Chapter 557: The Opening of Ulduar (12)

"The Shadow Armor's owners have different insignia, 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." ”

"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.

Asher glanced at Vivien, then picked up a metal glove from the Shadow Armor and handed it to Artoria.

"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. It only existed in the history before the Scourge of the Dead, and it was very rare in itself, and there were only a handful of thieves who could get it, and the essentia ore we were looking for was the main external material to make it. ”

"This kind of armor can only be made by characters who have studied both 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 remaining epic thieves who have achieved it, this set should be the collection of the Brotherhood of Defia."

"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 War Armor is." Asher explained slowly.

"Van Cleef." Vivien cupped her forehead in a headache, "Where can I find his personal badge?" ”

"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. ”

"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.

Artoria shrugged her shoulders suddenly, and Vivien couldn't help but shake her head helplessly.

The chicken rib mode that Ashur said just now made Vivien, as the emperor of thieves, fall into a bitter battle, or was it just a narrow victory, and Artoria also felt that huge power, so terrifying that it didn't look like an epic existence, and directly shook him off the platform, is this still chicken ribs?

"More importantly, it's the second mode...... Think of it as an equipment enchantment. ”

"Equipment enchantment?" Artoria looked at the purple-black gloves on her hands, "You mean this is a stat-enhancing booster?" ”

Equipment enchantment,It belongs to a specialization in subclass enchantment,You can attach a variety of effects to equipment through magic materials,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 effects.。

"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." ”

Seeing Ashur say this, 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. ”

At this point, Vivien paused, as if organizing the language.

"The role of the Shadow Armor is to adjust the wielder's attributes at any time, for example, if I am fast, but the attack power is not enough, it can allocate a 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. ”

"In addition to the overall attribute adjustment, the parts of each part of the Shadow Warframe, by embedding the equipment in that part, can also adjust the part attributes, such as maximizing the strength attribute on the fist, and maximizing the agility on the calf, so that the other overall attributes will be weakened, but the bonus part will become extremely sharp, which is very effective for thieves who mainly rely on physical skills to fight."

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." ”

Vivien said to herself, unaware of the change in Artoria's eyes. By the time he finished speaking, Artoria was already looking at the purple-black metal glove in his hand in almost shock.

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.

But Artoria, the Golden Knight, who is a god-level master, knows very well what this means.

Freely adjusting attributes, it seems that it is only adjusting and balancing between attributes, and there is no attribute value added to it in general. But the actual effect in battle is very terrible, because the attributes can be adjusted at any time, using skilled people. This is possible to a point where there are almost no weaknesses.

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 King's shadow, and when fighting people head-on, adjust a part of the strength to instantly lead the opponent's attack power.

For the average adventurer, 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!

"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 major forces in a row than persevere." Ashur was thoughtful.

"That's what I thought, too." Vivien nodded in agreement.

The pit was so deep and open that there were countless platforms, rooms, and secret rooms hanging in the air, and Vivien wouldn't have found this if she hadn't opened one of them if she hadn't wanted to find ore, and the elegy would have been fruitless.

Moreover, Asher had seen the elegy just now, and he probably hadn't gone down to this depth yet.

"Let's move on, if you can't find Van Cleef's emblem, no matter how powerful the Shadow Armor is, it's just an ornament, and I suspect that the Dark Awakening Guild hasn't all entered that tunnel, they may be underground." Asher said, "Let's hurry down, collect the ore and leave." ”

It is not surprising that there is no ore in the recorded warehouse, 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 all, they can only follow the instructions of the location of the remaining warehouses, little by little, as long as one warehouse is still full, Asher can make a lot of money.

The three of them continued downward, the bronze boots were still complete in their recovery and translation, and after following the instructions above, and after going deeper than five hundred feet down, Ashur 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 straight inside.

As soon as the stone door was opened, a dim but extremely dazzling purple-gold light suddenly came into view, and Ashur couldn't help blinking, and then walked quickly to the center of the stone room, looked around, and immediately laughed.

"Haha, I found it."

Around Asher, wooden chests were neatly stacked 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.

"These are all essentia ores, my God." Vivien and Artoria walked in after Ashur, their eyes a little shocked as they looked at the boxes that filled the room.

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.

Asher scurried back and forth in the storeroom, checking the list and counting the inventory.

"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.

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 one billion when converted into gold coins!

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 500 million family funds.

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 one below, the number that Ya Xiu saw at the beginning, but it is nearly 150,000 groups.

So many high-grade ores, if all of them are discounted, it is enough to collapse the economic system of the entire world, but unfortunately no one can eat it, and Asher does not plan to sell it, he wants to exchange it all for laws or items.

Before Ashur came to hunt for treasure, he brought the largest magic pocket to store the wealth such as gold coins and gems that he might find, and now it is the same for ores.

"There should be quite a few more down there." Asher said as he opened the book, "Let's go look for them one by one." ”

Ashur was in a very happy mood, although there were many accidents in this treasure hunt, and there were many mixes 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.

"Wait."

Asher walked to the door and was about to go down when Vivien suddenly reached out and stopped him and whispered.

"What's wrong?" Asher wondered.

Vivien didn't speak, stretched out her finger to make a booing 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 one knee on the platform and tinkering with something.

"The thief who sneaked up on me." Vivien whispered. "What is he doing there?"

Asher stared at the syndicate thief's movements, and after a moment, came to a conclusion.

"He's in ambush and elegy."

Vivien looked at Asher in disbelief.

"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 flee immediately." Ashur had a sudden feeling.

"Let's avoid him, use invisibility potions and stealth, go."

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 easily confront this kind of thief, 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.

During this period, Ashur found two more warehouses that still contained ores, both of which were not as rich as the previous ones, but they still made Ashur excited, and he bought nearly a hundred sets of essentia ores, and at this time, Ashur also realized how huge this pit was.

He had gone so deep into the ground that he had not seen the bottom, and there was an even greater amount of ore in the warehouse below, and what was in Ashur's hands was nothing compared to those.

Asher searched for the location of the warehouse, keeping an eye out for clues as to the original purpose of their tripβ€”some secrets of the Defia Brotherhood, or some serendipitous discovery.

Everything that Asher had harvested so far had been accidental discoveries, such as the phoenix god's feathers that he didn't know how to use, as well as obsidian ore and essentia ores, you know, his original purpose was to find the treasures of the Brotherhood of Defia, and now Ashur is not sure if these ores are treasures.

Maybe they buried something else here, after all, Vivien had found a very precious Shadow Armor, though it wasn't ready to use it yet.

But what is certain is that this pit must have sealed countless ancient secrets, and to match it was an even more important treasure, and Asher had recorded all the discoveries.

……

Storm Crags, Ulduar.

The bustling and noisy camp of adventurers became even noisier 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.

These are all people from the War Guild Guild.

In the 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 whom were in a hurry and led their respective teams out of the teleportation array. Immediately go to the gates of Ulduar.

The 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 look envious.

This kind of 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.

"The War Guild is also about to start opening up the wasteland, it seems that these large forces, except for the Tower of Dusk and the Blood Elf Alliance, which are hot, have not sent anyone here?"

"Don't you know what to say, the Blood Elf Alliance has already come, 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. ”

"These big guilds can still open up wasteland while fighting. It's really strong. ”

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.

"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."

"Yes, I feel that they have so many epic masters, and the land reclamation should be the most advantageous."

In fact, not only these ordinary adventurers wondered why Ashur and the Tower of Twilight didn't come to open up the wasteland, but there were also many presidents and heads of large guilds who also paid more attention to this, and the Tower of Twilight would not miss this kind of grand event, but they never saw Ashur bring people here, which made them very uneasy.

。 。

These large guilds, and even many of them, have become accustomed to clearing the wasteland for a period of time without success, and then watch the Tower of Dusk easily take down the first kill, and then send out strategies and images after a period of time, and then they learn to fight, and it is purely self-inflicted guilt to fight with the Tower of Dusk.

And this time Asher didn't bring anyone, which made them very uncomfortable.
