The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 93: Rainbow Effect (2)

Two days later.

From the front entrance, he heard his younger brother’s exclamation.

“Whoa! Hyung, what’s all this!?”

“What’s going on?”

With an indifferent expression, Ryu Min went outside to inspect the stack of delivery boxes.

“They’ve arrived.”

“Did you order all of this?”

“Yes.”

“What in the world…?”

“It’s nothing. These are items used by players.”

“Oh, is this from that Player-Place marketplace thing?”

“Yeah. By the way, could you help me move these?”

“Sure, hyung.”

Together with his brother, they piled up the delivery boxes neatly in their room.

Clack!

They closed the door and began opening the boxes one by one.

The contents were neatly packed into the 105 parcels he had ordered, and they were a perfect match.

“Alright, let’s dive into some combinations. Let’s start with the surplus of magic stone.”

He began fusing magic stones of the same color, repeatedly, including those he had previously possessed.

“With just 16 lowest-grade magic stones, I can craft one top-tier magic stone.”

The initially large count gradually decreased, and then…

[Combination Successful!]

[You’ve forged a ‘Highest-Grade Red Magic Stone.’]

[You’ve crafted a ‘Highest-Grade Orange Magic Stone.’]

[You’ve produced a ‘Highest-Grade Yellow Magic Stone.’]josei

…

…

[You’ve shaped a ‘Highest-Grade Purple Magic Stone.’]

Seven top-tier Magic Stones, each in a different color, were now in his possession.

“Great. If now I embed these into each piece of equipment…”

Weapons, helmets, armor, gloves, boots, necklaces, and rings.

He implanted the Magic Stones into all seven different items.

[Combination Successful!]

[The ‘Damage +16%’ bonus is added to Death’s Side.]

[You’ve got a ‘Strength +32’ bonus on Hermes’s Feathered Helm.]

[The Wanderer’s Linen Clothes now grants a ‘Luck +32’ bonus.]

…

…

[The Ring of Resistance is now enhanced with the ‘All Stats +16’ bonus.]

All of his equipment had been adorned with these top-tier Magic Stones.

Once he put them on, Ryu Min’s stats skyrocketed.

-Strength: 206, Intelligence: 284

-Agility: 244, Luck: 202

“All of my stats are now above 200, even without the Slaughter Rune and Bless Buff.”

Ryu Min couldn’t help but smile with satisfaction.

But there was more to it.

[You’ve equipped seven highest-grade Magic Stones of different colors.]

[The ‘Rainbow Effect’ buff is now in effect.]

A subtle, shimmering rainbow hue graced Ryu Min’s equipped gear.

It was visible at certain angles but not overly conspicuous.

What’s more, the Rainbow Effect wasn’t merely a visual upgrade.

[Due to the Rainbow Effect buff, your resistance to status ailments has increased by 50%.]

For Ryu Min, status ailments were the most menacing threat.

With the Rainbow Effect, he could bolster his resistance to them by 50%.

No wonder Ryu Min’s smile remained unwavering; it was indeed a significant gain.

“A 50% resistance boost is incredibly helpful.”

Now, if we factor in Java’s necklace with 35%, the Ring of Resistance with 35%, and the base resistance of 15% from the common skill…

“0.5 x 0.65 x 0.65 x 0.85 = 0.179. I can prevent status ailments with an approximately 82.1% success rate.”

If it had been a sum operation, it would have already exceeded 100%, but unfortunately, the system’s percentage is applied as a multiplication operation.

Wearing magic stones of different colors indeed offered tremendous benefits.

‘But most people won’t receive a similar buff. It’s not something achievable with regular magic stones.’

The Rainbow Effect activates when you wear the top-tier Magic Stones of each color.

Lower-grade Magic Stones won’t trigger the buff.

“Most people will find it difficult to create even intermediate Magic Stones. There’s a limit to the Magic Stones individuals can obtain.”

Therefore, at this point, aside from Ryu Min, there likely isn’t anyone else with top-tier Magic Stones equipped.

He had monopolized every single Magic Stone.

“Of course, with time, more will become available.”

People looking to acquire Magic Stones through trade websites would emerge sooner or later.

“But by then, the value of Magic Stones will skyrocket, and scarcity will become an issue.”

Currently, even the lowest-grade ones cost over 2 million won. And that’s just for the lowest grade.

In the future, prices will likely exceed 20 million won.

Later on, Magic Stones may become as plentiful as beans during a drought.

Because if you have one, you will think it would be a waste to give them away.

“Being an early bird has its advantages.”

Since he had already created top-tier ones, Ryu Min didn’t need Magic Stones for the time being.

Now, it was time to craft unique items.

“Making unique items is straightforward. You just need to put the main item you want to enhance and the specified materials into the secondary materials.”

It wasn’t about creating entirely new items but rather enhancing existing ones.

However, Ryu Min didn’t have immediate plans for it.

“I’ve got the materials, but I’ll hold off for now. It’s more advantageous to enhance high-tier equipment, so the grade of the primary equipment should be higher.”

Currently, Ryu Min is at level 54.

He would reach level 60 in no time.

‘Then my grade will rise to Master and the level of equipment I can buy at the store will also rise. ‘Unique item combinations should be done then.’

It would be a better deal to raise the grade and buy Master-grade equipment from the store for crafting.

‘For now, I should focus on securing unique materials in advance. After all, I’m not far from reaching level 60.’

During this time, Ryu Min decided to keep checking the app for unique materials whenever he had a moment.

Once he reached level 60, he could enhance all his items to a unique grade.

‘I wonder if any new materials have come up even now.’

With this thought in mind, Ryu Min opened the app to check for any recently added materials.

However…

“Huh?”

As Ryu Min examined the recently added materials, his eyes blinked in disbelief.

“Wait, this… this is…”

The reason for Ryu Min’s astonishment was nothing short of extraordinary.

“These are the materials needed for legendary item crafting, aren’t they?”

Because there were items posted that were not commonly seen.
