My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start Chapter 401 - Platinum-tier Weapon For You

Chapter 401: Platinum-tier Weapon For You

“Watson, you said you could repair my bracelet. Do you mean it?”
Lily turned her head to look at the bracelet in Watson’s hand. As a member of the Campbell family, even though her main interest was magic, she still had some understanding of magical tools. She did not look at it carefully when she bought it previously, so she fell for it. When she went home to use the bracelet, she realized that something was wrong. A normal gold-tier bracelet could withstand the same level of magic or combat aura.
However, when she bought the bracelet home and injected gold-tier magic elements into it, it was repelled. At that time, Lily thought that the bracelet was too old and had some strange restrictions to it. When she tried to increase the amount of magic, the bracelet broke, and she finally reacted. It turned out that the repelling effect was the reaction of low-tier items to high-tier energy. Low-tier items could not withstand such high-tier energy, so they were repelled.
After she reacted, she immediately found Charlotte and went to the shop to get her money back. Lily knew that the bracelet was impossible to repair. Even if her family’s craftsmen were to fix it, it would still be impossible. After all, who could repair a pile of junk?
She went to the stall here at that time to vent her anger at the shop owner. She did not expect Watson to say that he could help her repair it. She felt a little doubtful.
Watson shook his head at Lily’s question. “I don’t like to joke. I mean what I said. Did you say that you would forget about the matter if someone repaired the bracelet? Now that I’m here to help you fix it, you should not dwell on that matter. Even if you’re from the Campbell family, you don’t want to be surrounded by so many people, do you?” Watson pointed out casually.
Lily looked outside the stall and found that there were already many people surrounding the street. They were curiously pointing at her and discussing something, which made her blush slightly.
The Campbell family had always been arrogant and did not care about what others thought. However, she was a girl, after all. At least, she still cared about it.
“Alright, Watson, I agree to your request. If you can fix my bracelet, I will let go of the matter. If you can’t do it, then I’ll still burn this place down.”
As she spoke, a ball of high-temperature flame rose from Lily’s hand, causing the jewelry shop owner to tremble subconsciously.
“Boss, to complete the repair, I’ll take another bracelet from you. You won’t mind, right? ”
“No, I don’t mind at all.” The shop owner hurriedly nodded. Even if Watson took ten bracelets, he would be willing to do it if the young man could help him.
“Then I won’t stand on ceremony.”
Watson did not even look at the bracelet. He picked up an ordinary bracelet and placed it with Lily’s broken bracelet, activating the fusion system.
“System fusion, activate.”
[Congratulations, Master, for successfully fusing a bronze-tier bracelet. The bracelet is from a silver-tier ancient relic.]
[Silver-tier accessory: a bracelet from an ancient relic.]
[Abilities: Silver Shield (able to resist attacks from silver-tier professionals), Illumination (able to emit light at night and in dark conditions, automatically illuminating it), Magic Amplification (able to increase the power of spells by 30 percent).]
[Additional abilities: Ruin Guardian Summon (calls forth an ancient ruin guardian with the combat power of a silver-tier elite; it can only be summoned once per day)]
The fused bracelet appeared in Watson’s hand with a blinding light. The bracelet was grey and was broken into pieces. It had transformed; it was glowing with a silver luster. There were mysterious magic symbols carved on it, constantly rotating. It looked extraordinary.
“Watson, you’ve repaired the bracelet! What kind of magic is that?”
Lily let go of the owner’s right hand and looked at the bracelet in Watson’s hand in surprise. She subconsciously took a few steps closer.
The owner was also very surprised by Watson’s action. After tidying his clothes, he pretended to be calm and said, “Ladies, that bracelet was originally like that, but because of its age and some improper operation, it seemed like you had broken it! Look, now that that young man has repaired that bracelet, the effect is so powerful. That is a well-deserved gold-tier accessory. Why would I sell you a fake one? ”
Lily looked confused. She did not expect that the bracelet was really a gold-tier accessory. She thought that the shop owner was trying to trick her with a fake one. Did she break it by mishandling it?
“Sorry, that is a silver-tier bracelet.”
‘Though the effect was not weaker than a regular silver-tier bracelet,’ Watson thought to himself.
The shop owner looked embarrassed. He said, “The young man is right. It is a peak silver-tier accessory, but its effect is not inferior to a gold-tier one. As the owner of the jewelry shop, I have operated the accessory for more than ten years. Occasionally, I would make a mistake! Although I’ve made a mistake in judging its grade, I know its ability very well. That accessory is engraved with a fire-elemental spell. It can release a gold-tier spell that can shoot fireballs continuously.
“No, there’s nothing like that on that bracelet. There’s only a spell called the summoning of the ruin guards.”
Watson dismantled the bracelet again and put it on his arm. With a light shake, the bracelet immediately emitted a dazzling light. Then, in the empty space in front of Watson, the rocks on the ground rose with a dull cracking sound. Gradually, they converged into a rock structure. It was a guard in armor and holding a long spear. He exuded a powerful aura.
“You’re wrong twice in a row. You don’t know the grade, and you also don’t know the function. Are you really the owner of that bracelet? Did you steal it from somewhere?” Lily could not help but question the jewelry store owner.
“What do you mean I stole it? How could I steal something when I’m doing legal business?”
The owner defended himself with an aggrieved look on his face. “It’s bizarre. I got someone to age the bracelet and engrave the spell for exploding fireballs. That bracelet will be damaged if it’s lucky enough to explode once or twice. But why has the magic in it changed?”
“Because I only said that it would be repaired; I did not say that it would be restored to its original appearance.”
Watson took the bracelet off his arm and smiled. “Boss, you seemed to have said something that you should not have said.”
“Oh, no.”
The shop owner also reacted, and his expression changed. He saw that Lily had already arrived in front of him. With a livid expression, she raised her burning fist and punched his nose. “You lied to me. You d*mn liar. Go to hell.”
With a punch, the shop owner was sent flying backward and hit the wall. Then he collapsed on the ground. There was a burnt fist mark on his face, and his nose was crooked.
Phew!
Lily blew her fist and looked like she had vented her anger.
“Miss Lily, that bracelet is your reward!” Watson handed the bracelet to Lily. He walked to the shop owner and put down a bag of money. “I want to buy a hairpin from you. I’ll leave the money here.”
Standing up, Watson did not look at the shop owner. He turned around and walked out. “Nightingale, let’s go.”
“Yes, Young Master Watson.”
Nightingale put the hairpin on her head and looked at the shop owner lying on the ground, covering his nose and wailing. She shook her head and followed Watson out of the shop.
Only Charlotte and Lily were left. They looked at each other and followed him.
“Watson, wait for us.”
Lily put the bracelet on her wrist and chased after Watson. “Can I ask you a question? Why are you willing to spend 100 gold coins to buy a crude hairpin even though you know the owner of that shop is a black-hearted businessman?”
Lily was not the only one who did not understand. Even Charlotte did not understand it. It was utterly meaningless to give money to such an evil businessman. With that money, one could buy hundreds of similar counterfeit products. The two girls felt that Watson’s actions were a little silly.
“I brought Nightingale here to shop. If Nightingale likes something, I’ll buy it regardless of whether it’s valuable or not! She likes it.” Nightingale subconsciously touched the hairpin on the top of her head. Her face was red, but her eyes were soft with sweetness.
“You liked it, so it’s valuable. It’s so philosophical.”
Lily and Charlotte murmured to themselves, and there was something different in their eyes. They did not expect Watson to say that. After listening to it, they could not find anything to refute. Instead, they thought even highly of Watson. The value of things was one thing for girls, but more importantly, it was about the person who paid for them.
For such words, Watson was either a good person who treated everyone kindly or liked his handmaiden.
Initially, Charlotte and Lily thought that Watson was a cold and arrogant genius. That was because while they were in the Royal Academy, Watson had only taken the test and did not care about anyone else. Otherwise, he would have recognized them. It seemed like Watson might be a little different from what they had imagined. They were interested in Watson because Antonio had shown interest in that young man.
“Looks like everything has been settled. Is there anything else? If not, you can leave,” Watson said when he realized that Charlotte and Lily were still following him.
“Watson, I have a request. Later, Lily and I are going to buy some items for school. I wonder if you can come with us?” Charlotte asked with a twinkle in her eyes.
As soon as she finished her sentence, Lily nodded. “That’s right, Watson. It looks like you can repair the bracelet and even change its quality. Even the strongest forger of the Campbell family would find it difficult to do such a thing. Your understanding of magical items should be deeper than all of us combined. With you around, we won’t be afraid of buying fake goods.”
“Lily, you’re an idiot. With Watson around, we won’t be afraid even if we buy fake goods. Watson can turn it into something better than the real thing, right?”
“Charlotte, what you said makes sense. But can you stop calling me an idiot? I’m not an idiot.”
While the two women were bickering, Watson took a deep breath. He felt that the chattering of the two women was quite annoying. Furthermore, Nightingale’s happy expression became unsightly again.
That could not go on.
“Repairing the bracelet is very energy-consuming for me. It’s basically impossible for me to do it again.”
Watson interrupted the two women, causing disappointment to appear in their eyes. Then he changed the topic. “Although I can’t make weapons for you, I know where to find good weapons.”
“Where to find good weapons?”
“You’ll know when you come with me.”
Watson led the girls to a blacksmith’s shop owned by the Severed Fingers Gang. The two girls might not leave, but since that was the case, he would satisfy their requirements and then send them away. As for the way to satisfy their requirements, of course, he would make the two girls pay for it.
“Look, that is where I want to bring you. The armor and weapons here are all gold-tier, and there are many of them at the peak of gold-tier. The quality is excellent.”
Watson pointed at swords, spears, shields, and other weapons hanging on the walls. He introduced them casually.
“The quality of the weapons here is different from the ones in the previous shop, indeed. Just looking at them makes me feel a chill.” Lily stood under the sword hanging on the wall and could not help but shiver. She seemed to be worried that the longsword would fall at any moment.
“Watson, Lily and I are both mages. Most of the items sold here seem to be tools for warriors. Do you have any magical staff that are suitable for us?” Charlotte looked around and asked with a frown.
Those weapons were indeed excellent, but they were not suitable for her. Would a mage like her, how could he carry a longsword and engage in close combat with others?
“Miss, you may not know that, but the weapons here are enchanted weapons, and the materials used to make them are quite special. I wonder if you have heard of arcane mithril?” The materials used to make those weapons are arcane gold, which is higher than arcane mithril. The transmission speed is probably faster than ordinary staff, and they can also be used as close-combat weapons. They are much more powerful than mere magical staff.”
At that moment, the boss from the blacksmith shop walked toward them. His upper body was naked and covered in sweat. When he saw Watson, a hint of respect flashed in the bald man’s eyes, and even though the way he looked at Charlotte and the other girls became kinder, he did not get angry, even when Charlotte questioned him.
“Boss, we have been fooled by others before. In my opinion, shopkeepers are sweet-talkers, and no one can believe what you say. What’s the use of creating a sword that is more conductive than a magic staff? It’s better to create a magical staff,” Lily said. The bald boss still looked amiable, but the corners of his mouth twitched. He was about to start explaining.
At that moment, the same questioning voice came from inside the blacksmith shop.
“Casey, what’s the use of a longsword that’s more conductive than a magic staff? It’s not easy for you to pass the Royal Academy’s Mage Department’s assessment. Why don’t you just buy a magical staff? If you buy a longsword, people will think that you’re a warrior, and you would need to spend 10,000 gold coins for it. If Father finds out about this, it’ll be terrible. ”
“Lana, you don’t understand. How can a magical staff be compared to a sword? Furthermore, the design of that sword is very exquisite. In this world, some people can use magic and cultivate combat auras. That kind of person is called a genius. Should I hold a magical staff in one hand and a longsword in the other when fighting? Let’s not talk about that. This platinum-tier sword is worth 10,000 gold coins. Perhaps Father won’t blame me for this. Instead, maybe he’ll praise me for being smart.”
A man and a woman dressed in gorgeous clothes walked out of the blacksmith’s shop as they spoke.
The man had a smug look on his face. He was holding a sky-blue longsword in his bandaged hand. Two illusory water dragons crossed each other on the blade of the sword. They appeared and disappeared at times. The hilt of the sword was inlaid with seven huge blue gemstones. Even though the distance was very far, one could still feel a stream of water vapor from the sword’s blade.
The girl was in the blacksmith shop, but she was still holding an umbrella. Her eyes were filled with helplessness as she looked at the man beside her.
“Casey, Lana?”
Watson saw the two of them and greeted them in surprise. He did not know what had happened, but he knew then. He did not expect Marcus to tell him that only ten platinum weapons had been sold. Casey was so lucky to have gotten one of them.
If he remembered correctly, the sword in Casey’s hand was called Water Dragon Sky Sword. It was a platinum-tier weapon of the water element. It had the same effect as the fake Poseidon Trident. A full-power slash could release a water tornado that connected the sky and the Earth. Perhaps Marcus wanted a useless young master like Casey to use the strength of his weapon to shine in the exhibition competition and use the contrast to show off his weapon.
While Watson was thinking, Casey and Lana also saw him. Lana’s eyes lit up, and she came to Watson’s side in surprise. She said, “Watson, what a coincidence! I didn’t expect Sister Nightingale to be here as well. ” Casey’s face was bitter, the hand holding the platinum-tier weapon continued to tremble, and the pride on his face had disappeared.
‘D*mn it, why did I have to meet this guy again? And he came with a maid?’
It was fine if he only saw Watson, but seeing Nightingale was really unbearable. The familiar face made him recall the painful experience in the floating city, and his body felt a dull pain.
“Watson, aren’t those two from the Ptolemy family of the floating city—Casey and Lana? I heard that they have a good relationship with my brother, Augustus. Do you know them?” Lily asked Watson.
“I know them, and I’m also very familiar with them.” The corner of Watson’s mouth curled upward. “Isn’t that right, Young Master Casey?”
“Watson, I didn’t expect you to buy weapons here. I thought someone with your ability wouldn’t need a weapon! This sword is a platinum-tier weapon that I had just spent 10,000 gold coins on. It must be fate that we met. I’ll give this weapon to you.”
Watson’s words made Casey’s body quiver even more. Even his voice trembled. He quickly handed the Water Dragon Sky Sword to Watson and forced an ugly smile on her face.
“Give away a platinum-tier weapon? What does Casey mean? Is his brain damaged?”
Charlotte and Lily, who did not know about the matter between Watson and Casey, were dumbfounded when they saw Casey’s action.
