Chapter 55: Mass Strengthening
No matter what, Lu Benwei was grateful that Vice President Liu of the Heavenly Dragon Association had helped him out.
“Thank you, Senior,” Lu Benwei said.
Vice President Liu waved his hand and walked to Gao Renchao.
“Gao Renchao, I’ll say it here. I don’t care if Lu Benwei joins the Heavenly Dragon Association or not. I’m protecting him today,” Vice President Liu said to Gao Renchao coldly.
Gao Renchao, however, laughed wildly and said, “Vice President Liu, you said that Lu Benwei hasn’t joined your Heavenly Dragon Association yet. Is it worth it to be enemies with the Hunter Special Combat Class for such a person?”
As soon as he said that, even the surrounding onlookers’ faces turned pale.
In previous years, the students of the Hunter special combat class were all favored by the University student guilds.
Offending an entire Hunter Special Combat Class for this magician called Lu Benwei was like giving up an entire forest for a tree. Many people swallowed their saliva and were worried for Lu Benwei.
Under such an obvious threat, the Heavenly Dragon Association’s Vice President Liu would give up on protecting him.
However…
“It’s worth it!” Vice President Liu’s expression did not change.
As soon as he said that, the surrounding crowd immediately sucked in a cold breath.
The Heavenly Dragon Association was willing to offend the entire Hunter Special Combat Class just for a magician.
Gao Renchao’s mouth twitched when he heard this.
“What a Heavenly Dragon Association!”
“You asked for this!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtVice President Liu ignored him and turned to look at Lu Benwei. A smile reappeared on his face.
“Lu Benwei, let me introduce myself. I’m Liu Qingfeng, the Vice President of the Heavenly Dragon Association.”
“Thank you, Senior Liu Qingfeng, for helping me out.” Lu Benwei nodded.
Liu Qingfeng waved his hand again and continued, “Lu Benwei, I’m sure you know my intentions. I’m now representing the Heavenly Dragon Association to formally extend you an invitation. Are you willing to join the Heavenly Dragon Association?”
The onlookers all turned their eyes to Lu Benwei.
The Heavenly Dragon Association was willing to give up the entire Hunter Special Combat Class for Lu Benwei. It showed that they were very sincere in inviting him.
“Thank you for your kind intentions, Vice President Liu. I don’t have time at the moment and can’t join any associations,” Lu Benwei said.
Hearing this, everyone’s expression changed slightly. What was this freshman named Lu Benwei thinking?
Gao Renchao heard Lu Benwei’s rejection and sneered.
Liu Qingfeng, on the other hand, looked calm and still had a smile.
“Alright, this is your personal right. I can’t force you. Pardon me for asking, but does Junior Lu Benwei have any plans?”
“I want to go to Northwind Mountain to level up. My level is too low now,” Lu Benwei immediately said.
Liu Qingfeng nodded.
“That’s good too. Your biggest weakness right now is that your level is too low. Northwind Mountain is also the most suitable place for you to train. You can consider us when you have time.”
Gao Renchao, on the other hand, sneered in his heart.
…
After Lu Benwei rejected Liu Qingfeng’s kindness, he sent Chu Yan back to the girls’ dormitory.
Before entering the Northwind Mountain, Lu Benwei still had to make one last preparation, which was to upgrade his equipment.
Previously, to get him to agree to the duel, Chu Yan had thrown out 500 enhancement stones. To exchange pointers with Chu Yan, Lu Benwei reluctantly accepted it.
He went to the equipment upgrade area. The first thing he saw was the dazzling array of equipment in the display cabinet.
Lu Benwei’s eyes were dazzled and his heart was extremely shocked.
“The fire equipment set only costs 200,000 hunter coins. It would cost a million gold coins outside, and you might not even be able to buy it!
“There’s also the battle-type mutant monster, the wishful staff dropped by the battle ape, which costs 10 million gold coins outside.
“You only need one million hunter coins to get it in school!”
Everything valuable but not on the market could be exchanged with hunter coins at the equipment upgrade area.
There were already quite a few people in the equipment upgrade area.
Many people saw Lu Benwei looking back and forth at the display cabinet like a dog entering the city. They could not help but frown and look at Lu Benwei in disdain.
“Why is this person acting like a country bumpkin? He has never seen anything precious before?”
“I just saw the school badge. He looks like a freshman.”
“He’s a first-year. No wonder he’s a country bumpkin.”
Lu Benwei heard the whispers of contempt from time to time. He ignored them and started to search for his target.
Many people came to the equipment upgrade office to enhance their equipment. There was a long queue in front of every item.
Lu Benwei frowned.
“There are so many people, when will I be able to queue?”
Lu Benwei looked around and found that there was no one in front of the enhancement stone.
“Strange, why isn’t there a queue in front of this person? I don’t care, he’s the one.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLu Benwei then walked toward the person. This person was an uncle with a messy beard. His entire body was slumped against the chair, and he was sound asleep.
“Uncle, I’m here to enhance my equipment?” Lu Benwei softly called out.
However, his failure to wake up this uncle caused many people to sneer.
“Damn, this freshman actually dared to strengthen his equipment with Tang.”
“No wonder he’s a new student. He doesn’t even know about the black hole in the equipment strengthening area!”
“Save it, first-year,” someone reminded him with a sneer. “The enhancer you chose has a very low success rate. It’s a waste to choose him!”
“Hey, what are you saying? You’re usually very lucky. Maybe you can even break Tang’s curse!” someone said in a ridiculing manner.
“You want to break Tang’s curse with just a few enhancement stones?”
The two of them echoed each other and attracted many people’s attention.
At the same time, Tang was also awoken by the noise. Seeing everyone’s reaction, he understood what was going on.
“Student, you can go. It’s just a waste of enhancement stones here.”
Lu Benwei just smiled faintly and said, “Master Tang, it’s fine. I have plenty of enhancement stones.”
After saying that, he took out 100 enhancement stones from his storage ring. The ice-white enhancement stones instantly formed a small hill.
The people witnessing this went pale.
“Are you serious?” Old Tang’s pupils shrank.
“Master Tang, just enhance it,” Lu Benwei lightly said. After saying that, he took out the entire Viper Set.
At the same time, he said, “Master Tang, I’m in a hurry. Please enhance this set of equipment.”
Mass-strengthening?!
As soon as he said that, everyone’s eyes widened and their mouths were agape.
Enhancing equipment was a matter of luck, and even the most powerful enhancer would find it difficult to control the rate of enhancement. If he wanted to strengthen it in batches, the chances would be even lower.
Was this freshman here to be a joke?
