"Come, let everyone see the truth." One Gunman dragged Cana over and murmured, "I gave her 200 Gold Coins to help me reinforce my weapon. In the end, I paid 2000 Gold Coins without even a protest but my weapon was apparently not even reinforced by +2. Moreover, she had repeatedly said before that she wouldn't take my money if the reinforcements failed."
"She's just like us in the sense that she can't reinforce for shit. There aren't any problems when luck is on our side but when we're unlucky, isn't it tragic for all of us? Big guy, just let it go. You may have lost a bit but as long as you've learned your lesson, it'll be better next time."
"Yes, Cana could be considered as a veteran player too. Why are you making it difficult for her by shouting here every day?"
The others were all talking at the same time. Some of them expressed sympathy towards One Gunman while others put in a good word for Cana. Since someone or other was always speaking, the exchange never ended.
One Gunman disdainfully said, "She has to keep her word. I don't want to trouble anyone, I'm just looking for justice."
"I'm helping others to reinforce equipment. 1 Gold Coin for failures, 50 Gold Coins apiece for successes. The price charge begins at a reinforcement of +2…"
Another voice rang out at this moment before everyone turned their heads one after another and saw a female Giant clan player.
She was none other than One Gunman's wife, Orchid Elf.
One Gunman released Cana and walked over to ask Orchid Elf, "You know how to reinforce equipment too?"
"You'll find out after trying, right?" Orchid Elf smiled faintly.
"Cana charges 20 Gold Coins apiece but yours are actually so expensive…" One Gunman pondered before gritting his teeth and saying, "Alright, I'll trust you once."
After the reinforcement furnace operating noises rang out, One Gunman was dazed at first at the results before he yelled, "Keep going!"
"Keep going! Keep going!"
"Woah, it was reinforced by +13, is this luck or is it strength?" One Gunman asked the crowd around him in disbelief while holding a piece of equipment that was twinkling with blue light.
"Wouldn't you find out after trying again with another piece?" suggested someone.
"If you're asking me to try, I'll do it." One Gunman stuffed another piece of equipment into the reinforcement furnace.
"Wow, you'd seriously be OP if you managed to accomplish it two times in a row, so keep going!"
One Gunman's pleasantly surprised cries accompanied the appearance of another piece of +13 equipment in his hands.
"Amazing, amazing, I have two pieces of +13 equipment. My god, two consecutive pieces have turned into +13 equipment." He excitedly giggled for a long time before he took out a pile of Gold Coins and stuffed them in Orchid Elf's hands.
"These additional 3000 Gold Coins are a present for you. You're way better than Cana so I'll come look for your services next time."
One Gunman happily left before a group of players hurriedly came forward and surrounded Orchid Elf because they wanted her to reinforce their equipment.
"Everyone, don't rush, take your time…"
Orchid Elf's business became unusually prosperous while Cana's was now deserted.
From the sidelines, Li Yi witnessed all this and simply felt like laughing.
The acting routine that was played out by this couple was not bad. Not only had they discredited Cana, but they had also increased the price of reinforcements. This new price was expensive indeed.
Equipment reinforcements depended on probability and luck was involved, but they were not strongly related to any reinforcements methods. Because regardless whether you knew how to reinforce equipment or not, you had a good chance of reinforcing a piece of +16 equipment.
Several hundred thousand players who claimed to be Reinforcement Masters appeared after King of Pantheon had operated for eight years in the previous world. Nevertheless, none of the Reinforcement Masters dared to guarantee that their reinforcements would be successful. One reason that brought this about was that other than those who dared to claim a 100% success rate by using 4 Wish Stones, the others were all faking it.
Li Yi had initially sought out Cana so that he could try out his luck but suddenly changed his mind when he saw that One Gunman and Orchid were apparently doing business here. He wanted to let this couple earn some money.
Li Yi did not speak to Orchid Elf but after lining up, he decided to entrust his ring to her before placing the Ring of Windstorms into the reinforcement furnace.
The sound of the reinforcement furnace whirring into operation rang out as the first one succeeded, the second one succeeded again, while the third one failed, and the fourth one failed again…
Indeed, even Orchid Elf who was close to bursting with luck could not reinforce consistently.
Li Yi simply decided not to try anymore and went on his own towards the front of a reinforcement furnace that no one was using before he patiently started reinforcing.
He had money now, more than 40,000,000 Gold Coins, in fact, so he immediately selected automatic reinforcements.
Success, failure, success, failure, success again, failure again… This repeated numerous times but in the end, after Li Yi had spent more than 900,000 Gold Coins and several thousand Reinforcement Stones, he successfully leveled up the Ring of Windstorms and reinforced it by +10.
It was much easier following that. He used four stones to reinforce it by one grade and after spending a total of 24 Wish Stones, the Ring of Windstorms was steadily reinforced to +16.
The System's rainbow-colored notification appeared, [A certain reinforced equipment has successfully achieved the highest +16 level.]
Although the System's notification had only spawned once, all of the King of Pantheon players had nonetheless seen it already.
"A divine weapon has appeared in this world! F*ck me…"
Admiration, exclamations, curses, and suspicions were all abound…
While the players were discussing, Li Yi had already quietly left.
[+16 Maylia's Ring of Windstorms (Purple-colored, Pseudo-Legendary Weapon Level)]
[Maylia's Ring of Windstorms (Purple-colored Quality)]
[Equipment Level: Level 40]
[STR 90+290]
[AGI 90+290]
[END 90+290]
[Hidden attribute activated via reinforcement: Ignores target's DEF by 25%.]
…
The Frost Longbow could ignore 8% of DEF while the Ring of Windstorms could ignore 25% of DEF which reached a combined amount of 33% altogether!
There were only three types of equipment that could ignore DEF and these were weapons, necklaces, and rings that would add up to 100% (two rings could be worn). When they were combined with Class Skills, their target's DEF that they could ignore would finally reach 125% (Note: When one has ignored their target's DEF by a value that exceeds 100%, the additional percentage will transform into damage. If the player's ATK is 100, their damage value will become 100 when they ignore 100% of their target's DEF; if they ignore 125% of their target's DEF, their damage will be 125.)
Li Yi returned home and stored the remaining Wish Stones into his inventory.
Sif was still tooting and playing her instrument while the Mermaid Princess listened keenly. These two princesses were actually getting along pretty well.
Li Yi had only bought two Elf race's instruments, a crescent flute, and a jasper piccolo, once. That jasper piccolo was already broken by the Elf Princess when she threw it during a temper tantrum so only the crescent flute remained now.
The Elf Princess Sif would throw and break instruments when she lost her temper because musical instruments were the only thing that she owned. According to the usual route, this wasteful princess would break one instrument almost every two or three days. When her temper flared, there were times when she could break three or four in a day. Her wastage was enough to enrage people. If you were not extremely rich, it was definitely impossible to keep her.
According to certain theories, after Sif had played the flute for a long time, she should have broken it much earlier due to her temper. However, the weird part was that not only had she not broken the flute yet, but she would carefully clean it once after she finished playing it every time as if she was worried that it would get damaged.
This discovery greatly surprised Li Yi. It was important to remember that this Elf Princess was one of the most famous wasteful NPCs in the previous world. Since there were at least eight to ten thousand Elf race instruments that were broken because of her, how could this type of situation occur?
'Could it be that suffering a long period of ill-treatment had caused her to become cautious? Was she worried that I wouldn't buy her another one if she broke it?'
Li Yi pondered for some time but this reason was the only one that made the most sense.
The Mermaid Princess' Affinity towards him was slowly increasing by the day. Other than listening to music, her mood would become cheerful as long as she was summoned out once every day. Once she was happy, her Affinity would immediately increase by 1000-3000 points, but if she was unhappy, it would still increase by no less than 100-500 points.
As these developments continued, he could use her to enter the water after a short while.
Underwater combat mounts were definitely super-rare. If he could tame her, his own leveling-up rate would become peerless. Neither Lonely Semi City nor Windcloud Overlord could challenge him when that time came.
"My Little Mermaid's Affinity should soar quickly. Once Big Bro mounts you, we can enter the waters together and kill, kill, kill…"
System Notification: [The Affinity between you and the Mermaid Princess has decreased by 100 points…]
"F*ck!"
System Notification: [The Affinity between you and the Mermaid Princess has decreased by 50 points…]
Li Yi stopped talking.
There was no choice. The NPCs and monsters in King of Pantheon were extremely intelligent. Certain types of hallucinations would even form around you if you had spent a long time with them. They were like us, except that they lived in different worlds.
"A beautiful legend was handed down in my hometown…" Princess Sif suddenly opened her mouth and said.
Li Yi was instantly shocked.
He had heard these words before in his previous life, they happened to be the first sign that Sif was about to mention the hidden quest!
"I'm so tired, I can't play anymore…" Princess Sif moaned miserably.
"..." Terribly annoyed, Li Yi immediately ordered Sif to play the flute for ten straight hours.
…
Li Yi had learned the Shrinking and Gigantified Potion Formulae but had yet to find all the ingredients that were needed to craft the potions. After circling the Auction House for a long time, he did not find anything he could use. In the end, he had no alternative but to temporarily set it all aside.
He had completed the quests that needed to be done. Since he was only biding his time now, Li Yi rode the Crimson Tiger King and set out towards Pinnacle of the Fire.
He farmed a few Small Instance Dungeons to level up.
Pretty Good Mood's investigation of the spy was still inconclusive. Slightly impatient, Li Yi gave Pretty Good Mood an irrevocable order that he uncover the culprit who had sold the video within three days.
He could not wait any more because the Fire Devil Dungeon's progress was currently only lacking Ivrit and Li Yi was hoping for no mishaps to occur during this segment.
His EXP did not even increase by 1% even after going down to the Heart of the Fire Dungeon once. There was no choice. Since he was Level 45 now, Heart of the Fire Dungeon was already a low-level Instance Dungeon to him now.
After coming out of Heart of the Fire Dungeon, Li Yi examined Pinnacle of the Fire Dungeon's reset records once before he was suddenly dazed.
He merely wanted to see which Small Instance Dungeons he could go into but he actually discovered something that stunned him in the Party Instance Dungeon Record Pane.
[Fire Devil Dungeon, Hundred-person Party-level Instance Dungeon. Progress: Fire Demon Lina (dead), Ultimate Combat Weapon (dead), Ivrit (not yet). Remaining times to challenge Instance Dungeon 48/50.]
Li Yi's heart suddenly jumped before he rode the Crimson Tiger King and rushed toward Fire Devil Dungeon as quickly as he could.
Damn, who was recklessly raiding the Instance Dungeon? Did they want to trigger the Cooldown?
Although Fire Devil Instance Dungeon's progress was maintained with magic crystal rocks, there was still a limit to the number of times that the Instance Dungeon could be challenged. The maximum was 50 times and once a party exceeded it, the Instance Dungeon's progress would be automatically canceled.
If 100 party members suffered total annihilation, it would be counted as failing an Instance Dungeon challenge once, but if there was only one party member in the Instance Dungeon, it would still be considered as failing the Instance Dungeon challenge if this solo party member died one time.
Who was capable of doing such a thing as triggering the Cooldown?!
Li Yi was truly furious.
Once Li Yi had reached the Fire Devil Dungeon, the remaining number of times to challenge the Instance Dungeon displayed 49/50!

Other than listening to music, her mood would become cheerful as long as she was summoned out once every day. Once she was happy, her Affinity would immediately increase by 1000-3000 points, but if she was unhappy, it would still increase by no less than 100-500 points.As these developments continued, he could use her to enter the water after a short while.Underwater combat mounts were definitely super-rare. If he could tame her, his own leveling-up rate would become peerless. Neither Lonely Semi City nor Windcloud Overlord could challenge him when that time came."My Little Mermaid's Affinity should soar quickly. Once Big Bro mounts you, we can enter the waters together and kill, kill, kill"System Notification: The Affinity between you and the Mermaid Princess has decreased by 100 points"F*ck!"System Notification: The Affinity between you and the Mermaid Princess has decreased by 50 pointsLi Yi stopped talking.There was no choice. The NPCs and monsters in King of Pantheon were extremely intelligent. Certain types of hallucinations would even form around you if you had spent a long time with them. They were like us, except that they lived in different worlds."A beautiful legend was handed down in my hometown" Princess Sif suddenly opened her mouth and said.Li Yi was instantly shocked.He had heard these words before in his previous life, they happened to be the first sign that Sif was about to mention the hidden quest!"I'm so tired, I can't play anymore" Princess Sif moaned miserably."..." Terribly annoyed, Li Yi immediately ordered Sif to play the flute for ten straight hours.Li Yi had learned the Shrinking and Gigantified Potion Formulae but had yet to find all the ingredients that were needed to craft the potions. After circling the Auction House for a long time, he did not find anything he could use. In the end, he had no alternative but to temporarily set it all aside.He had completed the quests that needed to be done. Since he was only biding his time now, Li Yi rode the Crimson Tiger King and set out towards Pinnacle of the Fire.He farmed a few Small Instance Dungeons to level up.Pretty Good Mood's investigation of the spy was still inconclusive. Slightly impatient, Li Yi gave Pretty Good Mood an irrevocable order that he uncover the culprit who had sold the video within three days.He could not wait any more because the Fire Devil Dungeon's progress was currently only lacking Ivrit and Li Yi was hoping for no mishaps to occur during this segment.His EXP did not even increase by 1% even after going down to the Heart of the Fire Dungeon once. There was no choice. Since he was Level 45 now, Heart of the Fire Dungeon was already a low-level Instance Dungeon to him now.After coming out of Heart of the Fire Dungeon, Li Yi examined Pinnacle of the Fire Dungeon's reset records once before he was suddenly dazed.He merely wanted to see which Small Instance Dungeons he could go into but he actually discovered something that stunned him in the Party Instance Dungeon Record Pane.Fire Devil Dungeon, Hundred-person Party-level Instance Dungeon. Progress: Fire Demon Lina dead, Ultimate Combat Weapon dead, Ivrit not yet. Remaining times to challenge Instance Dungeon 48/50.Li Yi's heart suddenly jumped before he rode the Crimson Tiger King and rushed toward Fire Devil Dungeon as quickly as he could.Damn, who was recklessly raiding the Instance Dungeon? Did they want to trigger the Cooldown?Although Fire Devil Instance Dungeon's progress was maintained with magic crystal rocks, there was still a limit to the number of times that the Instance Dungeon could be challenged. The maximum was 50 times and once a party exceeded it, the Instance Dungeon's progress would be automatically canceled.If 100 party members suffered total annihilation, it would be counted as failing an Instance Dungeon challenge once, but if there was only one party member in the Instance Dungeon, it would still be considered as failing the Instance Dungeon challenge if this solo party member died one time.Who was capable of doing such a thing as triggering the Cooldown?!Li Yi was truly furious.Once Li Yi had reached the Fire Devil Dungeon, the remaining number of times to challenge the Instance Dungeon displayed 49/50!
