Witnessing this scene, Finn Lewis immediately felt rather smug. It turns out he was quite popular. Since everyone was so enthusiastic, he naturally couldn’t let them down. He immediately took a look at the two thousand Thunder
Diamonds he had bought in his parcel and began enhancing his equipment.
The highest level an item could be enhanced to in the World Channel was 20 Diamonds, and reaching up to 9 Diamonds was something even casual players could easily do.
But from 9 Diamonds onwards, Thunder Diamonds were required. Going from 9 to 13 Diamonds had a 100% success rate, while the chance of success fell between 13 to 15 Diamonds. If the enhancement failed, the level would drop by one. Starting from 16, the success rate was likely below ten percent. To go from 16 to 20 Diamonds, Red Diamonds were needed. Red Diamonds were not for sale. You could only use Thunder Diamonds to enhance an item to 16, and then dismantle the diamonds to get one to three Red Diamonds.
Basically, each Thunder Diamond cost about 15 yuan, whereas disassembling to get a single Red Diamond would cost several hundred. For those with bad luck, getting to +15 could take over a dozen Thunder Diamonds. However, these odds were not a problem for Finn. Of course, Finn wouldn’t be so stupid as to expect 100% successful enhancements all the time, as that would undoubtedly raise some eyebrows from the online GMs.
However, looking at the over twenty sets of Thunder Diamonds in his parcel, Finn was thrilled beyond measure. He had been playing this game for years, and it had become something he cared deeply about. One set contained 99 Diamonds. Finn had often thought about having a whole parcel of Thunder Diamonds, and now he finally could. In the past, he had envied others enhancing their equipment. Now, he too could get a taste of that intensified satisfaction. He immediately opened his carrier pigeon, clicked into his group chat, and posted all the neatly arranged twenty-odd sets of Thunder Diamonds directly into the group chat.
Why spend money on enhancing equipment if not to show off? What on earth is the point of being humble? Showing off should be done outright and openly, especially when these animals in the group chat had previously shared their fancy equipment to make others envious. Now, it was his turn to make them green with envy.
The moment the items appeared, the chat members were immediately shocked. “Holy shit! Sawyer Mitchell, are you for real? Sponsor me!” The outcry within the group chat was immediate. “Hey, hey, just wait and see. I’m about to dethrone Blade from their rank one equipment,” Finn said, laughing proudly in the chat.
“Go, go! Cheer up, Sawyer Mitchell! Everything depends on your luck today. Hey, have you considered giving me a set first to boost your own luck?” Sad Love Laughed.
“Beat it! I despise you!” Finn disdained this guy, remembering equipped with flashy items, boasting about getting to 15 with just a few Thunder Diamonds. Well, now he would let them see what a real pro at enhancing equipment looks like!
Generally speaking, to disassemble one Red Diamond, you’d need to consume 10 Thunder Diamonds. To enhance from 16 to 20, you’d need at least 10 Red Diamonds on average. To get enough Red Diamonds for all 18 pieces of equipment, you’d need nearly 1,800 Thunder Diamonds. Of course, Finn wouldn’t have to spend as much now. On average, he could get a Red Diamond with about 8 Thunder Diamonds.
After getting ready, Finn emptied his inventory, removed all his equipment, and began enhancing. As soon as the first +13 system message was broadcast, the entire server freaked out.
System: After enduring countless hardships, Literati Saucy Poet has finally enhanced the [Eagle Wind Armor] to 13, significantly increasing its power.
System: After enduring countless hardships, Literati Saucy Poet has finally enhanced the [Eagle Wind Armor] to 14, significantly increasing its power. Let’s all congratulate him!
System: After enduring countless hardships, Literati Saucy Poet has finally enhanced the [Eagle Wind Armor] to 15, significantly increasing its power. Let’s all congratulate him!
System: Breaking news! Literati Saucy Poet has enhanced the [Eagle Wind Armor] to 16, adding yet another powerful weapon to the world!
A series of system messages were all about Finn’s equipment enhancement. As the system messages displayed at the top of the screen, forcing all players to see them, there was no doubt this feature was designed for the rich players. Each system message lingered for a few seconds, but because Finn was enhancing so quickly, the screen was showing messages from several moments ago, and as Finn continued to enhance, the backlog of messages grew rapidly.
About an hour later, Finn’s hand ached from all the clicking, but it felt so good! Extremely good! The warning messages the system was displaying were still about events that occurred half an hour ago.
World Channel: Heartbreak: I feel like, Savvyer, you’re going to break the system? Can you handle it? These messages are still from half an hour ago.
World Channel: Butterfly Loves Flower: Haha, I also feel the same. I guess the system has already broken down. Sawyer, could you choose a different time slot for enhancing? We’re practically unable to run instances due to all the lag.
Looking at the messages in the World Channel, Finn flexed his fingers, then fiercely enhanced his weapon with the last Red Diamond.
System: The sky changes color! Even the gods and ghosts are shocked! Literati
Saucy Poet from Memory Empire has successfully enhanced [Heavenly Feather Fragrance] to 20! An extraordinary hero, admired by the masses! After this system message was sent out, the World Channel immediately erupted into chatter. “Wow, big brother Savvyer has finally enhanced his weapon to +20. Haha, now the players from other servers will start suffering!”
Yes, once the equipment enhancement reached 20, the system announcement was not limited to one server but would pop up on all the game servers. When Finn saw this message, he chuckled knowingly and decisively began enhancing all his equipment that had reached 19 Diamonds to 20.
System: The sky changes color! Even the gods and ghosts are shocked! Literati Saucy Poet from Memory Empire has successfully enhanced [Eagle Wind Helmet] to 20! An extraordinary hero, admired by the masses!

System: The sky changes color! Even the gods and ghosts are shocked! Literati Saucy Poet from Memory Empire has successfully enhanced [Three Lives and All Things] to 20! An extraordinary hero, admired by the masses!
When Finn successfully enhanced the last piece of jade pendant to 20, all at once, the entire server was dumbfounded by the string of system messages. They had seen enhancements to 20 before, but they had never seen anyone enhance all their equipment to 20 in such a short time! At least, the players on the Memory Empire server were okay; after all, they’d seen that Finn had failed several times during his enhancing spree
