◈ 292. [Side Story] Equipment Maintenance
the day after the festival.
People went back to their normal lives.
Hero characters who came out to play at the base camp of the dungeon were no exception.
Kelly Bay, Hannibal, the Holy Grail Exploration Team, and even the Punishment Unit all returned.
Late afternoon after lunch.
I also visited the base camp. I’m a little tired after all night planning my future plans, but I have to do my job.
“Are you going to base camp?”
“Come with me, senior!”
Lucas and Evangeline naturally joined as my escorts. I’m thinking of making your equipment anyway, so that’s good.
After passing through the teleport gate and arriving at the base camp, this place was noticeably more lively than before.
NPCs are striding in a wide space lit by torches.
No hostility can be felt even in the eyes looking at us who have just arrived.
The NPCs I haven’t made friends with yet are secretly wary, but… … . Because I was the one who saved the kidnapped NPCs in the first place.
“Guys, release what you brought over there.”
“Yes, lord.”
I ordered the festival food that Lucas and Evangeline had to bring to the center of the base camp.
Next to the biggest bonfire in the center, a bunch of festive food was placed. It was a consideration that even those who could not come to the festival could taste it.
You’re free to eat it or not, but I’d rather eat it and create friendly feelings on our frontlines.
“Grandma Coco, please eat this.”
I also brought some food to the NPC in charge of teleportation, Coco Granny of Cutting.
“Hi, but the old woman doesn’t forget to take care of it.”
Grandma Coco accepted the food without hesitation, and indifferently chinned the corner of her studio.
“And the teleport gate is complete. Just take it and install it.”
When I looked there in surprise, familiar piles of stones were scattered across the floor.
No, it’s a terribly expensive item, but he threw it around like a stone on the side of the road!
“It was completed three or three days ago. You guys didn’t come because you were playing at the festival.”
Coco, who poured the food I gave her into her witch’s cauldron (?!) giggled.
‘Assuming it was completed three days ago… … Does it take about a week to make one teleport gate?’
I looked at the completed teleport gate and shook my head.
Granny Coco’s temperament is quite impatient, but making the gate takes time. I’ll have to put in a lot of orders in advance and make them non-stop.
“Ah, Your Highness! You are here!”
Just then, Kuylan and the punishment squad appeared.
After roughly accepting their lively greetings, I gestured towards the piles of teleport stones.
“Hey, listen to that.”
“yes?”
“Listen. those stones I have to go install it.”
So, the punishment unit followed me, struggling with the piles of teleport stones.
It seems pretty heavy. Great. Now, let’s get some physical training, Quylan!
The next place I stopped by was Kelly Bay’s studio. I saw Kelly Bay, who was busy tapping the equipment.
Assistant Hannibal is also busy assisting Kelly Bay.
“The festival ended yesterday, but you already look busy. Kelly Bay.”
“Who are you so busy with?!”
Kelly Bay grumbled, her big eyes widening in my direction.
“Leave me to readjust 11 pieces of equipment! Leave this much to your local smithy!”
Kelly Bay was in charge of rearranging the equipment he had purchased from an unknown person.
At that time, I bought 11 SSR-SR grade equipment, so there was a lot of work to readjust.
So as soon as the festival is over, I see you are working hard again.
“No, he said to leave equipment-related requests to him. You’re the father-in-law who said you’d get scolded if you gave it to others.”
“I mean, what if you really leave everything to me? In the future, leave the time management like readjustment to others!”
thud!
Kelly Bay took something off the shelf and set it briskly on the table.
“To me, this is something that only a magic blacksmith can make! You’re asking me to carry out high-level commissions. Algan?”
It was a silver-red fur cloak.
Even if you look at it, the luxurious color flows, as Kelly Bay said, it is high-grade equipment.
I grinned and lifted the cloak to examine it. It’s fluffy, so it’ll be warm in winter.
“You said you were busy, when did you make this again?”
“Obviously, I made this a priority. Put off boring stuff like readjustment.”
After a good laugh with Kelly Bay, I looked back.
“Hey, Quylan!”
Then, Quylan, who was panting after putting down the pile of stones at the teleport gate, looked at me with puzzled eyes.
“What, what, Your Highness. Are you going to make me lift something heavy?”
“No, to wear something heavy.”
I raised my cape and waved it like a bullfighter’s flag.
“Come and try it on.”
“uh… … ? Is that mine?”
okay. If you look at the equipment you are wearing, you are the most expensive kid on the monster front. Another four-piece equipment.
At the word new equipment, Kuylan’s face gradually hardened as he ran with a smile.

“… … No way, this cloak.”
okay. You have your eyes too. I nodded slowly.
It is an equipment made from the magic core of Lunared, the wolf king, who was the boss monster of the previous defense battle.
The third Nightmare Slayer equipment we have, and the first armor among them.
[Full Moon Light Slayer (SSR) Lv.55]
– Classification: Auxiliary Equipment
– Defense: 25-50
– Durability: 24/24
– Stamina +10 Strength +10 Agility +10
– Each time you attack an enemy, your attack speed increases by 5%. The stack lasts for 10 seconds and accumulates up to 10 times.
– When max stack is reached, all attacks deal additional magic damage.
– Receive less damage from all enemy attacks when max stack is reached.
– ??? (Open according to the number of enemies killed with this equipment effect)
– ??? (Open according to the number of enemies killed with this equipment effect)
The option is literally melee normal hit dealer optimization.
If you can keep your attack speed stack up by attacking non-stop, it’s honestly a good item for extra damage plus defense modifiers.
‘If I can’t maintain the stack and get no effect, it’s just an ordinary cloak.’
It’s a very good option even if it’s conditional. After all, this is an accessory!
“… … .”
Quylan accepted the cloak with mixed feelings.
Does it remind him of his older brother and his ancestors?
Flutter-!
Without long hesitation, Quylan draped the cloak behind his back.
A silvery red wolf fur cloak sat down like moonlight on the back of the muscular giant’s 2m tall shoulder.
Everyone in the seats watching burst into a sigh. I was also included.
‘Are people washing clothes after all?’
In the meantime, it was Kuylan who always wore loose clothes and sleeveless tops.
He’s a king of bandits with good words, but he was just a guy who looked like a big beggar king.
Wearing a good-looking cape suddenly makes people look different. The dignity that was not there also flows from the cloak.
“Now you look a bit like the ‘King of Bandits’, Kuylan?”
When I tapped his shoulder, Quylan grinned.
“You are no longer the bandit king, Your Highness.”
“huh?”
“He’s the leader of the Monster Front Punishment Unit.”
No, this bastard makes a wonderful sound for some reason… … !
“You’ve finally come to terms, Quylan… … . big. Well, there are a few pieces of equipment I’ve dedicated to you all this time, but it’s about time to get a maxed out impression… … .”
“Feelings… … ? I don’t know what you mean. Anyhow, thank you. majesty.”
Quylan brought his fists together in front of his chest and bowed to me.
“I will carry this cloak on my back for the rest of my life, along with the fate of my clan.”
Quylan’s face was extremely serious. I also nodded my head.
It is not known exactly what has changed in Quilan’s state of mind since the last defense battle.
This immature bandit king was clearly growing up.
‘Although it’s still a sunfish.’
I tried to erase from my mind the image of him being knocked out in a single blow in a martial arts competition just the other day ago. I also wish you well in the future, Quylan.
The remaining four members of the penal unit were given weapons and equipment that had been readjusted one by one. All of them are SR grade equipment.
‘Because these guys are the immediate power sub-party of our front line.’
You should invest generously.
The members of the penal corps opened their mouths and embraced the equipment they had been provided with in their arms as if they were serving a new liquor complex.
I hope you cut off the monster’s head well with that.
Next, I took out two sets of armor from my recalibrated gear and placed them on the table.
It is an armor composed of two parts, each upper and lower, and is covered with a cloth to prevent dust from settling on the contents.
Looking back, I saw Lucas and Evangeline, their eyes sparkling with anticipation. I chuckled.
“This is your new armor. Everything I used before is gone.”
“Yah-ho-! I was waiting for you!”
Evangeline jumped up and down with joy, but Lucas’ face darkened.
Then, he wiped the rag-like [Ghost Armor] he was wearing with his hand.
“Sorry, lord… … This is also the armor bestowed by the lord, and he intended to wear it for the rest of his life… … .”
“Why do you turn negative circuits so often these days… … ? What do you need to be sorry for? Equipment is essentially consumables.”
The kid is so depressed. No, it happened because I messed with the child… … I need to lighten up a bit… … .
Anyway, it’s a new armor. I first put Lucas’s forward and removed the cloth.
[Midnight (SSR) Lv.49]
[Twilight (SSR) Lv.49]
It is a two-set heavy plate armor consisting of upper body armor [midnight] and lower body armor [twilight].
As the name suggests, it’s a black armor, but the appearance is awesome.
Users who were looking around in the game called it ‘Ribble (Real Black) Armor’ and were frantic to get this set.
Both physical resistance and magic resistance are fully equipped, and the set effect is solid.
> Set Effect: Midnight Twilight (2/2)
– When all sets are equipped, attack power increases by 10% and defense power by 10% for 12 hours after sunset. Movement speed increases by 20% for 12 hours after sunrise.
It doesn’t have any special ability, but it’s just a basic stat of a thug. And the armor is originally better to look at specs rather than special abilities.
“… … .”
Lucas took off his armor and put on a new one.
Kelly Bay and Hannibal stood beside Lucas and helped with the final adjustments to make the armor fit.
After putting on the armor, Lucas became a handsome knight.
The old armor was cool too, but it felt tattered after using it for a long time, but it became a picture when I put it on with a new one.
Should I say it looks like he’s wearing a tailored suit?
“… … I will definitely wear this armor for the rest of my life.”
Lucas nodded resolutely.
Nope. It’s not final armor anyway. I just want to wear it and explode it.
Next, I handed Evangeline the new armor as well.
“Evangeline, it’s yours.”
“Finally-!”
Evangeline rushed in and tore off the cloth covering her armor.
And right after.
“Wow! What is this!”
He screamed and rolled backwards. I hate it that much?!
The armor I prepared for Evangeline is a rare item that can only be obtained here in the dungeon… … .
[Bone Armor Upper Body (SSR) Lv.49]
[Bone Armor Lower Body (SSR) Lv.49]
This is the Bone Armor series!
It’s not just bone armor! SSR grade Bone Armor! It means bone armor made from the bones of a mythical monster!
Overwhelming durability that easily surpasses anything like steel! Overwhelming physical stat correction! Overwhelming physical resistance! For you, a pure tanker, you can’t find better armor than this at this point!
“No, following the golem armor, now the bone armor?!”
However, regardless of the grade or performance, the appearance is bone armor. In Evangeline’s eyes, it doesn’t seem cold at all.
Evangeline screamed in front of me with a face that made the world feel unfair.
“You promised last time! Next time I’ll give you pretty armor! Do you think that armor is pretty in your eyes?!”
“uh. It’s terribly pretty.”
For reference, I am a pragmatic user who has no relationship with ruckus.
As long as the performance is good, I don’t mind letting the character hear only leather pants and a wooden club!
So in the past, when I broadcast other MMORPGs, viewers screamed.
Please wear clothes that are less painful to look at. Stop sticking to that dolmen caveman look.
hey! Does Luk Deokjil feed you?! The performance of equipment is everything that saves a character! woo go woo!
Anyway, in that respect, this armor is incredibly pretty.
It looks a bit… … It has an ignorant appearance, as if only the armor parts were replaced with bones from golem armor, but the performance is almost 1.5 times higher!
“This, this, this… … .”
Evangeline was so disappointed that she had tears in her eyes, pointed her finger at the armor, and shouted at me.
“If you like worn-out armor like this, seniors should wear them!”
