Very soon, Louis heard the sound of hamring coming from the volcano forge.
It was the trolls aiding the skilled craftsn of the Ense Empire in their attempts to further enhance and upgrade Alice's exclusive combat technique.
While Limuru's mastery could easily forge all kinds of divine weapons, creating groundbreaking equipnt ultimately relied on human exploration.
"Your Highness, the plan's targets have been mostly achieved. Would you like to go see the site?"
Louis nodded and stepped forward for a look.
Oh!
Good heavens, this weapon might not rival the Ten Thousand Transformations Sword Pill, but it's fitting as an exclusive weapon specially prepared by the Ashford Family for Alice.
After integrating the exclusive equipnt blueprints of the Red Jade Guard, the improved scimitar continuously emitted destructive power under the blazing flas.
Being a companion, Louis was willing to use so fine materials to help upgrade her equipnt.
Biological tal?
Add it!
Desolate Bone Great Demon's remnants?
Add it!
So rare scraps left over from the divine weapon manufacturing?
Add it!
Gather a group of skilled craftsn adept at forging, and provide them with various completed equipnt blueprints as references.
Louis originally intended to explore a new system towards divine crafted equipnt.
Once Alice's exclusive equipnt blueprints erged, naturally, they beca his focus.
And now, it was the day the equipnt would take shape.
Rumbling sounds ensued as the forged weapon was tempered in water, vast water vapor spread, and as it was pulled out again, a blade blank emitting an icy cold gleam had already taken shape.
The remaining process of attaching the hilt was completed by Louis himself using his mastery.
Holding the weapon, a hint of surprise flashed in Louis's eyes.
"Good stuff."
Even Louis, who possessed the Ten Thousand Transformations Sword Pill, referred to it as good stuff, causing the craftsn nearby to exhibit joyful expressions.
"Your Highness, the Red Jade Guard's exclusive equipnt can enhance divine art abilities. You might want to try the power of the Goddess's gift, which can be considered a variant of divine arts."
Advised one craftsman.
Louis nodded.
The Goddess of Fortune's gifts are threefold.
The one Louis used most often was 'Fortune Scent.'
This effect could accurately perceive the intrinsic value of an item.
But this ability couldn't be enhanced by exclusive equipnt.
At the mont Alice's equipnt was forged, he felt the value far surpassing ordinary equipnt.
Even before usage, it already confird the success of this equipnt forging.
Both 'Money's Power' and 'Golden Throw' are equivalent to using divine arts.
He hesitated not to abandon 'Golden Throw.'
An attack with a full burst infused with 'Golden Throw' would permanently consu 1000 gold coins!
He couldn't possibly attempt this just for testing.
Unless soone covered the costs for him.
But 'Money's Power' was fine.
The 200% critical strike effect was already stacked fully; using this gift further consud only the free divine power granted by the Goddess of Fortune.
He thus wielded it without hesitation.
This strike, Louis's eyes brightened.
The critical hit damage increased to 280%!
This enhancent was indeed significant.
The 200% critical effect was equivalent to a 40% divine art effect increase (80%/200% = 40%).
Such percentage-level enhancent was already extrely extravagant.
Louis activated his mastery without speaking further.
The newly forged weapon instantly lted into a puddle of liquid.
The craftsn present displayed expressions of heartache.
The recently constructed peerless divine weapon lted just like that.
So even began to stand unsteadily.
But they knew why Louis did this.
Nowadays, the precision of human weapon forging couldn't remotely compare with Limuru's mastery.
Although Limuru was sent back to the Fallen Star Sea to assist Olivia with overseas military bases—no, overseas trade regions, he himself possessed mastery too.
Though his magic power was insufficient for constant manipulation like Limuru, forging solo equipnt was still feasible.
During the relting process, he gradually grasped the chanism of divine crafted equipnt effects.
The next mont, the liquidified equipnt reford.
This was the equipnt Louis recreated based on his understanding.
Though aesthetically similar to the prior version, he knew the optimization yielded further amplification benefits.
He held the new equipnt again, employing 'Money's Power.'
The scimitar emitted a sonic boom on him.
"310%? The divine art enhancent reaching 55%, that's indeed the current limit?"
Nearby, hearing Louis sigh, the skilled craftsn's faces turned dark.
Soone said dryly, "Your Highness is formidable, improving the performance by 15% instantly, much more than us old folks."
"Suddenly, my craftsmanship feels so ridiculous," sighed another craftsman, evidently struck hard.
In the domain of equipnt enhancents, even 15% was a major breakthrough.
Even within legendary equipnt, if wielded by two equally skilled individuals, a 15% enhanced equipnt user facing a 20% enhanced equipnt user may turn from evenly matched to suffering defeat in re minutes.
From a 40% boost to a 55% boost, it already equated to skipping three major phases.
And how much ti did His Highness Louis spend?
Less than ten breaths.
Such is the suffocating gap.
