What?
Armor... design map?
Hmm? You guys don’t even have this stuff? Are you kidding , giving up so many vegetables for a re armor design map?
Lin Yue thought these people would demand "Give us more vegetables!" or "We want bread!"
But, it’s actually this?
Indeed, quite unexpected.
He, puzzled, opened the trading mall and typed in "armor".
However, the search results were empty!
Hmm? What’s going on? Is this item not for sale? What about the survival points mall?
Searching again, still nothing!
Ah, this...
This seems like a completely unexpected developnt, why?
Initially, he assud things like armor should be standard equipnt, but now it seems that’s not the case.
He opened group chats and world channels, and Lin Yue conducted another search.
The results were either complaints about lacking armor or so attempts at making armor that were completely ineffective.
Among the remaining people, is there not a single person who used to be a craftsman or carpenter? Even the Lizardn have layers of wooden armor...
Wait a minute.
Could it be that it’s not that there is no armor, but those who have the armor technology are unwilling to share it?
Like Lily Kalahao, Jia Yunzhan, and Caspar, the largest refugee villages, Lin Yue believes they could not possibly lack armored equipnt!
Technical monopoly...
Yes, it’s technical monopoly.
Lin Yue thought carefully, it seed that when Levik attacked his shelter, when Xing Lingfeng, Fei Yue, and Liu Kai ca to assist, Xing Lingfeng and one leader from a refugee village were wearing armor?
Yet these people left no ssages or asked questions about armor, as if the issue never existed.
Ironically, it was people like Fei Yue and so smaller refugee village folks asking about armor and helts, but these questions were quickly drowned by other discussions.
So that’s how it is.
Armor actually greatly increases the survival rate of survivors.
Indeed, whether hunting mutant creatures in the Otherworld, exploring Secret Realms and encountering monsters, or fighting with Lizardn and beggars in the Underground Ruins, armor can be quite effective.
But, this stuff isn’t widespread.
Just like the steel repeating crossbow alloy tactical crossbow he has, only a few people possess them, the vast majority rely on system-provided knives, spears, bows, and similar items, and face mutant creatures and Lizardn with wisdom and experience to bridge the gap.
"Armor design map, alright."
Currently, he only has the wooden armor design map, which was found in a treasure chest. Later it had its quality enhanced and helped him through early hardships.
But after acquiring bone armor, it was completely forgotten in the corner, as it beca irrelevant with stronger equipnt available.
However, the wooden armor’s sturdiness is a problem, unable to resist the claws and fangs of mutant creatures and monsters, nor the upgraded attacks of the Lizardn.
Even giving it to Fei Yue and the others, it might not resist much damage.
Lin Yue went to the basent and found the dusty wooden armor in the corner, thought for a mont, and placed two iron blocks on it.
[Upgrade wooden armor to iron armor requires multipurpose upgrade design map X1]
Upgrade. Lin Yue didn’t hesitate.
Soon, in front of him appeared an iron armor more square and solid than the previous wooden armor.
Then, he used the high-precision research workstation to decompose it into a design map.
[You have obtained the iron armor design map!]
Hmm, it works.
Iron armor should be suitable for equipping Fei Yue’s refugee village, no big problem.
"Really? Domineering People, our strength is too weak, in the Secret Realm, if not for an unexpected event, we might have been wiped out."
Fei Yue was quite excited over there, surprised Lin Yue agreed to the proposal.
He initially didn’t have much hope.
This Secret Realm expedition, without the unforeseen incident, it would have been unlikely anyone would return from it.
The root cause is their inadequate strength, poor combat effectiveness, lacking weapons, almost no defensive equipnt.
Although ranking top five on the leaderboard, in terms of actual strength, they lag behind many refugee villages.
Weapon-wise, they mainly rely on iron spears, iron spear guns, iron knives, and bows. Looking up to Lin Yue’s various firearms like the survivors in other refugee villages. During the last Levik attack on Lin Yue’s shelter, they rged forces with Xing Lingfeng and Liu Kai’s refugee villagers, witnessing the equipnt gap firsthand.
Afterward, he consciously made sure that the main combat force in the refugee village practiced archery with bows, also trained people to throw iron spears, but even so, their defense still lacked greatly.
Helt? They never found a design map, armor? Still the sa.
They do have wooden shields, but honestly, shields are useless at short and close range.
Indeed, in this Otherworld, even a scratch on the arm is extrely fatal!
This Secret Realm trip, if not for the "dragon" seen by the team mbers drawing away the monsters surrounding them, perhaps nobody would have survived.
Protective gear is crucial, indeed far more crucial than weapons.
If with battle armor, even close combat with enemies wouldn’t be fearful anymore.
So upon obtaining a large number of asphalt surfaces, Fei Yue made the decision to ask Lin Yue for this sowhat inappropriate request.
He genuinely expected rejection from Lin Yue but was surprised when Lin Yue agreed easily.
"Your strength is too weak, then it becos even harder to find resources, this request isn’t a big deal."
"Domineering People, we... the whole refugee village people are grateful for your great kindness! We’ll serve you with our lives!"
Lin Yue shivered reading this, goosebumps all over.
What the heck.
If you’re so weak, it’s causing issues for too.
Great, a bunch of weaklings going into the Secret Realm to collect stuff, then all dying there, failing to find anything, who will I get these things from?
Did you not consider?
If these people stay weak, in the future when he acquires rare materials or desperately needs various alloys, they’d be unreliable.
Rather than that, it’s better to make them stronger.
But in moderation, shouldn’t overdo it.
Make them equally strong as and they might beco disobedient.
Fei Yue on the other side, was speechless once more, feeling it was great to have Lin Yue as the Domineering People, agreeing with no hesitation.
However, he also rembered sothing very important.
