Closed Beta That Only I Played

Chapter 292: Fantastic Effect of Item (2)

If I can’t use God of Enhancement here, it will be the worst situation where I won’t even be able to do my bit properly as a member of our team.

Anyway, as soon as I sat down in front of the blacksmith holding a hammer, an enhancement window appeared before me like it did at any other blacksmith.

I placed the resilient bow adorned with Griffon’s feathers in the window, then said softly, “Activate God of Enhancement!”

Then a message rang.

[You have activated God of Enhancement.

-100% chance to successfully enhance your item.

-Enhancement target: +0 Enhancement resilient bow adorned with Griffon’s feathers.

-Additional requirements: None during the quest period.

-Cooldown upon successful enhancement: None the quest period.]

“…”

When I saw the Shield with +5 Enhancement Ancient Spirit Shield at first, the first thing that caught my eye was its unlimited durability with the descriptor ‘unlimited durability during the quest’

So, when I noticed it, I first wondered whether it was really true.

When I saw that it was actually the case, however, I didn’t shout for joy because it was too unrealistic.

But soon I couldn’t help but smile because I could confirm how powerful God of Enhancement with no conditions and zero cooldown was.

So, I tried enhancing the resilient bow adorned with the Griffon’s feathers while I kept saying ‘God of Enhancement!’

After a while, I checked to what level the item had been enhanced to.

“Check item.”

[+15 Enhancement resilient bow adorned with Griffon’s feathers. (rare)

– It’s a bow made of Ogut wood, famous for its resilience, and decorated with Griffon feathers which are said to bring good luck to archers.

– Equip restrictions: None.

-Effect.

: Accuracy increases by 55.

: 3% chance to inflict 2~3 times more damage to the opponent in addition to the basic damage.

: Stamina increases by 30.

: Willpower increases by 20.

-Physical attack power increases by 550, magic attack power increases by 185.

-Durability: Unlimited durability during the quest period]

The more I tried enhancing the resilient bow adorned with Griffon’s feathers, the more options there were. In particular, there was even an option to inflict additional 2-3 times damage with a 3% chance when the bow achieved +15 Enhancement.

Nevertheless, it was still nothing compared to the items I possessed before, especially considering the +15 enhancement value.

However, I had no problem with that because everybody including me had their items and skills readjusted in this place. In some respects, I was so happy that I felt like my ability was a scam.

When it reached +15 Enhancement, the resilient bow adorned with Grifoon’s feathers started emitting a red haze. So I had no choice but to turn my eyes to it.

I quietly opened my mouth, for it is better to show it just once than to say it a hundred times.

“Disclose item!”

“…”

“…”

“…”

Most of my team members stared at me blankly in shock.

Of course, I could understand their shock because I would have felt the same if I did not experience it first.

“Hmm. I think we can proceed with this level 1200 regular quest rather easily.”

Even though only I can use God of Enhancement, all the team members can use the items that I enhance with God of Enhancement. As a matter of fact, I had previously enhanced hundreds or thousands of ordinary and rare-grade accessories with the extremely rare accessory enhancement stones that Myongjin had just piled up because they could not do anything with them.

Anyway, I bought a rare-grade long sword again and upgraded it to +15 Enhancement.

Then I handed my father that long sword emitting a red haze.

But something strange happened right after I gave it to my father.

[…]

The rare-grade +15 Enhancement longsword was emitting a red haze only a moment ago.

However, as soon as my father held it, the red haze disappeared instantly.

And I couldn’t help but be a little embarrassed by my father’s following words.

“+0 Enhancement! Juyoung, your sword turned into a +0 Enhancement sword!”

I didn’t understand it at first, so I took it back from him.

The long sword started emitting a red haze again.

Its enhancement value was definitely 15.

This time I gave it to my brother, but just like it did when my father held it, the red haze disappeared instantly.

My brother spoke right away.

“Disclose item!”[+0 strong longsword. (rare)

– It is a long sword made by a skilled craftsman with great care.

– Equip restrictions: None.

:

:]

Obviously, it was a weapon with +15 Enhancement when it was held in my hand.

However, it changed to +0 Enhancement sword when somebody else took it.

So, I realized that the increased enhancement only applied to me because the God of Enhancement was my trait.

Because of that, I had no choice but to say to everybody, “I will do my best.”

Then a message rang.

[In 10 minutes, an enemy aiming for the Last Shelter will appear. ]

Wheeeeeeeeeng.

Along with that message, a blue barrier spread around the hut, appearing like a shield.

[You are blessed with the protection of the goddess.

-Health and mana recovery is doubled.]

“Warriors! If you ever get tired, please evacuate here.”

“Right. However, this shield cannot block too many enemy attacks, so try not to let the enemies attack this shield.”

But I bought the defense armor immediately without caring so much about the NPCs’ words, for it was not just weapons that I could enhance to +15 enhancement.

But I was slightly disappointed that there were no accessories for sale even though they sold accessory enhancement stones.

But it didn’t matter.

As the first message announced, if I explored the Jaya Plains here, I could acquire various items including golden rings. Perhaps I could obtain even legendary-grade items.

Of course, I could enhance them straight to +15 enhancement.

So, I said to my team members, “When we formally start challenging the rounds, I’m going to explore the Jaya Plains and the monsters that appear there. So, I hope you can proceed with the quest well. If you run into a dangerous situation, just message me.”

“Don’t worry. There is nothing dangerous in the initial rounds anyway. And we are fully equipped with defensive armor, although our maximum safety enhancement level is 3 unlike you…”

I may consume billions, or maybe even tens of billions of golden rings by challenging this quest, but I made the bold decision to use them because this was a level 1200 regular quest, and we could earn double rewards this time only.

Besides, it would be a huge gain if each of our team members obtained 1,000 coins.

Anyway, we finished all our preparations and waited another ten minutes because the way out was not yet open.

I decided to change the way I fight this time.

Obviously, magicians, including ice-type wizards, were focused on skills, so they were never the type that could maximise the effects of items.

So, I chose to be an archer instead of an ice-typed wizard.

Of course, the melee combatant type job might be better for me if I gave up some of my attack power and changed to a one-handed weapon along with armor, a helmet, boots, gloves and a cloak, but I chose to be an archer instead.
