Chapter 22 The ubiquitous formation(1/2)
"...Boss, are there any discounts for upgrading the storage bracelet?" Looking at the terrifyingly high cost of upgrading the storage bracelet, and the fact that the boss is also a human, I finally tried to ask.
"The guests don't know the rules of the City of Warriors?"
"What rules?"
“The price is clearly stated, so you won’t be deceived.”
"Okay, upgrade my storage bracelet to a standard Kongming Stone." He took out 10,000 gold coins with some pain. When the shop owner saw this pile of gold coins, he felt as if he had just seen a single gold coin.
There was no ripple in the sky, and the gold coins disappeared directly with a wave of his hand.
"Put the hand with the storage bracelet here!" the shop owner said, pointing to the core of the formation on the counter.
Li Xiao also followed the instructions and stretched out his left hand and placed it on the mysterious formation device. The originally hidden bracelet suddenly appeared.
The shop owner also took out a very small standard space stone, and then muttered a spell. Many energy runes suddenly appeared on the counter, towards the storage bracelet that appeared.
Float away.
A dense layer of runes was quickly superimposed on the bracelet, and then the standard empty stone was placed near an inlay on the bracelet. It was directly absorbed by the energy field formed by the runes. The Kongming Stone quickly merged with the storage.
The bracelet is integrated into one.
Then Li Xiao, who was wearing a storage bracelet, also felt a wave of energy running up his arms and reaching his brain. A lot of new information emerged in his mind, and he instantly understood the double-space storage bracelet.
How the ring should operate.
In fact, there is no need to deliberately operate it at all. The virtual image of the storage space appears as soon as the thought occurs. It is basically the same as the original one, except that the top of the translucent virtual image has an additional layer and a second layer of options...
As long as you think about opening the second floor space, the first floor storage space will automatically disappear, and the second floor storage space will emerge at the same time. When you think about opening the first floor space, it will instantly switch back to access things.
Exactly the same.
“It’s really convenient to switch!”
"With the soul bound, you can naturally use your fingers like an arm."
"Well, thanks!"
"You're welcome, welcome to visit next time." The store owner also showed a rare professional smile.
…
After leaving the storage bracelet upgrade store, I went to an equipment repair and enhancement store to repair the bearskin suit.
Perhaps in a sense, this is a world of formations. Whether changing jobs, upgrading equipment, or repairing things, different formations are used.
I saw the boss tapping the equipment with a small hammer, and then the formation on the workbench emerged with a colorful energy glow, which continuously converged and merged into the bearskin suit.
With the integration of those energies, some of the damaged areas on the bear skin suit also grew back at a speed visible to the naked eye. However, within a short time, the severely damaged bear skin suit had returned to its original state, and its durability had completely returned to its original state.
"500 gold coins, thank you for your patronage!" He returned the leather suit to Li Xiao and told him the cost of repairing it.
The price is indeed a bit expensive, equivalent to one-sixth of the price of a set of equipment, but there is no room for bargaining in stores in this world, so you can only pay.
"Boss, can you strengthen and upgrade weapons here?"
"Of course. What kind of weapon does the guest want to strengthen? Do you have the Adamantite Stone?"
"How is the price calculated?"
"Bring your own adamantine stone and charge a strengthening processing fee of 600 gold. We will provide an adamantine stone and strengthen it for 1,600 gold coins each time."
"Is the processing fee so expensive?"
“Purchasing related equipment is very expensive.”
"After superimposing the strengthening rune array, the overall performance of the weapon can be improved by one-third. If the weapon has good basic attributes, strengthening it is still very cost-effective."
"Can this Moon-Chasing Repeating Crossbow be strengthened?" He took out the Moon-Chasing Repeating Crossbow and asked. Although he has now mastered the spell energy ball, the Moon-Chasing Repeating Crossbow is really easy to use, and it can also deal with some people with higher spell resistance.
Monsters are very useful.
It is also because of this that most junior mages will accompany it. It is also because of this that the Moon Chasing Repeating Crossbow is so popular in the City of Warriors.
"Of course there is no problem in strengthening it, but the value of the Moon Chasing Repeating Crossbow is only 2,000. Does the customer really want to spend so much money to strengthen such a novice equipment?"
"Yes, let's strengthen it once!" He said and handed over the Moon Chasing Repeating Crossbow, the cost of strengthening it, and an adamantine stone.
The reason why I insist on strengthening it is mainly because there are many monsters with high spell resistance but low resistance to physical attacks, so if it is easy to use, the Moon Chasing Repeating Crossbow can still be used for a long time.
Seeing that Li Xiao insisted on strengthening, the shop owner didn't say anything more. After taking the weapon and the adamantine stone, he threw the adamantine stone directly into a small furnace on the workbench.
Under the action of the energy field formed by multiple formations, the impurities of the fine gold stone were stripped away layer by layer, and finally only an ultra-high purity liquid fine gold the size of a marble remained.
Then, under the control of the energy field released by a strengthened magic circle, the liquid fine gold turned into thin threads and quickly attached to the Moon Chasing Crossbow, forming many runes.
The process of stacking the rune array was very fast. It only took three or four minutes to complete the strengthening of the Moon Chasing Repeating Crossbow.
Chasing the Moon Repeating Crossbow +1
Enhanced attributes 1: Basic attributes increased by one-third
Base damage: 66.67 (critical hit damage doubled)
Fire rate: 0.33 seconds/time
Arrow speed: 195 meters/second
Winding method: Energy crystal supplies energy and winds automatically.
Effective range: 104 meters
Maximum range: 780 meters
…
Looking at the greatly improved attributes of the continuous crossbow, I am quite satisfied. It can be said that there is a little surprise, because even the effective range of the first level and the farthest range has been increased by one-third.
But of course it's normal if you think about it carefully. The reason why the power of the crossbow is increased is mainly because the energy field formed by the adamantine formation further increases the speed of the crossbow. The faster the crossbow is lost, the effective range will naturally increase.
"How many times can this weapon be strengthened at most?"
"Theoretically, any weapon can be enhanced to +9. However, when it is enhanced by +2, the cost of enhancement and the materials required for enhancement will also be doubled. When it is enhanced by +3, the materials and costs will be doubled again, so the basic attributes are too poor.
It’s really not cost-effective to strengthen weapons.”
"I'm just asking casually, please help me strengthen the Xuantian Sword and the Viper Staff!" He said and handed over the Xuantian Sword and the Viper Staff.
"...Guest, the enhancement of this fine gold Xuantian Sword is understandable, but why should this extremely low-value poisonous snake staff be strengthened? The staff itself is only worth a few hundred gold, and it is far less than a piece of fine gold stone."
"I didn't find a staff in the weapon shop that is more suitable for me!"
"That's because you didn't find the right person. I have a legendary staff here. Its basic attributes are much higher than your poisonous snake staff after it is strengthened. Give me a piece of adamantine stone, add this poisonous snake staff, and exchange it for the legendary staff.
How about the staff?" He took out a legendary staff and handed it to Li Xiao to check its properties.
Legendary Staff
Physical damage:8+6.7+12.5
Spell damage: +35%
Weight: 0.8kg
Durability: 5000/5000 (cast 10 spells, durability -1)
Using an Adamantite Stone + a Viper Staff in exchange for a legendary staff, this transaction may be a bit of a loss, but if you strengthen the Viper Staff, you will only lose more.
"Okay, let's change!"
"That's right. There is really no need to waste adamantine stones on too basic equipment."
After completing the transaction, I strengthened the Xuantian Sword. Although its attributes are not suitable for close combat, there are many times when things suddenly require melee combat. This Xuantian Sword really needs to be strengthened.
Fine Gold Xuantian Sword +1
Enhanced attributes 1: Basic attributes increased by one-third
Damage:160+6.7+12.5
Sword length: 98CM
Sword width: 3.5CM
Weight: 1.51kg
Durability: Add some fine gold, molded in one piece, never wear out.
