Chapter 58: Legendary Quality Destiny Redemption
With nothing else to do, Su Xiao took out Destiny Redemption. He had previously obtained an item called Divine Miracle, which could upgrade equipment from Light Gold quality or above to Legendary quality.
When he obtained Divine Miracle, Su Xiao decided to use it to upgrade Destiny Redemption. Unfortunately, Destiny Redemption's quality was somewhat low, only Purple.
After killing the secondary overlord creature, Twisted, Su Xiao obtained another item that could upgrade equipment quality, namely Twisted's Essence, which could raise equipment by 13 tiers.
Above Purple quality was Dark Purple, and above that was Light Gold. Su Xiao didn't need Twisted's Essence to upgrade Destiny Redemption to Gold quality; he only needed to reach Light Gold, and then he could use Divine Miracle to directly elevate Destiny Redemption to Legendary quality!
Purple and Legendary were four tiers apart. How powerful would Destiny Redemption become after being promoted to Legendary? This made Su Xiao quite expectant.
Currently, Su Xiao was at the Execution Agency headquarters. There were at least over a thousand Awakeners inside the headquarters. Unless Sin and Mr. J had water in their brains, they wouldn't come here to attack him. This was a very safe place, and upgrading Destiny Redemption should pose little risk.
Su Xiao took out Twisted's Essence and Divine Miracle from his storage space. Twisted's Essence was a lump of iron-black gelatinous substance. As for Divine Miracle, it was a golden orb the size of a dragon's eye, giving a warm and smooth feeling when held.
Pressing Destiny Redemption into Twisted's Essence, a notification from Reincarnation Paradise appeared.
[Do you wish to use Twisted's Essence to upgrade Destiny Redemption (Purple)? This upgrade has a 100% success rate. Probability of upgrading to Dark Purple quality: 100%. Probability of upgrading to Light Gold quality: 100%. Probability of upgrading to Gold quality: 71.6%.]
Seeing this notification, Su Xiao decisively chose to use Twisted's Essence. It didn't matter whether it could be directly upgraded to Gold quality; afterwards, using Divine Miracle would definitely elevate Destiny Redemption to Legendary quality.
[Twisted's Essence has been used. This upgrade will take 2 hours and 35 minutes.]
Comparing qualities, using Epic-grade Twisted's Essence to upgrade Destiny Redemption might seem somewhat wasteful, but Su Xiao didn't feel that way. Initially, Destiny Redemption was only Green quality before being upgraded to Purple.
It was such a piece of equipment that Su Xiao had used from the First Rank all the way to the Fourth Rank, and it still showed no signs of being phased out. This demonstrated the value of Destiny Redemption.
Placing the upgrading Destiny Redemption into his pocket, Su Xiao's gaze turned toward the office desk. At that moment, a cat, a dog, and a cow were playing Landlord, having an exceptionally joyful time.
Miao Beini had come to rendezvous with Su Xiao. When they first met, this feline was as aloof as could be, clearly having found something good during her treasure hunt. When Su Xiao asked what she had stolen, Miao Beini only replied, "I'll show you when we return to Paradise, meow."
Smack!
Miao Beini slammed her paw of cards down. Judging by her expression, she was clearly already losing badly. Daring to play Landlord with Amu required considerable courage. Su Xiao had tried it a few times and came to a conclusion: he couldn't afford to lose. Once, when Su Xiao, Bubu Wang, and Amu played Landlord with a 200 Paradise Coin base bet per round and no upper limit, Su Xiao lost nearly 80,000 Paradise Coins, and Bubu Wang lost 60,000. From start to finish, Su Xiao rarely had cards larger than K. Even more magical was that they were all scattered pairs and singles. Heaven knows what was going on.
Su Xiao came to the desk and glanced at Miao Beini's cards. The largest card was an A. Judging by Miao Beini's expression, she was clearly about to cry.
Two hours later.
"Meow!"
Miao Beini pounced on Bubu Wang's head, scratching and biting. She had just astonishingly discovered that Amu and Bubu Wang were in cahoots.
In the midst of Bubu Wang and Beini's duel, Su Xiao received a notification from Reincarnation Paradise.
[You have obtained Destiny Redemption (Light Gold).]
Seeing Destiny Redemption's quality, Su Xiao was quite surprised. It hadn't been directly upgraded to Gold quality, but this was inconsequential. He immediately used Divine Miracle on Destiny Redemption.
A golden light burst forth. Su Xiao instinctively turned his head. At that moment, a suction force emanated from the Destiny Redemption in his hand. It wasn't a physically real suction, but a very peculiar sensation, as if his recent fortune was being absorbed into Destiny Redemption.
Not only did Su Xiao feel this, but Bubu Wang, Amu, and Beini also had similar sensations. Or rather, all living beings within a one-kilometer radius were having their recent fortune plundered by Destiny Redemption.
Su Xiao really hadn't expected this situation to occur. Or rather, the Destiny Redemption, about to be promoted to Legendary quality, had gained an ability.
The golden light quickly dissipated, and the second upgrade of Destiny Redemption was soon completed.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Bubu Wang coughed repeatedly, rolling its eyes. Su Xiao looked at it with confusion.
Bubu Wang stretched its neck, barely managing to catch its breath. It had just swallowed some saliva and ended up choking. Having won quite a few Paradise Coins, Bubu Wang had been all smiles earlier, but now the smile on its dog face gradually faded, and its gaze turned serious.
[Notification: The Hunter's fortune has been affected. This effect lasts for 4 hours.]
Seeing this notification, Su Xiao was secretly alarmed. This was very lucky, indeed, lucky. When Destiny Redemption was upgraded to Legendary quality, it actually absorbed a large amount of fortune.
If the upgrade had been done inside Reincarnation Paradise, it clearly wouldn't have been able to absorb the fortune of others, only Su Xiao's own. Imagine, how many Awakeners were in the Execution Agency? Which of these Awakeners didn't have some fortune? If not for that, they would have already died horribly when they consumed the Ghost Flesh.
Not only the Awakeners in the Execution Agency, but also the civilians within a one-kilometer radius were affected. So many people having their fortune absorbed would only suffer bad luck for a few hours. If it had only absorbed Su Xiao's own, being unlucky for a month would have been fortunate.
[You have obtained Destiny Dominator. Due to the significant quality increase, the enhancement level has been reset.]
