Chapter 557: The Opening of Ulduar (12)
02 "The Shadow Armor's owner has a different emblem, and they can ensure that the Shadow Armor obeys their orders. And the only way to not be taken away and used by the enemy is your own emblem. Asher shook his head, "They want to engrave the personal emblem as an identity information in the Shadow Warframe, only if it fits the pattern of this emblem, can the Shadow Warframe be mobilized and worn, don't forget that this is the pinnacle of engineering, it can recognize the identity breath." β
02020202 "Wait, wait, you two are here talking about this Shadow Armor, I don't know what it's for. Let you all pay so much attention. Artoria next to her was confused, and finally couldn't help but ask.
02020202 Asher glanced at Vivien, then picked up one of the metal gloves in the armor of the Shadow of the Earth, and handed it to Artoria, which glowed with a purple-black sheen.
02020202 "Shadow Armor. It's not equipment, it's a mythical item, so there's no difference between plate armor and leather armor, and it's a combat tool exclusive to the thief class. This kind of thing is a combination of alchemy and engineering, and it is a pinnacle skill. The only thing that survives in the history before the Scourge of the Dead is very rare in itself, and there are only a handful of thieves who can get it, and the essentia ore we are looking for is the main external material for crafting it. β
02020202 "This kind of armor can only be made by characters who have studied alchemy and engineering to the level of a master, and it is almost impossible for us adventurers to get the blueprints of this thing, because the conditions are harsh, even if there are few epic thieves who have the fruits left, this set should be the collection of the Brotherhood of Defia." β
02020202 "Combined with the situation of the Brotherhood of Defia, they shouldn't have too many such precious things, so there is basically no need to think about who the original owner of this Shadow Battle Armor is. Asher explained slowly.
02020202 "Van Cleef. Vivien cupped her forehead in a headache, "Where am I going to find his personal badge?" β
02020202 "Don't just tell me where he came from, tell me what his role is." Artoria was also completely aroused, "This is the armor of that mythical thief in history?" What effect. β
02020202 "The Shadow Armor has two modes, the first is independent combat, it can imitate a thief's combat movements and habits, as well as his skills to fight, the Shadow Armor itself is mythical, but the strength is only epic, and it needs to be charged, this function is the more chicken rib in his two modes. Asher explained.
02020202 Artoria shrugged her shoulders suddenly, and Vivien couldn't help but shake her head helplessly.
02020202 Yashu's chicken rib mode, just now it made Vivien, as the emperor of thieves, fall into a hard battle, or just a narrow victory, and Artoria also felt that huge power, so terrifying that it didn't look like an epic storage zΓ i, and directly shook him off the platform, is this still chicken ribs?
02020202 "more importantly, its second mode...... Think of it as an equipment enchantment. β
02020202 "Equipment enchantment? Artoria looked at the purple-black gloves in her hands, "You mean this is a stat-enhancing booster?" β
02020202 equipment enchantment,It belongs to a specialization in subclass enchantment,You can use guΓ² magic materials to attach a variety of effects to the equipment,Such as speed increase,Underwater breathing,Spell casting enhancement, etc.,It's a very important subclass,Artoria's whole body equipment,Even including the Sword of the Gods and the Titan Aegis have enchantment effectsγ
02020202 "No, no, I'm just saying something similar, and the Shadow Armor won't increase your strength. Asher shook his head, "Vivien, explain it to him, you should know more than I do." β
Seeing Asher say this, 02020202 Artoria also looked at herself, Vivien had no choice but to take over the conversation and continued: "The Shadow Battle Armor is a kind of equipment support exclusive to thieves, covering it on the outside of the leather armor, the combat power can be multiplied, but it itself has no attribute blessing effect. β
02020202 Vivien said this, pausing for a moment, as if organizing the language.
02020202 "The role of the Shadow Armor is to adjust the owner's attributes at any time, for example, if I am fast but my attack power is not enough, it can allocate part of my agility, or even almost all of it, to strength, so that my agility will be temporarily reduced. But the power will be raised in an instant. β
02020202 "In addition to the overall attribute adjustment, the parts of each part of the Shadow Armor can be embedded in the equipment of that part, and the part attributes can also be adjusted, such as maximizing the strength attribute in the fist and maximizing the agility in the calf, so that the other overall attributes will be weakened, but the part that is added will become extremely sharp, which is very effective for thieves who mainly rely on physical skills to fight. β
02020202 Vivien finished. After thinking about it, he seemed to have explained it, and then added: "This adjustment is very flexible, unless the user removes the Shadow Battle Armor, the effect will not disappear, and there is no cooldown time for adjusting the attributes, it can be adjusted at any time, and the effect can last for a year, or it can be just for a moment." β
02020202 Vivien said to herself, not noticing that Artoria's eyes had changed. By the time he finished speaking, Artoria was already looking at the purple-black metal glove in his hand in almost shock.
02020202 the average person might scoff at this, as it's a stat adjuster at best. It's not like those mythical equipment that really increases its attributes, and I'm sorry for its mythical level.
02020202 But Artoria, the Golden Knight, who is a god-level master, knows very well what this means.
02020202 freely adjust attributes, it seems that it is only adjusting and balancing between attributes, and in general there is no addition of even a little attribute value. But the actual effect in battle is very terrible, because the attributes can be adjusted at any time, using skilled people. It is completely possible to achieve a near-no weakness of Cheng dΓΉ.
02020202 when the speed is weaker than the opponent's, immediately adjust all the stat values to hit the agility, and immediately gain a terrifying speed comparable to the Wind Thief Emperor's shadow, and when fighting head-on, adjust a part to the strength, and the attack power can instantly lead the opponent by a large margin.
02020202 for ordinary adventurers, the Shadow Battle Armor is of little significance, because it is difficult to use, and it is easy to master the degree of attribute adjustment, but for god-level masters, it is more attractive than any high-level equipment!
02020202 "Elegy should have known that there was a shadow armor here early on, but he didn't know the specific location, so he would rather betray two big forces in a row than persevere. Asher was thoughtful.
02020202 "I think so too. Vivien nodded in agreement.
02020202 the pit was so deep and open that there were countless platforms, rooms, and secret rooms hanging in the air, and if Vivien hadn't been looking for ore, she wouldn't have opened one of the searches, and she wouldn't have found it, and the elegy would have been fruitless.
02020202 Besides, Asher had seen the elegy just now, so he shouldn't have gone down to this depth.
02020202 "Let's move on, if you can't find Van Cleef's emblem, no matter how powerful the Shadow Armor is, it's just a decoration, and I suspect that the Dark Awakening Guild didn't all enter the tunnel, they may be underground." Asher said, "Let's hurry down, collect the ore and leave." β
It is not surprising that there is no ore in the warehouse recorded in the 02020202, because it may have been taken by someone else, the syndicate thieves have occupied this place early in the morning, and Asher has no hope that he will be able to be there all, they can only follow the instructions of the location of the remaining warehouses, little by little, and as long as one warehouse is still full, Asher can make a lot of money.
02020202 the three of them continued downward, the bronze boots were still complete in their recovery and translation, and after following the instructions above, and then going deeper more than five hundred feet, Asher found an entrance on a platform near the rock wall, and after using the lockpicking technique to open the mechanism, the three of them walked directly inside.
As soon as 02020202 opened the stone door, a dim but extremely dazzling purple-gold light suddenly came into view, Yashu couldn't help blinking, and then walked quickly to the center of the stone room, looked around, and immediately laughed.
02020202 "Haha, I found it." β
Around Asher, 02020202 neatly stacked wooden chests one after another, and in some of the open lids, a dull purple-black sheen could be seen emanating from them, similar to the outer luster of the Shadow Armor, and in these chests, there were densely piled with eyeball-sized purple-black metal.
02020202 "These are all essentia ores, my God. Vivien and Artoria walked in after Ashur, and their eyes were a little shocked as they looked at the boxes that filled the room.
02020202 essentia ore, they have seen some, in the trading area of the Eternal Fortress, this kind of thing is clearly priced, a small piece can be sold for hundreds of thousands of gold coins, a group of twenty essentia ores has tens of millions, and a box of essentia ore is tens of millions of wealth.
02020202 Ashur scurried back and forth in the storeroom, checking the contents of the list and counting the inventory here.
02020202"No more, no less, eighty-two boxes." Ashur had a big smile on his face, and he couldn't stop talking about it, and he didn't have to hide anything in front of his teammates.
02020202 eighty-two boxes can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket compared to the huge amount of cobalt ore found by Dopp, but after all, this is essentia ore, eighty-two boxes is already an extremely terrifying number, if anyone can eat it, these essentia ores are worth more than a billion when converted into gold coins!
02020202 you must know that Ashur invited Nat to participate in a war, and it cost 50 million, and a super guild as big as the Blood Elf Alliance would have more than 5 billion family dollars.
02020202 And this is only one of the warehouses, converted into the calculation method of adventurers, it is less than five hundred groups of essentia ore, and there must be the number below that Asher saw at the beginning, but it is nearly 150,000 groups.
02020202 so many high-grade ores, if all of them were discounted, it would be enough to collapse the economic system of the entire world, but unfortunately no one could eat it, and Ashur didn't plan to sell it, he wanted to exchange it all for laws or items.
Before Ashur came to hunt for treasure, 02020202 brought the largest capacity of the magic pocket to store the wealth such as gold coins and gems that he might find, and now it is the same for ores.
02020202 There should be quite a few more below." Asher said as he opened the book, "Let's go look for them one by one." β
02020202 Ashur was in a very happy mood, although there were many accidents in this treasure hunt and mixed with other people, but Ashur believed that he was the one who gained the most now, at least these essentia ores, Ashur was very satisfied.
02020202" and so on. β
02020202 Asher walked to the door and was about to go down, Vivien suddenly reached out to stop him and whispered.
02020202 "What's wrong?" Asher wondered.
02020202 Vivien didn't speak, stretched out her finger to make a shushing motion, and then pointed to a platform not far outside, Asher was also immediately alert, he turned on the arcane vision to look there, and suddenly a faint silhouette appeared in the darkness, it was a person, kneeling on the platform and tinkering with something.
02020202 "The thief who attacked me." Vivien whispered. What was he doing there. β
02020202 Asher stared at the syndicate thief's movements, and after a moment, came to a conclusion.
02020202"He's in an ambush and an elegy. β
02020202 Vivien looked at Asher in disbelief.
02020202 "He's obviously setting up some kind of mechanism, I think Elegy should have taken on some mission related to the syndicate, and it should be completed here, this thief is part of the mission, and when Elegy saw him before, he would immediately run away." Asher had a slight feeling of abruptness.
02020202 "We avoid him, use invisibility potions and stealth, and go." β
02020202 Ashur doesn't want to mess with the elegy, this syndicate thief is very difficult to mess with, he can beat the first adventurer warrior of Kadolin into a serious injury and weakness in three or two strokes, even Ashur is not willing to confront this kind of thief lightly, let the elegy have a headache
The three of them quietly avoided the syndicate thief, and then continued their way down, along stairs and drawbridges, towards the location of the warehouses at the coordinates of the past.
02020202 during this period, Asher found two more warehouses that still contained ore, these two warehouses were not as rich as the previous one, but they still made Asher excited, and he bought nearly a hundred groups of essrinsic ores, and at this time, Asher also realized how huge this pit was.
02020202 he went so deep into the ground, he didn't see the bottom, and there were even more ores in the warehouse below, and what was in Ashur's hands was nothing compared to those.
02020202 Asher searched for the location of the warehouse, keeping an eye out for clues as to the original purpose of their tripβsome secrets of the Brotherhood of Defia, or some serendipitous discovery.
02020202 everything that Asher had harvested so far was discovered by accident, such as the feathers of the Phoenix God that he didn't know how to use, as well as obsidian mines and essentia ores, you know, his original purpose was to find the treasures of the Brotherhood of Defia, and now Asher is not sure if these ores are treasures.
02020202 Maybe they've buried something else here, after all, Vivien has found a very precious Shadow Armor, even if it's not usable yet.
02020202 But what is certain is that this pit must have sealed countless ancient secrets, and it was matched by even more important treasures, and Asher had already recorded all the discoveries.
02020202β¦β¦
02020202 Storm Crags, Ulduar.
02020202 bustling and noisy camp of adventurers became even more noisy at this time, and many adventurers curiously passed through the crowd and went out of their tents, not far from the camp. Surrounded by a large group of adventurers with standard equipment, a huge teleportation array was established on it.
02020202 These are all people from the War Guild Guild.
02020202 flickering light, teams of adventurers walked out of the teleportation array, and in front of the team, there were many god-level masters of the War Guild Guild Guild that adventurers were familiar with, such as Levi and Tels, all of them were in a hurry, leading their respective teams out of the teleportation array. Immediately go to the gates of Ulduar.
02020202 teleportation array was still flickering, and adventurers were constantly pouring out, and those at the front had already entered Ulduar, making many adventurers around them envious.
02020202 such a powerful guild will definitely have an advantage in the opening of the wasteland. Directly gather the god-level masters in the guild who are thunderous and bring tens of thousands of elite masters. Then open a large teleportation array. It's hard to think of results in this way.
02020202 "The War Guild is also about to start opening up the wasteland, it seems that these large forces, except for the Tower of Twilight and the Blood Elf Alliance, have not sent anyone to join them, right?" β
02020202 "Don't you know what to say, the Blood Elf Alliance has already come to the people, the people of the Silver Angel Guild." The commander of the Dark Awakening Guild just went in not long ago, and I watched here all morning, but the people from the Tower of Dusk didn't come. β
02020202 "These big guilds can still open up wasteland while fighting. It's really strong. β
02020202 many adventurers were amazed, knowing that the war between the three giants of the Tower of Dusk, the War Guild and the Blood Elf Alliance was still in full swing, and these three forces plus their allies nearly more than eight million people were fighting all over the world, and they still had the ability to open up the wasteland.
02020202 "Speaking of which, it's the strangest thing that no one came to the Tower of Dusk, didn't they use the nickname to kill the little prince before, and they didn't stop making trouble every day, why did it stop now." β
02020202 "Yes, I feel that they have so many epic masters, and they should be the most advantageous." β
02020202 fact, it's not just these ordinary adventurers who wonder why Ashur and the Tower of Dusk don't come to open up the wasteland, there are also many presidents and heads of large guilds, and they also pay more attention to this, this kind of grand event The Tower of Dusk is generally not missed, but they have never seen Ashur bring people, which makes them very uneasy.
020202γ 02γ
02020202 these large guilds, even many of them have been accustomed to clearing the wasteland for a period of time without success, and then watching the Tower of Dusk easily take down the first kill, and then sending out strategies and images after a period of time, they will learn to fight again, and it is purely self-inflicted guilt to fight with the Tower of Dusk.
02020202 And this time Asher didn't bring anyone, which made them very uncomfortable.
