Alone and Infinite

"Hiss—the raw materials are monopolized by the restaurant?"

Awoo took a deep breath, realizing that it had just bought a housekeeping robot and discovered that it could also cook.

But there were so many people in the restaurant, which made me a little suspicious.

"Yes, the restaurant's purchase price is high, and those who run plantations are mostly from chambers of commerce, so they know how to maintain a balance."

"It won't be sold to the apostles."

I learned these little-known facts while chatting with Lancelot. Plantations need to be large-scale and have accelerated processing times; ordinary apostles can't afford to do that.

If you're going to waste time and effort on your personal space, you might as well spend a few dozen yuan to eat out; it's a matter of cost-effectiveness.

"We've arrived. I'm going to upgrade my equipment. You guys are free to do whatever you want. Contact us in the team channel if you need anything."

Awoo suddenly remembered something and whispered:

"Boss, don't upgrade it above 5. A 3 is enough to leave. We'll discuss the details when we get back."

As it spoke, it tapped its head with its little paws.

Li Xia nodded thoughtfully. Aowu had just woken up, and a jumble of memories flooded back to it, which it was still sorting out.

What it just said was clearly something it 'remembered'.

"Ah."

The entrance to the enhanced hall, which had been shrouded in mist, is now visible.

A straight road stretched inwards, with all sorts of signs planted on the ground on both sides, some even bearing messages from the apostles.

"Enhancement can ruin your life!"

"Garbage enhancements! Give me back my weapon! Give me back my hard-earned Hall of Fame points!"

"Once you enter the realm of enhancement, it's like falling into a deep sea; from then on, you'll be giving away your resources to others."

"The fortune of everyone who walks this path will be absorbed by me. Modifications will be ineffective, and anyone who damages this sign will die in the next world."

Li Xia stopped in her tracks and looked at the sign.

Below this sign is a smaller sign:

"This idiot's ID is 86628763. I killed him in the X-Men world."

"Knight!"

"And you, my friend, you are the true hero!"

"Worship!"

The apostles are quite interesting.

Li Xia smiled and shook his head, continuing to walk inside. Every now and then, a gleeful apostle or an apostle with an unpleasant expression would walk past him.

Accompanied by various signs, some of which are quite old as you go further back, these signs record their joys and sorrows, their pleas for mercy and curses, and their blessings and prayers.

It gave me a strange feeling of traveling through history and walking alongside apostles from different eras.

Once inside the hall, one sees rows of arcade-like machines filling the entire space.

The place was bustling with noise, and the apostles, like gamblers who had lost everything, placed their equipment on the machines and slumped over.

Wait for the golden light to appear on the machine screen—this signifies a successful enhancement.

If a red light appears, it will curse fiercely and then shove the weapon inside.

Li Xia found a secluded machine and placed Night Silence at the item's opening.

A beam of light shone on the still night and then vanished instantly, disappearing without a trace.

The screen displayed a graphic of the stillness of night, with data listed next to it.

Should we enhance 'Night Silence'?

[Enhancement Cost: 1000 points]

[Success rate of enhancement: 90%]

Should we invest in enhancement materials to increase the success rate?

Only 90%?

Li Xia thought for a moment, then took out the Swallow Stone from his spatial storage. He had obtained it from Monster Hunter and hadn't used it yet.

The above markings indicated that the material was for enhancement, so he left one piece.

It was placed on the tray in front of me, and sure enough, the text on it immediately changed.

[Success rate of enhancement: 100%]

After thinking for a moment, Li Xia took the swallow sparrow stone back and decisively pulled the joystick.

A 90% success rate, even if I'm lucky 0

[Enhancement failed!]

?

Undeterred, Li Xia pulled the joystick again.

[Enhancement failed!]

Wow. So heartless?

Li Xia, no longer stubborn, decisively placed the swallow-shaped stone inside.

Even a kitten couldn't do this, because Night's Silence is bound to him by soul.

As the machine groaned and shook violently, a golden light flashed on the screen.

[Enhancement successful!]

The golden light gradually faded, revealing the additional bonuses after the enhancement.

Night Silence +1

Enhanced Attribute: Attack +5

Li Xia raised an eyebrow, and his attack power increased by 5 points. This is still a +1.

He seemed to understand why the apostles were like gamblers, continuing to strengthen themselves even with bloodshot eyes.

I opened the auction house directly and searched through it; enhancement materials were the most popular category.

The scrolling list above displays a large quantity of resources, and the prices are relatively stable.

The price listed above for the Swallow Stone is 1500, and it is suitable for enhancing level 1-3.

The price of materials with a grade of 3-5 doubled.

Soon, the automated delivery drone brought the materials to the door. Buying things outside is different from having your own personal space.

When browsing the auction house in a private room, you can be directly transported to the room. However, when buying items outside, you can only be teleported to a fixed location and then delivered by a robot.

[Should we enhance 'Night Silence +1'?]

[Enhancement Cost: 1500 points]

[Success rate of enhancement: 80%]

Should we invest in enhancement materials to increase the success rate?

Adding a Swallow Stone increases the success rate to 90%, so you can only add one more.

From this perspective, the cost of enhancement is not low.

Wait a minute, Li Xia suddenly realized that the others could rely on probability and luck.

He shook his head and continued pulling the joystick.

Then add the reinforcement stone and continue pulling.

With bursts of golden light, the machine shook more and more violently.

Thick steam billowed from the machine, and the light gradually faded.

A brand new message appeared on the screen.

Night Silence +3

Attack Damage: +10

Attack Power: +1

Awesome!

Li Xia's eyes widened slightly, and she let out a long breath.

No wonder, no wonder the apostles need to be strengthened, no wonder the first and second tiers don't have the strengthening option.

This upgrade is indeed significant!

If enhancement is unlocked at Tier 1, I really don't know what those apostles will do in order to gain an advantage.

The idea of ​​taking a big gamble is not an isolated case, but a common one.

With such a terrifying upgrade, wearing +3 armor or a +3 weapon gives you a huge advantage.

For jewelry that adds attribute points, if it's +3, will it give several attribute points?

Probably!

It's not impossible that some lucky individuals might even be able to randomly attack with +5 unequipped items.

Everyone will go crazy for enhancement and pour all their resources into it.

This is absolutely a misguided approach to the growth of the apostles.

You can tell from the frenzied third-tier apostles around them. Apostles who have struggled through more than a dozen worlds to reach the third tier should, in theory, have strong temperaments and wills.

There are still those who cannot resist their greed and desire for enhancement, wanting to gamble and change their fate.

At this moment, Li Xia was already considering whether to spend another large sum of money to upgrade Ye Ji to +5.

He quickly dismissed the thought and instead took out the Lava Mountain Armor.

Currently, Night Silence's strength is already high enough, even a bit excessive. The problem now is not that Night Silence is not strong enough.

Spending even more resources to enhance Night Silence is like making an already long version even longer; it's completely pointless.

It would be better to upgrade other equipment.

I spent nearly 10,000 to upgrade the Lava Mountain Armor to +3, looking at the attributes on it: increased fire resistance and +1 to defense tier.

Li Xia was quite satisfied; the money was well spent!

There's no need to upgrade the Lava Mountain Armor to +5, since it's still only Tier 2 armor. Upgrading the tier will reduce its enhancement level, making it a waste of money.

Instead of spending that money, you should use it to collect some materials.

The Kusanagi Sword - Murakumo +3 also gains an increase in attack power and attack strength.

When Li Xia walked out of the enhancement hall with satisfaction, his whole body was completely renewed.

He stretched lazily, and then quickly started concocting medicine to pay the 30 yuan advance.

Then go to the training ground to get used to it, and then you can go to the arena to test your current level!

1. Monthly pass 2. Recommendation vote

Chapter 291 The Return of Ten Thousand Swords (Monkey Version)!

Li Xia stood in front of the mixing table. The room, which wasn't very big, was filled with newly purchased equipment and instruments.

In fact, the equipment and instruments are not very complicated. The art of harmonization is more like a product of ordinary matter and energy undergoing a wonderful change in properties, and then being blessed by the power of the temple.

He opened his alchemy panel; this time, he was going to make a secret medicine.

It was also an upgrade reward after completing the last order; in reality, the Brotherhood didn't need that many medicines at all.

However, high-quality medicines are always in high demand, and small merchants will use this as a favor or a bonus, and customers are quite satisfied.

The secret medicine requires other ingredients as a base, mainly nutrients plus Datura mushrooms.
