Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate - Chapter 388 - 385: Super Armament
Due to the Mechanical Empire undergoing repairs.
For the past few days, Lin You hasn’t gone to the Demon Plane to explore.
He’s mostly stayed within his territory, inspecting the development situation in Yellow Sand City, and completing some necessary buildings for development.
During this time, apart from Wei Jun coming to find him once to inquire about the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms, nothing noteworthy happened.
He more or less gave himself a break.
Until the afternoon of the fourth day.
This peaceful day was finally broken by a prompt.
[Tier Eight Plant Dragon branch research successful, recruitable species increased.]
“The research is completed?”
Lin You, who was checking the situation of the Flying Dock outside Yellow Sand City, paused for a moment, then showed a delighted expression.
After twenty days of research, the Tier Eight branch of the Plant Dragon was finally developed.
He hastily dropped what he was doing and rushed back to his territory.
Since advancing to Tier Eight.
His Plant Dragon species were limited to just two, and they were paired, also being his only two flying species.
Thus every battle caused him to worry they might fall.
Now things were better.
With the Tier Eight Plant Dragon branch completed, he no longer needed to worry about having enough flying species, and he could mutate the Profound Turtle Shield for Cyan Gang to equip.
Soon, Lin You landed back in his territory, arriving beneath the World Tree.
He opened the recruitment and deportation interface and took a glance, finding the option to recruit Tier Eight Plant Dragons indeed had been added.
After considering, he reduced the planting species to 10 units, and deported a few Calamity Sword Bamboo units, freeing up 9 slots in total.
Then he recruited two Demon Emperor Dragons and two Demon Queen Dragons, along with four Deceitful Willows, mutating them into Symbiotic Moss.
As for the remaining slot, he used it to recruit a Demon Emperor Dragon, mutating it into a Tier Eight Equipment Shield.
[Name: Wood Shield Profound Turtle (Ordinary)]
[Race: Plant]
[Level: Tier Eight (0/5000)]
[Power: 1850]
[Constitution: 2100]
[Agility: 1770]
[Spirit: 1900]
[Skills: Super Regeneration, Turtle Shield Mirror Wall, Earth Escape, Shield Form (Provides an extra 10% damage reduction for the wearer, and possesses equal constitution to the wearer.)]
[Introduction: One of the Equipment Species, able to freely switch forms, becoming the sturdiest shield for allies.]
The Tier Eight Wood Shield Profound Turtle, its constitution remains exceptionally high.
Even just recruited, it already possesses constitution far exceeding the limit of ordinary species.
Moreover, after Tier Eight, the shield form gained a new ability.
10% damage reduction, also able to obtain constitution equal to the user, survival ability is maximized, truly worthy of a Defense Type Equipment Species.
This trait is very similar to Symbiotic Moss.
The trait of Symbiotic Moss is sharing attributes with the wearer, so survival ability is similarly tied to the wearer.
With mutation completed, Lin You immediately called Cyan Gang to equip the shield form of the Wood Shield Profound Turtle.
Instantly.
Cyan Gang transformed into a mighty shield-bearing warrior, wielding a sword in one hand and a shield in the other.
Additionally paired with its inherently formidable power and constitution, along with its massive physique, it was practically a moving super-armament.
Also currently Lin You’s most comprehensively armed species.
After all, Cyan Gang is his leading general tasked with charging into battle, this much prestige is essential.
“Hmm, not bad.”
Seeing the drastically changed Cyan Gang, Lin You nodded in satisfaction.
After this mutation, apart from 10 planting type species and the Forest Sage and Ancient Tree of Knowledge, the remaining 317 species were all equipped with Symbiotic Moss.
Cyan Gang and another Commanding Ancient Tree were additionally equipped with Calamity Sword Bamboo, specifically to pave the way.
This constitutes all of Lin You’s current fighting forces.
Meanwhile, his magic energy also decreased a bit, down to around 480 million.
“Looks like I need to repay the money first.”
Lin You murmured softly.
During these days, he also went a few times to the Holy Sanctuary attempting to contact Li Ke, but couldn’t reach him.
If this continues, he fears he might spend all the money unjustifiably; he must quickly repay it.
With this thought.
He set aside his tasks, once again transporting to the Holy Sanctuary platform.
This time, luck was on his side, as he immediately reached Li Ke.
That guy seemed to be occupied with tasks in the Holy Sanctuary City and couldn’t leave for the moment.
So after exchanging a few casual words, he sent a rough location.
Without hesitation, Lin You immediately followed the location information, riding a Demon Emperor Dragon over.
Meanwhile.
Outside the Dwarf Kingdom’s camp.
Li Ke was fiercely arguing with several Dwarf Race guards.
“What’s the harm in letting me in? I just want to pay a visit to Master Alren!”
“No means no, Master Alren has already said, no seeing anyone!”
“Hey! You little dwarf, are you belittling me or what?”
“I know you’re the Crown Prince of the Xiangyue Empire, but no means no, don’t make things difficult for us!”
At the entrance of the Dwarf Race camp, a crowd of bystanders gathered to watch the commotion.
All watching the argument between Li Ke and the dwarf guards from afar, discussing animatedly, making the whole street lively and congested.
On one side was the Crown Prince of the Xiangyue Empire.
On the other side was the renowned Dwarf Kingdom.
These two together were enough to attract a mass of spectators, some even brought small stools to watch the drama with relish.
“What’s all the arguing about?”
Someone couldn’t help but ask.
“Seems like Li Ke wants the Master Craftsman of the Dwarf Race to help forge equipment, but the dwarf guards won’t let him in, hence the argument.”
“Ah? Li Ke is the Empire prince, he shouldn’t be short on equipment, right?”
“That’s ordinary equipment, is it the same as the equipment crafted by the Dwarf Race?”
“With his status, it should be easy for him to find equipment, right?”
“I doubt it. Behind every master craftsman above Tier Ten in the Dwarf Race, there’s a huge queue of bigwigs. Cutting in line is only possible if the Xiang Yue Emperor shows up personally.”
Li Ke might be the Empire prince, but he’s just a Tier Eight Lord himself.
The Dwarf Race may respect his status and won’t easily make a move against him, but they won’t let him break their rules because of it.
When it comes to their reputation, the Dwarf Race is very conscientious.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many waiting to buy their equipment.
The problem is.
This guy Li Ke is famous for his unorthodox behavior.
Indeed.
Not long after, he started bickering with a few Dwarf Guards.
If not for the Tier Nine Guard beside him holding him back, things might have escalated into a full-blown fight.
“Look, someone else is coming.”
At this time, a voice shouted from the crowd.
Everyone looked to the sky, and sure enough, saw a huge Plant Dragon speeding over, slowly landing on the open ground outside the Dwarf Camp amidst a strong gust of wind.
“Li Ke, what are you doing here?”
Lin You flipped off the Demon Emperor Dragon, staring surprised at Li Ke bickering with the Dwarf Guards.
Originally, he didn’t know Li Ke was here.
But seeing so many gathered, he came to take a look.
Only to find Li Ke causing trouble outside the Dwarf Camp, making Lin You’s face turn odd.
This guy really doesn’t do serious things, always messing around.
Aren’t you afraid of tarnishing the Xiang Yue Emperor’s reputation?
Seeing him appear, Li Ke’s eyes lit up.
Without hesitation, he shouted loudly, “Brother You, quick, come help me, help me choke these little dwarves!”
“…”
Little dwarves, you really dare to say that.
If it were anyone else, these dwarves would probably have already used War God Descending to split them in two.
While Lin You was speechless, the Dwarf Guards bickering with Li Ke noticed him too.
First, they paused, then immediately let go, running over directly.
“Sir, why are you here?”
Saying that, they respectfully saluted Lin You.
“You know me?” Lin You was stunned.
“Yes, the last time you came with His Majesty the King, we were on guard.”
“I see, thank you for your hard work.” Lin You realized.
It was the same group of Dwarf Guards he met last time, no wonder they recognized him.
“Not at all, it’s our duty. Are you here to see His Majesty the King?” The Dwarf Guards asked smoothly.
“No, just passing by for a stroll.”
“Oh, what a shame. Last time, His Majesty mentioned he’s been too busy lately to visit your territory.”
“That’s understandable. Mageon is the king now, of course, he’s busy. I’ll visit him when there’s a chance.”
“Alright, I’ll report the truth to them then.”
Lin You casually chatted with the Dwarf Guards amid the crowd, asking about Mageon and the current situation in the Dwarf Kingdom.
But unbeknownst.
This scene made the surrounding crowd widen their eyes in shock.
The proud Dwarf Race actually treated a Human Race member so politely?
Are they seeing things?
Not just them.
Even nearby Li Ke looked astonished, watching Lin You converse cheerfully with the Dwarf Guards.
“You… Brother You, you know the Dwarf Race?”
He couldn’t help but interrupt, breaking their conversation.
“Sort of, why?” Lin You glanced back at him.
“Why? Dwarves, these are dwarves!” Li Ke gestured wildly, pointing at the Dwarf Guards.
His expression was animated, almost writing ’utterly confused’ on his face.
Because even Tier Ten Powerhouses don’t always get face from the Dwarf Race, let alone being treated nicely.
But Lin You.
The Dwarf Race was very polite to him, even inviting him to the Dwarf Kingdom.
Only great emperors across the continent receive such treatment!
It’s hard for him to understand.
“Is this rude fellow your friend?”
The Dwarf Guards curiously asked Lin You.
“Yes, sort of.” Lin You nodded, “Did he cause you a lot of trouble earlier?”
“Indeed, he caused quite a bit of trouble.” The Dwarf Guards were straightforward.
“But since he’s your friend, he’s a friend of our Dwarf Race as well. If you’re looking to meet Master Alren, I can take you there now.”
“Really!?”
Li Ke’s eyes instantly lit up, utterly shocked.
He’d been begging for so long without success, but Lin You arrived and let him through immediately—how deep must their relationship be?
The Dwarf Guards cared not for his thoughts.
With a mere glance, they said, “You’re allowed to meet him, but whether he’ll craft equipment for you depends on Master Alren’s willingness.”
“No problem! As long as I can meet him!” Li Ke exclaimed.
“Alright, follow me then.”
The Dwarf Guards turned and headed into the camp without much ado.
Lin You and Li Ke promptly followed suit.
Soon, they disappeared into the guarded camp entrance, sparking discussions among the outside crowd, who seemingly didn’t expect this outcome.
