Chapter 231: Too Easy

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li Yi pulled Incompetent Pig back to the forging table.

Incompetent Pig’s forging technique was now the best in Emperor City.

His proficiency was already at 55%. After reaching 50%, it would be very difficult for one to improve.

After all, the highest one could reach would only be 100%.

Of course, there were things you needed to sacrifice in order to surpass the 50% mark.

Going from 50% to 60% would be the biggest battle.

If a player wanted to improve quickly, they would have to throw money at it.

All kinds of advanced materials could be forged to improve. However, advanced materials were considered rare and hard to get.

If a player wanted to get this kind of material, they would have to at least challenge the nightmare mode dungeon to have it, and the amount gained from it was not high.

Therefore, right now, Incompetent Pig chose to proceed step by step. He did not want to improve quickly, he just wanted to steadily grow and get used to his skills.

Anyway, he could still improve with ordinary materials, but it was just a little slower.

Under Incompetent Pig’s perseverance, he had reached 55%.

Incompetent Pig was now at the end of the road. After reaching 55%, he had not improved for a while.

This could be considered a small hurdle to crossover. At this time, he just happened to need a wave of high-level materials to forge and practice with.

Therefore, when Li Yi asked for his help to upgrade his shield, Incompetent Pig was delighted.

All kinds of ores, Mithril, Advanced Strengthening stones, and so on were all displayed.

Li Yi took out his black shield.

[Equipment: Shield from the Demonic Dragon]

[Quality: Perfect (can be upgraded)]

[HP: 1,200 (can be upgraded)]

[Attribute Bonus: Chance of blocking damage reduced by 75% (can be upgraded)]

[Special Attributes: Complete Demonic Dragon set one out of five. Each piece of exclusive equipment can be upgraded by one tier equipment’s attributes.]

[Equipment Requirement: Level 25]

Looking at this panel, Incompetent Pig’s expression lit up.

He had never seen such a special looking equipment before.

Of course, he knew that this type of equipment existed, but he had never gotten the chance to see it with his own eyes. Now that he can confirm its existence, he could not help but feel excited.

After all, Incompetent Pig had spent his entire life chasing after those powerful and rare weapons.

“This is amazing. It’s a pity that it’s only at the perfect level, plus it doesn’t have any skills.”

“I’m annoyed about this too. I can only use it as defensive equipment.”

“Probably because this is a set and you haven’t collected all of it. This kind of equipment should have a unique equipment mechanism, such as having exclusive skills after collecting all of it.”

“If that’s the case, I’ll never be able to upgrade it. Moreover, I don’t plan to give up on my current equipment.”

The equipment and skills on Li Yi’s attributes were all skills that he often used. If he changed his equipment and lost such good skills, he would feel very distressed.

“Don’t worry about that. Remember the Duplicate Runic Ticket we used to copy Positive Barry’s skill? Although it’s not easy to find that kind of thing now, I’ve checked on how to get more. There’s a special mission that can be repeated.”

“If that’s the case, that would be great for all of us.”

Li Yi obviously knew about this. That mission was in Emperor City. In the future, when their equipment improves, countless players would want to use this scroll to copy the equipment and skills that they liked onto their next equipment.

Later, when the officials realized this loophole, they canceled this mission and changed it to obtaining it through production. From that moment on, the class Rune Master was born, and it greatly strengthened the economic development of Divine Revelation.

From the appearance of that mission until its disappearance, it survived for about a month.

Right now, Li Yi definitely could not show that he knew about it.

So when it was time to act, he would put on his acting face.

“You should improve the quality of my shield first. We can talk about that later.”

“Okay.”

Incompetent Pig took the shield and began to operate on it.

Incompetent Pig’s technique was more skillful than Li Yi’s, and his strength and angle of forging were craftier now.

Li Yi, who was watching from the side, began to feel a little envious. This was true talent.

Everyone had their own field of expertise, and Incompetent Pig was a master in weapon forging.

The work that would have taken an hour to complete was completed in less than half an hour by Incompetent Pig.

Soon, the black shield appeared in front of Li Yi and looked brand new. The originally black shield now had a few eye-catching runes that emitted a faint glow. The edges of the shield had also been polished, and it looked more sleek than before.

Li Yi took the shield and opened the panel.

[Equipment: Demonic Dragon Shield +1]

[Quality: Perfect (can be upgraded)]

[HP: 1,200 +200 (can be upgraded)]

[Attribute Bonus: Chance of blocking damage reduced by 75% +5% (can be upgraded)]

[Special Attributes: Complete Demonic Dragon set one out of five. Each piece of exclusive equipment can be upgraded by one tier equipment’s attributes.]

[Equipment Requirement: Level 25]

“… it doesn’t seem to have changed much.”

“The attributes of Demonic Dragons are too rare. Without materials with the same attributes, it’s very difficult to make a qualitative leap. Moreover, this equipment comes in a set. If there’s no equipment with the same attributes, I’m afraid that even if there’s an increase, it wouldn’t be very high.”

This was something Incompetent Pig felt helpless about.

The mechanism of this kind of special equipment was completely different from the normal equipment’s mechanism. It was really difficult to make a qualitative leap if one did not have a full set.

After hearing Incompetent Pig’s explanation, Li Yi understood the difficulty of it all. He no longer made things difficult for Incompetent Pig. After saying his thanks, Li Yi left the Carefree Station.

Now that he was already level 35, it was time for him to go to the second transition.

If he did not upgrade now, he might not be able to catch up to the other party.

Li Yi returned to Emperor City, wearing a mask and a cloak.

He did not want to be recognized. It was always good to keep a low profile when going out.

He did not even bring the sword out with him.

The aura of the demonic sword was too strong. If he brought it out, it would be bad if the guards sensed it.

When he brought the demonic sword into the city, the guards were already somewhat disgusted.

Now, the demonic aura had amplified from the upgrade. Even when he was in the station’s headquarters, even the residents could feel it. Naturally, he should not bring it out.

He left the demonic sword in the secret room and would call it over when he needed it.

Arriving in front of the Emperor City’s church, Li Yi walked in.

The teacher inside immediately noticed Li Yi’s figure.

“Young man, are you here to improve yourself? We haven’t seen each other for a long time.”

Seeing his mentor again, he was immediately recognized, so he did not have to reintroduce himself again.

“That’s right, I’m here for the second transition.”

“No problem, young man. As long as you complete this mission and come back here, I can help you with your class transition.”

Li Yi took the scroll from his mentor.

[Guardian Knight Class Advancement: Repel monsters that invade the border.]

This mission seemed easy for Li Yi.

Li Yi bowed to his mentor and left Emperor City.

His target this time was going to Mount Ali at the border of Emperor City.

It was a long distance from Emperor City.

Li Yi hired a horse in the stable and then set off on his own.
