Chapter 156: Happy Cooperation?

"It's some kind of ...... Power armor? ”

"That's right."

Su Jing clasped his hands together and stared intently at the armor on the table, the hard steel components were pinched and pinched like plasticine, shaped into various shapes.

“…… I have a question. ”

"Excuse me."

"Where does the energy come from?"

“…… This is indeed a problem. ”

The power armor made by Su Jing now is the product of his simplified power armor in the Radiating World Realm, with a simple shape and a lot of subtle adjustments, just a general meaning. However, the most important issue, as Lu Mengyao said, is still the problem of energy.

The only energy system that can be used in this world is a prop called a "soul stone". This particular gem can absorb the souls of creatures through a certain spell to store powerful magical energy, and is an essential consumable for the school of enchantment. All the magic items in this world need to be charged with soul stones full of souls, otherwise when the energy is consumed, no matter how powerful the magic items are, they will lose their effectiveness.

"There's no stable source of energy, so what you make...... IMHO, it's nothing more than a pile of scrap metal. Lu Mengyao sat on the bed and sneered as Su Jing carefully adjusted the shape of the armor.

“…… That's why I'm bringing you here, my dear friend. Su Jing jumped down from the chair, walked in front of Lu Mengyao, and picked her chin with two fingers, "I'm sure you'll be able to solve this problem, aren't you?" ”

"Two conditions. First. Untie my shackles, second. Give me back my stuff. To be exact, I need my phone. ”

"Deal."

Su Jing snapped his fingers. The shackles on Lu Mengyao's wrists, which had no way to unlock them at all, snapped into countless metal fragments.

Lu Mengyao first tidied up her crumpled robe, then rubbed her fingers and moved the muscles and bones of her wrists. Then she punched Su Jing in the face, for Su Jing, whose physique had been strengthened to the inhuman level, this blow was no different from tickling, but Lu Mengyao rubbed her almost broken wrist with a painful face.

"My phone. It contains pictures of enchanted spells and circles. ”

Over the next two hours, the two began to study how to convert the elemental energy in the soul stone into energy that could power the power armor. The strips of leather are broken down into simple insulators, which are then formed into simple wires that run through the interior of the steel armor. The last is from the magic circle enchanted by thunder and lightning. The two finally found a way to convert elemental energy into electricity.

Among the materials prepared in advance, Su Jing deliberately added the option of "a large number of soul stones" to the list. On the table in front of the two of them, there was a large bowl of soul stones of different sizes. Su Jing made an energy slot attached to the side waist of the power armor, so that it could be replaced with a new energy source at any time.

Inside the energy tank, Lu Mengyao held a mobile phone in one hand, and drew the runes of the lightning enchantment with charcoal in the other, while Su Jing concentrated all the internal energy transmission lines to the location of the energy tank, made a switch to control energy loss, and then engraved the runes on the link of the energy tank.

"That's pretty much it." Lu Mengyao picked a medium-sized piece from the large bowl of soul stones on the table. A slot embedded in an energy slot.

Five minutes later, Garma received the message. Stone Fist sent a soldier over as a test for the new "Magic Armor".

It is difficult to wear this armor, and it is difficult for one person to do it. Moreover, Su Jing also had to fine-tune the armor of the soldier's body shape on the spot, which made the progress of armor production in the back even slower. In Garma. Under the gaze of Stone Fist, Su Jing began to teach the soldier carefully. How to go about operating this armor.

"Don't be too nervous, relax. Just imagine it's a part of your body. You're just one more body organ...... And it guides each other. Don't resist the force of it......"

It turns out that Su Jing's equipment still has a big flaw: too much energy. The output is too strong. The strength was too strong for the Nord warrior who was in contact with power armor for the first time, and he could barely keep up with it. Moreover, he always habitually used his strength to forcibly drive these armors, so that Su Jing had to limit the power of the energy in the soul stone to a relatively low level, so as not to affect the warrior's own movements, and to enhance his strength.

In the subsequent combat tests, Su Jing's power armor design finally highlighted its advantages. After twenty minutes of warm-up, the Soldier in Power Armor took down the five Stormcloaked Soldiers who were also wearing heavy armor in twenty-seven seconds with their bare hands.

Watch Ufrik at the scene. Stormcloak rose from his chair, his ginger beard trembling slightly, and the gloomy man let out a thunderous laugh. The Lord of the Eastern Realm, who had learned the Dragon's Roar from Graybeard on the Heights of Hosgar in the Throat of the World Realm when he was younger, was a candidate for Graybeard's next term. But he didn't want to be an ascetic, so he left the Heights of Hosgar and participated in the Great War of the World Realm between the Empire and the Ancestral Divine State.

When he was captured by the elves and ransomed, he returned to Stormhelm, only to be greeted by the news of his father's death. Ufrik, who took over as Lord of Wind Helmet, received news of peace between the Empire and the Ancestor Shenzhou at this moment. In the war, it was obviously a crushing victory for the Empire, but the Emperor still signed a humiliating platinum contract, abandoning the belief in the Holy Spirit of Talos, the greatest emperor in the history of the Empire.

Like thousands of angry and lost Nords, the question of "what are we fighting for?" haunts the hearts of this proud nation. The retired veteran turned his anger to the corrupt and incompetent center of the empire. He infiltrated Dugu City and killed the High King of Skyrim Province in a duel. Leading his former colleagues in a rebellion against the Empire, they are known as the Stormcloak.

And in this endless bloody civil war, he finally saw the light of victory.

"Why did you choose to support the Imperial Army so quickly?" Su Jing clasped his hands and looked at the soldiers in the training ground who were receiving the cheers of everyone.

"Because the Nords don't like mages. It's easier for me to move on the Imperial side. That's why. Lu Mengyao shrugged her shoulders, "If I were here." Then it may be ten times harder to gain their trust. And the Nords have less respect for women than the Imperials. and racism. ”

"Racism is a political necessity." Su Jing pouted, "At such a time, it is only through racism that the Nords can be united into a solid whole. Otherwise, the Storm Cloak would have been crushed by the Imperial Army. And the upper echelons of the empire have long since decayed, and the provinces have become independent one after another. I remember that now the empire actually controls only two provinces, including Cellodiel. Only a new and strong human government can restructure the human side. The Elven Somer government has seized power, so the Storm Cloak is a good choice. ”

"Well, you don't have a choice anyway." Seeing that the Eastern Realm Lord was walking in this direction, Lu Mengyao covered his face with a gray cloak and retreated behind Su Jing. The shackles on her feet were clanging.

“…… I don't know what you're going to do if you don't have it......" Ufrik exclaimed, "Tell me, what you lack, whatever I can provide, I can supply." ”

"Soul Stone. Lots of soul stones. There must be a soul sealed within. Su Jing said.

"This ...... Well, I'll do my best. Ufrik took a deep breath.

The Soul Stone can be regarded as the most expensive consumable item in this world, especially the one that seals the soul. An empty soul stone may only cost a few dozen to a few hundred pieces, but once the soul is sealed, it depends on the size of the spirit body it contains. The price will skyrocket to five to ten times. The most expensive large soul stones can even fetch a high price of two thousand or even three thousand gold coins.

All the enchanted weapons in this world need to be inlaid with a soul stone as the "energy pool" of their magic power. After that, you can use any size soul stone to charge, but the soul stone that is the initial soul stone determines the amount of energy contained by the weapon and the upper limit of the power output. Therefore, large soul stones and multiple small soul stones may contain the same amount of elemental energy, but the price is very different.

The most tragic thing is that once this precious item is completely used up, it will be completely discarded. Unless it is processed. Only the soul stone that cannot be removed as the base of the equipment can be recharged repeatedly. and one of the legendary demon artifacts, the Star of Azula – a vessel of souls that will never be damaged.

"Speaking of which, we might as well find a time to finish the mission of the Star of Azula. How is it? Su Jing asked without looking back.

No response.

"Okay, I guessed it." Su Jing sighed. He stepped back silently, hiding in the shadows of the darkness.

————————————

A shackled maid walked quickly and quietly through the palace of the kings with a plate. Maybe he recognized her as Tom. Bloodless. Su's slave girl, maybe she didn't notice this guy who served the plate at all, and no one cared about it along the way. This also made her quickly return to Su Jing's studio and retrieve her equipment. With a simple percussion technique, Lu Mengyao untied the shackles on his feet.

"I thought it would take me a while to get away with it so easily...... What are you playing again? Su Jing's friend? The mage reloaded her captured gear from the chest, missing the black storage ring. She spun another white jade ring and stowed all the armor drawings on his desk into storage. Then he took off the white jade ring and replaced it with a large ruby ring.

Two minutes later, the gates of the palace of the kings were blasted open from the inside by a huge force. Lu Mengyao turned the ring of the battering ram ring to the back and pulled out two staffs, one red and one blue.

"As long as Ufrik is dead, then the Storm Cloak will naturally disintegrate." She stretched out her right hand, and a powerful bolt of lightning erupted from the end of her staff, electrocuting the two Stormcloaked soldiers into charcoal.

"Slaughter the city...... It's not difficult, as long as my dear friend Su Jing doesn't come to stop me. ”

She looked around.

"Hmm...... Looks like he didn't want to stop me. Then ...... Happy to work with. (To be continued......)
