“It’s an accident, an accident…” Tsundere Phoenix hung out her tongue in embarrassment. She continued to put an Augmenting Gem into the Enhancing Furnace and started over again.
A brilliant light cover the surface of the Enhancing Furnace, and the Augmenting Gem was about to be disintegrated…
Cancel!
Tsundere Phoenix suddenly canceled the Enhancing process. Through the observation glass of the Enhancing Furnace, it was faintly visible that the jade-like Augmenting Gem was crushed in half. A glimmer of joy flashed past Tsundere Phoenix’s eyes, and she suddenly shook the Enhancing Furnace violently. The sound of the items crashing about in the furnace was heard.
Could this method really improve the success rate of Enhancing equipment?
“Human, what are you doing?” Maria was furious. She grabbed the collar of Tsundere Phoenix’s clothes and lifted her up, her eyes filled with anger.
Lin Jie commented calmly, “Let go of her.”
Maria gave a hoarse laughter. “Human, do you think you are qualified enough to give me orders?”
“Ssss——”
As if the air was torn, a gust of Blade Aura shot past Barbarian Maria’s face. The next instant, a shallow blood mark was seen on her face.
The passersby standing around the Enhancing Furnace were shocked and hurriedly backed off a few steps. Barbarian Maria was a Level 30 Elite, and furthermore, the consequences of attacking NPCs in this city were very serious!
Maria’s eyes narrowed slightly, and a few strands of white hair dropped down slowly. She loosened her grip on Tsundere Phoenix and sized up Lin Jie before giving a sinister smile. “Young man, you are good.”
Tsundere Phoenix still looked rather dazed. She had been thinking about how to improve the success rate of Enhancing equipment for the longest time ever. When one idea was proven unworkable, the little loli would come up with another inspiration. Till this moment, she was experimenting with this conjecture: it seemed like one could only wait while they pressed ‘Start’ to the Enhancing process and then they would only know the result after the whole process ‘Ended.’ What actually happened ‘during’ the Enhancing process then? If one could control what happened during the entire Enhancing process, would it possible to increase the success rate then?
RIght at this junction, Lin Jie appeared like a savior. He had Gold grade equipment and a large number of Augmenting Gems—the perfect candidate as a sucker to let her try out her ideas!
Tsundere Phoenix had started her experiments, but she was caught by Maria.
Lin Jie silently withdrew his sword and aimed it at Maria, and Maria did not dare to move! The onlookers were shocked by this scene. How was this possible?
Tsundere Phoenix blinked her eyes and looked at this Warrior. ‘Hmm…’ Although he was not very handsome, he gave her a huge sense of security.
“Continue,” Lin Jie gestured.
“Oh, oh…” Tsundere Phoenix broke out of her daze and continued shaking the Enhancing Furnace. As a Barbarian, Maria definitely could recognize the signature stunt of the hero—Wind Rider Sword Saint—of her race, and thus she did not dare to stop Lin Jie.
Lin Jie had expected such reactions too.
However, when Lin Jie turned back to see Tsundere Phoenix’s actions, he couldn’t help but crease his forehead.
‘Is this her so-called Enhancing techniques? It’s really… rather alarming, to be honest.’
Tsundere Phoenix looked excitedly inside the Enhancing Furnace and saw that all the powder from the crushed Augmenting Gem had covered the Wolf Soul Necklace.
One definitely needed to follow up on a victory!
After the remaining half of the Augmenting Gem was burned, jade-like colored powder floated about in the Enhancing Furnace. It was soon all absorbed by the necklace.
Ding!
The Enhancing Furnace gave off a crisp sound. Enhancement successful!

The necklace’s Attack power was actually increased by 2 points! For necklaces, this growth rate was considered good. Lin Jie smiled and paid a silver coin to Tsundere Phoenix, and lifted his chin to make a gesture. “Continue.”
Tsundere Phoenix threw a sly look at Maria, who did not dare to retaliate. She could only stand by aside and stare helplessly as Tsundere Phoenix started the violent shaking process again…
Enhancement +2 Successful!
Enhancement +3 Successful!
The Enhancing process succeeded several times amidst the violent shaking sounds given off. In the twinkling of an eye, the necklace was being enhanced to +5!
From Enhancement +5 onwards, the failure rate of Enhancing would increase exponentially. If a piece of equipment was Enhanced to +7, once the Enhancing process continued and failed, everything gained previously would be lost! Lin Jie hurriedly shouted, “Enough, enough! You can stop now.”
“No, I can still enhance it!” Tsundere Phoenix ignored Lin Jie’s comments and started the Enhancing Furnace again. After a soft ‘Ding,’ Enhancement +6 was successful!
“Wow! Haha!” screamed the little loli excitedly. Her boobs bounced, and so did many men’s eyes.
Lin Jie was shocked. ‘This girl’s crazy! Enhancement +5 was already very rare! If it burst now…’
He hurriedly canceled the request for Tsundere Phoenix to help him Enhance equipment, but he was a beat slower.
Just with this bit of time, the little loli had activated two Enhancement processes again—and all of them were successful!

Lin Jie’s eyebrows twitched rapidly. ‘This crazy girl actually managed to create equipment that was Enhanced +8 just by shaking the furnace violently!?’
In terms of its Attack Power, the Wolf Soul Necklace was now completely comparable to a Bronze weapon of the same level. What’s more, it could still allow users to recover 200 health points!
After equipping himself with the Wolf Soul Necklace, Lin Jie’s health bar officially broke through the 1,000 points mark—it was now maximumly capped off at a whopping 1,185 points! Even the powerful Shield Specialists like Inksnow from those big guilds had maximum around 800 plus points for their health bars!
“Big Brother, do throw in more Augmenting Gems and pay me, I can still continue with the Enhancement process. I will be able to help you forge an Enhanced +10 necklace. Throw more Augmenting Gems in now!” shouted the little loli excitedly. Her sparkling eyes had an excited, crazed look in them.
Lin Jie’s reaction was to run off as far as possible!
‘Enhance still? What if the Enhancing process fails? This is a +8 superb necklace!’
The chances of getting such a necklace were extremely minimal! Now, other than those solo players who had signed contracts with the Sky Provisions Shop, the price of Augmenting Gems sold by other people were about 18 to 35 silver coins on average. If the Enhancement process succeeded eight times, it would mean that these people had spent about 2 gold coins. Moreover, after reaching Enhancement +6 stage where the equipment’s hidden attributes would be activated, the chances of Enhancing successfully would be greatly reduced. There were many examples of equipment’s attributes being destroyed during the Enhancement +7 and Enhancement +8 process!
Lin Jie estimated that in the entire The New Age now, there would only be this sole piece of Enhancement +8 necklace available… correction, it’s the only Enhancement +8 equipment available!
With this necklace, plans to Enhance other equipment could be temporarily put on hold. ‘This Wolf Soul Necklace is way enough!’ Lin Jie always believed that it was best to keep humble and not ask for more!
‘Oh my, if I can get my hands on the legendary Lucky Box…’ Lin Jie shook his head and calmed himself down. That would be really too much to hope for!
As she watched Lin Jie ran away from her as if she was a plague, Tsundere Phoenix stood akimbo with her hands on her waist and laughed loudly in an arrogant but still cute manner. “Wow, hahaha, I just made an Enhancement +8 necklace! Friends, those who want to enhance your equipment, queue up speedily! Successful +1 for 1 silver coin! … Oh, don’t rush, don’t rush! I will help you enhance your equipment, please queue up here…”
With Lin Jie’s success story, the players who had been watching them by the side were instantly crazed. Each of them hurriedly passed their Augmenting Gems to her. They all dreamed of owning an Enhancement +8 equipment, which they could sell off so as to bring in cash. After which, they would be able to enjoy life comfortably…
The little loli confidently activated the Enhancing Furnace and put her hands on it, preparing to start shaking.
Bang!
Barbarian Maria’s muscular hands which were full of thick calluses slammed down on the Enhancing Furnace. Her eyes narrowed as she questioned, “Little girl, what are you planning to do?”
“En-enhance equipment?” squeaked the little loli.
“Don’t treat my Enhancing Furnace so roughly!” fumed Maria.
This was an easy way to make money! The hell to anyone who dared to stop them! The crowd at the scene fumed too as they cursed internally, ‘Why didn’t she stop the Warrior in front of us, but stopped us now instead!?’
“Wth, you menopausal old woman, go away!”
“Barbarians are plain rude, such a waste of her huge boobs.”
“What boobs, those are her chest muscles! I bet she can crush stones with those, and horses can race on those hefty arms!”
Having heard the insults of the players from the alternate realms, Barbarian Maria gnawed on her sharp fangs impatiently. This was in the City of Light, which was governed by the Holy Church and Empire. She could not behave as freely as she wanted to—that was something she could do back at her home, the City of Barbarians. She looked at the crowd coldly and said forcefully, “If you want to use the Enhancing Furnace, come find me at the City of Barbarians then!”
After which, Maria suddenly lifted up the two-person high Enhancing Furnace and walked to the teleportation circle.
The strength of Barbarians was indeed inhumane!
Everyone at the scene looked at one another and could not make up their minds as to how to react.
Finally, Tsundere Phoenix clapped her hands and snorted. “Let’s go then! Which of you want to Enhance your equipment? We should go together!”
One should never underestimate the appeal of a beautiful girl. Under the double temptation of having Enhanced equipment and following the cute loli, most of the players rushed to follow Tsundere Phoenix into the teleportation circle.
The scenery changed, and the desolated City of Barbarians appeared in front of their eyes. This city was filled with huge stones and looked ancient. It was a city which had long been turmoiled by war.
A gigolo-looking Priest looked around and saw a female Barbarian in the distance. He started commenting loudly about her, “It’s really so uncivilized here. No wonder girls from here look so ugly.”
Duang!
Right after his words, a big hammer hit the Priest’s head, bringing more than 200 points of damage—a Barbarian child was holding on to an iron hammer angrily… Behind this Barbarian child, there were more than 40 Barbarian children, who had bulging muscles and were all baring their fangs.
“How dare you comment that my mother is ugly! Come, let’s kill them!” The Barbarian child shouted in a childish voice. These impetuous children activated Forward Charge and started the assault, raiding all the players who had just teleported over here!
Barbarians were natural warriors. It just took a young Barbarian to tear up a Velociraptor!
The strength of these children was simply terrifying! The dozens of players who teleported over were killed by them in an instant, and their corpses were actually being guarded by them…
Fortunately, the system stepped in to intervene. The story went that the Barbarian Warriors who had been sent away for war returned, and the first thing they did was to embrace their lovely children in happiness. The joy of victory and hope of never again going to war made Maria forgive the impudent players. She resurrected them using the Sacred Drums of the Barbarians and even allowed them to regain their EXP.
This became the greatest laughing stock The New Age had for a period of time! However, no player dared to disrespect or create nuisance at the City of Barbarians again.
At this moment, there was something else going on at a dilapidated cemetery far away in another part of The New Age.
Lin Jie moved forward cautiously. This cemetery was a cemetery of a clan, the Jimlarelle family!
In the middle of the cemetery, Lin Jie took out the Engineering bomb given by Zheng Ziliang cautiously. He threw it in front of him and ran backward.
Kaboom—
The ground trembled, and broken stone fragments with huge patches of earth were blasted into the air.
A deep hole was revealed beneath the stone monument, where the coffins should have been stored.
