Chapter 197: Terrifying
Su Xiao had never been here, but he had some understanding of this hall.
It was a place where you could upgrade your items, but the cost of upgrading was high. Because of the price of upgrades, no one improved things for sale — everyone usually improved them for themselves.
After entering the hall, Su Xiao found himself in a hall with an area of several thousand square meters. The hall was magnificent and bright. Special machines were placed next to the walls. They were all built into the wall.
There were quite a few contractors in the hall right now. Most of them were looking at their phones and looking flustered, and their foreheads were covered in sweat.
Su Xiao walked over to an empty phone. It looked like a vending machine, which was several times larger than usual, but there were no buttons on it — the control panel was a very large monitor.
[Welcome to the equipment improvement machine №1876.]
[Checking the number of operations performed... the list of operations is empty.]
[Wait for the output of the instruction...]
[Improving equipment is a kind of unlocking the potential of a particular thing...]
----
After Su Xiao read a bunch of explanations, he had a certain idea about improving the equipment.
The so-called equipment improvements consisted of strengthening things ' strong traits.
If the weapon is upgraded, its attack power will be increased, if the shield is upgraded, its defense will be improved.
Su Xiao placed his hand on the monitor, and the rather unusual-looking vending machine reacted.
[You have 30.357 coins of Paradise, please place the equipment that you want to improve.]
Steam came out of a certain compartment of the machine, and a heavy metal tray appeared at the bottom, just below the monitor.
Su Xiao thought for a few seconds and finally put his gun in it, after which the metal tray slid back into the machine.
[Check... check completed, upgrade fee is equal to 1.200 Paradise coins.]
The corners of Su Xiao's eyes twitched.
Taking out his gun, Su Xiao placed his sword in the tray.
[Check... check completed, upgrade fee equals 3,000 Paradise coins.]
Su Xiao didn't think it was worth it, but since he had already come here, he decided that he had to see the result..
— Make improvements.
[The upgrade has been launched, please wait five minutes.]
*Boom!.. Crackle!..*
The car started up, but the sound wasn't very good.
Fortunately, five minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
*Sh-sh-sh-sh...*
Steam came out of the car, and then he saw a metal tray.
[Dragon Flash +1!]
Su Xiao raised his sword. He noticed that the blue light was slightly different. It has become deeper and richer than before.
[Dragon Flash +1 (48%)
Attack Power: 22~51 (Attack power has been improved by 2~3)]
Dragon Flash's attack power has improved slightly. Su Xiao waved his sword and found that something was wrong. This improvement definitely wasn't that simple.
Swinging his sword, Su Xiao frowned and put the dragon flash back on the metal tray.
Su Xiao confirmed the launch of the upgrade and waited for five minutes.
[Dragon Flash +2!]
Su Xiao didn't take out his sword and decided to continue improving it, because he discovered something very interesting.
[Dragon Flash +3!]
[Dragon Flash +4!]
[Dragon Flash +5... Bad luck! Dragon Flash now has a sharpener in the form of +3!]
Su Xiao coughed, but still decided to continue.
[Dragon Flash +5!]
Su Xiao decided to leave it at that. If the upgrade fails now, then all previous upgrades will be in vain, because starting with sharpening +5, each failure returned the sharpening to +0.
The metal tray jumped out of the car along with the sword. A dark blue light flashed on the dragon flash blade. The previously light blue light has now been replaced by a rich dark blue.
Su Xiao picked up dragon Flash and looked at the properties of his sword.
[Dragon Flash +5 (48%)

Su Xiao touched the dragon flash blade with his finger and immediately saw a slight cut.
The sword that was previously a white sword was now a truly powerful weapon. This sword was much better than most blue weapons.
The strongest point of this sword was its sharpness.
Su Xiao didn't need a sword with a lot of abilities. The main thing about the sword was its sharpness.
Right now, Su Xiao himself wasn't sure how sharp his sword was, but it was a question that his enemies would be able to answer.
He was glad that the dragon's flash was much stronger, but when he saw his balance, his joy immediately evaporated.
From 30.357 coins of Paradise, there are only 9.357 coins left.
The cost of the upgrades stunned Su Xiao. If the upgrade failed now, it would be considered that he had spent so many coins for nothing.
But Su Xiao wasn't going to stop there. He took out his Luck Goddess lighter.
[Check... verification completed, upgrade fee equals 900 Paradise coins.]
This lighter wasn't a weapon, so the cost of upgrading it wasn't too high.
Su Xiao started the improvement process...
Five minutes later.
[Lighter of the Goddess of Luck +1!]
Su Xiao immediately bet on the next improvement.
[Fortune Goddess Lighter +2 ... Critical failure! All improvements have been reset!]
Su Xiao was stunned. He actually failed to upgrade the lighter by +2? The instructions stated that a +2 upgrade has a 97% success rate.
But, in any case, he had to continue improving the lighter. At the moment, it took too much time for this lighter's skill to cool down.
[Lighter of the Goddess of Luck +3!]
[Lighter of the Goddess of Luck +4!]
[Lighter of the Goddess of Luck +5!]
[Lighter of the Goddess of Luck +6!]
Su Xiao lit a cigarette, and a large group of people gathered behind him.
— Brother, +6 is already a good result! If you bet on the next upgrade and fail, you will have to start upgrading that item again.
— Big brother, go on, it's been a long time since I've seen someone who was able to upgrade an item to +7.
— What a lucky guy...
Everyone was watching Su Xiao's actions. The item's properties would improve dramatically after it improved seven times and so on.
Su Xiao looked at his balance. He only had 1.257 coins left, and that would only be enough for one attempt. He also looked at the recovery items in his inventory and nodded. In the world of titans, he barely used them at all.
[Continue improving the Goddess of Luck Lighter?]
Su Xiao took a deep breath and decided to continue.
The car immediately started up, and dozens of people gathered behind Su Xiao.
Su Xiao became nervous.
Some evil people behind him started talking about how this improvement would definitely be a failure.
The long five-minute wait began. Improvements couldn't be made in the blink of an eye.
*Shhh...*
Steam gushed out of the car.
[Lighter of the Goddess of Luck +7!]
Many people behind Su Xiao sighed.
A metal tray with a green-lit cigarette lighter popped out of the car. Although her appearance hadn't changed, it felt completely different now. Su Xiao picked up the lighter and looked at its attributes.
