Volume 5: The Ancient Glorious Empire Chapter 95: Legendary Equipment Era
The research and development base of the legendary weapon is not in the forging workshop.
Instead, it was a wide field beneath the base, planted with strange vines.
Dozens of top researchers in the organization have gathered here.
There are Liu Ji and Liu Meng from the planting department, Long Junji and Han Xie from the forging department, etc. Although they are learning the professional skills of the mysterious side from scratch, they are taught by top people in the industry and have access to the world's top equipment, so their progress is naturally fast.
They are now on par with the chief researchers of many super oases.
After all, most of the chief researchers of Super Oasis were only at the level of Sixth Sense, while Han Xie and others were myths. The thinking speed, memory, and logical ability of myths were far superior to those of Sixth Sense, and they had a great advantage in learning.
It’s just that the myths of most forces only exist a few.
They have to stay in the oasis, they have to spend a lot of time and energy studying and developing their abilities, as well as practicing and improving themselves. How can they have the time to study side jobs?
Having strong logical thinking ability is not the same as being a top student or a genius.
If your learning ability is only 0.01 before being promoted to a myth, even if it increases by dozens of times after being promoted, it will not be much higher.
Ilohi is the most typical example. Although she is already on the road to a high position, she is still a complete academic failure.
Naturally, Master Wang Chui and Liu Shang were also present.
Somewhat to Fang You's surprise, Yin Ling was also there.
The "three giants" of Xinhuo Organization Life Profession were all present.
Master Wang Chui touched his shiny, reflective head and said, "The biggest difficulty in making a standard legendary weapon is the main material. We believe that if we can find a legendary main material that can be obtained in large quantities, we can overcome the biggest difficulty in the research and development process."
"But it seems impossible to obtain a large amount of legendary main materials. After much thought, we set our sights on plant materials."
There is no other reason. With these two great treasures, the special soil and the Idora Tree of Life, Xinhuo has an advantage in plant cultivation that even the overlords can hardly achieve.
He also possesses the Forest Seeds, a precious treasure that can randomly give birth to all kinds of mysterious plants, so Xinhuo has no shortage of plants to try.
This is an advantage and should naturally be utilized.
Plant-based and wood-based materials are also a large category of materials, and Master Wang Chui is no stranger to them.
However, he is very unfamiliar with plant breeding and directed evolution.
This is Liu Shang's territory.
Although this project is about the manufacture of a legendary strange weapon, Liu Shang is responsible for more aspects of the research and development process.
She bowed slightly and began to narrate.
Her voice is like the ethereal sound of sitting alone in a bamboo forest, bringing a sense of coolness and soothing the mind on a hot summer day. But...
When it comes to professional fields, Liu Shang can talk for one or two hours without any interruption.
Fang You opened his mouth but still didn't interrupt.
Master Wang Chui wiped the sweat off his face imperceptibly. He was obviously very familiar with Liu Chang's process and had heard about the research and development process more than once.
"Liu Shang is still as serious as ever."
Fang You said secretly.
He was also listening carefully.
In the past, he was unable to cope with Miss Liu's seriousness because he could not understand the professional terms.
Now, even though he wanted to skip the process and go straight to the result, he could still clearly understand the obscure terms in Liu Shang's words.
In addition to requiring a high level of professionalism, Liu Shang's narrative logic is very clear, with one thing connected to another.
Fang You omitted some processes and came to this conclusion.
At the beginning, Liu Chang used her own expertise, talent and core skills to evolve a legendary monster called "Ice Netherwood" and gave it to Master Wang Chui to create.
Soon, a legendary weapon was produced.
However, the legendary weapons that were created are only suitable for a few myths.
Although Liu Shang has the ability to cultivate the Ice Netherwood, the process requires an enormous amount of time, energy, and materials.
She has to do it herself.
This research and development was not successful, but it was considered as "cultivating" several legendary weapons.
The research was not entirely in vain.
In the second stage, Liu Shang began to study protective gear materials.
Although weapons can improve a myth's combat power more, armor is more universal. Liu Shang started her research from the vine materials she was most familiar with, and after a while, she cultivated another "legendary weirdo".
It can be forged into a legendary weapon called "Blood Vine Armor".
This strange weapon has a very wide range of applications and also has a certain killing ability, making it very suitable to be regarded as a "standard legend".
But it also faces the same problem - training consumption.
Of course, the research was not a complete failure.
Even though the cultivation of the main materials requires a lot of wealth and time, the overall cost of making a piece of blood vine armor is much lower than purchasing it from other overlord forces.
However, the production of Blood Vine Armor is still not high.
Because this kind of directional cultivation and evolution must rely on the legendary skill Tree of Life, Liu Shang or Fang You must personally do it to cultivate it.
The labor cost is too high.
This research and development phase took place half a year ago.
Fang You also discussed this with Liu Shang at that time, and finally decided to create a lower-level skill that could replace the Tree of Life.
He created it, but he didn't create it completely.
The skill is called "Hand of Growth". It is an epic-level pure auxiliary and farming skill with certain directional mutation and catalytic capabilities.
Using the myth of the Hand of Growth, it is indeed possible to cultivate specific legendary main materials, but it takes several times longer and requires more resources.
Generally speaking, the Blood Vine Armor can barely be called a standard legendary weapon.
However, Teacher Fang was not very satisfied.
Liu Shang was even more dissatisfied.
Thus, the research and development of the third edition of Standard Legend began again.
Liu Shang said, "...In the end, we decided to use 'life material' as the main material of the strange weapon."
She held out a vine.
The vines are blood red, somewhat similar to the previous blood vines.
However, the blood vine was a dead thing that was harvested after cultivation, while this vine was a living thing. Even though it had no wisdom, it was full of life force.
"Luo Yun vine has extremely strong toughness and regeneration ability, which makes it very suitable for making armor. Currently, this Luo Yun vine is of the top epic grade, but if it is refined with blood, mind and life energy, it may be promoted to the legendary grade."
Liu Shang got this idea from the road to a high position.
One of the conditions for her high position is similar to Liu Feng's, both require sacrifice and promotion. Liu Feng needs to sacrifice and forge his own natal sword, while Liu Shang needs to sacrifice and cultivate his own natal plant.
"However, how to turn living plants into weapons is the problem we are facing now."
Liu Shang only knows how to grow plants.
Master Wang Chui only knows how to forge strange weapons. The Luo Yunteng armor forged by his hands is already a dead object.
Yinling...Yinling is just here to make up the numbers.
She improved Luo Yun Teng's recovery ability by refining some essences, and made Luo Yun Teng have negative effects when attacking.
But Yinling doesn't know how to integrate living plants and equipment materials.
So, Teacher Fang came.
Fang You is not as good as Liu Shang in plant cultivation, nor as good as Wang Chui in casting strange weapons, but he knows a little bit about everything.
He has already become a full-time professional master!
He picked up a Luo Yun vine and activated the Tree of Life skill to explore it carefully.
He was also equipped with Master Wang Chui's core skill "Heavenly Creations", and in an instant, the world before his eyes changed.
Lines and textures emerge, and the flow of energy becomes clearer.
After thinking about it, Fang You also loaded the core skill "Fairy Medicine Body" of the silver bell, and took out one auxiliary material after another.
There are no legendary materials, but there are as many as twenty or thirty kinds of epic materials.
It is envisioned that the strange weapon created will only be of the top epic level, or half-step legendary.
This can upgrade to a legendary weapon in the shortest possible time.
It can also reduce costs and plant cultivation time.
It's perfect.
"But how do these things hold it together?"
Yinling poked the vine.
The vines extending from it suddenly shrank back and curled up into a ball, as if trembling with fear.
Yin Ling: “?”
You were in Liu Shang's arms just now, it wasn't like that!
Fang You picked up the vine. The rich life force made the vine squeeze into his arms.
He entered the high field of vision.
Each piece of material glowed with the aura of a treasure, floating around.
"The principle is similar to the fusion skill."
"In that case..."
The power of destiny, give me a try!
…
One month later,
The living equipment is out.
He named it Luo Yunteng Battle Armor. On the surface, it was just a bunch of vines, but as long as you drop blood essence to make a contract with it, the vines will quickly turn into battle armor and attach to the user.
And because of the existence of the contract, the user can continue to refine this strange weapon until it is promoted to the legendary level.
This is a standard legendary weapon that can be manufactured in large quantities, has low cost and a short manufacturing cycle!
There is only one flaw.
Normal legendary weapons can be used as heirlooms and passed down for thousands of years, but the Luo Yunteng armor, which requires a blood essence contract, can only have one user in a lifetime.
When the user dies, the armor perishes.
But compared with the advantages, this shortcoming is nothing.
Teacher Fang felt a little envious when he saw it, as he didn’t have any powerful legendary armor.
"That's right. Next, we will vigorously cultivate Luo Yunteng and find and purchase the corresponding auxiliary materials. We will strive to cast one thousand pieces within a year."
"Also, the research and development of standard weapons cannot be stopped."
The Big Three nodded.
Epic vines can be cultivated by powerful people like Liu Ji and Liu Ru, but Liu Chang still does it herself and constantly improves the cultivation method.
Master Wang Chui began to optimize the casting method and train as many Luo Yunteng armor casters as possible.
Silver bell... skipped.
Fang You and Liu Shang worked day and night for more than a month, consuming countless materials and divine crystals, and finally produced a precious experimental result - dozens of legendary Luo Yun vines.
Fang You took one of them and operated it himself to create a vine armor of the highest standard.
And use countless treasures, essence, blood, and laws to refine it.
One day, his armor might be transformed into a weapon of gods and demons.
So far,
Xinhuo has entered the era of legendary equipment.
