Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 266: Rising EXP

Xu Feng exclaimed as he retrieved the Stamina Gemstone, feeling its glamorous sight.

However, his expression quickly changed upon reading the description of the gemstone.

—

Name: Tier 1 Stamina Gemstone (Inferior Quality)

Type: Accessory Enhancement

Description: The Tier 1 Stamina Gemstone was an enhancement designed to improve a playerʼs stamina. It provides modest enhancements to stamina and energy regeneration.

Effects:

Stamina Boost: Increases maximum stamina by a small amount.

Energy Regeneration: Accelerates stamina recovery slightly.

Level Requirement: Suitable for players from Level 15 to 20.

Although the forging was a success and Xu Feng was granted some experience points upon completion, it was an inferior quality.

Hence, the effect wasnʼt that ideal, as well as the description being described as modestly improving. Not to mention, this inferior quality could only be used up to level 20.

In other words, the value of this Tier 1 Stamina Gemstone was far worse than the combined value of the materials used.

”Where did it go wrong?” Xu Feng rubbed his head, unsure of which process had gone wrong.

He didnʼt rush the processes nor did he attempt to deviate from the design procedures. Yet the outcome was an inferior quality— one that he wouldnʼt even bother giving a glance at if found in a store.

”Whatever, Iʼll just sell this to dumb rich players sometime later.” Xu Feng didnʼt brood over the matter much and stored it in his inventory.

Instead, he began watching the recording that he had paid a fee to watch the entire forging process.

Maybe he didnʼt see it because he was concentrating too hard, but using a different perspective, he might spot some of the mistakes.

Sure enough, once the video was nearly halfway through, Xu Feng noticed the sprinkling of the Mystic Dust had indeed integrated itself into the gemstone, but it didnʼt cover the entirety.

Additionally, the Astral Shardʼs energy didnʼt truly blend in with the gemstone as he could still notice a few remnants of the energy remaining.

”Hmm, seems like I need to make proper adjustments to the infusion chamber depending on each Astral Shard.” Xu Feng mumbled, realizing there were actually numerous technicalities at fault.

With the harsh reality, Xu Feng could only smile bitterly as he grabbed another Astral Shard. This time, he paid closer attention to the size and structure of the Astral Shard.

The size of the Astral Shard this time was a bit smaller than the previous one.

”I should adjust the duration and degree of the infusion chamber.” Xu Feng muttered, making some minor adjustments in the chamber to cater to the Astral Shard.

Afterward, he grabbed another Durable Gemstone and analyzed how much it required for the Mystic Dust.

Once Xu Feng made a preliminary calculation, he repeated the forging process.

Sometime later, another Tier 1 Stamina Gemstone had been successfully crafted, and Xu Feng was pleased by the Normal Quality it was given.

”Phew, at least the result is better than the previous one.” He was pleased with the result.

After all, his Mastery Level for the equipment design was still a Novice, so to succeed back-to-back was already an amazing feat.

Thus, Xu Feng spent the next few hours forging, but as expected, the failures started to appear, with many gemstones losing their glow and turning into worthless pieces of stone.

Nevertheless, the gains far surpassed the losses, given Xu Fengʼs experience points were rising high for the number of the successful forge.

In the end, the experience points gained were enough for him to level up once, becoming level 11.

Seeing his new status screen and the available attribute points, Xu Feng allocated them all to agility.

Others might be questioning if his brain was functioning well for focusing on agility, but Xu Feng would only snort at their mindset.

The number one weakness for any Cleric was their slow movement speed, resulting in them being easy prey for Assassins or other DPS classes to kill.

However, that was not the sole reason for his actions, given that he didnʼt plan on being those healers who could only sit in the back and provide some support to the team.

Instead, he wanted to be one unorthodox and annoying healer that none had ever witnessed.

ʼHeh, I can already sense a lot of curses coming to me.ʼ He inwardly sneered, stretched his arms, and stored the successful Tier 1 Stamina Gemstone in his inventory.

Overall, there were 3 superior-quality stamina Gemstones, which was considered ideal already. The quality ranks are followed by from lowest to highest: Inferior, Normal, and Superior.

Naturally, there were qualities higher than Superior, but with his current skills, he refused to think too far ahead. There was no benefit in looking up to the impossible quality for now, aside from wanting to give yourself pain.

”Ugh, I donʼt get how blacksmiths can have fun.” Xu Feng shook his head.

Although what he crafted was considered a type of forging, it was technically different. After all, he didnʼt need to have a hammer and physically hammer them down to make the shape of a weapon or armor.

All he did was use the workstation as his main tool and blend in some materials to craft a gemstone. Even so, his mistakes were numerous, and honestly, he preferred synthesis more.

”No point crying over spilled milk.” He mumbled, exiting his room and heading to the lobby.

By now, the crowd outside had long dissipated, with a few people still hanging around the lobby.

They might not be able to rent a room, but that doesnʼt mean they arenʼt allowed to be in the lobby. Not to mention, the rules stated that they must purchase something to remain in the lobby for at least 30 minutes.

His hotel had built-in restaurants and some bars in the lobby, ensuring that all their funds would be placed in his pocket.

Naturally, such an arrangement had cost him an extra fee when constructing, but it was all worth it once Xu Feng saw numerous NPCs chattering and relaxing.
