Chapter 404: Are there really such short-lived ghosts?

Lu Li's last condition was also a sudden idea. He thought that since Chu Chu could make a bed that restored mana, health, and luck, perhaps he could also make a bed that slowly increased lifespan.

"Warm Yang Shouyuan?"

Chu Chu looked at Lu Li with a strange expression, tiptoed, and raised her hand to stir the tuft of white hair on Lu Li's forehead.

Because it was not an attack, the space would not lower a defensive barrier or anything. She laughed out loud after picking up the tuft of white hair, laughing unscrupulously under Lu Li's dark face, "Hahaha, you are not going to die of old age, are you? Are you a short-lived ghost?"

"What are you talking about? I was just a bit violent in the recent battle and overdrawn some of my essence."

Lu Li said dissatisfiedly, "Can it be done?"

Chu Chu laughed for a long time before stopping. Lu Li didn't know what was so funny. The other party seemed to find it fun to see a short-lived ghost.

Chuchu wiped the water from the corners of her eyes and said, "Yes, I can do it. Don't look at me like that. I'm not laughing at you. I'm laughing at my previous thoughts."

Chuchu explained: "I saw the term 'life span' in a category of a bed furniture catalog before, and I was wondering who would need it, and I... Anyway, I just wanted to complain, but it turns out that someone in the space actually needed it."

She remembered that in that book, there were several major categories placed at the front, such as sturdiness, comfort, assistance, luck, and nourishing longevity.

She couldn't understand it at the time and was shocked. She asked the elders in her family, but they also looked strange and didn't say much to her.

Now it’s good. I didn’t expect that this technology could actually be used.

"How much does it cost?"

Lu Li asked with a dark face. He was not a short-lived person, it was just that his life might be more difficult after the martial arts furnace.

"This is a highly technical job. Tell me your budget first. This bed must be at least epic in order to have a certain effect."

Chuchu walked to her workstation and sat down, taking out some banknotes. She was quite serious after getting into work mode.

“Can you give me an estimate of the specific effects?”

Lu Li thought for a moment and said that he wanted to confirm whether the effect was strong. If it was the kind of bed that would take a year to recover in one or two years, he felt it would be useless.

Although it is considered a treasure to ordinary people and even the natives of the world of immortal cultivation, something with long-term effect is of little use to someone like him who is rapidly consuming his lifespan.

"If it's epic, if I do well, I should be able to sleep for about a hundred hours and restore one year of lifespan?"

As Chuchu was thinking, the end of the pen in her hand poked her cheek, making it slightly concave. "But it can also slow down aging. It can curb the power that consumes your life to a certain extent."

Lu Li was a little surprised when he heard this. Although regaining one year of lifespan in a hundred hours doesn't sound like much, it is already considerable. More importantly, the anti-aging effect may also be effective for his own furnace deduction.

"What about the Dark Gold level?"

he asked excitedly.

"For the dark gold level, I estimate that after ten hours on it, one year of lifespan will be restored. The effect of warming and delaying the loss of lifespan will also be stronger."

Chu Chu thought, "But you have to be careful, this is recovery, it can't increase your lifespan limit. If you are really the kind of person who can only live to be in your twenties, I can't save you. You should go buy the elixir."

"How can there be someone as powerful as me who can only live to be in his twenties? Stop joking."

Lu Li smiled and said, "A dark gold grade one will do. How much do you think it will cost?"

"Although it's furniture, if it's related to life span, we need to use some more expensive materials, so the fee this time is not low, it's four hundred thousand."

Chuchu was writing and drawing on the paper, apparently thinking about the materials and making a budget.

"Okay, let's talk about the other pieces of equipment next."

Lu Li had no intention of bargaining. Ordinary dark gold quality equipment was probably priced at this price, and top-quality items could be sold for four or five hundred thousand, not to mention a bed with such a special effect.

Since it is a nourishing bed, there is no drug resistance. It would be even better if his origin could be repaired while he is practicing, reducing the amount of lifespan lost.

Next, he and Chuchu started a passionate discussion about Party A and Party B.

After a while, Chu Chu's face turned red with anger, "You are still as demanding as always!"

"Just tell me if you can do it or not? Can't do it?"

Lu Li asked back with a smile.

"Don't think your provocation will work every time. I'm going to say this: even if I jump out of the End Space today and die in the mission world, I will never satisfy your outrageous demands!"

Chu Chu jumped up angrily, without any ladylike image at all. She put one foot on the work table, and the graceful curve of her white calves was a little dazzling under the light.

"Just be patient. I didn't say you have to do it that way. Just do your best. I don't ask for that much."

Lu Li said in a serious tone, "Party A's statement"

After a long while, Chu Chu finally recovered her breath and said, "Forget it. You are my first client after all. I will just try to help you."

As she spoke, she held out her hand, "Bring the bed, a total of 2.7 million!"

They had just agreed on the price. In fact, equipment like windbreakers and shoes could be customized to the full-rated dark gold level. Given their frequent trading relationship, a single piece could be sold for 70.

But Lu Li always likes to make things difficult for the blacksmith, so the price of materials has increased a bit, now calculated at 75 per piece.

As for the internal and external armor-type equipment, which are originally the core of the explorer's protection, in pursuit of perfection, the price of this customization is also higher. Chuchu wants 80.

Including the bed that was agreed upon earlier, the total cost is 270 million.

After agreeing on the custom-made equipment, Lu Li's wallet suddenly shrank drastically, with only 30 left.

This made Lu Li sigh, wondering if he had really let Gu Qiusha go, would he be living a more luxurious life now?

After walking out of Chuchu's private custom shop, Lu Li did not return to the room, but went straight to the equipment enhancement hall.

He is now a man with extremely high luck attributes, and after upgrading, he saw some good things in the official mall of End.

For example, there is a prop called "explosion-proof jade plate" which is sold officially. The unit price is not expensive and you can buy one for only 20,000 yuan.

The effect is also very simple, which is to prevent an explosion once the explorer fails to strengthen his equipment.

After the equipment is enhanced to +8, if it fails, it will not be as simple as losing level, but will explode directly.

This explosion-proof jade plate is used here. Before strengthening, put the equipment together with it into the strengthening device. If it fails, the jade plate will shatter, but the equipment will not explode, it will only drop in level.

This explosion-proof jade plate is effective before the equipment is enhanced to +11, but it is useless for enhancements after +11. Lu Li also saw it on the board in the enhancement hall. It is said that the highest level of enhancement is +20.

He felt that this level was too outrageous, and it was a bit like someone had written it on the board in order to ruin everyone's "Taoism", but it was impossible to verify whether it was true or not.

Anyway, Lu Li had only seen +11 equipment at most, a magic staff used by a wizard in the market, and the asking price was outrageous. Lu Li didn't have much money left, and he didn't plan to buy more dark gold equipment, because he felt that his strength was about to enter a period of rapid development, and he might have to change to a holy relic set in two worlds, so it would be fine for now.

It is enough for him to have clothes to wear, core protective gear, and shoes to support him in running.

Anyway, his accessories were not damaged in the battle with the Soul Singer, and the abilities of the pendant and the Magic Drink Ring could still be activated at full power, so it would be nice for him to use another world.

Therefore, he plans to spend the remaining money on equipment enhancement. He won't lose money by enhancing the equipment with growth potential. Even if his level drops due to advancement, he can still enjoy the combat power bonus in the current world, and he won't exchange the growth equipment.

Under the strange gazes of the explorers in the equipment enhancement hall, Lu Li took out his bed that could increase luck, sat cross-legged on it, held the broken jade in his left hand, and threw the prisoner demon and the explosion-proof jade plate he bought in the End Mall into it with his right hand.

[The current enhancement level of the Prisoner is +6, the enhancement success rate is 58.6%, and 8000 End Coins are required. Do you want to enhance it? ]

Because it was upgraded to dark gold equipment, the price required to strengthen the Demon Prisoner became more expensive. Lu Li was not surprised and chose to strengthen it directly.

[Reinforcement failed, the prisoner's enhancement level dropped to +5. ]

As a result, the prompt sound of the End Space made Lu Li completely confused.

He first looked at the bed under him, then at the broken jade in his left hand, and finally fixed his eyes on the personal details menu. He looked at his 13 temporary lucky attributes and fell into deep thought.

Isn't this wrong?

Lu Li calmed himself down and put the imprisoned demon back into the strengthening furnace.

[The current enhancement level of the Prisoner is +5, the enhancement success rate is 68.6%, and 8000 End Coins are required. Do you want to enhance it? ]

After confirming again, Lu Li waited patiently for the result.

After a while, there was a ding sound and a prompt came from the End Space.

[Strengthening successful, the current strengthening level of the prisoner is +6, the strengthening success rate is 58.6%, 8000 End Coins are required, do you want to continue strengthening? ]

"Keep going, don't stop."

Lu Li chose to continue, preparing to rush to level 8 first.

The result is that it failed again, and the prisoner fell back to +5
Lu Li's face darkened a little, and he began to doubt whether his ten points of luck were real or fake. Could it be that the temporary luck attribute was a little fake?

He shouldn't have done that. He was fine opening the box before.

He took a deep breath and chose to continue strengthening.

[Strengthening success...]

Three consecutive reminder sounds eased the heavy expression on Lu Li's face a little.

Then he concentrated his mind. If the demon-imprisoning enhancement failed and the explosion-proof jade plate exploded, he would have to buy a new jade plate and put it in.

[Strengthening success...]

There were three more notification sounds, which stunned Lu Li. Then he was overjoyed. He thought to himself that his luck was really amazing.

He took out the Prisoner Demon that had been enhanced to +11 and took a look at it. He discovered that in addition to the sudden increase in sharpness, the Prisoner Demon also had a new enhanced special effect.

[Enhancement +11 Characteristics: Plunderer]

Function: When the Pioneer uses the Prisoner to kill the opponent, he can initiate a plunder while the Prisoner is devouring its soul. If the target is not an explorer, and his life span is plundered to replenish his own, the stronger the target is and the longer its original life span is, the higher the benefit.

If the target is an explorer, an item in the opponent's storage space will be looted when killed. This effect does not affect the drop rate of the dead's treasure chest.

After Lu Li read the details of this special effect, he exclaimed in his heart, "Oh my god!"
He looked up at the non-existent sky and thought to himself, could it be that the End Space knew what he wanted? If only someone could send him a pillow when he was sleepy.

He is now in need of longevity to deduce martial arts. To be honest, even if he has elixirs and a bed, he feels that they cannot meet his needs for deducing a large number of skills in the future.

But with this +11 plunderer special effect, it would be much easier for him to deduce martial arts in the future. He could quickly purify what he had learned and turn it into real combat power.

The second mechanism seemed even more incredible to Lu Li. After killing the explorer, he could actually directly get the things in his storage space. This was basically a way to crack the mechanism of space, right?

But if you think about it carefully, the equipment enhancement effects are abilities granted by space, so there doesn’t seem to be anything strange about it.

After strengthening the Demon Prisoner, Lu Li threw the dark gold Soul Eater Ring into the strengthening furnace.

The Soul Eater had dark gold equipment before entering the world of death, so it was still +8. He put the explosion-proof jade plate that had not been broken into it, and prepared to strengthen it to +11.

[Reinforcement failed, Soul Eater's reinforcement level dropped to +7, and the explosion-proof jade plate was broken. ]

As a result, the first wave of enhancements gave Lu Li a wake-up call, forcing him to exchange for an explosion-proof jade plate again and continue to enhance the Soul Eater.

Around dawn, when Lu Li's wallet had shrunk to less than a hundred thousand, he finally strengthened the Soul Eater to +11.

I can only say that the equipment enhancement hall is really not a place for ordinary people to play. It is so difficult to enhance equipment with such a high luck attribute. For ordinary people, +8 may be the limit.

Lu Li took the Soul Eater out of the bronze tripod. The original "moderate" characteristic was gone, replaced by a new characteristic.

[Enhancement +11 Features: Overclocking]

Effect: When Soul Eater activates Psionic Agitation, the maximum number of triggers per second increases from 4 to 7.

What a plain description, but Lu Li was very satisfied with this new feature, which was much better than mediocrity.

He doesn't need the mana-saving effect of Zhongyong at all. His Prison Demon can absorb soul source. Now he has the Fairy Seed, so the last thing he will lack in the future is soul source.

An overclocking feature like this directly increases the Soul Eater's DPS limit by 75%. This kind of direct damage increase is what Lu Li likes the most.

If he activates his Bankai and strikes someone now, it will trigger an outrageous chain reaction.

First, the healing was almost completely banned, and then the Soul Eater's 30% soul source limit of true damage began to flash frequently, flashing seven times a second...

Lu Li felt that his attack could really be called an instant kill.

After strengthening his equipment, Lu Li was about to go back to study his fairy seed, but he heard a prompt from the End Space, telling him that his title in the arena was invalid.
