Chapter 128 Tasks and Rewards
The players had grown accustomed to Lin Bai’s quirky behavior, but they still cooperated with him to complete his tasks. After all, Lin Bai was their ’sugar daddy,’ and besides, the Disciples of the Beggar Gang were never short of money. Pleasing Lin, the Storekeeper, with 300 coins to receive a personalized engraved weapon in return was quite a bargain.
One side put on an awkward performance, while the other played along.
Lin Bai’s God of Craftsmen System tasks progressed swiftly.
[Sell ten weapons at triple the market price... (completed); Reward: Blacksmith’s Bellows]
[Forge a set of combined quality weapons... (completed); Reward: Blacksmith’s Furnace]
[Approval of the masses, repeat customers at the weapon shop... (completed); Reward: Blacksmith’s Grindstone]
...
A comical play ensued, with people taking turns to act.
By dusk, Lin Bai had gathered a complete Blacksmith set, increasing his Artifact Refining success rate by sixty percent. This meant that when using the Blacksmith set to upgrade weapons, he had over a fifty percent chance of success. This success rate was actually quite high.
The crucial point was that with Lin Bai’s Luck Value providing an "Emperor" boost, his success rate for Artifact Refining using the Blacksmith set was likely higher than sixty percent. Of course, whether the Luck Value helped Lin Bai successfully refine a weapon or ruin it depended on his intentions. Luck Value only affected Lin Bai, not the owner of the items. If Lin Bai wanted to destroy a weapon, but his Luck Value caused it to be successfully refined, then it wouldn’t be much of a Luck Value at all...
[Sell one hundred engraved weapons and earn high praise from customers; Reward: Fundamental Engraving Technique]
After assembling the full Refining Set, the God of Craftsmen System bestowed even more practical rewards.
