No, wait, are these two sets?”
At first glance, Lin Rui thought the item in the box was a ch manufactured by humans, but upon closer inspection, he realized it was not.
This cha’s design was very similar to human-made chas, and one could even recognize traces of the ‘Sacred Body’ model 7 parent and child cha in its form.
However, many of its parts had been replaced with ‘fish scale armor’, which was made of tal threads woven into ropes that linked individual armor plates together.
This was because the casting technology on Tianji Star was not up to par, unable to produce large tal armor pieces.
But don’t underestimate this fish scale armor; the plates were painstakingly crafted by skilled artisans and combined with Tianji Star’s unique runic crafting technique, its defense was actually extrely powerful, far surpassing the Federation’s die-casting technology and tal printing techniques.
This thod of casting was too dependent on an individual’s technical ability and could not be mass-produced and popularized.
...
However, what truly surprised him was that there were not one but two sets of Heavenly Demon Dragon Armors inside!
—Behind the taller dragon armor ahead was another set of dragon armor, smaller in size.
“This is actually a set of Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor, combining the skeletal remains and so armor left by a Heavenly Demon cha, crafted into a parent and child suit.”
Zhuang Mingyue saw the surprised expression on Lin Rui’s face and couldn’t help but curve her lips slightly, “ng Sister once killed a fifth realm Heavenly Demon from beyond our domain.
Though his combat power was not impressive, he had a powerful protective demon, as well as a seven-realm standard parent and child cha.
After ng Sister killed them, she seized most of the cha’s body, and this ti she asked an exceptional chanic from the ‘chanical God Temple’ to help, using the body of the parent and child cha as a base and combining it with the materials you sent, to craft this set of Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor for you.”
As Zhuang Mingyue spoke, she gave Lin Rui’s companion Blood Blade Lady a sidelong glance, “You might not have heard of a parent and child cha before, and I don’t quite understand it myself; it seems to be a special type of cha that shares the sa engine and such.
I heard from Sister that the power system of the parent and child cha she confiscated was complete, which is the strongest part of the dragon armor.
You see, the Heavenly Demons’ chas are generally stronger than ours; even though made of tal, they commonly possess a powerful self-healing ability, but even more impressive is their propulsion system, the precision of which is awe-inspiring.”
Zhuang Mingyue spoke with a sowhat unusual tone; she had never imagined ng Weiyun would value Lin Rui to such an extent.
To enhance the combat capability of Lin Rui and his servant, she had even gone out of her way to ask the chanical God Temple to make this set of parent and child dragon armor for Lin Rui.
—That was the chanical God Temple!
A force that was decades ahead of the Great Song in chanical technology, proclaiming to be able to craft the ‘Abyss of Machinery’!
“So it’s like that, there are chas like this among the Heavenly Demons?” Lin Rui nodded slightly as if he grasped the gravity of the situation, though his mind was clear as a mirror.
He didn’t know much about the ‘Sacred Body’ model 7 parent and child cha, but he was aware of its characteristics.
It was a cha developed by the Federal ‘Knights of the Holy Order’ specifically for those aberrant walkers with protective demons, both parent and child chas sharing a nuclear fusion engine, with energy transmitted through quantum leap technology.
Before the Earth Federation imposed controls on cha technology, this model of parent and child cha was very popular.
This was because ‘Sacred Body’ was very cost-effective!
It only needed a little more money on top of one set of cha to exchange for the combat power of two.
Furthermore, most demons were of low intelligence and had trouble adapting to such technological weapons.
In such cases, aberrant walkers could also assist from the parent cha side, helping these demons control the cha in battle.
Indeed, Lin Rui had not anticipated ng Weiyun making such a pair for him; he was both shocked and delighted.
At this mont, Zhuang Mingyue threw a jade token to Lin Rui, “This is the command token for the Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor.
You just need to drop your blood essence into the token and slightly refine it to use it, but unfortunately—”
Zhuang Mingyue was also very curious to witness the divine might of the two sets of dragon armor made from the skeleton of Sacred Body model 7 and composed of many eighth-realm materials.
It was said that the Artifact Refiner had considered Lin Rui’s weak cultivation and, to prevent him from being unable to bear the load, had built it to the standard of the sixth realm.
The dragon armor’s overload capacity limit was the sixth realm.
However, the defensive capability of the two sets of armor definitely belonged to the eighth-realm standard, and the overall rune array level and combined capabilities should also have reached the emperor rank of the sixth realm.
The pity was, Lin Rui couldn’t yet control this kind of ‘Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor’.
To carry such armor, one must have a fully ford Golden Core inside their body, capable of generating ‘Dragon Essence’.
It was unknown when Lin Rui would be able to reach this level of cultivation.
Lin Rui, however, did not hesitate to drop his blood into the jade token.
He had already sensed sothing inside that was connected with his bloodline, calling out to him from afar.
Wang Sen had arrived with his retinue of personal soldiers, driving their horse-drawn carriage.
Lin Rui invited Zhuang Mingyue to ride in the carriage as they headed to the Lanyue Building, the best-reviewed place in the city, for the banquet.
By this ti, several high-ranking officials headed by Li Changguo of Wang City had also heard the news and hastened to the scene.
The influence of a sixth-rank Deputy Imperial Censor was quite significant, with responsibilities heavier than a local defense commandant.
Moreover, Zhuang Mingyue arrived on an official boat, and the grandeur of her disembarking was such that they could not pretend not to see it.
Several people had already heard the news that Deputy Envoy Zhuang brought so many of the Imperial Dragon Capital Commandants back to Shazhou, preparing the ground for another important official from the Imperial City Division.
The imperial court not only wanted to bring the Shazhou governor to the capital to answer for his cris but also intended to thoroughly clean up Shazhou and investigate all the unlawful affairs of the Governor of Shazhou and his associates since they had taken office.
This had little to do with Li Changguo and the other two; they had no real connection to the Governor of Shazhou, but they dared not take it lightly—in case the officials from the Imperial City Division decided to nitpick.
At this mont, not to ntion County Magistrate Qin Xia and County Deputy Dong Linghui, even Li Changguo, who was about to be transferred to the capital to take up the post of a fifth-grade Imperial Censor of the Palace, did not dare to be negligent.
They say to respect the monk for the Buddha’s sake, and it was rumored that this Defense Envoy Lin Rui had already been confird to take charge of the Gestapo Bureau in the capital—what a status, what power!
But every ti Li Changguo looked at Lin Rui, he felt a bitter taste in his heart.
He was not deaf or blind; he naturally knew what the citizens of the city were saying about him and Lin XII.
Li Changguo was extrely frustrated, feeling as though Lin XII had stolen the fruits of his labor.
In fact, since he had taken office, he had abolished many of the malicious policies left by his predecessor; it just so happened that this scoundrel took office at a good ti.
The citizens only saw that since Lin XII had taken office as the Defense Envoy, everything in Wang City county had started to improve, but they did not see the effort behind it.
However, Li Changguo couldn’t say that Lin XII had not contributed to the peace and tranquility of Wang City County.
Although the master and servant pair’s cultivation was not as high as his, and their ability to sense was exceptionally strong, they were exceedingly accurate in finding demons and demon cultivators.
Most of the nurous demons and demon cultivators inside the city had died at their hands.
But Lin XII’s behavior in claiming rewards was quite unsightly.
So of the demons that Lin XII killed actually earned him double rewards from both the county governnt and the Imperial City Division.
As the dignified Defense Envoy, it was sothing he dare do!
Wang Sen, who was drinking with Zhang Tianchang and the others downstairs, felt chills down his spine, a sense of foreboding.
Since coming from the docks, he noticed that Zhuang Mingyue would occasionally glance his way.
Wang Sen realized that this woman still suspected him of being an outsider Heavenly Demon, perhaps even considering when to administer a Heavenly Demon Test on him.
With a deep breath, Wang Sen knew all he needed was for his true form to integrate two more components, and he could complete the initial form of the Black Tortoise Suit,
Under the effect of heteromorph assimilation, his heteromorph could also possess a primary Black Tortoise Sacred Body.
Lin Rui had also said that he would slightly slow down the trip to the capital to support him fully during this ti.
Wang Sen originally did not want to take any more money from Lin Rui, but now he had no choice.
He must pass the Heavenly Demon Test before entering the capital.
As long as he had the primary Black Tortoise Sacred Body and the cooperation of a high-level spellcaster from afar, he stood a good chance of passing the imperial court’s Heavenly Demon Test, providing he did not encounter a National Guardian Dragon.
anwhile, in the upstairs private room, Zhuang Mingyue respectfully raised her glass to Lin Xi, who was attending the banquet with her, “It turns out that my younger sister is the orphaned daughter of the Zhou family, my apologies!”
She actually took the initiative to pick up her cup and toast Lin Xi, “The affairs of the Zhou family have also reached my ears in the capital.
Three generations of loyal and good Zhou family mbers have been praised by everyone; Imperial Censor Zhou even died arguing for the people and beca famous throughout the land!
It is unthinkable that after the death of Imperial Censor Zhou, the Zhou family was bullied to this extent by a group of villains.
When the officials in the capital heard of this matter, all were indignant.
I, too, was filled with righteous indignation, only regretting that I was not in Wang City at the ti; otherwise, I would never have allowed those thieves from the Burning Saber Sect to behave so outrageously!”
Her words made Li Changguo and the others visibly uncomfortable.
At that ti, they were all troubled by the magic dragon and were reluctant to deal with the matter, even less willing to offend the figure behind the Burning Saber Sect.
In the end, no one expected the Burning Saber Sect to act so ruthlessly.
Li Changguo also touched his nose, knowing that his demotion was due to dissatisfaction from above with the incident.
Although he had managed to join the ranks of the Imperial Censors through his family’s efforts, his political resources had actually been exhausted, especially since the people at the Censorate would likely look at him unfavorably, anticipating a difficult path ahead for him.
Lin Xi also lifted her cup with a grateful expression, “How dare I?
Envoy Zhuang is known for her righteous and courageous heart.
If Envoy Zhuang had been there at the ti, would the Burning Saber Sect have dared to offend my Zhou family?”
She did not show a friendly face to the three officials, and her words were laden with barbs and obvious mockery.
As ti passed, Lin Xi beca more and more aware of the weight of the identity arranged for her by Lin Rui.
Wang Sen, now a powerful expert of the Four Realms, could only stay downstairs with Zhang Tianchang and the others, while she, a woman who had just nearly reached the threshold of the Four Realms, had beco a valued guest of these high officials from the court.
Zhuang Mingyue grew more fond of this ‘Zhou Yunxi’, lanting internally that it was a pity the Zhou family’s unceasing dragon legacy had been destroyed; otherwise, with this girl’s background, she could have easily joined the Imperial City Division as an official.
Either their own Zhuang family or Lin XII could have recomnded her.
The First Divine Envoy was particularly fond of those with backgrounds like Zhou Yunxi’s.
After three generations of loyalty and integrity, they had suffered wrongs and lost everything due to the emperor’s wanton actions.
For the First Divine Envoy to bring Zhou Yunxi into the imperial court and make use of her would be the greatest satire of the emperor.
While the guests at Lanyue Building enjoyed their cups amidst the din, exchanging toasts and reveling in rrint, the Sect Master of the Burning Saber Sect, ‘Xuanhuo Saber’ Qi Yan, was swiftly traveling over the water tens of miles away on the Tianxiang River.
Upon reaching the river near Jinggang, he looked upstream and saw a governnt boat at the dock.
At the bow of the boat sat an old man with white hair in a ruddy coat.
His face was gaunt, his skin sun-darkened, his features well-defined, and his white brows swept across like a broom.
He sat behind a writing table, pouring drinks for himself, with an imposing and solemn deanor.
His gaze was as sharp and piercing as a blade, and he looked towards Qi Yan as well.
Qi Yan recognized him—it was the forr Governor of Shazhou, Yuan Chengkai.
