Chapter 1034: Research

“Majesty Gunther, these things are all valuable to me!” Abel smiled and said.

He was not lying motionless, but King Gunther did not believe him. After all, the dwarves did acc.u.mulate large amounts of ancient objects and studied them.

King Gunther was certain that no one knew more about ancient objects than the dwarves, not even the elves.

When the elves were locking themselves up, the dwarves were hard at work digging up sights throughout the continent.

Abel turned towards the third object marked as useful. The battle puppet. It was very similar to the dwarves’ one, but its value lay in its material.

It was made of ancient alloy which the technology to make them was lost today.

Abel was interested, but he did not make his decision.

He could choose 3 objects, and he already chose 2.

He turned to the last object, the dimensional car, which looked more like a rectangle box than a car. Wheels were nowhere to be seen.

So, Abel was left with the choice between the dimensional car, battle puppet, and the locked up box.

“King Gunther, I’ll choose this!” Abel finally pointed at that mysterious locked-up box and said.

Obtaining those other 2 objects was not impossible, looking at the att.i.tude of King Gunther. They seemed like they were for display anyway, so Abel might be able to exchange them in the future.

They then left the inventory. Abel took the locked-up box and reflection system with him while the battle fort would be taken care of by the dwarves and sent to his place in the potion maker camp.

The following 5 days, he stayed in the dwarves and locked himself up in an alchemy room.

The dwarves gathered 100 portions of the sky s.h.i.+p’s core materials. Of course, he couldn’t successfully turn all 100 portions into sky s.h.i.+p cores, but he still turned 40 of them in.

Just like they agreed, the dwarves would give him 10 skys.h.i.+ps as soon as possible and then give him 1 sky s.h.i.+p per month until the cores were used out.

Of course, Abel would also need to keep supplying the dwarves with sky s.h.i.+p cores as long as the dwarves provided him the materials.

Abel’s visit to the dwarves deepened their relations.h.i.+p once again. Since his metallurgy skill was far superior to any dwarf metallurgist, his name began to gather fame among the dwarves.

Especially that golden longevity potion, which made the dwarves recognize him as a true friend.

Abel returned to his place in the potion maker camp. The battle fort had already arrived, and it was placed next to the one which transformed into a metal castle.

He ignited the protection circle and all the barrier circles in his yard. He couldn’t wait to take a closer look at his rewards.

“Commander spirit, how do I open this box?” Abel took out the locked-up box and looked at it in detail. Finally, he gave up and asked the commander spirit instead.

“Headmaster, you can only open it with this special method!” The commander spirit transferred some directions to Abel.

It was a complicated one. There were 120 moves in total.

“Commander spirit, what is the purpose of this thing in the ancient time?” Abel was not surprised that the commander spirit could open the box. If not, it would not have told him it was useful.

“Headmaster, it is used mainly for preserving important military resources!” The commander spirit replied.

It was a storage device pa.s.sed down to individual fighters, so they had a unique way of opening it.

However, for a high-level spirit, it had permission to open all of them.

Abel followed the moves and pressed on the box. Finally, neatly aligned horizontal and vertical lines emerged on the surface.

It soon divided itself into little squares, exposing the storage s.p.a.ce within.

It was not a big s.p.a.ce. Only around the size of 2 fists, but it was filled with top-level gems.

Disappointed. Gems were definitely great for other professionals, but they were basically useless for someone who could combine them like Abel.

“Thats not right!” He placed his hand in and found something that didn’t feel like a gem.

“No way!” He found a trapezoid shape object. One he knew very well. It was a rune.

However, it was not a low-rank rune. It was a truly high-level one. The 28#lo with the ability to increase 20% double hit rate and +5% Lightning resistance.

That 20% double hit rate increase was definitely something advanced in this world, but Abel was not planning to waste it like this.

It was a 28# Lo, a high-level rune that he almost couldn’t combine himself.

The information for this rune appeared in his mind along with strings of rune words.

He picked out one he could make—the ‘fort.i.tude.’

Fort.i.tude

20% Chance To Cast Level 15 Chilling Armor when Struck

+25% Faster Cast Rate

+300% Enhanced Damage

+200% Enhanced Defense

+15 Defense

+X To Life (Based on Character Level)

Replenish Life +7

+5% To Maximum Lightning Resist

All Resistances +25-30 (varies)

Damage Reduced By 7

12% Damage Taken Goes To Mana

+1 To Light Radius

The required runes were El, Sol, Dol, Lo. The other 3 were not hard to find, and he could even make it himself.

This way, the rune word armor Fort.i.tude could become his. The scariest thing about it was the +300% enhanced damage. It would basically work wonders during a close-range battle.

Abel placed the 28# Lo rune into his holy portal bag. He was not planning to use it just yet. He was planning to give this super amour to his mad knight once he resurrected it.

He then took out the illusory system, which looked like an armed guard.

“Commander spirit, how do I use this thing?” Of course, he would ask the commander spirit.

“Headmaster, you can ignite the reflection system with your headmaster badge, but before that, you need to recharge it!” The commander spirit replied.

Abel looked around at the system according to the instruction given by the commander spirit and opened an energy sock with some special method.

The gems inside the socket were all broken after these years. Unless they were top-level gems that could regenerate themselves, low-level gems would not last.

He dumped out the pieces and installed 2 top-level pure gems into it.

He then placed his headmaster badge on the reflection system, and a white glow emerged. The spikes within it retreated, and he put the thing on his arm. Since the Horadric cube had turned into a mark, it wouldn’t affect it.

He buckled it in, and suddenly, he felt a sharp pain. The 4 spikes penetrated his skin.

He immediately wanted to take the thing off, but he knew the commander spirit would not hurt him. He was a headmaster. All the commander spirit could do was to obey him.

He soon sensed the system absorbing his blood, and the spikes retreated again afterward. Those spikes were obviously thinner than the original ones, so he stopped bleeding in no time as the guard pressed down on his muscles.

Suddenly, he felt like he gained a sense of connection with the reflection system, just like his beasts.

At the same time, he received the instruction to use the reflection system. There were 2 modes, on and off, and it could be controlled by the power of the will.

“On!” Abel connected with it through the power of the will and mumbled.

Soon, a silhouette of a man appeared in front of him. It looked just like himself, even with the same dragon-druid energy.

“Amazing!” Abel gasped.

He reached his hand towards his reflection, but it went straight through. This reflection was basically just a group of energy.

He began to move this reflection with his power of the will. Just like a puppet, it was totally under his command.

After some testing, he realized this reflection could only be used to confuse his enemies. It did not have any actual fighting power.

Still, he was surprised. As long as no one touched him, he could be at any place he wanted.

Also, if he could successfully confuse his enemies during a battle and make them hesitate to attack, he would be at an advantage.

He looked at the reflection system in his arm, but he was not planning to take it off. He didn’t want to get spiked again, and this thing was a lifesaver nevertheless.

Finally, he arrived at that intact battle fort. All the facilities were still there, so he could not see the base, and he didn’t know how to open the energy socket.

Maybe this was the reason why the dwarves gave up on studying it. At least some of the normal ones had an opened energy socket, and they could ignite the basic invisible ability when energy was put into it.

Even someone who was familiar with battle forts could not find the energy socket.

“Commander spirit, how can i open the energy socket of this battle fort?” Of course, there was only one way to find out.

“Headmaster, please follow these instructions!” The commander spirit sent over a guide.

Abel arrived at the operation room of the battle fort and found a hold under a seat. Unlike the other ones, this was where the energy socket was located.

Abel directly dumped 2000 top-level gems into the hole and closed the base. Afterward, the fort began to move like a monster awakening after thousands of years of slumber.

“First time ignition, confirming the ident.i.ty of the user!” A message appeared on his headmaster badge without the commander spirit’s command.

“The prestigious headmaster, you now have full permission over this battle fort please give it a name!” A message from the commander spirit also arrived.

Abel thought for a moment and said, “Fire tooth!”

“The prestigious headmaster, Fire tooth will be at your service!” Fire tooth spirit replied.

It was a truly brand new battle fort. The Commander spirit was not lying. This thing really has never been ignited before.
