When he returned to the game and looked at his friends list, Clutch King and Snow Chaser were not online yet. It seemed that he was the first to go online.

Li Yi opened his attribute panel.

There was not a big change. If he wanted to have a big change, his current level must be higher. When he reaches the second transition, he should be able to have some bigger changes.

Sure enough, the most important thing right now was to increase his level. Only after his level increases would there be a significant change. His current level was only a few levels higher than before. If he wanted to have too many changes… Of course, it was impossible.

Li Yi thought of the mysterious gift bag he had obtained from the dungeon. Now that he had the time, he quickly opened it to take a look. 

A stone suddenly appeared in front of him.

“Strengthening Stone.”

Looking at the stone in his hand, Li Yi was a little surprised. This was a stone used to strengthen equipment. Normally, it could only be obtained after level 25.

He did not expect that he would have already obtained it before level 25.

This was quite a surprise to Li Yi. However, after thinking about it carefully, there was nothing to be surprised about. Due to his talent, his luck was higher than others. This resulted in him obtaining better equipment and tools compared to others. Therefore, it made sense for him to obtain a Strengthening Stone.

Li Yi carefully examined the Strengthening Stone in his hand.

[Strengthening Stone Level 5]

[Effect: Can strengthen or increase equipment before level 30 or equipment without level requirements.]

Seeing this description, Li Yi’s eyes lit up.

His own magic weapon just so happened to have no level requirements. This item could increase his equipment level, and it might even increase the strength of his weapon.

With this thought in mind, Li Yi left the West Wind Knight Faction and headed towards Emperor City.

If he wanted to use strengthening stones, he would have to go to the city to find an NPC like a blacksmith to learn some life skills. These skills could only be used to forge equipment and create weapons. There were no requirements for players, but there was a probability mechanism for forging and manufacturing.

If one did not have a related talent, it would be very easy to fail. Even if one succeeded, the quality would not be very high.

The materials consumed would also be much more than the materials consumed by people with talents. Hence, under normal circumstances, everyone would look for players with related talents to purchase or commission weapons from.

Such finished products were relatively higher in expenses, of course.

However, there were some exceptions.

For example, Strengthening Stones.

Strengthening Stones could increase the level of equipment.

The increase in level was fixed. There would be no difference in quality. Hence, no matter who did it, there would be no difference.

After all, the magic sword was too powerful for current players and NPCs to forge in.

If someone knew that Li Yi had the magic sword, they would definitely come back to snatch it.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Li Yi had to do it himself.

After arriving at the blacksmith shop, Li Yi asked the owner of the blacksmith shop to learn forging skills.

The owner of the blacksmith shop recognized Li Yi at a glance and immediately respectfully taught the forging skills to Li Yi for free.

Li Yi once again felt the benefits of the Heavy Armored Dragon Knight.

Although it was sometimes troublesome to exchange a few pleasantries when he saw NPCs, the benefits were very generous. For example, many places did not cost money, and many places always welcomed him respectfully.

This also fully explained the importance of the Heavy Armored Dragon Knights. They were the strongest military branch, the trump card of this country.

After Li Yi learned the skill, he even bought a set of forging equipment.

The boss said that he did not want Li Yi’s money, which made Li Yi feel a little embarrassed.

Not only had he bought the skill for free, but he also gained the equipment for free. 

In the end, under Li Yi’s repeated requests, the boss of the blacksmith shop had no choice but to accept Li Yi’s money. After that, Li Yi made his way out.

Little Merchant was not online yet. It was too early.

It was around 8 in the morning. Many people had not woken up yet, and there were not many players on the streets.

When the blacksmith shop owner brought the equipment to Li Yi’s shop, he was shocked by the magnificence of the shop in front of him.

“Is this the most expensive shop in the entire city? As expected, only the honorable Heavy Armored Dragon Knight has the qualifications to own such a shop.”

“Thank you, you flatter me. I was just lucky to have gotten this shop.”

Right now, Li Yi only wanted to start forging as soon as possible. After the boss placed the equipment on the second floor, Li Yi politely sent him off.

Slowly, the boss in the distance would occasionally turn his head and wave at Li Yi. Li Yi could only stand in front of the door and watch.

After sending the boss off with great difficulty, Li Yi let out a long breath and was about to go back and start forging. At this time, a player saw Li Yi and wanted to take a photo with him.

Li Yi could not refuse and could only obediently take a photo with that player. After turning on the photo function, the two of them took a photo together.

Li Yi was afraid that someone else would come, so he immediately closed the shop door.

Sigh, this is the trouble of being a celebrity..
