Vol. 4 - Chapter 248 - Equipment Reinforcement Jewel Importance and The Dizzying Amount

Jurra rex combined drops were Equipment Reinforcement Jewel × 14. To be honest, I couldn't be anymore happier.

For Equipment Reinforcement Jewel just hold that much importance, and they don't dropped anywhere else but in the silver treasure chest of Intermediate or higher dungeon bosses.

But since silver chests were dropped only three times including regular boss and watcher type F-BOSS, it was a big deal for 14 of them to drop at once.

After all, no amounts was too much if i wanted to strengthen the equipment of all members. To further trail down why it's a big deal, it was because of the strict requirement to reinforce the equipment which was that they required the same number of reinforcement jewels as the + value of an equipment.

For example, required reinforcement jewel needed for Equipment +1 was 1.

In the same fashion, there would be the need for 2 reinforced jewels for Equipment +2. That makes the total number needed 3.

For Equipment +3, it would be 3. The total is 6 reinforced jewels.

For Equipment +4, it would be 4. The total is 10 reinforced jewels.

And so on.

If you want the best and top of the line equipment, you have to continue until the value reaches +10 which makes the total number of reinforced jewels required 55. And this is the value for only one piece of equipment.

Just thinking about the number that would be needed to upgrade all the equipment of all guild members made me dizzy. Nevertheless, if I tried to count,

A one person complete equipment set consists of parts for Right hand, Left hand, Head, Body ?, Body ?, Arms, Legs, Accessory ?, Accessory ?: A total of 9 equipment was the limit, while the maximum number a guild could have is 50.

So a total of (9 piece × 55 jewel × 50 members = 24,750) reinforcement jewels would be needed in order for me to fully upgrade them.

It made me crack up.

In the game, I didn't even know how many times I had cried just because there wasn't enough time even though I wanted to fully reinforce all my equipment.

Developers, you moron! The hell could anyone get 24,750 reinforcement jewel!

No well, there were also videos with title [Guild Members line up equipped with fully reinforced equipment] normally circulating in the game. I remembered doing it too. That was one of "never underestimate the crazy enthusiasm of Dungeon Activitiy players" case.

Ahem. Topic got derailed but anyway, that's how it is. The more there are, the better.

Incidentally, +4 value is the limit for the Intermediate class equipment. Beginner class limit is 2, and so on, the value limit changes depending on respective class.

On the normal basis, reinforcement limit using Equipment Reinforcement Jewel was; Normal Beginner +2, Intermediate +4, Advanced +7 and finally the Top +10.

Anything after that would be needed Ability Max Jewel.

As for the Top class equipment that causes the limit break at the maximum maximum number of reinforcement which I don't really what in hell was that..... Let's don't think about it, there's no way but to ignore it. Yes, for the peace of my heart too.

Anyway, after we collected the drops and pulled ourself together, we resumed our journey aiming for the final floor.

"Hey Zephyr, is it just my imagination or does the monsters on the way are getting more and more stronger!?"

"No, they are indeed strong. Because level of monsters in the lower floors hover around Lv50. Not to say we're in Jurrapa, the dungeon with highest status monsters among all Intermediate dungeon, of course they can't be easily takedown either."

"Geez, you should have said it earlier!"

I did, though? It's just you didn't listen to me, Lana.

Well, that's too familiar case that happens whenever she's overexcited. Apparently, she didn't listen to my words in overexcitement.

From 21st floor, monsters ranging from Lv48~Lv50 began to show up.

The battles weren't exactly smooth but they went fairly well with all us, except Hannah, level being 52.

Although our statuses were extraordinarily high due to high ranking jobs, Jurrapa monsters specialised in the same status type as Brawny Knights. They were quite tough with their build leaning heavily on the side of HP, STR and VIT.

This was the cue for average seniors to not challenge this part.

In fact, even Ester took around a minute until she could defeat one monster.

It was a dunegon quite hard for parties specialising in physical strength. A magic party was best suited for here.

And that's how it usually goes; wandering boss would come out for a surprise attack as challengers made their way, exhaustion piled up from fighting those tough monsters.

Fortunately, we wouldn't need be in vigilance for wandering boss was the first one to be defeated.

So refreshing~, exploration without needing to care for the wandering boss doubles the fun truly.

Though, others didn't seem to share the same feeling as me , unfortunately.

In this way, we gradually scaled down one lower floor after another while taking down the unfamiliar and small fries but strong monsters.

This was the party members of Eden I'm proud of. The monsters were tough, but they all were fighting the battle well within the reason. The fruit of their training and experience so far was finally showing its effect here.

Of course, I didn't forget to check out the hidden room for Silver Chest drops once in a while. We got lots of things items and equipment, but none that we could use. What a pity. But I still collected them since drops from hidden room wouldn't be available again.

However a silver chest on the dead-end became the offering for Hannah.

Even though I was so excited to finally encounter our first treasure chest on a dead-end, but the content was but a junk equipment.

It was an inexpensive and unworthy item, nevertheless, it also had its use.

Offering the drops from Intermediate Silver Chest would grant you considerably good items. For example, offering MP Potion would grant MP High Potion, so items like them were handed to her.

"With this, it should be possible to make around 20 MP High Potion, so please begin at once when we reach the safety area."

"Leave it to me!"

Hannah replied readily. That's the advantage of having an Alchemist in the party, we can have items produce items at the spot among the party members, really.

Repeating the same process, we finally arrived at the safety area around afternoon.

"We're finally here. My words, Intermediate dungeon was more unpredictable than I imagined!"

"Indeed. Hearing was one thing, but actual battles gave me completely different impression. I have to train a bit more."

Unfortunately, next would be the boss battle though, so you can't train anymore, Sierra.

"It's about time to prepare for Lunch, can you help me out here if possible, Hannah?"

"Wait, I will help out. I have asked her to perform alchemy. ??Hannah, please."

"Aye! I will make it quick!"

I and Ester began to prepare lunch, that being said, all that had to be done was took out items from Item Bag.

The rest was to arrange simple table and chairs and everything else and lunch would be ready in no time.

"I'm done! Here is 20 MP High Potion, Zephyr-kun. All of them are high-grade products top~."

It seemed Hannah was also done with her share of work. As expected of her, she's quick.

"Everyone, once you're done with the lunch, put these potions on your bag. These portions are your raison d'etre when you find your MP at the rock bottom during battle, they can restore a total of 155P."

The normal MP restoration value by MP High Potion would have been 100P, but Hannah had Grant Medicine Restoration Value UP Lv1 which increases the given value by 5%, giving an additional 5P.

High grade quality provided a modifier of 1.5× of original value so 150P that and 5P from title means a total of 155P.

"I know. Thank you Hannah. You know, they're really a lifesaver since I relied on MP for everything."

"It's not a big deal~"

Replied Hannah, blushing at Lana's gratified words.

Since Lana played the role of Magic Buffer, Recovery and Attacker side-by-side, her MP exhausted at an astonishing rate. I guess she was very much happy to receive them since the normal MP Potion barely helped her recovering MP. She's a bit too high-spirited.

Afterwards, we began to eat our lunch and rest to restore the stamina.

Finally, it was the time for our first final boss of the Intermediate dungeon, but. Before that was the preparatory meeting to explain the specific about boss. I had to make sure same situation never repeat again.
