Equipment and Closed Beta
There are several ways to enchant.
There are two most common enchanting methods.
The first method involves Mage casting Magic to add permanent enhancement effects to weapons and equipment!
This is no less significant than increasing attack power, defense power, attributes, or special Skill.
The second type of enchanting involves selecting Magic materials and socketing them into the equipment; these materials are not limited to gems, crystals, Scale, etc.
What William needs to do is the first type of enchantment.
"Hey, here you go." Moxis tossed William's equipment over expressionlessly.
William took the equipment with a grin, and after just one glance at its stats, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Moxis glanced at him and said bluntly, "Finished looking? If you're done, get out of the way. There are other people in line behind you."
"Ahem, there's one more set, but this set only increases attack, not defense, and all enchantments must be Thunder Attribute!" William silently took out another set of Golden Equipment...
Moxis' eyes widened.
But this mere Intermediate-Class Professional has acquired two sets of Gold-Quality armor sets, one primarily defensive and the other primarily offensive?
Are you that rich?
Is that extravagant?
They must be rich!
However, Moxis only grumbled inwardly, but still obediently picked up the equipment and began the easy and enjoyable enchanting process.
Less than 30 seconds later...
That's right.
That's how fast it is.
Moxis's enchantment is complete once again!
He merely glanced at William.
William nodded knowingly, "I understand, I understand. I'll be going now, I'll treat you to drinks tomorrow!"
When he left, the Divination House was completely packed with Elf...
In any case, William didn't waste his time trying to build up his goodwill with Moxis; at least he didn't refuse this large-scale enchanting event.
Although William's behavior was terrible, it gave the bored Moxis something to do.
"Well, after all, my mother always told me that people shouldn't waste time, but should use their limited time on meaningful things, such as... serving the strength of Dawn City." William smacked his lips.
Back inside, I took out all the equipment and experienced its power firsthand!
Two sets of equipment.
A set of armor for going into battle.
A set of armor for field Field Battle.
Both were Gold Set; there was nothing William could do about it—his family was rich, and money could buy anything.
As for the Elf guards' equipment, although their defensive gear is all Silver Set, their weapons are all gold!
William's weapons, on the other hand, were all Dark Gold!
After all, it's difficult for weapons and equipment to form set bonuses...
"Given the current situation, even if the 500 Elven Royal Guard under my command aren't high-level or Skill enough, their equipment is already at the limit for Intermediate-Class Professional." William couldn't possibly replace all the Elven Royal Guard ' equipment with Gold-Quality gear; the cost of that was far beyond what he could afford.
Even so, it completely depleted the hundreds of kilograms of Mithril he had left behind, and he still had to spend a lot of money to buy some Gold Essence, Refined Gold Crystal, and even various rare materials in Blue Moon Town.
Gold Essence, obviously, is a rare material that elevates equipment to the gold quality level, and its value is comparable to that of Mithril Vein.
William was able to produce so many Silver Set only because he didn't sell Mithril for two months.
A complete set of equipment requires five pieces: helmet, chest armor, gauntlets, leg guards, and boots.
William's new outfits are called the Dawn Set and the Thunder Set.
The attributes of the Dawn Set are as follows.
Dawn Helm
Grade: Gold
Rank: Intermediate
Creators: Lotner and Odom Heavyhammer
Materials: Mithril, Iron Essence, Gold Essence.
Head defense: 130~160

Special effect: HP +400
Enchantment: Base Defense +40
The five-piece set bonus (armor, gauntlets, leg guards, shoes, etc.) grants an overall increase of 20% to both defense and HP.
There's no way around it.
Five individual Gold Gear pieces already possess very powerful attributes.
With the set bonus, he's become ridiculously tanky, with his defense and maximum HP increasing by 20%...
But remember!!!
These defensive capabilities cannot be combined. A helmet's defense protects the head, while armor's defense protects the upper body.
It's not the defense value of 5 pieces of equipment combined, that's right... it's that simple...
Only set bonuses increase the overall defense stat.
Even so, William's defensive capabilities remained outrageously high.
He was determined to wear the thickest armor and take the worst beatings.
He wanted to bring out the characteristics of Legendary Boss to the fullest extent, the kind that could withstand a hundred hits from ordinary minions without even flinching!
The Thunder Set is as follows.

"He's outrageously strong. He could become Thunder God from now on. Odom, with his blond hair and wavy hair, can retire now." William licked his lips.
The Thunder Set's strength lies in its amplification of Thunder Attribute and attack power, resulting in explosive damage output. While its defense and HP are significantly reduced, it's undeniably powerful.
The five-piece set provides 170 Thunder Attribute attack power, which, combined with the 130 Thunder attack power from the Battle Aura, totals 300 points.
at the same time.
The set bonus provides a 48% increase to Thunder Attribute damage, and with the additional 10% from the Thunder Talent, the total Thunder Attribute bonus can be increased by 58%!
In the early stages of the game, when most Player have little elemental resistance, he is a humanoid Thunder Dragon!
It hurtled forward with sparks and lightning, sweeping everything in its path, unstoppable.
"If there's a dungeon for me in the future, the Potion for Thunder resistance will sell like hotcakes..." William glanced at his three new Dark-Gold Weapon.
He couldn't help but exclaim again, "I have to say, this weapon looks awesome..."
The [Dawn Sword] has been upgraded to the Dark-Gold Quality [Thunder Sword], with its attributes and attack power skyrocketing and an additional special effect added, but overall the changes are minor.
The other two weapons, however, have undergone significant changes.
Lightning Bow

Venomous Shortsword

Strength +14
Agility +16
Charisma +5
Length: 33cm
Weight: 1.8kg

Special effect: Back attacks increase base attack power by 40%.
Special Effect: Causes a tearing effect, with a 30% chance to inflict Bleed damage on enemies, causing them to lose 100 HP per second for 15 seconds. (This effect cannot be stacked.)
Special effect: Hitting an enemy deals severe poison damage that causes 200 HP points to drop per second, and weakens overall attributes by 10% for 10 seconds (this effect cannot be stacked).
"The effects cannot be stacked. That is, only after the effect ends and you hit the target again with the Short Sword will you be able to deal new special effect damage." William narrowed his eyes. His overall strength had now undergone a tremendous transformation.
William acquired a poison-attribute Short Sword to weaken his enemies. Poisonous weapons, in addition to causing continuous poison damage, also have the ability to weaken their attributes.
The upgrade of his equipment transformed William into a powerful boss among Intermediate-Class Professional.
One of the most crucial aspects is...
The multiple arrows from Lightning Arrow Rain, due to their probability, have a high chance of triggering the set's Chain Lightning, making it a very good Skill clearing monsters.
The powerful equipment gives William the ability to counterattack against all High-Class Professional Professional the top of the current meta.
"But the most surprising thing is that the Epic-Class Inner Armor has been upgraded again," William chuckled.

After putting on the Thunder Set, William couldn't help but smack his lips and chuckle, "These powerful attributes are simply despair-inducing!"
"12,140 HP, officially over 10,000. This doesn't even include the Legendary Bloodline bonus, which is at least three times higher than Player of the same level, especially with such high output and such exaggerated defense~" William couldn't help but chuckle to himself with pride.
"Bang! Bang!"
"Come in!"
Siya seemed to hear the Lord's lewd laughter, but she merely pushed open the door without entering.
certainly.
Her breasts still went in.
William glanced at her almost imperceptibly, then asked with a puzzled look, "What's wrong?"
"The Emissary from the Temple of Light, the Dark Hall, and the Mercenary Guild are here again," Siya said softly at the door.
"Oh, why?" William stood up and walked out.
"They said the branch's location is too remote and they want to discuss with you whether we can change the location!" Siya was also very curious. These three powerful neutral forces have a certain say in any city.
She hadn't expected that the lord would place all three buildings and residences on the outskirts of the city, not in the most commercial district, where there wasn't much foot traffic.
William twitched his lips. "Impossible. Unless they pay for the land, they can't change locations. I've made a tough decision and given them land on the outskirts of the city for free. Build if they want, or get lost."
Go tell them that every square meter of land in the city center is worth at least 1,000 Gold Coin.
Siya counted on her fingers, then her eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at her Lord.
"That 100 square meters of land, wouldn't that be... 100,000 Gold Coin, sir? If land is really that valuable, we could be rich! In that case, could you sponsor us some Magic materials for research?" Siya suddenly blinked her golden eyes, which were filled with gleaming Gold Coin.
William coughed lightly. "You're overthinking it, nobody's going to buy it!"
"..." A black line appeared on Siya's forehead as she retorted, "Then why is it so expensive?"
"You will understand the reason in time."
"Oh, in the future..." Siya nodded thoughtfully, deciding to reply to those guys.
William watched as Siya, with her long legs swaying as she walked away, wiggling her hips. Don't let her seemingly naive and innocent appearance fool you; her Magic Talent is second to none, and she devotes all her energy to studying Magic.
In the Dawn City today, there are not many Mage.
Including the 10 Elven Mage who came with William, and more than 50 others who joined later, 23 of whom Intermediate Mage, and the rest were all Low-Class Mage.
In summary
Unaffiliated Mage usually join a faction.
Magic Sanctum or Magic Guild.
Alternatively, they could follow the example of these Mage and choose to join the Dawn City, becoming part of William's forces.
William provided the funds for them to study Magic.
Otherwise, if Mage these days want to earn money, they'll have to resort to selling themselves...
"A mere 60-odd Mage, and the monthly research funding alone requires over 600 Gold Coin. Is that something an ordinary person can afford?" William wanted to complain, but NPC Mage were just people who researched Magic materials, meditated, and ate Magical Beast meat to level up.
Combat has virtually no effect on their leveling up...
so.
Powerful NPC Mage are all built up with Gold Coin.
Time slips away day by day.
William continued to work hard on the city's development until one day...
[Ding-dong]
[Gods Closed Beta Now Open for 12 Days]
I really don't want to release the data; this is the last time.
I've already deleted most of it, and the changes have completely confused me. My data was complete, but now I'm totally lost and can barely type anymore.
If I were to release all the data, it would be over 6000 words. To be honest, I'm also puzzled. If I count 6000 words as a chapter, I think some people would still say I'm padding it out. I've explained many times that when I release the data, there will be 2000 words of main text. The data is just extra.
But as soon as I see data, it's all filler, no matter how many words there are. It's getting a bit confusing for me too. I don't have that kind of data to fill in the main text anyway. Sigh, never mind.
Note: Chapter 64 is missing because it has been combined into one chapter. The next chapter will skip directly to Chapter 65, and the chapter number will not be changed.
This data editing is giving me a headache. One more chapter, I'll post it tonight. The data is really gone!!!
