Chapter 341: Chapter 275: Facing the Situation After Enhancement_1

"Can this thing be used as an enhancement material?" At Dusk Cathedral, Zheng Yichen held the palm-sized dragon scale, a magic tool created by the fire dragon that could turn the Fire Rain Technique into the Meteor Fire Rain Technique as an auxiliary item. Zheng Yichen tried it out in an alien world, and the effect was very good.

Under the premise of equivalent consumption, the power it exerted was much greater than that of using Hellfire directly.

So Zheng Yichen thought of Dusk.

"Yes, two million per merit point," Tia quoted Zheng Yichen a price that made him feel something was a bit off.

He quickly asked, "I want to confirm something, is the base price for enhancing this thing one merit point from now on?"

"Yes, the quality of the weapon determines its value."

No wonder the Dusk mercenaries always wanted to work hard at Dusk, according to such consumption, to create a set of true Super God equipment, they would need more merit points rather than less, even a seemingly unimportant enhancement would directly consume merit points and money. The latter wasn’t too important, but the former indeed was.

Zheng Yichen spent the money. He wouldn’t be frugal when it came to enhancing his attack methods; being frugal was being irresponsible to oneself. As for acquiring new ’magic power plugins’ in the future, he would spend the money then—as long as the total number of points wasn’t affected, that would be fine.

As he handed over the scale to Tia, Zheng Yichen suddenly had a bold idea, "What if there’s a lot of magic quantity in this scale?"

"Extra charge."

"That’s simple."

"Including the increase of merit points."

"Then forget it."

Zheng Yichen wasn’t clear on why he had to pay more at Dusk, but he had never been at a loss while enjoying their enhancement service, so there must be a reason for it. He’d try out the effect first. It was less than half an hour before Tia returned and handed the fishing rod to Zheng Yichen.

Zheng Yichen took the item and planned to leave, "I’m going to find a place to test the effect."

The departing Zheng Yichen didn’t ride a motorcycle but instead cycled on a bicycle, as this would not get stopped by the traffic police...

"Kid, you can slow down." On the road, a police officer on a motorcycle caught up with Zheng Yichen.

"I’m in a hurry," Zheng Yichen told the officer, who didn’t seem intent on making an arrest.

The police officer looked at his own speedometer, forty kilometers per hour; he was riding a petrol-powered bike, and that speed was normal, but pedaling was not so normal. Mostly because Zheng Yichen looked young and riding too fast could easily lead to an accident requiring a hospital visit.

"Where are you going? I can give you a lift."

Zheng Yichen slowed down, "No need, I’ll just ride slower."

Zheng Yichen didn’t want to cause any trouble for the obviously well-intentioned police officer, and continued all the way to the southern forest, where he directly entered. Hunters in the vicinity all knew that there was a kid who liked coming here recently.

More importantly, the kid was very formidable and had connections with the Ahn family, often entering the southern forest alone yet always managing to leave safely.

Inside the southern forest, Zheng Yichen planned to find a suitable alien world. He had a detector that could ascertain the stability of anomalous phenomena, although that device wasn’t very reliable in the southern forest due to the numerous anomalies here, compounded by environmental effects, the analysis from the detector could only be used as a reference.

He wasn’t planning on sightseeing in an alien world for an extended period of time, he merely wanted to find a suitable place to test some equipment...

For this purpose, he had casually chosen a stable anomaly, but what he saw after arriving was a civilization in ruins.

It was night here, and in the sky, one could see a moon shattered in half. The fragmented moon, along with its more intact counterpart, was accompanied by numerous small points of light. These were not stars; some were wreckages of spacecraft, others satellites and relatively intact ships, and there were also corpses scattered across space.

When he appeared here, a giant beam of light from the sky swept over him, making him the most conspicuous person there. Then Zheng Yichen saw a missile floating down from those ’remains’ in the sky.

"Damn it!!" Swinging the fishing rod in his hand, Zheng Yichen’s expression suddenly became strained. This world’s environment was even lower than Hazy City’s, the lowest he had ever encountered!

However, the technological level of this world seemed quite high; they seemed capable of space travel, at least within the star system—if not interstellar travel. But clearly, some kind of war had occurred, leaving the sky littered with a massive amount of ’space debris’.

And those things were still operational. After the scout ship locked onto Zheng Yichen, it directly sent a missile rocketing down at him—and it was homing.

At this time, Zheng Yichen’s phone also rang. He took it out and saw a message from Tia, telling him it was time for work.

"Tsk, I’m still a child. Using child labor is illegal..." Watching the missile about to hit, Zheng Yichen wisely chose to run away, with the anomaly behind him not disappearing in some cliché last-second miracle.

After he left, the missile that fell from the sky exploded violently, destroying everything around it, and the planet, covered in space debris, returned once again to its original state of icy silence.

"A world with such a low environment having developed to that extent, yet completely destroyed—it’s kind of a pity," Zheng Yichen mused after reading the message. He put away his phone and, as usual, just needed to clock in at the Dusk Cathedral for work within the next twenty-four hours.

This didn’t affect the testing he wanted to conduct. He switched to another alien world. This one was much more normal, only that its energy level was not high though its strength level was acceptable enough for him.

Zheng Yichen took his fishing rod very seriously because Hellfire was very lowly affected by the environment. As long as his Life Force was sufficient, no matter how poor the environment, he could manage enough flames.

With an appropriate strength level, his Life Force would become even more vigorous. Such an environment was also enough. There weren’t any living people around, so he swung the fishing rod in his hand, unleashing a meteor fire rain on the empty ground.

Fireballs with an eerie green hue carrying a whiff of death emerged in the air and plummeted to the ground. After pounding the earth into deep craters, the Hellfire also splashed around with the explosions.

Zheng Yichen pondered adding a ’magic power plugin’ to the weapon to change the form of the meteor fire rain... possibly to a Chaos Rain that turned into Hellfire stone giants upon hitting the ground.

"...I’ll deal with that when I get a chance. The performance of this test has already satisfied me," Zheng Yichen thought. Compared to directly using dragon scales to release meteor fire rain, not only was the power greater and the release speed faster now, but the consumption had also significantly decreased.

The money was well spent. He even felt that it was because of this very enhancement that he was called in to work early. After continuing the test, the sky this time did not rain down fireballs like meteors but rather thousands of flame droplets the size of a little finger.

Fire Rain Technique, the lesser magic of meteor fire rain.

Using this magic with the fishing rod, Zheng Yichen also felt a massive reduction in consumption, and the power of the Fire Rain Technique was enhanced. It was no longer weak like the previous Hellfire-compatible Fire Rain Technique.

It was as easy and smooth to use as the direct meteor fire rain now.

This gave Zheng Yichen a new idea. In the future when enhancing weapons, he could skip the low-level ’magic plugins’ and aim directly for the highest-tier ones. He could simply learn the related lesser magic himself.

Pleased with the test results, Zheng Yichen left the world. Not long after, some indigenous people dressed in ancient garments gathered here. They worshiped the flames left on the ground, with some carrying rough clay pots, muttering something, and preserving some of the remaining Hellfire.

At this time, Zheng Yichen was already pedaling his bike towards home, ready for another day of work and needing to inform his family first.
