The interior of the hall was very big.
Within a few thousand square meters of space, there were a large number of players who came to strengthen their equipment.
In that big space, some of the players could smell the smell of money.
There were many strengthening techniques.
A short while after Angus came in, a player had already approached Angus, although he might be there to admire Shivana who was standing behind Angus.
Angus casually dismissed him, for he did not believe in these things, even though luck was indeed illusory.
However, he felt that his luck seemed to be okay?
Angus brought Shivana to a quiet corner. It was a little quieter here.
They even saw a grumpy player punching and kicking the enhanced machine in front of him…
Without hesitation, Angus placed his palm on the activation panel of the enhanced machine.
[Dear player, please place the equipment that needs strengthening. ]
Angus took out a long sword from his backpack.
[Dragon Scale Sharp Blade ]
[Type: long sword ]
[Usable level: LV. 10]
[Rarity: Blue]
[Origin: Flaming Valley]
This was the weapon Angus obtained from activating the loot in the valley after he obtained his achievements.
It was the best long sword Angus could take out so far.
Angus liked longswords since he was able to cut down rabbits with ease.
He placed the sharp blade in his hand on the strengthened platform. With a flash of light, the sharp blade disappeared above the platform.
[ Testing completed. Each strengthening requires 3 gold coins. ]
Angus heaved a sigh of relief. Three gold coins were not too expensive for him. It should be enough for him and Shivana to strengthen their equipment this time.
Shivana, who was standing behind Angus, did not have much idea about gold coins. Instead, she was just very curious about the rumbling strengthening machine in front of her.
She was tiptoeing and peeking.
“Strengthen it.”
As Angus gave the order, the strengthening machine began to operate.
He wondered why the strengthening machine in front of him was so realistic. It really gave Angus the feeling that it was about to explode.
Thinking of this, Angus frowned and took a step back under Shivana’s puzzled gaze.
After about ten seconds, the enhanced machine gradually stopped working.
[The enhancement is successful. Player, please check the outcome.]
With a flash of light, the dragon scale sharp blade appeared on the platform again.
At this time, the dragon scale sharp blade seemed to have gained a bit of luster compared to before, and there seemed to be some steam coming out of the blade.
[Dragon Scale Sharp Blade +1]
After Angus checked the specific data, he noticed that the weapon after strengthening had increased its attack power and durability.
Since the first strengthening was successful, Angus naturally had no chance of stopping, even though the probability of this equipment being successfully strengthened for the first time was as high as 99% .
However, Angus pretended not to see it.
He put in another strengthening stone, and the machine started running again under Angus’ control.
Angus would only consider stopping if the longsword was strengthened to + 7 or above.
After all, if the previous strengthening failed, there would be no deduction for other items, and only one strengthening stone would be lost.
However, if the strengthening failed after + 7, the equipment would lose permanent durability, and if the strengthening failed after + 9, the equipment might even be permanently damaged.
With Angus’ steady style, he would not touch such a small probability of success.
Just then, the strengthening machine gradually stopped.
[The strengthening process failed. Please check ]
…
Angus suddenly had a headache. Before the strengthening, he clearly saw that the success rate of strengthening this equipment to +2 was as high as 95% .
Angus did not hesitate to directly strengthen it.
It could not be that there was something wrong with his luck, right?
Angus did not believe it. After all, he would not lose anything if the strengthening failed.
After all, he had a lot of money!
Just then, the machine kept telling him that it failed to strengthen the blade.
Three times in a row.
As a result, Angus now had some doubts about life.
He now felt that it was not the fault of the unscrupulous merchants that he was electrocuted to death by the helmet. It was very likely that it was inevitable.
Could it be that his luck was really that bad?
Angus fell into deep self-doubt.
He was afraid that there was something wrong with this machine!
It must be so!
Angus comforted himself.
Upon saying that, he put away the dragon scale blade and walked toward a machine beside him.
Angus listened to the familiar announcement. He took a deep breath and put the dragon scale blade in again.
Unfortunately, the outcome was still the same: Another three consecutive failures.
Angus began to doubt his luck.
Did he accidentally offend the Goddess of Luck that day?
“Why don’t I just give up?”
Just as Angus was having a headache, a pleasant voice sounded from behind him.
Hearing this voice that was as fresh as a mountain spring,.
Angus seemed to be in a better mood.
He turned his head and saw Shivana, who was eager to give it a try.
Angus did not hesitate.
He and Shivana were the same no matter who strengthened them.
He just hoped that this little girl would not be too sad when the strengthening failed later.
There must be something wrong with the equipment strengthening system of the sacred world. Angus suddenly understood the sad faces of the unlucky people at the door.
Shivana’s delicate hand gently placed on the strengthening table.
“Begin strengthening.”
With a pleasant voice, the strengthening machine began to operate.
Shivana looked at the strengthening machine in front of her with anticipation. It seemed to be a novel big toy.
Having stayed in the Flaming Valley for so long, how could she have seen such fun things?
Angus, who was standing beside her, did not have much hope for this strengthening.
In his opinion, this realm probably had some sort of wicked taste. The probability of the enhancement failing was completely inaccurate. It was no wonder that so many players were frowning in the enhancement hall.
Angus thought that way because he did not know much about the enhancement hall.
The reason why others were frowning at the entrance of the hall was that their equipment had been upgraded, causing their equipment to drop in tier or their durability to shatter permanently.
As for the previous upgrades, almost no player was as unlucky as Angus.
Angus wanted to be alone, or else he would definitely be surrounded by everyone now.
After all, Angus was a rare species that had failed six times in a row when his equipment was upgraded by + 2!
Was watching Angus upgrade his equipment more interesting than watching him kill a rabbit?
“Ding! The equipment upgrade is complete!”
