Chapter 60: Why Can’t I Keep My Hand In Check?

If a +1 would pop up from Jiang Qiao’s head whenever he obtained one point of Maker Energy, then +600 and +700 would be popping out from the top of his head right now.

Jiang Qiao was watching Segman together with the group of players that were surrounding him as if they were watching a wrestling match.

“The eleventh enhancement of the tenth piece of equipment failed, is this NPC made by the game developers to make us feel good about our chances?”

“Would such an NPC fail ten times in a row?”

“Look! He succeeded! A +13 armguard!”

“Maybe he’s really such an NPC…”

Jiang Qiao listened to the comments of the players as Segman stuffed the fifth sacred relic into the Enhancing Machine, before the machine bounced around dangerously and spat out red armguard.

Segman laughed in elation and almost crazy happiness, and without saying anything more he picked out another sacred relic and was about to stuff it into the machine.

At this moment, the spear knight finally realized that he had severely neglected his duties! If Segman continued to brawl with this machine, the entirety of Aquaflow’s fortune would be turned into a pile of charcoal.

“Prince Segman! Please stop touching that strange machine!”

The spear knight forcefully pressed down Segman’s shoulders and stared him in the eye.

“Put it on.” Segman didn’t refute any more, just pushing the armguard into the spear knight’s hands.

“The Armguard of Strength, I’ve worn this before, Your Highness! Please do not ruin our precious…”Wait, what?”

The spear knight put on the armguard on as he spoke, already expecting the small increase in strength that came with wearing the armguard.

The increase in strength had always been noticeable, but it came with the effect of consuming the wearer’s stamina if time went on.

As soon as the spear knight wore the +13 enhanced armguard, he felt like he could kill ten bulls with a single punch!

If the degree of enhancement were 0.1 before, now the enhancement would be 0.7!

“This is impossible! Isn’t this the serial code 307 sacred relic, the Armguard of Strength?” The spear knight muttered perplexedly, looking at the ‘+13’ rune carved onto the armguard.

“This is what the Enhancing Machine does, if this rune here turns to thirteen, the effects of the sacred relic will increase by three times!”

As he said so, Segman looked over to the blood-red spear that the spear knight was holding.

“Do you want to try, Sir Kaermo?”

“This is… No!”

The spear knight quickly hid his treasured spear behind him protectively. This was a sign of his position, and a treasure handed down from his ancestors!

If this spear were turned into charcoal by this machine, then the spear knight wouldn’t be able to wash away his sins even by committing suicide!

“It won’t become charcoal before it gets enhanced to ten! It won’t even fail before it gets to six, and at the cost of just a few magical stones! Don’t you want even more power?”
