Refining a weapon was tempting but what he wanted to use right now was the [Upgrade] option. This option combines the essence of all the weapons placed for upgrading to create a higher-rank weapon. Naturally, there is a chance of a failure and in that case, all the weapons placed for the upgrade disintegrates. The higher the rank of the weapons placed for upgrade the lower the rate of success. Simon understood that there is no benefit without risk, if he wanted to upgrade a higher rank weapon, then he has to take the risk of failure associated with it.

The way the [Upgrade] option worked was very simple, one just needs to place the weapons they wanted to upgrade in the slots and just press on the upgrade. once the upgrade starts, one cannot stop the process nor can they take out the weapons placed for upgrading. Hence one needs to be very careful before choosing the weapons they want to upgrade.

Simon took out four [D] rank weapons from his inventory and placed it for the upgrade, a maximum of four weapons can be placed at once and initiated the upgrade. As soon as the upgrade started a piercing white halo erupted out and blotted the screen. the white light settled after a while and the result was a success, a [C] tier short spear called white Fang was created.

The spear was entirely white, the shaft had a beautiful pattern, and the tip of the spear, a sharp and piercing glint flowed on its remarkable blade. Furthermore, like a row of teeth, tiny fangs lined up the blade giving it quite a threatening look. Simon brandished the White Fang for a while and felt that the spear was quite good. It not only provided him with a huge boost in stats but also new repertoire of skills.

However, Simon was not content with a [C] tier weapon. He put another four weapons for the upgrade and after the white halo settled, the result was another success. He immediately placed the next batch of weapons and repeated the process dozens of times.

(Success, Success, Failure, Success, Success, Success, Success, Success, Failure, Success, Success, Success, Success, Success, Failure…)

Simon noticed that five out of six times the upgrade would be a success and after upgrading for a while, he was left with sixty [C] rank weapons. If he took this many [C] rank weapons for auction, Simon imagined that he would amass a large amount of DP. Shaking the idea out of his head, he placed another batch of [C] rank weapons for the upgrade. He cannot auction all these items as he needed them to get himself a high-rank weapon. The upgrade took a while and when the white halo settled, with a bang smoke started coming out. this phenomenon was not new to him and he knew that the result was a failure, and all the weapons placed were disintegrated.

Looking at this scene made his heart ache a little. But he persisted on and quickly placed another four of them for the upgrade. The result was another failure, he placed another four and repeated the process.

After continuous experimentation, Simon learned that there was one-third of a chance for a [B] rank weapon to be created out of [C] rank weapons. The cycle of success and failure continued and after upgrading for a while, he was left with twenty [B] rank weapons. Each of these weapons was quite powerful and if refined further using the amegdite crystals, their strength would no doubt increase manifold. However, it was still not the end of the upgrade process.

Simon's eyes were now focused as he prepared for the next round of upgrades

With his heart rapidly pounding Simon placed four [B] rank weapons and initiated the upgrade. Each of these [B] tier items if placed for auction, would make even a Demon Duke frantically bid for them not to mention that at present Simon had twenty of those at hand. As the rank of the items placed for upgrade increases, the time it takes for the upgrade to complete also increases. Seconds ticked away and time stopped into a crawl, with bated breath, Simon awaited the result. After the white halo settled, BANG... a loud sound erupted and all the weapons disintegrated; the result a failure.

Four [B] rank weapons disappeared into dust just like that. He felt a sharp twinge of pain looking at this scene, the weapons if auctioned would fetch more than two million DP each. Simon sighed inwardly as he forced himself to place another batch of weapons and initiated the upgrade. This time his eyes were focused intensely as if trying to see the inner mechanisms of the upgrade. The upgrade went on for a while and after what felt like eons, with a loud bang another four weapons disintegrated into dust...

With bloodshot eyes he witnessed another batch of weapons turn into dust. Out of the initial twenty [B] rank weapons, eight of them disappeared just like that. Leaving aside the amount of DP they could have fetched him, he truly felt that the [Upgrade] was a money-burning machine.. But he couldn't afford to stop here now that he started the process he had to see the end with his own eyes.
