Survival on the Internet: A Bizarre Start at Sea

Option 2: [Structural Optimization] - Optimize the internal energy structure of the polishing stone to improve its stability and efficiency, resulting in better enhancement effects.

Option 3: [Specialty Granting] - Randomly grants an additional specialty to the polishing stone, such as "Sharpness Enhancement" or "Armor Penetration Enhancement". When using the polishing stone to enhance the stone, additional effects are added.

Select [Energy Infusion].

Su Zhisu made a decision.

"Perfect timing to try out the newly unlocked 'Feature Lock' feature."

With a slight thought, he activated the [Characteristic Lock] unlocked by the level 6 Mysterious Alchemy.

I locked the "Attribute Imbuement" attribute, and then used Alchemy Transformation again to select this attribute.

After this incident, Su Zhisu could clearly feel that he could no longer use alchemical transformation on the [Green Polishing Stone].

A strange power began to surge wildly into the polishing stone.

The emerald green stone surface shone with a dazzling light, and a faint "click" sound came from inside.

Su Zhisu was completely focused, meticulously controlling the input of energy to avoid overload.

Ten seconds later, the transformation was complete.

As the light faded, the polishing stone on the workbench had changed its appearance.

The original emerald green turned into a deep blue, and starlight seemed to flow inside, radiating powerful energy fluctuations.

Refined Polishing Stone

[Quality]: Excellent Blue

[Information]: A polishing stone enhanced through alchemy, containing pure special energy. It can be used to repair and strengthen equipment with significant effects. When used on green (excellent) quality equipment, it can upgrade the equipment quality to blue (superior) and add the additional effect "Sharpness Enhancement".

"It's a success!"

A look of joy flashed in Su Zhisu's eyes.

"The quality has been upgraded from green (excellent) to blue (superior), the enhancement range has been increased, and an additional 'Sharpness Enhancement' effect has been added."

"Perfect for upgrading [Scimitar Towards the Storm]."

He took out his long-time companion scimitar and placed it on the workbench along with the polishing stone.

"Master, I need to borrow your alchemy workbench and small alchemy furnace."

"It will work!"

Master Maurice stepped aside, his eyes filled with curiosity.

"I'm also very interested to see what kind of effect your blue polished stone, after being transformed by alchemy, can produce."

Su Zhisu lit the furnace and adjusted the flame temperature.

He placed the refined polishing stone in a specially made grinding dish, added several auxiliary solvents, and began to grind slowly.

A mysterious force seeps into the grinding process, guiding the pure and special energy within the polishing stone to be slowly released.

Next, he picked up the [Scimitar Towards the Storm] and held it above the furnace flames to preheat it.

The blade gradually turned a dark red.

Su Zhisu seized the opportunity and evenly applied the finely ground, deep blue polishing liquid to the blade.

"Sizzle—"

White smoke rose.

The moment the polishing fluid comes into contact with the blade, a strong alchemical reaction occurs.

Su Zhixu gripped the hilt of the knife tightly, and a strange power surged into his arm, stabilizing the structure of the blade while guiding the energy of the whetstone to seep into every inch of the blade.

The flame patterns on the blade suddenly lit up!

The flame of the vigilant heart ignites spontaneously, merging and resonating with the special energy of the polished stone.

The entire blade began to tremble slightly, emitting a low hum.

[Network Notification]: Equipment [Scimitar Towards the Storm (Green Excellent)] has been detected undergoing enhancement... Material matching is extremely high... Enhancement in progress...

Time passed second by second.

The tremors of the blade gradually subsided.

The flame patterns were subdued, the color of the blade became deeper, and the edge gleamed with a cold light.

[Network Notification]: Enhancement successful! The quality of [Scimitar Towards the Storm] has been upgraded to Blue Excellent.

A scimitar pointing towards the storm.

[Quality]: Excellent Blue

[Bonus 1]: Towards the Storm: Once every 24 hours, when health reaches zero, lock health at 1%.

[Additional 3]: Storm's Echo: When the "Towards the Storm" effect is triggered or actively activated, greatly increases attack speed and movement speed for a short period. After the duration ends, durability is reduced.

[Additional 4]: Sharpness Enhancement - Blade Wind: Increases the sharpness of the blade. When attacking, it consumes Strange Power to unleash an arc-shaped air blade with a cutting effect. The range is medium. The arc-shaped air blade can be additionally enhanced.

[Information]: This sword, having survived countless storms alongside its former master, has weathered countless trials and tribulations. Every nick tells a story, every rust mark a piece of history. Now, having been enhanced, both its quality and power have been improved.

"It's blue and excellent, and it also has the ranged attack effect of [Sharpness Enhancement - Blade Wind]."

Su Zhisu stroked the blade with satisfaction.

"Great, a very useful upgrade."

"Congratulations!"

Master Morris exclaimed in praise.

"Your alchemical transformation ability, combined with equipment enhancement, is practically a divine skill tailor-made for alchemists!"

"You flatter me, Master."

Su Zhisu sheathed his curved sword.

"This time, we are very grateful to the master for providing the materials and venue."

"It was just a small favor."

Master Morris waved his hand.

"You've helped me a lot, this is just what I should do in return."

"By the way, what are your plans for the future?"

"I am preparing to leave Hydeland for a while and return to Atlantis."

Su Zhisu said.

"There are still some things that need to be taken care of over there."

"Furthermore, I need to improve my strength as soon as possible."

"Something big is likely to happen at the end of next month, so we need to prepare in advance..."

Master Maurice's expression turned solemn.

"event……?"

"Is it... world merging?"

Su Zhisu nodded.

"Does the master also know about this?"

"I've only vaguely heard some ancient records and prophecies circulating."

Master Maurice's expression turned serious.

"The barriers between different worlds will become weaker, and may even partially overlap..."

"Conflicts in rules, dramatic changes in the environment, and countless unknown threats will emerge as a result."

"But the specific timing, scale, and form... are unknown."

"At the end of next month..."

He looked at Su Zhisu with a searching look in his eyes.

"You seem very sure?"

Su Zhisu remained silent for a few seconds.

This matter has far-reaching implications, involving the entire network, players, and even his own secrets.

"I obtained a fairly accurate early warning through some special channels."

"It will happen at the end of next month, and the scale should be quite large, at least impacting cities like Hydeland."

"Preparation must be made in advance."

Master Maurice took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.

"I see."

"This is indeed not something I can decide."

"You should go to see Her Majesty immediately and give her a detailed report."

"Your Majesty must know about this, the sooner the better."

"That's exactly what I was thinking too."

Su Zhisu nodded.

"Then please inform him for me, Master."

"I'll go right away."

Master Morris hurriedly left the laboratory.
