Chapter 429: Promotion/Invisible Armor
After chatting with everyone in the captain's room about the next mission.
The others left.
Alka and Simon still stayed in the captain's room. They still needed to make some plans based on the divine essence obtained by everyone.
"Jason, we can wait until Urulius wakes up before making a decision," Alka said, temporarily crossing out Jason's name in his little notebook.
Then he looked at the names listed below.
"Do we have enough materials to complete Julia's request?" Alka asked, looking at the records in the small notebook.
Almost all the forging materials on the ship are stored in the treasury, and most of them are counted and maintained by Simon.
After all, he is an expert in this field.
Julia's divine essence is also recorded in detail in the small notebook.
The phonograph, this is the treasure foundation that must be matched with Julia's divine essence.
The divine essence can store the sound and the power it represents, play it in a loop when needed, and release the power at the same time.
Again, a peculiar but useless feature under normal circumstances, but it is just right for Julia at this stage.
Through the divine essence of everyone, Alka has basically confirmed that the rule of equivalent exchange must exist in the Tower of Trials at this stage.
It should be to exchange the divine essence that one already possesses into something suitable for everyone according to the rules.
They are all of low value, but when given to the right person, they will be transformed into high-value divine essence.
I have to say that this rule is indeed very useful in such a situation.
In Julia's words, it means being able to use different music scores and different instruments to create a combination of sounds during battle, which can have multiple and all-round gain effects.
It can also collect the power of sound, which means that if the sound of this sound wave can cause an attack, the same effect can be achieved.
And even the sound of Julia's harp, which will be amplified by sound, can be infused in.
After it is released, it can also be broadcast over a wide area and can be transmitted very far.
And the Voice of Dawn can also sing, and her singing voice is also magical. She has been learning these skills from Julia a long time ago.
Now you can play with Julia and record your voice into it.
"I checked and found that the materials are insufficient. If we want to achieve the effect we designed before, we must purchase exotic and rare materials on the Twin Islands."
There was also a record booklet in front of Simon. He looked at it and said.
Alka nodded, circled Julia's name and looked at the next one.
The next one is the name of Pororo, and Pororo’s divine essence is a bit peculiar.
This is a function that Alka and the others had never thought of. Simply put, it can make all of Pororo's melee combat effective within a certain range.
For example, when Pororo uses the treasure composed of the essence of divinity to attack, it is a melee attack in itself, but it can project this melee attack outside a certain range and turn it into a long-range attack.
As for how large the range is and whether the attack caused will be attenuated, the effect can only be known after the treasure is made.
As for this treasure, Porro wanted it to look like a pair of arm armor.
"What about Pororo's arm armor?" Alka asked, looking at the simple design in his hand.
Simon nodded and said, "We have these materials on board now and can manufacture them."
Essentially, this is because Porro's equipment is similar to Xia Daiti's pair of earrings, and the material requirements are not high. As long as the material is suitable and the quality of the carrier is not a problem, there is no need to consider other things.
Since it was feasible, Alka checked the box for this equipment.
Then he looked at the name that had just been written, Lucelia's name.
I only had a brief understanding of Lucilia's divine essence before boarding the ship.
Just like Lucilia, it is a treasure related to the soul.
Moreover, the effect displayed was particularly vague. Even if Alka brought this divine essence into the dream to check it out, he could only know that it had a function that affected the existing souls.
It was too abstract, so even though Alka had eyes that could see through secrets, he couldn't understand it in more detail.
Therefore, Lucelia's request for this treasure was to be made into the shape of a gem.
"As for Lucilia's treasure, we still have the materials on the ship. We should be thankful that we didn't use up all the materials when we made the doll girl and her body. Otherwise, we might not be able to buy it even if we bought it on the Twin Islands."
Simon said with some relief. After all, it was really difficult to get soul-related materials.
Most of these materials can only be produced in relatively extreme environments.
It just so happened that the last time they were making Lucelia's new body and the puppet girls' soul cores, they got enough materials on the Island of the Dead and did not use them up.
In other words, this treasure can be directly put on the production schedule.
Alka said as he looked at the small notebook in his hand and nodded.
"Then during the voyage, our mission is to create the treasures of Lucilia and Pororo."
Hearing this, Simon nodded. As for his own treasure, it was the same as Alka's, and he also suffered from the problem of insufficient materials.
This time when they return to the Twin Islands they will definitely need to do a lot of shopping.
…
The sound of dawn sails on the vast ocean.
However, today's sound of dawn is slightly different, because the magic vortex composed of magic power once again appeared on the top of the ship.
It was obvious that someone was about to make a major breakthrough, and that was how the vortex of magic could be created.
Everyone on the ship was basically waiting at various places on the deck, and the one who was breaking through was none other than Jason.
In terms of apparent speed, the combination of Jason and Urulius was only second to Alka.
He became the second fastest in the team, followed by Xia Daiti.
"How long will it take you to advance to the fifth stage?" Alka asked Xia Dai next to him.
Xia Daiti thought for a moment and said, “I’m only at the 79th spiral now, and I still need two spirals to reach the perfection of the 4th stage.
Then it will take another month or two to break through, maybe after you get the Gemini Island and complete your treasure. I might be able to break through to the fifth stage."
Hearing this, Alka nodded and said that it shouldn't take long. Time passed very quickly for them. Then he shook his shoulders.
"What about you?"
Lucilia, who was sitting on his shoulders, said as he swayed: "It's still too early for me. It will take at least half a year."
Lucilia's current meditation speed is average among the entire team, but before it was below average.
Now it is only the 77th spiral, and it will take more than half a year to advance to the fifth stage. This is because Alka will complete the production of the new treasure, allowing her to master the future forecast.
According to everyone's speed, everyone will break through to the fifth stage one after another within the next year, and Lucillia should be among the last batch.
But at least before leaving the Gemini Islands, they will definitely reach the fifth stage.
Because there are too many treasures that need to be made recently, including Alka's own scepter-level treasure that takes a lot of time to make.
It is extremely difficult to make this treasure and make it function perfectly.
Not to mention that they didn't have enough materials, and they had to buy some materials on the Twin Islands. It wasn't like they could get them whenever they wanted, they had to wait and make reservations, and all of this took time.
It is expected that they may have to stay on the Gemini Islands for the entire next year to fully absorb the gains from this round-trip voyage.
The magic vortex that suddenly formed disappeared, and the magic power began to fill the gaps formed around it.
Apparently, Jason has successfully advanced to the fifth stage.
Sure enough, as soon as this happened, Jason jumped directly down from above.
"Congratulations, how do you feel?" Alka asked with a smile.
Jason smiled and said as he sat next to him, "I don't think the improvement in strength from the third stage to the fourth stage is that obvious."
"You are talking nonsense." Alka said.
According to their current experience and knowledge of strength advancement, the improvement in strength during the even-numbered stages is the most obvious and greatest.
For example, stage two, stage four, and stage six.
Starting from the fourth stage, you can master scepter-level treasures. By the way, you can perfectly master holy grail-level treasures at this stage, which is of course a great improvement.
The same is true for the corresponding six stages.
This is also Alka’s greatest feeling about his strength in the dream.
In the dream, Alka can be considered to have truly become the complete form of the Dream King when his strength reaches approximately the 6th stage.
Later on, your strength in dreams will improve, and you will start to become stronger as a dream king.
“If I have to say anything else, it’s that I’m giving more strength back to Urulius now, after all, she hasn’t advanced yet.
As for what level of power it will reach after this, we will have to wait until Urulius reaches the same level to know."
Hearing this, Xia Daiti beside him immediately asked impatiently: "How long will it take for Urulius to advance to the fifth stage and then wake up?"
"It will be soon. According to my current strength, it will take less than half a month to feed it back."
Hearing this, not only Xia Daiti, but everyone nodded in unison.
Jason looked at everyone strangely. He didn't know why these people had inexplicably hoped that Ululius would wake up sooner since he fell asleep.
Just then, Alka interrupted and said, "That won't take long. Now that I think about it, it's really hard to operate without Urulius."
"Lucilia's treasure requires a ritual to perfectly integrate the soul into the essence of divinity. If Urulius doesn't wake up, there is no guarantee that the ritual will be perfect.
My treasure also requires Urulius to perform a large and tedious ceremony, and I have to ask her opinion.
There is only half a month left. I am really worried that she will be like other dragons and sleep for several years."
Hearing what Alka said, Jason nodded in agreement. It was indeed true.
It was a coincidence that Urulius fell asleep at a time when everyone needed her help.
The doubts that had just arisen were instantly thrown behind his mind.
Lucilia, who was sitting on Alka's shoulder, gave him a thumbs-up.
"I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go back to my room and practice my new powers. It will take some time to get familiar with them."
Jason said as he started to stand up, but Alka immediately patted him and pulled him back.
"Don't worry, Porro's treasure was just made today, don't you want to take a look?"
Hearing this, Jason immediately stopped and sat back down.
Porro, who had been leaning against the side of the boat, turned around in surprise; he had no idea about this.
After Alka finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to open a space door, and then took out a box from it.
Although treasures cannot be stored in the space ring, they can indeed be placed in Alka's other space. Alka's other space, let alone storing treasures, has become a small world in itself.
Even crown-level treasures can exist in it, although this space is essentially a scepter-level treasure.
But the two are not in conflict.
As Alka took out the box and opened it.
Inside was a gray-blue arm armor, which was made of a structure similar to soft scales. It looked like soft armor, with fish-like scales overlapping and extending on it.
Push the box in front of Pororo.
"Come on, try it out and see if it fits."
Pororo looked at the fish scale arm armor in the box and took it out impatiently. Then he put it directly on his arm. The special structure made it stick firmly to the forearm and locked tightly around it.
When it is applied like this, it looks as if a piece of metal fish scale has grown on Porro's forearm, and it has a matte color.
Looking at the arm armor on his arm, Porro shook it twice, very satisfied.
Then he took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
The magic power flowed directly into the arm armor through the arm.
With the influx of magic power, he entered the process of mastering the treasure, and the matte color of the arm armor itself reflected the luster of metal.
The fish scales covering the arms began to sway like waves.
I could feel some invisible wave spreading around me, but I couldn't see anything special with my naked eyes. Except for the metallic sheen on the scales on my arm, everything seemed so quiet.
This invisible wave does exist and people can feel it clearly. It's a weird feeling.
The entire control process seemed so ordinary, without any special features.
Until Polo opened his eyes, no one saw any special effects at all. This was obviously different from when they had mastered the treasure before.
The special scene when mastering the treasure is so exaggerated that it can directly change the weather.
The more low-key ones should at least emit some matching light, unlike Porro's which has nothing but some invisible fluctuations.
As Pororo opened his eyes, he raised his hands, seeming to be thinking about something.
He waved his hands like this, as if he was feeling something.
Under the gaze of everyone, he turned around and suddenly made a snapping gesture at Jason.
Jason, who was looking at him, suddenly felt something and dodged to the side.
But it was obvious that he dodged a little too much this time, as if he had not yet fully mastered the power brought by the recent promotion in his body. He dodged directly and bumped into the pillar, almost falling to the ground and losing his balance.
However, nothing strange appeared where he dodged.
"Were you attacking me just now?" Jason asked confused.
Porro said nothing and turned to Juanlu.
Juanlu, who is still in the fourth stage, obviously does not have as sharp perception as Jason who just advanced.
The whole person was directly attacked by the invisible force and knocked off the flower bed and fell directly into the flower bed.
He quickly stood up and touched his head.
Everyone could see that there was a very obvious red mark on Juanlu's forehead.
"Invisible attack?" Xia Dai asked.
This attack was very similar to what they had encountered before, when they were attacking Kriel, who was able to generate invisible pressure.
Juanlu touched his forehead and shook his head, saying, "No, I didn't feel anything different until the touch and pain appeared on my forehead."
This is different from Creel's. When the wave comes, he can feel the oncoming pressure, very, very obvious.
At this time, Porro's body was wrapped with lightning, and then he swung it downwards suddenly.
The lightning flashed, and it was an annihilation attack that could cause extremely exaggerated damage.
However, the attack did not cause any change in the air, but the sea surface in the distance suddenly exploded.
Lightning suddenly appeared on the sea.
Obviously, the same remote attack appeared in the distance.
Pororo's voice sounded: "This treasure can transmit my attacks to a certain range. This distance should be able to be increased. At this stage, it is only 20 meters. I can make my attacks appear in other directions 20 meters around me.
My control is still a little imprecise, and it takes some time to train before I can accurately place him where I want him to be. "
After hearing this explanation, I realized that the treasures given by the Trial Tower were indeed suitable.
The problem with Pororo is that once his first attack hits the enemy, the enemy will try their best to dodge the subsequent attacks, or even keep a large distance from him.
Simply put, avoid a head-on confrontation with him.
