RPAGF Chapter 128: Consider Brother Units First
Chapter 128: Consider Brother Units First
"What... what quality is this?" Zhao Leiguang's voice was a little dry as he stared blankly at the white beam of light that pierced through his entire field of vision in the center of the altar.
Everyone present, including Xiao Qianyu who was used to seeing divine equipment, had their perceptions completely overturned by the scene before them.
Lu Yan slowly walked over.
He bent down at the source of the white beam of light and picked up a golden blueprint made of dragon skin.
It feels warm and smooth to the touch, yet it is as heavy as a thousand pounds.
【Ding! 】
Congratulations on obtaining the highest-level item: the "Dragon Rider of the Sea" set blueprint!
A concise system notification popped up in Lu Yan's field of vision.
【"Dragon Rider of the Sea" Set Blueprint (Highest Level)】
[Effect: This blueprint can be used permanently. Each crafting requires 300 'South Sea Dragon Scales', 100 'Deep Sea Black Iron', and 50 'Sea Monster Souls'.]
[Attribute: Can be forged an S-grade 'Sea-Suppressing Dragon Rider' set an unlimited number of times.]
[Core Set Attribute (5/5): Dragon Soul Resonance - The wearer gains the ability to breathe underwater, is immune to 70% of water damage, and deals an additional 200% damage to dragons and aquatic monsters.]
Holy crap!
Zhao Leiguang could no longer contain himself and rushed over, his head close to Lu Yan's personal terminal. When he saw the string of attribute descriptions that made his scalp tingle, he felt as if his bones had been removed and he almost collapsed to the ground.
"Unlimited...unlimited production of S-grade armor sets?" His voice trembled, his words tumbling out in a jumbled mess of excitement. "Immune to water damage, and triple damage to those bastards in the water? Old Lu! If this...if this could arm a 10,000-strong force, forget the South China Sea, we could sail our fleet straight to the west coast of the White Eagle Empire! Anyone who dares to stop us, we'll teach them a lesson about what it means to have the Dragon King come knocking on our door!"
One sentence ignited everyone's passion.
A 10,000-strong underwater force capable of producing an unlimited number of S-grade suits!
This is no longer a simple improvement in combat power; it is a strategic trump card that is enough to rewrite the global maritime military landscape!
Amidst the fervent discussion, Lu Yan's gaze fell upon the black conch shell that Basong had dropped after his death, nestled in the corner.
It lay quietly among the coral fragments, its cracks seeming to whisper of misfortune.
Lu Yan walked over without touching it, and the [Void Disc] at his waist silently activated. A barely visible black lotus phantom quietly bloomed at the bottom of the conch shell, beginning to silently analyze its underlying structure.
Soon, a series of encrypted and disguised messages appeared in his mind.
[Things that pollute the divine]
[Description: This item is a tool used by the followers of Echidna, the 'Observer of All Things,' to enslave powerful spiritual beings. It forcibly imprints a mark of obedience onto the target's soul by simulating divine fluctuations of a specific frequency.]
[Warning: Possessing and using this item will leave an indelible 'Abyssal Mark' deep within your soul, and your coordinates will be permanently marked by the 'Observer of All Things'.]
Observer of all things.
It's that name again.
Lu Yan's eyes turned cold. He instantly connected everything.
The White Eagle Empire doesn't genuinely want to support the South Asian Alliance; they're merely using these people to spread these "coordinates" imbued with divine aura in secret realms around the world.
They are paving the way for the arrival of the gods.
Just then, the analysis of the Void Disc took another step forward.
On the core structure of the conch, a black energy thread, a hundred times thinner than a human hair, is clearly marked.
One end of it is connected to a conch shell, while the other end penetrates the barrier of the secret realm, extending into the unknown, endless void.
This is the real "coordinate".
"Found it."
Lu Yan silently recited in his heart.
He didn't make a fuss, but simply mobilized the power of the [Disc of Nothingness].
The black lotus spun gently, and a pure force of "nothingness" precisely acted on the black energy thread.
There was no explosion, and no light effects.
The thread representing the "gaze of the gods" was silently cut off in a small section, severing its connection to this space at its source.
After doing all this, Lu Yan picked up the conch that had turned into an ordinary seashell and casually tossed it into his storage space.
On the other side, the battlefield has been cleaned up.
"Besides the Supreme Blueprint, we also found two Legendary Weapon Blueprints: the Wave-Breaking Trident and the Crab King Claw! We have enough materials to arm a small squad!" Wen Yue's voice was filled with excitement.
"And these too," Xiao Qianyu tossed several S-grade equipment pieces she had just picked out from the loot dropped by the dragon and flooded the area in front of everyone. "The stats are pretty good, better than what we have."
Zhao Leiguang was about to put on the brand-new S-class tower shield when he stopped halfway through reaching out.
He glanced at his battered gear, but images of his brothers from the fourth and fifth squads lying on stretchers in the makeshift camp, their eyes filled with resentment, flashed through his mind.
He silently placed the shield he was holding back into the pile of spoils.
"Captain," Zhao Leiguang said in a deep voice, looking at Xiao Qianyu, "I think we shouldn't accept these new equipment."
Xiao Qianyu looked at him, then at the others.
Shen Xinglin, Wen Yue, and even Su Yunqing all nodded silently.
Lin Chuxue was a little envious.
Her little face scrunched up, but she finally nodded heavily, as if making some great sacrifice: "That's right! Give them to them first! With Lu Yan here, what equipment can't we get!"
Despite saying that, her eyes still couldn't help but glance at the pile of glittering equipment, her face clearly saying "my darling".
Wen Yue, unusually, spoke up. She glanced at Lu Yan, who stood at the back of the line with no expression, then quickly looked away and whispered:
"With him around, equipment is not a problem."
"Look, our little beauty has learned to compliment people too." Su Yunqing said with a smile while continuing to treat Shen Xinglin.
Wen Yue's cheeks flushed slightly, and she didn't reply.
The team atmosphere became relaxed and lively.
Lu Yan walked over to Shen Xinglin's side. This silent knight had just regained his mobility thanks to Su Yunqing's all-out efforts to save him, but his face was still pale.
"Brother Shen, thank you." Lu Yan's voice was calm.
For teammates who only express themselves through actions, any fancy words are superfluous.
"It's my duty," Shen Xinglin replied, as brief as ever.
"I'll have a new Blu-ray set made for you when we get back," Lu Yan said, looking at the newly healed scar on his chest. "Don't worry, it'll be absolutely unique."
Shen Xinglin was stunned for a moment. He looked at Lu Yan, and a slight fluctuation finally appeared in his usually calm eyes.
He didn't ask any more questions, but simply nodded again and added a sentence.
"It's okay, let's think of everyone first."
The implication is that his personal strengthening should take precedence over the improvement of the nation's combat power.
Lu Yan said no more, only giving a knowing look.
