Chapter 493 - Upgradeable Weapon (2) (1/2)

”Uhm...” President Ruka pondered.

”I need to analyze this weapon first before I can confidently say.”

”It is fine. You can take your time.” Auron said calmly even though, inside, he was worried.

Auron had a lot of tasks to be finished. Although Zephyr said that he didn't care if Auron failed the task, Auron didn't want to disappoint Zephyr. Moreover, Zephyr had given him quite a good deal.

President Ruka took the sword and started to observe and analyze the sword. Meanwhile, Auron was waiting beside President Ruka.

Time was ticking. Auron was waiting silently. He was quite nervous. What if the requirement was absurd and he couldn't fulfill it.

One hour later, President Ruka put down the sword and heaved a heavy sigh. Auron felt worried about President Ruka's sigh. He hastily asked, ”Do you find out something president?”

”Just like I had guessed, it is not easy to upgrade this sword.”

”Do you want to hear the good news first or the bad news first?” President Ruka inquired.

Auron stunned. However, before he could say anything, President Ruka already decided it for him, ”Let me tell you the good news first!”

”As you know, currently, this sword is common grade equipment. Since this is an upgradeable weapon, this weapon can be upgraded all the way to the legendary grade equipment even the mythic grade equipment.”

”Not only that, each time this weapon is upgraded, the power of this weapon will increase exponentially. I guess that there will be a new skill added or even increasing the user's attributes for each upgrade.”

”Isn't this awesome? You can become the first person who owned mythic grade equipment. I can't wait for that to happen.” President Ruka's eyes brightened.

President Ruka explained the good news excitedly while he was admiring the sword. Deep inside, Auron was also excited. However, he still remembered that there was bad news.

Auron hastily asked, ”What about the bad news?”

Auron's question woke President Ruka from his admiring state. President Ruka sighed once again.

”The bad news is about the condition to upgrade it. To upgrade the weapon, you need to do three things. First, you need to sacrifice some amount of weapon with the same or less grade than the current weapon's grade.”

”Not only that, the weapon sacrificed needed to have a higher level requirement than the current weapon's level requirement. And, the most important thing is the sacrificed weapon should be a sword. You cannot use another kind of weapon.”

”The good news is you can use a lesser grade weapon as long as it had a higher level requirement and a sword. Of course, if you use a lesser grade weapon then the amount you need to sacrifice increased significantly. One weapon of the current grade was equivalent to 100 weapons of one grade lower.”

”The second thing you needed to do is to find several minerals to upgrade the weapon. Each upgrade needed you to gather 15 different kinds of mineral. And, each mineral needed quite a big amount.”

”Lastly, you need to find a good blacksmith to upgrade the weapon.”

After Auron heard the bad news, he frowned. He agreed with President Ruka that this was really bad news for him.

”Uhm... You don't have to worry about the blacksmith. As long as you can fulfill the previous two conditions, as I can help you to upgrade it up to King grade without any problem. As for after the king grade, I need to research first before I can confidently claim to be able to upgrade it to the legendary grade. However, you don't need to think about it now as there is still a long way to go to reach that level.” President Ruka tried to console Auron.
