The Strongest Beast Tamer 137 Blade Testing And New Armour

Lachlan nodded before running back to the room with the Altar of Strength; taking a step in he felt his surroundings change, it was as though something was trying to push him towards the ground. It gave off a similar feeling to the island's gravity, however, it was much weaker. It seemed to be at most, 2 time Earth's gravity.

Taking another step the gravity increased again, but only ever so slightly, it was increased in decimals rather than whole numbers. This made it extremely easy, Lachlan just walked right up to the statue and tapped on it with his hand.

"Challange complete. Strength is about rus.h.i.+ng towards any obstacle and taking it down, defending your friends and family until your last ounce of strength. You have pa.s.sed with flying colours, you have the strength of a king!" A low and deep sound echoed through his soul.

'Wait a minute, what was that? I have the strength of a king?' Lachlan was momentarily stunned before he realised something vital. 'It seems the king is placed on a higher pedestal than the heroes. So then maybe I have the perseverance far surpa.s.sing that of a hero.'

Lachlan had to give it to the king. He certainly had an arrogance to him, one that would probably even put Simon to shame. Lachlan than nodded as he tapped the statue again. 'Alright, it's about time I take that sword of yours.'

Walking outside the room he turned and headed for the weapon in the room nearby. When Lachlan reached it he took out his hands and held on the sword firmly, both his hands wrapped and tightened around the sword's hilt.

"Arg!" Lachlan groaned as he lifted the sword off the ground easily. He was expecting a lot more resistance from it, he almost swung himself to the roof.

Letting on hand go he held the sword up easily, it senses a powerful energy flow through his body. He felt his strength increase along with his vitality, he felt as though he could fight for years on end without rest.

Looking towards the sword again he wanted to see if there was any difference. 'a.n.a.lyse'

Name: Tank Hero's Broadsword (Awakened)

Description: A man-made sword created with G.o.dstone, blessed by the G.o.d of endurance and strength. This broadsword is fit for a tank, bearing the attacks of enemies to allow for his party to attack unhindered. To wield this sword one must have the perseverance of a hero and 150 stats in strength.

Effect 1 (Pa.s.sive). Increases strength and vitality by 50 points.

Effect 2 (Pa.s.sive). Reduces fatigue by 50%.

Effect 3 (Sealed). Attracts all hostile attention from both beasts and humans.

--------------------------------------------------------

Although it said awakened it likely meant that it was now in use. Aside from that nothing else had changed. However, Lachlan certainly did like the benefits to wielding the weapons. Although it was more than a foot taller than Lachlan the buffs he got from it were amazing, to say the least.

He would be fine with either of effect 1 or 2 by themselves. The increase was highly needed, especially now that he seems to be running into evolved beasts more often. As the reduction in fatigue, that was useful for these long journeys.

However, because effect 3 was sealed he didn't exactly know how to work with it. He obviously knew how he could use the sudden attraction to him to his advantage, it was just learning how to utilise the effect.

Smiling widely Lachlan swung the sword around swiftly, the blade whistled through the wind. He did it a few times, twisting his body around as he followed through with the swing.

Walking outside the room he ran up to one of the pillars and swung at it with his full might. The impact broke the pillar apart, completely shattering it from the inside out.

Lachlan hadn't realised yet but he has had a ma.s.sive increase in his strength especially with the new broadsword in his hands. Lifting the broadsword up before sticking it in the ground he saw a reflection of him.

He gave his reflection to handguns before winking at it. 'a.n.a.lyse'

--------------------------------------------------------

Looking at his stats Lachlan quickly realised some of them weren't as high as they would be since he wasn't wielding the sword at the moment. He also had to give it to himself, the decision about travelling the world became a truly good thing. They hadn't even been exploring for that long, they had so much more to do.

As for taming his third beast, he would do that soon, he felt the need to make sure it's a beast of worthy strength. As for whether or not he would go to Aaron's world to tame one there, he wasn't so certain about it. Although he does, really want a dragon.

Lachlan grabbed hold of the hilt and lifted the broadsword up, he walked over to the room holding the Statue of Perseverance and peeked in. Everyone else was still in there, Chloe and Joe made it past the halfway point while Georgia, Phoebe, and Zoe were still lagging behind. They were just about to reach the halfway point, the very minimum bar that they set.

"All of you need to make it to the end! There are some cool weapons we can use but one of the requirements is to reach the end of this trial!" Lachlan shouted at them all to give them a bit more motivation. He then waved around the broadsword like it was a small stick, gave a thumbs up before returning to the room to see if he missed anything.

Looking around he couldn't find anything else of value, but he didn't give up. He searched the walls for any secret rooms or pa.s.sageways but still came up with nothing. He sighed deeply before walking out and going to the room next to it.

His face changed to that of shock when he saw what was in it, it was truly the jackpot. There were a dozen armour stands, every single one of them had a wonderful set of armour on it. In the centre of the room was a piece of armour that stood out the most, it was golden.

'That sorta looks similar to the king's armour' Lachlan thought back to the story they were told not to long ago. 'a.n.a.lyse'

--------------------------------------------------------

Name: King's War Armour (Sealed)

Description: A man-made armour set created with G.o.dstone, blessed by the G.o.d of war. This armour set is fit for a brave and n.o.ble king, leading his army through hordes of enemies. To equip this mighty armour one must have the perseverance of a king, 200 in strength, and 150 in agility.

Effect 1 (Pa.s.sive). Increases strength, vitality, agility, and willpower by 30 points.

Effect 2 (Pa.s.sive). Reduces fatigue by 50%.

Effect 3 (Sealed). A move to naturally raise the morale of all subordinates

--------------------------------------------------------

'd.a.m.n' Lachlan couldn't help but admire the piece of armour for a few minutes. He just stood in front of it, staring at its golden l.u.s.tre. However, there was one thing that annoyed Lachlan, one thing that he couldn't help but be furious over.

The armour was too big for him. It seemed the king was at least 2 - 2.5 metres, the armour set was absolutely ma.s.sive. Although Lachlan could easily fit inside it there wasn't much he could do aside from that.

Lachlan then looked towards an armour set to the side, it had a matte black finish to it. Lachlan walked up to it and felt it out, the armour was ice cold on the outside but warm on the inside. It didn't have a helmet for it, but for what it was, it certainly protected all other vital parts.

But that wasn't the thing that attracted Lachlan towards this piece of armour. The reason he was so into it was that it could actually fit him properly. At the very least, a lot better than what the King's Armour could.

'a.n.a.lyse'

--------------------------------------------------------

Name: Meteorite Armour (Soul Bound)

Effect 2 (Pa.s.sive). Reduces fatigue by 70%.

Effect 3 (Pa.s.sive). Able to sense any hostility focused towards the wearer.

Effect 4 (Sealed). An ability to detect spatial disturbances.

--------------------------------------------------------

'Now this is what I was talking about' Lachlan smiled widely as he tapped the armour, the armour gave off a soft clang sound from the tap. 'I'm going to be wearing you for a long time.'

He took one piece of armour off that stand at a time and put it on himself. Once he was finished he was fully set, he had a ma.s.sive broadsword to attack and a great piece of armour to protect himself. He moved around a bit before the armour abruptly expanded, then, like elastic and tightened and stuck on Lachlan.

"Whoa, now that is nice," Lachlan said out loud.

"What the h.e.l.l do you have on right now?" Simon walked around the corner and noticed what Lachlan was wearing. He then looked around the room and noticed a lot more armours, his mouth agape as he looked at the centre one.

Walking up to it he placed his hand on it. "Now this, this is an armour worthy of being worn by me."

His ego still hasn't gone done, nor will it go down any time soon. Lachlan sighed and shook his head before asking, "So you didn't walk into any of the other rooms?"

"I saw a statue in two of them and yeah, I ain't going through that ever again," Simon complained.

"What, afraid that you'll be beaten by everyone else again in those as well," Lachlan swiftly replied.

Simon pouted and crossed his arms. "No, I just don't think I should do them at this moment. I mean seriously, when we bring this whole thing up to the island I'll have all the time in the world to give those a try."

He brushed it off while chuckling faintly.

"Yep, yep, keep telling yourself that," Lachlan responded.

"I will," Simon said while pouting again with his crossed arms. "So is there any special about these armour sets I should know about? You know, maybe whether or not they're going to suddenly throw me into some sort of trial as well?"
