The 5th Floor's Mystery and the +7 Factory Gloves
In the world of the tower where bringing a gun makes you useless, people who have been forcibly turned into primitives have always been thirsty for powerful weapons. Whether the sword pierces the enemy's skin or not, whether the spear pulls out the eyeballs or not, those things that save or take lives is the tower. To such people, the opportunity to become strong with little money is too precious. Of course, only for those with good luck.
After many people visited the 5th floor enhancement shop, they left reviews. Among them, the most talked-about post was the enhancement efficiency test. The content was a video uploaded directly to YouTube.
Hello. I'm the YouTuber specializing in sword and shield, Last One Sword.
In this video, I enhanced the maraging steel longsword, 18Ni300, which hunters love the most.
To reach +5 enhancement, I visited the 5th floor with 10 swords.
Result: 8 swords broke, and I barely attached the 9th one.
Detailed attempt counts and results are attached in the table at the end of the video.
So, is this +5 enhancement really meaningful or just a scam? Let's test it now.
First, the wooden log that most people use when practicing swordsmanship.
Let's try it with a 0-enhanced longsword first.
As expected, thanks to the maraging steel used in aerospace technology, it easily splits the wood.
Now, let's test the +5 enhanced longsword.
The feel is completely different. With the 0-enhanced longsword, it split along the wood grain, but this +5 enhanced longsword feels like it slices through tofu smoothly.
Let's compare the cross-sections of the wood.
The 0-enhanced longsword feels like it smashes the wood along the grain, while the +5 enhanced longsword literally slices through it.
Next, the plywood used in testing the destructive power of swordsmen.
This is a 10-layer alloy board, and we measure destructive power by how far it can cut.
First, let's try with a 0-enhanced longsword.
Since I usually use sword and shield, I'll cut with one hand.
Result: It destroyed 7 layers.
Now, let's try with a +5 enhanced longsword.
Look at that? It destroyed all 10 layers and cut cleanly.
The difference in power between the 0-enhanced longsword with its wavy blade pattern and the +5 enhanced longsword.
Now, let's compare it with a 170 million won luxury longsword.
As you all know, this model has special treatment on the edge that shreds wounds, so you must never touch the edge with your hands.
The severed fingers can't be sewn back on either.
The wood is, of course, sliced too smoothly.
Look at this cross-section. It's cut so deeply that healing is impossible.
And the plywood, it got stuck at the 9th layer.
Yes, if I swing with both hands, of course I'd cut all 10, but since I originally use sword and shield, I tested it close to real combat.
The cross-section is much dirtier. As expected, the special treatment makes a difference.
We've compared the 500 million won budget longsword enhanced with enchantment and the 170 million won luxury longsword.
Personally, I think the +5 budget longsword can replace the luxury one.
However, depending on luck, buying the luxury one might be cheaper.

After many people visited the 5th floor enhancement shop, they left reviews. Among them, the most talked-about post was the enhancement efficiency test. The content was a video uploaded directly to YouTube.
Is this the +7 enhanced factory gloves that exists only on Earth right now?
Alex was currently having a private conversation with a top-tier hunter in Korea.
Kim Bada's plan to make clean money. For him, he made +7 enhanced factory gloves by bursting dozens of factory gloves.
The 5th floor enhancement shop was taking 20% of the enhancement cost as fee, and since business was good, enhancement materials were pouring in like crazy.
So, making high-enhancement items was not difficult at all.
Originally, gloves are part of armor. However, putting on gloves reduces the chance of dropping the weapon, which contributes to power increase. Therefore, utilizing that part, by enchanting with Special Enhancement, it is possible to make gloves that increase attack power.
Alex was playing the role of a newbie who accidentally got good enhancement, and was selling +7 factory gloves to top-tier hunters in Korea.
"Here is the contract. Please read it carefully and sign it."
The contract written by the other man.
There was no problem with the content.
Alex signed the contract and immediately received 2 billion won in deposit.
He would get a tax bomb later, but for now, he got cash he could use immediately.
"I wish you growth and safety."
After the warm transaction, Alex visited a car dealership.
Because Kim Bada had commanded him to bring a car, saying that in Seoul, it's easier to take a car than a plane.
"Welcome, customer! What car are you here to see?"
When he entered the foreign car dealership, the dealer greeted Alex with a very bright smile.
Alex gave off an aura that looked rich, like a rich person, and a handsome blonde Caucasian male with an athletic build that could sell his face as a YouTuber, influencer, model, or movie star.
The dealer sensed a big deal.
Alex said to him,
"Are there any cars available for immediate delivery?"
"It's difficult to do immediate delivery, customer. If you want to order options."
"Options can be compromised as much as possible."
"If so, I'll investigate the stock of all stores nationwide right now."
The dealer checked the computer and looked at the stock of all stores nationwide.
It was a struggle to sell even slightly expensive cars.
He pulled out the stock list and brought it to Alex.
"This model is currently in Busan, so if we start express delivery, you'll be able to receive it late today. This model is in Daejeon, so you'll be able to receive it in the afternoon."
Alex chose the model in Daejeon.
And he started writing the contract.
"Cash, lump sum."
In the dealer's perspective, tying in financial products would be more profitable.
But he thought it would be better not to hassle this tough, hardboiled man.
In the end, Alex cleared all the desired conditions.
Someone who likes cars might evaluate it as crazy.
Choosing such an expensive car without any hesitation or planning, buying it with cash and immediate delivery.
"He's really from another world."
But to the dealer, he looked different.
First of all, too handsome blonde handsome man with a sturdy build.
This man, shopping for cars like this was natural.
"Mother. I brought the car."
Finally, Alex received the car and went to confirm with Kim Bada.
The car was a large SUV worth 140 million won.
A sleek black body that was attractive.
"Yeah. Finally, the car is here. Then go buy some samgyeopsal."
The main purpose was to run errands at the mart.
