Chapter 4: Due to the enhancement of Cyclic Grade equipment, which involves an increase in causal limits, once equipment enhancement fails, it will be immediately destroyed! However, Cyclic Grade equipment with durability exceeding 3000 points can resist the destruction caused by enhancement failure. Instead, its enhancement level will be reset to 0, and a certain amount of durability cap will be permanently deducted.
...
Seeing these prompts, Su Xiao understood the enhancement rules for Cyclic Grade weapons. First, each enhancement consumes one "Primordial Core," and because it first raises the causal limit, an increase in the limit indicates a successful enhancement. Therefore, the enhancement result is very fast. For example, from +1, the result appears in a few seconds, but completing the subsequent core improvement takes a while.
As for the cumulative success rate of consecutive enhancements, this is random. When an enhancement succeeds, it might accumulate a 0.1% success rate, or it could accumulate 99.9%—it all depends on luck.
At the stage of enhancing Cyclic Grade equipment, luck has long been part of strength, because this is derived from the Luck Attribute or fortune. If one were to ignore the fair probability of luck, it would be the greatest injustice to contractors who have invested in this aspect.
Su Xiao activated the "Weapon Enhancement Authority."
"You can use this authority to raise weapons of 'any quality' to +15 enhancement."
The equipment enhancement machine began to operate, and he started receiving enhancement prompts.
[Dragon-Slaying Flash +1 successful.]
[Dragon-Slaying Flash +2 successful.]
[Dragon-Slaying Flash +3 successful.]
[Dragon-Slaying Flash +4 successful...]
...
[Dragon-Slaying Flash +13 successful.]
[Dragon-Slaying Flash +14 successful.]
[Dragon-Slaying Flash +15 successful.]
...
A series of prompts appeared one after another. In the past, each enhancement level required waiting for a while, but now the increase in the causal limit of the Cyclic Grade allowed the enhancement from +1 to +15 to be completed in a total of 60 seconds.
Buzz~!
The equipment enhancement machine began to operate, with a roaring sound and the sizzling of electricity inside. Six hours later, a burst of steam sprayed from the four corners at the bottom of the machine, and a prompt appeared.
[This enhancement has been completed.]
Su Xiao did not take out Dragon-Slaying Flash. He took out the "Highest Grade Enhancement Stone," pressed it into the still-hot card slot of the equipment enhancement machine, and consulted the relevant prompts. After confirming that this counted as an enhancement, rather than the previous authority-based improvement, he took out "Fate Reversal," used "Equipment Effect 2: Fortune Accumulation" to restore the durability of this fateful artifact to full, and activated "Fortune Power."
[Yes/No to proceed with this enhancement.]
[Enhancing...]
[Dragon-Slaying Flash +16 successful.]
[The success rate for this enhancement has accumulated to 95%. Do you wish to perform a consecutive enhancement? You need to consume one "Primordial Core" to proceed with this enhancement.]
...
A choice lay before him. With this burst of fortune, the randomly generated 95% success rate—should he attempt a consecutive enhancement?
In the past, he would have stopped while ahead. But "Fate Reversal" had proven more than once that it could truly reverse fortune. Both "Finality" and "Perfect Talisman," two top-tier Cyclic Grade equipment, had demonstrated this. The current random 95% success rate was yet another proof.
[Dragon-Slaying Flash +17 successful.]
[The success rate for this enhancement has accumulated to 98% (increased by 3%). Do you wish to perform a consecutive enhancement? You need to consume one "Primordial Core" to proceed with this enhancement.]
[Dragon-Slaying Flash +18 successful.]
[The accumulated success rate for this enhancement has been cleared.]
