Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 244: Chapter 242: Formidable Tier Ten Equipment

Early in the morning.

Lin You left the territory and headed to the Dwarf Tribe.

According to the previous agreement, forging a Tier Ten Equipment takes five days.

It was now the morning of the sixth day, and it should be completed by now.

When Lin You, filled with anticipation, arrived at the deep forge inside the Dwarf Cave.

He happened to see Mageon sitting next to the anvil, wiping the War God’s Hammer in his hands.

Beside him, there was a piece resembling a chest plate with an arc mirror surface.

“You’re here?”

Mageon looked up at Lin You.

“The item is right next to you, take a look yourself. If you’re not satisfied, I can modify it for you.”

Can it still be modified?

Lin You tiptoed eagerly to the chest protector and picked it up.

It felt heavy in his hands.

Probably because it was made with Rock Monster Armor, it seemed sturdier than ordinary armor.

Faintly, a yellowish-brown glow flowed around the armor.

Eagerly, Lin You checked its information.

[Equipment Name: Profound Bull Heart Armor]

[Equipment Level: Tier Ten]

[Trait 1: Activate the chest armor to generate a shield around the body, formed by the Power of Rule, reducing damage by 25%, lasting 5 seconds.]

[Trait 2: Automatically counteracts 10% of damage when attacked.]

[Trait 3: When a fatal strike is received, the Profound Bull Heart Armor shatters, substituting that attack, ineffective for wearers above Tier Ten.]

[Universal Trait: For each Divine Fragment possessed by the user, the equipment effect increases by 10%]

[Extra: Unenchant]

[Introduction: Made from the strongest Heart Guard of the Cyan Profound Ox, fortified with the Power of Rule, incredibly defensive.]

Huh?

Divine Fragment?

Lin You was stunned.

This Tier Ten Equipment is influenced by Divine Fragments!

And for every additional Divine Fragment, the equipment’s effect increases by 10%!

He finally understood why everyone said Tier Ten Equipment was in such high demand.

The effect was simply incredible!

The basic effects of Tier Ten Equipment were already tremendously powerful, and with the addition of Divine Fragments, it could reach very exaggerated levels.

For instance, if one had ten Divine Fragments.

The damage mitigation of this equipment would double, reaching 70% when Trait 1 is activated!

This is somewhat like cultivators using their Spiritual Power to activate a Magical Artifact, the stronger the power injected, the stronger the artifact’s effect.

Except here it was replaced by the Power of Rule.

The more Divine Fragments, the stronger the Power of Rule naturally becomes.

The same principle applies.

“So, are you satisfied with this piece of equipment?”

At this time, Mageon’s voice sounded.

“Satisfied, very satisfied, but when you forged the Cannibalizing Soft Armor for me before, why didn’t you create such amazing attributes?”

Lin You couldn’t help but retort.

Negating a fatal blow.

This is absolutely one of the most crazy effects among all defense equipment, and it would probably be fiercely contested if taken out.

“You told me to focus entirely on defense, so I did as you asked.” Mageon shrugged, “Besides, that was Tier Eight Equipment, how could it compare to Tier Ten? This piece took a lot of effort, you owe me an extra 10,000 pounds of grain.”

“Alright, alright, 10,000 it is. I’ll deliver it to you once the next batch of grain is harvested.”

This time, Lin You didn’t argue with Mageon.

Because he knew very well that creating Tier Ten Equipment was indeed no easy feat.

And with such incredible attributes.

If sold, no amount of grain could exchange for it.

Without wasting any more time, after exchanging a few words with Mageon, he hurriedly left the Dwarf Tribe, mounted the Demon King Dragon, and headed back to the territory.

After a simple preparation, he quickly passed through the Secret Realm Gate, heading to the Secret Sanctuary.

Flash!

A flash of light.

Lin You appeared on a platform.

As soon as he steadied himself, he was startled by the sight before him.

As far as the eye could see, there were numerous broken Floating Islands, and huge floating rocks in the air.

Even the central city below was largely destroyed, some parts even completely leveled, and many shops suffered collateral damage.

This Demon outbreak was truly terrifying.

Fortunately, the street where Shifang Pavilion was located was fine.

After surveying the surroundings, Lin You mounted the Demon King Dragon and flew off the platform towards Shifang Pavilion.

At this time.

Inside Shifang Pavilion.

Lu Zhenxing stood sternly in front of two young juniors newly brought in for training from the family.

“I need to lead some people out now, you two make sure to watch the store well, without any sloppiness, understood?”

“Understood, Third Master!”

“Got it!”

The two youths replied promptly, a hint of fear in their eyes.

“Good, then I’ll be off.”

Without saying much more, Lu Zhenxing turned and left, hurriedly heading towards the Floating Islands, apparently in a rush to handle some business.

What he didn’t know was.

As soon as he left, Lin You arrived.

Amidst a gust of howling wind, Lin You landed directly on the open space in front of the Shifang Pavilion shop, then leaped inside.

“Shopkeeper Lu, I’m here.”

He called towards the direction of the inner room, but there was no response.

After a while, two young men came out from inside.

“What business do you have with the shopkeeper? He just went out.”

“And you are?”

Lin You looked at the newcomers with curiosity.

“We are the ones responsible for managing this shop. You can tell us if you have any matters.”

The two hadn’t forgotten Lu Zhenxing’s earlier reprimand, so they were rather polite to Lin You, though they didn’t think much of him.

After all, how could they casually meet the Third Master of the illustrious Lu family?

And by their estimation, Lin You seemed just like an ordinary customer.

By sheer misfortune, when Lu Zhenxing stepped out, he took with him a few staff members who knew Lin You.

Lin You surveyed the shop and it appeared that Lu Zhenxing was indeed absent.

So he asked, “Roughly when will he be back?”

“In probably less than half an hour.”

“Alright, I’ll wait here for him.”

Lin You didn’t say much more to them and directly wandered inside the shop.

He moved around as if he were in his own home, calmly strolling about, making the two both curious and uncertain.

“Could he really know the Third Master?” the young man dressed more plainly murmured.

“Not likely, is it?”

“In any case, we should be polite. Didn’t dad tell us to be perceptive when working under the Third Master? What if he really knows the Third Master?”

“That’s true.”

These two were merely collateral relatives of the Lu family.

Though they initially had some arrogance, they wouldn’t hold their noses up like the direct descendants.

After all, if they wished to ascend within the family, they had to grasp every opportunity.

Even if it’s just a slight one, they couldn’t let it slip by.

After thinking about it, the two exchanged a glance, fetched chairs and tea, and approached Lin You again.

“Sir, it must be tiring to stand and wait? Why not sit down and have some tea? Our shopkeeper should be back soon.”

“Oh, thank you.”

Lin You gave them a surprised look.

Seeing their welcoming expressions, he couldn’t help but ask, “Are you part of Shopkeeper Lu’s family?”

“Yes, we just came from the family today for some training,” the older youth nodded, “May I know what business you have with our shopkeeper?”

“Just some collaboration matters. By the way, what did you do in the family before?”

With a bit of time to spare, Lin You chatted with them about trivial matters, while also learning about the Lu family’s situation.

The two young men did not reveal any impatience and chatted about inconsequential things.

After about twenty minutes,

a cacophony of footsteps finally sounded outside.

Lu Zhenxing returned with several staff members, carrying a huge tusk from outside.

“The Third Master is back!”

The two Lu family juniors immediately tensed and hurriedly approached.

“Oh, you’re just in time, come and help move these. We got quite a treasure this time!”

Lu Zhenxing greeted them with enthusiasm, then entered the shop, instantly spotting Lin You seated inside, and paused in his steps.

“Young Master Lin? Why are you here?”

His voice was not disguised at all and reached the ears of the two juniors, causing their expressions to change.

Especially upon hearing how he addressed Lin You, they were even more shocked inside.

“I apologize for any inconvenience, I had to step out for a moment. Have you been waiting long, Young Master Lin?” Lu Zhenxing said apologetically.

“No trouble, I just got here a short while ago.” Lin You rose from his seat.

“That’s good. I rushed out and forgot to instruct the others. They didn’t show you any disrespect, did they?”

“You mean those two?” Lin You glanced at the two Lu family juniors who recently came in, smiling gently, “Not at all. I found them quite considerate; they were worried I’d get tired of standing and even brought chairs and tea.”

“Oh?”

Lu Zhenxing also looked at the two juniors with a gaze full of appreciation.

Thinking for a moment, he said to them, “You two go over to the accounts office now, and learn more about bookkeeping.”

“Yes! We’ll head there right away!”

The two juniors were overjoyed and responded promptly.

Handling accounts was a core task of the family business, usually reserved for well-performing direct descendants.

They hadn’t expected to gain such a significant opportunity from a simple compliment.

Thrilled and relieved,

They were glad they hadn’t been reckless, leaving no bad impression on Lin You.

Without daring to linger, they quietly memorized Lin You’s appearance, then quickly left the shop to learn bookkeeping.

After they were gone, Lin You continued to ask, “Did you go out to procure materials, Shopkeeper Lu?”

“Indeed, that tusk you saw earlier was the ivory from the Tier Ten Giant Elephant killed yesterday. I purchased it at a high price but had to bring people along to carry it back because it was too large for spatial storage.”

“Tier Ten materials?”

Lin You was taken aback.

“What? Is Young Master Lin interested?”

Seeing the light in Lin You’s eyes, Lu Zhenxing asked.

“I am interested, but I can’t afford it.” Lin You shrugged.

“There’s no need to buy it. If Young Master Lin can help us forge a Tier Ten Equipment this time, I can decide to give you one of the materials.”

“Are you serious?” Lin You’s gaze sharpened.

“Absolutely serious. Compared to Tier Ten Equipment, what is one material worth? Well then, why has Young Master Lin come at this time?”
