Chapter 41: Perfect Set

  After completing the Wind Mercenary Group's grievance mission, Lin Chen let out a long sigh of relief in his heart. This five-star mission was indeed troublesome, but fortunately, the reward was pretty good - a skill book for "Inner Strength Shield" and 9,000 experience points, which instantly boosted Lin Chen's experience bar by a large margin. He was now only 4,000 experience points away from reaching level 16, and the level 16 skill book "Instant Step" was still in his inventory.

  Although in "Tianxian", Lin Chen is a down-to-earth player, but for the basic skills before level 20 job change, Lin Chen is still very clear that if he learns the skill of Instant Step, his life safety can be guaranteed immediately.

  With the captive captain, Lin Chen walked out of the Storm Mercenary Corps base amidst the thanks of the centurions and others. The archer saw that Lin Chen had indeed brought the captain out, and was overcome with emotion once again. It turned out that this archer was actually the son of the captive captain, no wonder he had risked his life to rescue him.

  Long Blade Wing is now in hand, Lin Chen finally has a stone to fall on the ground, with Ares, humming a little tune to the trading market, bought a batch of materials needed for equipment refining back, 24,000 gold coins just went to one decimal place.

  When they returned to the hotel, it was almost noon. Lin Chen and Xia Lu discussed for a while and decided to leave after lunch, heading to the Imperial Capital. Then Lin Chen went back to his room, closed the door, and started refining equipment.

  "Sir, are you telling the truth?" Atres, who had not spoken all along the way, finally got the chance to be alone and opened his mouth, staring at Lin Chen and asking.

  "Really? What really?", one side is taking out the materials from the package, while hearing Yate's words, Lin Chen was stunned, looking at Yate with some confusion, not knowing what he meant.

  "What you said about the ghost world, is it true?" Yatse looked at Lin Chen and asked with his mouth open, obviously the legend of the ghost world had deeply shocked him.

  Originally wanting to say it was fake, Lin Chen had been deeply influenced by the idea of atheism after 20 years of scientific education. However, when he opened his mouth, he thought about his current situation - not only could he travel through time and space, but he also possessed the ability to kill monsters and level up, as well as the magic in this world, all of which couldn't be explained by science. Moreover, even Confucius, a great sage, had only said "I do not speak of strange forces or gods", and even Confucius himself didn't dare to make a conclusion about things he couldn't explain, so how could Lin Chen?

  "I really don't know, the legend of the ghost realm is both true and false, I also can't say whether it's real or not...", Lin Chen shook his head as he said this, at the same time taking out the Dragon Blade Wing and the skill book "Internal Energy Shield" from his bag. He tossed the Dragon Blade Wing to Ates, while Lin Chen opened up the "Internal Energy Shield" skill book.

  A burst of white light flashed by, and the skill book transformed into a ball of white light that directly entered Lin Chen's body. At the same time, an additional skill mark appeared in Lin Chen's body, which was the Inner Strength Shield skill: Inner Strength Shield: +5% overall defense, lasts for 30 minutes, consumes 25 MP, level 13.

  "Wow! What is that?!", Artas was overjoyed and excited to have obtained the Dragon Blade Feather, and he also wanted to thank Lin Chen, but when he saw a book in Lin Chen's hand, it suddenly turned into white light and entered Lin Chen's body. Artas asked in surprise, and Lin Chen became even more mysterious.

  "Huh? That was just a skill," Lin Chen replied indifferently to Yate's words, not bothering to explain further. He simply took out the materials in his hand and began crafting equipment. His current strength was too great, and leveling up wasn't something that could be rushed. For now, his only hope for increasing his combat power lay in his equipment.

  "God... Divine Refining Technique...... Equipment Refining......", At this, seeing Lin Chen refining equipment in front of it, Ates's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide, even the Dragon Blade fell to the ground, but Ates didn't notice. Just like with potion refinement, those who can refine equipment using divine refining technique are at least epic-level existences.

  Epic caster, in terms of status, is slightly more prestigious than pharmacist. Why? Because for everyone, a good piece of equipment is absolutely more tempting than medicine, because equipment can be used forever, but medicine is just a consumable item.

  His eyes widened as he stared at the equipment taking shape in Lin Chen's hands, and Atre was thoroughly stunned. A Supreme-level Alchemist was already something that Atre could barely accept, but then there was also a Legendary-level Blacksmith? Was this even letting people live?

  After spending over ten minutes, the set of equipment he needed had finally taken shape. Even his original equipment had been refined with additional materials, all reaching perfect grade. Putting on all the perfect-grade equipment made Lin Chen feel that his combat strength had increased by at least tenfold or more. This was the power of equipment.

  "Wow... amazing... this is a full set of perfect equipment...", Ates stared at Lin Chen's outfit with wide eyes, having just followed him in the trading market, buying iron ore and copper ore, and then buying magic crystals. Ates had been wondering why Lin Chen wanted to buy these materials, but now he understood.

  "Oh, look at me, I forgot to craft a set of equipment for you", looking at Yat's appearance, Lin Chen suddenly realized that although Yat was a land dragon, some parts could still be armed with, in "Tian Jue", pet equipment, Lin Chen would also craft.

  "Hey, are you not only a pharmacist but also a casting master?", Yatse said, ignoring Lin Chen's evasive answer and staring at the perfect equipment that had just been freshly forged.

  "Didn't you see that? Do you still need to ask?" Lin Chen gave Aites a white eye and stopped paying attention to him, instead carefully examining the perfect equipment on his body, nodding secretly to himself. For now, this set of equipment is not bad.
