AQUA

Upgrading



Arya's pov

Waking up early and doing my morning routine, it didn't take long till I logged back into the game after all, I had a lot of things to deal with.

When I logged in, Aqua was still asleep so I moved away from her and started sorting out my inventory. When we were clearing the thirtieth floor, we got an upgradable bag and used the parts of the beasts that we didn't need to upgrade them. Needless to say, the space was vast at this point.

Eighty percent of the stuff inside the bag were materials that needed to be processed, the amount was honestly staggering and I was a bit worried that the amount needed to process it would be, well expensive.

I brought out the other items and completed the inventory, there were 300 black clothes, which involved pants, shorts hoodies and anything else. There were 50 black rifles, 10 grey ones and two white ones. There were also different types of melee weapons ranging from black to white which was a total of 154. I honestly don't know why I would need this many weapons but I did categorize them in the bag before moving to the next thing, runes.

Unfortunately, the runes that were here were what I didn't choose to engrave or started from tier 7 so I could only leave them in the bag and so they were also placed aside, I moved the ammo left in the bag, the ones that reached tier 6 anyway to an ammo ring I got, reloading would be faster now is what it's mainly used for. With that, all that was left to handle was the materials, the egg and the race pill.

While it looked like there were a lot of rewards, I feel like the tower is mostly focused on giving materials and well experience as that's what is abundant there. 

With that in mind, I left the room after changing into a black hoodie and joggers and heading to get my materials processed.

I flew all the way there and got there in no time, after all fighting ninety-plus floors was more than enough for me to master well everything.

The person at the desk was the same person that met me last time and after conversing for a bit, I proceeded to pour the materials into the bins. It took five hours to get all the materials processed and when it came to payment, he took 500 grams of orange metal, rare ones anyway. It was also there that I found out about other classifications which were Rare, legendary, mythic and oblivion. According to him, getting rare material is already a one in a million chance, getting the rest is supposed to be practically impossible but it seems impossible isn't impossible since apparently, a quarter of my material is legendary.

After leaving I went to design an armored box and with that not taking much time I headed to the enchanter area to get the runes well set up. The armor I wanted to design was a full liquid bodysuit that's to be worn in, technically I had armor like that, but what I wanted was still different from the current design I had, I wanted it to be able to reflect, absorb, adjust to the wearer and will dissolve damage I guess, after all, our body is still normal. 

The enchanter was able to set it up but that would need a lot of money as the runes were expensive, and after paying I left there an hour later with the box completely ready and went back to my apartment.

Aqua was still off so I started to melt the metal. I was using legendary orange metal so it took a while till I got the combinations correct and with that settled, I sucked the liquid into the box and threw it into a basin of water and made the second one.

With two boxes now in the basin of water, I moved to make my armor set back, without the body hug though and it was all legendary orange. I had purple and pink metal but due to how small it was I decided to save it first, it would be used later. 

With the armor set boiling in the fire, I started making ammo for both Aqua and myself. There's no harm in having excess ammo and soon I was done. 

I removed all the armor from the water and flame and let it cool down before bringing it out, the first thing that popped up was for me to set the requirements so I put our names in what's to be worn by us and finally named the body suit and I was done.

I would honestly say that the stats were crazy but still normal considering the metal used. Everything was stored and I started to mass create the armor with rare grey metal this time and the original body suit and that was how I spent the rest of the day, i made ten thousand armor sets to be sold and made the requirement after checking the forums to see the power level, and with them stored I used up most of my stats points and some skill points before smiling at my current stats 

"The power would go even higher if I equip my actual gear."

Though I didn't do that, instead I brought out the race pill as I swallowed it, I didn't want to think it through honestly, what came next was something I didn't expect.

RACE UPGRADE INITIATING!!

WARNING! WARNING!

MOVE TO A SAFE PLACE FOR EMERGENCY EJECTION!

WARNING! WARNING!

BODY SYSTEM SHUT DOWN!

WARNING! WARNING!

RACE UPGRADE STARTED!!

Honestly, the moment I heard the first warning I had already moved to the bed and by the time I lay on it, I was already in excruciating pain but I couldn't think much of it as I was forcefully logged out.

I stepped out of the pod in annoyance as I couldn't log back in for three hours apparently so I simply left the room and took a bath before making something to eat. It was currently noon at 16:24 and since I wasn't sleepy yet I decided to browse the forum because why not before a message stunned me.

Lynn - *you're getting married in three days, get ready to move in!*

Arya - *why do I have to move in?*

Lynn - *you're getting married to AQUA! Your mum's place isn't safe enough.*

Arya - *oh. Alright. Do I need to do anything?*

Lynn - *Do you know anything about getting married?*

Arya - *no...*

Lynn - *thought as much. Just pack your stuff, you move in tomorrow.*

'Getting married huh? Whatever. I still have three months before I have to start anyway.'
