Chapter 47 Equipment Upgrading
Bai Ke put water, food, medicine, bandages, ropes with hooks and claws, knives and other items into his backpack, and also brought some camping items, which can be regarded as a good life.
Later, he tried to choose a weapon armor, but Dinah directly brought him a set of heavy plate armor and a pair of large gauntlets.
Bai Ke is a little strange, you must know that sanda fighters generally wear light armor and boxing gloves, but Dinah directly brought him plate armor and gauntlets, which is not in line with the professional setting.
"Dinah, why did you bring me plate armor and gauntlets? What about the light armor and fist gloves before? ”
Dinah shook her head and said to him, "Professionals don't have exclusive weapons and armor, they basically wear whatever they have. The armor coverage rate of light armor is too low, many body parts cannot be protected, and it is also easy to be damaged in battle, and the defense effect is far inferior to plate armor. In that case, why don't you just wear the plate armor? ”
"But isn't it too heavy? I'm afraid it will affect my speed! ”
"You don't have to worry about this, your physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people, and you can easily bear the weight of plate armor." Dina explained to Bai Ke, and then she changed her words and continued: "Master, this time is different from the past, you need to pay attention to concealing your identity. This full-body plate can cover most of your body, and the helmet also comes with a visor so that no one can see you if you put it down, which is also great for hiding your identity. ”
Bai Ke was right when he thought about it, so he no longer dwelled on the problem of plate armor. He picked up the gauntlet next to him and put it on his hand. Well, it's full of weight, but it's still within Bai Ke's tolerance, and it's good to be physically strong. He tried to exert himself vigorously, and soon frowned. Bai Ke knew that the attack of the gauntlet was more powerful, and it was more convenient to block and defend, but it was too restrained on his hands, and he couldn't move his fingers or joints, which had a great impact on his strength.
Bai Ke thought for a while and said to Dinah: "Dinah, please help me put on the armor, I want to actually try on this set of plate armor to see how it works." ”
"Okay, no problem." Dinah gladly agreed. She helped Bai Ke put on the plate armor, and Bai Ke put on the gauntlet again. Pulling down the mask under the helmet, Bai Ke at this time was like an iron man, his whole body was covered under steel, and his defensive power was very amazing at a glance.
Bai Ke in the armor frowned, and through the opening of the armor, the urn said angrily: "Dinah, isn't this a bit exaggerated?" I'm going out on adventures, not out to fight. ”
"Master, I'm afraid you've fallen into a misunderstanding. Arad's adventures are not fought alone, nor are individuals fighting each other, but fighting between different forces and races. This is more like a decisive battle on the battlefield than a civil brawl, how to better protect yourself and kill the enemy is the first priority, the thicker the armor and armor, the better, and the more powerful the weapon, the better. Moreover, it is not illegal to wear plate armor on the mainland, and wealthy adventurers with conditions will customize a set of plate armor for themselves. ”
"I see." Bai Ke was no longer entangled, he began to try to exercise, and at the same time tested his strength. In this test, Bai Ke found that something was wrong. This set of plate armor is worn on the body, although it is a little heavy, but for Bai Ke, it is equivalent to an ordinary person wearing a thick cotton coat, which is not very unbearable. Considering its defensive power, it's more acceptable. But the armor coverage rate of the plate armor is too high, many parts of Bai Ke's body are bound by the armor, he wants to exert all his strength, but many muscle tissues are shackled, and the flow of strength is not smooth, and the joint force cannot be formed, which makes Bai Ke's combat effectiveness drop a lot, which makes him intolerable. Moreover, the gauntlet also seriously affected the strength of his hands, and the dark energy burst could not be hit at all. As a result, Bai Ke's fighting ability was almost half abolished. He told Dinah about the situation, wondering if she had a solution, but he had to put on his light armor and gloves.
"That's it!" Dinah frowned as well. Although plate armor provides higher defense, it is a bit more than worth the cost if it is obtained at the expense of attack power and even mobility.
"It's that I'm not thinking it through. I created this armor in your shape, and I didn't expect it to affect your skills so much just because of its protective effects. Actually, I have your cultivation model here, and I should have considered your strength as a whole. Well, give me three days, and I'm going to make a deal of work on this armor. ”
Bai Ke nodded, satisfied with Dinah's attitude. He also made some suggestions, such as adding a heat-insulating and resistive lining to the inside of the plate armor, this set of plate armor is all-metal, and he should be very afraid of electric shock, so he should take precautions.
Dinah wrote down Bai Ke's requests one by one, saying that she would rectify them all.
"As for the gauntlets, I will also make some rectifications to improve the flexibility of the joints and fingers, but it may still not meet your requirements for dark strength. This is a conflict of principles, and rigid materials cannot meet the needs of stacking strength. ”
"Huh?" Bai Ke was a little dissatisfied, he touched his chin and thought carefully, "What about changing to flexible materials?" How about keeping the gauntlet part of the gauntlet, lining the palm with cloth and leather, and then covering it with a layer of wire gloves? He thought of the handguard design he saw in a film and television drama.
Dinah looked at Bai Ke with some surprise, she didn't expect him to make such a constructive suggestion. She thought about it carefully, nodded and agreed with Bai Ke's suggestion: "No problem." Your idea is great, host, I will follow your suggestions to rectify it. ”
Bai Ke was a little proud when he heard this, and couldn't help touching his chin, but unfortunately there was not a wisp of long beard under his chin for him to stroke.
For the next half a month, Dinah has been rectifying the plate armor gauntlets. In fact, it didn't take so long, but Bai Ke joined in halfway. After all, this set of weapons and armor was for him to use, and he wanted to transform it to be more in line with his own heart, and he could also give full play to his strength.
Dinah agreed, and Bai Ke's previous suggestion was very good, and she also wanted to know if Bai Ke could put forward more and better constructive suggestions. As a result, Bai Ke didn't disappoint her, but it also disappointed her a little.
The gauntlet part was completely rectified according to Bai Ke's requirements, and there was nothing to say, but the armor part Bai Ke put forward a lot of additional requirements.
In order to better exert force, the full set of plate armor has been greatly modified except for the breastplate part, which is still integrated. The outer side of the limbs still retains the one-piece plate structure, but the inner side has been completely changed to a scale structure, and the high-strength and high-elasticity metal wire braided alloy iron plate is combined with the outer plate armor. These scales can be stretched out when Bai Ke's muscles are expanded, without causing shackles, but the elastic force of the wire will make the strength be restricted, and it can circulate more quickly, so that it can improve some of the strength efficiency. While this may take some time for Bai Ke to get used to, it's much better than the old plate armor that was originally less efficient.
In the matching steel boots, Bai Ke has made certain adjustments according to the principle of his hometown speed increase shoes, which can make the walking speed slightly improved.
For the helmet, Bai Ke asked to add three metal horns to it, one on the top of the head and one in the middle of the forehead, which was both aesthetically pleasing and could cause more damage in the head attack.
These transformations are quite practical, but Bai Ke's next request made Dinah a little dissatisfied.
The main breastplate of the plate armor has not changed much, only the cut resistant standing collar has been added at the upper edge of the neck, but Bai Ke asked to draw a dragon skull relief in the middle of the breastplate, which should be powerful and domineering. It is also necessary to change the appearance of the two shoulder armors to a tiger head and a wolf head to make the armor more gorgeous and magnificent. In addition, it was requested that the helmet and visor be changed to the shape of a demon to increase the level of ferocity.
At the same time, Bai Ke also put forward higher requirements for the inner lining of the armor, not only to insulate heat and electricity, but also to be soft, comfortable and breathable. This made Dina a bit nerve-wracking, and finally came up with a three-layer composite structure lining design, which made the lining both thick and comfortable, and good breathability. However, the size of the armor needed to be increased to accommodate a thicker lining.
There were so many changes to make that Dinah had to redraw the design of the entire armor and recreate a new one.
The new armor is blue-blue as a whole, with a dragon head painted on the chest, a tiger and wolf on the shoulder, a demon on the face, and horns on the top of the head. Bai Ke almost moved himself to tears when he put it on, he was so handsome! He turned around in front of the mirror a few times, thought about it and added two round hooks to his shoulders, and then hung a large hook with blue stripes on a red background, which made it even more majestic, and it was so cool and handsome.
After Dina saw it, she couldn't help but hold her forehead with her hand, Bai Ke's pursuit of handsomeness seems to have never changed! In the end, at Dinah's strong request, Bai Ke had no choice but to take down the beautiful big bar. There's no way, the white Ke dressed in the big coat is too stylish and eye-catching (in fact, it is already very eye-catching if you don't approve the big one), which is really not conducive to concealment.
