"So what do you proposed I use it on?" Jack asked, he still wore back the boots as the fairy asked. Nowadays he had gotten used to her bossy attitude already.
"Did you not realize when I said any item, the ones you should be looking at are items of the highest grade currently in your possession?"
Hearing her words, Jack looked into his bag for a bit and ca to a realization. "Ah, I see where you are going with this." He then took out three items from his bag and laid them out on the ground. They were the Transformation Box, Container of Souls, and Orb of Disguise.
"Are you telling
that I can upgrade one of these into a Legendary item?" Jack asked.
Peniel nodded.
Jack looked at the three, then asked her again, "are you sure?"
"If you ask
one more ti, I will stab my hand into your eye."
Jack took a deep breath. A Legendary item. He had not seen any legendary item since the Second Soul Remnant. Then again, he did just get a Divine Treasure which was even higher than the Legendary grade. But it did not diminish his awe of knowing he will get another legendary item. Now, the only question was, which one should he used the upgrade on?
After giving the matter so thought, he decided to eliminate the Orb of Disguise. The first reason was because the artifact already had its own feature for upgrading, he only needed to find the materials to do it. Secondly, he didn't really need another disguise. At least not at the mont.
So he stored the Orb of Disguise and leaving only Transformation Box and Container of Souls. After thinking so more, he decided on Container of Souls. This artifact had been monuntal in improving his battle prowess by strengthening his skills and spells. He was expectant on what further benefit he could get by upgrading it.
He stored the Transformation Box and was just about to use the Upgrade Cell on the Containers of Souls when Peniel stopped him rudely by slapping on his hand. "Use it on the Transformation Box!" She ordered.
"Why?"
"Just use it first. I will explain once you see the upgrades."
'lady, if you were already set on which item I should use the upgrade on, why didn't you tell
from the start? Waste my ti trying to make the decision.' Jack grumbled in his mind but of course, he did not voice it out or projected his thought to her. Peniel still sensed his dissatisfaction thought. "Do you have sothing you want to say?" She asked.
"No. I'm perfectly fine," Jack uttered. He stored the Container of Souls and brought the Transformation Box back out again.
Jack set the device on top of the Transformation Box, an interface appeared asking him if he wanted to use the Upgrade Cell on the Transformation Box, Jack clicked accept. The device broke into uncountable tiny atoms as they swirled around the Transformation Box and completely covered it. The process went on for so ti as he heard buzzing sounds accompanied by so clicks and clunks. He also saw so movents underneath all the swirling atoms, as if the item inside was getting broken and reassembled.
Finally, the swirling receded and the atoms fell onto the ground, forming heaps of dust. The Transformation Box revealed was completely different than before. In fact, it was no longer in a cube shape, its shape had changed to a hexagonal prism.
Transformation Prism (Legendary Artifact)
Consus 4 Common equipnt/materials of sa type to create 1 random Uncommon equipnt/material of sa type.
Consus 8 Uncommon equipnt/materials of sa type to create 1 random Rare equipnt/material of sa type.
Consus 16 Rare equipnt/materials of sa type to create 1 random Super Rare equipnt/material of sa type.
Consus 32 Super Rare equipnt/materials of sa type to create 1 random Unique equipnt/material of sa type.
"Ho! It could now fuse Super Rare equipnt to make Unique equipnt," Jack uttered, but then added, "but I think getting 32 pieces of Super Rare equipnt of the sa types is a bit farfetched, don't you think?"
"It is, but that is not why I asked you to choose this Transformation Box to be upgraded," Peniel replied.
"No? What could be more impressive than the ans to make a unique equipnt?"
"It is of course impressive, but as you said, very doubtful if you can amass that many numbers of sa type Super Rare equipnt in near future. But one thing about this upgrade can allow you to profit from it in near future."
Jack took a look at the Transformation Prism's description again. The only other change to its function was that it wasn't limited to only equipnt now, it could also fuse materials to a better grade."
"Material fusing?" He asked Peniel.
"Rember when you expressed your worry about future leveling-up of your equipnt? The problem is not just the increased failure rate when you do the level-up. Their material demands will also increase. And to make things worse, only common materials are available for purchase at normal shops."
"Iron ores and Steel ores?"
"Yep, higher grade ores will be a problem to source."
"Like this copper ore?" Jack took out one from his bag, he had collected 21 of these copper ores during various occasions. As Peniel had ntioned, he had not seen any shop selling this copper ore when he made purchases.
"Yeah. You will only be able to get them from mining, and even higher-grade materials can only be acquired if you have sufficiently high mining skills. I understand you will not be spending most of your ti training your mining skill to the maximum, won't you? You can also try to purchase the materials from others who had good mining skills and are willing to spend a large portion of their ti doing mining works, but I don't think they will sell them cheap. So factions also gave them out as exchangeable items using points, but that will an you can't use those points for other better goods."
"What level of equipnt will require
to use this copper ore?" Jack asked.
"Equipnt level 35 and above," Peniel answered. "And it will pick up as more rare materials are needed for higher-level equipnt. Level 55 equipnt will start to require rare materials, such as gold ore, for leveling. Level 70 needs super rare ones, level 80 needs unique, while level 90 will require legendary materials. So, if you don't have the ans to procure these materials, you will be stuck with whatever level you first get the equipnt, unable to level them up."
"I see… By having this Transformation Prism, I at least will have the ans to get the required materials to upgrade until level 89."
"Exactly. All you need to do is simply mass up on all those iron ores and steel ores and used this Transformation Prism to convert them into higher-grade materials. You don't need to worry about leveling up your mining skills or spending large amounts of coins or points to get the materials."
Jack nodded. "I see you have thought about the future, thank you. This is a great help!"
"Hmph, you don't say," Peniel folded her arms and gave a prideful pose.
Jack stored the Transformation Prism. He would start to amass the iron ores and steel ores once he was back in the capital. He stood up and looked at the exit of the room. "I guess it's ti to leave," he said.
When he stepped over the exit of the room, he fully expected to appear in the main hall where they entered, with Duke Alfredo and the others waiting there. He had not seen any green dots on his radar after coming out of the space where he fought Eldingar, so he assud his friends had been sent out of the dungeon after he defeated the boss.
Instead, he was greeted with the view of unfamiliar ruins. It was not the interior of the main hall of the Temple of Divine Squall. He was instead outdoor and the place looked very much like one of those ruins scattered around at the outskirt of the temple. He was still wondering when blue chains suddenly appeared and coiled around his body, restricting him.
This looked familiar, Jack thought when he saw the blue chains.
"You made us wait really long," he heard a familiar voice from his back. He turned around and saw the trio of Gridhacker, GraphicZ, and Sunset.
"Yo, such a coincidence to et you three again," Jack said to them cordially. In his mind, he was rather confused, why did those three not shown inside his radar?
"That's a rare-grade area-wide jamming device," Peniel said. She had gone back into her hidden dinsion when Jack decided to exit the dungeon. Jack's eyes went to the thing she indicated. It was a strange cylinder with a satellite-dish cover at its top, there was light blinking on the satellite-dish.
