continue to be unlucky. After three consecutive successful reinforcements, he begins to have mysterious confidence.

At this time, not far from Su Xiao, a girl wearing a bear-eared hood is staring at the reinforcement machine in front of her. If you look closely, you will find that this girl is actually wearing pajamas and slippers.

"Must succeed, please, succeed, succeed..."

The girl's eyes are closed, her hands are together, and she is muttering to herself. This is the normal reinforcement posture of a contractor. Su Xiao, who stands expressionless in front of the equipment reinforcement machine, is just a very small minority.

This girl is reinforcing a blue necklace, from +5 to +6. One must know that if reinforcement +6 fails, the reinforcement level will be cleared.

Just as the girl is praying, a burst of scorching steam sprays from her side, with an exaggerated range.

The girl blocks the steam with her fair hands. In the blowing steam, she sees a figure. That figure's windbreaker is blown by the steam, making a hunting sound.
