Chapter 20 - Upgrade
Inventory had a total of 25 squares, of which only five were filled, and the remaining 20 were empty.
In the first square, Ajax saw the familiar black spirit stone icon with x2 on it.
In the second square, he saw the pendant, which he obtained from killing the black-robed skeleton in the cave.
A shining green coloured stone occupied one of the three squares, through concentrating on that square, the stone came into his hand. Soon another holographic screen above the previous one, with the information explaining about the stone, appeared with a notification 'Ding' sound.
'Ding,
item name:- Medium grade spirit jade
Usage:- Helps in increasing the spirit consciousness of the user by 100 km in the area.
Used:- Through Meditation
rating:- Good.
"What?", when he saw the usage for this medium-grade spirit jade, Ajax's lower jaw dropped with shock.
"It's a treasure for me,", shouted Ajax while he checked the information about it thoroughly.
Because he knew that, the bigger the spirit consciousness was, the longer the summoned elemental spirit could fight alongside the summoner.
Thus, it is a treasured item for summoners.
After feeling happy for some time, he kept the spirit jade in the inventory and proceeded with the next item, which was the egg of a high-grade spirit beast.
'Ding,
item name:-egg of a high-grade spirit beast
description:- it is an egg of an unknown spirit beast found in the depths of the Cursed forest.
rating:- disaster.
"Disaster?" Ajax felt a bad premonition in his heart when he saw the rating 'Disaster.'
Because he knew what it means exactly; 'wherever it goes, it wreaks havoc.'
"I think it's better to break this egg instead of hatching it." But he did not have the heart to break it.
"I will try to control it and don't make it kill unreasonably," thinking he can control it since it will be only a baby spirit beast after hatching.
Although he still did not believe he could control it with the help of this system, he thought he could control it by taking care of it.
After placing the fist-sized egg back into the inventory, his gaze finally landed on the last occupied square in the inventory, which was a medium grade upgrade stone.
'Ding,
item name:- Medium grade upgrade stone
Usage:- it can be used to upgrade any low-grade artifact to the medium grade artifact.
Special effect:- There is a 30 percent chance of obtaining a special result while upgrading.
rating:- Good.
Ajax stared at the holographic screen without blinking his eyes.
After a while
"Looks like lady luck is smiling on me today," Ajax started laughing after he said it.
"With this medium grade upgrade stone, I can upgrade Sigmis' black pendant from low grade to medium grade, I wonder how much it's stats will be increased," Ajax floated in his thoughts regarding Sigmis' black pendant.
That pendant already has 20 percent increase body defence and the 'summon of the dead' skill, if he upgraded it to the medium grade artifact who knows what kind of changes it goes through.
Without any delay, Ajax took out Sigmis' black pendant from the inventory to upgrade it to medium grade.
He held the upgrade stone in one hand and Sigmis' black pendant in the other. But he did not know how to upgrade it.
Soon, a system notification came to his help.
'Ding,
Do you want to upgrade the item, Sigmis' black pendant, from low-grade artifact to medium grade artifact?
"Yes, upgrade it," as he was waiting for this notification, he accepted it quickly.
As soon as he accepted the upgrade request, the upgrade stone and the black pendant floated in front of him in the air.
The upgrade stone melted into a liquid and covered the whole rhombus-shaped black pendant and made it somewhat more impressive.
After a few seconds, the upgraded black pendant, which was more impressive than before, fell into his hands. Right after it landed on his hand, he got a notification explaining about it.
'Ding,
Successfully Upgraded the low-grade artifact to medium grade artifact.'
'Ding,
Upgrade stone's Special effect is triggered.'
Soon another notification came with the information of the upgraded black pendant.
As he saw the upgraded details of Sigmis' black pendant, he was shocked with excitement.
'Ding,
Item name:- Sigmis' black pendant
