Chapter 34 - 34. No OP Weapon But Got OP Armour. (1/2)
Right after I was left alone in my room, I spread out my Archer's Hood, studded leather body armour, a pair of soft leather boots and the leather pauldrons on the bed. I have decided to fuse my Refined Steel Plates inside the Fusion Chamber and reinforced these 4 items here with 14 layers of meshed steel.
”After what happened today, its a rather harrowing experience to see a bolt coming down at me even in bullet time and fortunately it did not do any harm and just left a pockmark on my tunic. I won't be caught dead next time if a bolt rushes towards between my damn eyes...!!!”
I decided to place one black long sleeve tunic and black pants as well to infuse it with Refined Steel mesh frame inside it. Better be safe than sorry, mate.
There are 6 pieces of equipment and I told Patricia that I would be meditating before I head for the shower and she understood it as a sign that I should not be disturbed. After arranging the items before me, I meditated and went to the Realm of Mind.
I picked 12 pieces of Refined Steel Plates from the Smelting Zone and brought it forward to the Fusion Chamber. I placed my Archer's Hood inside it along with a plate of Refined Steel. I pushed the slider to FUSE/Armour and closed the door.
With a Basic Crafter Level 0/10, I do not have much confidence in what the results would turn out to be. I hope the system does not fail me and recognises me since u had been Fusing those Stanspar shards for hundred of pieces already.
I prayed deep in my heart and shouted out loud ”LET IT FUSE...” as I turned the crank of the lever. It took nearly a minute before I received an announcement.
*Ding* Fusion Success. 7 layers of Mesh Steel Reinforced Archer's Hood. Armour +50. Experience gained +10%.
”Thank you, Lord Jesus...” I clasped my hands towards my chest and opened the door and inserted another piece of Refined Steel plate, closed the door and cranked the lever. Once again the announcement rang in my head and it was all sweet news to my ears.
*Ding* Fusion Success. 14 layers of Mesh Steel Reinforced Archer's Hood. Armour +100. Experience gained +10%.
I repeated the whole process with 2 plates instead of one in a single process and all went through perfectly.
*Ding* Fusion Success. 14 layers of Mesh Steel Reinforced Leather Boots. Armour +100. Experience gained +20%.
*Ding* Fusion Success. 14 layers of Mesh Steel Reinforced Pants. Armour +150. Experience gained +20%
*Ding* Fusion Success. 14 layers of Mesh Steel Reinforced Tunic. Armour +150. Experience gained +20%
*Ding* Fusion Success. 14 layers of Mesh Steel Reinforced Studded Leather Vest. Armour +350. Experience gained +20%.

”Woohoo... I hope I'm not bogged down with an extra weight of between 2-2.5kg on my body for as long as I could protect myself, I should be most grateful. Other full plate armour would weigh at least 45 to 60 pounds and once they fall they become a turtle for sure.” I thought to myself as I meditated off and went back to the real world.
I've decided to allocated 200 points into Dexterity so I would be able to enhance more on my role as an Assassin and managed to bring it to half rate. I looked at the rest of the attributes and stats and was happy with myself. Now I won't be afraid of any incoming bolts and could even catch it with my bare teeth. Hah Hah Hah...
