Novel Bin Chapter 168 Success?
[Gauntlets]
-Grade: Grey
-Quality: Outstanding
-Skill: None
"Damn, I\'ve wasted one set of materials. And you have got to be fucking kidding me. What the hell is outstanding? What will I do with an outstanding trash item? \'\' While cursing, Raydon threw the gauntlets to the ground.
Although he processed the item with top-notch craftsmanship on his first attempt, something obviously went wrong, and by bad luck, the desired skill was not processed into the item. However, the fact that his first attempt at craftsmanship was of outstanding quality was inconceivable and demonstrated his talent for craftsmanship.
*Ding*
[Congratulations, you have crafted an item of outstanding quality.]
[Assign a name to the item.]
The system message showed up in front of Raydon as he was lamenting his lost materials.
"Fuck, make it your mother\'s last name. Do you really think I\'ll name this garbage? \'\' The system message doubled Raydon\'s already frayed nerves.
*Ding*
[Item\'s name updated.]
[Your Mother\'s Last Name]
-Grade: Grey
-Quality: Outstanding
-Skill: None
When the system message came up again, Raydon froze.
\'\'You have got to be fucking kidding me, right? Change the name. Just don\'t give it a name. With such a name, how am I supposed to sell this? \'\'
Once more furious, Raydon requested that the item\'s name be changed through the system, but received no response.
The fact that item holders have a need for trash items means they may still purchase this item. Additionally, being of outstanding quality would imply that this item was much more durable than a typical trash item and that it could have been sold for a much higher price than usual. However, because of the item\'s name, it may now be difficult to find a buyer.
He attempted unsuccessfully for a few more minutes to restore the item\'s name.
Raydon said with a sigh, "My luck must be awful today."
\'\'Well, at least I gained the required experience, and I\'m confident that the next item I create will be successful,\'\' Raydon murmured and then motivated himself again. It had taken him approximately 10 hours to craft this item, but now that he was more familiar with all the procedures, he could reduce this time.
\'\'Well, the issue must stem from the materials of other elements that I added after processing the black metal. I suppose I should also reconsider the materials I included in the crafting formation. \'\' Raydon reexamined the notes in his hand, pondered, and retrieved a new piece of black iron before resuming his efforts.
After some time, the black metal components of the gauntlet were once more positioned in front of Raydon.
\'\'This time, the process took significantly less time than before. \'\' After creating the item once, Raydon was able to complete the process more quickly through sleight of hand.
This time, Raydon moved on to phase 2 and began combining these metal pieces with other substances to create a fully wearable gauntlet. This time, he paid more attention to the procedure and followed the handwritten notes precisely, without adding his own interpretation to the artwork he created.
A few more hours passed, and Raydon regarded the finished product with contentment.
"Well, this time it appears to be better. At least it doesn\'t look as flashy as it did before. \'\'
Raydon remarked as he examined the gauntlets in front of him, noting that they were less impressive in appearance than those he had previously crafted.
"All right, let\'s advance to the next level." After grabbing the gauntlets, he returned to the center of his dimensional storage, where he grabbed another blueprint and turned on the crafting formation.
This time, he carefully considered his placement of the materials on the lower right end of the star and made sure that every last element was balanced.
"I really do hope this time it will be a success."
\'\'Fuck. Not now. \'\' But as soon as he realized that his body was beginning to burn once more from the intense anticipation he was experiencing, he immediately made himself relax.
Soon after he was able to calm himself down, Raydon began pouring black blood onto the star\'s upper end using the glass bottle he was holding.
The same as the previous time, black blood began to evenly and slowly spread from the top end of the star to the other four ends. As soon as it touched the objects, it began to liquefy them and slowly disintegrate each one. Afterward, this liquid gathered in the center of the star formation and solidified, taking the shape of a pair of gauntlets.
\'\'Hm? The appearance is simpler this time. \'\'
Raydon noticed the inferior quality of the new gauntlet compared to the other one. The low quality was apparent even in the black metal stamps that adorned it.
Raydon assumed this attempt had also failed and examined the gauntlet.
[Gauntlets]
-Grade: Green
-Quality: Good
-Skill: Rusty Chain
When activated, the user\'s aura morphs into a rusty chain of death that, if touched by an opponent, curses them and severely restricts their movement.
Durability and range vary based on the user\'s stamina stat.
The effect of the curse varies based on the user\'s charisma stat.
-Mana cost: 30
-Duration: 5 minutes.
-Cooldown: 1 minute.
\'\'Well, it seems... Normal? \'\' Raydon pondered as he observed the skill.
It appeared to be a control-type skill, and it was obvious that he had higher expectations for this item set.
\'\'Wait. It has a 5-minute duration. So, am I able to use this chain actively for five minutes? In other words, can I use it to attack or even take the place of the hook skill I always use? \'\'
Raydon contemplated the item for a moment before deciding to wear it, bind it, and test the effectiveness of the skill himself. If it was as effective as the hook skill he always used, it was time for him to switch his control-type skill.
Although the hook skill had stamina support, Raydon saw that the skeleton soldiers he had encountered in Golden Skeleton\'s inheritance could tear the rope without resorting to weapons. Thus, he was already thinking about switching out the hook skill for a more versatile control-type skill.
